Chapter 37: Counterattack
Receiving Lin Zhiyu's signal, Lin Xiaolian shook off her grandmother's hand, rubbed her sore wrist, glared at those grandmothers hatefully, and went to the wing room to pick up the box.
Lin Zhiyu's wing room was not too far from the Buddha Hall, and within a moment, Lin Xiaolian brought the box back and put it in the center with a "bang".
She stepped forward to open the box herself, and the scent that had been stuffed in the box seemed to have finally found an outlet, and it spread violently.
Jiang Tongmiao's face changed slightly, and then she noticed that when Lin Zhiyu entered the Buddhist hall just now, she was not wearing this dress.
Lin Minghua on the other end obviously reacted a little more, his brows furrowed for a while and stretched for a while, as if he had something on his mind.
"As you can see, the incense on this dress is particularly strong, this so-called demon girl is just a complete scam!"
Lin Zhiyu narrated the words of the imperial doctor, and there was an uproar in the Buddhist hall.
"You just have a mouth and say that the smell can excite snakes, but you prove it to us."
Jiang Tongmiao's gaze was a little unnatural, "It's better to call Imperial Doctor Cheng for an examination, he has been practicing medicine for many years and is trustworthy." ”
Imperial Physician Cheng is her mother's family, and she is very valued by the emperor's side, as long as he comes to prove that what Lin Zhiyu said is false, she will naturally have a way to deal with the rest.
"Not necessarily." Lin Zhiyu looked confident, "Come on, bring the bag containing the snake." ”
"Are you crazy?" Jiang Tongmiao exclaimed, "That beast is highly poisonous, do you want to kill all of us?" ”
Zhou Tingchen's gaze sank for a moment, and he glanced at Jiang Tongmiao coldly, who closed his mouth in amusement.
"Just do what Miss Lin said."
Then, his gaze quietly swirled around Lin Minghua, and under his gaze, the hand that had been holding her was also released, and Zhou Tingchen closed his gaze.
A few little eunuchs threw the bag containing the five-step snake on the ground, and made sure that the tie was tightly tied at the mouth, and then hurriedly retreated.
The five-step snake was hit hard by Qiaoxiu, and the air inside the bag was stuffy, so it was already dying at the moment, and it was thrown to the ground, and it only twisted its body slightly twice, and then it didn't move again.
Lin Zhiyu shook off the court clothes and threw them next to the bag.
The bag containing the snake was a sack picked up by the Imperial Forest Army from the backyard of the temple, and the sealing was not good, and it didn't take long for the five-step snake inside to seem to feel something, and gradually became excited, and hit the sack in the direction of the court clothes, which was very terrifying.
"Don't take that dress away yet! The beast is about to come out! ”
The abbot stood behind the court robe and witnessed Xu Jiu'er's tragic situation, at this time he was trembling, for fear that he would end up with the same fate as Xu Jiu'er.
"Since the abbot is so scared, let's go and take it away himself."
Lin Zhiyu was smiling, but Zhou Zijin, who was standing beside her, noticed that this smile was only floating on the surface, and her eyes were still as cold as just now.
The snake was getting harder and harder, and through the shape of the bag, one could imagine how it was tearing and biting inside.
Seeing that there was a small hole in the bag, the abbot couldn't hold back any longer, plucked up his courage, and was about to step forward and take away the court robe with shaking hands.
"Ahh
As soon as his hand touched the garment, the fangs of the five-step snake happened to pierce the sack, startling the abbot.
"Beat this beast to death, quickly!"
He panicked, and subconsciously threw off the clothes, where is there still half a point of the so-called abbot?
Coincidentally, the clothes were thrown directly on Zhou Tingchen in a panic.
Zhou Tingchen's face froze, and he reached out and quickly swept the dress to the ground.
Father-in-law Zhang was also taken aback, and reprimanded loudly at the top of his voice:
"Bold! How dare you throw this filthy thing on the emperor! Come on, drag this man down for me! ”
Hearing what Gonggong Zhang said, the abbot was even more panicked, thinking that he was going to lock himself in prison, so he pounced forward and grabbed the corner of Lin Minghua's clothes:
"The queen mother save me!"
Lin Minghua was shocked, and hurriedly raised his foot and kicked the abbot aside:
"Intending to murder the emperor, and still want this palace to save you? Directly dragged to the Criminal Division! ”
Obviously, Lin Minghua is going to turn his face and deny people.
"Niangniang, I did what you told me just now, you want to save my life, Niangniang!"
The abbot wept bitterly.
Lin Minghua stood up suddenly, as if he had seen something terrible, and stepped back in horror:
"I'm afraid that this demon didn't run to the abbot, and he is talking nonsense here! Come on, come on, come on, someone drag him out! ”
Zhou Zijin frowned, and was about to say something, but Lin Zhiyu gently pulled his sleeve and shook his head at him.
Soon someone came in and dragged the abbot out with the snake bag, and the snake was completely silent from the stimulation of the snake grass, and there were screams outside, and everyone turned their heads away, not wanting to look at it again.
Zhou Tingchen closed his eyes and said, "Since it has been proved that there is no so-called evil in the eldest girl, let's disperse, as for praying, let the Ministry of Rites choose another day." ”
"But the matter on this clothes, does the imperial brother plan to stop pursuing it?"
Zhou Zijin spoke coldly.
Zhou Tingchen is willing to turn a blind eye and let Lin Minghua go, he is unwilling.
"As far as I know, the queen is responsible for these things? Then may I ask the queen mother, what is the incense on this dress? ”
Lin Minghua was dumbfounded and couldn't say a word for a long time.
She had never personally asked the palace people to prepare court clothes for Lin Zhiyu, and in the face of Zhou Zijin's question, what could she say?
Today's matter, she just pushed the boat down the river, wanting to take the opportunity to take Lin Zhiyu's life.
No matter how bad it is, she can also use the fragrant ash water to make her completely silent, so that even if Lin Zhiyu has great ability, she will not be able to avenge herself.
"I'm afraid it's because the people below don't know the snake grass, and they are in a hurry, so I'm mistaken."
Lin Minghua's brain was running rapidly, and these three princes seemed to be even more difficult to fool than Lin Zhiyu.
"Snake grass is something that snake catchers can use, how can it appear in the palace for no reason?" Zhou Zijin continued to ask.
"That's it!"
Zhou Zijin seemed to have something to say, but Zhou Tingchen interrupted loudly.
"What does the palace people of the Shangyi Bureau have to do with the queen when they make mistakes?" Zhou Tingchen frowned and said, "The queen is frightened today, and the third brother has to be forgiving and forgiving." ”
Seeing that Zhou Tingchen still defended himself like this, Lin Minghua breathed a deep sigh of relief.
No matter how dissatisfied she is with this marriage, the other party is the king of a country after all, as long as she firmly grasps his heart, he can still protect himself in the short term.
"Of course it has nothing to do with the queen."
As soon as Lin Zhiyu's words came out, everyone was shocked again.
"There are other people who mix snake grass into the Shangyi Bureau."
