I Don't Want to Be a Charmboy【Quick Wear】

Lin took a deep breath. He knew in his heart that this moment would come sooner or later.

The next day, he tidied his clothes and prepared to meet the queen.

He walked in the corridor of the palace. The palace maids and eunuchs on both sides saluted him, but he ignored them and just walked straight forward with a sullen face.

Soon, he arrived at the Queen's bedroom. The maid at the door saw him and hurried over to greet him with a smile.

Lin Shen waited at the door for a while, and then the palace maid came out and told him that the queen wanted him to come in.

He walked into the bedroom and saw the queen sitting at the table, looking at him calmly. He walked up to her, bowed, and then asked directly: "Queen, is my mother's death related to you?"

The queen's expression changed slightly, but she quickly regained her composure. She asked calmly, "Why do you ask that?"

Lin Shen took a deep look and asked, "Your Majesty, don't you have anything to say to me?"

The queen was stunned and speechless for a moment.

"Your mother died in childbirth!"

"In that case, Your Majesty, why don't you meet someone?" Lin Shen waved his hand.

Soon, the man in black came with a hunched old man.

The queen was stunned for a long time, looked at the old man, and swallowed, "Who is this person?"

"This is the old eunuch who took care of my mother back then. Hasn't he always been serving the Queen?" Lin Shen sneered.

The queen's eyes widened, no longer her usual calmness.

"What on earth do you want to do?"

Lin Shen walked towards the old eunuch. When the old eunuch saw him, his eyes were filled with tears.

"Your Highness... I feel ashamed... I feel ashamed..." the old eunuch muttered to himself, tears streaming down his face unconsciously.

Lin Shen turned his eyes away, then looked at the queen. Just as he was about to continue speaking, he was interrupted by a voice.

"Mother--"

Several people looked over and found that it was Lin Yiqian.

Lin Yiqian walked in with a smile and found two people he didn't know. He paused for a moment, then walked up to Lin Shen and found that he didn't look very well.

"Shen Shen, why do you look so bad?" The man raised his hand and was about to touch the boy's face, but was dodged.

His hand stopped in mid-air, and then he looked at his mother on the small stage.

"Mother, what are you talking about?"

The queen dodged her eyes.

"Isn't the Queen going to give me an explanation?" Lin Shen ignored the man and continued the confrontation.

The queen's face turned pale. She looked at Lin Shen with a complex emotion in her eyes. Then she sighed and said, "Lin Shen, your mother's death is indeed related to me."

When Lin Shen heard this, he felt a sharp pain in his heart, but he still endured it and looked at the queen coldly.

The queen continued, "Back then, your mother was a maid in my palace. I just wanted her to help me keep the emperor. I was afraid that the emperor would take a new concubine, but I didn't kill her, I didn't..."

Lin Yiqian widened his eyes and looked at his mother in disbelief.

Didn't others say that the maid wanted to climb into bed? Why is it different from what my mother said?

When Lin Shen heard this, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he said coldly: "Are you still lying?"

The Queen pinched her fingers.

Lin Shen smiled and said, "Since the Queen doesn't want to say it, then you say it!" Lin Shen pointed to the maid beside the Queen.

The palace maid was so frightened that she fell to her knees on the ground with a look of horror.

"Xiangchan, my mother and you were once as close as sisters. You should be the one who knows best about what happened in the past, right?" Lin Shen stared at the palace maid.

Xiangchan's body was shaking violently, and she hung her head and stammered.

Lin Yiqian stepped forward, "Xiangchan, you say!"

Xiangchan looked up at the people around her and was startled when she saw Lin Shen.

"I...I...My queen...she..."

"Xiangchan, have you forgotten that it was you who put those medicines into my mother's food? Have you forgotten? She trusts you the most, doesn't she?" Lin Shen said, gritting his teeth.

The queen closed her eyes, twirled the Buddhist beads in her hand, and said nothing.

Xiangchan, who was lying on the ground, looked up at the young man in front of her, and burst into tears in fear. "I'm sorry, Ayuan, and I'm sorry, little prince."

"It was me. It was me who put the medicine in her food every day. It was me...it was me..."

When Lin Shen heard this, the grief and anger in his heart almost overwhelmed him, and the pain in his heart was like being bitten and stung by ants.

Lin Yiqian's eyes widened, first looked at Lin Shen, then at his mother, and then at the palace maid on the ground.

"Explain it to me clearly!"

Xiangchan was so scared that she cried out, "I was given a slow-acting poison by the Queen."

Lin Yiqian shook his head and looked at the young man in front of him with a sad look, "Shen Shen, don't believe her, she is lying, my mother would never do such a thing, mother, say something!"

The queen on the high throne opened her eyes and said, "I asked Xiangchan to give me the medicine."

Lin Yiqian stared at his mother with wide eyes, his hands and feet were cold.

It's all over, it's all over...

Lin Shen felt a pang of pain in his heart and bent over in anger.

"It was you who sent her to the emperor's bed. It was you! Why did you do that? She would not have been a hindrance to you at all."

Lin Shen raised his head, his eyes full of pain and despair, "Why? Why did you treat my mother like this?"

The queen was silent for a moment and said nothing.

The old eunuch who had been silent all this time suddenly spoke up, "Because she is beautiful enough, so beautiful that people will be jealous of her, and everyone will fall in love with her unconsciously. She is afraid that His Majesty will also fall in love with her."

Lin Shen was furious, "The Queen——"

The queen on the stage lost her calm look and had a vicious look on her face. "Yes, I am jealous of her. She is a palace maid with such a face, but everyone loves her. My good brother, the young master of the Zhang family, and so many people in the palace, as long as they get along with her, they all fall in love with her. Why? Isn't she just that face? If the emperor falls in love with her, what should I do? What should I do? I won't allow it!"

"So you planned to kill my mother and ruin her reputation?" Lin Shen asked angrily.

"I...I..." The queen's voice was filled with a hint of regret.

Lin Shen said coldly: "Empress, I will report your crimes to the Emperor and let him convict you."

Lin Yiqian stood there in a daze, unable to accept this fact. The mother he had always respected was actually the murderer of Lin Shen's mother.

The queen lowered her head and said nothing. The room was dead silent.

Lin Shen turned and left, leaving the Queen and Lin Yiqian in the room.

He walked out of the queen's bedroom, the grief and anger in his heart almost overwhelmed him, but he still held it back and walked straight to the emperor's bedroom.

Lin Yiqian looked at his back, feeling mixed emotions.

"Shen Shen..." he called softly, but Lin Shen did not turn back.

He knew that they would never be together, nothing was possible, they could only be enemies.

"Mother..." He looked at the queen on the stage

The queen looked at the young man leaving, shedding tears of sorrow and ignoring her son.

"No, no, it's not like that. I didn't want to kill her. I just wanted to scare her. Scare her. She left me, what should I do..." The queen muttered to herself, without any logic.
