Chapter 284: Poisoning was my own idea
"What do you dare to do to me?"
Tuoba Ruoli sneered.
"Since you want to know so much, I'll show you what I will do to you. Come here——"
“It’s so lively here!”
When Tuoba Ruoli heard this, her voice stopped abruptly. She turned around in disbelief and saw Chu Huaixu and Yu Youning walking in side by side.
Behind the two of them, there was a group of people following.
Seeing them, Tuoba Ruoli was a little surprised, but her expression quickly returned to normal. "Why are you here? Do you like to follow people?"
Although she spoke politely, everyone present understood what she meant.
She was secretly saying that Yu Youning and the others were followers.
Chu Huaixu looked at Tuoba Ruoli calmly, "In Dayong, is there any place that a prince like me cannot go? I should be asking you this question. Why are you here?"
Tuoba Ruoli pursed her lips and did not give an answer for a long time.
She wanted to say it, but how should she say it?
She said she was nostalgic and came to see her former grandmother and uncle?
If these words were known to the people in the delegation and then spread back to the ears of the Xiliang Emperor and her mother-in-law, it would be of no benefit to her.
That she came here to deliberately cause trouble for Madam Lin and Lin Yu?
Isn't that just handing the handle over to the other party?
Tuoba Ruoli could only stare without saying a word.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Chu Huaixu himself showed an expression of sudden enlightenment.
"I forgot that although you are the Crown Princess of Xiliang, you grew up in Dayong. Madam Lin is your grandmother!
If I remember correctly, from your childhood, Madam Lin has always treated you like a jewel, and she has been very kind to you! Although you have no blood relationship with her, her kindness over the years was not fake. Now that your status has changed and you have power and influence, the Lin family has fallen on hard times. You must have come back to repay her, right?
Tuoba Ruoli was certain that Chu Huaixu had just been outside and had definitely heard their conversation inside.
You clearly know everything, but you pretend to know nothing and say such things just to embarrass her?
The more Tuoba Ruoli thought about it, the angrier she became, and her eyes turned red.
Chu Huaixu is really going too far!
They grew up together, and she saved him so many times. How could he forget all those things? How could he treat her like this?
Tuoba Ruoli didn't say anything, but Madam Lin couldn't help it.
Madam Lin looked at Chu Huaixu with tears in her eyes. She never thought that she would have the chance to meet the prince in this life!
When she was the wife of Marquis Yong'an, she could see the prince and the queen every now and then.
When we meet again now, it feels like a lifetime ago.
"Your Highness..."
As Mrs. Lin opened her mouth, she wanted to cry even more.
"This Xiliang princess isn't here to show any gratitude for my upbringing, nor is she here to repay me. She's here to humiliate me and cause trouble for me!
I beg His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to intervene for us, an orphan and a widow, and not allow the people of Xiliang to humiliate the people of Dayong!"
After hearing what Mrs. Lin said, Chu Huaixu's eyes changed when he looked at Mrs. Lin.
She is worthy of being Mrs. Lin!
This is quite a high level statement!
All those years as the Marquis’ wife were truly not a single day in vain!
Yu Tingwan also glanced at Madam Lin, without any ripples in her eyes or any fluctuations in her heart.
Come to think of it, how could someone who has been a marquis's wife for so many years really not know anything?
At least, he knows how to use the opponent's force to his advantage.
Mrs. Lin's words at this time put Chu Huaixu in a difficult position.
Chu Huaixu couldn't just ignore the people of Dayong.
This is an open conspiracy.
Chu Huaixu looked at Mrs. Lin, whose expression remained calm.
Even if the prince could see that she did it on purpose, it wouldn't matter.
After all, the most important thing for her right now is to survive.
Nothing else matters.
During this period of time, Mrs. Lin has figured out a lot.
When she was waiting to be married, she relied on her parents' family, and after getting married, she relied on Lin Yan.
After Lin Siqiong became famous, she relied on Lin Siqiong.
When she had Lin Ruoli, she relied on Lin Ruoli again.
Before, she had thought about relying on Yu Tingwan, Yu Youning, and even Lin Yu...
But all the facts told her that these people were unreliable.
You can't rely on others.
If she wants to survive and live well, she can only rely on herself.
After waiting for a long time for Chu Huaixu to speak, Mrs. Lin struggled with her upper body and got off the wheelchair directly, lying on the ground, looking very embarrassed.
"Your Highness, look at my legs. This is what Lin Ruoli poisoned me with before she left Dayong. That's why I'm in this state! Please help me, Your Highness!"
Tuoba Ruoli was not at all panicked. "You said that I poisoned you. Where is the evidence? There is no evidence. You are just framing me. Even if you are from Dayong, I will never let it go. I must make Dayong give me an explanation! No matter what, I am also the Crown Princess of Xiliang. I represent the face of Xiliang. How can I allow you to frame me like this?"
Mrs. Lin was lying on the ground at this time. When she looked at Tuoba Ruoli, she could only support her body, tilt her head back, and look at her with squinted eyes.
Her eyes were already filled with resentment, and now, looking at him, they were reddened. "Everything I said is true, not a false accusation!"
"Facts? What about the evidence?"
Tuoba Ruoli was even calmer than before, and her voice was light and airy, "If you can't produce any evidence, it's a false accusation!"
"Of course there's evidence!" Madam Lin sneered. "The head of this farm is the one you bribed to poison me. He's still imprisoned there. I can bring him here now to confront you."
"Okay!" Tuoba Ruoli nodded with a smile, "Then bring the person here! I also want to hear how this person framed me!"
Having said that, Tuoba Ruoli sat down gracefully, with disdain in her eyes.
Madam Lin wiped the tears from her face and shouted at the top of her voice, "Someone, bring the village head here!"
Hearing this, Lin Yu struggled even harder, "Let me go, I'll bring the person over!"
The two Xiliang guards did not let go, but looked at Tuoba Ruoli.
They were Tuoba Ruoli's guards, so naturally they only listened to Tuoba Ruoli.
Tuoba Ruoli waved her hand gently, "Let him go, let him go!"
Upon hearing this, the guard loosened his grip and allowed Lin Yu to get up from the ground.
When Lin Yu stood up, he staggered a little because he had been kneeling on the ground for too long.
After finally standing up straight and taking a deep look at Tuoba Ruoli, he turned around resolutely and walked out step by step with determination.
He didn't want to believe that Tuoba Ruoli had become like this, but the facts were right in front of him, forcing him to believe it.
Since Tuoba Ruoli is so ruthless, he has nothing to worry about.
What Lin Yu didn't know was that after he turned around and left, Tuoba Ruoli's eyes turned completely cold.
The man who used to be so good to her, who tolerated everything she did, and who even quarreled with Mrs. Lin against Lin Yu for her, is gone after all!
Lin Yu was now thinking about how to kill her.
Even her biological parents have never been truly kind to her, let alone this uncle who has no blood relationship with her!
Since these people are not sincere to her, don't blame her for being heartless to them.
Tuoba Ruoli glanced at a guard.
Without saying anything, the guard instantly understood what Tuoba Ruoli meant, and his eyes became firm.
Everyone was waiting in the house, and it didn't take long before Lin Yu came back with the village head.
The head of the village did not stay locked up in the house all the time.
If he is just locked up and given food and drink, isn't that too good a bargain for him?
Mrs. Lin had the head of the farm looked after, and she put handcuffs and leg irons on him, forcing him to work in the farm, keeping him busy all day long.
Not only do they have to work, but they don't even get enough to eat.
After a few months, working hard, eating little, being exposed to the wind and sun every day, and not being able to get enough rest, Zhuangtou looked increasingly old, and walked unsteadily, as if he would not live for many days.
When he saw Tuoba Ruoli sitting on the upper hand, Zhuangtou's pupils shook violently and the corners of his mouth twitched, as if he wanted to say something.
Mrs. Lin didn't notice this at all. After she saw Zhuangtou, her eyes became more fierce and there was more hatred in them.
Although the poisoning was ordered by Tuoba Ruoli, it was done by the village head himself after all.
It can be said that the reason she has become like this now is entirely because of Zhuangtou.
In this situation, how could she not hate Zhuangtou?
"Speak!" Mrs. Lin said through gritted teeth.
Upon hearing this, Zhuangtou subconsciously looked at Madam Lin and asked, "What did you say?"
"Of course, tell me how you colluded with her, how you got the poison from her, and how you poisoned me."
While Mrs. Lin was speaking, her finger was pointing at Tuoba Ruoli.
The head of the village lowered his head and shook his head decisively, "I don't understand what Madam is talking about. Poisoning Madam was my own idea and had nothing to do with anyone else. I have already told Madam this before. Why don't you believe it?"
"What?" Madam Lin looked at the village head in disbelief. "You...how can you talk nonsense? You clearly didn't say that before! You said before that it was the poison Lin Ruoli gave you before she left. Where did a small village head like you get such a strong poison?"
The village head still lowered his head, but he showed no intention of changing his words. "I bought it. I spent dozens of taels of silver on it."
Lin Yu also frowned, "Nonsense! How could such a poison be bought with just a few dozen taels of silver? Why did you lie? Are you afraid of her? This is Dayong, not Xiliang. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is here too. Don't worry, she can't do anything to you..."
