Xuanyuan Yanran snorted coldly, "You had a conflict with me before and deliberately pushed me. If it weren't for you, who else would have dared to be so bold and let him assassinate me?"
"oh!"
Ling Xuewei showed an expression of sudden realization.
"That is to say, the princess thinks that I ordered the escort to assassinate you. It is all the princess's own conjecture and there is no actual evidence, right?"
"Who else could this...besides you? Besides, this is your guard, not anyone else's! Who else can order him except you?" Xuanyuan Yanran was anxious.
"The princess is so smart, and my little girl is so smart."
Ling Xuewei clapped her hands a few times without sincerity.
"I have never heard of this kind of reasoning logic. If I go by what the princess said, can I also guess that the princess is uniting with the palace people around her to deliberately frame Yifeng? In order to eliminate the princess?"
"You're talking nonsense! I didn't!!" Xuanyuan Yanran didn't expect Ling Xuewei to be so difficult to deal with.
"No? Is it okay for the princess to just say no? What happened at the banquet just now can be seen clearly by anyone with a discerning eye. It was the princess who accidentally fell down but she blamed me?"
Ling Xuewei said lightly.
"Then now that this is happening, can I infer that the princess is unhappy and resents her daughter, so she is framed now?"
After saying this, Yu Wenxuan, the crown prince of Xiliang Kingdom, came out and said, "Master Xuanyuan, I can testify to this. The princess fell just now. It was indeed the princess who was careless and had nothing to do with Miss Ling."
After he finished speaking, there was an uproar around him.
First, I was surprised that the princess actually lied in public, and second, I was surprised that the prince of Xiliang Kingdom would speak for Ling Xuewei.
"You, you... this princess did not lie!"
Xuanyuan Yanran felt a sense of embarrassment and rage when she saw that the princes of Xiliang Kingdom were speaking for Ling Xuewei.
"Ling Xuewei, how could you frame me!"
"False accusation? Did the princess make a mistake?"
Ling Xuewei frowned.
"Since the princess can rely on her own conjecture to say that I intend to murder you, then why can't I speculate that the princess deliberately framed me? Is it possible that the officers and soldiers are only allowed to prevent fires and the people are not allowed to light lamps?"
"You! You are so presumptuous!!" Xuanyuan Yanran was so angry that Ling Xuewei jumped up and down.
"enough!!"
Xuanyuan Zhan shouted loudly, which made Xuanyuan Yanran shut up bitterly.
"Yan'er, don't make any suspicions before this matter is investigated clearly."
Xuanyuan Zhan said.
"Since you are the princess of Xuanyuan Kingdom, you must always remember your identity! Look what you look like now!!"
Xuanyuan Yanran wanted to refute, but at the signal from the queen next to her, she shut her mouth.
"Your Majesty, Yan'er was also frightened, otherwise she wouldn't have lost her composure like this."
The queen secretly wiped away her tears while comforting Xuanyuan Yanran.
"As you know, Yan'er has always been innocent and straightforward. Although she sometimes behaves a bit mischievously, she is not bad in nature. Fortunately, there was no danger this time, otherwise I really don't know what to do!"
Sitting next to Xuanyuan Zhan is a woman about thirty years old. She wears a phoenix crown and has a beautiful face. Her face is somewhat similar to Xuanyuan Yanran.
This person is the queen of Xuanyuan Kingdom and the biological mother of the prince and Xuanyuan Yanran.
"The queen is right, Yan'er, don't do it again, do you understand?" Xuanyuan Zhan's anger subsided a lot.
Xuanyuan Yanran bit her lip, with a trace of unwillingness in her eyes.
The queen gave her a 'be patient' look, and then looked at Ling Xuewei with a smile, "Miss Ling, Yan'er is just young and ignorant, I hope you can forgive her. What's more, even if the third lady's guard did something extraordinary,
It has nothing to do with Miss Third, right?"
Ling Xuewei narrowed her eyes slightly.
This queen is smarter than that Xuanyuan Yanran.
Retreat in order to advance, right? Then let me see what you want to do!
"Your Majesty, I think this matter is none of Third Miss's business. If Third Miss is really disloyal, there is no need to be so obvious and even send her own bodyguards there!" the Queen said.
"Well, the queen is right. So, is it the guard who has evil intentions?" After saying this, Xuanyuan Zhan's expression changed, "Assassins below, why don't you tell the truth!!"
In one sentence, he was convicted.
Ling Xuewei had actually noticed it a long time ago.
Xuanyuan Zhan wanted to sacrifice Xiao Yifeng and resolve this matter as soon as possible.
By doing this, first of all, Ling Xuewei, the so-called ‘fiancée’ of Gu Yunqing, will not be offended.
Secondly, he also saved his royal face and gave Xuanyuan Yanran and everyone present an explanation.
Xuanyuan Zhan expected that no one would involve him for a guard.
But he didn't expect that Xiao Yifeng was more than just a guard to Ling Xuewei.
"Your Majesty, since he is my bodyguard, there are some things I want to ask him personally and ask for Your Majesty's approval." Ling Xuewei took a step forward.
Xuanyuan Zhan thought for a moment, then nodded, "Sure."
Ling Xuewei thanked her and then walked slowly to Xiao Yifeng.
At this time, Xiao Yifeng, who had remained silent from beginning to end, slowly raised his head.
"Xiao Yifeng, do you know your guilt?"
As soon as Ling Xuewei's words came out, not only Xiao Yifeng, but also Gu Yunqing and Yu Wenxuan next to him were startled.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is a conspiracy against Ling Xuewei.
When Ling Xuewei said this now, did she want to abandon her soldiers to protect her commander?
Gu Yunqing's eyes flashed with doubts, and his brows furrowed slightly.
Xiao Yifeng looked at him without speaking.
Xuanyuan Yanran next to her raised her head proudly, but Ling Xuewei's next words made her dumbfounded.
"Just by asking you to find Snowball, you can get yourself into such trouble. As my bodyguard, you failed to fulfill your duties faithfully. Do you know your guilt?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd burst into uproar.
Gu Yunqing smiled.
And that smile was very pleasant. Anyone who looked at it could tell he was in a good mood at the moment.
Yu Wenxuanyi pursed his lips slightly, flicked his folding fan, and started watching the show excitedly.
"Ling Xuewei!! What do you mean? Who are you talking about?" Xuanyuan Yanran was furious!
Ling Xuewei didn't even look at her, she looked up and said, "Your Majesty, my escort cannot be an assassin. Your Majesty, please be careful!"
Xuanyuan Zhan's face turned ugly for a moment.
After all, there are really not many people who dare to dismantle him in public.
This woman is too bold!
At this time, the Queen spoke, with a look of displeasure on her face, "Miss Ling San, this is your fault. His Majesty no longer holds you responsible for your responsibilities, so how can you still contradict His Majesty in public? You don't even have His Majesty in your eyes?!"
"
"I didn't mean to be rude, but it's about my reputation, so I have to stand up and say something." Ling Xuewei had a tough attitude.
The queen wanted to say something else, but Xuanyuan Zhan raised his hand to stop her. He said coldly, "Okay, I'm all ears. Miss Ling San, please speak."
Ling Xuewei bowed and then spoke slowly, "The reason why I said the assassin was not my escort is because I think there are a few things that are very suspicious."
"Oh? Tell me about it."
"As my bodyguard, why did Yifeng want to assassinate the princess?" Ling Xuewei asked, "What was his motive?"
"You have a grudge against me!" Xuanyuan Yanran said immediately, "Ling Xuewei, you are so cruel. You want to kill this princess just because of a trivial matter!"
"Oh!" Ling Xuewei laughed, "If according to what the princess said, I have a grudge against the princess. Then in order to cover up others' eyes, shouldn't I send someone else to assassinate her?"
Xuanyuan Yanran was stunned.
"Furthermore, everyone knows the consequences of assassinating a princess of a country. How much hatred is there to make me and my guards risk beheading to do this treasonous thing?"
Ling Xuewei took advantage of the victory to pursue her, looked straight at Xuanyuan Yanran and continued.
"Tonight, the princess and I just met for the first time. We have never met before, and we don't have any personal grudges. So, why should I let the guards around me assassinate her? And risk being discovered?"
Hearing this, everyone around them nodded, feeling that it made sense.
"You..." Xuanyuan Yanran never thought that Ling Xuewei was so sharp-tongued and could be recognized by most people with just a few words.
She wanted to refute, but couldn't think of a reason for a while.
"Let's not talk about it. No matter how much hatred I have against the princess, I will not be so stupid as to let my bodyguard Da Lala go and assassinate her without any plan. Isn't this going to set me on fire?"
Ling Xuewei would not give Xuanyuan Yanran a chance to think slowly.
"I don't need to tell you what the consequences will be if you are discovered. Everyone should understand. Although I, Ling Xuewei, am not very smart, I am not so stupid."
"Haha..." After he finished speaking, he heard a low laughter from the side.
Ling Xuewei looked at Gu Yunqing, who was watching the show alone, and rolled her eyes in her heart.
"There is a third point!" Ling Xuewei ignored Gu Yunqing and continued. "Her Royal Highness, you said you were assassinated, so may I ask, what did Yifeng use to assassinate you?"
Xuanyuan Yanran was startled, "This..."
"When attending a palace banquet, no one is allowed to bring weapons privately. Moreover, before entering the banquet, the guards outside searched us and found no weapons hidden on us."
Ling Xuewei's questions were each more sharp than the last.
"Excuse me, what did he use to stab you? Was he just left empty-handed?"
"This, this may be an oversight by the Royal Forest Army!" Xuanyuan Yanran racked her brains to come up with a reason, "Maybe you have weapons hidden in other places..."
"Oh? What the princess means is that the imperial guards in the palace have failed in their duties?" Ling Xuewei smiled.
"I……"
"Your Majesty, please be aware! The Imperial Guards have fulfilled their duties and made sure that no one has secretly concealed weapons at the banquet! Your Majesty, please take a closer look!" At this time, the commander of the Imperial Guards hurriedly stepped forward to report.
Xuanyuan Zhan didn't expect that this matter could actually involve the Royal Forest Army, and his face suddenly turned ugly.
"I trust Commander Fang, please go down."
After this encounter, Xuanyuan Zhan felt that the woman below was indeed something special.
