Actually, Tang Ke Xin knew that if Ye Lan Jue really wanted to kill her, she definitely wouldn't be able to stop her. Thus, in her heart, there wasn't really too much hope.

That was not her style. She, Tang Ke Xin, had never had such a phrase in her dictionary. Even in the face of the most desperate situation, she would still fight to the death for it.

Tang Ke Xin walked a long distance, and seeing that Ye Lan Jue really did not chase after him, she secretly heaved a sigh of relief. However, she discovered that her palms were drenched in cold sweat.

At this moment, Tang Ke Xin happened to walk behind a fake mountain, and her steps slightly slowed down.

She was truly surprised, because Ye Lan Jue's appearance just now was so terrifying. Seeing his appearance just now, she even thought that he was the man from that night.

So he had a hundred percent reason to kill her.

But he let her go so easily?

What was going on?

"Ah, ah, killing, killing!" However, right at this moment, a sharp voice suddenly sounded from not too far away.

Tang Ke Xin's brows twitched, following the voice, she looked over, and saw a palace maid with a face full of fear looking in her direction.

Tang Ke Xin's eyes turned slightly, and then she saw a person lying not far from her on the side of the fake mountain.

Her heart had really been a little flustered just now, and was only thinking about Ye Lan Jue. She actually did not notice that a person was lying on the side of the fake mountain.

A corpse was completely silent. It was originally very difficult to find, and the location of the corpse was also extremely hidden. If it wasn't for the palace maid's sudden shout, she might not have noticed it at all and walked over.

The palace maid's voice was very high-pitched, and very loud. Very soon, the surrounding palace maids and guards all surrounded him.

"She … she killed, she killed." The palace maid who was screaming just now, upon seeing that everyone had surrounded them, suddenly pointed at Tang Ke Xin and shouted frantically.

"Isn't that the chrysanthemum?" Someone recognized the corpse on the ground and asked with a slightly trembling voice, "Why did she kill Autumn Flower?"

"Which Courtyard are you from? What's your name? "Why do you want to kill the chrysanthemums?" One of the guards walked forward and looked at Tang Ke Xin, her voice carried a sense of viciousness.

In the past, Tang Ke Xin was a fool who would often cause trouble. Thus, when the Queen let Tang Ke Xin enter the palace, she was only allowed to stay in the Kunning Palace.

Also because of Tang Ke Xin's foolishness, Tang Ke Xin did not attend many of the banquets in the palace.

Therefore, other than a few concubines who had seen Tang Ke Xin and recognized him, normal palace maids would not be able to recognize him.

Furthermore, this place was a distance away from the Kunning Palace, so the guards here had never seen Tang Ke Xin before.

Tang Ke Xin's eyes slightly sank.

Was this an accident? Was it a coincidence? Or was it a conspiracy?

The Queen had suddenly been informed about it by the Emperor, it could be that they had made arrangements, but they had just met Ye Lan Jue in the front yard, and what had happened was out of their expectation.

If she had not just met Ye Lan Jue, Ye Lan Chen would have sent her back. She was together with Ye Lan Chen, so this situation could not have happened.

Tang Ke Xin's eyes slowly narrowed. Then, what if everything started from when she met Ye Lan Jue in the front courtyard?

From the front yard to here, there was not much shade at all. It was very sunburned and very hot.

It was quiet, cozy, cool, and there was an eighty percent chance of slowing down, and even if she did not slow down, she would have to stop at the sharp cry of the palace maid.

There were mountains and trees here, so it was relatively hidden. The conditions were very suitable.

The dead man was injured on the forehead, and blood was still flowing out of the wound. On the side of the body, there was a bloody stone.

It seemed that this matter was not simple at all.

But, who was the one who set this up? What was his goal?

"What is it? Not speak? The guard should be a small leader, but seeing that Tang Ke Xin did not speak, his expression became even more fierce.

"What's going on? What happened?" At this moment, a gentle and pleasant voice was suddenly heard.

"heart-child, why are you here, didn't you get Chen Er to send you back?" Then the Queen's voice suddenly came out, it was clear that she was surprised.

When Queen saw Tang Ke Xin, she naturally walked over quickly. Other than a few concubines, there were also Emperor s and even Crown Prince s who followed along.

Seeing the crowd that suddenly appeared, Tang Ke Xin laughed coldly in her heart. From the looks of it, it was indeed a trap, and a big one at that.

Someone who could set up such a trap in the palace was most likely not simple.

"This?" Seeing the corpses on the ground, Queen's face changed.

"What's going on?" Emperor's expression also clearly darkened.

"Reporting to the Emperor, this servant just passed by the fake mountain and saw her use a stone to smash Autumn Flower, killing her." The palace maid pointed at Tang Ke Xin again, giving a very fluent answer. At the moment, she was saying that she had personally witnessed Tang Ke Xin smashing Autumn Chrysanthemum to death.

Tang Ke Xin sneered, it seemed that this palace maid had not only framed her just now because she knew who she was, but it was precisely because she knew who she was that she did it on purpose.

"What are you talking about?" Queen was normally very calm, but after hearing the palace maid's words, he was clearly impatient.

"That's right, what nonsense are you spouting? Miss Tang is the daughter of the Prime Minister, she's the niece of the Queen, how can you frame the Miss Tang?" The voice of the Ming Gui Fei was very gentle and pleasant to the ears. It sounded like it was helping Tang Ke Xin get rid of her sin, but in reality, there was another deep meaning to it.

At this moment, she was obviously purposely flattering Tang Ke Xin's identity.

Queen's expression changed drastically.

"Reporting to the Ming Gui Fei, this servant did not frame Miss Tang, this servant had just personally witnessed it." The palace maid insisted with determination and answered fluently, not stuttering at all.

In this kind of situation, it was destined to have an ending, because, at the first moment, only Tang Ke Xin and the palace maid was present, and the palace maid had insisted on personally witnessing Tang Ke Xin killing Qiu Ju.

Tang Ke Xin knew that in the current situation, even if she did not admit it, the Emperor would not accept her crime, and it would be hard to eliminate the suspicion that the Queen was protecting her, or even bullying her with his strength.

What's more, there wasn't much credibility to the words of a recently recovered fool.

Adding on the fact that Ming Gui Fei had purposely turned the tables earlier, the consequences could be imagined.

This should be the result the person who set the trap for him.

After that, the man would certainly push for the development of public opinion.

Tang Ke Xin could only imagine how this matter would be spread.

At that time, it would be a small matter if her reputation was damaged, the Prime Minister's Estate would be affected, and the reputation of the Queen would be affected.

Now, with Queen around, it was impossible to deal with her. If she was not dealt with, the consequences would be even worse.

Therefore, this matter was now a dead end, with no solution.

A dead end? No solution?

Of course, that was only normal.

If it was her, it would be a different story.

Tang Ke Xin looked at the palace maid and suddenly laughed. It was a light laugh, very light, but it was something that no one could ignore.

Funny.

Everyone saw Tang Ke Xin laughing so much that they were stunned. Was she crazy? How could she laugh under such circumstances?

Hearing movement, Ye Lan Jue, who was walking together with Ye Lan Chen, saw the smile on her face and his eyes twinkled slightly.

At this moment, her laughter made him think of the ice lotuses in the snow mountains. They were spotless, pure white, and sparkling.
