Shen Luoxi was shivering all over, and the emperor and queen led a group of people towards her.
"Luoxi, the imperial doctor will be here soon. Now you go to the side hall to change clothes." The emperor said.
The Queen stepped forward compassionately and helped her up, but when she saw the scar that could not be covered by her hands, she couldn't help but gasp.
The intact half of Shen Luoxi's face was as complete as mutton-fat jade, but the half with the sores made people dare not look directly at it.
"What happened just now? Okay, why did you suddenly fall into the water?" the emperor asked.
Before Shen Luoxi could speak, Princess Lian walked up to the emperor first and saluted, with a hint of grievance on her face.
"Your Majesty, the Queen, she spoke rudely to me and called me a dog. You see, Princess Xuan caught her."
"I was really angry, so I argued with Princess Xuan for a few words, and she started to argue with me. If I hadn't been clever, I would have been the one who fell into the pool just now!"
Everyone looked at Shen Luoxi with even more disgust. Even if they lowered their voices, those bad words still reached her ears word for word.
"He is really ugly and his heart is even uglier, and his thoughts are too vicious!"
"It's not enough to call Princess Lian a dog. She actually wants to kill people. I don't know what she is thinking!"
Shen Luoxi lowered his eyes and said nothing, already rolling his eyes in his heart.
It's true that the villain complained first. Those scratches on Princess Lian's hands, anyone with a little knowledge of medical skills could tell at a glance that they were scratched by herself.
The emperor frowned and said, "Luoxi, please tell me."
Shen Luoxi lowered his eyes and trembled slightly. Cang Yunxuan took off his robe and handed it to her with a cold face.
Shen Luoxi was a little surprised when she saw the robe in front of her, but she didn't refuse.
At least this man has some conscience.
She put on her robe and raised her eyes to look at the emperor, "If Princess Lian hadn't insulted her first, I wouldn't have had a quarrel with her."
"Everyone in the city knows that I have a very ugly scar on my face. How many people are not laughing at me behind my back? Princess Lian mocked me twice and three times, and I got angry and argued with Princess Lian..."
"Now that my ugly appearance has been seen by everyone, everyone is happy and tired of it. Princess Lian should be satisfied, right?"
Shen Luoxi looked at Princess Lian with red eyes, crying every word with a trembling voice.
Princess Lian was stunned and hurriedly retorted: "You are slanderous! Do you have any evidence that I deliberately made you look embarrassed?"
"Then Princess Lian said that I insulted you, who can prove it?" Shen Luoxi asked, "But I fell into the water, made a fool of myself, and almost lost my life."
The two of them insisted on their own opinions, but the eyes of everyone looking at Princess Lian became subtle.
Compared with Princess Lian's accusation, Shen Luoxi's words were obviously more reasonable.
After all, who would curse someone for no reason?
Princess Lian also felt everyone's gaze, gritted her teeth secretly, and gave Shen Luoxi a vicious look.
She really underestimated Shen Luoxi!
At first, everyone turned towards her, but Shen Luoxi reversed the outcome with just a few words.
Originally, they wanted to embarrass Shen Luoxi and Cang Yunxuan together, but now it's better. If you steal the chicken, you will lose the rice.
Now she couldn't think of anything to say in reply, so she could only remain silent.
What storms and waves have the Emperor and Queen not seen before? After looking at Princess Lian's expression, she made a guess.
"I already know what happened. Such a big thing happened at the palace banquet. It's lucky that no one was killed. No matter whether it was intentional or unintentional, you can't escape the blame."
"Princess Lian intends to murder Princess Xuan. She will go back and spend a month behind closed doors, copying the Pure Heart Sutra a thousand times."
When Shen Luoxi heard the emperor's decision, he lowered his eyes and said, "The emperor is wise." But he knew in his heart that this punishment sounded serious, but in reality it was lifted high and put down gently.
But the emperor had already spoken, and she couldn't say anything else, but the relationship between her and Princess Lian was finally settled.
Princess Lian was asked away by the eunuch with a sullen face. King Lian just glanced at her without saying anything, then turned around and followed the emperor back to the main hall, as if nothing had happened.
Some of the female relatives walked a little slower, looking at Shen Luoxi with a playful look, and gloating about his misfortune.
"It's really off-putting. Something like this happened to a fine palace banquet. Look at her face!"
"No wonder Princess Lian pushed her down. She looks like a monster, so scary!"
Shen Luoxi didn't take it seriously and was about to follow the eunuch to the side hall to change clothes when Cang Yunxuan walked beside her. She raised her eyebrows slightly, thinking that Cang Yunxuan was going to say something, but before Cang Yunxuan could speak, Ning Yanran's soft voice sounded first.
"Everyone, my sister has already suffered what happened today. Please don't stab me again and dislike my sister."
"If you want to say something, just say it to me. I will take the blame for my sister."
Shen Luoxi raised his eyes to look at her and felt funny when he saw her coy look.
Ning Yanran's words sounded like she was defending her, but in fact they were adding fuel to the fire.
"So what if we say it? She is ugly, but we can't say anything?"
"I'm not allowed to say it, but I insist on saying it, ugly monsters are disgusting!"
Ning Yanran's eyes widened pitifully, as if she couldn't bear the bad words and was shaking, "You... you guys, stop talking..."
Shen Luoxi rolled his eyes calmly and was about to say something when a cold voice sounded in his ears.
"That's enough. She is my king's concubine no matter what, and I won't tolerate your irresponsible remarks."
Cang Yunxuan looked at them coldly, so frightened that the female relatives quickly turned and left.
He raised his eyes and turned to Ning Yanran, "This is the palace. You don't have the right to speak. I have to act like a concubine outside."
Ning Yanran didn't expect that Cang Yunxuan would attack her. She opened her mouth, but in the end she just whispered "I'm in the wrong body" with red eyes.
Shen Luoxi looked at Cang Yunxuan with some surprise. It turned out that he still had some conscience.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, I..."
Before Shen Luoxi could finish speaking, Cang Yunxuan interrupted her.
"That's enough. Don't you think you've embarrassed yourself enough today? Change your clothes and go back to the palace!"
Shen Luoxi's face darkened. She really couldn't have any expectations for this bitch.
"Princess Lian pushed me into the pool, what should I be ashamed of? Wasn't it the prince who was embarrassed in the first place?"
Cang Yunxuan frowned, "I have no intention of distinguishing with you. If you are interested, don't let me say it a second time!"
Ning Yanran watched from the side, secretly happy in her heart, she knew that Cang Yunxuan would not protect Shen Luoxi.
She Rourou stepped forward to stop her and said, "Your Majesty, please stop reprimanding my sister. My sister did not intend to argue with Princess Lian. Your Majesty, please forgive my sister."
Shen Luoxi was about to speak, but Cang Yunxuan was one step ahead of her.
"You've seen a lot of things today, so there's no need to keep them. You can go back to the palace with her."
