Chapter 2316: I can't help it

"The Queen..."

Xue Jie kowtowed, limp to the ground, but couldn't say a word.

Yan Qingzi came slowly, stood still in front of her, condescendingly, looking at her blankly.

"Xue Jie, where are you going!?"

"I...I just came out and walked..." Xue Jie's voice trembled, and she didn't believe it.

"Xue Jie, it was I who rescued you from the water back then and put it by my side. It was good to you, why would you betray me?!"

Xue Jie looked up in horror: "I didn't betray you..."

"No? Then where are you going now?"

"I……"

"Are you going to lie?!"

"..."

Xue Jie was speechless for a while and didn't know how to answer.

She didn't want to admit it, but the queen's eyes were like a dagger, opening her heart little by little, peeking into the deepest and truest secret inside.

Ling Luoyu turned back and sat down on a stone on the side of the road: "Sister Xue, you are such a smart person, don't you understand the meaning of being arrested?!"

Xue Jie's eyes stared away suddenly, but said nothing.

Ling Luoyu was speechless and sighed helplessly.

"Do you think, if there is no real evidence, we will stop you here?! There is one thing, you probably don't know?! In fact, according to my intentions, people like you who are selling for glory are directly beheaded. , Kill one, clean the world! But the queen is not willing!"

Xue Jie's long eyelashes trembled, she didn't dare to look at Yan Qingzi again, but her body fell a little loosely.

"The queen said, anyway, you have been with her for half a lifetime. From the heart, she doesn't want to believe that you will betray her! And even now, she doesn't believe you will betray her... So, she wants me to give you one last chance...a chance to defend herself..."

Tears slid across Xue Jie's face, and she slowly closed her eyes, looking desperate.

"I don't want to defend myself...because there are some things that I can't explain, and I don't want to explain anymore... blame it, blame me for not being the first to meet the queen!"

She knocked her head sharply, and fell heavily to her feet.

"Master, it's me, Xue Jie, I'm sorry! But I really can't help myself...My family is in her hands. If I don't do it, the whole family will be destroyed!! For someone like you, Our whole family is just ants, and it doesn’t matter if we die, it doesn’t matter if we die! But for me, they are everything to me..."

Yan Qingzi stood quietly, his expression still calm and unmoved.

"The person who threatened you...who is it?!"

Xue Jie's breathing trembled, her eyes flickered slightly, and finally her jaw head.

"Yes... it's Mrs. Xing..."

Yan Qingzi looked at Ling Luoyu with bright eyes, but she shook her head silently.

The queen knows, and smiles coldly: "Mrs. Xing?! She is really brave! She even dared to attack me!"

"Mrs. Xing... first found me and said that she wanted me to do some tricks on the master's medicine! I didn't follow, and she used my family's life to threaten me. I couldn't do anything... I could only do what she said!!! But then , I realized something was wrong, so I secretly replaced the master..."

Xue Jie's eyes flickered, and suddenly she pointed to Ling Luoyu.

"About this, I have already told Miss Ling..."

Ling Luoyu raised her lips in a noncommittal way: "Sister Xue, I want to correct it... You did tell me about the herbs, but you didn't say it was Mrs. Xing's hands and feet..."
