Cui Lin reacted and said sternly: "Qian Baokun, you can't slander me. I just couldn't see someone colluding with the concubine and the prince to deceive His Majesty, so I spoke angrily. Zheng Kun and I have never known each other, let alone Mrs. Xuan will enter the palace today..."
"Are you so kind?" Qian Baokun was disdainful.
Cui Lin said angrily: "Why can't I? My Cui family is loyal to the imperial court, and I, Cui Lin, am dedicated to your majesty..."
"Ah."
A sudden chuckle from the side made Cui Lin stop talking, and his tone almost choked him to death.
Xiao Yan seemed to have watched a farce. When he saw Cui Lin jumping up and down and talking about justice and loyalty, he smiled half-heartedly: "So Cui Shangshu is so loyal to His Majesty. It can be seen that you and Mrs. Xuan were in love last night, clinging to each other. When you express your heartfelt feelings, do you think you are thinking of His Majesty?"
Cui Lin felt like he had seen a ghost: "What nonsense are you talking about!"
Mrs. Xuan burst into tears and choked with sobs: "Master Xiao, I was just accidentally involved in the secrets of the palace. I never meant to harm you. I don't even know Zheng Kun. Why are you slandering my reputation like this..."
She cried hard when she raised her head:
"Your Majesty, I have been a widow in the Xuan family for many years. I have never dared to get too close to a man, and I have never done anything wrong to damage the lintel of the Xuan family. Governor Xiao actually slandered me like this. How can I survive in the future? It’s better to just die..."
Mrs. Xuan cried extremely pitifully, and many people in the palace looked at Xiao Yan with frowns.
Xiao Yan raised his thin lips and said, "If Mrs.
"In the west of the city, the Cui family's old house, the bamboo forest in the backyard, the sky and the ground, Cui Shangshu's sword will never grow old."
The crying in Mrs. Xuan's mouth stopped suddenly, and her face turned pale instantly: "You..."
"It seems that Mrs. Xuan still remembers it?"
"I'm not……"
Mrs. Xuan subconsciously wanted to deny it, but she saw Xiao Yan's eyes were cold and he didn't argue with her at all. Only his voice was completely different from before, and it was even more similar to Cui Lin.
"A Tong, you also know that I have been having a hard time in the court during this period. That eunuch Xiao Yan plotted against me and made me break my trust before the Holy Emperor. His Majesty was even more angry and disgusted with me because of Lu Qingfeng's incident. I originally I want to use the Queen Mother to intercede and find a way to get you to leave the Xuan family, and then I will marry you to the Cui family through a matchmaker, but now..."
"I have become the laughingstock of the whole court, and the Cui family is even more implicated by me. They are controlled by others and suffer setbacks one after another. I'm afraid that if this continues, the Cui family will follow in the footsteps of the Lu family."
"I can't marry you, lest you suffer the consequences of the Cui family. That guy Xiao Yan is cruel and vicious. If he knew about you and me, I'm afraid even the Xuan family wouldn't let him go. Although I'm willing to give up on you, I don't want you to suffer. , after tonight you will be your Mrs. Xuan. Although His Majesty does not like the Xuan family, as long as the Queen Mother is here, he will never treat you badly..."
"you shut up!"
"you shut up!!!"
Mrs. Xuan's face turned pale. Listening to the vivid and "affectionate" words in Xiao Yan's mouth, her charming face was filled with fear.
Cui Lin's face was even more panicked than Mrs. Xuan's.
What Xiao Yan said was clearly what he said when he met Mrs. Xuan last night.
In order to make Mrs. Xuan devoted to him and to win over the Queen Mother to be used by the Cui family, he silenced the Cui family at the critical moment. Cui Lin supported his sick body and had an affair with Mrs. Xuan, who was much younger than him. Later, the two hugged each other. Complaints to each other.
What Xiao Yan said just now was exactly the same as what they said last night, even the tone and words were the same.
Cui Lin's palms were filled with cold sweat, and his face became even more ugly when he met the questioning eyes of his son and daughter-in-law.
Xiao Yan ignored the discussion in the palace and only turned to look at Mrs. Xuan, who was lying on the ground and trembling:
"You really don't know Zheng Kun, and you don't know that Cui Lin will plot against me today, because he is not at ease with you. He not only wants to use you and the Xuan family to win over the Queen Mother to advise the Cui family, but also wants you to be his wife in the palace. He is a walking insider, but he is afraid that you will accidentally leak the news, and that you will not be able to be naturally frightened by seeing the dead, so even you are just a part of his plan tonight."
"He knew that you admired him and deliberately revealed the Cui family's difficulties in front of you. He knew that you would hate me because of the rift between him and me. Moreover, you were resentful of His Majesty. You resented his refusal to replace him after he ascended the throne. I summoned the Xuan family back and resented his unwillingness to help the Xuan family. If you could see him making a fool of himself in public and being plotted against, you would be extremely happy."
"It's true that you didn't conspire with Cui Lin, but Cui Lin had already figured it out. Even if he didn't tell you what he was going to do, as long as you heard Zheng Kun's words and knew that I actually colluded with the deposed queen to deceive the king, you would I will not hesitate to choose to follow the path he has arranged long ago."
"You are his chosen chess piece, and you are also the one he chose to raise the knife against me tonight."
Mrs. Xuan's deepest secrets were exposed by Xiao Yan's words. She felt that everyone in the palace was focusing on her. What Xiao Yan said about Cui Lin using her made her feel as if she was in a cold winter ice cellar. All infected with bone-chilling cold.
“Mrs. What about him?"
"When he plotted against you, he never thought about how the governor would deal with you if he failed tonight, and he never thought about how ruined your reputation would be..."
Xiao Yan laughed lightly, making it difficult for Mrs. Dexuan to stabilize her mood.
"Your affection only fulfilled Cui Lin's plot against me. It's really... pitiful."
Mrs. Xuan's eyes turned red a little bit, and she held her palm tightly and raised her head.
"Are you really plotting against me?!"
She looked at Cui Lin with red eyes and asked with tears in her eyes:
"You said you admired me, that you had feelings for me as early as when I married into the Xuan family, and that you would have taken me back to the capital if His Majesty hadn't stopped you."
"We had an old relationship back then. After I returned to Beijing, you led me to fall in love with you again. I was willing to use the Xuan family to force the Queen Mother for you, but it turns out that you only regarded me as a pawn from the beginning to the end?!"
"Cui Lin, how dare you do this to me?!"
As soon as Mrs. Xuan finished speaking, the hall was filled with gasps.
Although Mrs. Xuan is said to be a widow and was called aunt by Emperor An, she is actually only forty years old. She still has the charm of her body and her eyebrows can still show the stunning beauty of her youth. Cui Lin is older than her, nearly fifty years old, and is called A cry from Cui Gong and Cui Shangshu.
But I didn’t expect that Cui Shangshu was old-hearted and knew how to seduce? !
At this moment, the erotic news about Cui Lin and Mrs. Xuan almost overwhelmed everyone's shock that the He family's descendants were still alive.
