The emperor's husband wants to hug

Chapter 70 Framed
After a while, Hua Mujin changed her clothes and followed the queen mother's guards to the Ganlu Palace.

At the same time, Cuiyuxuan.

Cuiyuxuan is the place where Lin Yushi lives, and the palace is very simple.

Although she is considered as Shuyi, her treatment is far from that of Xia Hanxue who was thrown into the cold palace.

"Your Majesty, you can't go. If you go, Concubine Ning will definitely not let you go. Think twice, Your Majesty."

Inside Cuiyuxuan, Lin Yushi was standing by the table, beside her was Qiao'er, who was kneeling and begging for her.

Looking at Qiaoer, Lin Yushi felt a little embarrassed.

"Qiaoer, do you know that if I don't go, Concubine Xi will be convicted of pushing the nobleman into the water. If Concubine Xi is convicted, how can you make me feel at ease?"

"Your Majesty, my servant understands, my servant understands." Looking up, Qiao'er looked at Lin Yushi, and continued: "But Your Majesty, you have known Concubine Ning since you were a child, and you know that she is always cruel and merciless. It is related to Concubine Ning, if you testify for Concubine Xi, then Concubine Ning will definitely hate you to the bone, and I am afraid that you will have a hard time in the harem from now on."

Listening to Qiaoer's words, Lin Yushi frowned.

She knew Wei Hanshuang very well.

Wei Hanshuang's father was the prime minister, and he was pampered since he was a child.

Even though I have known her since childhood, she has always followed Wei Hanshuang, a person who has lost all glory.

Even after entering the palace, Wei Hanshuang's status in the harem was much higher than her because of her background.

Thinking about it, Lin Yushi sat down.

"Qiao'er, why do you think I just saw this matter? It would be great if I didn't see it."

"Your Majesty, just pretend you didn't see it, for your own sake and for the Lin family's."

Hearing this, Lin Yushi twitched the corners of her mouth with a wry smile, shook her head and sighed.

"Go and close the door, it's a bit cold."

Perhaps, those who bear the burden of the family are those who cannot decide their own actions.

Hua Hibiscus, don't blame me... I can't help myself either.

Walking into the Ganlu Hall, Hua Mujin glanced at all the people present, except for Wei Hanshuang, there were also two nobles who were with Wei Hanshuang in the gazebo in the afternoon.

Blessing the body, Hua Mujin saluted the Queen Mother.

"The concubine sees the queen mother, the queen mother is Fu'an."

On the phoenix chair, the queen mother still had a haughty and condescending attitude, and gave Hua Mujin a cold look, and the hatred for Hua Mujin in those eyes had never diminished.

"Forget it, the Ai family can't bear it."

There was a professional smile on the corner of Hua Mujin's mouth. She got up, turned her head and glanced at the noble body that was placed aside and covered with only a white cloth.

"Concubine Xi, do you know why the Ai family asked you to come to Ganlu Palace?"

Looking up, Hua Mujin looked at the Queen Mother and nodded, "This noble lady is crying outside the Jinxi Palace. I'm afraid the whole palace knows that her master fell into the water and died. The concubine How could you not know?"

Glancing coldly at the palace maid kneeling next to the nobleman's corpse who was still crying, Hua Mujin sneered.

Although it's a play, but this court lady's play is quite devoted.

Seeing Hua Mujin's lazy appearance, the queen mother squinted her eyes.

"Since you know, can you explain this?"

Before replying, Hua Mujin reached out and pressed her waist, and said suddenly: "Queen Mother, can you give me a seat? These days, the emperor stays in Jinxi Palace every day, and my waist is a little weak. sore."

As soon as Hua Mujin finished speaking, she received countless angry and vicious looks.

Hua Hibiscus saw it in her eyes, and the corners of her mouth slightly raised.

Well, that's what she wanted.

The queen mother tightened her hand on the armrest, and finally she gave a look to the nurse beside her, and asked the palace servant to bring her a chair.

Sitting on the chair, Hua Mujin looked dignified and elegant, but only she knew that such a sitting posture made her very uncomfortable.

"Thank you, Queen Mother. However, it would be even better if I could have a cup of tea."

The queen mother slapped the armrest suddenly, and snapped at Hua Mujin: "Concubine Xi, you are too aggressive!"

Hua Hibiscus immediately showed a pitiful and aggrieved look.

"Queen Mother, you have misunderstood my concubine! I am indeed thirsty. After all, Jinxi Palace is still a long way from Ganlu Palace. In order to come here as soon as possible, I wanted to drink water for fear of delaying the time. Let the queen mother wait for a while. Wait, that's why I have the courage to come to your Queen Mother and want to ask for a cup of tea."

Seeing Hua Mujin's pitiful pretentiousness, the queen mother let out a deep breath and suppressed her anger.

"Come on, serve tea!"

Hearing the queen mother's voice, Hua Mujin's face blossomed into a smile.

"Thank you, Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager deserves to be a person who was once honored by her mother. She is so magnanimous, and my concubines are ashamed."

The phrase 'the person whose mother used to live in the world' completely turned the Queen Mother's face black with anger.

"Concubine Xi, the Empress Dowager called you here to find out about the nobleman's drowning. Are you taking things too far?"

At this time, Wei Hanshuang, who had been sitting by the side, spoke.

The coldness in her eyes made Hua Mujin feel a bit of coolness, and she grinned.

"It turns out that Concubine Ning's sister is also here. I was only talking to the Queen Mother just now, but she ignored her. It's really my fault. The summer in the Huanyue Kingdom is really hot. I don't know that Concubine Ning is in the gazebo of the Royal Garden in the afternoon. Enjoying the shade, did I bother you?"

Hearing this, Wei Hanshuang frowned, but he didn't know what Hua Mujin meant by saying this.

She thought for a while, "Concubine Xi is serious, but it was too hot in the palace, so I invited a few younger sisters to the Imperial Garden. At that time, I didn't notice Concubine Xi, so I can't say I was bothering you."

"Oh, really?"

Hearing this, Hua Mujin's smile deepened.

Turning her head, she glanced at the nobleman's corpse on the ground, and asked the maid beside her who had turned into a soft sob.

"You said that your nobleman was pushed into the water by me, but you saw it with your own eyes?"

Hua Mujin's words changed so quickly that the sobbing palace maid couldn't react for a moment.

She looked up at the flower hibiscus, glanced at Wei Hanshuang from the corner of the eye, and said with certainty: "Yes, I saw it with my own eyes. I saw you push the nobleman into the water with my own eyes. The nobleman was drowned because he didn't know how to swim. dead!"

Hua Hibiscus sneered and hooked her lips, a chill appeared in her eyes.

"Since you saw it with your own eyes, then when your nobleman fell into the water, you should have been very close, right?"

"Of course, the servant girl is the personal servant of the nobleman. In order to take care of the nobleman at any time, she dare not be too far away from the nobleman."

The palace lady answered as a matter of course, she didn't realize at all that she had fallen into Hua Mujin's trap.

"Oh, in order to be able to take care of the nobleman at any time, so you dare not stay too far away from the nobleman? A joke! Since you are very close, why didn't you go down and rescue your nobleman in time when your nobleman fell into the water? This is you The so-called care?"

Hua Mujin abruptly changed her tone to an angry reprimand, which made the palace maid panic for a moment, and a trace of fear and timidity arose in her heart.

"Slaves, servants don't know how to drink water..."

Glancing at Gong Nu coldly, Hua Mujin snorted coldly at the corner of her mouth.

"So what if you don't know water? Do you think that your life as a slave is more precious than that of a nobleman?"

Being reprimanded by Hua Mujin, the goddess of the palace became even more flustered, she shook her head quickly, "No, the servant did not..."

"Concubine Xi, although the concubine was in the gazebo at the time, after hearing the sound of someone falling into the water, she also heard the maid's shout. She thought she couldn't swim, so she wanted to call for help."

At this time, a nobleman standing behind Wei Hanshuang suddenly spoke.

Looking at it coldly, the chill on Hua Mujin's face became even stronger.

"I'm asking, when is it your turn to interrupt?"

When Hua Mujin looked at the nobleman, the nobleman trembled inexplicably.

Unwillingness appeared in his eyes.

"Chen and concubine dare not."

"If you don't dare, just keep your mouth shut!"

At this time, everyone in Ganlu Hall felt the deterrence emanating from Hua Mujin. This deterrence made the nobleman who had just spoken and the maid who was kneeling on the ground feel timid towards her.

"Concubine Xi, the Ai family is still there, shouldn't the Ai family also keep their mouths shut?" Suddenly, the queen mother spoke up, suppressing Hua Mujin's threat.

"Don't dare, what else does the Empress Dowager want to ask, just ask, the concubine will know everything without saying anything."

Hua Mujin laughed at Yan Yan, completely opposite to the aggressive expression just now.

Looking at Hua Hibiscus coldly, the Empress Dowager snorted and asked, "Although you have been scolding the court lady, you have not denied that you pushed the nobleman into the water. Does this mean that you are the one who pushed the nobleman into the water!"

The Empress Dowager spoke with certainty, without any doubts, as if the nobleman's death had already been determined to be the work of Hua Mujin.

"Queen Mother, didn't you say that everything must be based on evidence, and this maid belongs to this nobleman, so her words are naturally worthless, aren't they?"

The queen mother did not expect that Hua Mujin would bring out the matter of Caixiu Pavilion to her again, which made the queen mother even more speechless.

"Concubine Xi, it's too early to say this. Although I didn't notice that Concubine Xi was also in the Imperial Garden at the beginning, when the nobleman fell into the water, I did see Concubine Xi walking away from the pool. I don’t know if this witness, Bengong, can be counted as a witness?”

Hua Mujin seemed to have expected that Wei Hanshuang would speak, without any surprise or panic on her face.

"Of course, of course! So, the two nobles who were in the pavilion with Concubine Ning also saw with their own eyes that I pushed the nobleman into the water?"

"Of course I saw it!"

The nobleman who had just been reprimanded by Hua Hibiscus answered very quickly.

As if to save face from being reprimanded by Hua Hibiscus just now, the nobleman answered without hesitation, but after answering, she felt the coolness emanating from Wei Hanshuang.

Raising her lips, Hua Mujin showed a sinister smile, and continued to ask, "I remember, just now you said that you only heard the sound of someone falling into the water and the voice of a maid calling for help. How could this turn into seeing Bengong push someone into the water with your own eyes ?”

Hearing this, the nobleman knew that he had been trapped by Hua Mujin, and jumped in without hesitation.

"You...I, my concubine just didn't hear what you said clearly, Concubine Xi, so I answered subconsciously."

"Snapped……"

As soon as the nobleman finished speaking, Hua Mujin slapped the small wooden table next to it with tea. In an instant, the side of the small wooden table fell apart, and the tea spilled all over the floor.
