"Queen, you said I stole your things. What evidence do you have? In the face of the queen's accusations, Murong Xuanji not only did not have a trace of panic, but looked at the queen with a stern face.

"On the queen's birthday three years ago, the emperor personally selected a night pearl to give to the queen, and put it in the queen's bedroom to collect. Before the queen could speak, the grandmother beside her said loudly.

"What evidence do you have that I stole it?" Murong Xuanji sneered at the queen and the ill-intentioned grandmother, "Since that's the case, then let's ask the emperor to come up and find out about this matter." ”

"You—" The queen was about to refuse, when she heard a message from the minions that the emperor was coming. The queen's expression flashed a trace of panic, and she saw the emperor coming over from a distance, just like changing her face, her originally indifferent face immediately cried, ran towards the emperor, and suddenly knelt down on her legs in front of the emperor, "Your Majesty, the concubine is guilty, the concubine can't see the night pearl that the emperor gave to the concubine, the concubine is really sad, I'm sorry for the emperor!" The queen cried with grief, and several times she was so choked up that she couldn't even speak.

Before the emperor could react, Murong Xuanji also walked out of the room, walked behind the queen and glanced at Xuanyuan Hao, who looked anxious, shook his head at him with a smile, and told him that he was fine, and then knelt down to greet the emperor without hurrying, "Daughter-in-law Murong Xuanji greets her father, long live your father!" ”

"Get up, I heard that the Nine Emperor Princesses were invited by the queen, so I came over to see how I saw the queen crying and crying, and what kind of body was seen by others." The emperor glanced at the queen and said with some displeasure.

The queen didn't expect that the emperor not only didn't care about herself, but was blamed by the emperor, and she was secretly unhappy in her heart, so she slowly got up with the support of her grandmother, wiped the tears on her face with a handkerchief and said aggrievedly: "The concubines are a little bored in the palace, so I invite the nine princesses to accompany the concubines, and leave the nine princesses to have dinner together, the concubines saw that it was late, and the palace door was closed, so I left the nine princesses to rest in my palace for the night, but in the morning the concubines told the concubines, saying that the night pearl that the emperor gave to the concubines was gone, It was a gift from the emperor to the concubine, but now it is gone, and the concubine really has no face to see the emperor. Saying that, the queen cried sadly again.

"Father, someone dares to boldly steal her things in the queen mother's palace, and this thing was given by the father, it is really bold. Please ask my father to investigate strictly, and I must not let this matter go unchecked. Xuanyuan Che saw the queen's appearance, although he didn't know whether the matter was true or not, but he knew that this matter was not good for Xuanyuan Hao, so he took the opportunity to say.

The emperor glanced at Xuanyuan Che sternly, and said expressionlessly: "Talk to me in the house." The emperor and the queen and others walked into the queen's room together, closed the door, and the emperor said with a stern face: "What the queen just now meant was that she suspected that the Nine Emperor Princesses had stolen the night pearl. ”

The queen just lowered her head and didn't speak, and the meaning was self-evident. And the grandmother beside the queen suddenly knelt in front of the emperor at this time and said boldly: "Your Majesty, the slave maid has something to say, yesterday the queen and the Nine Emperor Princesses had a very happy conversation, the queen talked about the night pearl that the emperor gave her, and asked the slave to take it to the Nine Emperor Princesses, at that time the Nine Emperor Princesses also said that this night pearl is beautiful and very like, this morning, the slave maid came in to clean up the house, and found that the night pearl was gone. ”

After listening to Mama's story, the emperor looked at Murong Xuanji, saw that her face was calm, and there was no panic, and he believed in her innocence, but he still asked sternly: "Nine Emperor Princesses, are Mama's words true, have you taken the queen's night pearl." ”

"Back to my father's words, yesterday the queen did take out the night pearl to show her daughter-in-law, and the daughter-in-law did praise the night pearl, but the daughter-in-law definitely did not take the queen's night pearl, and the daughter-in-law did not have a reason to take away the night pearl."

"Good things, everyone wants to have them for themselves, the night pearl that the emperor gave to the palace is only three in the entire Beiming Kingdom, and it is not surprising that you want to have it." The queen first said sternly, and then softened her attitude and said to Murong Xuanji: "If the Nine Emperor Princesses like that night pearl, as long as the emperor agrees, the concubines are willing to cut their love, why should the Nine Emperor Princesses take it without telling them?" ”

The corners of Murong Xuanji's mouth rose slightly, and she looked at the queen with a shuddering smile and said, "Empress, as the mother of a country, you assert that I stole your things without any evidence, wouldn't it be a joke to say it." ”

The queen was a little speechless for a while when Murong Xuanji said this, glanced at the emperor, and found that the emperor seemed to have some intention of opening up, knowing that the emperor now had doubts about his accusations, in order to prevent the emperor from misunderstanding herself, the queen immediately cried again.

At this time, Mama saw the queen crying sadly, and said with some grievances for her master, "Nine Emperor Princesses, in the queen's palace, except for you, everyone who has been in this palace for many years, is loyal to the queen. ”

"Then Mama means that I, an outsider, am suspected of stealing." Murong Xuanji snorted coldly and asked sternly: "I am the dignified concubine of the Nine Emperors, the daughter of the Great General King, with such a noble status, do you think I will let myself act as a villain for the sake of a night pearl?" ”

"The heart is separated from the belly. As the so-called prince violates the law, he is guilty of the same crime as the common people, and the prince will break the law, not to mention a small princess. "Xuanyuan Che left the corporal on the side.

"I believe Xuanji is innocent." Xuanyuan Hao made his position clear.

"Okay, don't argue, this palace doesn't want to hurt the family's harmony for a night pearl and make the emperor embarrassed." The queen opened her mouth at the right time, walked up to Murong Xuanji and said in a serious voice: "Nine Emperor Princesses, as long as you are willing to hand over that night pearl, this palace can intercede with the emperor and forgive you for your innocence." ”

Nalan Shan looked at Murong Xuanji with a helpless face, but in her heart, she was ten thousand.

The more Xuanyuan Hao listened, the more angry he became, and just as he wanted to speak, he saw Murong Xuanji shaking his head at him calmly, knowing that she didn't want to let herself stand out for her, and knew that she had a way to solve it, so he couldn't help but open his mouth and let her solve it herself.

Murong Xuanji smiled at Xuanyuan Hao, thanked him for his understanding, and then turned his head to look at the queen with sharp eyes: "Empress, you said that there are three of these night pearls, one of which was given to you by the emperor three years ago, so do you know where the other two are?" ”

The queen looked at Murong Xuanji a little nervously, not knowing what she wanted to say when she said this.

Murong Xuanji sneered and looked at the queen, "One of them was given to the queen mother first, and the rest of the moment was given to me on the day I married the Nine Emperor Princes, and now I am in the Nine Emperor Princes' Mansion, you said, I already have an identical night pearl, so why do I need your night pearl?" ”

"You, you have the pearl of the night?" The queen looked at Murong Xuanji in disbelief, seeing the coldness on her face, she looked at the emperor with some trembling all over her body, and found that the emperor was looking at her indifferently, she panicked, her legs suddenly weakened, and she staggered back a few steps, but fortunately, Mama helped her in time.

"Father, the daughter-in-law entered the palace at the behest of the queen, but she didn't expect to be misunderstood to steal things, and the daughter-in-law felt deeply wronged, and asked the father to ask for an explanation for the daughter-in-law." Saying that, Murong Xuanji's tears fell one by one, and he looked weak and wronged.

"Queen!" The emperor slapped the table angrily and looked at the queen with an unforgivable expression, "As the mother of a country, you actually did such a thing." ”

"Your Majesty, the concubine's night pearl is indeed gone." The queen is still making her final quibble.

"The thing is missing, and it can't be proved that it was stolen by Xuanji, the queen can not investigate the matter in time, and she also makes such a presumptuous judgment to slander Xuanji, which is unfair to Xuanji, and it also seems that the queen is unfair, which will only make people talk behind their backs." Xuanyuan Hao pointed at the queen with righteous words.

"Presumptuous!" Although the queen was at a loss, she was very embarrassed by Xuanyuan Hao's words, and pointed at Xuanyuan Hao angrily and said: "What position do you have to accuse this palace, this is the dormitory of this palace, how can you be presumptuous here." ”

"Queen, what else do you have to say about this?" The emperor stood up angrily and asked the queen, "Do you still think that the Nine Emperor Princesses stole your night pearl?" ”

The queen lowered her head and was silent, the room became silent for a while, and now everyone was standing on Murong Xuanji's side, if she was still arguing at this time, she would only let herself fall behind.

"Queen, I won't worry about you framing Xuanji today, but I will make it clear in front of my father, Xuanji is my wife, I unconditionally believe in her and support her in everything she says and does, I don't allow anyone to hurt her, if someone hurts her, I will fight for my life." Xuanyuan Hao sternly warned the queen.

The queen moved her lips, and although she was angry, she still swallowed the anger in her heart.

"Empress, Xuanji is not only the wife of the Nine Emperor Princes, but also a member of our Murong family, today you said that Xuanji stole your things, not only to lose the face of the Nine Emperor Princes, but also to insult the people of our Murong family." As the eldest son of the Murong family, Murong Xilang also looked at the queen with a stern face, which made the queen's face even more ugly.

"Father, the truth of this theft case has surfaced, Xuanji is innocent, and we don't want to entangle ourselves here, so my son will retire with Xuanji first." Xuanyuan Hao took Murong Xuanji's hand and left the queen's palace angrily, not even caring about asking for peace.

Murong Xilang saw Xuanyuan Hao leave with Murong Xuanji, and said to the queen with an expressionless face: "Empress, Xuanji is now a member of the Nine Emperors' Mansion, since the Nine Emperors will no longer pursue it, then our Murong family will not ask about this matter again, but if someone dares to be unfavorable to Xuanji in the future, even if they gamble on our general's palace, everyone in the palace will not give up." ”

After leaving an audible and daunting warning, Murong Xilang and the other two sons of the Murong family, Murong Xijun and Murong Xijie, endured the uncomplaining in their hearts, did not forget the courtesy of the monarch and ministers, and politely said goodbye and left. R638
