Chapter 182 Self-Innocence
"Ranran, stop messing around, let's turn big things into small things and turn them into nothing. Why bother to disturb the peace of the inner palace and His Majesty?" Lin Xiaoqian advised, "For you alone, how will it end when so many people are alarmed?" ?”

"Father, you can't say that. If it's a big fight, if there are cult members infiltrating the inner palace, who will be responsible for the chaos of 20 years ago? It's not a pity for me to die alone, but it's considered death. I can't die worthless, at least I should use my life to find out those villains who have ulterior motives and stir up trouble."

Lin Siran's righteousness is awe-inspiring, and his words are sonorous and powerful, and they are resounding.

Concubine Zheng Gui never thought that Lin Bianran, a weak-looking girl, would have such courage and courage. She realized that Lin Bianran was different from those women she had dealt with before. The difficulty of removing the resemblance is not low.

Concubine Zheng looked at the emperor nervously, but the emperor looked at Lin Bianran, with some approval and some doubts in his eyes.

This made Concubine Zheng even more uneasy.

"Your Majesty, this is the critical time for the selection of beautiful women. If there is a big fight, I'm afraid there will be panic and complaints." Zheng Guifei persuaded.

The emperor nodded and said: "It is true that it is not appropriate to go to war, but we have to investigate clearly."

The emperor's words were really kind.

Lin Siran was not satisfied, and Concubine Zheng was even more dissatisfied.

"Your Majesty, how do you think to find out?" Zheng Guifei asked.

The emperor looked at Lin Siran and said, "Since Miss Lin refuses to admit that this puppet is yours, and believes that someone planted it, then I will give you a chance to prove your innocence by yourself, and you don't have to go to the Inner Court Office." Alright, I'll give you one day, if you can't find enough strong evidence to prove your innocence, then I will have to wrong you to enter the Inner Court Division and be interrogated."

Concubine Zheng's eyes lit up, and she said with great satisfaction, "Your Majesty, this is a good idea."

She was sure that Lin Siran would not be able to find any good way to prove her innocence.

Lin Siran knew that the emperor was testing her.

The emperor also hesitated between killing her and keeping her. Although he had given up his plan to kill her before and planned to send her to be a nun, but now a puppet appeared, and Lin Siran was pushed into the center of the whirlpool again. I was also a little uneasy in my heart, and I couldn't help feeling that Lin Siran was a right and wrong person.

The emperor didn't like right and wrong people, especially when he brought a right and wrong person to him.

He is no longer the young man who was willing to fight against the whole world for a woman. After going through vicissitudes, the emperor's heart has become much colder. For him now, the most important thing is still what he holds in his hands. The imperial power and country.

But to firmly grasp power and govern the world well, the most unruly thing is his heart first.

Lin Siran was too smart and too conspicuous. When such a woman entered the harem, it was like a drop of water falling into a frying pan, which would definitely disturb the temporary balance of the harem.

The harem is related to the former court, and if the harem is in chaos, the former court is bound to cause disturbances.

But the emperor couldn't make up his mind to kill her.

He admired the girl's courage and intelligence, and of course... her familiar face.

So the emperor thought it over again and decided to stand on the sidelines and give Lin Siran a chance to survive, but he would not help her more. Whether she lives or dies depends on her own fate.

After seeing the emperor's thoughts, Lin Sizan also bowed down and said, "Yes, my lady, thank Your Majesty for your kindness!"

The emperor nodded slightly, once again applauding Lin Siran's sense of current affairs.

Lin Siran said: "Since Your Majesty wants the courtier's daughter to prove her innocence, please allow the courtier's daughter to interrogate Fuzi, and...the palace servants of Caiwei Palace, maybe some people have seen what Fuzi has done."

Lin Siran looked at Fuzi with slightly cold eyes.

Concubine Zheng also caressed the jade bracelet on her hand, and said: "It should be, after all Fuzi is a witness... Fuzi, you have to cooperate with Miss Lin and not lie, otherwise... neither your majesty nor this palace will forgive you ,Understand?"

Fuzi shivered for a moment, and said hastily: "Yes, this servant understands, and this servant will never dare to lie."

Lin Sizan knew that Fuzi probably held a lot of power in the hands of Concubine Zheng, and would definitely not cooperate with her, but it didn't matter, she knew how to deal with Fuzi.

Lin Sizan nodded lightly, stood up, and grabbed Fuzi's hand.

Fuzi was nervous, and quickly shrank back, trying to struggle.

"You...what are you going to do?"

Lin Sizan didn't return her, and directly opened her hand, and found that Fuzi's hand was clean, and looked at Fuzi's face and hair again.

"When did you start cleaning the courtyard?" Lin Siran asked a question that baffled everyone.

Fuzi felt that this question was not so difficult, so he said truthfully: "Yes... It was about a quarter after the young masters left Caiwei Palace."

"Then where did you start cleaning? How long did it take to clean before reaching my room?" Lin Sian continued to ask.

Fuzi thought for a while, and said: "The servants started cleaning from the outer courtyard, which took about half an hour, and then... then came to the inner courtyard, and cleaned for about a stick of incense."

Lin Siran nodded and asked, "When you entered my room, was the door open or closed?"

Fuzi hesitated for a moment, and said, "Yes...it's closed."

"Is there anyone who can prove that you have entered the house?" Lin Siran asked again.

Fuzi shook his head, and said: "If someone follows, the servant will not dare to go in, servant... the servant is really curious, so he entered the little master's room."

"Curiosity? What's there to be curious about? Could it be that you searched every room in Caiwei Palace because of your curiosity?" Lin Siran asked with a sneer, "Isn't this reason a bit ridiculous?"

"Servant... slave..." Fuzi stammered for a long time but couldn't come up with a convincing reason.

Lin Sizan asked again: "Okay, no matter why you entered my house and rummaged through my things, tell me, what did you do after you took that puppet? Be more detailed, it's only been so short It's impossible for you to forget the time?"

Fuzi glanced at Concubine Zheng hesitantly, but was cast coldly by Concubine Zheng, and hurriedly put aside, tremblingly said: "At that time, I thought this doll looked rather scary, and I suspected it was something evil. At that time, I was scared When I arrived, I wanted to find the nanny, but the nuns were all in the Hechang Garden, so the servant girl went to the Hechang Garden, met Sister Linlang, and then handed the puppet to Sister Linlang, and then... After that, the servant girl went back to Cai Wei Gong continued to work."

Lin Siran remained calm, and continued to ask: "Did you meet anyone on the way to Hechang Garden? Did anyone see you when you saw Lin Lang?"

"My servant... I don't remember, my servant was in a mess at the time, and I couldn't remember many things clearly." Fuzi was afraid of saying the wrong thing, so he pretended to forget.

Lin Siran stared at her with cold and sharp eyes, making people afraid to look directly at her.

"Then, when you returned to Caiwei Palace, did you meet anyone? Have you talked to anyone?" Lin Siran continued to increase the pressure.

Fuzi almost collapsed, and begged for mercy: "Little master, I really don't remember, don't force me, please, I don't remember!"

"Do you not remember, or are you lying?" Lin Siran's voice was heavy and full of coercion.
