Back In Time (The Reincarnation of the Cruel Concubine)

Ruse

"It's crazy!!"

"I'm not the culprit!"

"There's no way you'd think I did it, right?"

"Commander Hao! You know I'm not the one, right?"

Wu Li Mei continued to ramble furiously, the woman was sitting sweetly in a special room in the torture hall, the examination hall. Medium-sized room with simple ornaments, lighting in it is not good enough.

Inside the room was Wu Li Mei, Commander Hao and a few soldiers. The grand concubine pavilion maids were waiting outside. They are not allowed to enter or leave, because one by one of them will also be checked.

Commander Hao sighed in silence, ever since the beautiful woman came to the examination room, he continued to babble and scold them. Repeatedly he asked her to stop, still Wu Li Mei was rambling again and again.

"Calm down, Your Majesty" Commander Hao said carefully, reluctant to offend the concubine.

"Quiet?" Wu Li Mei rounded her eyes, "How can I calm down? I'm accused of a crime I never committed, and again, I don't want to end up like that ladyboy." The concubine shuddered considering how ruthless the soldiers were whipping Yang Li. Wu Li Mei would definitely break the necks of the soldiers who dared to swing a whip towards him.

By the way, after a chat with Dayang Yi the other day. Wu Li Mei thus knew that this concubine was no ordinary woman, she was the last princess of the Hang Empire in the North, whom Emperor Zhou had hired for the sake of cooperation between the two empires. To be honest, the woman was very curious about the parents of the owner of the body, whether it might be the same face as Risa's parents. Given there was Physician Zhong, and now Zhou Xing Huan, who had a look almost the same as those closest to him back then.

Returning to the matter of mercury poison, he guessed that Yang Jia Li was definitely the culprit. The only thing that came to his mind was that cunning woman. Observing how Yang Jia Li was so quick to accuse him, it was obvious that he was hiding something.

"Commander Hao!?" Wu Li Mei looked at the commander seriously.

"Yes.. Your Honor?"

"You know I'm innocent?"

Commander Hao fell silent, confused as to what to answer. "Actually...."

"Actually?" wu Li Mei's.

"Actually I don't know." replied the commander.

Wu Li Mei squinted his eyes, the commander seemed to want to play it safe. Did he forget who he was dealing with now, "How could you not know?" she asked, "You'll always keep an eye on my movements."

"That's part of the emperor's order, Your Majesty."

"Then?" Wu Li Mei raised her right eyebrow, "Did you find something strange dar---"

Brakkkk........

The door of the examination hall was smashed down, creating a loud noise as the wooden door slammed in.

"What the fuck?" commander Hao exclaimed, the right hand of the emperor stood up and came forward to protect Wu Li Mei when he found out who was coming.

"We have come with the arrest warrant for Grand Consort Wu."

The envoys from the prosecutor's department were carrying a piece of paper with a special arrest warrant for Wu Li Mei, which was approved by the chief of the prosecutor's department. Yang Jian Zhu, Yang Jia Li's elder brother.

Judging from the interference of many parties, it seemed that Yang Jia Li was not messing around.

"Capture?" Wu Li Mei rounded her eyes, "What other arrest? What am I wrong."

"We found this in the grand concubine's pavilion!"

Not only Wu Li Mei, Commander Hao was also surprised. "No! I never hid that poison in my pavilion!" the Wu Li Mei.

"But the evidence is in plain sight, you can't dodge it anymore, Your Majesty." said someone from behind the door, the person then walked slowly with an intimidating aura. Instantly everyone became silent, Brand's gaze locked onto the black-haired man with the typical logo of the prosecutor's department.

He was Yang Jian Zhu, the head of the procuratorate department, as well as the elder brother of the empress. Their age range was only two years apart, and Wu Li Mei could see their resemblance. One of them was the stare of eyes as sharp as an eagle. The man with a flat face walked up to Wu Li Mei, damn, that flat face was very handsome.

Commander Hao stared intently at Yang Jian Zhu, when the man existed, then everything would be complicated. The order for him was to protect the grand concubine, not to examine her. "You can't capture His Majesty's Concubine without the permission of the emperor."

Yang Jian Zhu returned the gaze of the man his age, his true rival long ago. "We don't need the Emperor's Majesty's permission, because all the evidence is in place."

"Capture the great concubine, now!" a heavy and cold voice filled the examination room, several department prosecutors envoys came forward to arrest Wu Li Mei.

Wussss......

Commander Hao unsheathed his sword, the man and several other soldiers formed a circle to protect Wu Li Mei. "No, we were ordered to. protect the grand concubine."

Jian Zhu smiled obliquely, "You're challenging me, commander in chief?"

With a single hand gesture, Yang Jian Zhu's subordinates unsheathed their swords.

"Alright if you want there to be bloodshed here" Yang Jian Zhu said.

"We will protect the great concubine."

Wu Li Mei glanced to the right and to the left, how is this, there is no way that anyone should be killed just because of her. His goal in coming to this strange land was to spread kindness and knowledge about the world of health. Wu Li Mei looked at Commander Hao and the sword in his hand in turn, the man would probably be fine, considering he was the commander in chief. But, the other soldiers?

Wu Li Mei suppressed his ego, to be honest he was very afraid, but what would he say. The woman was sure that she was right and innocent of anything, "Protect me, O God." Wu Li Mei muttered.

Commander Hao turned his head as his shoulder was patted softly, by Wu Li Mei's delicate hand. "I don't think there should be a fight just to catch me."

"Your Majesty?"

"Calm down, Commander Hao." said Wu Li Mei. "All will be well, I'm innocent, the truth must show the way."

"But, Your Majesty?"

Wu Li Mei smiled gently, the smile she had just shown for the first time. "Tell the emperor that I'll be fine."

Wu Li Mei stepped forward, she stood up gracefully without fear. "Don't you want to arrest me?" ask Yang Jian Zhu.

"I'll come with you, but!"

"But?" repeat Jian Zhu.

"I don't want to be dragged, I can walk alone." Wu Li Mei hated any strangers touching her, as long as she was a grand concubine, she severely restricted her interactions with many people.

It seemed like what the righteous people said, Wu Li Mei was different. Her pretty face and the look in her eyes really drugged anyone who looked at her. Yang Jian Zhu began to justify Wu Li Mei's matchless charm. "Okay, Your Majesty."
