Chapter 100 Cheng Jin is her stumbling block
What is Xu Jilin's current attitude? Is she helping Cheng Jin?
Has Xu Jilin forgotten what she said to herself before?
Qu Wanxin has never regarded Xu Jilin as the queen mother or the superior, but as an equal, with common interests and enemies.
She thought Xu Jilin was really helping her because of Chu Huaian, but what does her attitude mean now?
Just let Cheng Jin go?
As long as Xu Jilin is a little stronger, whether she is sent to the Dali Temple or in front of the emperor, it will be beneficial to them. Why did Xu Jilin keep resisting in every possible way, and even hit herself because of Cheng Jin?
Qu Wanxin didn't understand, covering her burning face with tears in her eyes.
Qu Wanxin looked up at Xu Jilin, her eyes full of anger and confusion.
Xu Jilin didn't think that she needed to explain to Qu Wanxin why she slapped her.
She just slapped her. Not to mention that it was Qu Wanxin who made her upset by being stupid in front of her today, even if Qu Wanxin didn't do anything, she, as the queen mother, could still teach her a lesson.
Xu Jilin didn't even give Qu Wanxin a look, but glanced at Cheng Jin, who looked like she was enjoying the excitement, which made Xu Jilin's teeth itch with anger.
But Cheng Jin enjoyed all the favors in front of Chu Chengye, and today's events were completely ignored by Cheng Jin, so she had no chance to discipline Cheng Jin.
Xu Jilin had to turn her gaze to the man who was kneeling on the ground and trembling.
He can't even handle this, and even a lie is full of loopholes, he is really useless.
Xu Jilin said calmly: "Today's incident was caused by this bastard servant, who wronged Lady Hui and wronged Concubine Rong. He deserves death."
"Come on, take this bastard servant out and beat him to death."
Juxiang, who was standing next to Xu Jilin, understood Xu Jilin's hint and immediately stepped forward to the guards behind him and said: "Hurry up! This bastard servant is making the Empress Dowager unhappy here, stay away and don't disturb the Empress Dowager's mood anymore."
The guards behind him immediately stepped forward and lifted the man up.
The man saw that Xu Jilin really wanted to kill him, and kowtowed to Xu Jilin in fear.
"Her Majesty, spare my life! Her Majesty, spare my life!"
"I know I was wrong, I know I was wrong!"
The man knocked his head so hard that blood was flowing. The skin on his forehead was exposed by the rough stones, and a lot of blood had seeped into the ground with complicated patterns as he knocked his head. It was very scary.
Even Qu Wanxin couldn't bear it. She tightened her hands and turned her eyes away.
She subconsciously raised her eyes and gave Xu Jilin a complicated look, but Xu Jilin gave her a cruel look, as if to imply that if Qu Wanxin didn't die, she would be the one to die. Qu Wanxin was so scared that she dared not say anything.
Qu Wanxin was shocked again and again.
In this era, human life is really worthless.
Cheng Jin saw Qu Wanxin's eyes pleading with Xu Jilin, and roughly understood what was going on.
She and Qu Wanxin had both received modern equal education, and they both knew that everyone was equal, but in this era, it was completely contrary to the ideas they accepted, and they could not protect themselves.
Cheng Jin looked at Qu Wanxin's expression of pity, and she had the idea of ​​cooperating with Qu Wanxin frankly.
Since she was used by Xu Jilin, it meant that Xu Jilin did not really want to help her.
If she and Qu Wanxin lived in peace, and dealt with Xu Jilin, she could live safely in this harem.
Xu Jilin did not care about the man's plea for mercy, and did not even look at him. Her eyes, which were full of tenderness, were now without any warmth.
The guards came forward and dragged the man up. The man kicked his legs and struggled wildly, still shouting.
"Empress Dowager, Empress Dowager, you can't..."
Before the man finished speaking, Juxiang stuffed the handkerchief in her hand into his mouth. Although he wanted to say something, he could only mumble and couldn't utter a sentence.
Juxiang gave the guard who was dragging the man a look, and he immediately understood and covered the man's mouth fiercely, leaving him no chance to speak.
"You are about to die, it's no use calling you Empress Dowager!"
When the guards dragged the man to a corner where no one could see him, no one dared to speak in the huge back garden, only a few sporadic screams came from there.
After a while, even the screams stopped, and the guards dragged out a bloody body. The clothes on the body were stained with blood and the color could not be seen. Even the human appearance could not be seen.
Qu Wanxin looked up inadvertently, and saw the lifeless man staring at her with wide eyes, blood oozing from the corners of his mouth, like a fierce ghost who came to take her life. Qu Wanxin was frightened and
her face turned pale, and her legs were weak and she was about to fall.
Although Qu Wanxin had been locked up in the palace for half a month because of Cheng Jin and suffered a lot of humiliation, those were tolerable. It was the first time she saw this man die in front of her.
For the first time, she truly felt the cruelty of this era.
Qu Wanxin felt that her heart was about to jump out, her panicked eyes were roaming around, and a huge loneliness and helplessness enveloped her.
She looked at Xu Jilin for help.
Xu Jilin just lowered her head and looked at the armor on her hand calmly, as if she didn't think it was a big deal.
Qu Wanxin subconsciously looked at another person present.
Cheng Jin.
Cheng Jin happened to look at Qu Wanxin, and she gave Qu Wanxin a soothing look.
Qu Wanxin was a little confused, and an emotion arose in her heart that she herself didn't know, but in a second, Qu Wanxin's heart was occupied by another voice.
Afraid? It was because of Cheng Jin's incident that things developed to this point, and this person died.
If you don't deal with Cheng Jin, you will be the next one to suffer the same fate.
Qu Wanxin shook her head uncomfortably, and her eyes turned cold.
Yes, Cheng Jin was her stumbling block in the harem. Without her, none of this would have happened.
In this era, human life is like an ant. Why spend too much time and energy on these people?
Seeing Qu Wanxin's expression change, Cheng Jin curled her lips helplessly.
[Am I an unforgivable person?]
However, seeing that Qu Wanxin was very defensive towards her, Cheng Jin knew that it was not a good time to confess to Qu Wanxin.
Qu Wanxin always regarded herself as an enemy. If Cheng Jin exposed her family at this time, it would be equivalent to exposing her weakness to Qu Wanxin, and she would be at the mercy of Qu Wanxin.
She would not do such a stupid thing.
The person has been dealt with, and it would be meaningless for Cheng Jin to stare at Qu Wanxin and Xu Jilin here.
Cheng Jin knew that Xu Jilin did this, and knew that Xu Jilin now regarded Cheng Jin as a thorn in her side. If she stayed here, she would have to be hypocritical with Xu Jilin, which would be too tiring.
