Concubine Hui's pupils suddenly dilated, and her whole body was shaken.
"This... this..." She was caught off guard and couldn't say a word for a moment.
"How is this going?"
"What's going on?" Shen Muchi looked at Concubine Hui with a sneer: "You ask me?"
Concubine Hui was caught off guard by this sudden change. Before she could react, she subconsciously touched the things scattered on the ground with trembling hands.
But when his fingertips touched those things, he suddenly trembled, and suddenly came back to his senses. He only felt that his hair stood on end, and a layer of cold sweat suddenly broke out on his body.
"No, I... I don't know, I really don't know..." She raised her head and looked at Shen Muchi.
But now she looks pale in everything she says.
"The things were found from your dormitory. You don't know. Do I know?"
"me……"
Concubine Hui was speechless. She stared at the people in the room. They all looked at her with surprise. They stepped back one by one, as if they had already determined that she was the one who was pretending to be a ghost. Similar.
She suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness: "I...I don't know where this thing came from."
"Yes...yes...someone framed me and deliberately framed me."
"Yes...yes...it must be like this..."
The thought of this possibility was like a life-saving straw for a drowning person. Concubine Hui raised her frightened eyes and pointed at Mu Qingchao.
"It was you, you deliberately framed me, right?"
Yes, she has never been involved in this matter. So why did Mu Qingchao have to search the Sicui Palace?
He must have arranged everything in advance and planned to frame her.
When she thought of this, she turned to face Shen Muchi, walked a few steps, and knelt at his feet: "Your Majesty, think about it, I have no enmity with Beauty Zhong, why do you pretend to be a ghost to scare her?
This must be someone who deliberately framed my concubine."
Mu Qingchao stood outside the crowd, always looking calm. Even when he was criticized by Concubine Hui, his expression did not change too much.
It's just that when I heard Concubine Hui's words, she added something unexpectedly.
"The reasons for harming people...actually there are many.
For example, Concubine Hui, you and Meiren Zhong live in the same palace, and the outsiders who are at odds with you only see the surface. Maybe you two have already been at odds with each other?
Or maybe you have a really good relationship with Beauty Zhong, so you see that Beauty Zhong has been in the palace for such a long time and has been unable to be favored for a long time, so why don't you think of a way to help her retain her favor?"
This is not the first time everyone has seen Mu Qingchao's ability to talk black. He can turn black into white and white into black.
In one sentence, the lightness can make everyone speculate about this matter.
Indeed, didn't Meiren Zhong ask Shen Mu to come to Sicui Palace belatedly in the name of fear?
The reason why she came that night can be regarded as Sima Zhao's intention.
When Concubine Hui heard this, she became even more furious and stared at her with a pair of hateful eyes: "Shut up!
It's clearly you, a thief who calls himself a thief, how can you have the dignity to talk nonsense here?
You, a persecutor who brings disaster to the country and the people, how many people do you have to harm before you can do this? Why don’t you die?”
Until now, she didn't have to think carefully about every word. "Why aren't you dead?" was the most poisonous resentment in her heart.
But even so, Mu Qingchao still didn't move at all. Why did she want to die? She wanted to send these people to hell one by one.
In the previous life, when the late emperor passed away, the Minister of Rites was the first to propose "killing the demon concubine".
She still remembers this kindness from her son to this day.
"Catch the thief?" The smile on Mu Qingchao's face became even bigger. Compared with Concubine Hui's complaints and curses, her voice was clearer and more pleasant, and she was able to do it with ease.
"The Ai family doesn't understand what Concubine Hui said. Do you think all this was arranged by the Ai family?
But today's search for the palace was brought up by Beauty Zhong, and the Ai family was just following the trend.
According to Concubine Hui's intention, the Ai family should just let it go. Even though you searched Chaoyun Palace to the ground, you shouldn't touch your Sicui Palace.
That way, it’s not considered a long-planned plan, right?”
"What?"
Concubine Hui was startled: "Search... search the palace, was it proposed by Miss Zhong?"
At this moment, Concubine Hui turned her head and cast a pair of spiteful eyes on Zhong Yingying. She meant to question, "Well, why are you searching the palace?"
Zhong Yingying lowered her head with a guilty conscience, not daring to look into her eyes.
"I...I don't know why things turned out like this." Zhong Yingying's voice was as thin as a mosquito: "I originally just wanted to search Chaoyundian."
"Then what was found?" Concubine Hui asked.
Zhong Yingying: "No."
Concubine Hui almost wanted to laugh. She fawned over the Zhong family and had always been close to Zhong Yingying. However, she did not expect that the person closest to her would be the instigator of today's bad luck.
Zhong Yingying also saw Concubine Hui's dissatisfaction. She defended herself in a low voice: "But...but I don't know. I...I don't know why these things were found from your palace."
"Does Mrs. Zhong mean to disassociate herself by saying this?"
Mu Qingchao would always insert two sentences at critical moments: "If I don't know a word, I will have nothing to do with you?
You and Concubine Hui live in the Sicui Palace together, eat and live together, and are like sisters. The Ai family thinks that no one is closer to Concubine Hui than you. You should know best whether she does these things.
Now, don't say that what happened today is all because of you. Even with this deep love between children and sisters, you should fight for her. Now it's better to take it all away from yourself.
Alas, it’s a good thing that the Ai family doesn’t have such sisters, otherwise, I would have vomited to death.”
Mu Qingchao was good at diverting misfortune, diverting the conflict with just a few words and instigating the relationship between Concubine Hui and Meiren Zhong.
Originally, Concubine Hui's anger was directed at her, but now her eyes were fixed on Zhong Yingying.
Yes, if she hadn't caused trouble for no reason today, how could she have caused such a big disaster?
This incident started because of her, but she has been silent from just now to now, like an outsider, and even refused to say a word of mercy for her.
Thanks to her always treating her like a sister, she turned out to be so unkind.
Zhong Yingying was a little frightened by Concubine Hui's gaze, so she moved back a few steps.
"You...don't look at me, I don't want to do this either."
She has always been submissive, and I feel pity for her, but in the eyes of Concubine Hui, she is so ridiculous. Under such a well-behaved skin, there is such a filthy soul.
"You don't want me to look at you, but you should talk!" Concubine Hui was a little excited.
"You stay with me every day. Do you think I might have made these things?"
She is now surrounded by crises, but she is isolated and helpless. There is no one around her who can help her. Even if there is only one person, just a few words to help her, she will not be so desperate.
But Zhong Yingying stood there with a white face and bit her lower lip, but she couldn't say a word.
"Please speak!"
"I said that I have never had any quarrels with you, and I have never thought of pretending to be a ghost to help you maintain your favor."
