The man's face changed, and he suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "Su Ziran, you dare to ......"

Su Ziran raised her eyebrows, a bit of mockery crossed her pale face, and she wanted to ask him, what did she dare to do, did she want to say that she dared to kill King Xuan? So why didn't you continue halfway through?

Since she acted so quickly and had already found her as a scapegoat in such a short period of time, why bother to act at this moment, expose her crimes in front of everyone, and protect the selfless reputation of the Grand Duke of the Royal Mansion?

As if sensing the mockery flashing on her face, the man's figure flickered, and his face was a little whiter than hers, but his thin lips were bent out of place at this time, revealing a smile that was far from a treacherous success, but with a bit of desolation and pathos.

"Su Ziran, you really disappointed this king."

Oh, finally I said it.

Killed his brother, so let him down, didn't you?

What about him, she loves her with all her heart and lungs, but he is so deliberately harming her, won't he let her down?

No, not disappointed, she's desperate.

……

The Imperial Study.

When Su Ziran entered, Emperor Jing was looking at a very small note in his hand, and when he saw her come in, he accepted the note, raised his hand and waved away Li Chengde, who was waiting on the side, leaving her alone.

"Su Ziran, do you know why I summoned you here?"

Emperor Jing's voice was very deep, but he couldn't distinguish joy and anger, originally Su Ziran thought that he would be angry, after all, he should have thought that he had killed his son, so his calm reaction now was far beyond her expectations.

She nodded, thought for a while, and knelt down again: "Back to my father, the courtiers and daughters-in-law have heard about it before they came, and some people say that they saw the courtiers kill King Xuan." ”

"Looking at you like this, you should not admit that you killed King Xuan, right?"

Su Ziran bit her lip and raised her head suddenly: "Yes, what the courtiers haven't done, how can you recognize it?" ”

Emperor Jing pinched the note in his palm, pondered for a moment, his eyes slowly narrowed, and said, "Someone came up this morning and said that they saw you in the bamboo forest in the west of the city." Even though the man was a woodcutter and passed by there every day, I wondered how it was possible for someone as smart as you to kill someone and still stand there and be looked at. ”

She was very grateful: "Father Emperor Mingjian! ”

Emperor Jing suddenly frowned again, his face turned grim, and he shouted in a deep voice: "But you didn't just appear at the scene of the crime, you also left something there!" ”

Su Ziran was startled, her eyes flowed slightly, and suddenly as if she thought of something, her pupils suddenly shrank, and even her heart trembled.

After a long time, she lowered her eyes and smiled bitterly: "Dare to ask my father, what is the thing left by the daughter-in-law?" ”

"A sleeved robe." Emperor Jing replied, "Look at that shape, it should have been accidentally torn off when you were scuffling with someone." So, you were still arguing with someone in that bamboo forest, weren't you? ”

Su Ziran closed her eyes and took a deep breath, and slowly opened them again, the confusion and pain in her eyes were no longer there, only a clear sense of understanding.

Without waiting for her to speak, Emperor Jing said again: "If you don't admit that you killed King Xuan, then you tell me that you still met someone else in that forest at that time, or saw any suspicious characters, and who had a dispute with you?" ”

"Father's ......"

……

The reason why the emperor summoned Princess Rui was rumored in the palace for a while, and it is said that Princess Rui suffered the disaster of annihilation and was restless, and she had become a murderous maniac, and even the well-intentioned Prince Xuan did not let go. There were many people gathered at the door of the imperial study, and Emperor Jing did not open his mouth to evacuate, and the guards guarding the door also let them stand there, including many concubines and princesses in the palace.

Among them, the crown prince Jun Luo Yu stood at the forefront, and the crown princess Su Liuyue was beside him, both of them looked extremely bad, as if they were arguing about something, but if they looked closely, they didn't look like it, because the two of them whispered from time to time, although they couldn't hear what they were talking about, but they could also see that they were not quarrelling, but worried about the same thing.

At this moment, everyone couldn't help but think of the one who entered the imperial study an hour ago, maybe because there were few relatives left of the crown princess, so they were worried about the life and death of Princess Rui at the moment?

Low, sighing voices were heard from the crowd.

Everyone knows very well in their hearts what it means if the crime of killing King Xuan is confirmed, not only Princess Rui will definitely die, but even King Rui's Mansion will be implicated by it. For more than a year, King Rui has loved his princess so much, almost thousands of favors in one, which makes all women envious, but in the end, he got such a result, and I don't know how he feels at this time.

Someone secretly focused on him, or could see a tense side face, or could see his stiff back, but could not find out what he was really thinking at the moment.

King Liang stood side by side with him, his eyes always fell on this younger brother, such a long wait was like a psychological tug-of-war, he could see clearly, this fourth brother who had always been calm and self-contained almost couldn't help but rush to the imperial study several times to ask his father and the emperor about someone, if he didn't pull it to death, it would have to be a big deal.

But it's been a whole hour, what is the father talking about inside, and if it's an interrogation, why should he be alone?

Even his own heart was restless, but he could imagine the mood of the fourth brother now, so he reached out and patted Jun Luohan on the shoulder, and said in a low voice: "Fourth brother, don't worry too much, my father should not have conclusive evidence now, otherwise this case will be directly transferred to Dali Temple, and my father will not announce Zi Dye alone." ”

Before Jun Luohan could speak, there was a "squeak", and the door of the imperial study finally opened.

The figure that gradually appeared was the one that everyone was looking forward to.

Before seeing her, everyone thought that she would cry, be decadent, and argue, so her peaceful appearance now was a big surprise, only the sleeve robe that was missing looked a little embarrassed, and the rest was no different from usual.

Could it be that after such a long interrogation, Emperor Jing washed away her grievances?

saw Li Chengde hurriedly entering, hurriedly came out, and glanced at the woman beside him, his eyes were full of sympathy and pity.

Brushing off the dust, he said loudly: "The emperor said that Princess Rui and King Rui have been married for a year without any appearance, and they also instigated King Rui to favor one of them, jealousy, and corrupt morality, and he still does not want to repent, and now he has done a stupid thing of killing the prince, and he has abolished Princess Rui and executed him three days later." The emperor was benevolent, remembering that he had suffered the disaster of annihilation two days ago, and was depressed in his heart, so he left his whole body and gave him a glass of wine. ”

The woman standing in front of the door of the imperial study was still straight and impartial, as if the "Rui Princess" in Li Chengde's mouth was not her, but the people in front of her were all shocked and stunned, and there were people close to her who were full of pain, especially King Rui.

King Liang's eyebrows were tightly locked, and he was still watching the movement here from a distance not far away, but his heart was constantly fluctuating.

What did my father say, and what happened in this more than an hour?

Why would the woman admit it?

Things have come to this point, what should the fourth brother do? With his love for that woman, if she really died, what would the fourth brother do?

Can you go back in time? Can you go back to the way she was when she didn't show up?

And the princess next to her, the woman who had saved his life, was also looking at the woman not far away with concern, although she didn't know the woman, but in her impression, she was really a great person.

She never believed the rumors from the outside world, but in that woman, she felt that others could not explain the extraordinary thing about her.

Perhaps, this is why, the same marriage, the woman can make King Rui die, but she can only keep the empty boudoir alone, right?

But is such a strange woman, at this moment, actually going to die?

Emperor Chrysostom said that it is irretrievable......

Jun Luoyu clenched his fists tightly, the green tendons on the back of his hands were exposed, if it was before, of course he would have wanted this woman to die quickly, but now in this situation, she can't die yet-she's still useful, she can't die yet!

Su Ziran smiled at the corner of her mouth, her eyes swept over everyone inch by inch, taking in everyone's faces, but she didn't stay in front of anyone for half a minute, as if nothing could arouse her emotional ups and downs.

Under the sun, someone flickered, his face was pale, and he walked towards her step by step, his bottomless black eyes flashed with strong stubbornness.

Stopping in front of her, his eyes didn't fall on her, he stared coldly at Li Chengde on the side, and said word by word in a hoarse voice: "She was convicted so quickly, what about the evidence?" ”

Li Chengde has been by the emperor's side for so many years, although he has just been promoted to the head of the inner house, he is also used to seeing the world, but at this time, he was glared at by his angry yin owl eyes, and he was frightened for a while, and he was speechless for a long time.

The door of the imperial study was opened again, but it was Emperor Jing himself.

looked at the prospect, his eyebrows were cold, and he reprimanded in a low voice: "She admitted it herself, what evidence do you need?" ”

The man's figure flickered, and the only trace of blood on his face finally disappeared.

He turned his head in disbelief, his gaze didn't even stay on Emperor Jing for half a minute, he glared at the woman in front of him fiercely, opened his mouth several times, but didn't say a word.

Su Ziran's eyes were slightly condensed, and the faint and flowing eye waves looked into his dark and deep black eyes for a moment, and the corners of his mouth were shallow.

"You confessed it yourself?" He finally squeezed the words out of his chest with great difficulty.

Emperor Jing frowned, a little dissatisfied: "King Rui, are you doubting my words?" ”

He didn't answer, as if he hadn't heard Emperor Jing's words, emotions surged in his dark eyes, and he stared at the woman in front of him more and more fiercely, his sleeves and robes on both sides trembled slightly, and he didn't know whether it was the ripples of the summer breeze or the trembling of his hands in his sleeves.

Everyone could see that the emperor was angry, but King Rui's anger seemed to be even worse than that of the emperor, so that the eyes of everyone around him suddenly focused on the woman in front of him, and they couldn't help but look forward to the answer in her mouth.
