Lin Xilan looked at them coldly.

I know that these people are birds of the same feather as the eldest princess.

But he still asked with a very calm smile.

Prince An glanced at her, his eyes full of disgust.

He said, "Since the Regent Princess has confessed her crime, it would be better not to punish her too harshly. But such a vicious woman cannot be the wife of the royal family. It would be better to demote her to a concubine!"

I go.

She doesn't even want to be the regent princess, so why is she asked to be a concubine?

Be funny!

Everyone knew that Beichen Yuan was now in power over the Regent Princess and would definitely not let Lin Xilan die, so they had to compromise and ask the emperor to demote her to a concubine!

Anyway.

The Mansion of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery has almost fallen into decline.

There is no need to give them any face!

Lin Xilan understood.

They are paving the way for Princess Mingzhu.

Now, although Beichen Yuan cares about her, it is impossible for him to keep this love forever? By then, a concubine without the support of her mother's family and not favored by the princess will be at the mercy of the princess, right?

Can!

Who is Lin Xilan?

Will she admit it?

Who is Beichen Yuan?

Will he be tricked?

Of course, no!

Moreover.

Beichen Yuan would never let Lin Xilan take responsibility for what he had done.

He stared at the eldest princess with a cold gaze, "Royal sister, I will say it again, this matter has nothing to do with my princess!"

He didn't mind making it clear that he was the one who hired someone to do it!

after all.

Who dares to take his life?

Even Bei Chenze had an ugly expression on his face. "Father, think twice! How can you jump to such a conclusion when you don't know the truth yet? Besides, Mingzhu hasn't been cleared of the crime of hiring someone to murder Lin Xilan, so how can you convict Lin Xilan first?"

Princess Mingzhu lowered her head and said nothing.

However, the eldest princess looked at Bei Chenze hatefully!

Her good nephew, who used to follow her daughter around, caring about her and begging her to marry her daughter to him, now seems to be a fence-sitter and has suddenly changed his mind!

"Second Prince, Mingzhu was wrongly accused because of an investigation by His Majesty himself. Do you want to question your father?"

"This……"

The emperor was restless.

He just felt that he was caught between Beichen Yuan and the eldest princess.

They are all relatives.

Let him do what he wants!

As a last resort, he could only focus his gaze on Lin Xilan, coughed lightly, and signaled the other party to say a few more words.

"Does the Regent Princess have anything to say in her defense?"

Lin Xilan's gaze fell on Jiang Mingzhu.

In the bright hall, she wore the most beautiful new clothes, but her whole body was as withered as an old branch.

He is completely different from the past!

"Your Majesty, I want to ask the princess a few questions!"

"I'm sure."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

After getting the emperor's permission, she looked at Jiang Mingzhu. In the silence of the hall, she spoke coldly.

"Princess Mingzhu, let me ask you a question. Did I really order this maid to cut off one of your fingers?"

Jiang Mingzhu's eyes moved and she raised her head.

however.

But she was not looking at Lin Xilan, but Beichen Yuan behind her.

She stared at the man intently, trying to see guilt, reluctance, or even a hint of pity in his eyes.

But he was disappointed. In those phoenix eyes there was only coldness and calmness that was filled with hatred deep into the bone.

even.

After noticing who Jiang Mingzhu was looking at, he even frowned and looked away.

Jiang Mingzhu wondered vaguely, was he ignoring me?

Seeing that she didn't answer, Lin Xilan said again, "Princess, people have to pay the price for their words and choices. Do you understand what I mean? Now tell me, did I really send someone to cut off your fingers?"

She thought that if Jiang Mingzhu was a sensible person, she could still give the other party some face.

pity……

After seeing the ruthlessness in Beichen Yuan's eyes, Jiang Mingzhu suddenly withdrew her gaze and knelt down in front of the emperor.

The voice trembled.

"Uncle, it's true. It was this maid who sneaked into my room in the middle of the night, cut off one of my fingers, and told me that it was my fault that I was blocking her master's way, so she had to do it to me and told me to accept my fate!"

"Except for the Princess Regent, I have never offended anyone!"

As soon as these words came out.

The whole hall was shocked.

The smile on Lin Xilan's lips gradually disappeared, and became extremely cold.

Good words can't persuade a damn ghost!

Since Jiang Mingzhu has already made her decision, there is no need for her to be soft-hearted towards her.

She slowly took a few steps back.

"Your Majesty, we have evidence and witnesses, so we must punish him severely!"

"Yes, severe punishment!"

Looking at the people around him who were becoming more and more excited, Beichen Yuan's face became more and more ugly. He waved his long sleeves and hugged Lin Xilan in his arms!

"I want to see who dares!"

"I said it wasn't her, so it wasn't her. What? Are you guys going to question my words?"

The cold and stern words exploded in everyone's ears!

Murderous intent and hostility permeated everyone's heart.

Even the most respected old princes could not help but take a few steps back when facing this junior.

Beichen Yuan looked at the eldest princess coldly.

"Sister, aren't you curious about who did this?"

"I have already told you that this matter is..."

This is what the king did!

Before the four of them could say anything, Lin Xilan interrupted them appropriately and bowed to the emperor at the top.

"Your Majesty, since Princess Mingzhu keeps saying that I did it, then my sister-in-law happens to have a witness here!"

what?

Everyone present was slightly stunned and turned to look at Lin Xilan.

"Your Majesty, please allow my sister-in-law to summon people into the palace!"

"Can!"

The waiting time is very long.

Whether it was the eldest princess, Jiang Mingzhu, or anyone else present, they all felt uneasy.

Lin Xilan said there was a witness...

What witnesses does she have?

It is true that she did not do this, but it was also done by Beichen Yuan. I don't believe that she would push Beichen Yuan out.

Jiang Mingzhu just stared at the floor tiles in front of her.

She is crazy.

she thinks.

When she found out that the man who had loved her for many years had no sympathy for her and was even indifferent to her situation, she went crazy, completely crazy!

Beichen Yuan!

How can you be so cruel?

It was you who promised Sister Xueyao that you would treat me well. I believe in you with all my heart. Since you have not married for many years, I will try every possible means to stay by your side.

result……

Just because of Lin Xilan who came from behind, you treat me like this!

She thought with a sneer that this man was really too cold-blooded. Even if they had no feelings for each other, they were nominally uncle and nephew, but he could be so cold-blooded and ruthless.

That being the case!

Then she will make the woman he likes pay with her life!
