Chapter 336: Everyone is responsible for their own actions But

the woman didn’t know and was still crying: “Back then, we had a daughter with great difficulty, but she was stolen away by a fellow villager and sold to the capital. We sold everything we had to find our daughter for so many years, but you still found us and said that our daughter was a maid in your place!”

Later, her husband said he wanted to meet his daughter, but he left for more than ten years without any news. She went to ask about Concubine De, but she never got any useful information.

People of her class could not get in touch with aristocratic families like the Chengguo Mansion.

Lu Yin was a close maid beside Concubine De. Her daughter never showed up easily, and she was the same. Even if she asked at the door of the Chengguo Mansion, no one would recognize her.

Although Concubine De often set up tents to distribute porridge when she was young, the women of noble families must wear veils on their faces when they go out. This is the rule.

It's just to spread the reputation of the kind-hearted daughter of the Duke of Cheng's mansion, not to help beggars sincerely.

Concubine De is so proud that she looks down on those beggars who can't even afford to eat. She wants to wrap herself up from head to toe. How can she allow them to peek at her true appearance? It

was because of this that Concubine De dared to show her face in front of Lu Yin's biological parents. After learning that she was going to enter the palace, she coaxed and tricked Lu Yin's father into entering the palace, saying that it would allow him to take care of Lu Yin up close.

Over the past decade, Mute Slave has been handling corpses and raising piranhas for Concubine De. It is probably because Concubine De has been threatening Mute Slave with Lu Yin's safety.

Therefore, when Mute Slave saw Lu Yin's corpse and knew that Lu Yin was killed by Concubine De, he lost his mind and became so angry that he disregarded his own life and wanted to hunt down Concubine De in the palace.

The string in his head broke, and his beliefs collapsed. People who lost their minds would lose their judgment of the outside world. He himself did not know when a knife appeared in his hand.

He only knew that he had to kill Concubine De to avenge his daughter.

After that woman, the Mirror Division sent two eunuchs over. Concubine De did not know those two eunuchs at all.

But they said, "When the Imperial Concubine fell into the water, it was the Empress Defei who ordered Lu Yin to let us dive in and tie up all the water plants. If the Empress Dowager's people had not taken action in advance, the Imperial Concubine would have been pushed into the water by the Empress Defei's people. If a person who can't swim sinks to the bottom of the lake, he will be entangled by the water plants while struggling in panic, and he will surely die."

"Your Majesty, at that time, the Empress Defei asked Sister Lu Yin to deal with the servants, but Sister Lu Yin had good intentions and couldn't bear to let the servants lose their lives, so she concealed the truth and transferred the servants to a remote palace, and only told the Empress Defei that she had dealt with the servants."

"Originally, we would not come forward to testify against Concubine De, because we also know that it is a fact that she murdered Concubine Huang, and once we tell it, our lives will be in danger. But she...even killed her personal maid who had served her for more than ten years. If we don't expose her crimes, it will be difficult to comfort Sister Lu Yin's soul."

As witnesses appeared one by one, more and more of Concubine De's crimes were gradually revealed.

She had given up on defending herself. After the last witness finished speaking, she slowly stood up, dusted off the dust on her body, and pulled a mocking smile at the corner of her mouth: "Yes! I have done so many bad things, I deserve to die."

She looked at Emperor Xuanwu with a burning gaze: "Then do you dare to swear to heaven that you have no idea about what I have done?"

The emperor frowned slightly, but Jiang Xinyue knew that what Concubine De said at this time was true, just like when she dealt with those concubines who wanted to harm her, it was all calculated by the emperor.

She just followed the plot that the emperor wanted.

Defei smiled coldly: "I was the one who killed the Empress's child, but you were the one who killed the Empress, just to help Jiang Xinyue ascend to the throne. Now you want to put me to death for her, you have such a cruel heart!"

"The Sixth Prince is your son, but the Third Prince is not? He pleaded for me because he was filial. Why did you deprive him of his rights as a prince for this? You are just afraid that he will block the Sixth Prince's way, right? Shen Ye, your love is too terrible, and your hatred is too terrible, so I had a clear goal from the beginning, I only wanted your throne. Even if I kill everyone in the harem, it is not because of jealousy, but just to eliminate dissidents for my goal."

"If it weren't for Jiang Xinyue...if she hadn't disrupted my plan, you would be terminally ill now and let Xuan'er inherit your throne!"

She lost to Jiang Xinyue, so she firmly believed that one day, the emperor would be defeated by Jiang Xinyue, and the sixth prince would be the one who inherited the throne.

In this palace, the emperor is not the only one who can dominate everyone and decide everyone's life and death.

There is another kind of people, like her and Jiang Xinyue, who are ruthless and loveless in their hearts, know clearly what they want, and go forward bravely for it without fear.

But Jiang Xinyue is more powerful, because she also has unparalleled beauty, as well as insight into people's hearts and the ability to brainwash people.

Beauty plus any one skill is a killer move, and Jiang Xinyue is omnipotent.

She can control the emperor's heart and keep her own heart. She never hurts people on her own initiative, because she will always stand on the top of the mountain, so that people below can't help but want to pull her down.

Then, she fights back.

This is her brilliance and the key to her victory.

Defei was suppressed by Chengguogong since she was a child. She has never been favored by her father, and she has always been instilled with the cognition that if a person has no value, he will be abandoned.

That's why she is like a crazy woman and killed so many people.

She killed people who were harmful to her and useless!

Emperor Xuanwu's patience had reached its limit. He flicked his sleeves and said coldly, "You are still making excuses for yourself at this point. It seems that you are tired of living. In this case, I will give you poison!" "

Father!"

The third prince wanted to plead for mercy, but Concubine De shook her head at him and said resolutely, "Everyone has his own responsibility. I did all the things they said. It has nothing to do with the third prince, and it has nothing to do with the Chengguo Mansion. Your Majesty, please don't take advantage of this to splash dirty water on my father's head. I know that I have committed a serious crime and am willing to die."

She would rather die than go to the torture chamber and Fengxian Palace and live like a dog.

She also hoped that Jiang Xinyue would take better care of her Xuan'er because the third prince had lost his biological mother.

To be honest, she was convinced that she lost to Jiang Xinyue.

The queen entrusted her orphan to Jiang Xinyue because she believed in her character, and she bravely went to her death and stopped entangled with him because she believed in Jiang Xinyue's noble character.

The third prince did not need to be raised under her name. As long as she was the one in power, the third prince would not have a bad life.

She was used to being selfish in her life. This was the first and last time she planned for the third prince.
