"Why are you slandering me! What reason do I have to do this! This is about my reputation!" Huo Siyue cried and fainted several times.
Su Jinhuan and Huo Siyu looked at each other and remained silent.
After Huo Siyue finished crying, Su Jinhuan continued: "Are you done crying?"
Huo Siyue raised his head and looked at Su Jinhuan blankly.
"The princess is done crying, we can continue the interrogation."
Before Huo Siyue could react, Su Jinhuan pulled up a chair and sat down, staring firmly at the man in front of her.
He was the one who just identified Su Jinhuan.
"I'll give you another chance to reorganize the language."
The man glanced at Huo Siyue tremblingly, feeling scared and uneasy.
Several people behind him looked at each other, wondering what happened.
Seeing that the man didn't speak, Huo Siyu said coldly: "You two don't agree with each other."
He stared at the people behind him and said, "The person in front of you said it was Mr. Su who ordered this."
Several people looked startled.
Huo Siyu continued: "In this case, someone must have lied."
"Your Majesty, it's not us, we didn't lie!" Several people hurriedly explained.
"Then you should find a way to prove that you are not lying. As for those who lie, I have plenty of ways to punish them."
There was a sinister look in his eyes, which made several people shrink their necks in fear.
"We don't dare to lie! Your Majesty, this was all his idea. If it hadn't been for him, we wouldn't have gotten involved in this matter."
"Yes, he said it himself. This is an errand assigned by the princess. Let us not neglect it."
"Now he has changed his story again, and I don't know what happened..."
Several people said the same thing.
Huo Siyu turned his eyes to the man in front of him again: "Aren't you telling the truth?"
The man sighed: "Ninth Prince, Cao Min hopes that you can protect Cao Min's family."
"Definitely." Huo Siyu nodded.
The man glanced at Huo Siyue and was about to speak, his lips slightly opened.
Huo Siyue's heart rose directly to his throat.
Her palms were sweating nervously as she stared closely at the man in front of her.
"Actually it is……"
Just as the man said three words, a dart was suddenly shot from the window and hit the man's throat. The man's eyes suddenly opened wide and he was killed with one blow. He fell to the ground and did not close his eyes until he died.
Huo Siyu's eyes were cold and he turned to look out the window: "Chase!"
Dong Ming quickly chased after him.
"Who dares to commit an assassination in the palace!" The emperor was furious: "Come here, you must catch this assassin."
All the imperial guards in the palace were dispatched, and the formation was huge.
Concubine Xian hugged Huo Siyue tightly and comforted her.
Huo Siyue lowered his eyes, the pride in his eyes was very obvious.
It wasn't just some good Samaritan who helped her.
"Now that the witness is dead, how will you prove it next?" Concubine Xian raised her eyes and glanced at Su Jinhuan and Huo Siyu.
"Didn't they all confess? It was the princess herself who instigated it!"
"Ha." Concubine Xian snorted coldly: "The three of them learned about this from other people's mouths, which is not enough to prove that it was the princess who did it."
"It has nothing to do with me anyway." Su Jinhuan waved her hand: "There is no witness to prove that I did it."
"You!" Concubine Xian's face became increasingly angry: "Your Majesty, this matter must be brought to justice."
Huo Siyue pulled Concubine Xian's sleeve: "Concubine Xian, let's forget it!"
If she keeps asking like this, she will be exposed sooner or later.
However, Concubine Xian didn't understand the implication of Huo Siyue's words. She held her hand tightly and said, "Siyue, you have been wronged. How can you just let it go? We can't let the criminal go unpunished."
When she said this, she also glanced at Su Jinhuan.
Su Jinhuan nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, Concubine Xian is right."
Seeing how positive she was, the queen pursed her lips and smiled.
This little girl.
However, it seems that Huo Siyue did this thing himself, so it is almost the same.
Only the idiot Concubine Xian didn't see it.
"Jin Huan is right. Since it has caused harm to Si Yue, it must be investigated thoroughly." The queen also agreed.
Concubine Xian was a little confused.
How come one or two people started to support Huo Siyue.
"Your Majesty, we may not wrong our princess." The queen said.
The emperor also nodded: "You are all right, this matter must be investigated."
"I will send people to continue searching for suspicious people." Huo Siyu immediately sent people out.
Huo Siyue panicked.
"Father, brother, I know you are doing it for my own good, but I don't want to pursue it anymore."
"That's not possible." Su Jinhuan smiled and said, "How can you just forget about such a big matter?"
"Su Jinhuan, you have some conscience." Concubine Xian said.
"That's right. After all, the princess is Huo Siyu's only sister. As a sister-in-law, I must seek justice for her."
"Really not." Huo Siyue waved her hands repeatedly.
"Why is the princess so abnormal?" Su Jinhuan raised an eyebrow: "Didn't you complain about your grievances at the beginning? You still want to die. Now we are seeking justice for you and you don't want it anymore. Could it be that you are hiding something from us?"
Everyone's eyes were staring straight at Huo Siyue.
Huo Siyue's whole body froze, cold sweat dripping down his back.
"I just... don't want to trouble you."
"How can this be called trouble?" the queen said, "You are already in such a miserable state, how can we bear to let you continue to be wronged?"
"The queen is right, Siyue, you can rest peacefully. Once there is news, I will keep an eye on it personally."
Huo Siyue couldn't get off the tiger, so he could only respond in a low voice.
"As for these people, they will be put into prison first." The emperor ordered.
Huo Siyu responded.
Several people were taken down.
Su Jinhuan took the queen's arm and left.
Soon, only Huo Siyue and Concubine Xian were left in the house.
Concubine Xian also felt that she had helped Huo Siyue and was very pleased with herself: "Princess, there is no need to thank me, this is what I should do. You also know that after Ling Xu left, I was childless, so I am very happy to be able to help the princess." Happy, I already treat the princess as my own daughter."
Concubine Xian also wanted to get close to her.
Huo Siyue was no longer in the mood to continue Zhou Xuan with this idiot.
She said perfunctorily: "Concubine Xian, please come back, I'm not feeling well."
"Okay, okay, have a good rest."
Concubine Xian was not very happy when she left.
After she left, Huo Siyue lost his temper.
"Idiot! I used to think that Concubine Xian was quite smart, but now it seems that she is just an idiot! So stupid!"
Outside the palace, Concubine Xian was not very happy either. She complained dissatisfiedly to her maid: "What's going on with Huo Siyue? I was kind enough to help her, but she didn't pay much attention to me."
The maid next to me said: "My queen, I don't think you need to please the princess so much."
"What should I do if I don't please you? I don't know where Ling Xu is now. I have to find someone to take care of him quickly, otherwise there will be no place for me in this palace from now on."
