Chapter 440 It’s very suspicious

Tan Lin was moved by these words at that time.

He felt that what the other party said was very reasonable!

As long as he can get the body of the eldest princess, what will happen if Concubine Chen is angry again?

Could it be that he, the son-in-law, could still be killed?

This is impossible!

He might not have a good look on him at first, but as long as he can survive this test, he will be able to carry a princess home and become the consort without any effort, and he will have inexhaustible wealth and glory in his life. .

And even if Tan Lin wants to become an official, the maternal family behind the eldest princess and Concubine Chen will support him.

Who allowed Concubine Chen to only have a daughter like the eldest princess?

If she doesn’t have a son, isn’t her son-in-law her son?

At that time, all the benefits of Concubine Chen will belong to him.

He made a huge profit no matter what.

Therefore, Tan Lin was very excited at that time. He hit it off with the other person and discussed a specific action plan.

Who knows that in the end it is not as good as God.

None of the things originally planned were accomplished, but were exposed in advance.

Now facing Concubine Chen's questioning, what would he do on his own without the eldest princess as a shield? What did he have to say to exonerate himself.

Tan Lin was sweating profusely now, with strings of cold sweat falling down his face.

"Concubine Chen, if you want to ask something, just ask it properly. Don't talk excitedly and yell here. How long will you continue to show off your power?"

Concubine Shu said displeasedly from the side.

Concubine Chen ignored what Concubine Shu said and just looked at Tan Lin with cold eyes and said, "I have never been patient, and I only have one chance. Tell me, who ordered you to do this?"

Suddenly, everyone's eyes were fixed on Tan Lin.

Ning Muqing was also standing in the crowd. She almost knew who was behind the scenes and what was going on, but her words were useless.

It must be acknowledged and identified personally by the person involved, Tan Lin.

"I really don't know. I didn't see that person's face clearly. Please forgive me, please let me go!" Tan Lin burst into tears in pain and almost cried for his father on the spot.

"In that case." Concubine Chen narrowed her eyes, "Here comes someone! Drag Tan Lin down and put him to death!"

"I said it, I said it!"

As soon as Concubine Chen finished speaking, Tan Lin screamed in fright.

After hearing this, everyone looked at Tan Lin with contempt.

The third princess knew that she couldn't count on anyone now, so she gritted her teeth secretly, couldn't stop feeling panic, and quietly hid in a deeper place.

Concubine Chen said condescendingly, "Just say it!!"

"I didn't see the woman's face clearly. I only knew that the woman was not very old, and she also wore a Zhonggong waistband."

Tan Lin was sweating coldly and stammering as he spoke.

"what?!"

Concubine Chen and everyone were immediately shocked and looked at Concubine Shu subconsciously.

Now that the queen has been kicked out, Concubine Shu is the one who holds the central palace's belt, so Concubine Shu naturally becomes the first person to be suspected.

Concubine Shu was stunned for a moment, unable to react, and then became furious.

"Tan Lin, how dare you talk nonsense!!"

"I...I didn't! Everything I said is true!" Tan Lin said hurriedly, "The person also showed me her waistband and asked me to confirm her identity, otherwise I wouldn't believe this person. ! And she took the initiative to come to me and asked me to cooperate in plotting against the eldest princess. I thought it was you who arranged it, so I listened to her. Who knows..."

Tan Lin didn't finish his words, but everyone already knew what the outcome would be.

For a moment, everyone's eyes began to look strange when they looked at Concubine Shu.

Everyone in the palace knew it.

Concubine Shu and Concubine Chen are now in a competitive relationship, and both of them have a chance to become queens. Moreover, the third princess has always disliked the eldest princess. The number one scholar in her heart, Concubine Shu, and Concubine Chen naturally all protect their own daughters. On the surface, they are still compatible with each other as elder sisters, and there is no quarrel between them, but secretly they are the same. Water and fire.

Now the eldest princess was almost plotted by someone, and the plotter was a relative of Concubine Shu.

Tan Lin also kept saying that he saw Zhonggong's waist card.

Thinking about this matter carefully, everyone's expressions changed.

Could this really be Concubine Shu’s intention?

On the one hand, it can ruin the reputation of the eldest princess and break off the engagement with the promising number one scholar, so that the third princess can ascend to the throne.

And if something like this happens, can the emperor still favor the eldest princess?

Impossible, it’s more of a disgrace that the eldest princess would embarrass the royal family.

On the other hand, Tan Lin is famous for not knowing anything. He is not good at writing or martial arts. He also likes to go to flower houses. Taking Tan Lin to marry the Eighth Princess will not only make Tan Lin worry-free in the next life, but also make people happy. Concubine Chen's face was tarnished from then on.

This matter is worth a thousand dollars and kills two birds with one stone.

Concubine Chen naturally thought of this. Her face was cold, and she turned her head to look at Concubine Shu coldly, "Concubine Shu, how do you explain this matter?"

Concubine Shu never expected that one day she would eat melon and eat it on her own head.

"That's nonsense!" She almost laughed out of anger.

As she spoke, Concubine Shu stretched out her hand and pointed at Tan Lin fiercely, "You bastard without any conscience! Say it! Who gave you the courage to slander me! Are those two ounces of meat on your head? I don’t want it anymore!”

"Ms. Concubine Shu, I dare to guarantee with my life that everything I said is true!" Tan Lin was so frightened by Concubine Shu's fierce look that he shrank into a ball. He looked very aggrieved, "That woman has something wrong with her. I really saw Gong’s waist card with my own eyes.”

"You are really an idiot. It's just a badge. What does it mean? Do you believe this so easily?" Concubine Shu gritted her teeth angrily, "I have not only 100 but also 80 people serving me. Since I After becoming the associate governor of the Sixth Palace, I gave out unknown amounts of money to the middle palace. You didn’t even know what that person looked like. You just said that person had a waist card and was doing things for others! Do you believe it or not? I’ll chop off your pig’s head!”

Tan Lin suddenly wanted to say something.

The third princess suddenly stood up and said, "Yes! My mother-in-law is right. There are so many people serving my mother-in-law, and many people in the middle palace have waist cards. It is not difficult for gangsters to get them. Maybe someone stole the badge issued by my mother-in-law and deliberately used my mother-in-law’s name to frame her!"

"That's right, that's how you are!" Concubine Shu's eyes lit up.

"But……"

Tan Lingang wanted to speak.

The third princess glared at Tan Lin fiercely and said, "Tan Lin, please don't continue to be confused. I, the mother-in-law, have always been a virtuous, kind and generous person. How could I do such a thing! It's obviously you who has always been a good person." You have evil intentions and were discovered by others, so you were used. This person is still misleading you behind the scenes, saying that my mother-in-law ordered you to do this. You are so stupid! You are being used as a tool!"

"To this day, do you still want to speak for that person? My mother-in-law is related to your mother by blood, and she is my father's favorite concubine. She is the co-president of the Sixth Palace. How much evidence can a mere waist card count? Are you going to blame my mother and concubine in order to absolve yourself?"

The third princess spoke quickly and urgently, without giving anyone a chance to interrupt. Her tone was half threatening and half warning, leaving Tan Lin speechless.

Just when the third princess was about to continue talking.

Concubine Chen said coldly, "Third Princess, there is no need for you to say such things."

"I just can't bear to see people slandering my mother and concubine. Moreover, what Tan Lin is saying now is all unfounded and does not constitute any evidence at all."

The third princess retorted.

Concubine Shu's face was livid, "Concubine Chen, you can't doubt me because of Tan Lin's nonsense, and think that I am the one who did this?"

"Didn't Concubine Shu also suspect that his being knocked unconscious had something to do with me because of Tan Lin's words?" Concubine Chen sneered.

In other words, she is just repaying the other person with the same method, so why not?

Before Tan Lin identified Concubine Chen, Concubine Shu suspected that she was in love with her.

Now that Tan Lin has named the person who carries the Zhonggong badge, why can't she doubt Concubine Shu? Why can't she doubt Concubine Shu?

Concubine Chen said lukewarmly, "As the third princess said, there are so many people in this palace and Tan Lin is a relative of your family. Why doesn't he identify others but you? Isn't this even more embarrassing? Do people think it’s suspicious?”

"you!"

Concubine Shu was choked by Concubine Chen for a moment.
