Chapter Forty-Seven: The Gentleman
"Spread the decree, Xuanye Hou's concubine Lu, enter the palace to meet you. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info" The father-in-law who passed the decree received the decree and handed it over, "Princess, please." ”
Hua Qiao and Lu Qi both looked at Lu Zhaojin worriedly, but they couldn't speak at the moment.
"The second master is not here, so you can stay at home." Lu Zhaojin nodded slightly at the two maids, and followed his father-in-law into the carriage to enter the palace.
I knew that the emperor would be interested in her, but I didn't expect that he would solemnly make a will.
It's not an oracle, let alone an excuse for the people of the harem, but the emperor's holy decree.
This made Lu Zhaojin a little "flattered", it seems that the five princes are not only difficult, but also deceitful and eloquent, and they can pull her in when they are at a disadvantage.
Lu Zhaojin took a few deep breaths and sat upright in the carriage, this was the first time in her previous life and this life, face Jun.
Facing the one who ordered the slaughter of her people in her previous life, the monarch.
The girl got out of the carriage, she was a female dependent, and she had to enter through the north palace gate and walk through the entire harem to get close to the main hall of the Qianxiang Palace where the emperor was located.
However, she is just a five-grade woman, who does not meet the regulations and cannot take a soft sedan chair in the palace.
Lu Zhaojin's face did not change, and he followed his father-in-law on foot, and his calves were a little sore.
The long and narrow vermilion road, the wide and majestic palace gates are dizzy, as if walking in the body of a hideous and terrifying monster, grinding off people's confidence little by little, making people surrender from the bottom of their hearts and fear the royal family.
Bypassing the Jinyu Belt Bridge, I finally walked around the towering and majestic palace from the back and walked to the open square in front of the palace.
In the middle of the smooth white marble carved nine teeth and claws of the coiling dragon, the girl carried the corner of the skirt up the jade steps, passing by the prince who came out of the palace.
Xia Chengxian went down, but suddenly turned around, "The princess." ”
"Yes, Your Highness." The girl turned around, greeted with her eyebrows down, and when she looked up, she could see that the prince's face was not good.
What he was most worried about still happened, the emperor summoned Lu Zhaojin, and at this time, he tied her to the same boat as himself.
After that, it was smooth sailing, but if the fifth brother was given a chance to turn over, he was afraid that Lu Zhaojin would suffer.
"If Your Highness is fine, Zhaojin will enter the palace first." Her face was flat, not afraid of nervousness or complaining.
Xia Chengxian only felt a sudden twitch in a corner of his heart, and the ghost walked back and stood at her level, "I didn't want to ......"
"Your Highness said with a smile," the girl raised her head: "My Lu family is by no means a person who can be slaughtered. ”
The prince frowned and swallowed back his apologetic words.
Lu Zhaojin wants to protect the Lu family, where is he, and only he is here stupidly trying to protect her......
Well? The prince was startled by himself, and looked at the girl's back and gradually clenched his fists.
He is like this, what about the fifth brother?
The fifth brother didn't want his father to notice Lu Zhaojin, whether he was like him, he wanted to keep her.
……
"Lu, knock to see Your Majesty." A set of etiquette is comprehensive.
Lu Zhaojin once specially invited the old lady in the palace to study in order to marry into the Ye family's official court, and it was not in vain to have this time.
"Lu." The emperor's deep voice came from the hall, and Lu Zhaojin finally couldn't help but tense his body.
It was not the strong hatred for the prince that day, nor the disgust and disgust of Chen Jinhuan and others, but the fear of the coercion of a superior who really controlled her life and death.
"It turns out that you are also afraid." A cold voice rang out, like a silky swirling snake around her neck and hissing in her ears.
The girl visibly shook her head with the naked eye, turned her head coldly to look at the serious Fifth Prince kneeling behind her, and turned back suspiciously.
It seems that the emperor did not hear the words just now.
"Don't be nervous, you have to behave, I'm waiting for you to surprise me."
The silky sound of a snake entered her ears, but only she could hear the empty hall.
What a witch!
Lu Zhaojin gritted his teeth secretly, his eyes were closed, and he saw that the space spring water suddenly clanged, and a splash of water flicked, and the cool touch in his neck and ears suddenly disappeared.
Everything happened between the lightning and flint, and an undetectable fire point popped out of Lu Zhaojin's ears and dissipated into the air.
The fifth prince's eyes turned sharply, and he snorted imperceptibly, swallowing a mouthful of blood on the tip of his tongue.
"Lu, are you guilty?" The majestic man in the temple spoke again.
The girl was no longer nervous this time, raised her head proudly, and responded crisply: "Please show your majesty." ”
The fifth prince raised the corners of his lips imperceptibly, and then took out his usual feminine and vicious voice: "Framing the prince, do you still know that the crime is unforgivable?" ”
The emperor did not speak.
He summoned Lu Zhaojin to listen to the court arguments between the Lu family and the five princes.
The human and physical evidence of this matter can be faked, but the person who discovers the conspiracy cannot do so.
The Lu family is a woman, but she can distinguish the truth from the false in a treacherous situation, and even testify in court, he wants to see what kind of woman she is.
"Whether it is framed or not, His Highness does not know it." The girl turned to look at him, her chin slightly raised with a hint of pride.
"Huh." The fifth prince sneered, and the girl had already spoken: "The Deng mother and son who were accidentally rescued by the Lu family have confirmed that Deng Wei personally said that it is very dangerous to have a relationship with a nobleman, so he sent her mother and son to escape, and this nobleman has also confirmed that it is Your Highness." ”
"Joke!" The fifth prince snorted coldly: "Deng's mother and son are favored by you first, how do you hint, what will they naturally say, if this is also evidence, then the father and the son will go to find a list of people to prove the innocence of the son!" ”
The emperor glanced at him coldly and shouted, "Bastard! ”
The five princes' dead pigs are not afraid of boiling water and laughing, but they really have a bit of confidence, which makes the emperor even more indistinguishable.
"Rise up and speak."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Lu Zhaojin's heart twitched, and he stood up with his support on the ground, his face was not very good-looking.
The five princes are really difficult.
Whether he is afraid of weak-heartedness or stubborn, righteous words will make the emperor suspicious, suspecting that he has a ghost in his heart.
But his arrogant and arrogant attitude everywhere is not abnormal at all, as if he knows that he is wronged, and he will only mislead the emperor to suspect the prince.
Suspecting that this is a bureau set up by the prince to get rid of his younger brother.
In this kind of situation where the palms and backs of the hands are all meat, especially the guilty ones are extremely favored, the emperor hesitates, and it becomes more and more unfavorable to Lu Zhaojin.
"Your Majesty, my Lu family has never had any books to heal livestock, let alone any recipes for strengthening horses, and Lord He, who got the horse side from Cai Zhongtang, found His Royal Highness when He Gongzi fell into a life lawsuit, which is also a fact."
"Your Majesty, you should be able to identify the subordinates." Lu Zhaojin's self-questioning testimony was clearly written, and the emperor could see it clearly.
The corresponding human and physical evidence can be arraigned, and it only depends on how the emperor will deal with this shocking case.
"Joke, everyone in the world knows that He Ting dedicated Ma Fang to the second brother, and the second brother refused to help him, so he came to beg me, who knew that it was a plan. Father! The fifth prince glared, and Lu Zhaojin turned to the palace: "The son is wronged!" This is obviously a well-designed overall situation, and the subordinates will not accept it unless they can come up with real evidence! ”
"I can only hate that Deng Wei is dead, otherwise, Erchen is innocent!" The fifth prince said coldly.
This is a **** naked provocation.
Lu Zhaojin, no matter how sharp you are, without Deng Wei's evidence, it is useless.
He has been favored for twenty-three years, and even if this matter makes his father suspicious, he will never deal with him without sufficient evidence.
If you want to blame, blame Deng Wei for being incompetent and not leaving you useful evidence.
"Fifth prince, is this true?" The girl smiled slyly, which made the fifth prince suddenly startled.
Snare! (To be continued.) )
