Taihua Palace, the sky is already dark, but the lights in the hall are as bright as day, and the dark faces of everyone are brightly flashed by the dazzling light. The sandalwood smoke in the Dading incense burner is curling, and the plain incense is lingering.

All the guests hung their heads on both sides of the hall with bated breath, and the face of the man in bright yellow clothes sitting on the high seat was as dark as a dark cloud in the sky, as if the next second of pouring rain was about to fall down.

A woman was ragged, unkempt lying on the Yunxiang ink felt in the main hall, her thin shoulders twitched and shook, accompanied by the cry of her relatives, the woman raised her blood-red eyes with monstrous anger, clenched the golden phoenix hairpin in her hand, and her whole body trembled violently.

"Holy Lord..."The woman shouted miserably, her blood-red eyes looked at the man sitting on the high, her weak figure was like a willow by the lake, and she threw herself on the ground with the corner of her clothes and cried: "Holy Lord, Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess is so cruel! Now that he has pushed the courtiers into it... Devil's Cave. After speaking, he threw the hairpin in his palm forward, and with the sound of jingling, everyone hurriedly raised their eyebrows.

Under the shroud of the palace lamp, the golden phoenix hairpin emitted a bright and bright light, but with a bit of faint cold light, everyone lowered their faces and did not dare to look at it again.

Lin Hanzheng's face on the side was slightly pale, Ruyu's face frowned tightly, and he glanced at Lin Xianying, who was thin and slender in the center of the hall, a trace of resentment crossed his eyes, and he hurriedly threw his sleeves forward and kowtowed: "Holy Lord, Ying'er, she has a pure mind, and what she said will be true." Lin Hanzheng raised his hand to wipe the fine sweat on his forehead, turned his eyes to look at Yuwen Jingyi, who was standing next to the Panlong Golden Pillar, and lowered his body violently: "Actually, Ying'er has always belonged to the prince's cousin, and Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess may be dissatisfied, so she wants to harm Ying'er, and Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess..."

"Shut up, shut up!" The furious Yuwen Jingyi jumped out, raised his hand and wanted to hit Lin Hanzheng, who was kneeling on the ground, and when he looked at the cold dragon face of the bright yellow man sitting on the ground, he retracted his palm in a sneer.

Yuwen Ling coughed softly a few times while hiding the yellow silk veil, his cyan face twitched, and a smile curved into the corner of his chapped lips: "I didn't know that it was the prince's turn to call the shots in this Taihua Palace." The fluttering words were like a sharp knife with a cold edge, and he was fixed to Yuwen Jingyi, who was standing under the pillar.

Yuwen Jingyi hurriedly hid the uneasiness in his eyes, and knelt on the ground awe-inspiringly: "Please atone for your sins!" ”

His head was attached to the ancient porcelain blue brick, and the cold to the bones flowed from his skin to the white bones of his limbs, and for a moment Yuwen Jingyi didn't even dare to come out, shrinking his body and fixing there.

He has always regarded himself as high-minded, brave and strategic, but in front of the scheming Northern Emperor Yuwen Lingyong, Yuwen Jingyi still has self-knowledge and does not dare to blaspheme one or two, otherwise, he is afraid that the position of the prince that he has won with great difficulty will be in vain, because he knows that his name is not right, so he must always keep in mind and not relax.

Yuwen Ling Yong pulled the dragon brocade robe that covered his knees, raised his eyes slightly, looked at Lin Xianying on the ground, who was like a gossamer and unclothed, and shot at her coldly: "Miss Lin, you tell the truth, and you must not hide anything." ”

Lin Xianying, who was lying on the ground, trembled like a sieve, blood and tears flowed out of her pale and gray face, she grabbed the torn shirt and skirt hatefully, lowered her eyebrows and lowered her head and said: "The courtiers will tell the truth and dare not hide it." ”

Lin Xianying is a scheming person, although she is the eldest lady of the Lin Mansion, she is a concubine after all, and she has been pressed by Lin Xianrou who is not as good as her since she was a child, and her heart has long been distorted. She has admired her personable cousin Yuwen Jingyi since she was a child, but he is wholeheartedly devoted to the crown princess Zhu Shaosi, so he doesn't dare to have any transgressions.

But Lin Xianying's girlish heart was restless and ready to move, and she was also seen by the same thoughtful and vicious Zhu Shaosi, who said that Miss Gu of Otsuka Zaifu acted obediently and was outstanding, and it was very likely that she would be married to Yuwen Jingyi as the crown prince by the saint in the future.

In order to clear the obstacles and troubles, Zhu Shaosi asked Lin Xianying to help her eradicate the stumbling block of Fu Liluo, and promised to make a proposal to the saint after the matter was completed, and accept Lin Xianying to Yuwen Jingyi as a concubine.

Although she has always been arrogant and unwilling to follow her mother's back path to make people small, but the other party is the handsome and dashing His Royal Highness the Prince, Lin Xianying still accepts it willingly.

But what Lin Xianying didn't expect was that the dirty-minded, vicious and sinister Zhu Shaosi actually wanted to harm her, and actually pushed her into the place where life was worse than death, and the ghostly and lewd man lifted her up like an eagle catching a chicken, and tore her gorgeous skirt again, and then beat her on the broken mat that smelled of maggots...

Large tears of blood slipped down Lin Xianying's delicate pale cheeks and fell on the back of her broken and bleeding hand, and it was like a burning pain.

The brocade cloak on the thin shoulders slipped quietly, and the bruises and purple marks on her body were revealed in front of everyone's eyes, Lin Xianying had no time to take care of everyone's embarrassed eyes, and her body that had been bitten by the devil was extremely painful, but the most painful thing was the heart that was full of holes and pus.

Especially when she saw the angry Yuwen Jingyi looking at her with disgust and disgust, as if she blamed her for wronging his precious Zhu Shaosi, Lin Xianying couldn't stop trembling, and the pain in her heart was a hundred times worse than the pain on her body.

"Sister, you have suffered. Lin Xianrou on the side picked up the fur on the soft chair and rushed over, with red eyes, she helped Lin Xianying wrap her trembling body, crawled forward with her knees propped up, and lowered her eyes towards the high seat: "Holy Lord, please punish the wicked and give my sister justice." After that, a pair of beautiful eyes swept into the hall, and his eyes widened angrily: "Is Her Royal Highness the despicable and shameless Crown Princess hiding and not daring to come?"

"Rou'er, you are presumptuous!"

Yuwen Jingyi, who was kneeling under the Pu Huang mat, turned his head and shouted at the indignant Lin Xianrou, his sword eyebrows were upside down, and his black eyes were wide, like a beast that wanted to eat people.

Lin Hanzheng, who has always been gentle and elegant, was annoyed and his entire neck turned red, and he prostrate himself with starry eyes and bowed, like a jade handsome face shrouded in dark clouds: "Saint, the Lin family has been loyal and good for generations, and it belongs to the emperor's relatives and relatives, today Ling Mei was murdered by Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess, dare to ask the people of Beiyi, which one is not chilling!"

Lin Hanzheng's white skin was tightly wrinkled together, and he pounded his head in pain: "Holy Lord, the crown princess's heart can be punished! He not only harmed Ling Mei, but also pushed the ancient lady of the Otsuka Zaifu into the Zao Lake, if General Dou hadn't arrived in time, I am afraid she would have drowned." ”

Thinking of the stunning girl's pale little face, and thinking of her slender and soft fluttering on the surface of the lake, Lin Hanzheng's heart seemed to be blocked by a boulder and was about to lose his breath.

"Bastard! cough" Yuwen Lingyong's beard on the soft seat of the high hall trembled, and he looked at Yuwen Jingyi with a gloomy face, and slapped it on the bright yellow incense case: "His Royal Highness the Prince, your gentle and lovely, virtuous and virtuous princess is really amazing!" Yuwen Lingyong's face tightened, and he kicked over the incense burner under his feet, and they stood up and shouted: "Dare to do such a thing that is inferior to pigs and dogs in the Da Nei Palace, is she still worthy of the crown princess of Beiyi?"

The fathers-in-law on the side stepped forward with the dust in their hands, some cleaned the incense burner, some were busy cheering for Yuwen Lingyong, and some knelt under the bright yellow soft seat, hanging their heads and not even daring to come out.

Everyone was terrified, for fear that they would accidentally anger Long Yan and lose their lives.

"Holy Lord, wronged!" Yuwen Jingyi impatiently stepped forward and climbed a step, raised his arrogant head and said sincerely: "The crown princess has always been kind and kind, with a pure mind, she will never do such a thing, I still remember the drought in Tuliang Dazhou last year, she personally asked for a book to go to Dazhou to release food for disaster relief, regardless of her physical discomfort, she ran around for days, and finally fell seriously ill. ”

Yuwen Jingyi changed his words as he spoke, and suddenly looked at the weak Lin Xianying with red eyes: "Presumably Sister Ying'er is wrong, the crown princess looked tired because of her heavy body, so she went to Xiangju Building to sleep at noon, how could she go to the remote east hall to harm you? ”

Yuwen Jingyi's narrow eyes were bent into a thin slit, and the half-squinted Tongren exuded a gloomy light, and the last few words carried obvious warnings and threats.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't have to be angry!" Lin Hanzheng, who was like a crown of jade, flicked his sleeves, smiled coldly at the corner of his mouth, straightened his back and pointed to the clear golden phoenix hairpin on the felt: "Presumably this is familiar with His Royal Highness the Prince of the Hairpin, right?

"Lin Er, you..." Yuwen Jingyi was a little angry, but in the face of Lin Hanzheng's fierce accusations for a while, he couldn't answer, and his face was flushed.

"Holy Lord, please Mingjian!" Lin Hanzheng supported Lin Xianying, who was languid and pale, with one hand, while grabbing the golden phoenix hairpin on the ground and raising his hand: "Saint, if this golden phoenix hairpin is not misremembered, it should have been rewarded by you to the crown princess last year, and I am afraid that you can't find the second one in the entire palace, right?" Lin Hanzheng's expression was awe-inspiring, and his handsome face was even more elegant under the bright light.

"It's true, this is still the crown princess's birthday last year!"

Mrs. Xiang at the corner of the pillar raised her eyebrows and glanced at Jin Fengchai a few times, and pulled Zhu Shaoqing, who was smiling lightly on the side, and she deliberately raised her voice to ensure that everyone listened to it truthfully.

"Shengshang, this is my sister's, it was awarded by the Shengshang last year, my sister is baby!" The crisp voice remembered, everyone followed the sound and looked, Zhu Shaoqing, who was dressed in a gorgeous brocade robe, stepped forward and bowed to the ground, and his plump and slender body fell forward like a water snake: "My sister is too precious to wear a hairpin, and she will only wear a hairpin at such a grand banquet, how could this good pearl hairpin fall in that dirty place!"

Zhu Shaoqing blinked his slender eyes, his face was puzzled, but the corners of his round lips were filled with a strange smile.

Her words caused the guests to talk about each other.

The Northern Emperor Yuwen Ling Yong, who was sitting high, squinted his eyes and glanced at the shining phoenix hairpin a few times, his thin and resolute face became darker and darker, and the cold eyes that were deep in his eye sockets were like ice cubes that had not melted for thousands of years on the peak of the snow-capped mountain, and he looked at Yuwen Jingyi who was half-kneeling with a fixed face.

"Holy... Saint..."Yuwen Jingyi, who was still angry before, was drooping his head at this moment, kneeling there like a frosted eggplant, only to feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, and the chill that penetrated into his bones poured down from the high seat above his head.

In the main hall, there was silence, and everyone heard each other's fluctuating heartbeats.

A terrible shout came from the sandalwood scent, accompanied by the stumbling footsteps of a slender girl.

"Holy Lord, help! the crown princess is going to kill someone. ”

Everyone looked back in shock, only to see a guard bring a girl in, the girl's shape was withered, her satin-like hair hung down on her waist and was a little messy, and before she could stand firmly, she was supported by a man in black clothes under the golden pillars.

"Holy Lord, the courtiers were unwell because they fell into the lake, so they rested in the side hall on the orders of His Royal Highness the Prince. Fu Liluo raised his tear-stained slightly wet and frightened little face, and knelt on the ground: "Who knew that as soon as she slept for a while, Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess stabbed her courtiers with a sharp knife..."

Dou Xiaoyangjun, who had been silent, had a steep face, a pair of phoenix eyes were suddenly cold, he looked at the stunning girl who was trembling all over, and stepped forward with a fist and said: "Holy Lord, fortunately, the side hall is close to this, otherwise this Miss Gu would have died." Dou Xiaoyang's heart ached, and he was afraid when he thought of her running for her life in horror, and the delicate body he had just held was obviously trembling.

"Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess despises the imperial power so much, she is so bold and monstrous, and she acts viciously and murders the meritorious daughter of Beiyi, in fact, she should be punished!"

Someone in the main hall took the lead in protesting.

"Yes, the crown princess dares to be so shocking in the sky, please make a ruling!"

For a while, there was a lot of discussion in the hall, and everyone was shocked, and they turned their heads and ears.

Cough... Cough.. Cough, Gao sat on the bench and coughed violently, and after a while, the bright yellow shirt on the high hall stood up, and coldly pulled the chapped lips and scolded: "The crown princess is morally corrupt, vicious, and insidious, so she removed the name of the crown princess, demoted to the fifth-class concubine of the East Palace, and was confined to the Xiangju Building of the East Palace." ”
