Chapter 129

Bai Susu's words pulled the emperor to the commanding heights.She knelt on the ground and bowed to the emperor, "I also ask the emperor to give His Royal Highness a chance to prove his innocence."

The emperor sat there, looking at the person kneeling on the ground, a pair of black eyes flashed with unknown emotion, "I can give him this chance, if he can't prove his innocence within seven days, he can go to the palace to plead guilty."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Bai Susu was overjoyed, returned the jade pendant in her hand, stood up and walked outside.

Eunuch De Quan, who was beside the emperor, came out with Bai Susu, and stood in front of Zhou Ximing with a smile on his face, "His Royal Highness please get up quickly, the emperor promised to give you seven days to prove your innocence."

"My lord, thank you, Your Majesty." Zhou Ximing thanked, then stood up from the ground.

Eunuch Dequan turned around and left, ignoring the people behind him.

"Are you still able to go?" Bai Susu looked at Zhou Ximing who staggered to his feet, with a look of worry in her eyes. She stood beside him with her arms floating, for fear that he would fall down.

"It's just kneeling for an hour, nothing serious." Zhou Ximing glanced at the closed palace door, feeling a chill in his heart, "Let's leave here first."

Zhou Ximing and Bai Susu left together, and the window of the palace behind them was opened a corner.The emperor inside watched the two of them leave together, frowning slightly.

His son is very capable, but the shortcoming is that he is too capable, which makes people feel jealous.I don't know if he can take advantage of this matter to pull down his prestige in the capital.

Zhou Ximing couldn't understand what the emperor was thinking.Otherwise, it is impossible for the emperor to let him kneel in front of the hall indiscriminately. This is obviously to do these things that are nothing.

Walked out of the palace slowly, got into the carriage parked in front of the palace gate, and only after leaving the palace completely, Zhou Ximing asked her, "Why did you come to the palace?"

"Aying came over and told Xiao Jingyu and me about Ni's stay in the palace, so I took the jade pendant that the emperor rewarded me and entered the palace." Bai Susu looked at him and explained aloud.

"You exchanged that jade pendant for my chance to prove my innocence?" Zhou Ximing looked at Bai Susu with surprise in his eyes.

"En." Bai Susu nodded, "If you don't go there, I'm afraid the emperor will make you kneel for many more hours, and it is possible to convict you."

Just now when Bai Susu made this request with the emperor in the palace, she sensed the emperor's displeasure and hesitation.If Bai Susu didn't go at that time, the emperor would have made Zhou Ximing continue to kneel there.

"You exchanged that jade pendant for me a chance to prove my innocence, wouldn't you feel it's a loss? After all, you kept something for yourself to save your life." Zhou Ximing looked at Bai Susu, staring at him closely.

"I said it's a life-saving thing. It's the same to save your life and mine." Bai Susu looked at him with a smile, "You sent your own bodyguards to protect me like this. It doesn't make sense that you are in trouble." Yes, I will die."

Hearing Bai Susu's words, Zhou Ximing's heart suddenly felt warm.Since he was a child, his mother didn't care about world affairs, and his father didn't like him. No one had ever considered these things for him.

From childhood to adulthood, he has been fighting alone, and no one has ever cared about him or experienced his feelings. Zhou Ximing experienced these things in Bai Susu's body once in a while.

The carriage drove from here to the house where Bai Susu lived, Xiao Jingyu and A Ying were waiting there, and they both breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the two people coming in.

Xiao Jingyu walked up to Zhou Ximing, walked around him, saw that he was fine, and patted him on the shoulder, "I'm sorry, I have caused you trouble because of my recklessness."

"Don't talk about it yet, the emperor gave me seven days to prove my innocence, so hurry up and find evidence." Zhou Ximing sat on a stool beside him and rubbed his knees calmly.

Bai Susu saw his movements, and sat down beside him, "The Li family probably made a trick a long time ago, waiting for you to drill in."

"This Li family is probably just a trickster on the surface. The real murderer behind the scenes may be someone else." Xiao Jingyu thought of someone.

If something happened to Zhou Ximing, who would be most powerful to him, it would undoubtedly be the third prince.

"The most important thing now is to prove that it is the Li family that uses the grain to make sugar, not us." Bai Susu looked at them, "Since the Li family has done this, we must be able to find out something."

"The Li family once went to the outskirts of Beijing to buy grain at a low price. As long as you find out where the grain is shipped and follow the vines, you should be able to find something." Zhou Ximing found out the key. He looked at Aying, "This You should check it yourself."

"Yes!" Ah Ying immediately left here to handle this matter.

"In addition to these, we also need to find out who took the title deed." Zhou Ximing looked at Xiao Jingyu, "I'm afraid there is an eyeliner planted by the third prince in your mansion."

Xiao Jingyu's face tightened. It is not uncommon to see eyeliners in the mansion, but if you don't know about these eyeliners, it is a great hidden danger.

"I'll go back and check." Xiao Jingyu immediately stood up, turned to them, and left in a hurry.

Seeing Aying and Xiao Jingyu leave, Bai Susu turned her eyes to the knees he had been rubbing, "How are your legs now?"

Zhou Ximing stopped the slight movements in his hands, and looked at Bai Susu, "It's just that I've been kneeling for a long time, and I didn't react for a while."

"I'm afraid it's going to be bruised." Bai Susu thought of the place back then, only the road in the middle was paved with stone slabs, and the roads on both sides were all gravel. It must have been very painful to kneel on it.

"I'm afraid the way you knelt just now was not always on the stone road, right?" If he just knelt on the stone road for an hour, he wouldn't be in so much pain.

Zhou Ximing didn't expect Bai Susu to observe so carefully, he paused, and said: "In the beginning, I knelt on the gravel road for half an hour."

really.

Bai Susu turned around and went to the house, took out the best medicine for reducing bruises from the system, walked over and handed it to Zhou Ximing, "You will let this medicine be rubbed on your knees, and rub it for two or three days. Time should be fine."

Zhou Ximing took it over, "Thank you."

"You apply the medicine first, and I'll cook you something tonic." Bai Susu said, then turned and went to the kitchen.

Complementing the shape with the shape is the best way, Bai Susu took out a lot of pork bones with bone marrow, and stewed pork bone soup for Zhou Ximing to drink, and she added a lot of ingredients in it.
