Chapter 99 Is being a widow so tempting to her?

Lian Xin and Xue Qingyao looked at each other and said angrily, "What's wrong with me wanting to stand out and live a rich life?"

Xue Youli watched this scene coldly, his heart as clear as a mirror.

[Ha! Xue Qingyao is really good at tricking Lian Xin into framing Duan Cainv. Now that there are witnesses and physical evidence, she has become the most innocent one.]

Bang!

A crisp slapping sound was heard!

It was Xue Qingyao who strode up to Lian Xin and slapped her hard in front of everyone.

"Lian Xin, after I entered the palace, you were assigned to my side. We have been together for a few months. I thought you were a good person, but I didn't expect you to do such a crazy thing tonight! From this moment on, the relationship between you and me as master and servant ends here!"

After saying that, she turned around and walked in front of Murong Che, kneeling in front of him with a plop. "Your Majesty, it is because I was not strict with you that Ms. Xue suffered such an unprovoked disaster. I will be confined to my room for a month to copy Buddhist scriptures to atone for Lian Xin's sins!"

After all, Xue Qingyao had lived two lives and still had some brains. He distanced himself from Lian Xin in just a few words.

Xue Youli fell down, and Banxia felt heartbroken, especially when she saw her eyes were bleeding and swollen from crying.

She believed that Lian Xin was Xue Qingyao's shield, and she also knelt down, "I beg the emperor to severely punish the murderer who murdered my master!"

Murong Che glanced at Xue Qingyao and Banxia who were kneeling in front of him, with a dark look in his eyes.

He pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice, "Since Lady Xue wants to atone for her sins, I will grant your wish!"

Xue Qingyao heaved a sigh of relief, "Yes! Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty!"

Murong Che agreed to let her stay at home to copy scriptures, which meant that he would not be angry with her because of Lian Xin, so she escaped a disaster.

Murong Che turned his gaze and looked at Lian Xin who was kneeling on the ground. "Lian Xin plotted to murder the heir to the throne, behead her! Duan Cainv is suspected of conspiracy, send her and her maid to the prison for strict interrogation, and make a decision after the truth is revealed!"

"Your Majesty..." Seeing that Murong Che let Xue Qingyao go so easily, Banxia wanted to speak up for her master unwillingly, but was stopped by Xue Youli with a look.

She guessed that her master had other plans, so she shut her mouth and said nothing more.

After Lian Xin and Duan Cai Nu were dragged away, Murong Che glanced at the concubines and said, "You all can go away."

In fact, he knew exactly who was the villain and who was the mastermind in this scene.

Xue Qingyao is not something to be feared. The reason for keeping her is just to catch Murong Ye behind her.

However, Murong Ye is cunning and cautious, and his plan is flawless. It may not be easy to find any evidence against him.

All the concubines must have felt bad when they knew that Murong Che had lost his heir.

Now that the exciting show was over, they didn't want to leave any traces, so they all bowed and left, slinking away faster than rabbits.

Before Xue Qingyao left, she glanced at Xue Youli who was held in Murong Che's arms, and then turned around.

Xue Youli only lost the baby in her belly, but she lost Lian Xin, her right-hand man!

But strictly speaking, she won this round.

After all, Lian Xin was not hers, but was loyal to Murong Ye.

Lian Xin would report every move she made in the harem to Murong Ye in detail.

Today she also wants to thank Xue Youli for helping her remove the biggest eyeliner around her!

Thinking of this, Xue Qingyao's mood suddenly improved a lot, and even his steps became lighter than before.

"Princess Qinghe, you should go back too."

Seeing that Chu Xinyue was still standing there like a wooden man, Murong Che simply shouted to chase her away.

Chu Xinyue glanced at Xue Youli and still did not move.

It was she who designed Murong Che to be frail and sickly. Although this man often summoned Ali to sleep with him, she knew that they had never actually rolled around in bed together.

Murong Che was also very clear about this.

But Doctor Cheng said that Ali had a miscarriage. Murong Che would not believe what the mediocre Doctor Cheng said. Did he think that Ali was cheating on him?

He deliberately sent everyone away. Did he want to settle accounts with Ali?

No! Chu Xinyue will protect Ah Li until her death!

If Murong Che dared to touch Ali, she would knock him out, then take Ali and escape from the palace and run away!

Chu Xinyue had a lot of inner drama. In just a short moment, she planned how to deal with Murong Che and live a life of exile with Xue Youli.

Seeing that Murong Che looked a little grumpy, she mustered up her courage and said, "Your Majesty, Ah Li didn't mean to lie..."

"Princess!"

As soon as Chu Xinyue started to speak, Murong Che interrupted her coldly, "Lady Xue was injured tonight. I want to send her back to rest. You don't have to follow her!"

Seeing Murong Che's tough attitude in chasing people away, Chu Xinyue looked at Xue Youli worriedly.

Xue Youli squeezed her eyes and said, "Princess, I'm fine. We can talk tomorrow if you have anything to say."

Chu Xinyue knew that she was telling herself that she could handle Murong Che. "Okay, I'll go back first. Ah Li, remember to ask the imperial physician to treat your wound. Your Majesty, I'll take my leave."

After Chu Xinyue gave Xue Youli some instructions, she left, looking back every few steps.

When her figure disappeared into the night, Xue Youli felt the man's hands holding her trembling.

She didn't worry at all that Murong Che misunderstood her. After all, she had reported to the man in advance before doing anything bad.

For example, her menstruation was delayed, so she took special medicine, which she also mentioned to Murong Che. There was a medicine in the prescription that could change a person's pulse.

At this moment, Xue Youli was nestled in the man's arms and could feel his arms shaking more and more violently.

[No wonder Murong Che was in a hurry to get him back. He was worried that if he delayed any further, he would not be able to hold on, right?]

[But I’m only 90 pounds, not that heavy! Tsk tsk tsk… He really is not in good shape! ]

In order to avoid being thrown to the ground by the man, Xue Youli hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, please let me down. I have something to tell you."

Murong Che couldn't bear to hear her say that he couldn't do it, so he tried to steady his hands, "If you have anything to say, just say it directly. You are bleeding, and it is not suitable for you to walk."

"Women bleed a few days every month. I am fine, but it is not convenient for you to hold me like this and talk to me."

[I’m mainly afraid that you won’t be able to hold on and will throw me to the ground.]

Murong Che wanted to show his strength again, but his arm strength had really reached its limit.

He didn't try to be brave, and directly put the person down from his arms and said, "Speak now."

Xue Youli stood still and considered her words carefully. "Just now, Doctor Cheng said that I had miscarriage, which was actually a misunderstanding. I just had my period."

There were special female officials in the Jingshifang who recorded the menstrual periods of the concubines in the harem. Xue Youli thought that she could defeat Xue Qingyao in this situation, so she took medicine that could delay her menstrual period.

Who would have thought that her and Chu Xinyue's efforts would ultimately be defeated by the heroine's halo.

However, the night was not entirely without gain.

Lian Xin is Murong Ye's person. Not only does she help Xue Qingyao win favor, she also often helps Xue Qingyao pass messages to Murong Ye.

After her death, Xue Qingyao would be isolated and helpless in the palace, and it would be difficult for her to make any big moves.

Murong Che raised his eyebrows, "If it was a misunderstanding, why didn't you explain it in front of everyone just now?"

Xue Youli rolled her eyes and said in a coquettish tone, "Your Majesty, although my pregnancy is a false rumor, it is an indisputable fact that someone in the harem wanted to give me an abortion drug. If I can take this opportunity to find out the person who harmed me, then if I really get pregnant in the future, the baby in my belly will be safer, don't you think?"

[I still hope to give birth to a son safely and become the queen mother soon, so of course I have to get rid of those who may threaten me first.]

Murong Che: “…” This woman only wants to give birth to an heir to the throne and doesn’t hope for his well-being at all.

Is widowhood so tempting to her?

Murong Che laughed angrily, "You think so far ahead. I should try harder."

"ah?"

Xue Youli was stunned, her eyes widened, "How hard does the emperor want to work?"
