The Palace Maid next to her, because she was afraid, she said that Lin Xiafu had instructed her to do so. She said that this method could be used to recuperate one's body, and then, everyone in the palace started to wear it.

The evidence was conclusive, and no amount of explanation was useful.

The conspiracy against the Emperor was a huge crime, but if one were to talk about it like that, the Empress was one of them. Thus, this matter was no longer just a matter of the Emperor's family, it had to be discussed with the other officials in the imperial court.

Lin Jing and Zhou Leping had been waiting anxiously from day to night, not expecting such a result.

Zhou Leping heaved a sigh of relief, but Lin Jing could not believe what he had just heard.

He Shibi advised, "Master, the evidence is conclusive, even Empress recognized him, and it is indeed Lin Chang Zai who did it. "The Emperor is angry, so you should return. Tomorrow morning, the Emperor will discuss how to resolve this matter."

This outcome was a good thing for Zhou Leping. She knew that Zhou Lean would not be able to do this kind of thing, and it was fortunate that Zhao Shiqian was fair and square.

When Zhou Leping returned to the General's Estate, it was already late at night and he was still waiting for news of her. As a result, he had not slept at all, and even coughed late into the night. Zhou Leping called Zhu Guanliang over to help him feel the pulse, and sighed emotionally, "I really did not expect that it would actually be his own family members who harmed his own.

Zhou Leqi coughed twice, "president of the Supreme Court's family will die on the guillotine, I wonder if Lin Jing will regret sending Lin Xiafu to the palace back then."

"Today, as soon as I entered the palace, he grabbed my collar and interrogated me, saying that he deserved it. Not only did he dominate the imperial court, he even wanted to turn the harem into his family. Did he really think that the Emperor was a three-year-old child so easily controlled?"

A thought suddenly popped out in Zhou Leqi's mind, "Could it be the Emperor …"

Zhou Leping interrupted him, "It doesn't matter, as long as Le An is fine."

The two of them shut their mouths in tacit understanding. The emperor was already dead for sure, what was the point in guessing whether or not it was true or false?

Coming out from Zhou Leqi's place, Zhou Leping thought about what the emperor had told her today and unconsciously started to size Zhu Guanliang up.

Zhu Guanliang saw that she was staring at him and asked curiously, "Is there something wrong with my face?

"I entered the palace today. The Emperor told me about you."

"Say what?"

"The Emperor said you were special to me." She clicked her tongue. "But no matter how I look at it, I don't see anything special about you."

Zhu Guanliang raised an eyebrow. "How did the emperor figure it out?"

"How would I know?"

"The way I see it, the Emperor isn't ordinary to the general."

"And how did you see that?"

"If you're thinking about eyes, it won't be hard for ten people to see through it." He stopped and looked up at the moon. "The general can't see it for himself, or maybe he knows it, but he looks confused."

Zhou Leping scoffed, "Speak the human language, I don't have the guts to fight with you here."

"Talking too clearly is meaningless, don't you understand?"

He stretched his waist, "This is my advice to the general, old relationships are old relationships, and a revival of old relationships usually doesn't have any good results. Furthermore, with your current identities, monarchs … Nine out of ten are unfaithful. "

"Nonsense!" She tried to explain, "I don't care where you got the rumors. It's best if you stop right there. I know exactly what I'm doing."

"Hopefully." He yawned and slowly went back to sleep, leaving Zhou Leping alone there, with his heart beating like a drum.

The reason for Lin Xiafu's murder was clear, she was locked up in the Hall of Punishment, the Empress was unwilling to look at her, and the others could also hide as far away as they could from him. The only one who wasn't afraid of him was Zhou Lean.

Zhou Lean carried a basket of food and looked at her. She looked up high with the expression of someone bestowing alms to a commoner, "In the future, if you want to eat anymore, you won't be able to do so. Since you're still alive today, just eat a few more mouthfuls."

Lin Xiafu flipped over the basket, and glared at her, "It's all your fault, I didn't harm your son, you did! It's all because of you! "

"What's the point of saying this now? You are the prisoner, the sinner is also you. No one can blame others. If you had to blame someone, you can only blame yourself for being stupid. You always thought you were superior, but what happened in the end? Isn't it still you who died first between us? "

Lin Xiafu gnashed his teeth, "As matters stand, I only want to ask you one question, when did you bribe my maidservant to betray me?"

"Buy it?" She pretended not to understand. "What are you talking about? She confessed because she was afraid of death, but I didn't bribe her. In the end, I only pitied her and saved her, keeping her by my side. "

He then sighed, "With the death of her master, this servant was also unlucky. With such a clever master, she could at least live for a few more days."

Having reached this stage, her words were watertight. Not only were she smart, she was also cautious. She had to admit that only someone like her would be able to live in the palace for a long time.

After so many years of being enemies, now that he had become a prisoner and suddenly lost his opponent, Zhou Leping's heart still felt empty.

Things had gone far beyond her imagination.

Lin Xiafu didn't feel wronged at all. She did hate the empress, and did want to use her to get rid of the child in the empress's womb. She thought that she had everything under her control and her plans were flawless.

The information about the copper ball being able to nourish the body was indeed released by Lin Xiafu. From the very beginning, Zhou Lean knew that this information was purposely targeted at her, so she decided to take it, and put in the prescription that Zhu Guanliang gave her.

The ingredients inside were all extremely common, but the most unusual thing was the method.

She didn't know where Zhu Guanliang found out about this method, but it was clear that the imperial doctors in the palace didn't know about this effect.

She also used this as an excuse to take care of her body, use it for a long period of time, and help her conceive. The women in the palace all looked forward to it and naturally rushed to hang it on their bodies.

After that, everyone wore the same clothes. Every day, they would pay respects to the empress. Sooner or later, the empress would smell this fragrance and lose the child in her womb. The best thing about this method was that the empress had a small family.
