Her Highness Doesn’t Want to Work Hard Anymore

As soon as this remark came out, everyone in the audience was shocked.

The painters stopped their pens one after another and looked at the emperor uneasily.

The queen couldn't help asking: "How is this possible? Is it a mistake?"

Wu Wang said respectfully.

"This is what Li Zhaoyuan said. She is outside. If you don't believe me, you can call her in and ask."

The queen was even more surprised. Why is Li Zhaoyuan involved?

She immediately ordered someone to call Li Zhaoyuan in.

Li Zhaoyuan was helped into Mingxiu Pavilion.

She ran all the way in a hurry, her face was covered with cold sweat, and her eyes were full of panic.

As soon as she saw the emperor, she fell to her knees with a plop, as if seeing a savior.

"Your Majesty, King Zhao has privately hidden the jade seal, and he wants to plot rebellion!"

The emperor frowned and was extremely displeased: "Nonsense! The jade seal has always been kept with me and has never been lost. Besides, King Zhao is loyal to me, how could he rebel?!"

Li Zhaoyuan was frightened by his sharp gaze, but she mustered up her courage and told the story of how she found the jade seal from the residence of King Zhao from the beginning to the end.

Finally, she took out the jade seal from her bosom and offered it with both hands.

Because she was too nervous, her hands couldn't help shaking, and she almost couldn't hold Fang Yuxi.

In Mingxiu Pavilion, all eyes were on Yuxi.

The emperor glanced at Wu Wang.

Wu Wang understood, reached out to take the jade seal, and presented it to the emperor.

The emperor uses jade seals every day, and no one is more familiar with jade seals than him.

He only took one look, and he was already able to distinguish clearly.

"This is a fake jade seal."

Li Zhaoyuan obviously didn't expect such a reversal, so she couldn't help being stunned.

But she quickly reacted and said eagerly.

"Even if it is a fake, it was found from King Zhao's residence. I copied the jade seal privately, and the intention of treason is clearly revealed!"

This remark is not without reason.

Whether it is a private possession of a jade seal or a private fabrication of a jade seal, it is a serious crime enough to kill one's head.

Li Zhaoyuan was afraid that the emperor would not believe her words, so she continued.

"When the jade seal was found, many people saw it. Your Majesty can call those people over and interrogate them one by one. I can swear to God that what I said just now is absolutely true!"

She spoke so confidently that she didn't look like she was lying.

Many people present were already moved by her words, and they all looked at King Zhao with suspicious eyes.

The emperor also looked at King Zhao, and asked in a deep voice.

"what do you want to say?"

From Wu Wang's entry into Mingxiu Pavilion until now, Li Ji has been sitting in a wheelchair without saying a word.

He was like an audience, calmly watching the farce in front of him.

Hearing the emperor's inquiry at this time, Li Ji just smiled and said in a calm and unhurried manner.

"Although the fake jade seal was found from Weichen's residence, it doesn't mean it belongs to Weichen. It may also be deliberately framed by someone else."

The emperor asked again: "Do you have evidence to prove that the fake jade seal is not yours?"

Li Ji: "What's so difficult about this? Please wait a moment, Your Majesty, I will order someone to bring the person who framed it here."

After speaking, he glanced at Chen Wangbei who was standing beside him.

Chen Wangbei understood, and immediately resigned and left.

The next step is to wait quietly.

The painters have all been dismissed, and the princes and princesses have all stood up and stepped aside.

The youngest sixth prince, Li Yi, hid behind Yichongyuan.

Yichongyuan gently held his hand, calming his emotions silently, telling him not to be afraid.

Li Zhaoyuan was the only one present who dared not go to see King Zhao.

This evil god left an extremely deep shadow in her heart, even if she just looked at him, she would be terrified.

Seeing that Li Zhaoyuan was still kneeling, the queen ordered someone to help her up and gave her a cup of tea so that she could take a breath and relax.

At this time, Hua Manman had arrived near Mingxiu Pavilion.

But because she didn't get the emperor's call, she couldn't enter Mingxiu Pavilion, so she could only wander outside the door.

From time to time, she craned her neck to look inside Mingxiu Pavilion, full of anxiety.

I don't know what's going on inside?

She prayed silently, hoping that King Zhao would be safe.

Although this man's personality is terrible, he is not bad to her, and they are now grasshoppers tied to a rope.

If something happened to King Zhao, she would suffer accordingly.

Chen Wangbei quickly left and returned.

He was also carrying an unconscious maidservant on his shoulders.

Hua Manman could not help but be taken aback when he saw the appearance of the palace maid clearly.

It was Aunt Jinzhi!

When Chen Wangbei went to arrest people just now, Jin Zhi tried to resist, Chen Wangbei was afraid that she would jump over the wall and do something stupid, so he slapped her unconscious.

Hua Manman rushed to meet him: "Why did you get the golden branch?"

Chen Wangbei replied concisely.

"It was the lord who asked his subordinates to bring her here for questioning. The lord suspected that she was responsible for the fake jade seal."

Hua Manman was taken aback, and blurted out: "Is the jade seal fake?"

No wonder she is ignorant, in fact, she has never seen what Zhen Yuxi looks like.

At that time, everyone thought it was Yuxi, so she also thought it was Yuxi.

I didn't expect that jade seal to be a fake!

Chen Wangbei nodded: "Yes."

Hua Manman knew that Jin Zhi was not a good person, and also knew that this woman was very cunning.

If you ask her openly, she will definitely not admit anything.

Some special means must be used.

So Hua Manman took out a mantra pill, handed it to Chen Wangbei, and whispered.

"Wait, you quietly stuff this elixir into Jin Zhi's mouth, be careful so that no one will find out."

Chen Wangbei was puzzled: "What is the use of this elixir?"

Hua Manman smiled mysteriously: "You will know when the time comes, you just do what I say, the prince and I are both prosperous and wealthy, and we are both damaged, and it is impossible for me to harm him."

Chen Wangbei hesitated for a moment, then reached out to take the truth pill.

He strode into Mingxiu Pavilion with the golden branch on his shoulder.

As soon as he left, Hua Qingqing hurriedly chased after him.

Seeing that Hua Manman was also here, Hua Qingqing hurriedly asked.

"Second sister, have you seen Chen Shiwei and Aunt Jin Zhi?"

Just now Chen Wangbei broke into her residence suddenly, knocked Jin Zhi unconscious and took Jin Zhi away without saying a word, a series of movements were extremely swift.

When Hua Qingqing came to her senses, Chen Wangbei had already walked away carrying the person.

She was very worried that something would happen to Jin Zhi, and hurried to catch up, trying to figure out what Chen Wangbei wanted to do by kidnapping Jin Zhi.

Hua Manman immediately entered the performance mode and mocked.

"They have already entered Mingxiu Pavilion. I advise you not to interfere in this matter, so as not to be troubled by your capable aunt Jinzhi."

Hua Qingqing became more and more confused: "What happened to Jin Zhi?"

Hua Manman snorted softly: "I'm too lazy to explain to you, you can ask Jin Zhi yourself later, and see what stupid things she has done."

Inside Mingxiu Pavilion.

Chen Wangbei threw the golden branch to the ground, and stretched out his hand to pinch her.

The moment she woke up from the pain.

Taking advantage of her unpreparedness, Chen Wangbei quickly stuffed the truth pill into her mouth.
