Xiao Mucheng pointed at Luo Yao with an indignant look, "Uncle, this person has ulterior motives. She is not a good person. You must believe me."
Luo Yao walked over with slightly raised lips and slapped Xiao Mucheng hard on the face.
Luo Yao, who had regained his internal strength, struck hard. Xiao Mucheng staggered back a few steps. Blood seeped out from the corners of his mouth. He moved his mouth and spit out two teeth.
He was a high-ranking eldest prince, and he was the only one who hit others for his own sake, but today he was actually beaten by a woman.
What a shame!
He walked up to Luo Yao with angry eyes, pointed at her nose and said, "How dare you..."
boom!
Before he could finish his words, he flew out in a daze and hit the palace wall not far away.
His man stood there as if he was stupid, with no intention of going up to help him.
Xiao Mufeng lay on the ground for a long time before he said anything, "You losers, help me up quickly."
His men immediately stepped forward and hurriedly helped him up.
Luo Yao clapped her hands and stood looking at him coldly, "You are just a banned sinner now. You should go back and repent, instead of yelling at me here."
"you……"
Staring at her fiercely, Xiao Mufeng looked at Xiao Yan again, "Uncle Emperor, you..."
"The eldest prince, please return home early!" Xiao Yan interrupted him.
From the beginning to the end, Xiao Yan did not react at all to Luo Yao's attack on Xiao Mufeng.
It was as if he could see everything.
"Uncle Emperor..."
Xiao Yan ignored Xiao Mufeng and left with Luo Yao.
Xiao Mufeng stood there unwillingly, with a fierce look in his eyes.
I won't let it go like this!
…
Changchun Palace.
The queen sat dignifiedly on the couch, seemingly unaffected by Xiao Mucheng's incident.
Concubine Su stood in front of her anxiously, and couldn't help but ask: "Don't you plan to protect the eldest prince?"
"I have protected him so many times, but he has never repented. He brought this on himself."
"Then our plan..."
The Queen interrupted Su Fei abruptly, "Without him, our plan would not have failed."
"No matter what decision you make, I will help you." Su Fei said.
…
As soon as Xiao Yan's carriage stopped outside the gate of Prince Li's Mansion, a familiar voice sounded outside the carriage.
"I am here to see King Li and Princess Li."
Hearing Luo Zhenming's voice, Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows and looked at Luo Yao.
Luo Yao shrugged helplessly, as if he didn't know how he came.
The two of them calmed down for a moment before getting off the carriage one after another.
Xiao Yan glanced at Luo Yao and spoke first, "Why is Prime Minister Luo here?"
"Hearing the news that King Li and Princess Li were comatose one after another, Wei Chen couldn't sit still at home. After thinking about it, he decided to come to visit King Li and Princess Li." Luo Zhenming said.
"My king is fine."
Xiao Yan turned to look at Luo Yao, "Since Prime Minister Luo is here, then the princess should talk to the Prime Minister!"
"good."
After Xiao Yan left, Luo Yao reluctantly brought Luo Zhenming into Prince Li's Mansion and entertained him in the front hall.
Will Luo Zhenming be worried about her?
What a huge joke.
The servant poured tea for Luo Zhenming and exited the front hall. At this time, Luo Yao and Luo Zhenming's father and daughter were left in the front hall.
Luo Yao asked bluntly: "Dad, what do you want from me?"
With no outsiders present, Luo Zhenming quickly assumed the airs of an elder, and his eyes towards Luo Yao also changed.
"Have you heard about the eldest prince?"
"heard."
"The emperor ordered Wang Li to investigate this matter thoroughly, right?"
The information is quite good.
They had just returned from the palace when Luo Zhenming knew that Xiao Yan wanted to thoroughly investigate Xiao Mucheng.
Luo Zhenming lazily changed his sitting position and said in a matter-of-fact tone: "You can find a way to help the eldest prince say something nice in front of King Li and cover up this matter."
Did she hear it correctly?
"You want me to find a way to help the eldest prince escape the crime?" Luo Yao asked with a surprised look on his face.
Luo Zhenming said seriously: "The eldest prince is not guilty to begin with, how can he be freed from guilt?"
How could he have the nerve to say such words while licking his face?
Even if he doesn't believe that Xiao Mucheng did something else, what about Xiaoxue?
Xiaoxue is still living in the inn and hasn't returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, so they don't care at all?
Or are they already convinced that Xiaoxue died at the hands of Xiao Mucheng, and are anxious to find her because they are afraid that the eldest prince's anger will burn them?
How did Lan Qin fall in love with such a selfish and indifferent person?
Luo Zhenming refreshed her image in her heart time and time again.
"Whether the eldest prince is guilty or not is not up to you. The prince will investigate on his own."
After a pause, she changed the subject, "But what you said just now makes me feel that the eldest prince is not innocent at all."
Luo Zhenming slapped the table and stood up, glaring at her with a pair of angry eyes, "Why are you talking?"
"Is not it?"
"you……"
She turned around with her back to Luo Zhenming, "I'm not feeling well, you'd better go back as soon as possible! I'll send him off not far away."
After saying that, she left the front hall without even looking at Luo Zhenming.
Luo Zhenming turned blue with anger and left Prince Li's Mansion with complaints against Luo Yao.
On that day, Xiao Yan teamed up with the Pingdu government office and began to investigate Xiao Mufeng's matter.
Before they could do anything, people who had been harmed by Xiao Mucheng appeared in the government office one after another and made all kinds of atrocities committed by Xiao Mucheng public.
In half a day, Xiao Yan collected confessions from several people identifying Xiao Mufeng.
The investigation went surprisingly smoothly.
But Xiao Yan was not happy at all.
At night, Xiao Yan took the initiative to appear in Luoyao's yard for the first time.
Bi Tao saw her and hurriedly greeted her with a smile, "The prince is here. The princess is in the house and hasn't rested yet."
"You should step back first!"
"yes."
Luo Yao was sitting on the sofa reading a storybook, and the soft light shone on her smiling face. It was the first time that Xiao Yan saw a woman smile so beautifully.
Besides being beautiful, it also gave him an inexplicable feeling of familiarity.
why is that?
When Luo Yao was flipping through the book, she caught a glimpse of Xiao Yan standing at the door. She closed the book and looked at Xiao Yan.
"How did you come?"
Xiao Yan hid his messy thoughts, entered the room expressionlessly, and sat down next to her.
Luo Yao frowned slightly, "You didn't go to investigate the eldest prince's affairs, why did you still have the time to come to my place?"
"Finished."
"So fast?"
Xiao Yan turned to look at her, "As soon as I arrived at the government office, I saw many people who had been persecuted by Xiao Mufeng, and I also obtained their confessions identifying Xiao Mufeng."
As a prince, he is also a candidate for the future prince.
But he treats innocent people with extreme cruelty and often kills those around him. This kind of person is not worthy of being a prince at all.
Xiao Mufeng was completely out of luck for the throne.
"So smooth?" Luo Yao looked surprised.
Xiao Yan asked back: "Didn't you do it?"
"what did I do?"
Luo Yao was confused by his question and had no idea what he was talking about.
