The Legend of Noble Woman

Chapter 676 Confession 1
Since the empress knew that Luo Jin's words could not be trusted, Zisu felt relieved. She didn't say anything more, but walked to the other side and stared at Luo Jin who was kneeling on the ground.

It didn't take too long, and the staff from the Punishment Department came back with 1000 taels of gold after an estimated two quarters of an hour.

Not to mention, that 1000 taels of gold is a big gold ingot.

There are ten of them, and they are quite heavy, wrapped in a linen cotton cloth. They really don't look very good-looking, but the contents inside are surprising.

Liu Zixi glanced at the 1000 taels of gold, "Such ill-gotten gains should be handed over to the emperor. Luo Jin, do you have any objections?"

"The slave has no objection."

Luo Jin replied.

How dare he have an opinion?
If he has an opinion, he can move his head in the next second.

Liu Zixi beckoned to Zisu who was behind him, "Zisu, take the 1000 taels of gold to Qintian Temple, and then report the matter to the emperor, and ask the emperor to decide Luo Jin's life or death."

"Yes, ma'am."

Zisu smiled knowingly, the empress's trick was beautiful.

Obviously the empress can execute Luo Jin, but the empress does not, she just wants to see Luo Jin's look of survival.

God knows, in Luo Jin's heart right now, he really wanted to greet the eighteenth generation of Liu Zixi's ancestors!

Luo Jin stared at Liu Zixi with a look of disbelief, "Your Majesty!"

"Huh? What are you trying to say?"

Liu Zixi gave him a cold look, as if looking at a dead person.

Luo Jin opened his mouth, but finally said nothing.

After Zisu left, only Madam Zhu was in the room.

Liu Zixi stood up, "Mother Zhu, go and interrogate Qiu Liu, and ask her whether to recruit or not."

"Yes, ma'am."

Upon hearing this, Nanny Zhu's eyes lit up, and she hurried to work.

After Nanny Zhu went down, Liu Zixi walked up to Luo Jin, and asked condescendingly, "Aren't you going to tell me the truth? Qiu Liu has already recruited her, she is from Emperor Xiu."

"what?!"

Luo Jin was quite frightened.

He never expected that Qiuliu would be recruited just like that.

"People, when in desperate situation, want to survive. Luo Jin, I have always thought that you are a person who knows the current affairs, so I want to give you a chance. As long as you recruit what you know, then this palace will I will give you a chance to live. I will never make things difficult for you, and I will arrange a time for you to leave the palace."

Liu Zixi's words were seductive, and she also wanted to know how many secret works Emperor Xiu had arranged in the deep palace of Xia Kingdom!

She wanted to find out these details at once, and then clear them all.

Luo Jin bit his lower lip, but didn't speak.

He knew that Concubine Chen didn't know, otherwise, she wouldn't be here waiting for him.

However, Concubine Chen knew about her relationship with Qiu Liu, which made him not sure how much Liu Zixi knew.

It is precisely because of this uncertainty that he cannot make an accurate judgment.

He received 1000 taels of gold to help Qiu Liu become a great court lady next to Empress Xia. For this alone, if the emperor was kind, he might be able to save his life, but if not, he would definitely have to die.

"How? Have you thought about it? If there is no answer, the opportunity will really be missed. Don't think how well you hide it, don't forget whose territory this is!"

Liu Zixi continued with a nonchalant sentence.

It was because of her words that Luo Jin's final defense collapsed, "Okay! Let me tell you!"
