Emperor Ning glanced towards Hua Jing, his eyes full of coldness, "I asked you to come to the flower viewing banquet. You said that you were not in good health and just waited in the palace. However, you were all over the place just now when you came to the palace.
I can’t find you, where have you been?”
Hua Jing couldn't help but wince under Emperor Ning's gaze, and her face turned a little pale, "My lord, my lord, I saw that the flowers in the palace were blooming well, so I went to look at the flowers for a while."
"Oh? In which courtyard did you see the flowers?" Emperor Ning looked away, but his voice gradually became colder as he asked.
Hua Jing gritted his teeth and whispered, "Butterfly Garden."
"Really?" Emperor Ning asked softly, then raised his voice and said, "Come here, bring the maids and guards from Butterfly Garden."
Hua Jing lowered her head and stood there blankly, seeming a little at a loss. Emperor Ning glanced at her, then turned to the Dali Temple Qing and said, "Is there anything else you want to ask?"
The Minister of Dali Temple has been working for Emperor Ning for many years, and he is still somewhat familiar with Emperor Ning. Just now he saw Emperor Ning's attitude towards Hua Jing, and he seemed to be very disappointed. Now that he has some confidence in his heart, he can speak more forcefully.
Many, "Princess Huajing, I would like to ask you. Just now, the attendants outside Jinglan Garden identified you and said that you have ever entered this courtyard?"
Hua Jing gritted his teeth, shook his head and said, "This courtyard is where my princess usually rests, but the Japanese princess has never entered it before. I wonder who said that she saw my princess?"
A man dressed like a chamberlain came out and said timidly, "It's a slave. It's just that the slave clearly saw the princess entering the courtyard. Many people saw it, but just now the princess didn't seem to be wearing this kind of clothes. She was wearing the appropriate clothes."
It's a pink dress.
"Yes, the hem of the skirt is embroidered with peach blossoms. I like embroidery, and I am most impressed by the pattern and style of the clothes." A person who looked like a maid also said softly.
The Minister of Dali Temple looked at the clothes on Hua Jing's body. Hua Jing was clearly wearing a water-blue dress. Hua Jing also quickly raised his eyes and said to the Minister of Dali Temple, "Sir, I must be these servants."
I made a mistake, this princess is not wearing pink clothes. If these servants didn’t see it wrong, then someone must have pretended to be my princess and wanted to confuse your sight. Please tell me.”
The Minister of Dali Temple nodded, "I will definitely get to the bottom of this matter." After saying that, he raised his head and looked at the kneeling servant, "Besides the clothes, what else do you remember?"
Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads, but one of the maids, who looked honest and honest, raised her eyes and said, "Sir, I suddenly remembered something that may be helpful to you. Just now, I saw the woman pretending to be a princess entering.
Before leaving the yard, I stood at the gate of the yard for a while, because the roses at the gate were in bloom, and she seemed to be attracted by the flowers. The woman stretched out her hand to touch the roses, but she seemed to be pricked by a thorn. The slave looked at
It must have been severe, because the maid next to the woman took a veil and bandaged the woman. The slave girl discovered that the maid serving the woman looked somewhat similar to the aunt behind the princess, but
The princess's clothes are different from that of the girl. Maybe the maid is pretending to be her, but you can ask someone to search the aunt's body to see if she has the scarf, so that she can clear her grievances."
The maid was actually very smart. After listening to Hua Jing's words, she automatically changed into a woman pretending to be a princess, but her eyes fell on the maid behind Hua Jing. She even asked her to search her body so that she could help clean up Tsinghua University.
The suspicion of the mirror.
Yun Shang lowered her head, picked up the brocade handkerchief in her sleeve and covered her mouth, coughed slightly, and covered the smile that almost revealed her emotions at the corner of her mouth.
Yun Shang didn't miss it, Hua Jing's face suddenly changed color. Not only Yun Shang didn't miss it, but many people also saw it.
Emperor Ning nodded, "In that case, let's search that maid's body. Someone is here..."
The one who searched the body was the nanny who was waiting at Emperor Ning's side. After just a few searches, she found a pink handkerchief from the maid. It was made of fine silk. It looked like it was used by Hua Jing, but the personal maid kept it for her.
Just put it on.
Grandma unfolded the brocade handkerchief, and everyone saw that there was an obvious blood stain on the corner of the handkerchief.
Emperor Ning raised his eyes and looked at Hua Jing, his face became colder and colder, "What's going on with this brocade handkerchief?"
Hua Jing felt a little dizzy. She put her hands in her sleeves. After a while, she said, "Father, my son is indeed injured, but it was not stabbed by a rose flower. I'm afraid the rose flower cannot prick such a big thing."
Come open." After saying that, he stretched out his hand, and there was a small hole in the palm of his hand, but it was much bigger than the thorns of the rose flower.
Hua Jing looked at the wound in his hand and said softly, "This injury occurred when I was admiring flowers. I was a little tired, so I took a rest in the pavilion. When I was resting, I took off the hairpin from my hair to play with it. None of my children wanted to play with it.
Carefully, the hairpin pierced the palm of his hand, so Yayun took the embroidered handkerchief and gave it to Erchen to cover the wound, but the wound was deeper, it had just healed, and now it started to bleed again."
Yun Shang couldn't help but want to laugh again. Hua Jing was indeed cruel, and could even do it to herself. Yun Shang had learned some medical skills when she was with Xiao Yuanshan before, and she knew it with just one look.
, the wound in Hua Jing's hand was obviously stabbed just now, and the attack was not gentle. Yun Shang sighed, but Hua Jing was just trying to gain sympathy, but he didn't expect that going too far would not be enough. There was clearly only a little blood on the brocade handkerchief.
, and looking at the injury in Hua Jing's hand, it might have dyed the thin brocade handkerchief bright red.
Yun Shang's eyes showed a hint of worry appropriately. She walked to Hua Jing and looked at the wound and said, "Ah, this wound is really not shallow. Sister Huang, does it hurt?"
Hua Jing clearly saw the schadenfreude in Yun Shang's eyes, and snorted coldly, "It doesn't matter, it's just a minor injury."
Hearing this, Yun Shang took the pink brocade handkerchief that the nanny was still holding and pressed it on the wound, "Although it's just a small wound, we can't let it bleed. Father, it's better not to interrogate it yet."
, let the imperial doctor bring some medicine to the imperial sister."
Yun Shang said, then turned back to look at the brocade handkerchief in her hand. Sure enough, she saw that the brocade handkerchief was stained red with blood. Yun Shang raised her eyebrows slightly. She knew that when she saw the brocade handkerchief just now, she discovered that this
It is obviously made of silk, which is very breathable and thin, and it is also very elegant in the hand. However, the worst thing about this kind of veil is that it does not absorb sweat. However, people like Huajing, with their noble status,
, I am afraid there is always a supply of ice cubes in the house, and there are people fanning when I go out, so whether the handkerchief is easy to use does not seem to be that important.
Hua Jing's eyes were startled, and she also saw some clues. She hurriedly wanted to take back her hand, but it was already over. She only saw Yun Shang holding the brocade handkerchief and unfolding it. The pink handkerchief just now was dyed.
A large area of bright red.
"What's going on? Why is there so much blood? Why is the handkerchief stained red? Why don't you call the imperial doctor soon?" Yun Shang didn't give Hua Jing a chance to speak, and shouted hurriedly.
Just now Cangjue Qingsu was injured, and the imperial doctor should be at the side. Yun Shang shouted and walked out of the room quickly.
"I am here to see you, Your Majesty."
Emperor Ning nodded and said to the imperial doctor, "Forgive me. Go and see if the injury on Princess Hua Jing's hand is severe."
The imperial doctor responded and walked to Hua Jing, "Princess, I'm so rude, do you want me to show you the injury on your hand?"
Seeing everyone watching, Hua Jing knew that he would definitely not be able to pass this test. He quickly thought of countermeasures, and he hated Yun Shang even more deeply.
The imperial doctor examined it carefully and then said, "Princess, she must have been injured by a sharp object. Although the wound is not big, it is a bit deep, but it only hurts a little, so it doesn't matter. Weichen will give you an ointment to apply."
"
Yun Shang unfolded the handkerchief and said to the imperial doctor, "You said the emperor's injury is fine, but why is there so much blood? The handkerchief is stained red..."
The imperial doctor knew that the woman in front of him was Princess Huiguo, whom Emperor Ning was now very fond of, so he did not dare to neglect it. He glanced at the handkerchief in her hand and then said with a clear smile, "Princess, Weichen is not very familiar with this fabric.
I just vaguely looked at the appearance of this handkerchief, it should be a handkerchief made of silk, right? Silk handkerchiefs are thin and easy to get infected, so they look a little scary, but in fact they are not that serious."
Yun Shang nodded, said "Oh", and stepped back to where he was. He only smiled awkwardly and said, "Oh, it's okay, it's okay. Mr. Xing, let's continue with the case."
But her hand quickly pushed the brocade handkerchief into the nanny's hand. Everyone was a little confused when they saw Yun Shang's actions. After a while, they remembered that when the maid took it out just now, there was only a speck of blood on the brocade handkerchief.
Although it was clearly visible, it was not so scary.
However, Princess Hua Jing said that the wound on her hand was stabbed before, and the wound just started to bleed again. The bleeding from the treated wound was so severe, let alone the wound that had just been stabbed.
I'm afraid that Princess Huiguo thought of this. Because of the deep love between sisters, she was afraid of causing trouble to Princess Hua Jing, so she pretended that she didn't know anything.
Everyone looked at Yun Shang with more appreciation. Compared with Hua Jing who lied frequently, Yun Shang who defended his imperial sister was more kind-hearted.
"Your Majesty..." A powerful voice came. Everyone followed the voice and saw a man in military uniform walking in hurriedly. "Reporting to Your Majesty, my subordinates found an injured person behind a rockery in the backyard.
The man, judging by his appearance, must be a servant from someone’s family. He was just injured a little bit. He just woke up and kept asking to see the emperor, saying that he wanted to redress his son’s grievances..."
As soon as these words came out, it was like thunder. Yun Shang clearly saw that Hua Jing's face suddenly turned pale, and Wen Qingzhu's back bent a little more while he was kneeling on the ground. Yun Shang touched the jade pendant around his waist, and his eyes flashed.
After a touch of smile, here comes...
Hua Jing, Hua Jing, how does this amulet taste?
Emperor Ning raised his voice and said, "Bring it up."
Then a few soldiers-looking men carried a man stained with blood into the courtyard. The man was wearing a blue-gray servant uniform, his face was green, he might be in severe pain, and his face was covered with sweat.
He led the soldiers to let go of the boy, and he lay down on the ground with some difficulty and said, "I pay homage to the emperor. I am the school boy of Mr. Wen Qingzhu. I have something to report to the emperor. Your Majesty, my son stabbed the third prince of Yelang Kingdom.
There is another hidden reason behind this matter, please make it clear to the emperor..."
Before he finished speaking, Wen Qingzhu, who had been kneeling on the ground, suddenly jumped up and rushed towards the book boy. There was a faint murderous intent in his eyes, but before he could rush in front of the book boy, he was already beaten.
The man dressed as a soldier standing next to the book boy stopped him.
The bookboy raised his eyes and looked at Wen Qingzhu, with a few tears falling in his eyes, "Master, I know you are doing it for the good of the Wen family, but Master, you are the only son in the Wen family, if something happens to you, what will you do to the Wen family?"
What to do? You have always taught me how to distinguish right from wrong. Master, why are you confused this time?"
"You said there is a secret behind this matter, but tell me, what is the secret?" Emperor Ning's voice was calm, making it difficult to distinguish between joy and anger, but Yun Shang knew that his anger was almost uncontrollable.
Already.
The scholar boy felt a little weak and coughed for a long time before he said, "Reporting to the emperor, the young master has admired Princess Huajing since he was a child. However, the young master knows his identity and does not dare to dream about it. Today, the young master was walking in the garden and saw Princess Huajing.
The princess seemed a little unhappy. She was stabbed in the hand while admiring the rose flowers. The young master was worried and followed him. But when he walked to the door of the yard, he was a little hesitant. He was afraid of ruining the princess' reputation, so he just hesitated.
, but suddenly heard the exclamation of Her Royal Highness the Princess. The young master was afraid that something might happen to the princess, so he rushed in in a hurry, but unexpectedly, he saw..."
The boy coughed a few more times and coughed up some blood. After a while, he said again, "I saw Princess Huajing and the third prince of Yelang Kingdom... they were lying on the ground in the yard. The third prince of Yelang Kingdom... had... already...
The princess's skirt was lifted up, even her pants were exposed... The young master admired the princess. Seeing this, he thought that the third prince of Yelang Kingdom had forced the princess, so he rushed over. The third prince of Yelang Kingdom was very skilled in martial arts, so he pulled out his dagger and pointed at it.
The young master stabbed him, and the servant hurriedly stood in front of the young master. The dagger stabbed the servant, but the young master seemed to be going crazy. He pulled out the dagger and stabbed towards the third prince of Yelang Kingdom. The third prince of Yelang Kingdom was unprepared for a moment.
, just got stabbed.”
Hua Jing seemed to have no response, and his body was shaky. He glared at the book boy hatefully, as if he wanted to cut him into pieces, but because there were so many people here, he didn't dare to really do it, so he could only die.
Muji stood there, accepting all kinds of looks from everyone.
"When Princess Huajing saw this situation, she seemed to be frightened and screamed. That scream would definitely attract the guards, so the third prince of Yelang Kingdom had the slave find a secluded place and throw it away. The slave finally remembered
, Princess Hua Jing seemed to be talking to the young master, and the servant didn’t know what Princess Hua Jing said. The servant only remembered that the man threw the servant behind the rockery. The servant held his breath and lied to him, but he heard someone saying that the young master had stabbed him.
The third prince of Yelang Kingdom will be beheaded for being injured..." The scholar's voice became lower and lower, and the imperial doctor on the side walked over, took out a medicine bag and pressed it on his wound.
Having roughly understood what happened, everyone present looked at Emperor Ning. Emperor Ning's face was calm, but there seemed to be a storm brewing in his eyes.
"Report! Your Majesty, my subordinates found this set of clothes in a courtyard to the west. I heard from the servants around me that Princess Cai Jing had been there before." The soldier was holding a pink dress.
The delicate peach blossoms embroidered on the table are exactly the same as what the servants confessed earlier.
Emperor Ning suddenly patted the armrest of the chair. Everyone was shocked and quickly knelt down on the ground, "Your Majesty, please calm down."
"Go and bring the third prince of Yelang Kingdom here. I want to ask him why he molested my princess of Ning Kingdom? Could it be that he thinks that Ning Kingdom is kind and easy to bully!"
There was suppressed anger in his voice.
"Your Majesty Ning Guo, I, He Numo, am not convinced. Your Princess Huajing was picked up from the mountains and forests by the prince many months ago and became his favorite. It's just that the prince didn't know she was your princess at that time.
, and, according to your princess, the child she lost some time ago belongs to our prince."
A dissatisfied voice came, and everyone present was shocked. They cursed secretly in their hearts. How could they suddenly know such a shocking thing? If the emperor pursued it, it would be terrible.
But she couldn't help but think to herself that Princess Hua Jing did go to the border a few months ago because her consort went missing at the border and went to look for him. At that time, many people praised Princess Hua Jing. It's just that
, some time ago, there seemed to be some faint messages in the imperial city, it was about Princess Huajing. I heard that she had a miscarriage while hunting, and the child was only three or four months old. Everyone listened in private, but they just kept it secretly in their hearts.
Let me tell you, there are indeed many disputes in the widow's house. Moreover, this widow is still such a noble princess. It is understandable to have a few male favorites in private, but it is a bit too much to have a child.
But I didn't expect that this child would be the child of the third prince of Yelang Kingdom. You know, at that time, Ning Kingdom was at war with Yelang Kingdom. In this way, even if the charge of treason was placed on Princess Huajing, I'm afraid
It makes sense. No wonder she would try every means to hide this matter.
"It's your turn to interrupt when I'm talking? Come on! Pull Henumo down and hit him fifty times," Emperor Ning said angrily.
Everyone lowered their heads quickly, for fear of arousing the emperor's anger, but in their hearts they believed a little more what Henumo's man said.
At this time, the third prince of Yelang Kingdom stepped into the courtyard. Because of his injury, his complexion was not very good. Although his waist was wrapped with a thick gauze and there was still some blood seeping out,
I just saw that his pace was a little slower than usual, but he wasn't too weak.
Hearing Emperor Ning's order to slap his trusted ministers, he just raised his eyebrows slightly and responded, "Your Majesty is right, he should be beaten. Princess Huajing's reputation does not allow him to talk nonsense like this."
