Chapter 379 Chat 1
Looking at the queen who was so close to her, the gears in Luo Xiaoran's head were running wildly, almost producing sparks.
Bridge Bean Sacks!
In the Queen's opinion, why did Huo Qingyun tell Luo Xiaoran about the real murderer he had found?
Under the instruction of Emperor Tianqi, Huo Qingyun pinned the title of the real murderer on Concubine Tang. This was a little secret between them.
What kind of mentality did Huo Qingyun have to tell outsiders about the real murderer he had found?
Unless this outsider is someone Huo Qingyun is very familiar with and can be trusted, why would Huo Qingyun risk being beheaded to leak the news?
To sum up, in the eyes of the Queen, she is someone Huo Qingyun trusts very much——
Where did she come to this conclusion?
From the Lin Yuanfang case to the Hong Shanhu case, he had indeed been imprisoned in the prison, and Huo Qingyun had indeed been working hard to get him out of the prison.
But to outsiders, they would probably think that Huo Qingyun was taking care of him because it was his duty or because he was concerned about Chen Ji.
The question comes back to the other side. Why did the Queen think that Huo Qingyun would tell her that Chen Lingyi was the one who actually killed Lin Yuanfang?
Last time, he deduced that maybe someone was instigating the Queen to target him.
At that time, he thought that Chen Lingyi used Lin Yuanfang's death to mislead the Queen and make her believe that he was the murderer, so the Queen made up the Red Coral Case and put him in the Sky Prison again.
Now think about it, I just said that the person who killed Lin Yuanfang was Chen Lingyi. The Queen, who had been in a state of anger, did not refute that I was the murderer, but asked me for evidence.
Doesn't this mean that the Queen doesn't believe that she is the murderer? This also means that Chen Lingyi is not using Lin Yuanfang's death to confuse the public and make the Queen target her.
So the question is, why did the queen insist on locking herself up in the Sky Prison and even severely punishing herself?
Luo Xiaoran felt numb from having her brain spinning so many times at once.
She needed more information to judge the queen's motives, as there were too few clues now.
"I don't understand what the Queen meant. Why would Commander Huo tell me the news he found out?"
The queen's eyelashes fluttered up and down twice, and after a moment, she growled in anger:
"Without evidence, how can I believe what you said? The person you pointed out is the eldest princess of the dynasty!"
Change the subject?
Luo Xiaoran blinked, and a strange feeling passed by in an instant, leaving her no time to catch it.
“I know Princess Qingyi’s motive for killing Commander Lin. As for the evidence, Your Majesty can look for it yourself.
If it has been done, there will definitely be traces left. If there are no traces, that is also a trace. "
"Stop talking so much! Tell me what you mean by 'motive'!" the Queen said impatiently.
"…The Queen doesn't know that Princess Qingyi seems to be particularly dissatisfied with the fact that I became the Princess of Yan.
On the way from Yizhou to Kyoto, Princess Qingyi sent assassins to kill me. Fortunately, Commander Huo fought off the assassins, and I was able to save my life. "Luo Xiaoran started by playing a pitiful role.
"So, Huo Qingyun saved your life?" the Queen interjected.
Luo Xiaoran pursed her lips. The Queen didn’t even know this. Why on earth did she feel that she and Huo Qingyun had a close relationship!!!
"Commander Huo is responsible for protecting the entire imperial carriage. After all, I am the 'future princess of Yan'. If anything goes wrong, Commander Huo will be held accountable."
The queen seemed quite satisfied with Luo Xiaoran's answer.
"You go on."
“Princess Qingyi wanted to kill me, maybe because she felt that I was unworthy of marrying His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan, or maybe because of some other reason, but I can be sure that she had a strong desire to kill me.
For example... when I first entered the Heavenly Prison, poison was put in my food. The action was so impatient!
Letting Xiao Xingzi falsely accuse me of killing Commander Lin was also a means of killing me. This is why Princess Qingyi killed Commander Lin."
"How ridiculous!" The Queen's eyes widened. "Chen Lingyi wanted to kill you. She would use any means possible. Why did she have to take Commander Lin's life with her?"
Luo Xiaoran was also puzzled!
“Although I don’t know why Princess Qingyi killed Commander Lin and pinned the blame on me, Princess Qingyi is indeed the person closest to the murderer.
Commander Lin was drugged and knocked unconscious, then moved to Xiao Xingzi's room in Fukang Palace, where he was stabbed in the neck and died from excessive bleeding.
Your Majesty, please think about this. All kinds of things in the palace will be registered when they enter the palace.
Between me and Princess Qingyi, who is more likely to smuggle the drugs into the palace?
Furthermore, your eldest brother served as the commander of the Imperial Guard for many years, and when he was young, he followed Lord Lin to the south of the Yangtze River to suppress bandits.
Would such a battle-hardened man with great martial arts skills be easily knocked out by drugs?
Shouldn't the person who can charm Commander Lin be someone he trusts very much and who will not be on guard against him?
Princess Qingyi and Commander Lin have a close relationship. You should know this, right?"
In fact, what Luo Xiaoran said was a bit dangerous.
After all, if her line of thought continued, Chen Lingyi and Lin Yuanfang had a secret meeting on the night of the Qianqiu Festival, and then Chen Lingyi killed Lin Yuanfang.
Her elder brother went out to meet someone secretly on her birthday. If Luo Xiaoran were the queen, she would definitely be angry.
But the conversation has come to this point and Luo Xiaoran can’t stop talking anymore, so let it be!
The queen was indeed angry, because she suddenly remembered that at the Qianqiu Festival banquet, Chen Lingyi and her eldest brother did leave one after the other.
The queen trembled all over. She saw this with her own eyes...
"Luo Xiaoran, all of this is just your sweet talk. You dare to identify Princess Qingyi without any evidence, which is a crime of great disrespect!
Even if it turns out that the Red Coral case has nothing to do with you, the crime of disrespect is enough to keep you in prison!"
The Queen used her accusations against Luo Xiaoran to cover up her endless speculation about Lin Yuanfang's whereabouts on the night of the Qianqiu Festival.
The Queen really hated Luo Xiaoran at this moment. She hated why Luo Xiaoran told her all this! Why did she let herself have such bad guesses about her deceased elder brother who loved her so much!
"Lin Cheng! Eighty lashes! Whip Luo Xiaoran eighty lashes!"
Luo Xiaoran: “…”
MMP, not only is the Queen unable to distinguish right from wrong, she is also stubborn and unyielding!
What to talk about!
If I had known this, I wouldn’t have talked about it!
The more you talk, the more whips you get!
Isn't this just shooting yourself in the foot?
Luo Xiaoran was so upset that she almost couldn't cry.
