Fortunately, the Guarjia family sent the palace people out early in the morning, and no one else heard Wen Ruyan's words. After scolding Wen Ruyan, Wen Ruyan was still upset, walked back and forth for a few steps, and said bitterly: "
I really don’t understand why the emperor can’t understand her true face?”
"Because she can act." Guarjia flicked her nails and sneered: "Look at her performances these days, every one of them is not exciting or good-looking. If I were the emperor, I would still be kept in the dark by her.
.”
Wen Ruyan was angry and angry, but she also knew that what Guarjia said was the truth. The queen was good at acting and had ruthless methods. They tried to deal with her several times, but all failed. Just being angry for a moment was not enough.
You should always consider the long term when using it.
Thinking of this, Wen Ruyan barely suppressed her anger and asked Ling Ruo, "What happened later, how did you convince Imperial Physician Jin? And...how could he be so bold today and dare to rob you while you were losing your ear?"
That knife that Liu Tu lost? I feel chilly just looking at that knife from a distance."
Ling Ruo smiled casually and said: "The queen can exempt herself from punishment and come to Dr. Jin, so why can't I? What Dr. Jin wants is nothing more than happiness. If I have to say one more thing, it is not to bring harm to the family."
"Could it be..." Wen Ruyan frowned and thought. She remembered that it was Ling Ruojin who called Yinzhen to summon Liu Yidao to the palace, and she said uncertainly: "You taught him how to seize Liu's butcher's knife, and it was you who taught him the eardrum.
Did you drop it on purpose?"
"That's right. After Liu Hua left, I gave Jin Mingze two choices. Either he believed in Liu Hua, a despicable person, and maybe the queen would let him die happily, or it might be miserable; or he could decide his own fate."
Ling Ruo paused and continued: "As long as he agrees, I will try to bring Liu Yidao to the palace for execution, and give him a chance to seize the knife from Liu Yidao's hand."
Wen Ruyan sighed with some disbelief: "I never thought that a helpless imperial doctor like him would dare to do such a thing."
"Once a person is cornered, he can do anything." Ling Ruo replied, "As long as he can get the knife, he can decide his own destiny instead of leaving it in the hands of others.
Let others arrange it. After that, I also promised him that I would intercede for his family and prevent the emperor from harming the nine tribes."
After listening to her narration, Guarjia patted her chest and said with some fear: "So, Sister Wen is really dangerous. But in my opinion, the worst is Liu Hua, and he doesn't want to think about it.
How did my sister help him in the first place, but she actually repaid her with kindness, but it's a pity that Doctor Jin didn't kill him."
Ling Ruo was silent for a while and said: "Originally, in my plan, there was no scene of him chasing Liu Hua. I think it was Imperial Physician Jin who felt unwilling to do so, so he wanted to kill Liu Hua for revenge, but unfortunately he failed. But it doesn't matter.
, You must always pay what you deserve, and you won’t let him do it so cheaply.”
Guarjia didn't hear the hidden meaning in Ling Ruo's words. She just said that she felt uncomfortable and comforted: "Oh, don't be sad. Anyway, you finally helped him and successfully convinced the emperor that there was nothing wrong with him."
And the nine tribes.”
Wen Ruyan was still puzzled and asked: "One thing I still don't understand is why you want Dr. Jin to admit that he is a poisoner?"
"Only if he admits it, can he confess the envoy. Otherwise, he will just say that he was wronged, and then say that the queen and Liu Hua framed him. Do you think the emperor will believe it?" Wen Ru was speechless at this question, and thought about it carefully.
I think this is indeed the case.
"Actually..." Guarjia looked at Wen Ruyan's expression and said cautiously: "If Ruqing didn't speak for the queen before, maybe the emperor would believe it. Sister, do you think so?"
Wen Ruyan glanced at her strangely, "Didn't I just say this? Even without Ru Qing, with the queen's methods, she can still find a glimmer of hope. After all, the words of Imperial Doctor Jin are too shallow.
It's not of much use. But Ruo'er, since you know this, why didn't you tell me in Yanxi Palace just now? You had to call me here with lotus root silk rose cake before you would tell me."
Ling Ruo glanced at Guarjia, saw her nodding slightly, and gritted her teeth and said, "Sister, do you really have no doubts about Ru Qing's words?"
"What do you mean?" Wen Ruyan was not angry and just stared at Ling Ruo, his eyes full of confusion.
"In our opinion, Ruqing has always been a girl with no scheming ideas, so after she entered the palace, her sister protected her in every possible way and did not let her suffer any injustice. But why did Ruqing think of sneaking into the queen's side at that time?
Even you and I would never have thought of the idea of acting as an internal agent in that situation, but Ruqing, who is so naive, thought of it. Sister, doesn't it feel strange?"
Wen Ruyan heard the clues and said with a cold expression: "What exactly do you want to say?"
"I'm afraid that Ruqing will be..." Under Wen Ruyan's stern look, Ling Ruo gritted her teeth and uttered five words, "The second Yilan!"
"Impossible!" Wen Ruyan's first reaction was ridiculous, "My own sister knows it best. She has no ambitions, but she is very smart. What's so strange about occasionally thinking of such an idea?
But sister, when will you change?
You are so suspicious. It is only because Ruqing is still thinking about us dealing with the Queen that you are so suspicious of her." At this point, she showed a look of surprise, "I understand, it was because of Ruqing's presence just now that I
When I asked you, you were pretending, weren't you?"
When talking about the latter part, Wen Ruyan's voice became a little excited. Seeing that something was wrong, Guarjia hurriedly stepped forward to persuade her: "Sister, don't be angry. Ling Ruo is also being cautious. Ruqing's performance today is indeed a bit suspicious."
Wen Ruyan said displeasedly: "So, you have the same thoughts as her?"
"This..." Mrs. Guarjia looked embarrassed. Just when she was about to say something, Wen Ruyan raised her hand and said coldly: "Okay, you don't have to say it anymore. I already understand that since you are all suspicious, you don't have to say anything."
You should tell me this, aren't you afraid that I will tell Ruqing instead?"
"Sister!" Seeing that she didn't understand, Ling Ruo said anxiously: "You and I have been sisters for many years, haven't we experienced enough? In the palace, the more suspicion you have, the more chance you can save your life. Let's talk about us.
It’s not that I deny Ruqing blindly, I just have some doubts.”
Wen Ruyan smiled coldly, "You still remember us being sisters for many years, then let me ask you, have I ever doubted you over the years?" Seeing Ling Ruo purse her lips and say nothing, she raised her voice again and said: "Say
, is there any?"
"No, my sister has never doubted me." She replied helplessly, and then said hurriedly: "But I am not Ruqing, and I will not betray my sister."
"Ruqing doesn't know either." Wen Ruyan quickly took over and said: "She is my biological sister. I know her nature better than you. Have you forgotten how she helped you while holding the dead cat?
Now that she is doubting her, if Ruqing finds out, she will be heartbroken."
