The earth-shattering sentence was like a stone thrown into the lake in the Jinluan Palace, which stirred up thousands of waves. I saw the palace maid behind me, the little figure was upright and straight, and it seemed to have a special emotion in his eyes, who was it not Xuan Pei?

Everyone looked at Xuan Pei in amazement, this thirteen princes in the court almost to the point that no one cares, if Xuan Lang is just incompetent, there is a virtuous concubine above to protect him, and he will not be bullied. The thirteenth prince Xuanpei is just a lowly palace maid, and now that his biological mother has died, he has reached the point where no one cares about him in the palace, if he can't mention it, I'm afraid no one will remember that there is such a person in the palace.

Xuan Pei may have dressed up a little bit today, and found a lotus blue brocade robe, the lotus blue is solemn, and now Xuan Pei is only an eight or nine-year-old boy in the end, and he is still a little weird when he wears it. And although the robe looks like the brocade is also considered to be the upper layer, I am afraid that it is also a style from many years ago, and it is not suitable at a glance.

But even so, the small figure walked around, not tall, but it had its own calm and calm. Rao is emperor couldn't help but flash a trace of surprise in his eyes, all said that a person's behavior and demeanor are considerable, Xuan Pei appeared so abruptly in the eyes of everyone, but he was not the inferior prince who was a cowardly concubine in everyone's minds, but had a kind of bearing, and even everyone had an illusion that over time, this prince would definitely not be in the pool. Now at a young age, he already has some restraint and calmness, although the Tian family has unique conditions, but the announcement of the departure back then was nothing more than that.

Xuan Pei walked to the Jinluan Palace, knelt down beside Jiang Ruan with the corner of his robe, and said, "Father, the sons can testify that the county lord of Heyi was not killed by the county lord of Hong'an!" ”

Jiang Ruan looked at the young man in front of him in a daze, looking at it closely, unlike the bullied child on the previous side, Xuan Pei seemed to be a different person, with a pretended calm old man on his face, but it was extremely unfamiliar.

Xuan Pei was timid by himself, and because of his biological mother, he was also bullied in the palace. In her previous life, she also entered the palace at this time, and it was when she met Xuan Pei who was bullied, and she comforted her a few words at that time, and then somehow it reached the ears of the emperor, and handed Xuan Pei over to her to raise.

In her previous life, she and Xuan Pei depended on each other in the palace, Xuan Pei was the most sensible child she had ever seen, just a good child, but he could only be trapped in the deep palace like her, and Xuan Pei didn't even have the opportunity to show his skills in the court like other princes. And before Xuan Pei met her, he was raised by people with ulterior motives in the deep palace, although he was eight or nine years old, his mind was no different from that of a five or six-year-old child.

Now this child is abnormal, where is there still the obsession of the previous life in his eyes, it is clearly clear. Xuan Pei was born well, and in his last life, he was favored by Li Dong because he was extremely beautiful, and at this moment, the children's complexions are all superior, and kneeling with Jiang Ruan will make everyone in the Jinluan Hall feel in a trance, only to feel that the appearance and demeanor of these two people are seventy percent similar, and when I think about it, I feel that I think too much.

Xuan Lang and Xuan Li's eyes changed slightly, but Xuan Pei's appearance was something that neither of them expected, although Xuan Pei was not favored, he was nominally the same prince as them. In Xuan Li's eyes, Xuan Pei was not even an ant, and his name was rarely heard in the deep palace. Now that he is immature and has been raised since childhood, there is nothing to be afraid of. Suddenly appeared today, if it was said that he would speak for Jiang Ruan, Xuan Li was very shocked, and Xuan Pei's demeanor at this moment made Xuan Li deeply uneasy.

The emperor looked at Xuan Pei with a complicated expression, he didn't pay attention to this son at all, he couldn't remember how many princes had died over the years, and there was never a shortage of white bones buried in the deep palace. Xu is God's punishment for him, among these sons, if there are some talents, they are all wolf ambitions, or they are simply incompetent, such as the prince, with a shallow heart, if he didn't protect him secretly, I am afraid that he would have already become a victim of other people's power struggles.

Xuan Pei's mother, the emperor, can't remember clearly, and in the deep palace, the prince from a humble background is dispensable to the emperor, and he has never cared about it. When I saw Xuanpei at first glance today, I didn't know what it was like to be in my heart.

This young man is young and jade, his facial features are extremely beautiful, because he has lived in the deep palace for a long time, his complexion seems too fair, but because of his young age, he does not feel pale and haggard, but he is as moving as a crystal doll. He inherited the natural goodness of the royal family, and he has a very good understanding of this goodness. Even if I haven't come out to see people for so many years, I don't know how it has been, but I don't let that naturally noble demeanor be damaged.

What's more, since he walked in, he looked directly into the eyes of the emperor, his voice was respectful but not humble, his attitude was calm but not conceited, where he looked like an eight or nine-year-old child, and it was almost the same as a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy.

The emperor was suddenly shocked to realize that he had ignored a potentially outstanding prince for so many years.

Xiao Shao frowned slightly, he could see clearly that Jiang Ruan's gaze at Xuan Pei was a little unusual, although it was tried his best to cover it up, it still leaked a point or two. He has a brocade guard in the palace, and naturally he has heard about the situation of the thirteen princes, how can an obsessed child who has been raised and abolished suddenly change overnight. A while ago, Jiang Ruan stepped in to help Xuan Pei, and later heard from Jinyiwei about the situation, at that time, Xuan Pei was still a cowardly prince who was bullied by the palace maid, why did he act so properly today, and judged the two of them. Looking at the palace maid and eunuch who came with Xuan Pei just now, her behavior was proper, there was no trace of transgression, and she was clearly sincere in her respect for her master.

I thought that Xuan Pei's appearance was Jiang Ruan's arrangement, but at this moment, it seemed to be different, and Jiang Ruan's expression was obviously unaware. What exactly does this Thirteen Princes mean?

Xiao Shao's eyes paused, I don't know if it was his illusion, he always felt that Xuan Pei's actions and demeanor were somewhat similar to Jiang Ruan's, almost the same.

The emperor pondered for a long time before he slowly spoke: "Oh, how are you going to testify? ”

"At the time of the incident that day, Erchen was also in Mufeng Pavilion, but he saw with his own eyes, and the county lord of Heyi was dragged to the chair by two palace maids, at first Erchen thought they were joking, and then the lord of Hong'an came, and the son saw her come forward to ask, and the county lord of Heyi fell down. At that time, the incident happened suddenly, and Erchen was confused, so he secretly went back while no one was paying attention. Later, I heard the news that the lord of Hong'an was imprisoned, and the sons thought about it, and always felt that something was wrong, although they were scared in their hearts, they couldn't watch the lord of Hong'an being slandered, and the sons were cowardly. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone gasped, what did the thirteen princes mean, he could testify at the scene, and the fourth prince Xuan Lang also said that he had seen it with his own eyes. Xuan Pei's words are obviously accusing Xuan Lang of lying!

Xuan Lang's face changed a few times, and he naturally knew that this matter was very serious, since Xuan Pei said this, this trip to the troubled waters, he had to go if he didn't go, and in any case, Xuan Pei's words came out, first of all, he aroused the emperor's suspicion.

Who is Xuan Pei? Now he is only an eight or nine-year-old child, no matter how calm he behaves, his age is irrefutable. People would think that a child doesn't have to lie, but he's different.

Without waiting for Xuan Lang to open his mouth to excuse himself, Concubine Shu said impatiently: "Do you know what Lu Dao is talking about?" The Fourth Highness has also seen it with his own eyes, and if you say that, aren't you wronging the Fourth Highness? Concubine Shu already hated Xuan Pei in her heart, but a lowly palace maid colluded with Jiang Ruan to excuse him. Since this is the case, pull this thirteen princes into the water together and make him pay for what he has done!

Empress Dowager Yide looked at Xuan Pei puzzled, she was also surprised when she saw Xuan Pei, thinking that it was Xiao Shao's arrangement. I also expected when Xiao Shao had a relationship with Xuan Pei, but later saw that Xuan Pei's words were clear, not like the discussion in the palace, and I felt a little comforted in my heart. She can trust Xiao Shao's character, since Xuan Pei is the person selected by Xiao Shao, it is naturally not bad, and among these princes, a person with some talent and no ambition is really rare.

When she arrived, Empress Dowager Yide glanced at Concubine Shu lightly and said, "The matter hasn't been clarified yet, Concubine Shu, the mourning family sees that you have overstepped." ”

Concubine Shu didn't dare to offend the Empress Dowager Yide, so she was unwillingly silent, but she was thinking about how to pull Xuan Pei into the water together.

The emperor glanced at Xuan Pei, and although he didn't like him to excuse Jiang Ruan, he still asked out loud: "Oh, do you know that what the fourth brother said is not the same as you." ”

"Back to my father, what did the fourth brother say that the retainers didn't know what to do, but the retainers saw that when the palace maid helped the lord of Heyi to Mufeng Pavilion, the fourth brother was also there. Erchen also heard what the fourth brother said to the lord of Hong'an later. Xuan Pei's voice is clear, different from the gloom of an adult man, and has a transparent and unique youthful vitality, which makes people's hearts clear when they listen to it, and they only feel that what he says seems to be convincing.

Xuan Lang clenched his fists and only heard the emperor say: "What words?" ”

Jiang Ruan glanced at Xuan Pei. At this time, she was also a little unsure whether Xuan Pei was there that day, for her, Xuan Pei's appearance today was too unbelievable. It was precisely because of Xuan Pei's sudden appearance that the matter that made her confess to Huijue unable to continue. Xuan Pei should not have been there that day, and what made her even more puzzled was why in just a few days, Xuan Pei seemed to be a different person, what happened in it.

"Erchen heard the fourth brother say to the county lord of Hong'an, when the fourth brother mentions marriage in front of the imperial grandmother, please don't refuse the county lord of Hong'an, otherwise, the county lord of Hong'an will not be able to escape the big crime of killing his head." Xuan Pei said loudly.

As soon as these words came out, the Jinluan Hall fell silent, and even the sound of a needle falling on the ground could be heard.

Xuan Lang's face suddenly turned snow-white, and he actually glanced at Xuan Li's expression for the first time.

Jiang Ruan was also stunned, and then laughed in his heart, it seems that Xuan Pei must have not been to any storm pavilion that day. Xuan Pei's words can be said to be not clever, as soon as the words fell, not only the emperor's expression changed slightly, but even Xuan Li's expression was not so natural.

Xuan Lang was originally guilty of murder for the sake of Xuanli, and the ultimate goal was just to want Jiang Ruan to marry into Xuanli's mansion. But Xuan Pei's words revealed another meaning, Xuan Lang's words were that he wanted to marry Jiang Ruan. Xuanli is lenient on the surface, but in fact he is suspicious, how can he not suspect that Xuan Langyang is disobedient, on the surface he is doing things according to his intentions, but in fact he has a different approach. Although Xuan Lang is incompetent, there is also a virtuous concubine above, and now that Chen Guifei has lost power, Xuan Lang may not have a chance to climb up again. If Jiang Ruan marries Xuan Lang, the benefits that can be brought to Xuan Lang can also be brought to Xuan Lang.

If Xuan Lang really has other thoughts, it is not impossible.

Xuan Li's eyes flashed slightly, but he was not as calm as Fang Cai, Xuan Lang had been planning big things with him for many years, and he knew what he was thinking in Xuan Xuan. For a while, he was very angry about Xuan Pei's divisive plan, but he couldn't explain it to Xuan Li in front of everyone's eyes, so he was anxious, so he also strode to the hall and knelt down to the emperor with a "plop".

"Father and Emperor Mingjian, the son is wronged!" Xuan Lang's voice was extremely painful, he was a person who was used to cheating, his face was really a little dazed, and his gaze at Xuan Pei was also very sad and angry, and he said indignantly: "Thirteenth brother, you and I are both siblings, who are you instructed to frame me?" Now that you are still young, do not want to fall into the way of others. ”

The meaning of his words was to target Jiang Ruan, but he successfully took advantage of the emperor's suspicion of Jiang Ruan. Xuan Pei is young now, and he is really very likely to be bewitched, and all the officials looked at Jiang Ruan, Jiang Ruan's expression was unmoved, but he was a little troubled in his heart.

What exactly does Xuan Pei want to do? She didn't want Xuan Pei to be involved in this matter, but Xuan Pei's various performances today have already attracted the attention of many people in the DPRK and China. For example, Xuan Li will definitely notice Xuan Pei's abnormality. It may not be a good thing for Xuan Pei to be in the limelight today, now he has no ability to protect himself, and he can predict that once today, Xuan Pei's status in the court should be better than before, and similarly, his troubles will follow.

For a mother, it is natural to protect her children, Jiang Ruan is reluctant to let Xuan Pei be involved, but now that things have developed to the point in front of them, no one expected it, and for a while, I don't know how Lu Dao ended.

"What the son said is true, and I hope that my father will know it." Xuan Pei didn't pay attention to Xuan Lang's words, but his tone was as stubborn as ever.

The emperor looked at Xuan Pei with deep eyes, and said in a deep voice: "You two have their own opinions, and there must be people who lie. Thirteen, even if you testify, the county lord of Hong'an cannot get away from this matter. ”

Even with Xuan Pei's testimony, the two sides insisted on their own words, but they still could not prove Jiang Ruan's innocence. The scene can't end yet.

Who knew that Xuan Pei shook his head and said: "No, there is not only one witness for Erchen, but also one person who can testify for the lord of Hong'an." ”

The whole hall was in an uproar, and there was one more person?

"Oh? Who else? The Emperor asked.

"And the sons." In the silence, a person suddenly spoke, and the prince suddenly raised his lips and smiled, and stood up from among the hundred officials.

The queen and the Empress Dowager Yide stared at the same time, Xuan Li's clenched fists trembled slightly, and Xuan Lang looked at the prince in disbelief.

The prince glanced at Jiang Ruan meaningfully, walked to Xuan Pei's side, and knelt down with the corner of his robe, and the three of them knelt side by side. The crown prince said to the emperor: "Back to my father, what the thirteenth brother said is true, because the ministers were also present that day. ”

Jiang Ruan frowned, Xuan Pei was not on the scene that day, and the prince's words could be described as nonsense. She told Xiao Shao not to interfere in this matter, and the prince's sudden appearance was definitely not Xiao Shao's intention. Even if the people in the General's Mansion want to save her, they will not take the path of the prince, so it should not be the work of the people in the General's Mansion. Then, this matter is a little strange, Jiang Ruan glanced at Xuan Pei, and a thought suddenly flashed in his heart, could it be Xuan Pei?

Before the emperor could speak, Concubine Shu finally couldn't help it, and shouted again: "Prince, what are you talking about?" Are you also bewitched? ”

The queen glanced at Concubine Shu coldly and said, "Concubine Shu, be cautious." "Although the queen is in the harem, when the emperor is present, there is always a few positions. On weekdays, she is laissez-faire about the affairs of the harem, but once it is related to the prince, she has to raise her spirit. Concubine Shu wants to slander and frame other people, she doesn't care, when it comes to the prince, she can't sit idly by.

"Shut up." The emperor was also angry at Concubine Shu's actions, and he was very tolerant of her when he sympathized with her loss of his beloved daughter, but now she is really becoming more and more unpleasant. However, the prince suddenly came out to speak for Jiang Ruan, and he still had some doubts in his heart. This son has no brains and is useless, and is often led by the nose, but he is still arrogant and often does some stupid things. It is even less likely to take the initiative to stand up and help others. Today's attitude is obviously to speak for Jiang Ruan, could it be that Jiang Ruan still has something to do with the prince? A Xuan Pei already made him very puzzled, why did the prince intervene.

The palace had not heard of any dealings between the crown prince and Jiang Ruan, and the emperor couldn't help but set his eyes on Xiao Shao. Xiao Shao himself had already mentioned that he wanted to marry Jiang Ruan, but Jiang Ruan was sent to the prison of the Criminal Department, but he didn't make any moves. The emperor was a little depressed when he arrived.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came out to testify, and the two princes both spoke for Jiang Ruan, and the situation suddenly changed again.

Xuan Lang was a little anxious in his heart, what should have been foolproof today was killed halfway to kill a prince and Xuan Pei, and the most important thing is that since Xuan Pei's words, Xuan Li's eyes have changed when he looks at him, and he has no intention of speaking for him. Once the seeds of doubt are planted, they will eventually grow into an invincible tumor, and even more so for a person like Xuanli who is suspicious by nature.

He kowtowed several times towards the emperor's "dong dong" in a row: "Father, what the son said is true, the son does not dare to deceive the father, the father is clear!" ”

The prince glanced at Xuan Lang carelessly, and said, "Fourth brother, what are you talking about, could it be that this palace and the thirteenth brother colluded to frame you together?" ”

There are hundreds of officials in the court who are incomprehensible to look at them, the prince and Xuan Lang have been friends since they came, but now this situation is turning against each other?

Xuan Lang knew very well that since he didn't know what Jiang Ruan said to the prince last time, the prince deliberately distanced himself from him, and even belittled her for trouble with him. Xuan Lang knew that this matter must be related to Jiang Ruan, and because of this matter, Xuan Lang always had a little fear of Jiang Ruan. At this moment, the prince left no room for suppression, and Concubine Xian was not here today, Xuan Li couldn't make a sound, and he could only grit his teeth and bear it himself.

The crown prince said to the emperor: "On that day, Erchen met the thirteenth brother on the road, and he arrived at the Mufeng Pavilion on a whim, and he didn't want to see the scene that the thirteenth brother said. Erchen was also extremely scared at the time, but now that he saw that the thirteenth brother was still so young, he dared to come out to testify, and if Erchen still wanted to be a turtle with a shrunken head, he was not worthy of being the son of his father, so he came out to testify for the lord of Hong'an. ”

His nonsense came out of his mouth, and he looked like a fool, and all the officials had seen the prince's rules and regulations, and they were all speechless for a while.

The emperor held back a breath of anger and was about to speak, when he heard the prince say again: "However, there are many suspicious points in this case, so Erchen also brought a person to help, with the help of this person, it is not difficult to solve this case satisfactorily." ”

"Who?" The Emperor asked in a deep voice.

"Someone," the prince said in a loud voice, "Bring the Jinling Holy Hand Xia Divine Doctor up—"

Seeing the eunuch announcing the voice, a person slowly walked from outside the hall, wearing a refreshing blue cloth robe, a young appearance in his early twenties, a pleasing baby face, and a satchel around his waist, knelt down to the emperor in the hall, and said: "The grass people Xia Qing knocked on His Majesty." ”

Jinling Holy Hand Xia Qing, everyone gasped again. This person has been in the palace for generations, but Xia Qing is a restless person in Xia Qing's generation, he looks down on the imperial doctors' treatment methods, and his mind is full of novel ideas, but the masters of the palace doctors are all nobles, and if he accidentally treats someone to death, he will lose his head, how can he tolerate Xia Qing's novel, never-before-heard of treatment methods.

Xia Qing felt that the longer he stayed in the palace, the more he was constrained, so he said goodbye to his family and traveled by himself, but he didn't know that he later worshiped Mount Canaan, studied under Mr. Baqi, and became a disciple of Mr. Baqi.

Now Xia is young and young, but everyone in the Dajin Dynasty knows his name. Despite this, when the Imperial Medical Department invited him to come again, Xia Qing politely declined. He traveled north and south of the river, and this was the first time he entered the palace after he became famous.

No one thought that the prince would invite Xia Qing, and no one thought that Xia Qing would have a relationship with the prince. Now that Xia Qing is here, what do you want to do?

The prince smiled when he saw everyone's stunned appearance: "You don't have to wonder, this palace thinks that He Yi's death is really strange, even the corpse is probably a little wrong, it just so happens that Doctor Xia is an old friend of this palace, and this palace invited him to take a look at He Yi's corpse," After a pause, he said slowly: "I don't know if I don't see it, I don't know what to do, and when I look at it, I found something amazing." ”

Suddenly, I felt that the prince was inexplicably cute, and the male N Xia Xiaoshen Doctor was online~
