"Just wait. If Xiangling refuses to confess after being tortured, I will naturally give you a chance to defend yourself."

Jin agreed and his face turned pale.

The Queen is right.

I just agreed.

The queen wants to deal with the people around her.

How can I be so nosy?

'boom'.

There was a muffled sound, followed by Xiangling's scream.

Jin Da Ying shuddered and finally came to his senses.

He suddenly turned his head and looked in Xiangling's direction, and immediately lost all strength.

But she didn't say anything, which made Xiangling feel that the other party was going to give up on her completely.

Two more blows were struck, and Xiangling cried out, "Queen, spare my life! I am willing to speak!"

Qingying raised her hand and the board stopped.

Xiangling was dragged again and knelt down at the foot of the stairs.

Ignoring Jin's nervous expression, Xiangling wailed and kowtowed repeatedly, "Empress, it was my young mistress who was dissatisfied with Concubine Hui's previous embarrassment during her visit, and forced this servant to do this cruel thing."

"Please, Queen, please forgive me..."

Xiangling's words made Jin's face change instantly.

"Xiangling, what nonsense are you talking about? I'm just a prostitute. Where can I get the Achyranthes knee powder? Not to mention two hundred taels of silver?!"

"Who bribed you to slander your master like this?!"

Xiangling laughed miserably.

"My lady, I am your servant, but the Empress is the master of the six palaces. I dare not lie in front of the Empress."

"You yourself said that you are a noble lady of the Yu family. Even if you are discovered, the emperor will not take your life. You will do everything possible to protect me."

"But I was caned, and you remained indifferent. Please forgive me, my lord. I really can't hide this from you..."

Xiangling knelt on the ground, her voice sounded a little muffled, but very clear.

Every word he said made Jin Ying grit her teeth in hatred.

Having been in the palace for so long, she has already seen the current situation clearly.

What noble lady of the Yu family.

Once she entered the Forbidden City, she was afraid that in the eyes of high-ranking concubines like the Empress, she would not even be as good as a palace maid from the Eight Banners.

Moreover, the queen is from a noble family, and the aunt and niece control the current harem. What qualifications do I have to mention the word "noble lady" in front of her?

Seeing Xiangling like this, I really wanted to pull out the hairpin on her head and take her life!

But the queen was still there, she couldn't and didn't dare.

She turned on her knees and said, "Your Majesty, I don't know who has instructed Xiangling to slander me like this. I don't like Concubine Hui, but I have never intended to harm her child. I beg Your Majesty to understand."

"And the eunuch kept saying that Xiangling gave him two hundred taels of silver."

"Your Majesty knows how much my monthly salary is. The Ministry of Internal Affairs also has records of how much I brought into the palace from the Joseon Dynasty. Now, how can I get two hundred taels of silver for a promise?"

"If you really have that much money, you'd rather buy some more food and clothes from the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Why would you want to harm someone else?"

"Please understand, Your Majesty. I really didn't do it!"

Qingying was a little surprised by Jin's straightforward answer.

If what Jin promised is true, there are so many loopholes in this matter.

Qingying glanced at Xiangling and saw a hint of panic flash across her face.

Something moved in my heart.

Could it be that there is someone else interfering in this matter?

"Xiangling, you said you were acting on the orders of Jin Yingying regarding this matter of the Achyranthes knee powder. So why not tell me where Jin Yingying got this stuff?"

"Where did the hundreds of taels of silver used to bribe Xiao Luzi and his men come from?"

In Xiangling's opinion, the Queen Mother did not like Jin Da Ying and would not investigate the matter in detail.

Therefore, she never expected that Jin promised to change the queen's mind with just a few words.

She was in severe pain after being hit with several boards.

I almost lost the ability to think.

The Queen's question stunned Xiangling, and she didn't know how to answer for a long time.

Qingying originally thought that this matter would only take a few words to resolve, but she didn't expect there would be such a 'surprise'.
