Chapter 1309 The Widow Queen
Feeling her father's gaze, Rong Huilan finally felt relieved. However, before she could really breathe a sigh of relief and find a way to guide everyone to suspect Qin Wansha, she heard Qiao'er say again without turning her head: "Your Majesty! I dare not lie. The people that Fu Jin found did not go to harm the old lady. Fu Jin wanted to harm only the family of Princess Yuzun from the beginning to the end. I don't know why the old lady got into trouble in the end. In addition to me, I also know about this matter. Aunt Lan who found someone can testify. I dare not blame the emperor. Please forgive me!"
After listening to Qiao'er's words, not only the people in the second and third rooms were in chaos, but even Rong Zhangshi was shocked.
On the contrary, only Qin Wansha, who was sitting aside like a bystander, slightly raised the corner of her lips, stretched out her hand to hold Rong Zhangshi's hand to comfort her, and continued to watch the lively drama below with a look like watching a play.
In fact, all of Rong Huilan's thoughts had been seen through by everyone.
Indeed, Rong Huilan is usually an excellent boudoir girl who acts prudently and does not show her expression.
However, in the current crisis of life and death, even Rong Huilan did not hide her expression, and almost put everything she thought on her face for the public to see.
Qiao'er is indeed just Rong Huilan's maid, and she is loyal, but no matter who the life is, it is life.
Spreading rumors about Xun Gui and murdering others are not the same crime, let alone the same result. Even Qiao'er, a loyal maid, is afraid of it.
What's more, Rong Huilan's words that hinted at Qiao'er to bear the crime made Qiao'er put down her worries in an instant.
Who said that only the life of the master is life, and Qiao'er and other servants are not life?
Rong Huilan hadn't figured out what was wrong with Qiao'er, why she betrayed her like this, so she could only scream: "You're talking nonsense!!! Qiao'er!!! Are you crazy!!! Why are you trying to hurt me!!!"
Qiao'er lowered her head, and didn't even look back at Rong Huilan.
In fact, wasn't Qiao'er in pain? !
Her back was very stiff, and her hands on the ground were shaking. If Qiao'er had some guilt in her heart, it had all disappeared at this moment.
Qiao'er was very smart. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been chosen as Rong Huilan's personal maid, let alone the position of a first-class maid.
However, it was precisely because of this intelligence that Qiao'er understood that she had become a scapegoat in Rong Huilan's eyes.
Qiao'er had thought about taking all the blame before, but what she thought was fundamentally different from what Rong Huilan was forcing. No one would really put their own life aside, not to mention... the emperor's attitude was already very clear, and Qiao'er knew that Qin Wansha was actually the future queen that the emperor had chosen.
In such a situation, it was not difficult to imagine the choice Qiao'er would make.
"Fujin, turn back." Qiao'er only said this to Rong Huilan, and then she prostrated herself in the direction of Xiao Qichen as if she had confessed her guilt.
At this moment, the people from the second and third rooms who were kneeling below were all going crazy. What was going on? ! Who killed Madam Rong? !
