King Chu lowered his eyes and ignored it.

Concubine Qin pretended to be pitiful and said: "My son, you don't know how vicious Jin Yue is. It's her who caused my feet to become like this."

Then, the confidant next to her, the nun, told how Jin Yue burned Concubine Qin.

Seeing that King Chu's face became darker and darker as he listened, Princess Qin was sure that her son must have been angry because she was bullied by Jin Yue.

She thought bitterly that if Jin Yue hadn't died, she would have thrown the little bitch into the stove and burned her alive.

King Chu stared at Concubine Qin with a pair of sharp eyes and asked word by word: "Is this how you humiliated her?"

Concubine Qin was stunned. In her opinion, it was absolutely impossible for King Chu to speak to her in such a tone.

"You, how can you say that?"

King Chu's face became even more gloomy: "My majestic Princess Chu was actually ordered to act like a lowly servant by you. Isn't this humiliation? She did it deliberately in front of others!"

How could Princess Qin ever expect her son, who had always been obedient and filial and would never disobey her, to talk to her like this?

Her lips were trembling with anger, and she said angrily: "You blame me? You actually blame your mother who gave birth to you and raised you for an unrelated bitch?"

King Chu's face was as cold as ice: "She is my wife and the benefactor who brought me back from death."

"Nonsense, it was obviously the ghost doctor who saved you, what does it have to do with her."

"She was the one who led the ghost doctor, and she was the one who exchanged her life for my life."

"Someone must be talking nonsense in front of you. That ghost doctor was..."

Before she could finish speaking, King Chu said impatiently: "Lin Hui, come and tell the concubine the truth."

Lin Hui stepped forward and explained the strategy Jin Yue had arranged to save the prince from the beginning.

If you want to save King Chu, you must find the real culprit and prevent King Chu from being poisoned again just after being rescued.

Therefore, Jin Yue's arrogance in the palace, saying that there was a way to save King Chu, was actually a trap set up to lure out the murderer.

The fake ghost doctor living in the palace is actually a lead that can lead to the real ghost doctor and the poisoned murderer...

After Lin Hui finished speaking, Concubine Qin was shocked that Jin Yue had such a profound scheming.

Killing three birds with one stone, this is not considered scheming, it can be called a strategy.

For the first time, she had the thought of regret in her heart. Jin Yue had such a great talent. If she stayed with Chu Heng, it would be the best help for her son.

Seeing Concubine Qin's face darken, King Chu said coldly: "My mother was poisoned, and my wife risked her life to save her. If it were my mother and concubine, who would you choose?"

Concubine Qin knew that the King of Chu was blaming her, and she felt ferocious in her heart for a moment.

She covered her face and cried sadly: "Son, you have separated from me after all."

"Since my mother and concubine are living in the palace, it's better to enjoy her old age in peace. I can't bear my mother and concubine's hard work. You don't have to worry about the big and small things in the palace."

"You, you want to take away my power to run the family?"

"I'm just worried that the mother-in-law will work hard. The mother-in-law will definitely fulfill the child's sincere filial piety, right?"

Concubine Qin was suddenly heartbroken and looked like she was about to faint.

King Chu was too lazy to watch her act, so he turned around and left.

Lin Hui followed King Chu and asked cautiously: "Your Majesty, the key to the treasury is still with the concubine."

"It's time to replace the treasury door. Xuantie is good."

Lin Hui understood instantly, and then King Chu said: "Send someone to keep an eye on everything here."

Lin Hui immediately said: "My subordinates will do it now."

After knowing that Jin Yue died, Meng cried in tears every day. Mrs. Hou's face was already swollen. After crying for three days, her face was so swollen that she could no longer see.

The atmosphere in the house was gloomy, but privately, Mrs. Zhen was secretly pleased with herself.

When she came to the hall, she looked worried and sad and said, "Master, I'm just afraid that something bad will happen to me."

Mrs. Hou glared at her fiercely and said angrily: "Shut your crow's mouth."

Mrs. Zhu suddenly felt aggrieved and said: "Sister, I know you feel uncomfortable now, and I don't feel uncomfortable either. I have watched Yue Yatou grow up, and I love her no less than you, sister."

Mrs. Lao Hou snorted coldly: "My heart is so crooked that I can't even say the word love."

The old Marquis was already annoyed, but when he heard the two wives quarreling again, he immediately shouted: "Shut up."

Ms. Zhen hurried over and stretched out her hand to give Old Marquis Shunxin's mouth. Her careless gesture made Old Marquise's teeth sore.

Mrs. Zhen comforted her and said, "Old man, you can't be angry. Everything about this big stall depends on you!"

The old Marquis couldn't bear it anymore, sat on the chair, covered his face and started crying.

"I thought she was smart, but she turned out to be purer than Yumu. She changed her life for others, but now who says she is so nice..."

When the old Marquis cried like this, a gash was opened in an instant.

The eyes of everyone in the Hou family were red, and everyone from the oldest to the youngest started crying.

As if she didn't think everyone was sad enough, she continued, "I'm afraid our Yue'er won't be able to enter the imperial mausoleum."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.

Madam Lao Hou's face was distorted: "What are you talking nonsense about? My Yue'er is a serious Princess of Chu, why can't she be buried in the imperial mausoleum?"

The second uncle who had been silent spoke up: "We also heard the message from the girl next to Yue'er that Yue'er exchanged his life for his life, but who in the whole city of Huajing has said this?"

Everyone: "..."

The third uncle also nodded with red eyes: "I was in the shop and heard those people say that Princess Chu was not lucky. She went crazy at night and hit the blade of a knife and died."

The old Hou stood up angrily: "I want to enter the palace, and I want to ask the emperor for an explanation."

The second uncle advised: "Without any proof, does my father still want to compete with the Di family?"

Mrs. Zhu also said: "The palace will announce the funeral in three days. I'm afraid the body will be disposed of privately, and I'm afraid they won't recognize Yue'er as the princess."

The old Mrs. Hou stood up angrily: "I will go to the Prince of Chu's Mansion to ask. I want to ask the Prince of Chu if he is really such a wolf-hearted person."

The old man hurriedly chased him out: "Just think about your swollen face, you really don't want your life."

"You don't love my granddaughter, I do. Even if I risk my life, I still want to get an explanation for my granddaughter."

——

Prince Chu's Mansion.

The King of Chu was afraid that Jin Yue would be bored, so he sat in front of Jin Yue and read.

Jin Yue could recite the books given by the late emperor, but it was even more boring to listen to them again now.

However, the reader was reading with gusto and did not notice that Jin Yue was about to fall asleep due to boredom.

At this moment, the warm atmosphere was interrupted.

The concierge came and said: "The prince and princess, an old lady, are sitting in front of the door of our palace and acting mischievously."

Everyone was stunned: "..."

With such heavy snow, whoever is so idle would not be happy to come to the palace.

Jin Yue reacted quickly. She opened her eyes wide, and because she couldn't speak, her face was full of worry.
