After the eldest daughter was reborn, the whole family knelt down and begged for forgiveness

After Emperor Yonghui ascended the throne, Concubine Xie's name was a taboo in the harem for a long time.

At that time, Xie was the legal wife of Prince Lin, but she asked to be divorced and became a concubine in Prince Lin's mansion. This was a strange story in Kyoto.

Later, when the emperor ascended the throne, she still lived in the old palace and was only named a noble concubine after her death. This became the second unsolved case.

After Xie's death, some people felt sorry for Concubine Xie's tragic fate, but others speculated on why Xie was despised in the first place.

In addition, because Emperor Yonghui was benevolent and the Empress was virtuous, various speculations pointed to the fact that Concubine Xie had committed an unforgivable mistake, which led to her own downfall.

Those rumors were the worst a few years ago when Lin Shaoshu was out of power in the court. Later, Lin Shaoshu gradually came to the fore. Considering the face of the adult prince, Emperor Yonghui used means to stop those rumors, which prevented the rumors from becoming more and more outrageous.

Now, when the Queen took out the Nine Palaces Secret Box at the palace banquet, it reignited everyone's gossipy hearts!

That talented woman who was once famous in Kyoto was already controversial during her lifetime. What secrets did she leave behind after her death?

Now, Concubine Xie’s old belongings are right in front of you.

Queen Wang gave the thing to Xiao Xuetang, and signaled Xiao Xuetang to open the Nine Palaces Secret Box in public and reveal the answer!

Xiao Xuetang never expected that Queen Wang went through so much trouble just because she couldn't unlock the Nine Palaces Secret Box and asked her to do it.

When he was by the imperial concubine's side, Xiao Xuetang learned how to decipher the Nine Palace Secret Box, and it was not difficult to decipher it.

However, Xiao Xuetang was worried that once the secret box was unlocked, the contents inside would bring danger to the Xie family...

But in the current situation, Xiao Xuetang is in a dilemma. How should she deal with it?

He could take the Nine Palaces Secret Box, but he could refuse to open it in front of others...

At this moment, someone could not wait to urge: "I heard that Concubine Xie and Miss Xiao had the closest relationship back then. Now, the only person who can unlock the Nine Palaces Secret Box left by Concubine Xie is probably Miss Xiao."

The person who spoke was none other than Queen Wang's niece, Wang Yueying.

Wang Yueying was wearing a Xiangfei-colored brocade dress and looked young and pretty, but the dignified yet subtle smile on her face was exactly the same as that of Queen Wang.

"This Nine Palace Secret Box is difficult to decipher, but since Miss Xiao won the first prize in the poetry competition today, she must have some real skills. In front of His Majesty and the Queen today, Miss Xiao should not hide her incompetence and pretend not to be able to decipher it, because that would be..."

"It's the crime of deceiving the king!"

Wang Yueying had a smile on her face, but her eyes were cold...

Xiao Xuetang looked at the aunt and niece who were singing the same tune and sneered in his heart, the crime of deceiving the emperor is such a big hat!

She was about to speak when Lin Xun's voice suddenly came from the main seat: "Show it to me."

Hearing Lin Xun's cold voice, everyone's attention was involuntarily attracted, and even the King of Yue was shocked and asked: "Is the Emperor's uncle also interested in this decryption?"

Lin Xun glanced at King Yue nonchalantly and said, "Is it not possible?"

King Yue...

Of course, whatever you say is what it is!

Since the Regent had already spoken, the palace servants dared not be negligent and quickly brought the things to Lin Xun.

Everyone saw Lin Xun pick up the red sandalwood box with one hand and fiddle with it a few times. As he fiddled with it, Xiao Xuetang's heart rose to his throat...

She knew that this Nine Palace Secret Box could only be unlocked using a special method, and in the whole world, only she and Concubine Xie knew the answer!

But she was worried about what would happen if Lin Xun couldn't solve it and just crushed it.

The things left by the imperial concubine would be destroyed.

The little girl seemed calm, but her pair of clear black and white peach blossom eyes stared at him eagerly, and her worry was hard to ignore.

Lin Xun raised his eyebrows slightly and said deliberately: "Why bother with so much trouble, why not just crush it directly?"

"You must not..."

Surprisingly, the Queen spoke up to stop him, saying, "Once this secret box is destroyed, the things inside will also be lost."

After saying this, Lin Xun glanced at the Queen with a half-smile and said, "I didn't expect that Her Majesty the Queen would also study mechanisms. I really admire you."

Under Lin Xun's sharp gaze, the queen's eyes flickered slightly...

How could she, a woman in the deep palace, know the mechanism? Naturally, it was that person who told her.

If Xiao Xuetang wants to get the evidence against Concubine Xie, he must do it personally!

What is inside?

Who is Xie Wanyue’s adulterer?

The queen was extremely anxious at this moment, but she was afraid that Lin Xun would see something, so she could only endure it.

Now, even Xiao Xuetang discovered that something was wrong with the Queen.

Why did Queen Wang suddenly set her sights on Concubine Xie?

Who is the person behind this who is instigating the incident to stir up trouble again?

Obviously, the key to creating trouble is in Lin Xun's hands now!

Lin Xun said, "I have been interested in mechanisms recently. How about giving this secret box to me?"

Queen...

The Queen didn't expect that the stage had been set up for so long today, and when it was almost time for the critical moment, Lin Xun suddenly intervened.

The King of Yue was also a little surprised by Lin Xun's abnormality, and whispered to him, "Uncle, the Queen gave this secret box to Miss Xiao. It's not good for you to take someone else's love away."

Lin Xun pondered for a moment and said, "What you said makes sense..."

Then, she casually untied the Buddhist beads on her wrist and threw them on the rosewood tray held by the palace servant.

He looked at Xiao Xuetang, with a smile on his face, and said softly, "I would like to exchange this string of Buddhist beads with Miss Xiao. Is Miss Xiao willing?"

Xiao Xuetang got goosebumps when Lin Xun called her "Miss Xiao".

Meeting his deep and cold gaze, Xiao Xuetang felt a chill down her spine. How could she dare to say she didn't want to?

"Everything is up to the prince."

Xiao Xuetang knelt down to express her gratitude...

Anyway, she is living in Shuiyunju now, and Lin Xun is still waiting for her to detoxify. It is better for the thing to be in Lin Xun's hands than to open it on the spot today or leave it in Queen Wang's hands!

Xiao Xuetang accepted it with pleasure.

Now, it was Queen Wang's turn to be dumbfounded.

The secret box that she had worked so hard to obtain, not only did it fail to become a bargaining chip to bring down Lin Shaoshu and the Xie family, but how did it end up in Lin Xun's hands? !

Although the queen was anxious, she still put on a dignified look and said to Lin Xun: "Your Highness, this is the concubine's old thing after all. As an outsider, I'm afraid it's not reasonable for Your Highness to give it to me."

Lin Xun said calmly: "Since the queen has given the things to Xiao Xuetang just now, this thing is no longer considered as the concubine's property."

Queen...

Can you still make such specious arguments?!

The King of Yue was watching the fun from the side and was also stunned. What did the emperor's uncle mean?

The imperial concubine’s things cannot be taken...but then Xiao Xuetang is not an outsider, right?

His uncle, the emperor, had never been interested in women, so why did he give the Buddhist beads that he never left behind to Xiao Xuetang?

Queen Wang naturally thought of this as well. Her expression changed as she said, "But Xiao Xuetang is the Third Prince's fiancée. The reason why the prince gave her the Buddhist beads just now is..."

Before she finished her words, Lin Xun spoke nonchalantly, "Queen, it was me who took over the inventory of the things in Wenyuan Pavilion. How come I have never heard of the secret box hidden in Wenyuan Pavilion? And where did you get the news, Queen?"

The queen's expression froze when Lin Xun's sharp gaze swept over her...
