It doesn’t matter, my boyfriend is a eunuch!

"Then I will take my leave." Lin Zhiqiang raised her eyes with a look that showed she would never give up.

He supported the third lady and left.

"It's gotten so bad that we can't stop it. Are you ready?" Liu Li looked at her with some concern.

"I'm ready. I've been ready for a long time." Lin Zhihe uttered a few words.

She now sees through Lin Yingchen. He is a person who only makes decisions based on the noise. When Lin Zhihe was sensible a few times ago, he began to sacrifice Lin Zhihe to make Lin Zhiqiang successful.

Now she has made such a big fuss, just to tell him that she will not let this matter go and let Lin Yingchen deal with it himself.

"What if Minister Lin really wants to protect Lin Zhiqiang?" Liu Li raised the question in his mind.

"Why if? He just wants to protect Lin Zhiqiang." Lin Zhihe's tone contained self-mockery and helplessness.

If Lin Yingchen didn't want to protect Lin Zhiqiang, the Third Madam wouldn't have come here so arrogantly, and Lin Zhiqiang wouldn't have felt the slightest bit of guilt.

They simply thought that Xiao Taohong was just a maid, and the death of a maid wasn't a big deal.

In their eyes, the life of a maid is like grass and an ant, and no one would frown for an ant.

Today, Lin Zhihe is going to teach them a lesson.

"We can't count on Lin Yingchen anymore. Let's report to the Ministry of Internal Affairs with the witnesses and evidence." Lin Zhihe looked at Xiao Taohong who was still sleeping in the cloak.

Liu Li stepped forward to Lin Zhihe and said in a low voice, "Master, you have to think carefully. Once you report this to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, your relationship with the Lin family will never be the same again."

"Besides, this matter will most likely end in vain."

She looked into Liu Li's eyes, which were filled with the fine morning light and were very beautiful.

"I have never counted on others. I have to avenge Xiao Taohong's blood feud myself."

"Okay." Liu Li nodded solemnly and said nothing more.

Ren Minbi went to report to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the Ministry of Punishment came over soon after. A large group of people stood in the inner courtyard of the Vermillion Bird Palace.

A eunuch walked up to Lin Zhihe and bowed, "Talented man, please take a seat beside us and let us examine the body."

As a person living in the 21st century, she fully understood the operation of an autopsy, but understanding was one thing and the sadness in her heart was another.

Liu Li saw Lin Zhihe's reaction, walked over to her and helped her up, "Master, let's stand here."

After sitting for too long, Lin Zhihe's legs were numb. He had to rely entirely on Liu Li's strength to stand up, and he could only stand with his help.

“Cairen, the autopsy process is quite horrifying, and I…” The leading servant hesitated.

Without waiting for the eunuch to finish, Liu Li covered Lin Zhihe's eyes with her hands and helped her walk into the house. "Let's go. Xiao Taohong definitely doesn't want you to see her like this."

This statement left Lin Zhihe with no way to refute.

If Xiao Taohong still had a spirit in heaven, she would definitely not want him to see her in such a miserable state, even if she died in his arms.

Lin Zhihe's eyes were completely dark, and he could only rely on his senses to move forward step by step.

She knew that the road ahead must be smooth, and if there were any debris, Liu Li would definitely tell her.

She felt the warmth from Liu Li's palm and her slow breathing.

After walking a few steps, Liu Li withdrew his hand and prepared to help her back to the bedroom.

"I don't want to go back," Lin Zhihe quickly refused, "I'll wait here, you go and take care of them, don't let them..."

Before he could finish his words, Lin Zhihe began to sob again.

Ever since this happened, Lin Zhihe has never been able to accept it. Whenever he talks about Xiao Taohong, he can't utter a complete sentence and always ends with sobs.

Liu Li naturally understood what Lin Zhihe said, and immediately ran to the eunuchs in the Ministry of Internal Affairs to make arrangements.

The witnesses and evidence were so clear, but the Ministry of Internal Affairs only recorded a few things and then took Xiao Taohong's body away.

Lin Zhihe, who was far away, heard it and hurried to stop them.

The Shenxingsi, who had received the silver, was naturally easy to talk to, "Master, according to the law, our Ministry of Internal Affairs will handle the aftermath."

"No need for that this time. I will ask the Queen for permission, and we will take care of Xiao Taohong's funeral ourselves."

The eunuch did not hesitate, he bowed and turned away.

"Ren Minbi has already gone to ask for permission." After they left, Liu Li spoke lightly.

Everything went smoothly, and the Queen showed special favor and allowed Lin Zhihe to bury herself.

The Queen will definitely show mercy. After all, who doesn’t want to watch such excitement?

The stuff sent into the Lin Mansion poisoned Lin Zhihe's personal maid, and then Lin Zhihe slapped Princess Cheng and her biological mother. Who could refuse such big gossip?

Now the Lin Mansion and Lin Zhihe have become the focus of the court and the harem, and everyone is watching them.

Liu Li was familiar with Kyoto and chose a place with abundant grass and pleasant scenery for Xiao Taohong.

There are mountains, water, and many singing birds. Most importantly, it is not far from the palace, so it is very convenient for them to come and see her.

He was a lively person yesterday, but today he was lying in a small grave, pressed down by a pile of yellow earth.

Lin Zhihe turned her head away, wiped away her tears, and then looked at Xiao Taohong's grave again.

"Xiao Taohong, I am sorry for you."

She hated herself for being like this and could only say sorry palely. But the person was already dead, so to whom could she say sorry?

Liu Li couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so she walked over from the side and hugged Lin Zhihe.

He held Lin Zhihe in his arms but said nothing.

He understood Lin Zhihe's feelings for Xiao Taohong better than anyone else, so he couldn't say to her, "Don't be sad" or "It will pass."

It won't pass. When a person is gone, he is gone. Disappearing from this world is a punishment for the living, or a curse.

Those who survived would have endless longing and endless regret. He knew these thoughts better than anyone else, having experienced them more than a decade ago.

"Tell me, will Xiao Taohong be scared here alone?" Lin Zhihe shrank his head in Liu Li's arms, his voice muffled.

"No. There are so many flowers and trees around, she won't be scared." Liu Li's voice was weak and immediately dissipated in the wind.

"I hope so." Lin Zhihe said in a light tone, obviously not really believing it.

"If we stay here with her for a while longer, she won't be afraid anymore," Lin Zhihe added.

Liu Li looked at her pale face and thought that she hadn't slept for a whole day, but there was nothing she could do and she could only let Lin Zhihe do what she wanted.
