She patted the little palace lady with lowered eyebrows, pointed at the Buddha statue and asked in a pretentious manner, "What is this?"
The little palace lady raised her eyelids and said, "Miss, that is the birthday gift from the prince to the queen mother."
Birthday gift? That Buddha statue is a birthday gift from Jun Muxi to the Queen Mother...
No, this birthday gift is definitely not the one she saw!
Could it be that... someone is plotting against Jun Muxi?
Thinking of this, Qiao Qingqing looked around anxiously to look for Jun Muxi, but where was his shadow anywhere near the case not far away?
"This article will be scattered without me!"
Qiao Qingqing cursed to herself, and as soon as she turned around, the tip of her nose hit a solid chest.
"Who doesn't have eyes? He bumped into this lady!"
Qiao Qingqing covered her nose and raised her eyes angrily. What caught her eye was Jun Muxi's handsome face that was so handsome that no one could see her.
Ever since, the girl who was aggressive one second, turned into a porcelain charmer the next moment:
"My nose is broken and I can't marry anymore. What do you think I should do?"
Jun Muxi ignored it and just frowned slightly, "Where did you go just now?"
Huh? Could it be that...he heard her worries and thought he was being plotted, so he was looking for her?
Thinking of this, Qiao Qingqing immediately shook her shoulders, pursed her lips and said coquettishly:
"Are you worried about me? Man, I just like the way you are duplicitous. You say no, but your body is honest..."
Jun Muxi didn't wait for her to finish speaking and was about to leave.
Qiao Qingqing quickly grabbed his black sleeve.
Jun Muxi turned around impatiently and saw the little girl blinking her big eyes and looking at him silently. Her cold lips uttered two words, "Let go."
"I have something to tell you. If you don't listen, you will regret it for the rest of your life." Qiao Qingqing grinned in a mysterious manner.
"explain."
Jun Muxi glanced around. At this time, everyone's attention was on the pair of beautiful ladies in the palace who were thanking each other. No one paid attention to this side.
Qiao Qingqing took a step forward and stood on tiptoes, "Kiss me and I'll tell you."
Jun Muxi had quick eyes and quick hands. He slapped the girl's palm-sized face with his big palm and easily pushed her pretty face away.
At this time, the thanksgiving ceremony in the palace was coming to an end. The palace attendants carrying the Buddha statues saw this and began to walk towards the palace. Seeing this, Qiao Qingqing finally stopped being pretentious:
"That Buddha statue has been stolen."
Jun Muxi felt a chill all over his body, "How do you know?"
"Where do you think I went just now?" Qiao Qingqing raised her lips proudly, "If nothing goes wrong, there will be news that an assassin has entered the palace later."
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a report not far away, "Your Majesty, there are assassins!"
The sound of footsteps echoed around, and in less than a quarter of an hour, the number of guards in the palace more than doubled.
Jun Muxi finally realized the seriousness of the problem. He lowered his eyes and narrowed his eyes dangerously:
"Qiao San, what tricks are you playing again?"
"How can I do that?"
Qiao Qingqing raised her chin and pointed to the Buddha statue in the center of the hall, "I just saw someone moving away the Buddha statue you gave to the Queen Mother. If you don't believe it, check it later when the red cloth is lifted.
The Buddha statue was bitten by me."
"...Where did you bite?" Jun Muxi finally couldn't hold back and his face darkened.
"Big earlobes," Qiao Qingqing said with an innocent face, "They are made of pure gold, and there are teeth marks when you bite them!"
Jun Muxi was so angry that he laughed!
Just as he was about to start scolding, he heard the sound of a sword penetrating into his bones and blood, which hit his eardrums. Then, the screams of everyone came from the hall.
"Escort!"
Qiao Qingqing tilted her head to take a look, but before her eyes could pass Jun Muxi's body, he reached out and pulled her into his arms.
The tip of the sword whizzed past her ear, and Qiao Qingqing glanced at a cold sharp blade flying past her face and sinking firmly into the eyebrows of the little Gong'e beside her!
The little Gong'e's eyes widened and she fell to the ground, losing her breath in an instant.
Qiao Qingqing suddenly lost her voice, her legs went weak, and she let Jun Muxi roll around on the ground several times, her ears becoming deaf.
In a daze, her eyes suddenly met the prince's. Due to her body's instinct, she muttered regardless, "Brother Prince..."
What a coincidence, when this worried voice came out, Jun Muxi was supporting the ground with one hand and protecting the back of her head with the other, his face very close at hand!
So, Qiao Qingqing just stared at his handsome face as sharp as a knife, shrouded in coldness inch by inch.
"System, don't be too ridiculous!" Qiao Qingqing shouted in her heart, "Did he hear it?"
【I heard.】
Qiao Qingqing wanted to die!
In the arms of a man, calling another man gie gie (brother), this kind of provocation is probably the only one in the world, right?
Sure enough, Jun Muxi sneered and said contemptuously, "You are quite infatuated."
"I...I can't control it! I..."
She wanted to explain, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she realized that she couldn't tell anything about the story setting and system.
It can be said that if a mute eats Coptis chinensis, he cannot express the pain.
"Since you can't control your heart, why do you need to act affectionate with me?" Jun Muxi's lips became more sarcastic.
"What do you have to do to trust me?"
"Qiao San, you are a liar. I don't believe a word of what you say, and I will never believe it in this life!"
Looking at Jun Muxi's determined expression, Qiao Qingqing wanted to cry but had no tears.
She finally realized the importance of popularity, and just as she was about to continue her quibbles, she heard a majestic order rang out in the noise:
"Jun Muxi, you are so brave!"
Qiao Qingqing blinked, and the palace not far away had returned to order. Jun Sumo was holding Qiao Lianyi and whispering something to comfort her, while the emperor on the high platform looked ashen!
The Buddha statue stood safely in the center of the hall, watching this farce with compassion.
Qiao Qingqing suddenly understood that someone had installed a mechanism in the fake Buddha statue, with the purpose of giving Jun Muxi the serious crime of regicide!
And the purpose behind this is undoubtedly the military power in his hands.
Because he had just returned, the fake account book issue was solved, so the emperor took further action, which caused the plot to deviate from the planned direction.
Jun Muxi took out his palm from the back of Qiao Qingqing's head and secretly clenched his iron fist.
"Remember, I bit off the ear of your Buddha statue."
Qiao Qingqing reminded her in a low voice, but Jun Muxi ignored her.
He stood up, strode to the center of the hall, and knelt down facing the high platform.
"Jun Muxi, do you dare to kill the king?" The emperor's lips trembled and he slapped his palms heavily on the armrest.
"My brother is unjust." Jun Muxi retorted, but his back was straight.
Qiao Qingqing walked quietly to the side and blinked at Jun Muxi anxiously, but even though her eyes were filled with tears, Jun Muxi didn't say another word.
He doesn't believe her!
Qiao Qingqing was anxious. When Qiao Lianyi saw this, she whispered with concern, "Third sister, what's wrong with your eyes?"
Qiao Qingqing was just about to say, "Don't make trouble," when the emperor on the high platform immediately said:
"Come here, force the prisoner into Yanwei Mansion..."
"Wait!" Qiao Qingqing shook off Qiao Lianyi's pull, stepped forward and knelt down beside Jun Muxi.
"She...what does she want to do?"
Qiao Xiaoxiao snuggled next to the prince, her little face turned pale in an instant.
Qiao Qingqing sneered in her heart, and she was right. This move of hers was obviously an enemy of the Tian family. If she was convicted, wouldn't it affect the entire Prime Minister's Palace?
