Tian's little cook

Chapter 1177
Empress Dowager Wu believed Lin Zhener's words completely, but after Lin Zhimo's defense just now, it seems that what Lin Zhener said did have flaws.

If someone else was sued, Empress Dowager Wu might think about it, but she has always hated Lin Zhimo and wanted her to step down no less than Yuan Xue.

So, she couldn't miss this opportunity.

Even if the truth is not what Lin Zhener said, she will not let it go.

Sometimes it doesn't matter what the truth is, all you need is an excuse.

"Lin Zhen'er, what else did you see that day?" The Empress Dowager Wu seemed to be asking, but she was actually guiding her to give more powerful evidence: "Or what else can you prove?"

Now that she has been driven to a dead end, Lin Zhener's mind was spinning desperately, and she glanced at Lin Zhimo, and suddenly she had a flash of inspiration.

"Queen, I remember." She pointed at Lin Zhimo, "Of course I saw that Zhang Linghan gave the queen a jade pendant and put it around her neck."

When she was in Yunze City, Lin Zhen'er happened to see Lin Zhimo carrying a jade pendant with her by chance several times.

Anyway, no one else knows whether this jade pendant belongs to Lin Zhimo, as long as they can slander her.

Lin Zhimo frowned. She didn't expect Lin Zhen'er to be so nonchalant: "The jade pendant on my body was left to me by my mother, not from others."

"Then how do you prove it?" Queen Mother Wu asked.

"I..." Lin Zhimo stopped talking.

She really can't prove it.

This jade pendant is Shen's personal belonging, and it was given to her before leaving.

How can ordinary women's things be easily seen by others?
Seeing that she couldn't answer, Yuan Xue's aura rose, and she sneered: "Queen, don't you admit it now?"

Lin Zhimo's expression suddenly relaxed: "The emperor knows that I have been carrying this jade pendant all the time, so I will tell him when I ask him to have a look."

Huangfu had indeed seen this jade pendant before. When he left Yunze City, Lin Zhimo wanted to give it to him.

"Empress Dowager, the empress said this to excuse herself." Yuan Xue immediately retorted: "Everyone knows that the emperor will speak for her when he speaks to the empress."

Empress Dowager Wu nodded: "Queen, if you want to prove it, you can show it yourself. If you can't do it"

Seeing their aggressive attitude, Zhang Linghan had no choice but to interrupt her, "Empress Dowager, I dare to guarantee with my life that the relationship between me and the queen is absolutely innocent. Please don't believe rumors, which will not only damage the queen's reputation, but will also harm the queen. Damage to the royal reputation."

Without waiting for Queen Mother Wu to answer, Yuan Xue said first: "It is for the reputation of the royal family that we should find out the truth, otherwise it will only make the royal family a laughing stock of the world."

Empress Dowager Wu had already seen that Yuan Xue also wanted to use this matter to overthrow Lin Zhimo. As the empress dowager, she couldn't make it too obvious, so she asked Yuan Xue, "Concubine Yuan Shu, what do you think should be changed?"

Lin Zhimo sneered, Queen Mother Wu couldn't wait.

"Queen Mother, the concubine thinks that since the queen said that the jade pendant is hers, she can't decide whether it's true or not for a while, why not." Yuan Xue shifted her gaze to Zhang Linghan, "Have someone search Zhang Linghan's body and look at him. Is there anything the queen gave him?"

"Yuanxue, how dare you!" Lin Zhimo roared.

Zhang Linghan was originally implicated by her, but now he is going to be searched like a prisoner, Lin Zhimo will never allow it.

"Queen, why are you so excited?" Yuan Xue added fuel to her reaction: "Is there really something shady about him?"
