Chapter 290 Psychological Warfare

Chunmei said: "Your Majesty, the servants are too worried about your empress, and it happened so suddenly, it is possible to remember wrongly."

Huoxue looked at her with a half-smile, and said, "Your Majesty, I want to ask, if someone tells a lie, how should we deal with it? Is it the crime of deceiving the emperor?"

Di Wugou cooperated and said: "If you bully the emperor, you are still a slave. Naturally, you will be killed without mercy."

The hearts of the three maids were pounding.

Huo Xue said seriously: "I am begging for mercy. If it is proven that the liars are the three court ladies and sisters, if they can mend their ways and admit that they lied, can the emperor give you a lighter punishment?"

Di Wugou took a look at Huoxue, saw that she was serious, and agreed: "Since it is Huo Gonggong who is begging for mercy, I will agree."

The queen mother reprimanded: "Don't pretend to be a good person here, and confuse the public, it's you in the first place."

Huoxue said confidently: "I have no proof yet. Just before I say it, I want to hear what the three maids have to say. This is a chance I won for you with great difficulty. Wait for me to tell you my evidence. It will be too late. Your majesty, is it beheading? Beheading one, or implicating the family?"

Di Wugou cooperated and said: "The slave deceived the emperor, and he still refused to repent even though he was given a chance, so he will punish the three clans!"

Huoxue nodded: "Sister of the court lady, you have also heard the emperor's golden words. The only chance is this time, the lives of your parents and family members are in your hands. I just remind you: the confessions of the three of you just now are completely different, It’s not a matter of panic and misremembering, but that the loopholes are too big and too obvious.”

None of the three of them knew what she said, they were frightened by Huo Xue, their faces were clearly full of struggle, panic and fear.

The empress dowager has been in the harem for many years, so she can naturally see such obvious flickering and struggling expressions, and her heart sinks.Unexpectedly, this little confused boy was really wronged.Although she wished that little Huozi would die, but things... one size fits all.

A slave who dared to lie in front of the emperor must never be spared.

The queen mother did not speak again.

Chunmei insisted: "Everything my servant said is true, what Xia Lan and Qiu Ju said is different from my servant's, maybe they were too flustered, the two of them are timid in the first place."

Xia Lan thought that she had reached this point, so she could only punish the little confused boy to death, and she firmly refused to admit it.

Xia Lan echoed: "Yes, what Chunmei said is right, but the maidservant is too timid to remember clearly. What Chunmei said must be right."

Huoxue sneered: "You don't even know what she said, but you think she's right, it's really sisterly love. However, you two have no chance to change your mind. What about the rest?"

Qiuzhu was really timid, his whole body trembled, and when his knees gave way, he knelt down.

Chunmei saw that things were not good, so she pointed out: "Qiuzhu, let's tell the truth, you don't have to be afraid."

Qiuzhu didn't look at her, but looked down at the ground.

Huoxue said: "What's the meaning of this palace lady's sudden gift? There is only one chance."

Qiuzhu's body shook violently twice, and said: "Your maidservant...The maidservant didn't see anything just now, so she lied..."

Huoxue turned to Di Wugou: "Your Majesty, after a while, after clearing the slave's innocence, please ask the Emperor to punish this maid of honor lightly, and punish the other two severely."

Di Wugou was very cooperative: "Quite!"

Qiu Zhu hurriedly said: "My servant Qiu Zhu thanked the emperor, and thanked Huo Gonggong."
