Fast Time Travel: The Villain's Self-Saving Strategy

A month later, the palace.

Today is the imperial concubine's birthday banquet. The maids and eunuchs in the imperial concubine's palace have been busy since early in the morning, and the palace was very lively for a while.

It will soon be night, and this is the highlight of the birthday banquet.Because Emperor Yan specially allowed the noble concubine to have a grand banquet, the female relatives of the ministers will also bring their birthdays to congratulate tonight.

"The Palace of the Minister of Rites sent a pair of golden hooks and jade, a pair of thousand-fold butterfly shadow headdresses, and a pair of Hetian jade cups!"

"At the mansion of the Minister of War..."

At the banquet, the lights were bright, singing and dancing were uplifting, and wine and wine were intertwined. All the female relatives had already taken their seats, and Yang Chuqing, the prince and concubine, also went to the banquet on behalf of the second prince's residence.

What everyone didn't know was that at this moment another group of people was rushing from the garden to the banquet venue. The leader was a dignified middle-aged man in a yellow robe, followed by a group of young people, including Mu Yang!

This was the way the emperor and his group took the princes and He Yunhao and other young people to the imperial concubine's birthday banquet.

Speaking of which, this is the first time that Mu Yang "rehabilitated after injury" met his brothers.He was not at all restrained, and he got along quite harmoniously with everyone, and the question and answer exchanges were very smooth, without arousing the suspicion of others at all.At most, his brothers just felt that their second brother got along better, and had no other feelings.

After a while, everyone came to the palace where the birthday banquet was held, Zhongcui Palace.The timing of everyone's arrival was very coincidental, just when everyone was curious about Mo Nianqiao's poems dedicated to the imperial concubine and were about to show them.Of course, this is not a coincidence, it is the result of Mu Yang's deliberate guidance.

When everyone found that Emperor Yan was coming, they saluted together.On the top stage, an elegant woman in palace attire stepped off the stage with a smile and bowed. This is the mother of the Fourth Prince Huangfu Hao, Concubine Yong.

"The emperor came just in time," Concubine Yong said with a smile, "This concubine is about to enjoy Master Mo's works with all the wives!"

"Oh?" Emperor Yan asked with a smile, "What kind of poem is this time?"

"Hehe, Master Mo said that this poem was written for the concubine." Concubine Yong covered her mouth and smiled, but her eyes revealed satisfaction.In fact, she already knew about Mo Nianqiao, and she knew it from her son, the Fourth Prince.In her opinion, Mo Nianqiao's current status, as long as the emperor values ​​it, it is fine to be a side concubine.The status of the princess is too humble.

"Is this really the case?" Emperor Yan was very interested.

"Going back to the emperor, just like what the empress said." Mo Nianqiao gracefully stood up and responded with a salute.

"Then I want to listen."

The princes behind the emperor were also very curious. They knew that Master Mo, who had been rumored for a long time, was a woman, but they were seeing each other for the first time.Among them, there are two people with particularly focused eyes, one is the young master He Yunhao, and the other is naturally the fourth prince Huangfu Hao.As for our ex-boyfriend, His Highness the Second Prince?Watching a play.

The emperor has an order, and Mo Nianqiao naturally agreed, after all, she is full of confidence in her poems.Mo Nianqiao, who was about to blurt it out, suddenly subconsciously glanced at He Shiyan's side, it should be all right this time, right?Mo Nianqiao hesitated for a moment. Others thought she was meditating. Emperor Yan looked at her with flickering eyes, but did not speak.

Mo Nianqiao still made up his mind, there can be no second time traveler!It must be He Shiyan, a despicable villain, who bribed this lowly maid in Lvyi to betray me!Reminiscent of the erratic eyes that Lv Yi had looked at her a few days ago, Mo Nianqiao became even more certain.

Having figured it out, Mo Nianqiao clearly recited the poem with a gentle voice: "Yun Xiang's clothes are beautiful and beautiful, and the spring breeze blows the threshold of Revlon. If you don't meet at the top of Qunyu Mountain, you will meet at Yaotai under the moon."

……

A silence.

Mo Nianqiao was a little uneasy, but after someone blurted out the first "Okay!", praises and exclamations flooded towards Mo Nianqiao like a flood.Mo Nianqiao was finally relieved, and an unparalleled pride welled up in her heart.

The ministers and female relatives were all amazed at the beauty and delicacy of this poem, and applauded one after another. This has already praised the imperial concubine as the queen mother in the sky!The noble concubine was quite satisfied, and the more she watched Mo Nianqiao, the more she liked it.A group of princes behind the emperor also applauded, the love in the eyes of the young master was even stronger, and the fourth prince Huangfu Hao stared at Mo Nianqiao with interest, and there was a certainty in his eyes!

But there are two exceptions, one is naturally Mu Yang, and the other...

"Mo Nianqiao, I ask you, did you compose this poem yourself?" Emperor Yan suddenly asked sharply.

This question stunned everyone present, including Mo Nianqiao, of course.There was a hint of guilt and fear overflowing in the depths of her heart.She forced herself to calm down and controlled her trembling voice: "Your Majesty, it was written by my daughter. I don't know why the emperor asked this question. My daughter also had a similar misunderstanding when she wrote the lyrics, but my daughter is innocent. Please look into it clearly. After Mo Nianqiao's explanation, everyone came to their senses and spoke up for Mo Nianqiao.

"That's right, Your Majesty, everyone Mo can't be this kind of person. This must be a misunderstanding!"

"Since everyone in Mo has written so many poems, it is not impossible to be tricked by villains..."

"Your Majesty, you must return Mo everyone's innocence!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, is there a misunderstanding?" The imperial concubine also asked Emperor Yan in a low voice.

Everyone wants to calm down, and everyone thinks it was a misunderstanding.Emperor Yan was silent, did not speak, and did not accept this article calmly as everyone hoped.

Mu Yang was hidden among the princes, watching Mo Nianqiao's performance indifferently.Mo Nianqiao is really not simple, first she made a final decision to show her innocence, then she gave a reasonable reason for everyone to stand on her side, and finally put a certain high hat on the emperor to win over public opinion, in front of so many people, I am afraid it is really true It can only be revealed.

But will Mu Yang let things end so easily?of course not!He came here to spoil the scene today!

Emperor Yan's silence made the atmosphere of the scene become oppressive and dull. The whispers had disappeared, and now it was so quiet that even a needle could be heard falling on the ground.Mo Nianqiao knelt on the ground, not daring to look at Emperor Yan's expression, but felt that her breathing was getting heavier and heavier.Suddenly, out of the corner of her eye, she saw a mocking smiling face.

"Bump!" A string broke in his mind, He Shiyan!Mo Nianqiao's mind flashed like lightning - I can only ask you to go into the water, He Shiyan!Anyway, you have no good intentions, you will understand me, right?

"Your Majesty! My daughter has something to say." Mo Nianqiao said suddenly, and everyone's attention was on her.

"Say."

"I didn't actually prepare this poem a few days ago, but prepared two other poems. Unexpectedly, my maid, Lu Yi, stole it and dedicated it to He Shiyan, the eldest lady of the Hou Mansion. Zhi was also shocked, so he changed the poem midway. The poems written by the courtiers are indeed written by the courtiers, but the courtiers do not rule out..." Mo Nianqiao didn't say the rest, but everyone already understood what she meant.

"You! You're lying! I've never been to the Seventh Prince's Mansion! I don't know any green clothes!" A pretty girl in yellow skirt rushed out from the banquet, with an anxious and wronged face, and angrily accused Mo Nianqiao. Isn't it He Shiyan, the eldest lady of the Hou Mansion?

"Now that everyone is here, the fun has begun." In a corner where no one was paying attention, Mu Yang's mouth curled into a playful smile.

"Shiyan!" He Yunhao looked at He Shiyan with some worry, and thought of Mo Nianqiao, feeling very entangled in his heart.

"Do you have evidence?" Emperor Yan asked directly.

"Yes" Mo Nianqiao nodded, took out a thin piece of letter paper, and handed it to Emperor Yan with his head bowed, "This is what I got by accident, with He Shiyan's handwriting on it, and the seal of the Houfu, the emperor can send it if you don't believe it." People check."

After Mo Nianqiao finished speaking, everyone's eyes on He Shiyan changed.Unexpectedly, the majestic eldest lady of the Hou's Mansion, the future Seventh Princess, would surrender herself to do such a dirty and depraved thing!

"You! You lied!" He Shiyan was going crazy with anger, his eyes were red.

"Then is this yours? To be honest, I naturally know." Emperor Yan asked suddenly.Everyone pricked up their ears and listened, for fear of missing a word.

"Yes, but..." He Shiyan whispered.

"Wow—" There was an uproar at the banquet.Mo Nianqiao lowered her head, no one noticed that the corners of her mouth were slightly raised.

"I didn't expect it to be true!"

"Oh my god, the Hou Mansion has completely lost face!"

Countless voices of questioning and disdainful looks were shot at He Shiyan. This scheming young lady was about to cry at this moment!

"It's not me! I didn't!" He Shiyan's tears fell one by one, why did everyone doubt her!

"I really haven't done these things! I don't know any maids at all!" He Shiyan sobbed anxiously while explaining, "By the way, I showed this to my brother too! He must know what's going on!" He Shiyan finally Thinking about it, he looked behind the crowd as if grasping at the last straw.

Everyone followed her gaze!These little masters were also involved!Everyone thought tonight was absurd, who still remembered that this was originally the imperial concubine's birthday banquet?

"Is that so, Yunhao?" Emperor Yan looked at He Yunhao meaningfully.

He Yunhao was also in a daze at this time, when he saw the piece of paper in Mo Nianqiao's hand, he felt as if he had been hit with a heavy hammer!That was the sister's poem that he showed Mo Nianqiao that day!But now she is using it as a tool to attack her sister.

He Yunhao was about to speak when he felt a fiery gaze looking at him. It was Mo Nianqiao's innocent pleading gaze, and He Yunhao was a little shaken.What if, what if it's really Shiyan who is ignorant?Shi Yan has never liked reading, how could he suddenly write such good poems?

He Yunhao subconsciously chose to believe in Mo Nianqiao. He believed in Mo Nianqiao's talent even more, and he didn't believe in his sister.But he forgot that He Shiyan never told him that it was her own poem.

He Yunhao, who was in pain and entangled, did not speak for a long time. Mo Nianqiao's clear and innocent eyes, and his sister's red and swollen eyes from crying made it difficult for him to make a choice.What should I say?

"Brother, tell me quickly!" He Shiyan looked at He Yunhao anxiously and full of expectation, as long as He Yunhao explained for her, she would have a chance to prove her innocence.She didn't send someone to steal Mo Nianqiao's poems!These poems were not made by Mo Nianqiao at all!She is the real thief!

"I..." He Yunhao looked at Mo Nianqiao who was kneeling weakly and helplessly on the ground, and seemed to have made up his mind, "Back to the emperor, the things belonged to my sister. As for the others... I don't know."

I'm sorry, Shiyan, I will wrong you this time.After today, you will still be the eldest daughter of the Hou Mansion, and Qiaoer, if you are in crisis this time, it will be over in the future.I have to protect her.Brother will definitely compensate you in the future.He Yunhao looked at the dazed He Shiyan and said in his heart, subconsciously avoiding her gaze.

I don't know! ?As soon as this sentence was said, it was even worse for He Shiyan!He Shiyan never expected that his elder brother, who has always loved him, would throw stones at her at this very moment!Does he really know what the consequences will be if this matter falls on her! ?Her reputation, and even the rest of her life, would be ruined because of his "I don't know"!Why can he be so cruel!Is it for that woman?

The pale-faced He Shiyan fell to the ground in a daze, her tears fell as if a thread had been broken, her heart ached as if a knife was being cut over and over again, dripping with blood, it seemed that her courage and confidence to argue before had been completely drained in an instant She just sat there like a dazed child, not speaking in a daze.This hit her a bit too much.

On the other side, Mo Nianqiao spoke at the right time, "Your Majesty, the poem said that she was young and ignorant, so it must not be intentional. I hope you don't pursue it, and let this matter pass."

As soon as Mo Nianqiao said this, everyone immediately applauded Mo Nianqiao and praised her for her generosity and kindness.He Yunhao even gave her a grateful look, and his love grew stronger in his heart.The deep affection in his eyes became more and more obvious, even others could feel it.

"Everyone Mo is kind!"

"Master Mo is such a wonderful woman, she is really a role model for us to learn from!"

"Yeah, neither arrogant nor impetuous, calm and steady, with a certain amount of advance and retreat, generous and kind-hearted, Master Mo is really a role model for women."

Mo Nianqiao lowered her head meekly, no one could see the expression on her face clearly, but Mu Yang knew that she must be smiling at the moment.

"Just pass by like this? I don't want it to just pass by like this..." Suddenly a chuckle sounded in everyone's ears, and Mo Nianqiao felt a sense of uneasiness inexplicably.
