In the dark side room, Ji Yunyao could only see the queen's gloomy face from bottom to top.
Her eyes were like knives piercing Ji Yunyao's body, but the smile of the past was still on her face.
The extreme incoordination made her look strange, and the strangeness added a hint of terror.
Ji Yunyao was slapped to the ground by the queen, and she spat out a mouthful of blood.
But the queen still had no intention of letting her go, and was walking towards Ji Yunyao step by step.
Ji Yunyao was sweating profusely as she looked at the queen, staring at the weird smile on her stiff face, her whole body started to tremble, as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.
She could no longer feel the pain on her face and body, because the aura of death permeating the Queen's body made her feel even more terrible.
Ji Yunyao suddenly felt that the queen in front of her was strange. She had not noticed her gentle and kind face on weekdays.
But now when he saw the queen looking so angry and still with her usual smile on her face, Ji Yunyao felt that she had become less real, as if she were a puppet on strings, and she seemed to be wearing a thick layer of mask.
The queen could clearly see the way Ji Yunyao shrank back. Feeling Ji Yunyao's fear, the queen didn't know what she was thinking, and the anger in her heart became even more overwhelming.
She grabbed Ji Yunyao's hair, then lifted her head and forced her to look at her: "Ji Yunyao, you are so capable, even I have been deceived by you."
"You said you wanted to kill Ji Wanrong, but in the end you put my Feng'er in jail, and even caused a big incident by being tortured. You asked the emperor to start a three-judge trial. Did you deliberately ask my Feng'er to go there? die!"
The queen stared at Ji Yunyao's pale face, but she felt in her heart that Ji Yunyao's intentions were unfathomable.
At first, she really thought Ji Yunyao was a fool for causing such a catastrophic disaster, but now that she saw her bloody body after being tortured, she suddenly changed her mind.
No one in the world would be so stupid.
She did it on purpose.
But what's the purpose? The queen didn't know.
When the queen thought of this, her eyes changed slightly, and then she reached out and pinched Ji Yunyao's neck.
She tightened her hands and slowly raised them.
Ji Yunyao struggled with all her strength, but it had no effect. She felt that the air in her throat was being squeezed out bit by bit, and her vision gradually became blurry.
The queen's face in front of her gradually became distorted, and Ji Yunyao felt as if she had seen a ghost that had shed its skin.
"Mother...mother, mother...spare my life, I...I can make the merit of the crime..."
Ji Yunyao's pale face gradually turned red due to lack of oxygen, and she squeezed these words out of her throat with great difficulty.
When the queen heard this, she suddenly let go of her hands, and Ji Yunyao collapsed weakly on the ground, wrapping her hands around her throat and sucking in air crazily.
"Oh? What idea did you come up with? How do you want to offset the merit?" The queen looked down at her.
Just now, she really wanted to strangle Ji Yunyao to death, but thinking of her deep state of mind, the queen suddenly changed her mind.
If keeping Ji Yunyao's life can be of some use, then keep her for the time being.
Ji Yunyao coughed twice, and then she gritted her teeth and said in a hoarse voice: "My daughter is also heartbroken when something like this happens to Your Highness, but all this is caused by Ji Wanrong and has nothing to do with my daughter. "
The queen listened and sneered, but forced herself to be patient and continue listening.
"After Ji Wanrong was accused by the minister, he tried his best to accuse His Highness. He was not even afraid of the anger of the empress... What does this mean?"
"She has done so much, even dragging His Highness into the water, but she has not changed her ending. What does this mean?"
The queen listened to her words and couldn't help but slap Ji Yunyao again: "Speak properly. Don't show off in front of me when death is imminent."
The queen's wrist was very strong, and with a snap, Ji Yunyao's head was hit to the side.
Ji Yunyao lowered her eyes without saying a word and suppressed the hatred in her eyes. She buried her hatred for the Queen in her heart and did not want to look at the Queen's strange face.
She swallowed, and then spoke obediently: "This means that Ji Wanrong killed eight hundred enemies and suffered a thousand losses. She had no way out, so she took action against His Highness, but this still can't change Her end."
"Her fear made me suspicious. My previous guess might have been wrong. It was Ji Wanrong who killed those people. Otherwise, why would she bite people like crazy?"
"She clearly knows that if she angers you, her life will be even more difficult. This means that she knows that she is going to die, so she is a support person and calls your highness, you and my daughter to have a hard time."
In adversity, people's minds become clearer. Ji Yunyao felt that every word he said made sense.
She has always been a smart person. For example, she discovered the secret of Mo Jie City and the secret of Ji Wanrong. Now she seems to have discovered the secret of the Queen...
Ji Yunyao spoke quietly, and felt that the queen's gaze had changed significantly. She breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that she finally had a chance to make a comeback.
She slowly raised her head and looked at the queen's face again. Even when the queen was silent, she still had a smile on her lips.
Ji Yunyao tried her best to ignore this strange appearance, and asked softly in a hoarse voice: "Mother, do you think Your Highness will be the murderer in those cases in the capital?"
"How is it possible!" The queen said without thinking: "Feng'er has been kind-hearted since he was a child. When he was around me, even if I wanted to punish those maids, he would plead for mercy and ask me to give the maids to him. he."
"How could he do anything to cover it up!"
"I also think that His Highness doesn't know how to do it. His Highness has no reason to do these things. So since Your Highness is not a murderer, what do you have to be afraid of?"
"The three-judge trial is a good thing for His Highness. Not only will it be possible to find evidence and convict Ji Wanrong, but it will also clear His Highness's innocence."
"If King Han loses Ji Wanrong, it means he has lost his right-hand man. He will be depressed for a long time, and His Highness will be able to appear as a victim and replace King Han's position in the hearts of the people."
"Although this step is dangerous, it will be the biggest opportunity after it is completed. Not only can you not stop them from investigating the case, but you must let them investigate it, and investigate it carefully."
"You are not afraid of slanting shadows when you are upright. His Royal Highness the King of Chu is shining brightly in the bright moonlight."
