Chapter 203 Return
More and more people rushed over and surrounded Lin Baoer in the middle.
"Wuwuwu Baoer... Wuwuwu... You're okay... Fortunately you're okay..." Lin Ruqian cried and hiccuped.
"Baoer." Lin Mobai and Lin Zhiyu also had tears in their eyes, which were rare, and they were filled with joy of regaining what they had lost.
Only Lin Qiming hugged Lin Baoer for a long time, his lips trembling, and he couldn't say a word.
Guessing why they were like that, Lin Baoer felt sad. She silently hugged Lin Qiming back and said softly, "Daddy, I'm fine."
"Don't you know me yet? That little fire couldn't trap me. I ran away as soon as I woke up."
"Then why didn't we find you near Changqing Palace?" Lin Qiming's Adam's apple rolled and his voice was hoarse.
Lin Baoer said obediently: "The fire was so big that even the dog hole was blocked. I had no choice but to climb over the wall. As a result, as soon as I climbed over, I was knocked unconscious and taken away."
Several people's faces changed, "Who?!"
Seeing this, Lin Baoer waved her hands quickly, "I don't know them either, but I got rid of them and escaped, so it took me so long to come back."
[If you knew that I killed those two people, I might no longer be the pure and flawless Baoer in your hearts. I can't say it, I can't say it.]
[Speaking of which, those two people deserved it. Why not tie up anyone else but me? And since they found those two things, I can only send them to see King Yan. 】
【Alas, I guess daddy and my brothers are all very worried. Look at these two with untidy beards, it's obvious that they have been up all night. 】
【But why can't I see mom? Didn't mom come over? 】
【If I had known, I wouldn't have stayed with those two for so long, taking me to that barren place and making daddy and the others worry. 】
【Fortunately, I got other things in the middle, so it's not a loss. 】
Listening to her constant chattering, the four of them smiled faintly at the same time.
This is their Baoer, that's right.
At this time, the others, who only had Lin Baoer in their eyes, noticed the person behind her and couldn't help wondering, "Who is this?"
Being held down by two eunuchs, tied up by five big men, and dressed like a palace maid.
As people from the previous dynasty, they naturally didn't know those people in the harem.
But Song Qingqing recognized her at a glance and was surprised, "Isn't this the maid from Deshan Palace?"
"Xiuhong."
At first, everyone didn't understand. When she called out that name, they all looked over, with anger, scrutiny, surprise, and surprise in their eyes, and their expressions were different.
"You said she is Xiuhong?" Lin Qiming asked again.
Song Qingqing nodded, "I often see her at the Empress' place, it's impossible for me to recognize her wrongly."
"That's perfect." Lin Zhiyu sneered, grabbed Xiuhong and dragged her into the Qianqing Palace.
[Brother, this...]
Lin Qiming touched her head, picked her up, carefully wiped the black ash on her face, and said softly, "Just tell me what happened before, don't worry about the rest."
Buried in his arms, Lin Baoer nodded.
Everyone returned to the Qianqing Palace. The emperor was furious when he saw Xiuhong being tied up by the five men. "Tell me! Who ordered you to do this! You murdered the daughter of an important official of the dynasty. Do you know that you don't have enough lives to kill her?"
The pressure from the emperor directly frightened Xiuhong so much that her face turned pale, and she looked at the queen for help.
The Queen also glared at her with a look of disapproval, and shouted, "Why don't you confess the truth! I treated you well today, but you did such a treasonous thing! What crime should be punished for!"
"Tell me! Why did you send ginseng soup to Baoer without permission! What was in the ginseng soup! If you dare to lie, I will beat you to death without your Majesty!"
Xiuhong choked and begged for mercy, "Wuwuwu... It was Concubine Li who ordered me to do it... The chicken in the ginseng soup was drugged, and she said that she would let me leave the palace after the task was completed, so I agreed for some unknown reason..."
"Your Majesty, please let me go for the sake of my dedicated service today..."
Concubine Li?
Everyone was shocked.
How come Concubine Li was involved?
The emperor's expression changed at this moment.
After a while, he roared with a dark face, "Go and call Concubine Li to me!"
The chief eunuch agreed.
Soon, Shen Ruyu was brought here by the chief eunuch. As soon as she entered the Qianqing Palace, she burst into tears, "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Would you rather believe a palace maid than me?"
"Who is I? What is the fourth lady's identity? How could I attack a child! What good will it do to me?!"
"I have no parents and no one to rely on. What good can I get from offending the entire Lin family?!"
Shen Ruyu cried, "Your Majesty is the only one I can rely on. Why would you do such a thing? Isn't this pushing me to death!"
Hearing these words, the emperor's expression really shook.
Seeing her shirking the responsibility, Xiuhong shook her head angrily, "Your Majesty! It was Concubine Li who ordered me to do it! I have no grudge against the Fourth Young Lady, and there is no reason for me to murder her!" "
Then what evidence do you have?" Shen Ruyu pressed, "You said without any evidence that I ordered you to harm the Fourth Young Lady, but where is the evidence? What if you were sent by someone else to frame me! Maybe you just can't stand your Majesty's doting on me, so..."
She sobbed, looking at the emperor pitifully, so pitiful.
"You!"
Xiuhong was speechless now, and she really couldn't produce any evidence, so she could only worry.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! It was really Concubine Li who ordered me to do it, Your Majesty!"
Xiuhong kowtowed on the ground continuously.
The emperor's eyes flashed with impatience, "The crime of murdering the daughter of an important official is even more serious. Come, drag her out and chop her off!"
Xiuhong's body was stiff, her face turned pale with fear, and she kowtowed and shouted at the top of her lungs, "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! It was really Concubine Li who ordered this servant to do so! Your Majesty!..."
Just as the eunuch was about to drag her down, Lin Zhiyu stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, don't make rash judgments. Why don't you listen to Bao'er's words first?"
In this way, the emperor had to hold back for the time being.
Under the gaze of everyone, Lin Bao'er was not panicked at all, and she calmly told what happened last night.
...
"You said the window was sealed tightly, then how did you get out?" The emperor frowned.
Lin Bao'er lied without thinking, "Your Majesty, I also discovered it by accident. There is a secret passage under the bed, which leads directly to the side hall, so I escaped."
"Unfortunately, the side hall was also on fire, and one of the doors happened to collapse due to the fire, so I just happened to run out."
