Princess Jincheng's personal maid went to find Jiang Guangxi of the Marquis of Wu'an, and Jiang Guangxi and his son happened to be suspected of rebellion. The first arrow was shot at the consort Ling Xuetang——

In this way, everyone can't help but wonder: Is it Jiang Guangxi and his son who intend to rebel, and it happens that Jiang Guangxi has an affair with Princess Jincheng, so he wants to kill two birds with one stone, and kills Ling Xuetang with the first arrow as a signal of rebellion?

Even the emperor's brows were tightly frowned, and a pair of deep and sharp black eyes looked at the servant with a gloomy look: "Presumptuous! How dare you say that you saw this with your own eyes? To frame a princess is a serious crime to be shot." !"

"I don't dare to make false accusations! I just happened to go to the lower palace to deliver the imperial gift, and I did see the princess's personal servant entering the direction where Marquis Wu'an and the young master are." The servant spoke convincingly, and said, At the same time, he took out a letter from his bosom, bowed his head and presented it, "Your Majesty, at that time Princess Jincheng's personal maid accidentally fell to Luopa's side, you can check it."

The servant next to Emperor Zhang Wu quickly presented Luopa to the emperor.

Hearing this, Luan Jing fell to her knees with a plop, stepped forward on her knees, and shouted for grievances: "Your Majesty, I don't have any, that Fang Luopa was accidentally lost by my servant when I was walking yesterday, and I don't know how it fell into this person's hands." , he must have stolen the servant's Ropa to frame the princess!"

Mu Xianyi also walked up to Emperor Zhang Wu, knelt down, his back was straight, and his beautiful face was full of determination: "Father, my son will never do such shameless things. Pa, it's too absurd for Luo Pa, who is not my son, to say that my son had an affair with Jiang Guangxi!"

Emperor Zhang Wu's imposing face was expressionless, his eyelids lowered, and he asked in a deep voice: "Then your maidservant, did you go to the lower palace or not?"

"Going." Mu Xianyi admitted without hesitation, and there was no evasive look in his eyes.

Everyone started talking immediately.

"The princess herself admits that she sent her maidservant to the lower palace. Is there anything else to say?" Prime Minister Pei Xuandao said with a mocking smile on his lips. There are quarrels in the house...the princess wants not to hug the pipa, I don't know."

Mu Xianyi sneered, and looked at Pei Xuandao, his bright black eyes were like sharp daggers - this Pei Xuandao, since Huang Yuzhen's incident last time, has always held a grudge against himself and the Zhen Guogong, and now he is taking the opportunity Play, want to put yourself to death.He covered the corners of his lips with a handkerchief: "Pei Xiang has sharp eyes and ears, and he has heard such rumors from the deep house, so he must have talked with the woman in the house a lot, right?"

This is ridiculing him like a woman in the inner house, prying into privacy and chewing people's tongues.

Pei Xuandao's complexion changed, and his slender eyes were stained with a bit of gloom, but he still kept a smile on his face: "Many people present have heard about it, but I'm just telling the truth!"

At this moment, Ling Xuetang couldn't hold back, strode up to Mu Xianyi's side, knelt down and faced the emperor together, and said: "Your Majesty, the little minister and the princess are very affectionate and affectionate, and I don't know who is spreading rumors outside, saying that the little minister Not compatible with the princess! A few days ago, the minister and the princess were still wondering why some people spread such rumors so boringly, but now they are so intoxicated—this person spread such rumors, clearly for today, to use these to weave traps , first shot and killed the little minister, and then framed the princess and the Duke of Zhen. As for the rebellion, he only shot three rounds of arrows. It can be seen that he never expected to assassinate His Majesty today. The purpose of the people behind the scenes is the Duke of Zhen and the government. That's all for the Marquis of Wu'an!"

When Emperor Zhang Wu heard it, he seemed to feel that there was some truth, and the expression on his face obviously changed—thinking about Mu Xianyi's reaction just now, it didn't look like a fake, and Ling Xuetang's action of stepping forward to protect Mu Xianyi was even more difficult to conceal Shen, such a young couple is indeed not what the servant said.

He was about to ask the servant again when he heard a voice say:

"However, Your Majesty, the princess has admitted that she has gone to the lower palace, isn't she admitting that she has an affair with Mr. Jiang?"

Mu Xianyi and the others followed the prestige and saw Sheng Jin'an standing not far away, with a gloomy and cold light in his eyes, and said leisurely:

"The princess's Luopa and the Jiang family's arrows are physical evidence, and this servant is human evidence. The physical evidence is all there, isn't it enough to explain everything?"

Mu Xianyi raised his lips, and the sharpness in his eyes brought some sarcasm: "Dare to ask, when will I admit that I have an affair with Jiang Guangxi? I ​​just admit that I sent Luan Jing to the lower palace!"

He said, turned his head to look at Luan Jing, and asked: "Luan Jing, tell me, where did I send you to the lower palace?"

Hearing this, Luan Jing's face showed three points of grievance, and Liu Mei frowned: "The princess sent me to look for Young Master Loufu yesterday."

Mu Xianyi immediately said mockingly: "I'm afraid some people will say that I have an affair with Yuzhang again?"

Lou Yuzhang, whose name was called, stood up immediately, blushed and called out to Qu: "Your Majesty, I have no affair with the princess! 'She' made some snacks yesterday, and sent someone to give it to the minister and the princess." Father eat!"

Concubine Chen's elder brother and Lou Yuzhang's father, Lou Xiao, stepped forward immediately, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, the princess did indeed send a box of snacks yesterday, and I can testify to that."

"Lou Qing and Lord Lou Er are relatives of the princess, so they can't be regarded as witnesses, right?" Pei Xuandao said with a smile, his eyes were full of sinister calculations, and he turned to propose to the emperor, "Your Majesty, why don't the princess' servants Take the maid down and torture him severely, and then search the residence of Jiang's father and son, and we will see the truth."

"Your Majesty opposes it!" Duke Ling Jiyuan immediately stood up and saluted, "This matter involves the reputation of the princess, and even more so, the innocence of the Marquis of Wu'an. It cannot be decided hastily in the form of torture!"

"Otherwise, what does Duke Zhen think?" Pei Xuandao asked with a smile, "Could it be that Duke Zhen thinks that the crime of killing the king can be easily exposed with just a few words of excuse?"

Ling Jiyuan was about to say more when he heard a female voice leisurely:

"Your Majesty, I can testify for Princess Jincheng."

I saw Yingjieyu Pingting coming. She was wearing a round-neck and narrow-sleeve double-breasted Hu suit very similar to Mu Xianyi, except that hers was light blue, which looked very dusty and alienated. She had a pair of beautiful and heroic faces. With indifference in her eyes, even though everyone was looking at her, she didn't seem to care at all, she just walked up to Emperor Zhang Wu and bowed profusely:

"The concubine can testify."

Seeing that it was her, Emperor Zhang Wu softened his tone three points, and asked, "How does Concubine Ai testify?"

Ying Jieyu took a look at Mu Xianyi, still calm, and said calmly: "Yesterday before your majesty returned to the palace, my concubine met the princess in the small garden. The son-in-law embroidered a purse and asked the concubine if there were any patterns for reference. The concubine gave her the picture of "Swallows Returning to the Liang" that she liked. Let me ask, if the princess really does not get along with the son-in-law and wants to have an affair with Lord Jiang Xiaohou, what will she do? How can you ask a concubine such a question?"

Ying Jieyu Ning Xiangwu's words once again proved the relationship between Mu Xianyi and Ling Xuetang. After hearing the words, Emperor Zhang Wu fell into deep thought again.
