Crazy Queen, Striving to Become the Most Beautiful Lady in the Harem

Chapter 371 Staying Up All Night

Zheng Jin started to cry while laughing, his life gradually faded away, and he held on with his last bit of strength.

She said, "Empress, I was originally a singing girl in a brothel in Liangcheng. I was born in a humble family. My father died when I was a child and my mother remarried. My stepfather saw that I had a good-looking face and persuaded my mother to sell me to the brothel. For one or two taels of silver, my mother sold me without hesitation."

Zheng Jin choked up

"From then on, I became a prostitute in a brothel. When I grew up, I started selling my body to make money. Whenever a customer was not happy with me, they would beat me half to death. You know what a disgusting place a brothel is. Women are like animals. As long as the men have money, we prostitutes live worse than pigs and dogs in brothels. I was beaten so badly that there was not a single piece of good meat on my body. The last time, I died at the hands of a local wealthy businessman."

Zheng Jin didn't expect that Lin Junxue, who came from a high-ranking aristocratic family and came from a first-rank general's mansion, could understand what she said.

Some people are worlds apart from each other since birth.

Lin Junxue looked at Zheng Jin, whose hands were shaking. She guessed that Zheng Jin might be a ghost, but she didn't expect that he was actually a prostitute.

Zheng Jin didn't dare to look at Lin Junxue, for fear of seeing that familiar look of disgust, contempt, and nausea.

Next second

Lin Junxue spoke, her tone did not change at all, and her face did not show the expression that Zheng Jin expected.

“So it is”

Zheng Jin looked at Lin Junxue in shock, as if he understood why she didn't hate her background?

Brothel prostitutes are dirty women despised by the world and are not tolerated by the world.

Lin Junxue saw Zheng Jin's doubts

"Just because you're a prostitute in a brothel, should I hate you? Should you be looked down upon just because you were born in a humble family? If anyone should be looked down upon, it should be me. Those men who go to brothels for pleasure are not poor women like you who can't escape the entanglement of fate. Those men seek pleasure from women while trampling on the dignity of women like you. It's these sanctimonious men who are wrong. It's the way the world is. Women should never be... "

Zheng Jin looked at Lin Junxue, whose pale face, originally on the verge of death, suddenly burst into light.

No one has ever said such words to her in her life.

It is the men and the world that are wrong, not the women!

Zheng Jin is crying

"Empress, I was so wrong. I was wrong. I shouldn't have turned to the Queen Mother and plotted against you time and time again. I thought that God had blessed me and gave me a chance to be reborn, allowing a humble person like me to be reborn in the harem. I thought that with my identity as Zheng Jin, I would be able to enjoy wealth and glory and live a life of superiority. I thought that this harem was full of flowers and was the most respected place in the world. But I didn't expect that this harem was an abyss where people were eaten without leaving any bones."

Lin Junxue listened quietly as Zheng Jin told her about her past.

Until Zheng Jin's voice became smaller and smaller, and his face had turned pale.

Lin Junxue knew Zheng Jin had reached his limit

Lin Junxue took Zheng Jin's hand, lowered her head, and said softly, "Live a good life in your next life."

A tear fell from Zheng Jin's eyes, and he slowly closed his eyes, but a relieved smile appeared at the corner of his lips.

Ning'an Palace

Lin Junxue came out, and Qiaoxin and Danzhen walked forward.

"My lady, Jin Ronghua?"

Lin Junxue nodded

"Well, the person is gone. Go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and give orders to handle Jin Ronghua's funeral."

Dan Zhen said, "I understand, don't worry, Madam."

Zhonghe Palace

Danzhen wiped Lin Junxue's body and glanced at the rain outside the window.

"My lady, the rain came too quickly. It's the rainy season now. I'm afraid it will rain in the next few days."

Lin Junxue said, "Go and prepare your pen and ink. I will write a letter to the emperor later. I will report the matter of Jin Ronghua to the emperor. The empress dowager's letter cannot be sent to the emperor first. After I finish writing, send someone to deliver it to the emperor as soon as possible."

Danzhen frowned

"Your Highness, do you mean that the Queen Mother would also write to the Emperor? How dare the Queen Mother? She was the one who wanted to frame you, Your Highness, and she even killed Jin Ronghua, and she even wants to turn the tables on the Emperor?"

Lin Junxue looked at Danzhen's angry expression and pinched her little face.

"You, the Queen Mother has always been like this. What's the point of blaming others for something else? Well, don't waste time. Go and prepare the writing brush. Ask Guyu to go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to meet Xiao Xiazi."

"Your Majesty, I understand. I will prepare now. We cannot let the Queen Mother take the lead."

that night

Lin Junxue's letter was sent out.

Just as Lin Junxue's letter was sent out of the palace, Ci'an Palace also sent out a letter.

Second day

Lin Junxue ordered a thorough investigation into the Zheng Jin incident. Of course, it was just to give an explanation to the outside world.

Lin Junxue knew that this matter would end in vain and would not affect the empress dowager, but it would be enough to make her quiet for a while.

Sure enough, in the afternoon, the concubines in Ci'an Palace were exempted from paying their respects.

Shenguang Palace

After Chen Mi knew about this, he sat alone for a long time.

This time, she watched the Queen Mother lose, and once again, she watched the Queen win.

This time, the queen defeated not the concubines in the harem, but the queen mother.

The sky outside the window is so gloomy that it makes people feel really cold.

midnight

Lin Junxue opened her eyes, turned to look at Zhuxi beside her, and moved her body.

With just a slight movement, Zhuxi opened his eyes and looked at her. Their eyes met and their emotions were overflowing.

Zhuxi's throat moved slightly, and he asked in a deep voice, "What's wrong?"

The voice is as clear as water, unlike the usual voice, with a little more tenderness and lazy hoarseness.

Lin Junxue looked at Zhuxi, whose eyes were clear and seemed not to be asleep at all, and paused.

"Did I wake you up, or have you never slept?"

Zhuxi's eyes are connected, whispering

“Not sleeping”

Lin Junxue was stunned. Could it be that Zhuxi had never had a good night's sleep during the days he accompanied her in Zhonghe Palace?

"Why aren't you sleeping? Can't you sleep well because I'm around?"

Zhuxi was silent at this moment, and his exquisitely carved face was flawless.

In Lin Junxue's view, he was like a young man from Greek mythology, with an evil aura everywhere.

“I’m used to it”

Lin Junxue narrowed her eyes and asked, "Are you used to it?"

Under what circumstances would Zhuxi, a Buddhist who was naturally respected by everyone, get used to such things and suffer sleepless nights?

Lin Junxue placed her hand on Zhuxi's chest, then reached out and embraced Zhuxi's slender waist.

Leaning on his chest, the sound of his heartbeats rang in her ears.

"Zhuxi, go to sleep"

Zhuxi lowered his head and looked at Lin Junxue in his arms. The tip of his nose was filled with the fragrance of her body, and his eyes trembled slightly.

""Okay, I'll sleep"

This time, Lin Junxue did not sleep.

for a while

Lin Junxue raised her head. Zhuxi still had her eyes open. She looked inexplicably cute, but also a little silly.

Lin Junxue curled her lips

"I can't sleep. Okay, then don't sleep and do something interesting."
