I traveled through time with my best friend.

Chapter 250: Face to face confrontation.

Thinking of this, Jiahe's eyes turned slightly, and then she quickly pulled out the hairpin from her head and was about to stab it towards her neck.

Li Lingchen's expression changed, and he immediately walked over to stop Jiahe.

"what are you doing?"

"Brother, it's all mother's fault. He'er is willing to atone for her sins." Jiahe said crying.

Li Lingchen frowned and snatched the hairpin from Jiahe's hand, saying sternly: "She is she, you are you, you don't need to make up for her mistakes, you are the blood of the Li family, you can't be treated with contempt."

"But....."

"Hongfu, send the princess back." Li Lingxuan ordered in a deep voice.

Jiahe secretly breathed a sigh of relief and allowed the palace maid to come in and take her away.

Imperial Doctor He did not dare to stay. After he left, Concubine Hua looked at Li Lingchen and said, "Your Majesty, the funeral ceremony still needs to be held."

Li Lingchen sighed deeply, and then said, "Hongfu, hold the funeral according to the empress dowager's funeral rules. Since she dislikes the late emperor so much, then put her next to the late emperor. She wants to die and be free, but it is impossible."

"Yes."

After Hongfu ordered people to take the Queen Mother away, only Li Lingchen and Concubine Hua were left in the palace. Concubine Hua looked at Li Lingchen's lonely back and walked forward distressedly, "Your Majesty, now the truth has been revealed. Although it is difficult to accept for the time being, it has also solved the confusion in your heart."

"Yes." Li Lingchen nodded slightly, took Concubine Hua's hand, and said softly: "It's just that I didn't expect that I would recognize my enemy as my mother."

"This is not your fault. You were still young at that time and didn't understand those things." Concubine Hua comforted.

"Shu'er, I'm tired."

"I will wait for you to rest."

"kindness."

The next day.

The palace announced the death of the Empress Dowager. All the funeral arrangements were taken care of by Concubine Hua, and Li Lingchen never showed up from beginning to end.

At noon, a lot of people gathered at the gate of Lin's house. So many people were chattering non-stop. Jiang Xue couldn't hear anything standing at the back, so she could only fly to a tree nearby to see clearly.

Zeng Qin and Lin Wanwan were kneeling at the gate of the Lin residence. Lin Wanwan had a veil on her face, while Zeng Qin was kneeling with tears on her face. She cried and said, "It's all my fault. I shouldn't have entered the residence. I shouldn't have hurt Yiyi. Everyone, don't be fooled by me. I deserve it. This is all my conspiracy."

The people around saw the mistress kneeling at the gate of the Lin Mansion in public, and who would believe what she said?

Then he shouted indignantly: "Did Lin Yiyi force Madam?"

Zeng Qin looked nervous when she heard this, and then shook her head fearfully, "No, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have bullied Yiyi."

"Hiss..." Jiang Xue's eyes turned cold. Why did the words change in meaning when they came out of Zeng Qin's mouth?

Just as he was about to step forward to stop them, Lin Yiyi's cold voice rang out, "What are you doing again?"

Zeng Qin looked into the mansion and saw Lin Yiyi staring at the two of them with cold eyes, and then glanced at Lin Wanwan.

Lin Wanwan immediately moved in front of Lin Yiyi while crying and said, "Sister, I was wrong. Can you please give me the antidote?"

"What antidote?" Lin Yiyi couldn't help but frown.

"Lin Yiyi, you dare not admit it? You made the mistress of the house kneel down at the gate of the mansion to apologize to you. Do you really not take the laws of the Chili Kingdom seriously?"

Lin Yiyi was too lazy to talk to these blinded people. She stared at Lin Wanwan and pulled away the veil on her face. A pair of thick lips like sausages were exposed to Lin Yiyi's sight.

Lin Yiyi sneered, "Humph, in order to force me to death, you actually did everything you could."

"Sister, please give me the antidote. I really know I was wrong."

"Zeng Qin, do you dare to confront me in front of my father?"

Zeng Qin covered her face and said aggrievedly: "I'm afraid the master hasn't come back yet."

"The master is back." The butler's voice sounded from behind the crowd.

Everyone turned around. Lin Yanfu walked forward with a frown on his face. After he stepped onto the steps, he turned around and looked at the people surrounding his house. He bowed and said, "I am the prime minister of a dynasty, but I cannot take care of my own family affairs. I am incompetent."

After saying that, he stood up and said with cold eyes, "Since everyone is so concerned about Lin's family affairs, let's set up a court here and confront him face to face. I also ask Minister Lou and Lord Pei to be witnesses."

As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Xue saw Pei Zhijin wearing the uniform of the Jinyiwei, with an upright posture. The person next to him was wearing court robes and looked older than Pei Zhijin.

The housekeeper ordered someone to bring three chairs, and the three of them sat down side by side. Zeng Qin and Lin Wanwan knelt in front of them, at a loss as to what to do.

On the contrary, Lin Yiyi calmly saluted Pei Zhijin and Minister Lou and said, "Thank you for your help."

Then he ordered inside: "Zhu Feng, bring the person out."

"Yes."

A moment later, Zhu Feng came out supporting a pale-faced woman. When Zeng Qin saw this, her heart trembled violently. How could this happen?

When Jiang Xue saw that it was Shuang Ning, she frowned slightly, "Shuang Ning? How could she be injured like this?"

When Shuang Ning saw Lin Yiyi, tears started to fall from her eyes. "Miss, it's all my fault that you got into trouble."

Lin Yiyi took out a handkerchief and gently wiped away the tears on Shuang Ning's face, and said softly: "Shuang Ning, you can tell me now what Zeng Qin did to you."

"Yes."

Shuang Ning then knelt down in front of Pei Zhijin and said, "My Lord, Master, Madam Zeng used all means to kill the young lady. She arrested me and tortured me severely, forcing me to confess the young lady's unfounded crimes. I would rather die than obey, so Madam Zeng wrote a confession and asked me to sign it, accusing the young lady of being cruel and seducing men."

"Where is the confession?" Pei Zhijin asked.

Shuang Ning quickly took out the bloody paper from her bosom, spread it out and said, "Here."

The housekeeper quickly took the confession and handed it to Pei Zhijin.

Pei Zhijin glanced at it and handed it to Minister Lou. After Minister Lou glanced at it, he looked at Lin Yanfu and said, "Prime Minister, do you recognize Madam's handwriting?"

Lin Yanfu took the confession letter, glanced at it, and then threw it to Zeng Qin, saying coldly, "What explanation do you want to give?"

Zeng Qin looked at the bloody confession and explained hurriedly, "Master, I don't even know who she is, so how could I arrest her and force her to confess?"

"You don't recognize her, but do you still remember Lu Cui?" Lin Yiyi asked coldly.

Zeng Qin was surprised, then looked at Lin Yiyi and said, "Lücui is your maid. She has been following you in the Lin Mansion since she was a child, so she naturally remembers you."

"Do you remember how she died?"

"I...how would I know how she died? She was following you all the time."

"Really? Then let's let Yihonglou's mother speak."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ah Hui came up with the madam of Yihongyuan.

Jiang Xue curled the corners of her mouth. It seemed that Yiyi came prepared, so she was waiting to see a good show.

As he spoke, he found a sturdy tree trunk and lay down, then leisurely took out the candied fruits that he had packed around his waist and started eating them.

Pei Zhijin glanced at the tree not far away. Although winter was approaching, the leaves on the tree were still somewhat hidden. If you didn't look carefully, you couldn't tell that there was someone on them.

However, Pei Zhijin recognized it at a glance and realized it was Jiang Xue, and the corners of his mouth curled up inadvertently.
