Emperor Meng Zhao's attitude at this moment was obviously neutral, and he neither directly believed Meng Jin's words, nor did he completely deny what Meng Jin said because he thought it was incredible. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Things have to be clarified, no matter what the truth is, after all, this matter has involved his two princesses, and at the same time, it has involved the concubines behind the two princesses.
If it is not solved well, I am afraid that the impact will be more troublesome than the incident itself, so Emperor Meng Zhao came to inquire about this matter, and the rights and wrongs can be in his grasp.
At this time, Meng Xia was no longer silent, she took two steps forward, still holding the previous teapot in her hand. It's just that since Liu Guifei and her party came, they deliberately covered it with wide sleeves, and they didn't let them know.
"Back to my father, Ah Xia does have something to say."
She stood there, her expression not as calm and calm as before, but with an indescribable anger, as if she had been suppressed for a long time.
"Things are not like what the Fifth Emperor Sister said at all, Ah Xia did hide in the Linfeng Pavilion because of the rain on the way back to Heling Palace, but it was obviously the Fifth Emperor Sister who was sneering and forceful, and she must let me drink a cup of tea she gave me, which is completely unreasonable, not that Ah Xia did anything wrong!"
"I don't think it's right, I don't want to drink that cup of tea, but the Fifth Emperor Sister actually let the palace people around her forcibly pour each other, and she also put down the cruel words and drank it, and if she didn't drink it, she had to drink, otherwise she would be her enemy, and she would bear the consequences."
Speaking of this, Meng Xia was so excited that even his body trembled a little, and his face subconsciously turned pale.
She struggled to control the tears that were about to fall in her eyes and continued: "At that time, I was extremely scared, and subconsciously resisted the coercion of several palace people, who raised their hands and wanted to beat me, and I knocked over the cup of tea in a hurry, but I didn't expect them to pick up the teapot directly and want to pour me!" ”
At this moment, Meng Xia basically told the truth, but the subsequent events were deleted by her without a trace: "Please also ask my father Emperor Mingjian, at that time, Ah Xia was really afraid and angry, and used all his strength to struggle desperately, and finally grabbed a handful in a panic to have a chance to escape." I didn't dare to go back to Heling Palace, so I found a place to hide for a long time, and after making sure that no one was chasing me anymore, I thought about going to the Third Emperor Brother for an idea, but I didn't expect ......"
In the end, Meng Xia was already choked up, and tears could no longer help but burst out of his eyes, which was extremely sad to watch.
Who wouldn't be able to act? Liu's mother and daughter rushed to harm her, and she had nothing to be polite about.
The dagger was directly denied, and the thing was no longer put on his body now.
She is not afraid of Meng Jin than serious skills, and she is more likely to lose than opening her eyes and telling lies?
"It's not like this, Meng Xia is lying, things are not like that at all!"
Seeing this, Meng Jin immediately became anxious and hurriedly retorted.
She didn't expect that Meng Xia would be so shameless, telling lies in front of her father, removing all those that are unfavorable, and pretending to be pitiful, crying and crying, which is really disgusting.
"Jin'er, now you and Ah Xia have their own words, since you said that she is lying, what proof do you have?"
Emperor Meng Zhao asked again, and directly asked Meng Jin for evidence.
Meng Jin did not hesitate, and immediately answered: "Father, all the palace people beside Jin'er can testify, and the palace people who were stabbed by Meng Xia are even more ironclad evidence. The wound on her hand was the one from the dagger that Meng Xia carried with her, and she only had to compare the wounds to make it clear. ”
As soon as these words came out, the palace people quickly stepped forward to confirm that what the fifth princess said was true.
Especially the palace man who was stabbed by Meng Xia pointed to his hastily bandaged arm and swore that he didn't dare to say a word.
The situation suddenly became extremely unfavorable for Meng Xia, Ning Guifei was worried in her heart, and wanted to speak for Meng Xia, but when she saw that she inadvertently signaled to herself, she quickly held back, settled down and decided to wait and see what happened.
At that time, she received a message from Caiyi secretly sent a message of 100,000 urgently, and she didn't have time to figure out the cause and effect, so she could only choose to believe Meng Xia out of instinct, and immediately went to the imperial study according to her request to bring the emperor to the place Meng Xia asked for in the name of enjoying the flowers after the rain.
But he never thought that Liu's mother and daughter would harm Meng Xia so shamelessly, and after the mistake, they tried in vain to sue the wicked person first and frame him again.
The situation is really serious, and Meng Xia is quite anxious to treat him, and it seems that he had expected that Liu's mother and daughter would have this hand.
Now she doesn't know Meng Xia's specific way to deal with it, so it is indeed not appropriate to intervene at will in the current plan, lest it will be worse.
The situation at the scene made Emperor Meng Zhao hesitate a little.
After a while, he had to look at Meng Xia again and asked, "Ah Xia, is what these palace people said true, and what justification do you have?" ”
"Thank you father for giving Asha the opportunity to defend himself."
Seeing this, Meng Xia immediately said: "Father, these witnesses are all people who serve with the Fifth Emperor Sister, and the credibility of using their own people to testify for themselves is not high. As for the injuries on the hands of the people in that palace, Ah Xia didn't know about it, if my father didn't believe it, he could search whether I was carrying the dagger that the Fifth Emperor Sister said. ”
In two neat sentences, Meng Xia did not admit these accusations at all, and even took the initiative to mention the body search, acting frankly!
If there is no third-party witness or physical evidence for this kind of thing, it is difficult to explain it clearly, and the mother and daughter of the Liu family know this reason so dare to bite back so confidently, but Meng Xia is not stupid, how can it be so easy to follow the Tao of others.
When Emperor Meng Zhao heard this, he couldn't help but nodded.
I was trying to let people check whether there was any dagger as Meng Xia said, so that I could make a comparison, but Meng Jin rushed to go first.
"Meng Xia, do you think that you hid the dagger so that people can deny everything if they can't find the murder weapon?"
Meng Jin was extremely annoyed, but he had expected it with a look on his face, and said excitedly: "I know that you will definitely not admit the evil things you have done, but fortunately, God has eyes, and I have other witnesses!" You didn't expect that, in addition to the palace people who served beside me, there were other people passing by at that time who witnessed everything! ”
Directly skipping the useless link of searching for the dagger, she directly showed the biggest hole card, anyway, she didn't plan to trap Meng Xia with the most difficult method of searching for the murder weapon.
The situation took a big turn again, and Emperor Meng Zhao, who originally wanted to say something, simply decided to take a look at it first.
And after Meng Jin released another big move, he looked at Emperor Meng Zhao with great grievance again and said: "Father, Jin'er has other witnesses, which is enough to prove what Jin'er said before, and I implore my father to allow the witnesses to come forward to testify." ”
Emperor Meng Zhao nodded in agreement, and Concubine Ning on the side couldn't help but become solemn again.
