Daughter of the royal palace

Chapter 76
The hearts of all the female relatives in the house trembled, and Aunt Lan's eyes widened in shock, her legs softened, and she knelt down.

"Wang... my lord!" Her lips twitched, trembling as she wanted to say something.Touching the icy eyes of King Zhongyi, all arguments seemed so pale.In a panic, she cast her eyes for help on the still calm princess, hoping that she could save herself.But she was disappointed in the end, the princess had been sitting calmly, spinning the prayer beads in her hand, without even looking at her.

Aunt Lan knew that the princess had abandoned her.She closed her eyes, swallowing all the grief and despair.In the ear, the indifferent voice of King Zhongyi continued.

"Compared to perilla, you are more proficient in spices."

Aunt Lan trembled again, and Ling Xiwan suddenly said something.

"Aunt Lan has been in the mansion for 14 years." These words were thoughtless, but King Zhongyi stared.There are many heirs in the palace, but there is only one male, and the other seven are daughters.The youngest, Ling Xizhen, is just 14 years old this year.In other words, since Aunt Lan entered the mansion, no child has been born.Thinking back to the previous entanglement, even though King Zhongyi didn't know how to fight in the house, he understood the tricks.

His face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and his fingers creaked.

"You threatened Zisu to give Han'er sterilization medicine, didn't you?" King Zhongyi's words were more like an interrogation than an inquiry.

Aunt Lan bit her lip, she couldn't help but feel hatred in her heart when she saw that the princess was still unmoved.

"The concubine has served the lord for more than ten years, and the lord has condemned the concubine without asking or investigating?"

Zisu had already collapsed in the arms of King Zhongyi when Zhilan desperately said that she was being persecuted, with a brocade handkerchief covering her lips, sobbing softly.Such Wei Que's appearance made King Zhongyi feel even more uncomfortable. Thinking of wronging her just now, he felt guilty again, and his disgust towards Aunt Lan deepened.

"Zisu used to be your maid, but now she is your equal. You were jealous, and you got along with her long ago. In addition, you have humiliated Han'er many times. You are afraid that she will retaliate in the future, so you want to use Zisu Borrowing swords to kill people, so as to avoid future troubles."

"Hehe..." Aunt Lan smiled mockingly, "Since that's the case, why didn't the concubine poison the third lady directly, wouldn't it be more once and for all?"

However, Ruoxue sneered at this time, "The servant girl and Ruoyu were specially trained by the empress to serve the young lady. They have been proficient in various poisons since they were young. The food and clothing of the young lady have been carefully inspected by me and Ruoyu. Ruoyu and I learned about poison in order to prevent this day. But you people are so vicious that you actually drugged the lady to sterilize her. If a woman loses the right to be a mother, it is tantamount to a death sentence for her. " Ruoxue scolded in a low voice, her fists clenched tightly, her eyes filled with coldness and hatred.

"I only hate that I only learned how to defend against drugs, but I didn't expect that you would use such insidious means to deal with a 16-year-old girl. It's really unconscionable."

Ruoxue said that she was filled with righteous indignation, her chest heaved up and down because of anger, obviously she was extremely angry.

The princess took a deep look at her, and what she said was really good.Especially that sentence, if a woman loses the right to be a mother.These words stabbed the wound in King Zhongyi's heart.The Queen of the Year...

She lowered her eyes and remained silent.Everything was going according to her expectations, and she didn't have to say or do anything.

Sure enough, after hearing what Ruoxue said, King Zhongyi suddenly scolded his eyes angrily.He let go of Zisu, and looked coldly at Aunt Lan who was kneeling on the ground, with some sarcasm in his tone.

"What do you want to justify? You know that Zisu is kind and weak. If you can control her, you can use her as a pawn without any scruples, and push her out to take the blame after the incident." He looked at Aunt Lan with mocking and contemptuous eyes. . "Lan Suxin, I always thought you were a woman who knew the general situation, but I didn't expect you to be so vicious. You dared to attack Han'er. You should be lucky that Han'er didn't fall into your hands today, otherwise you The Lan family will just wait for the family to be confiscated and wiped out."

As soon as King Zhongyi finished speaking, all the women in the palace gasped.Although Ling Xihan was only a princess, in this huge dynasty, there are countless people who are more valuable than her.Maybe so many people will be buried with her to die.But King Zhongyi's words were definitely not alarmist.How much the empress likes Ling Xihan, everyone in court and the circle of ladies in the capital knows.If Ling Xihan was really persecuted to the point of being sterilized by these women today.Combined with her own experience, the queen will definitely not let it go.So no one dared to doubt his words, and no one dared to take any chances.

As for Ling Xiyun and the others, apart from being afraid, they became even more jealous, jealous of Ling Xihan's good life.Not only does she have such a good background, but even the empress protects her so much, how can she not make people go crazy with envy?
Regarding King Zhongyi's words of defense, Ling Xihan didn't show much expression.It's just that when he heard that Zisu was kind and weak, he frowned slightly, and there was a hint of sarcasm at the corner of his mouth.Zisu is weak and kind?Hehe, apart from the concubine, this Zisu is probably the most scheming person in this palace.

Ling Xihan couldn't help but doubt in her heart, didn't her father win consecutive civil and military champions back then?Didn't you talk about Kai Kai when you first entered the court?Isn't it wise, wise and resourceful?Why are you so confused now?That's right, if she hadn't been so confused, how could she have been persecuted by her concubine and aunt for so many years without knowing it?If he hadn't been so confused, how could he have let Ling Xiwan's one-sided words and wronged her that day?

A man, he only cares about his career, so he doesn't take care of the pickling activities in the inner courtyard.

Aunt Lan's face had already turned pale, her pupils were frightened, and she forcibly calmed down after a while.

"Why did the prince blackmail Zisu for being a concubine?" She turned her eyes to Zisu who was leaning in the arms of the prince, holding a handkerchief to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, her eyes were full of sarcasm and hatred.

"What's more, who in the palace doesn't understand that Aunt Zi is the most important person in the prince's heart. Even if she wants the stars in the sky, the prince can pick them off for her. What ability does the concubine have to blackmail her? What can I use to blackmail her?"

She questioned them one by one, but King Zhongyi was left speechless, his face pale with embarrassment.All the women below were gnashing their teeth, staring at the pretentiously weak Zi Su with frosty eyes, wishing to tear her into pieces.Perhaps Zi Su noticed their gazes, and trembled in fear.

King Zhongyi's eyes sharpened, and those women immediately lowered their heads, and they could scold Zisu all over the place in their hearts.

Ling Xihan didn't speak, just stood there indifferently, no matter what, her father had to give her an explanation for today's matter.

During the silence, Zhilan suddenly raised her head, and shouted in a hissing voice: "You arrested Miss's parents as a threat, and Miss has no choice but to drug Third Miss."
