So Shen Chen and Bai Qian supported the "immobile" Cangwu Jingkite on the one hand, and the three of them walked all the way to the empress's palace, and the palace maids and eunuchs who passed by on the way couldn't bear to look at the four princesses with vain steps.

The empress was talking to Shen He at this time, and Shen He wisely did not mention the punishment of Cangwu Jinxiu.

"Your lord, the fourth princess, and the white bachelor have arrived!" As soon as the eunuch's words fell, the empress saw that Cangwu Jingkite was helped in, her face was frighteningly pale, but she still barely bowed: "Erchen...... See The Mother. ”

"No need to salute, Shen Chen, you quickly help Jing Kite to the soft chair." The empress is not a hard-hearted person, seeing that Cangwu Jingyuan couldn't even stand, she hurriedly asked someone to bring her soft chair up, Shen Chen put Cangwu Jingkite on the chair without saying a word, and then hinted that Bai Qian was standing beside her.

"Empress Xie." Looking at the miserable punishment of Cangwu Jingkite, Shen He secretly sneered in his heart, he did not doubt that Zhang Quan would do anything in this.

"It's just that you've been in prison for a few days, Jing Yuan, why are you so weak, could it be that you are being tortured in prison?"

"No, the Mother ......" Cangwu Jingyuan said as she pretended to get up, and as soon as she pulled it, she bit her lower lip tightly, looking like she was trying her best to endure it.

"Bai Qian, you roll up the sleeves of the fourth princess and show me." The empress retreated left and right and ordered Bai Qian.

"Yes." Bai Qian rolled up the sleeve of the Cangwu Jing Kite very lightly and slowly, and the scar on the hand of the Cangwu Jing Kite was revealed little by little, horizontally and vertically, with new injuries stacked on top of old injuries, and it looked very hideous and terrifying on the white and tender arm, and the arm was still like this, not to mention those invisible other parts.

"What a daring!" The empress stared straight at the wounds of Cangwu Jingyu, and lowered her eyes: "Dare to execute the princess of a country without my order, Shen He, you go and ask someone to tie up those cell heads and put them in the prison, and wait for the fate." ”

"Your Majesty, by all means." Shen He didn't expect the empress to react so much, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop it, if the prison head was really arrested, I am afraid that the matter of instigating Zhang Quan's abuse of lynching would also be exposed, and he couldn't take this risk.

"Why not, can it be that the dignified princess can be abused and lynched, can't I, as the king of a country, execute a few people who violate the yang and yin?"

"Your Majesty, please calm your anger, that's not what the minister meant." Shen Heqiao's tongue was like a spring: "These prison officials are not abusing lynching, you have forgotten, there is a law in the previous dynasty that is still in use today, and anyone who is imprisoned must first eat a hundred lashes to serve as a warning." I think it's because the fourth princess is delicate and expensive, so the wound looks scary, and the left is just a skin injury, so it's good to apply some medicine. ”

"Shen Huangfu's words are wrong." Before Cangwu Jingkite could speak, Bai Qian walked to the empress with calm eyes: "The minister thinks that the hundred lashes are to beat the guilty, not the innocent, the fourth princess suffered this beating in vain, it is really unfair to her, although the assassin has been captured, but according to my Cangwu legal calendar, not only can this matter not be stopped like this, but it must be thoroughly investigated." ”

"Master Bai, since the matter has come to light and the fourth princess is safe and sound, why do you want to have another dispute?"

Although Shen He looked down on Cangwu Jingyu, he was quite jealous of the future prime minister of Cangwu Kingdom, and if Cangwu Jinxiu wanted to become the eldest princess in the future, he would have to borrow her strength.

"I'm not starting a dispute, Imperial Husband, I'm defending the laws of my Cangwu Kingdom, so that it won't become a gold medal for murderers to avoid death, or an excuse for harboring evil intentions!" Bai Qian was not afraid, and looked directly at Shen He.

Seeing that the empress didn't speak, Cangwu Jingyuan pretended to be weak and opened her mouth: "Bai Qian, the imperial husband is right, since I'm fine, forget it, after all, it's ......"

Cangwu Jingyuan said with a wry smile and glanced up at the empress: "That's the eldest princess!" ”

Cangwu Jingkite's wry smile and helpless glance are sincere, she has no mood to disguise herself, she only feels that her heart is colder than when she was arrested, she has been imprisoned for a few days, the mother has only come once, or is it a routine interrogation, what do you expect from this point?

But it was precisely this glance with expectation and disappointment that made Cangwu Lingshuang's heart tremble for a long time, what she saw at this time was not a princess's expectation of the empress, but a daughter's expectation of her mother.

This daughter who has always been unfavored has just been bullied by another favored daughter, she looks at her mother sadly, hoping to get her mother's care and comfort, but her mother only thinks about how to suppress this matter, she sees her mother's thoughts, and finally extinguishes the light in her eyes in disappointment.

Cangwu Lingshuang couldn't help but think of when she was a child, she was beaten by other brothers and sisters, and she was so aggrieved that she had to run to the mother emperor every time to show her her wounds, in fact, it was not very painful, but she just wanted the mother emperor to hold herself in her arms and blow it to herself, so it would be good.

And now her fourth daughter, why don't they have such thoughts?

"Bai Qian, I will consider your suggestion, come here, send the fourth princess back to the palace to cultivate with peace of mind, as for me, I want to go to the Fenghua Palace." Cangwu Jinxiu is now recuperating in Fenghua Palace.

"Your Majesty, if you want to punish Jinxiu, then the minister dares not to go." Shen He thought about it, but still knelt down in front of everyone: "Jinxiu suffered a stick sore that day, and then it added wind and cold, and now he is bedridden, and he is afraid that his life is worried." ”

"What!" The empress raised her voice, and Cangwu Jingyi and Bai Qian glanced at each other, they didn't know if this was true, or just a bitter ploy by Cangwu Jinxiu to avoid being held accountable.

Cangwu Jingkite only raised for a few days, and when he was sick, he couldn't bear to run out to find Bai Qian.

"Didn't I say I would go to see you? Why did you run out again. Bai Qian looked around carefully, and then took the Cangwu Jingkite inside, and the Cangwu Jingkite took the opportunity to hold her hand.

"Are you afraid that others won't know that your injuries are fake?"

"As long as I don't say it, who dares to come to see my injuries." Cangwu Jingyuan took a grape and threw it into her mouth nonchalantly.

"Who dares? The imperial doctor dares, the empress dares. Bai Qianqu flicked his finger on the forehead of the Cangwu Jing Kite, but the Cangwu Jing Kite did not dodge, and ate a chestnut firmly.

"Alright, no kidding." Bai Qianhui looked serious: "Have you seen the prince of Beiyuan in the past few days?" ”

"No, what's wrong?"

"He's been inquiring about you since the day he entered the palace."

"What are you doing to inquire about me?" Cangwu Jingkite was a little dazed, and then became nervous: "He doesn't think I'm the mastermind behind the scenes, and I want to be held accountable, right?" ”

"Not really." Bai Qian shook his head, "I think he seems to be paying special attention to you." I heard that he intends to marry Cangwu. ”

"Since ancient times, marriage has been a good way to ensure a win-win situation for both politicians." Cangwu Jing Kite said: "It's just that this prince of Beiyuan doesn't look like a person who is addicted to beauty, I think he should have other intentions when he proposes this mention." ”

After Cangwu Jingyuan finished speaking, she found that Bai Qian was not listening to her, but staring at her, so she reacted in disbelief: "No, you don't think ...... I ...... with him."

Seeing that Bai Qian didn't speak, Cangwu Jingyuan smiled helplessly and explained: "Impossible, Prince Beiyuan and I are not even friends, and the last time we met, we just chatted a few words." ”

Cangwu Jingyuan suddenly hooked the corners of her lips as she spoke, leaned in front of Bai Qian, raised her eyebrows, and said, "Are you jealous?" ”

"I want to go." Bai Qian glanced at Cangwu Jingkite as he spoke, then turned around and left.

Cangwu Jing Kite touched her nose, "I must be jealous, not only jealous but also angry." ”

On the way back from the white and shallow Xueyang Palace, Cangwu Jingyuan met Cangwu Jingrui, who had not been seen for a long time, and the kid was still a hanger, seeing that he pretended not to see himself, Cangwu Jingyuan didn't squint and ignored him.

Seeing that Cangwu Jingyuan really didn't stop himself, Cangwu Jingrui couldn't hold his breath, and he shouted first: "Hey, Cangwu Jingkite, I'm such a big person here, don't you see it?" ”

"I'm sorry," Cangwu Jingyi curled the corners of her mouth lightly, "I don't care much about people and things that don't matter. ”

"You!" Cangwu Jing was angry, and thought that she had just come out of prison and was recuperating from her injuries, so he snorted twice and didn't care about her.

Cangwu Jingrui didn't expect Cangwu Jingrui to stop like this today, and said a little strangely: "Cangwu Jingrui, when will you become considerate, the sun didn't come out of the west today, right?" ”

"I'm not being considerate of you." Cangwu Jingrui is still hard-mouthed: "I'm so considerate to everyone!" ”

Seeing that Cangwu Jingrui was still looking at him with the eyes of some rare animal, Cangwu Jingrui pretended to be fierce again: "How is the injury on your body, let you meddle in your affairs, and now you have an injury, are you satisfied?" “

This time, Cangwu Jingrui didn't tease Cangwu Jingrui anymore, took a few steps forward and hugged his neck and smiled: "Although I haven't seen your kid since I was imprisoned, I won't bother with you with your words, in short, thank you." ”

Cangwu Jingrui, who once boasted that his face was thicker than the city wall, miraculously blushed, shook off the hand of Cangwu Jingyuan on his shoulder, and muttered: "I didn't go to see if you couldn't get into the prison!" And、And who is rare to thank you! I still have something to do in the palace, so I'll go back first. Saying that, Cangwu Jingrui turned his head and walked back.

Cangwu Jingkite knew his intentions, and he no longer teased him, preparing to return to Chaoyang Palace.

"Hey, Cangwu Jingjing!" I didn't take two steps before I heard Cangwu Jingrui's voice coming from behind.

"Cangwu Jingkite, since Sister Bai chooses to be with you, I, I will bless you. And、And from now on, I will also protect you, and if there is anything, you can also tell me, don't always carry it alone.。 ”

Cangwu Jingkite didn't look back, waved his hand, but the smile on the corner of his mouth couldn't help but gradually expand.
