Chapter 6 The thief cries

thief Chuntao is smart. She knows that Cheng Jin, a young lady from an official family, is not capable of executing her. What she

needs to do now is to beg for mercy to soften Cheng Jin's heart.

She has never cared about these things of hers. She grew up in a rich family. How could she get angry over some property?

"Madam, please spare my life. I was just blinded by greed and did such a thing. Please spare my life."

She cried and knelt down to Cheng Jin's feet. Cuizhu went over first and stopped Chuntao who was about to grab Cheng Jing's pants.

"You have committed such a mistake, how dare you beg for mercy and argue with the queen."

Cheng Jin looked down at Chun Tao who was kneeling at her feet, and was silent for a long time before speaking, pretending to be intimate:

"Chun Tao, if it was just because of this matter, I would not want to blame you."

Chun Tao listened to Cheng Jin's words, thinking that her begging for mercy was effective, and immediately kowtowed to thank her, "Thank you, the queen, for your magnanimity, thank you for sparing my life."

Before Chun Tao finished speaking, Cheng Jin suddenly raised her voice.

The voice lost the tenderness of a little girl, and it seemed to be murderous, as if she wanted to eat Chun Tao alive.

Hearing Cheng Jin's anger, all the eunuchs and maids in the palace knelt on one side, not daring to look up at her.

Cheng Jin's temper was not considered good in the palace, but she had always been jealous of Hui Guiren, who was also a concubine with her, and had never been so angry with the servants around her like today, which made people feel timid.

"If I spare your life, who will spare my life? You took my personal jade pendant and sent it to Qu Wanxin, wanting to prove that I pushed Qu Wanxin into the lake and framed me for this matter. Why didn't you say you would spare my life?" Chun Tao

felt a chill on her back and her whole body was sore when she heard Cheng Jin say this .

If stealing Cheng Jin's things could be forgiven, then colluding with Qu Wanxin to deceive the superiors and subordinates and frame Cheng Jin would be a capital crime if it was discovered.

She couldn't even say the words of begging for mercy now.

Cheng Jin was too lazy to waste time talking to her, so she waved her hand, signaling the people to drag Chuntao away, and she walked past Chuntao to the main hall.

Seeing that the eunuch was coming to drag her away, Chuntao didn't want to die, so she could only beg for mercy from Cheng Jin again and again.

"Your Majesty, I don't ask you to forgive me. I am willing to make up for my mistakes. Please trust me again and spare my life."

"Noble Hui, Noble Hui will come to apologize to Your Majesty tomorrow. She got the news from somewhere that the emperor will also come, so she plans to put on a show for the emperor tomorrow to make him hate Your Majesty even more."

Cheng Jin stopped and thought carefully about Chuntao's words.

Chuntao's words are not very credible, but now is a life-threatening moment. It is impossible for a two-faced person like her to still think about working for Qu Wanxin before she dies.

If Qu Wanxin really comes to cause trouble tomorrow as Chuntao said, then taking this opportunity to let Qu Wanxin succeed, wouldn't it be possible to stay away from Qu Wanxin, the heroine, and Chu Chengye, the villain, all at once?

Although it is still three years away from the rebellion of the five princes, the sooner you stay away from the disputes of the protagonists, the more chances you will have.

Then find a time to meet your stubborn father and stubborn brother, and ask them to get less involved in the party disputes between the emperor and the five princes in the court. Who knows, when the emperor falls, you may be able to return home with other concubines who were later selected into the palace.

Thinking of this, Cheng Jin's expression eased, and she looked back at Chun Tao, raising her eyebrows to signal the guards who were holding Chun Tao.

"Let her go." Chun

Tao cried with joy, "Thank you, Madam, thank you, Madam, I will do my best to help you and repay your kindness."

Cheng Jin smiled, "You stay in the palace today and tell Madam Hui everything I do. You should say whatever I say."

Now is the only possibility to survive, Chun Tao must want to seize this opportunity.

"You can say that the emperor was furious today because of Qu Wanxin's matter, and he wanted to execute me immediately, saying that my current position as a concubine will not last long, and as long as someone adds fuel to the fire, I will never have a chance to turn over."

After Cheng Jin finished speaking to Chun Tao, Chun Tao repeated Cheng Jin's words to Madam Hui without hesitation.

After Chuntao left, Cuizhu looked at Cheng Jin with some doubts, "Why does the Queen still trust Chuntao? No matter what she did, the Queen would not be too harsh to beat her to death. Now the Queen sent her to report to Qu Wanxin. The Emperor will come tomorrow, and she will fall into her trap."

Cheng Jin shook her head, "How can I trust Chuntao again? She betrayed me once today, and there will definitely be another time. After tomorrow, send someone to take Chuntao to the Ministry of Punishment."

"As for Qu Wanxin's coming tomorrow, if she falls into her trap, it will be great."

Cheng Jin was awakened by Cuizhu the next day.

Cheng Jin opened his eyes and looked at Cuizhu, and there was nothing to love in life.

"Cuizhu, do you know? Calling me now is like opening the lid of my coffin."

Cuizhu was stunned for a moment, "What coffin lid? Why does Her Majesty say such an unlucky thing? Miss Wan is coming soon. I will help Her Majesty wash and dress. Let's not let others catch us."

The Queen is still so busy. Who got up earlier than her? After

Cheng Jin packed up, Qu Wanxin was already waiting in the side hall.

Cheng Jin looked at Qu Wanxin's sitting posture and couldn't help but worry about her.

She has a pretty face and beautiful looks. She is obviously the heroine in the book, but her behavior is no different from that of modern people.

She leaned on the chair, crossed her legs, and the handkerchief in her hand was thrown into the air again and again as if it were the hand silk of the Northeast Errenzhuan.

Before the Qu Wanxin in the book was invaded by the modern Qu Wanxin, she was also one of the most talented women in the capital. But now, she is like this, how can she be a woman of this era?

In this cannibalistic era, it may be a good thing to have your own thoughts, but if you show off too much, it will lead to death.

Qu Wanxin stood up as soon as Cheng Jin came over. She stood for a long time before thinking about bowing, and then put her hands on her waist without knowing the left and right.

"Ask the queen how she is."

Ask me how I am in the morning?

Who is asking in the morning?

I think it would be better if you came later.

She nodded slightly as a response, waiting for Qu Wanxin to make a big move.

"I heard that the Emperor came to Your Majesty yesterday to question her. I don't know who spread the news of my drowning as Your Majesty's fault, which led to the Emperor misunderstanding you. You should have come to clarify for Your Majesty yesterday, but you were not feeling well and could not get out of bed yesterday."

[You don't know who it is? It's you. You are crying wolf again. Aren't you thinking about the humiliation I suffered at the hands of Chu Chengye yesterday? Are you here to mock me today, waiting for me to get angry and make trouble in the harem, so that you can defeat me with one move?]

Listening to Qu Wanxin's hypocritical words, Cheng Jin smiled calmly and followed the attitude that Qu Wanxin wanted.

"Yes, I don't know which slave girl slandered me like this. If I find out, I will definitely pull out her tongue."
