The emperor was angry, but no one dared to speak.
Li Dequan waved his hand and ordered the guards on both sides to give way to avoid disturbing the situation.
Xiao Heng's face was ugly, and cold sweat broke out on his temples: "Father! Concubine Yi and the empress have always been at odds. What she said may not be taken seriously. The empress is a deceased mother. How can you, how can you doubt her? "
In his desperation, he didn't know that these words touched Xiao Shenggao's bottom even more.
It sounded like Xiao Shenggao was looking for trouble. .
Seeing that he didn't speak, Xiao Heng knelt down and begged: "Father, Mingcha! Even if the mother wants to do something, is it possible that she, the great mother of the country, still has to rely on a little concubine?"
After hearing this, Concubine Yi sneered: "His Royal Highness, what he said is as if a noble concubine of this palace wants to embarrass a little concubine. You can tell if it is true or false. Is the prince delaying here to delay time? ?”
When she was talking, Xiao Heng kept staring at her, as if he was going to eat her alive.
Concubine Yi hid behind Xiao Shenggao in fear: "Your Majesty, look, you are still here. The prince seems to want to cut my concubine alive."
Xiao Shenggao was extremely annoyed. He knew very well what the queen was thinking.
Of course, he also knew that Concubine Yi and the Queen had always been at odds with each other, so she might not be really frightened when Concubine Yi made trouble in front of him.
But the queen was obviously even more outrageous.
How dare she plan such a trick on a day like today!
If something really went wrong with Cheng Jingyu, wouldn't they, Xi Chu, be completely embarrassed in front of Nie Wenxun?
"You also said that you have to excuse the mother of the country for doing such a thing!"
Xiao Shenggao scolded, and Xiao Heng's whole body trembled.
Cheng Jingyu looked at it coldly, feeling filled with disgust.
In his previous life, Xiao Heng was rarely reprimanded by the emperor, so he could not be seen as a coward in front of Xiao Shenggao.
His spine was curved, and he didn't have the grace that a prince should have at all.
Concubine Yi's eyes were full of contempt, and she looked at Cheng Jingyu: "This matter concerns the princess, what does the princess think?"
When the question was posed to her, Cheng Jingyu calmly lowered the sharpness in her eyes. When she lowered her eyes, she looked like a calm and gentle girl from an aristocratic family, and she seemed a little aggrieved.
Then she knelt down and said, "Sister, even if she was confused and hurt the princess last time, her nature is good after all. This time, it may be a misunderstanding. Your Majesty, please investigate clearly."
She was neither humble nor arrogant, but her words immediately reminded everyone of the last hunting ground.
The memory came back. Xiao Xiao, as Xiao Shenggao's beloved little daughter, was almost drugged with love/love drugs at the hunting ground. He almost forgot!
"Yes! Wasn't the matter of drugging last time related to your little sister? Now it's all handled by the queen, and she let him go?!"
Xiao Heng's face turned pale for a moment.
How could Concubine Yi let her go? She took advantage of every opportunity and said, "I just saw the second girl of the Cheng family dressed up. She didn't look like she just came out of prison. Didn't the Queen let her go a long time ago?"
Everything was silent.
Even Cheng Jingyu, who was kneeling, could feel the strong anger on Xiao Shenggao's body.
He said no more, left everyone behind and stepped into the plum garden first.
With such a windy pace, he seemed a bit impatient - impatient to deal with the Queen.
When Xiao Heng saw this, he stood up quickly and staggered after him.
He didn't even have time to glare at Cheng Jingyu.
Cheng Jingyu brushed away a leaf that had fallen on her lap, and another hand appeared in front of her.
The hand was strong and powerful, the palm was covered with sword cocoon, and it was slender but not thin.
Unlike Fu Yanci's, probably because his skin color was too fair, his hands were always thin, white and slender, with fingers as green as green jade and not stained by any dust.
Nie Wenxun's voice came from above his head: "Princess, what are you still kneeling on? Let's go see your sister quickly. What if something happens?"
Her thoughts were interrupted, Cheng Jingyu raised her eyes and clearly saw a hint of teasing hidden in Nie Wenxun's eyes.
It is Nie Wenxun's character to see through that she was doing it on purpose, and not to reveal it and still act on purpose.
This person is just a person who doesn't take things too seriously.
But this hand - everyone in front of everyone wanted to see Cheng Jingyu's reaction.
After all, everyone knew very well what the purpose of Nie Wenxun's visit to Xichu was.
Just now, Nie Wenxun had already helped Cheng Jingyu, and the two of them seemed to be in love and good things were about to happen.
If this hand is held again, there will be good news in Kyoto tomorrow. .
How could Cheng Jingyu not understand that Nie Wenxun did it on purpose.
And if so, Xiao Shenggao would be more convinced of her desire to marry Nie Wenxun.
She reached up and felt a slight discomfort when her hand was dry.
After standing up, he quickly withdrew.
He ignored the compliments from around him and just glanced at Fu Yanci's expression quickly.
She didn't know why, but she was particularly concerned about Fu Yanci's emotions.
But he didn't look here at all, he just stared at the uppers of his shoes, his face was calm and he didn't know what he was thinking.
——I think he must be unhappy. On such an occasion, he was just used as a thorn by Xiao Shenggao.
Nie Wenxun was quite surprised and raised his eyebrows: "I don't know how to sing the princess's play."
This was said so quietly that only a few people around them could hear it clearly.
Concubine Yi was one. She glanced at Cheng Jingyu and said, "Isn't it true? The princess's stage is so well set up that I don't even know that I will be on stage today."
After saying that, he walked away.
Concubine Yi should be angry. She is a smart person and would not understand that Cheng Jingyu lent her hand.
Xiao Shenggao would definitely think of her if she wanted to appreciate the plum blossoms for no reason, invited her over and discovered the queen, so she would not let go of this opportunity to win over the queen.
This stage is set up, and Cheng Jingyu would be sorry if Concubine Yi didn't appear.
But she would naturally be angry when she became the one who stood out.
It seems that I should find some time to apologize privately.
Seeing their dillydallying, the other officials hurriedly followed Concubine Yi.
Who wouldn’t watch the excitement?
Not to mention the excitement of the queen!
There were only three people walking around. Nie Wenxun glanced at Fu Yanci, shook his head and walked forward, sighing: "Concubine Yi thinks she is a standout, so why am I not the same? When we first met, the princess was really called It’s a pleasant surprise.”
This man's heart turned out to be very clear.
When only Cheng Jingyu and Fu Yanci were left, Cheng Jingyu looked at Fu Yanci's cold face like a cedar and mustered up her courage: "Your Highness, just now I——"
Fu Yanci raised his feet, without even looking at her, and interrupted her: "I borrowed it."
