Mo Ziyuan frowned slightly, half of his sleepiness was gone, and his voice returned to normal: "Lan Xiang, come in and wait for the mother to change clothes." ”

Lan Xiang and Pan Xiang should have come in, and Pan Chun walked up to Yuan Ting and bowed slightly, and said with a smile: "This little Niangniang is also asleep, and I ask the Yuan guards to be considerate and wait for Niang Niang to put on a dress." ”

Yuan Ting immediately hugged his fists and replied: "It should be, Miss Panchun is polite." ”

And Lan Xiang and Pan Xiang quickly put on a dress for Xu Zigui, and were about to comb Xu Zigui's hair, but Xu Zigui raised his hand to interrupt them: "Can't delay too long, this Ziyuexi should be done, now go and call Yuan Ting and them in." ”

Lan Xiang should have walked out in a hurry, Xu Zigui held Mo Ziyuan's hand nervously, and his breathing was already a little unstable.

After all, if this kind of thing is not done well, it will be self-defeating, and when the time comes, the matter of framing the palace concubine will be deducted, even if Xu Zigui earns the trust of the emperor is not what she calls it, Lan Xiang and they will have to take the blame for Xu Zigui. If this is the case, Xu Zigui will have to shed his skin even if he doesn't die.

Mo Ziyuan patted the back of Xu Zigui's hand and comforted him with a smile: "It's okay, isn't it for me, it's fine." ”

Xu Zigui nodded slightly, shook Mo Ziyuan's hand, and was about to say something more when he heard Lan Xiang's voice: "Yuan Guard, please." ”

Xu Zigui immediately let go of Mo Ziyuan's hand, stood up, and waited for Yuan Ting to come in.

"Your Highness, Mother." Yuan Ting took a few people into the main hall and blessed the two of them, and said, "Offended." ”

He waved his hand and motioned for the others to search.

Mo Ziyuan frowned and asked, "But the assassin is here?" ”

Yuan Ting smiled and said, "Your Highness doesn't need to worry, it's not an assassin. ”

After that, he looked at Xu Zigui and Mo Ziyuan, and sighed: "Isn't it in full swing these days that the matter of Emperor Hui's return to find Emperor De's concubine is in full swing......

As he spoke, he looked at Xu Zigui quietly, he had been in the harem for a long time, and some things in the palace Yuan Ting was also clear in his heart, although he was frightened by the female ghost today, but now that he thinks about it, most of the female ghost is the harem which lady sent someone to scare the emperor and concubine. In this harem, the one who has a direct conflict of interest with the imperial concubine is the queen's mother, and the female ghost just ran to the East Palace, and Xu Zigui is the daughter-in-law of the queen's mother, and she is quite loved by the queen, will she do this for the queen? After all, the German emperor and concubine came together and took away a lot of the queen's favor.

But as soon as he mentioned the return of Emperor Hui's concubine, he saw Xu Zigui's face pale, and his hands immediately climbed on Mo Ziyuan's arm, but he still barely looked at himself and wanted to listen, Yuan Ting felt that he was a villain, and he had long heard that the princess was smart, and the maids around her were all good hands, and looking at Xu Zigui's appearance, she looked like she was indisputable, and saw her grabbing Mo Ziyuan's arm in fear, Mo Ziyuan immediately gently coaxed and comforted him, knowing that the two of them were quiet and affectionateHow could such a person do such an abominable thing?

Therefore, Yuan Ting continued: "The emperor thinks that someone is pretending to be a ghost in the palace, and the minister has been waiting in Chuxiu Palace, but he saw the female ghost running towards the East Palace. ”

Whether the emperor is worried about the safety of Xu Zigui and Mo Ziyuan or is he suspecting that Xu Zigui and Mo Ziyuan can't say clearly, but the scene still has to be said, so after Yuan Ting finished speaking, Xu Zigui smiled with a white face and said: "It's our unfilial piety that worries my father." ”

As soon as the words fell, the guards came out with swords and hugged Mo Ziyuan: "Your Highness, rest assured, there is no suspicious person." ”

Mo Ziyuan's face couldn't see anything, he just nodded slightly, and said lightly: "Out of Xiyuan, you can search other places." ”

Huizhong is in Xiyuan, Mo Ziyuan is also afraid of scaring Huizhong, Yuan Ting naturally knows this, and respects Mo Ziyuan even more in his heart, and can love and protect the enemy's daughter, which can only show that this man's heart and strength are worthy of admiration.

Yuan Ting hugged his fists, and he was also extremely relieved of Mo Ziyuan and his wife, thinking that neither of them was a person who did such a thing, and the search was just an action, so he naturally didn't pay much attention to Xiyuan.

But just when Yuan Ting was about to take someone to search other places, a guard came in from outside with a suit in his hand and a maid in his hand.

"This is the maid that the minister caught in the backyard of the East Palace, and when she found her, she was about to burn this outfit."

As he spoke, he handed the clothes he grabbed in his hand to Yuan Ting, and it was the same one that Hui Guiren wore when he died.

When Xu Zigui saw the maid who was caught clearly, he trembled, took a step back as if he couldn't stand steadily, and almost fell. Fortunately, Mo Ziyuan quickly helped Xu Zigui, but looking at the maid who was arrested, his face was also pale, and he asked, "What's going on." ”

Xu Zigui shook his head, his eyes were full of tears, and he cried and shook his head: "The concubine doesn't know ......."

Before she finished speaking, Zhu Xing broke free from the shackles of the guards and ran to Xu Zigui and hugged Xu Zigui's thigh and begged: "Niangniang, save the slave and maid, this is all what you instructed the slave and maid, you said that you will definitely save the life of the slave and maid, Niangniang, save the slave and maid." ”

In fact, what Zhu Xing said was also in her heart, making the appearance of burning clothes in the backyard and pretending that Xu Zigui instructed her to do this was Xu Zigui asked Yuexi to threaten Zhu Xing with a knife on Die'er's neck, but this time Zhu Xing said this, but it made people think elsewhere.

Yuan Ting's face was not very good, and he looked at Mo Ziyuan with an embarrassed face, not knowing what to do. Although a few days ago there were indeed rumors that the relationship between the two people changed because of a maid, but now it seems that the relationship between the two is still very good, if this matter is really Xu Zigui's doing, will he order a strict investigation, or turn a blind eye to the past......

Who knew that when Yuan Ting was still entangled, Mo Ziyuan made an order: "Give Gu Cha and bring the entire East Palace descendants to Gu!" ”

Lan Xiang and Pan Xiang hurriedly went down to gather all the palace people and rushed to the flower hall to wait for Mo Ziyuan and Xu Zigui's interrogation.

Yuan Ting secretly had a number in his heart, it seems that the prince is extremely confident that the princess will not do such a thing before he ordered a strict investigation of this matter, the more the truth is investigated, the clearer it is, the prince did this instead of finding a maid to stuff the pond over, it seems that he believes that this matter is not the princess's doing, and he wants to return the princess a clean slate. It seems that no matter how much they quarrel, the two trust each other.

Seeing that Xu Zigui's face was blue and speechless, I saw that she did not stop Mo Ziyuan from thoroughly investigating this matter, which showed that she acted openly and was not afraid of being investigated, on the contrary, she also agreed to Mo Ziyuan's strict investigation, so as to return her innocence.

"The minister will go to the emperor and the queen."

Yuan Ting bowed and retreated on his own. Such a thing must go to the emperor and the queen.

Not only the emperor and the queen, since they knew that the emperor went to Chuxiu Palace, tonight was destined to be a sleepless night, and they had been waiting to see if Hui Guiren really found it, or someone pretended to be a ghost and knocked down the muzzle, but he didn't want to, he was really found by the emperor, and the suspect was also from the East Palace, and all eyes were cast on Fengqi Palace for a while. After all, Xu Zigui and the imperial concubine do not have any direct conflict of interest, if this matter is really Xu Zigui's doing, it will also make others think that it was instructed by the queen or that Xu Zigui always pampered the imperial concubine to advocate for the queen.

The palace people of the East Palace have long been summoned in the flower hall, and the emperor also quickly rushed over, and the harem concubines who heard the wind also came to see the excitement, only the queen did not come for a long time.

Concubine Shu is not a person who is peaceful, since Mo Qingyuan was demoted to Tailing because of Mo Ziyuan, Concubine Shu has hated the queen again, this time she is naturally going to fall into the well, seeing that the queen is delayed, she sneered at the corner of her eyes: "Why is the queen mother reluctant to come over, the night is dark, the queen mother will not believe the statement of the emperor and concubine and dare not come out." ”

I didn't do anything bad and wasn't afraid of ghosts knocking on the door, the queen didn't dare to come, why? If you think about it, you will know it. Although the emperor glared at Concubine Shu with a pale face, he didn't say anything to stop it, which shows that the emperor is also suspicious of the queen.

Since ancient times, the emperor has been suspicious, and the emperor will suspect that Queen Xu Zigui does not feel strange, but he is worried about why the queen has not come for a long time, afraid that something will happen on the road.

Worried glanced at Mo Ziyuan, Mo Ziyuan shook his head at Xu Zigui and signaled her not to worry.

Everyone stared at them for a while, and the queen's face turned pale late.

"Please atone for the emperor's sins, the concubine is not happy today, she has a headache, please forgive the emperor if she comes slowly."

Seeing that the queen's face was pale, the emperor hurriedly asked people to help the queen to sit down beside him, and said, "Don't come if you're not feeling well, just send a maid over and say it." ”

The tone is gentle, and there is nothing to see on the face, which makes people unpredictable what kind of attitude the emperor has at this time.

The queen had already fallen asleep, and suddenly heard that someone invited her to go to the East Palace, and heard that Xu Zigui had an accident, the queen was startled at first, and then felt that with Mo Ziyuan here, everything would not be too bad. Sure enough, when the queen came in, she first looked at Mo Ziyuan and his wife quietly, and when she saw Mo Ziyuan and invisibly nodding to herself, she was relieved.

Seeing that everyone was coming, Mo Ziyuan and Xu Ziguicai got up together and came to the emperor and queen, the two knelt under the emperor and queen together, kowtowed to the two, Xu Zigui said lightly: "The father and queen mother who are tired in the middle of the night can't sleep peacefully, and the daughter-in-law is very unfilial." ”

The emperor gave a faint "um", and Xu Zigui then said: "Regarding the things searched by the Yuan guards and the maid Zhu Xing, the daughter-in-law has always sat upright, and the daughter-in-law just wants to ask her father to strictly investigate this matter and give her daughter-in-law a clean slate." ”

After speaking, he kowtowed deeply, and Mo Ziyuan continued: "When the crown princess was still the lord of Yunjin County, my father said that she was generous and dignified, gentle and elegant without quarrel with the world, and later married for a few days, although the sons and daughters had disputes with the princess from time to time, but they could also guarantee the character of the princess, and the princess would never be able to do such a thing." ”

"You talk nonsense!" The imperial concubine heard that she had found someone in the East Palace, even if she dragged her sick body, she had to come over to take a look, but the emperor didn't stop her, this time she listened to Xu Zigui and Mo Ziyuan's frankness, how could they let the emperor eliminate his suspicions in a few words? Therefore, he shouted: "Your Majesty, you have to be the master of the concubines, everyone in this palace knows that the crown princess has always disliked concubines, and now the matter of Emperor Hui and the concubine just has a reason to scare the concubines...... Your Majesty, you have to look into this matter. ”

Xu Zigui lowered her head so that people couldn't see her expression, and she didn't see the coldness in her eyes. As soon as the imperial concubine's words fell, Xu Zigui hid the expression on his face, raised his head and looked at the imperial concubine sadly, and asked, "Since the imperial concubine has not done anything wrong, why are you afraid that the imperial concubine will come to the door?" The imperial concubine was frightened and fell ill by this incident, which can only mean that you have a ghost in your heart! ”

After that, he wiped the tears that fell, kowtowed to the emperor again, and said with a crying voice: "The daughter-in-law also asks the father to be clear, when Sister Hui's full moon banquet was held, the father already knew that Zhu Xing, this girl and the daughter-in-law are not the same heart, if this matter is really done by the daughter-in-law, why should the daughter-in-law send Zhu Xing over?" Yuerong Yuexi has some kung fu on her body, and she saves effort to do it, and she won't be arrested, and she is her daughter-in-law's henchman, and her daughter-in-law doesn't use it, but she wants to use such a bamboo apricot who is not the same heart as her daughter-in-law for a long time? ”

Xu Zigui deliberately mentioned what happened at Sister Hui'er's full moon banquet, which was intended to remind the emperor of the events of the day and know who Zhu Xing was.

Sure enough, as soon as Xu Zigui's words fell, the emperor's face changed, Xu Zigui secretly sneered in his heart, and Mo Ziyuan added a handful of firewood: "What the crown princess said is very true." Besides, if it was really instructed by the crown princess, Zhu Xing would not run to the East Palace again, you know, the master was discovered, and it would be of no benefit to her. All this seems to be logical, but in fact, it can be seen at a glance that it is planting a blame! ”

"You don't want to talk nonsense!"

At this time, the imperial concubine can be regarded as knowing what Xu Zigui and his wife are planning again. hated himself just now, and secretly rejoiced that Xu Zigui would finally make a mistake and hate for eternity. didn't think about it, but it turned out that people were deliberately arrested, and then there was a blame for it! It's a pity that he is not prepared at all, and at this time he can only hoarse and say that they are talking nonsense.

Mo Ziyuan lowered his eyes to hide the coldness that flashed in his eyes, ignored her, and continued: "Please ask my father to investigate this matter and restore the princess's innocence." ”

said that, he also kowtowed to the emperor, which made people sigh, the prince was really willing to do anything for the sake of the princess.

"Your Majesty!" Seeing that the emperor's eyes were still a little loose, the imperial concubine's voice was already sharp, and she screamed and shouted out Xu Zigui's plan: "Your Majesty, don't be deceived by the two of them!" They deliberately used Zhu Xing to push things on the concubines! (To be continued.) )
