Chapter 97: Wonderful! Internal strife breaks out

Xu Jilin frowned in disgust at Qu Wanxin's ferocious look.

She waved her hand and asked Juxiang beside her to help Qu Wanxin up. After helping Qu Wanxin up, Juxiang said coldly to Cheng Jin:

"Noble Concubine Rong, the Empress Dowager is still here. It is not your turn to discipline Concubine Hui."

"Discipline? When did I discipline Concubine Hui?"

Cheng Jin pretended to be ignorant and asked Cuizhu: "Cuizhu, what did you say just now? Why did Concubine Hui suddenly fall down?"

Cuizhu followed Cheng Jin's words and said: "I don't know. I just told Concubine Hui not to be disrespectful to the Empress. Concubine Hui seemed to be unsteady and fell down."

Cheng Jin spread his hands helplessly, "I will tell you, where did I discipline Concubine Hui."

"If I really let this palace discipline someone, I will definitely give her a few slaps first to teach her a lesson."

Cheng Jin raised her eyebrows and smiled at Qu Wanxin who was lying on the ground, "How can I just let her fall once? Don't you think so, noble lady Hui?"

Qu Wanxin was speechless after being rebuked by Cheng Jin, and could only look at Xu Jilin.

Xu Jilin was very disappointed with Qu Wanxin, but now the only one in the palace who could compete with Cheng Jin was Qu Wanxin.

It was good for Qu Wanxin to be favored, so she whispered in Chu Chengye's ear for her, and Chu Chengye, who was easy to coax, ignored the affairs of state, giving her An'er the opportunity to rebel.

How could she really let Qu Wanxin be with Chu Huaian again? No matter how good they were before, that was before, and it had nothing to do with now.

Chu Huaian wanted to ascend the throne, so how could he marry a concubine of Chu Chengye.

Xu Jilin helped Qu Wanxin just to use her. Chu Chengye would not listen to her. In order to avoid Chu Chengye's suspicion, she did not dare to put anyone into the palace without permission.

Qu Wanxin was brought here by Chu Chengye himself. She originally wanted to make good use of her, but she did not expect Qu Wanxin to be such a waste.

However, Xu Jilin had no one to use now, so she had to protect Qu Wanxin.

Xu Jilin looked at Cheng Jin, and the gentleness she had pretended to have was no longer in her eyes, "Empress Rong, do you think I'm a fool? I'm right in front of you, and you're still lying to me!"

"Do you think you can act rashly in front of me just because the emperor likes you a little? I tell you, don't be too arrogant, or you'll get hurt."

Cheng Jin pretended to be stupid, "I don't understand what the queen mother is saying."

"The queen mother seems to treat me differently."

"Earlier, Concubine Hui said that the man was sent by me, and the queen mother believed Concubine Hui's words without even asking, and blamed me. When it came to me, the queen mother said it must be my fault."

Xu Jilin ignored her and said coldly, "You are eloquent, you are really good at talking, but this matter cannot be let go by your nice words."

"I am only discussing the matter at hand. I have no intention of favoring the noble Hui. If it were you today, I would treat you the same way."

Cheng Jin smiled, "I never said that this matter would be forgotten. The noble Hui was wronged, so we must investigate it thoroughly. I don't care whether the queen mother is partial or not. Since the queen mother wants to be innocent, we can go to the Dali Temple and let the adults there decide."

Cheng Jin mocked, "If it were me today, I would have drowned in this pond long ago."

"I am willing to accept the investigation and interrogation of the Dali Temple."

Cheng Jin glanced at the man who was held on the ground and said calmly: "Let's see if this man was ordered by me or someone deliberately framed him."

As long as she doesn't distinguish right from wrong here, Cheng Jin will have the opportunity to throw this black pot down. If she really does it here, Xu Jilin and Qu Wanxin will unite and I'm afraid they will directly convict Cheng Jin and throw her into this lake.

As long as she makes a big deal out of it, Cheng Jin will have a way to solve it.

The people in the Dali Temple were all selected by Chu Chengye himself later, and they would not have any collusion with Xu Jilin.

Zhenfu had also met Cheng Jin, so naturally he would not be disrespectful to her. He was better than the two extremely hypocritical people in front of him.

"Ridiculous!"

Xu Jilin shouted.

"How can we hand over the affairs of the harem to the people of the Dali Temple? Wouldn't that make everyone laugh?"

"As long as I can clear the name of the noble Hui, I am willing to be the laughing stock of the world." Cheng Jin said word by word.

When Qu Wanxin heard Cheng Jin say this, she tugged at the corner of Xu Jilin's clothes anxiously.

"Queen Mother, clear my name and let the noble Rong go to the Dali Temple."

Qu Wanxin was secretly delighted. Although she came from the modern times, she also knew what life was like in the ancient prisons and what methods were used to torture prisoners.

As long as Cheng Jin was in, they would bribe people and it would not be easy to kill Cheng Jin.

Qu Wanxin sneered in her heart. Cheng Jin was pretending. She had heard with her own ears that the man said that he was sent by Cheng Jin. Even if he didn't say anything now, he would probably confess everything after being punished. Wouldn't Cheng Jin's guilt be confirmed immediately?

This Cheng Jin was also sick. Not only did he not admit what he had done, but he also jumped into the fire pit.

But these were none of her business. Cheng Jin had chosen the path himself, so she couldn't blame others.

Qu Wanxin became more and more excited as she thought about it. She approached Xu Jilin and whispered.

"Queen Mother, please agree quickly. I heard with my own ears that the man said he was Cheng Jin's man. She would definitely not survive if she went to the Dali Temple."

Xu Jilin glanced at Qu Wanxin and said nothing.

Cheng Jin saw it clearly. Seeing Xu Jilin's attitude towards Qu Wanxin, she understood it in her heart.

She originally thought that Xu Jilin and Qu Wanxin were working together to deal with her, but it turned out that she was wrong.

Seeing that Xu Jilin and Qu Wanxin had completely different attitudes after hearing that Cheng Jin was going to enter the Dali Temple, she estimated that Xu Jilin's plan was also hidden from Qu Wanxin.

Otherwise, why did Qu Wanxin swear from the beginning that the man was Cheng Jin's man, as if she had seen Cheng Jin's desolation after the truth was revealed.

So Cheng Jin admitted to the man in person that there were only benefits and no harm in entering the Dali Temple.

And Xu Jilin was the mastermind of this matter, so she naturally would not let Cheng Jin enter the Dali Temple.

The people in the Dali Temple have now been replaced by Chu Chengye's own people. If he really went to the Dali Temple, the man would be out of her control. What if he really couldn't stand the torture and said something he shouldn't say.

Qu Wanxin was still urging Xu Jilin to immediately send Cheng Jin to the Dali Temple for severe interrogation, and she didn't notice that Xu Jilin's expression was getting more and more weird.

Cheng Jin was a little nervous before, but now, seeing the situation clearly, she just found it funny.

Is there anything more refreshing than having an internal conflict among your own enemies?

"Queen Mother, please don't hesitate any more, quickly order the Dali Temple to take Cheng Jin away for interrogation." "

I dare to guarantee that this time it was definitely Cheng Jin who did it, and I am not talking nonsense." "

I have a clear mind this time, please believe me once, this time we can definitely overthrow Concubine Rong."
