Everyone only heard half of what was said, and looked a little surprised. Yun Shang's eyes fell on Hua Yutong, who was standing quietly aside. There was a bit of coldness in his eyes. After a moment of silence, he smiled softly, and his voice
With some hesitation, he said: "Just for this reason, it is not suitable to say it in front of so many adults..."
Xia Huanyu frowned, then raised his hand and said: "This matter is related to the lives of two important officials in the court. The Crown Princess does not need to worry about it, just say so."
Yun Shang was silent for a moment before speaking: "I don't think it's appropriate to talk about this matter in front of everyone, just because it involves some boudoir affairs between the seventh prince and the seventh princess, but I don't care about it anyway.
We also need to seek the opinions of the Seventh Prince and the Seventh Princess."
Xia Houjing and Hua Yutong looked at each other, and Xia Houjing said calmly: "The Crown Princess does not need to avoid taboos, just say so."
Yun Shang then laughed, nodded and said: "Then let me tell you, everyone knows that the seventh princess is the niece of the Duke of the country, and we have a close relationship with each other. We can be considered as knowing each other.
The seventh princess and the seventh prince have been married for more than half a year. On the surface, they seem to be in harmony with each other, but in fact, the seventh prince is very cold towards the seventh princess in private. In fact, in the past six months and more, the seventh prince has never set foot in the house.
Pass by the Seventh Princess’s room.”
As soon as Yun Shang's words came out, many people in the palace looked embarrassed. They looked at each other and lowered their heads in a hurry.
Hua Yutong's face turned red and she wanted to speak, but because she was in the Tai Chi Hall, she had no choice but to give up.
Yun Shang continued: "The Seventh Princess has complained in front of me several times. Although I am the Crown Princess, I am also a close friend of the Seventh Princess. I naturally fight for the Seventh Princess. I always feel that a good woman like the Seventh Princess is worth it.
People treat each other wholeheartedly. Therefore, I am somewhat dissatisfied with the seventh prince's handling of this matter."
"The last time I expressed my dissatisfaction with the Seventh Prince was yesterday. The reason is because the day before yesterday, I ordered someone to pick some osmanthus flowers to make crystal osmanthus cake. Thinking that the Seventh Princess likes sweets, I ordered someone to send it to the Seventh Prince.
Prince's Mansion. When the people in my house delivered the things, they met the Seventh Prince returning to the house. The Seventh Prince said that he would send the crystal osmanthus cake to the Seventh Princess, and the people in my house gave the things to the Seventh Prince.
But I didn’t expect that the seventh prince didn’t send anything to the seventh princess, but just asked the seventh princess to come to the prince’s mansion. When I heard the seventh princess said it, I thought, since the seventh prince asked the seventh princess to come to the prince’s mansion, then
I definitely didn't forget it, I haven't forgotten it, but I didn't hand over the thing. It was really strange, so I complained a few words in front of the Seventh Princess."
Yun Shang's smile did not diminish, and she raised her head to look at the official who had spoken before: "My lord, do you think that because of these things, I will murder two people and then frame the blame on the Seventh Prince?"
"This..." The official couldn't answer. He hesitated for a long time before he said suddenly, "These are just your one-sided words. Who knows whether what you said is true or false?"
Yun Shang smiled and turned to look at Xia Huanyu: "It's not difficult to know whether this matter is true or false. I didn't want to bring up such a method, just to prove my innocence, but I had to do it.
That’s it.”
"Oh?" Xia Huanyu raised his eyebrows and looked at Yun Shang: "What method?"
Yun Shang bit her lip and was silent for a moment, then said: "It's very simple. I'll order the nuns in the palace to come and check whether the seventh princess is a perfect woman. Then you can know whether what I said is true or false."
As soon as Yun Shang finished speaking, Hua Yutong was the first to turn pale.
Yun Shang looked at Hua Yutong with a bit of indifference in her eyes, but she happened to see Hua Yutong looking over in shock. As soon as he met Yun Shang's eyes, he quickly moved away.
Yun Shang's hand gently rubbed the jade pendant around her waist, feeling a little depressed in her heart. If Hua Yutong hadn't betrayed her, she would not have pushed Hua Yutong out. She has never been a kind person, and she has always been kind to people who treat her sincerely.
.
Xia Houjing looked at Yun Shang, his eyes were dark, but his expression did not change at all, and he couldn't tell what he was thinking.
"Liu Wen'an, take the seventh princess to the side hall and find a nun to check her carefully." Xia Huanyu had already spoken.
There were whispers from behind, but Yun Shang just lowered her head and pretended not to hear. Liu Wen'an's voice came from behind: "Seventh Princess, please."
Yun Shang heard Hua Yutong's breathing gradually getting heavier, but her heart was as cold as ice.
She certainly knew how the old ladies in the White House checked whether a woman was perfect, but when Hua Yutong walked into the Tai Chi Hall and said that she was dissatisfied with the Seventh Prince and blamed the Seventh Prince for murder, the two of them
The friendship between them has been shattered.
When Hua Yutong chose to stand beside the Seventh Prince, he had already become her enemy. She, Ning Yunshang, would never be merciful to her enemies.
Not long after, Hua Yutong followed Liu Wen'an back to the palace. Yun Shang looked at Hua Yutong, but saw that her face was extremely pale, her eyes were empty, there was a faint trace of blood, and her body was also pale.
Trembling slightly.
Yun Shang turned away and looked at the golden dragon carved on the pillars in the palace, her eyes dimmed a bit.
"Your Majesty, as the Crown Princess said, the Seventh Princess is still perfect." Liu Wen'an's voice sounded in the palace, flat and without any emotion.
Whispers arose again in the palace. Xia Huanyu's eyes swept over everyone, and finally landed on Xia Houjing: "Seventh Prince, what else do you have to say?"
Xia Houjing was silent for a moment, without speaking, but his expression was indifferent.
Yun Shang always felt that he must have some trump cards that he had not yet brought out, and he was slightly worried in his heart. He turned his eyes and looked at Luo Qingyan aside. Luo Qingyan seemed to have noticed Yun Shang's gaze, and raised his eyes towards
Yun Shang raised the corner of her mouth and smiled, looking very calm.
Yun Shang felt relieved all of a sudden, thinking that there was nothing in the world that Luo Qingyan couldn't handle. Now that she was here, she just had to watch this drama with peace of mind.
Xia Huanyu frowned slightly when he saw that Xia Houjing had not spoken for a long time. He raised his eyes and said: "Those who murder must be killed according to the law. Although you are a prince, you will be named a prince when you become an adult. However, the prince broke the law and
All the people are guilty..."
Xia Houjing curled up the corners of his mouth and smiled with a bit of sarcasm.
Just at this moment, the voice of the chamberlain suddenly came from outside: "Shang Shu of the Ministry of Punishment, Wang Yuanjun wishes to see you."
Yun Shang frowned slightly. Since Li Qianmo became the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, although the Minister of the Ministry of Justice has been in his position, he has almost completely delegated power to Li Qianmo. He only goes to the Ministry of Justice to sit for a few hours every day. All official matters of the Ministry of Justice are
Li Qianmo was dealing with it. At that time, Yun Shang thought that Wang Yuanjun was getting older and had vague thoughts of promoting Li Qianmo and then resigning.
However, at this time, why did the Minister of Punishment suddenly appear?
Yun Shang turned her eyes to Xia Houjing who was standing aside, and saw that the smile on the corner of Xia Houjing's mouth became even wider. She also had a guess in her heart that this Wang Yuanjun was probably Xia Houjing's man.
The previous delegation of power was probably also to avoid attracting attention and to facilitate the investigation of Li Qianmo.
I just don’t know what kind of changes will happen if Wang Yuanjun suddenly appears.
Xia Huanyu also frowned slightly: "Pass."
"The Minister of Punishment, Wang Yuanjun, is here to see you..." After the summons from the chamberlain, Yun Shang turned around and looked at the door of the palace, and saw a man with gray hair and beard walking in. Perhaps it was because he was too old to walk.
, his steps staggered slightly. After he walked to the hall and stood still, he was still breathing heavily.
Xia Huanyu's eyes fell on Wang Yuanjun, and then he said slowly: "I remember, Wang Aiqing took leave today due to illness. I don't know why she came here in a hurry even though she was sick?"
There was some obvious displeasure in Xia Huanyu's words, but Wang Yuanjun seemed completely unaware. He quickly knelt down and saluted, and then said in a deep voice: "Wei Chen is indeed on leave today, but someone from the Criminal Department came here earlier.
Report, saying that an evidence was found from the home of the deceased Qin Tianjian Lord Wei. They were supposed to report to Lord Li, the Minister of Punishment, Li Qianmo, but Lord Li was in the palace, so they could not enter the palace, so they had to go to Wei Chen's home.
Come and inform Wei Chen."
"Physical evidence?" Xia Huanyu looked at Wang Yuanjun indifferently, "I wonder what kind of physical evidence it is?"
When Wang Yuanjun heard this, he quickly took out a memorial from his sleeve and said, "This thing was found in the study room of Mr. Wei's house. It was calculated by Mr. Wei's observation of the sky a few days ago. The original intention was to present it.
With your majesty, I didn’t want Mr. Wei to encounter this difficulty..."
"Send it up." Xia Huanyu said loudly.
Liu Wen'an quickly walked to Wang Yuanjun, took the memorial, walked slowly to the dragon chair, and handed the memorial over.
Xia Huanyu took it, opened it and looked at it, then frowned and looked at it a bit. After a while, he handed the memorial back to Liu Wen'an: "Read it."
"The light of the Purple Micro Star is getting weaker, and I'm afraid that Your Majesty may be damaged. What affects the light of the Emperor Star is a new star in the south. The star was discovered in May last year. Its light is getting fuller, and it has the potential to surpass the light of the Emperor Star."
Hearing this, all the officials in the palace began to whisper again.
Yun Shang faintly heard the whispers, the prince...
Yun Shang looked at Xia Houjing, who was still looking calm, and smiled coldly. It turned out that he was here.
Since ancient times, what emperors fear most is the instability of the throne, even if the person threatening him is his own son. Xia Houjing probably knew this very well and did it deliberately.
"Wei Chen asked Mr. Wei's wife. Mrs. Wei said that Mr. Wei had presented this memorial twice, but for some reason, it did not attract His Majesty's attention. He watched the rising star shine brighter and brighter in the past few days.
, so he quickly wrote another letter, but something happened before he could submit it." Wang Yuanjun said softly.
"I submitted it twice, but why have I never seen it?" Xia Huanyu's hand tightly grasped the armrest of the dragon chair, and he squinted his eyes slightly, and the scar on his face was also faintly stained.
