After being married off by my younger sister, I became the most beloved person in the palace

Gu Zhiyin rubbed his forehead speechlessly and called Mother Yang.

"Go and find out where Gu Jinse went after she came to the mansion, and who she asked about Aunt Lin."

Which servant is so gossipy that he would tell such a thing to outsiders casually? Is he really not afraid of death?

Mother Yang left with a serious look on her face.

It was also a coincidence that Aunt Lin was under house arrest in Yizhenyuan, and the maid who originally guarded the gate of the courtyard was sick, so another maid was temporarily found to replace her. This maid was slow-tempered and greedy for money. Gu Jinse stuffed a silver note of fifty taels into her pocket, and she told her everything.

After hearing this, Gu Zhiyin's eyebrows twitched.

Gu Jinse had lived in the Prince Pingyang's Mansion. She might not know all the personalities of the servants in the mansion, but she had a general idea of ​​them, at least better than she, who had just married in.

Gu Jinse naturally knew whether the old woman guarding the place could be bribed or not.

"Tie him up and go to Chaohui Hall."

"It's already been tied up." said Mother Yang.

The old princess didn't know that Gu Jinse was asking about Lin Jianyue, and she was very happy to hear that Gu Zhiyin was here.

"grandmother."

Gu Zhiyin bowed and greeted.

"Please sit down." The old princess said with a loving face, and then asked the maid to serve tea.

Gu Zhiyin did not sit down, but looked at the old princess with a guilty look on her face: "I am here to apologize to my grandmother."

The old princess was stunned for a moment when she heard this: "What's wrong?"

Gu Zhiyin recounted what Gu Jinse had done in the palace.

"…Second sister didn't know the seriousness of the matter, and granddaughter-in-law failed to stop it. Please punish me, grandmother."

They are sisters. Gu Jinse's words and actions were inappropriate. If she didn't show some attitude, others would think that she was the one who instructed her to do so. Even if the old princess didn't think so, she had to be sensible.

The old princess had a lot of complaints about Gu Jinse, but she felt distressed when she saw her well-behaved, sensible, and well-educated granddaughter-in-law. "What does this have to do with you? Why are you asking for forgiveness? Can you sew her mouth shut? Grandmother knows. You don't have to take the blame on yourself."

This Gu Jinse is so unruly. I can't vent my anger on my granddaughter-in-law.

The old princess believes that she is not an unreasonable person.

What's more, his granddaughter-in-law had suffered so much because of that brat Fu Yunjing, and this time she was almost framed by Lin Jianyue.

If Lin Jianyue really succeeded, the old princess knew very well that given her grandson's behavior, she might be forced to divorce him.

"Thank you for your forgiveness, grandma." Gu Zhiyin smiled lightly.

"Yinyin, you are you, and your sister is your sister. The same parents cannot raise two identical people. The palace is your home. There is no need to be so cautious." The old princess held her hand and said lovingly.

Gu Zhiyin was deeply moved.

"Yes, grandmother."

"But that old woman is a gossiper. The palace cannot keep such a person. Since you are the head of the family, you can deal with her." said the old princess.

He told outsiders what happened in the mansion so easily for money, and who knows what else he will do for money in the future.

Staying here would also be a calamity.

Just in time, Gu Jinse pulled out a termite with her help.

Gu Zhiyin nodded in agreement.

After leaving Chaohuitang, she asked Mother Yang to sell the person to a pawnshop.

The old woman was so frightened that her face turned pale and she kept begging for mercy.

“Please spare my life, Princess. I only said something because she is your biological sister and it is my own fault. Please spare me, Princess. I will never dare to do that again… mmm…”

The old woman cried and wailed until she was taken away with a handkerchief stuffed in her mouth.

The slaves who were sold out basically had no good life after being sent to the human traffickers. The old woman even wanted to die.

……

After resting for five days, Fu Yunjing stepped into Yizhenyuan.

Lin Jianyue was under house arrest, but the old princess did not maliciously deduct her food, clothing and other expenses.

Fu Yunjing entered the room and sat down on the armchair.

When Lin Jianyue saw him coming, she immediately showed a look of grievance, and complained with red eyes: "Do you still remember to come and see me? I thought you forgot about me."

Fu Yunjing looked at Lin Jianyue expressionlessly: "Do you have anything to say?"

Lin Jianyue bit her lip and looked at him with tears in her eyes: "What do you want me to say? Do you believe me if I say I didn't know anything? How stupid was I to poison you? If anything happens to you, I can still live in the palace. You are my biggest support."

Her voice was gentle, and her tearful face made me feel pity for her.

Fu Yunjing's brows knitted slightly, and the balance in his heart tilted slightly, but the next moment, Gu Zhiyin's beautiful and indifferent face emerged in his mind involuntarily, like melted snow hidden on the top of a snowy mountain, clean and slightly cold.

She would not poison herself, but her original intention was to frame Gu Zhiyin.

"So you plan to use the self-torture tactic to slander the Princess of the County for poisoning you, so that she will be branded with a vicious reputation."

Lin Jianyue widened her eyes in shock, looking as if she was deeply hurt: "You don't believe me?"

"He Huan confessed it himself."

Lin Jianyue retreated again and again, shouting, "You would rather believe a servant than me, Fu Yunjing, is this how you like me?"

Fu Yunjing: “…”

So she still doesn't think she did anything wrong?

Because of his love, Lin Jianyue was able to frame Gu Zhiyin. Gu Zhiyin luckily escaped the disaster because she ate the poisonous substance herself. After the maid confessed, Lin Jianyue could still say with a clear conscience that she was innocent.

Fu Yunjing looked at Lin Jianyue deeply, as if he was meeting her for the first time.

My heart couldn't help but ache.

If she doesn't repent, how can I protect her?

"Yue'er, I'm not stupid." Fu Yunjing looked at her and said slowly.

What he meant was that with all the evidence, he couldn't just blindly cover up for her.

Lin Jianyue was slightly stunned.

After realizing what Fu Yunjing meant, his face suddenly turned pale and blue.

"Yun Jing! Yun Jing! Don't do this, I... I'm scared." Lin Jianyue stepped forward and grabbed Fu Yunjing's wrist. A look of panic appeared on her delicate face. Her eyes were slightly red, and crystal tears rolled in her eyes: "I was also bewildered for a while, so I listened to Hehuan's idea. She said that I didn't poison Gu Zhiyin, so it couldn't be considered murdering the Princess of the County. Besides, she has the protection of the old princess, and it's just that her reputation has been damaged a little, which doesn't affect her."

"Did Hehuan give you this idea?" Fu Yunjing asked in surprise.

Lin Jianyue nodded and looked at Fu Yunjing cautiously: "I don't want to be a concubine, I want to be a concubine. Now the whole capital is praising my talent. I have brought a good reputation to the Pingyang Palace, but the old princess has remained indifferent. I don't know what to do, so Hehuan gave me this idea."

What she said was half true and half false, and she clearly revealed her desire to become the prince's concubine.
