When it was time to hold the lamp, Shen Huan came to Xichen's side. Xichen tiredly supported his forehead with his hands, while Xiao Shizi stood aside and waited on him.
Mr. An was badly kicked by Xichen and is now recovering from his injuries. He is getting older. Once his injuries are healed, he can leave the palace to take care of his old age.
Therefore, Xiao Shizi will succeed Mr. An as the internal manager around Xichen, which is undoubtedly good news for Shen Huan.
Looking at each other with Xiao Shizi, Shen Huan walked behind Xichen, pressed his temples with both hands, and rubbed them gently.
Xichen closed her eyes and enjoyed it for a while, then put her hands on her tender breasts, raised her head and smiled, but there was no trace of bitterness in her smile.
"The emperor has something on his mind?" Shen Huan asked knowingly. At this time, Pei Zhaoyi should have told him about it.
Xichen pulled her to his side, looked at her and said, "I have a public case here. I don't know how to decide. This matter concerns one of your friends."
Shen Wen asked bluntly: "What the emperor is talking about is the affair between Hua Zhi and Xiu He?"
Xichen asked hurriedly: "You already know?"
Shen Huan nodded and said: "Yes, sister Xianya came to see me in the afternoon, and then I went to ask Xiuhe."
Xichen's expression turned pale and he asked, "What did he say?"
Shen Huan said slowly: "On the night when the emperor left the capital, he clearly went to Jiu Ge's palace to play chess. How could he meet Hua Zhi and do something casual?" After a pause, she continued: "Just now. I also asked Brother Ninth and he confirmed this."
Xichen looked at her deeply. She met Xichen's eyes fearlessly and said steadily: "If the emperor doesn't believe it, you can ask the Ninth Prince to come. The Emperor will definitely believe what the Ninth Prince said."
Xichen smiled slightly, relaxed his brows, and said: "It doesn't seem to be a big deal. Since Ninth Brother has come forward, it is naturally a fictitious thing!" He turned around and said sternly to Xiao Shizi: "Go and pass on my order. Pang Guiren was innocently victimized. Let her go back and then bring the palace maid who framed her to me. I want to see who gave her such courage to frame my concubines!"
Xiao Shizi hurriedly went to receive the order. Shen Huan breathed a sigh of relief at Xiao Shizi's back. Unexpectedly, his hands tightened and he was pulled into Xichen's arms. When he turned around, he looked into his cold eyes. He clamped hard. He held his chin and said with a half-smile: "Huanwen, now you are getting more and more involved in the affairs of my harem. Even my ninth brother has been dragged into the water by you."
Shen Huan pretended to be helpless and said: "If the emperor really doesn't believe me, he can tell the Ninth Prince to come to confront him."
Xichen exerted force on his hands and heard her snort, and he snorted coldly: "Since you have already gone to see your ninth brother, and you call him again, naturally what you say will be what he will say too!"
Shen Huan held back the pain and suddenly smiled and said: "Huan Huan didn't know that she had such a great charm!"
Xichen seemed to crush her into pieces, and her smile fell into his eyes, which was the poison that charmed all living beings. He sucked it obsessively, not caring that if the poison entered his heart, he would be doomed and said in a low voice: "You don't know? You actually Don’t you know?” He aimed at her bright red lips and wanted to bite them, but in the end he just gave her a light peck.
Shen Huan whispered: "You hurt me"
As soon as Xichen let her go, Xiao Shizi came with the palace maid.
The palace maid was lying on the ground shivering, Xichen said to Shen Huan: "You come and ask."
Shen Wen did not refuse, walked up to the palace maid, and said coldly: "Are you afraid?"
The palace maid hurriedly shook her head: "I'm not afraid, slave."
"Then why are you shaking?" Shen Han bent down and asked, "What's your name?"
"Slave Huan'er..."
"Huan'er, let me ask you, did you really see Mr. Pang enter the proton facility that night?" Shen Huan asked softly.
"Yes... I really saw Pang Gui and a man, Prince Haidong, in the garden..."
"You're lying!" Shen Huan suddenly interrupted her sharply, "Prince Haidong was not in the proton facility at all that night. Could it be that you were blinded?"
Huan'er was almost paralyzed by her fright, but she still managed to hold on and said, "This... this... maybe it's another man..."
"Will it be his bodyguard?"
"Yes, yes, they might be the two guards of Prince Haidong!" Huan'er followed Shen Huan's words.
Shen Wen sneered and said: "Didn't you say that Yu Linglong was a love token given by Pang Guiren to Prince Haidong? Then it should be Xiu He who has an affair with her. How did she become his bodyguard? Woolen cloth?"
"this……"
"Say quickly! Who instigated you to frame Pang Guiren!"
"Slave... I don't know what Master Shang Yi means?"
"Aren't you going to tell me? It doesn't matter. Gong Zhengsi has at least two hundred punishments to make you tell the truth." He turned to Xichen and said, "Your Majesty, it seems that Gong Zhengsi is going to be alarmed."
Huan'er screamed in fear: "No! I don't want to go to Gong Zhengsi! Anyone who goes will not come out alive! If I don't go, I will die if I go!"
Shen Huan said coldly: "It's not death, it's a life worse than death! If you don't want a life worse than death, tell me who instigated it."
Huan'er was stunned for a moment, then shook her head and cried: "I can't say, I can't say..."
Xichen was already very impatient and said angrily: "Take her to Gong Zhengsi!"
Just as the two eunuchs were about to step forward, Huan'er shouted: "I'm not going!" Suddenly his mouth was bleeding and he fell to the side.
Xiao Shizi stepped forward to take a look and said: "Your Majesty, she bit her tongue and committed suicide."
Xichen waved his hand in disgust and asked people to carry him down. When he saw Shen Huan standing there, he hugged her to his chest and comforted her: "It's none of your business. It's her fault."
Shen Huan was stunned for a long time and muttered: "She died too quickly."
Since Huan'er is dead, there is no evidence of death, but the painting is indeed an unjust accusation. Then it will take a while to find out the real culprit behind the scenes.
