The next day.
Su Lijin changed into men's clothes early and quietly left the palace.
Today is the day she releases the news to identify the murderer of Ye Shuyin.
Thinking of what happened today, her expression couldn't help but froze.
Today, I'm afraid the confrontation will last for a while.
She knew very well that Xiao Zhaolin was extremely cunning and would find ways to exonerate himself even if the evidence was right in front of him.
Even if he did something bad, he would remain calm and never admit it.
This person has never had any good heart and it is impossible for him to plead guilty and accept punishment.
"If he had a kind heart, I'm afraid he wouldn't have caused my family to be destroyed and I wouldn't have died in humiliation in my past life."
A cold light flashed in Su Lijin's eyes.
In his previous life, Xiao Zhaolin was extremely cruel and ruthless. In this life, he was equally cunning and despicable, and his methods were cruel.
However, she worked hard to protect herself and her family throughout her life so that they would not die at his hands early.
Now, Ye Shuyin has also gone back to her old path, giving her heart to the wrong person and dying in his hands.
Xiao Zhaolin, forget about having a kind heart. I'm afraid his heart is black from the inside out.
As she was thinking all the way, she unknowingly walked to the palace gate.
"stop!"
Suddenly, a loud shout startled her and she stopped abruptly.
"Who are you? Why have I never seen you before?" The voice was filled with doubt and was getting closer and closer.
Hearing this voice, Su Lijin couldn't help biting her lip. What she said was really coming true. Xiao Zhaolin was really haunting her!
She really didn't expect that when she left the palace today, she would run into this bad guy at the palace gate!
"Why aren't you talking? Look up!"
Seeing that the man kept his head down and didn't answer, Xiao Zhaolin walked in curiously, frowned and said in a low voice.
Su Lijin had to look up, but fortunately she was dressed as a man, so Xiao Zhaolin probably couldn't tell.
Sure enough, when he saw her face, Xiao Zhaolin just frowned and looked strange, but did not recognize her.
"I am honored to see Your Highness." Su Lijin bowed and saluted.
"Do you recognize me?" Xiao Zhaolin stared at her.
Su Lijin quickly said, "Everyone in the palace knows His Highness. His Highness's demeanor is not ordinary, so I can naturally recognize him."
She suddenly thought of the boastful servant from yesterday and sneered in her heart. With such a servant bragging everywhere, his reputation would surely be known to everyone.
But to her, it's just a bad reputation.
Xiao Zhaolin seemed to feel comfortable with her compliment. A smug look appeared on his face for a moment, but he just stared at her without looking away.
"Which palace are you from? You don't look like someone from the palace."
Hearing this, Su Lijin was slightly startled and said, "I am Jiang Bin, the Empress's servant. I usually wait for the Empress' orders to do things."
When he heard Su Lijin's name, Xiao Zhaolin frowned.
Are there more people under the Queen's command?
Could it be that the Queen is going to do something again?
Thinking of Su Lijin, he looked at the man who looked like he was about to leave the palace to do something, and couldn't help but sneer: "Someone under the Queen's command? Ha, of course I recognize people in the Queen's palace. Did you sneak into the palace and make up nonsense?"
He deliberately made things difficult for this person in order to vent the anger he had suffered from Su Lijin.
Thinking of how Su Lijin was now repeatedly opposing him, he felt a surge of hatred in his heart.
Su Lijin quickly lowered her head and said, "I dare not. I am indeed a subordinate of the Queen."
She felt angry and thought that Xiao Zhaolin was definitely doing it on purpose today.
This person is probably trying to make things difficult for me on purpose.
She felt anxious and wondered how to get rid of this big trouble.
Just when Xiao Zhaolin was about to continue to be embarrassed, a cold voice came, breaking the atmosphere.
"Why haven't you left the palace yet? Is this how the Queen's duties are neglected?"
Hearing this voice, Su Lijin felt relieved, knowing that someone had rescued her. She quickly saluted and said, "I pay my respects to the Emperor."
After the ceremony, she deliberately looked embarrassed, glanced at Xiao Zhaolin, who looked unhappy, and said, "Your Majesty, it's not that I don't want to leave, it's that His Highness won't let me go."
Xiao Zhaolin glared at him.
Xiao Shengxing's dark eyes swept over him: "This man is one of the Queen and my subordinates. Why did the virtuous prince stop him?"
"Oh, I thought this person was lying, so I asked a few more questions because I was afraid that some bad guys would sneak into the palace." Xiao Zhaolin said very calmly.
Xiao Zhaolin could lie without blinking, Su Lijin really admired him.
"Now that you've asked enough questions, let him go." Xiao Shengxing looked at Su Lijin with an indifferent expression.
Just as Su Lijin was about to lift her leg, Xiao Zhaolin deliberately said, "Your Majesty, is the Empress acting so recklessly these days? Your subordinates are entering and leaving the palace at will. Isn't Your Majesty being led by the nose a little too much?"
Paused by these words, Su Lijin quickly said, "I'm just doing some trivial things."
Xiao Shengxing narrowed his eyes slightly: "What does this mean, Your Majesty?"
"The Queen's subordinates are now spread all over the palace, and even the people around the Emperor have been arranged." Xiao Zhaolin said meaningfully.
"These wise princes worry too much. The Queen and I are husband and wife. There is no need to make too much distinction between you and me."
Xiao Shengxing's words were vague, neither admitting nor denying.
Su Lijin glanced at Xiao Shengxing and knew that if she continued to stay like this, she would never be able to leave the palace today.
Thinking of what was waiting to be done over there, and that Xiao Shengxing was fighting against Xiao Zhaolin, she quickly took the opportunity to slip away.
After finally getting away from the palace gate, she couldn't help but pat her chest and said, "Xiao Zhaolin has such a sharp eye. I almost got discovered."
