Chapter 358 Counterattack
Imperial City, Heavenly Prison.
“The Emperor has already found out that the murderer behind Commander Lin’s death…is Concubine Tang.
There are witnesses and evidences. You will be able to go out in a few days."
After receiving the order from Emperor Tianqi, Huo Qingyun could not help but go to the Heavenly Prison and personally inform Luo Xiaoran of the news.
"Great! Lord Huo, I am grateful to you this time. Otherwise, even if I jumped into Guangdai Lake, I would never be able to clear my name."
Although Luo Xiaoran can be considered a half-homebody, when she is at Luo's house, she can stay at home for half a month.
But at that time, she could study food at home, read novels, and chat with Qiu Niang, instead of being locked up in prison like now, unable to do anything and extremely bored!
Seeing the rare bright smile on Luo Xiaoran's face, Huo Qingyun couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth slightly. Finally, the matter was resolved.
"If it weren't for Miss Luo's tip, the Emperor wouldn't have let the truth come out like this."
Luo Xiaoran smiled, "After all, the emperor only has this one biological sister. Could it be that the emperor would kill her?"
"But the one who died was the eldest son of the Lin family. How can Miss Luo be sure that the emperor will protect Princess Qingyi?" Huo Qingyun asked meaningfully.
"Master Huo, just call me Luo Xiaoran!"
At this time, Luo Xiaoran already regarded Huo Qingyun as a friend, not only because Chen Ji said that she could trust him, but more because from her interactions with Huo Qingyun, Luo Xiaoran could feel Huo Qingyun's kindness.
Therefore, Luo Xiaoran did not have many taboos when answering Huo Qingyun's questions.
"I'm not sure whether the emperor will protect Princess Qingyi. I just saw with my own eyes that Princess Qingyi was trying to murder the heir to the throne, and the emperor was unwilling to investigate further!"
These words were really straightforward. Huo Qingyun was a little surprised and his eyes involuntarily drifted to Wei An behind Luo Xiaoran.
"Wei An is the Prince of Yan's man. He is mine for now. It's okay."
Don't employ people you doubt, and don't doubt people you employ. This is Luo Xiaoran's principle. Even if she is let down in the end, she will accept it!
“Back then, Concubine Bai almost fell off the ginkgo tree. If I hadn’t accidentally saved her, she would have lost the baby in her belly.
I don’t know if Concubine Bai has found out who is harming her. It would be great if there is a kind-hearted person willing to tell her!
Lord Huo, don't you think so? "
Huo Qingyun's pupils shrank slightly. Is Luo Xiaoran going to fight back?
It's not just Concubine Bai. When Chen Lingyi came before, she was said to have suffered a great setback at the hands of Luo Xiaoran. Then she went back to find the Emperor, and the two of them started arguing over Luo Xiaoran. Didn't their sisterly love get consumed again?
Thinking of this, Huo Qingyun couldn't help but sigh deeply:
"Luo Xiaoran, there are few women in the world who are smarter than you, right?"
"No, no! Sir Huo, please don't praise me, I will be proud!"
Luo Xiaoran waved her hands, but she couldn't suppress the smile on her lips.
Huo Qingyun could no longer suppress the smile on his face.
Among the three, only Wei An was confused about the situation. He frowned and scratched his head as he looked at Luo Xiaoran and Huo Qingyun who were smiling at each other.
……
The Imperial Palace, outside the Imperial Study.
"Princess, the Emperor is reviewing memorials, please come back later!"
Zheng Tianbao, the chief eunuch around Emperor Tianqi, was sending Chen Lingyi away according to the Emperor Tianqi's instructions.
Chen Lingyi's already gloomy face became even darker now.
"Excuse me, Eunuch Zheng. I really have something important to report to the emperor. Please help me pass it on."
"This……"
The emperor in the imperial study was displeased, and the Princess Qingyi in front of him had an angry look on her face. If the two of them met each other, would anything be okay?
Zheng Tianbao hesitated for a while and decided to persuade Chen Lingyi again, asking her to go back first and come back another day.
Just then, Concubine Bai came out of the imperial study. Her belly was more obviously bulging and her eyes were red, as if she had been crying.
When she saw Chen Lingyi, Concubine Bai's almond-shaped eyes widened, and the disgust and hatred in her eyes almost turned into reality!
