Marrying a Wife and Concubine Together: After Rebirth, I Remarried the Scumbag's Father on the

Just as she finished her words, she heard an old maid walk in quickly and say, "Empress, there's been an accident at the Liuli Pavilion. Miss Du was pushed into the river by another concubine and is now unconscious. The Emperor has been summoned!"

Queen Wang's expression changed drastically. She coughed suddenly and blood flowed out from the corners of her lips.

She anxiously grasped Lin Yiwan's hand and begged, "Aunt, please go and take a look. Don't let Du Lingzhi succeed. She has bad intentions. If she gets the position of empress, she will lead the emperor astray!"

Lin Yiwan soothed her softly, "Don't worry. Even if she succeeds, she may not become the next queen. Your health is the most important thing!"

She quickly gave Queen Wang acupuncture, which stopped her from vomiting blood.

She stood up and walked to the Glazed Pavilion, and saw that the concubines all had complicated expressions.

She knew that Du Lingzhi had succeeded.

She waited until the noise in the hall died down before sending someone to announce her arrival.

Xiao Ling walked out with an ugly look on his face, and a look of panic and self-blame.

When he looked at Lin Yiwan, his eyes were filled with anxiety.

He whispered, "Aunt, I didn't want to. I don't know what happened, I lost control when I saw her!"

Lin Yiwan understood that he was the emperor and those things were inevitable.

But no matter what, it cannot be calculated!

Even if Du Lingzhi has had physical contact with him now, she cannot stay in this harem.

She soothed him gently, "Your Majesty, do you know why you suddenly lost control? It's because there are drugs in this palace that can cause confusion!"

Xiao Ling was furious and hurried back to the hall.

When Du Lingzhi saw him coming back, she immediately put on a delicate and pitiful look and said, "Your Majesty? I'm in great pain!"

Xiao Ling raised his hand and pinched her chin fiercely: "Tell me, did you use dirty medicine on me?"

Du Lingzhi was in so much pain that tears were about to fall. She shook her head vigorously to deny it: "No, how could a subject do such a thing? Your Majesty, please don't be provoked by others!"

Lin Yiwan walked in slowly from outside and asked, "Miss Du, when you say others, are you referring to me?"

Du Lingzhi looked at Lin Yiwan with resentment on her face: "Madam Hou, I have just received the emperor's favor. Why are you slandering me with such eloquent words? Are you dissatisfied because I am not as well-behaved and obedient as Chen Qiuyan?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she looked at Xiao Ling and said, "Your Majesty, the Marquis's wife is extremely ambitious. She wants to control your harem and treat you as a puppet. How can you still believe what she says?"

Xiao Ling's expression suddenly changed, and he raised his hand and slapped her hard: "How dare you!"

Du Lingzhi struggled to argue, "No, Your Majesty, think carefully. The Empress obeyed Lin Yiwan's every word. She wants to dominate the world!"

Before Xiao Ling could say anything, Lin Yiwan narrowed her eyes and smiled.

She slowly walked up to Du Lingzhi and said, "You are quite eloquent. If I really had the power to cover up everything, my father and mother wouldn't have fled to the northern border. If the Queen had truly listened to me, she wouldn't be seriously ill now. She is suffering from depression caused by overwork. Everything she does is only for the Emperor!"

Du Lingzhi's whole body was shaking violently. She looked at Xiao Ling in panic: "Your Majesty, please save me. I am your woman now!"

Xiao Ling stared at her with a stern gaze: "Du Lingzhi, I only want to ask you one question, have you ever used any dirty medicine on me?"

Du Lingzhi kowtowed vigorously and hurriedly: "Your Majesty, please investigate!"

Xiao Ling looked at Lin Yiwan and said, "Aunt, please check if there are any traces of contaminated drugs in this palace. If she is truly innocent, I will give Marquis Dingxiang a favor!"

Lin Yiwan nodded: "Okay!"

She first checked the tea on the table and found nothing unusual.

A smug look quickly appeared on Du Lingzhi's face. She gritted her teeth and said, "Your Majesty, did you see that it was Lin Yiwan who wronged me? You have to take charge of this for me!"

Xiao Ling's expression suddenly became solemn and complicated. Could it be that Du Lingzhi was really innocent?

Is it that he himself cannot resist the temptation?

If that were the case, he would be so sorry to the Queen.

Just as he was hesitating, Lin Yiwan threw a piece of clothing in front of Du Lingzhi and said, "How do you explain the fragrance on it? It's sprinkled with Datura powder that can make people lose their minds. Du Lingzhi, you still dare to quibble?"

Xiao Ling was shocked all over. No wonder he thought she was the queen when he was aroused.

It turns out it was because of the Datura powder!

The evil woman should be killed!

Thinking of this, he raised his foot and kicked Du Lingzhi hard to the ground.

She wailed miserably, "Your Majesty, please spare me! I didn't know what that fragrance was, and I was kept in the dark!"

Xiao Ling didn't believe her nonsense. He angrily ordered, "Come here, search her bedroom!"

Soon, a bottle of Datura powder was brought to Xiao Ling.

His eyes were filled with coldness: "Du Lingzhi, you are so bold!"

Seeing her lies exposed, Du Lingzhi could only sob sadly: "Your Majesty, I am also forced to do so. I don't want to stay in this Glazed Pavilion forever. Since I have entered the palace, I should be favored by you. I know I was wrong, and I will never dare to do it again!"

Xiao Ling said in a deep voice, "If all the concubines use such tricks as you, then are there any rules in this harem? I will never let you off so easily. Come, drag her away and give her fifty lashes!"

Du Lingzhi screamed, "No, Your Majesty! I'm so frail, I can't bear fifty lashes!"

Xiao Ling turned a deaf ear and ordered his men to gag her and drag her away.

Soon, screams were heard from outside, which sounded extremely horrifying.

Xiao Ling looked at Lin Yiwan with some self-blame: "Aunt, I'm sorry, I did something wrong!"

Lin Yiwan said calmly, "Your Majesty, do you really think I'm meddling too much? I don't want us to have any grudges, lest someone exploit us and create an irreparable rift!"

Xiao Ling shook his head vigorously: "No, I have never thought so. Even if the court officials accuse the Zhan Yihou Mansion of wrongdoing, I will never believe it!"

Lin Yiwan saw the sincerity in his eyes. The young emperor's dependence and trust in her had never changed.

She softened her expression and said, "You dealt with Du Lingzhi, so you should give an explanation to the Dingxiang Marquis Mansion, regardless of death or injury!"

Xiao Ling nodded: "I understand. I will send someone to send her back to Dingxiang Marquis Mansion and let them reflect on what kind of girl they raised and sent into the palace!"

Lin Yiwan didn't stay any longer, turned around and left quickly.

At this time, the nanny came in to report that Du Lingzhi could not bear the pain and had fainted.

Xiao Ling quickly ordered: "Send her back to Dingxiang Marquis Mansion, including her maids!"

Du Lingzhi, covered in blood, was sent back to the Du Mansion, which scared the idle marquis Du Wenguang so much that he broke into cold sweat.

He never expected that his daughter, who had left home half a year ago, would be sent back in such a miserable state, and he didn't know whether she was dead or alive.
