Chapter 126: Evidence

"You do have no grievances with me, speaking of which, you were in trouble before you were repaid, and this palace still has the feeling of rescue, if you want to come, it must have nothing to do with you." Murong Cheng smoothly took the words.

After that, he looked at Jin Yuan again, his eyes became a little colder, "But Lord Jin is different, the last time about the military horses, Lord Jin was resentful of the palace for speaking for the servant, so there was such a fire?" ”

Although it was a question, this was not the meaning of asking Jin Yuan at all, and it was clearly said to the old emperor.

It's simply organized, and no one can not doubt Jin Yuan.

The fourth princess wanted to say something, but she was suddenly blocked by the old emperor's eyes, closed her mouth in a sneer, and retreated to the side alone.

Jin Yuan frowned imperceptibly, he didn't expect Murong Cheng to mention this matter, he was silent for a moment, looked up at the old emperor again, and said:

"Your Majesty, the palace is strictly forbidden, and Wei Chen is a Wenchen, even if it is as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said, how can Wei Chen escape from the scene so easily."

As he spoke, he pointed to the commander of the guards standing beside him, and continued:

"When the fire broke out, I and Ning Er Girl were about to go to the palace gate, and at that time I was told by the commander that we couldn't go out of the palace to bring it back, the time difference in between, how could I set the fire in a short period of time and take Ning Er Girl to the palace gate?"

Jin Yuan is the champion of today, and it is well known that he does not know martial arts, and there is some truth in this statement.

The old emperor was silent for a moment, but the crown prince couldn't sit still.

It was not easy to catch this matter and be able to condemn Jin Yuan, how could he miss this great opportunity.

"Father, speaking of which, Lord Jin is all his own words, he can't testify at all, and he dares to set fire to the East Palace, which is a serious crime, and he asks his father to seek justice for his son!"

The fire in the East Palace is indeed a big deal, if the murderer is not found, maybe this fire will not burn to the Qinzheng Palace, now the prince's words are conclusive, Jin Yuan can't come up with more powerful evidence, the old emperor's eyes narrowed slightly, and he pondered.

Ning Zhao was anxious, and wanted to say something, but Jin Yuan gave her a look in time to stop her.

This time, the crown prince Murong Cheng was determined to press this charge on himself, and he couldn't drag Ning Zhao in.

What's more, he has been in the DPRK for a long time, even if he can't escape the blame today, Jin Yuan still has enough confidence to clear up this crime.

As long as Ning Zhao is well, he is not in a hurry.

Jin Yuan thought about it, so he didn't speak, everything was up to the old emperor to decide.

Seeing that Jin Yuan couldn't tell the difference, the prince was secretly happy in his heart, but the four princesses on the side were so anxious that their eyes were red, and they stared at Ning Zhao, and their fingers turned white.

All these things were heard by Ning Zhao, who was standing in the corner, she raised her eyes slightly, glanced at Ning Zhao, and the corners of her mouth slowly hooked.

How the fire happened, no one present knew better than Ning Lian, because she was the one who started the fire.

Her purpose is simple -

If it passes like this, the prince can completely deny the relationship with her, so what's the point of her doing all this!

Her little abacus sounded, but this matter was a decision that she had been calculating for a long time in her heart.

She wants to make a big deal out of it, and she wants everyone to know her relationship with the crown prince, so that in order to cover up the scandal, the old emperor has to take care of the servant Ning Hong, and Murong Cheng can't admit it if he wants to!

She's going to be a queen!

Climbing up to Murong Cheng is only the first step.

It's just that she didn't expect that this matter would actually involve Ning Zhao and Jin Yuan, for her, it was an unexpected joy, how unhappy and excited she was!

The old emperor was silent for a long time this time, and after a long time, just when the prince couldn't wait to add more fire, a confused voice suddenly came into everyone's ears.

"What's going on?"

Murong Ji was supported by the eunuch and walked in from outside the hall.

As soon as he saw that the old emperor was also there, he was sober for the most part, so he quickly let go of his hand to help the eunuch, stood up straight, and bowed to the old emperor, "Sons and daughters see their father!" Father's longevity Jin'an! ”

Looking at the drunken Murong Ji, the old emperor couldn't help frowning, and asked, "Look at your appearance, do you still have the slightest appearance as a prince!" ”

When Murong Ji heard this, he quickly knelt down and said: "Today's garden flower party, the sons drank a few more glasses when they were happy, and it was the fault of the sons and daughters to lose their manners in front of their father, and I hope that my father will forgive me." ”

"Humph!" The old emperor snorted lightly, looked at the King of Chu a few more times, and then did not pursue it.

It was Murong Ji who raised his eyes and saw that everyone was there, and there were still so many guards outside, and asked puzzledly: "I don't know when happened to my father and emperor here, why are there so many people?" ”

"What?" The old emperor wanted to snort coldly again, "You don't even know about such a big thing as the fire in the East Palace." ”

"A fire in the East Palace?" Murong was probably drunk, but he really didn't pay attention to it, and when he heard this, he found that there was still a strong smell of burnt paste in the air.

When I looked up, it was dark outside, and there was gray smoke in many places, and it was really just caught in a fire.

"How could there be a fire, but man-made? Did you catch the murderer again? Murong stood up with great support and asked several questions in a row.

The old emperor doted on this son very much, and he didn't say anything when he saw him like this, but the fourth princess couldn't help it and interjected, "My father is investigating, what about the murderer......"

The fourth princess glanced at Ning Zhao, who was kneeling in the hall, snorted coldly, and said, "I don't know who instigated it." ”

Murong Ji was puzzled when he heard this, and looked at the sight of the fourth princess, facing Shang Ning Zhao's gaze.

"Second Miss Ning, you're also there." Murong Ji grinned, and Zhao Ning Zhao smiled.

Ning Zhao couldn't help frowning, Murong Ji still had this simple and honest appearance, and then looked at the prince who was eyeing him on the side, she was really worried about Murong Ji.

"The King of Chu came just in time." The prince sneered, pointed at Jin Yuan and asked, "Lord Jin said that he went to visit you before, but is there such a thing?" ”

Hearing this, everyone looked towards Murong Ji, Ning Zhao didn't know where Jin Yuan had gone before, and his eyes were even more worried.

Murong Ji was suddenly asked, stunned for a moment, looked at Jin Yuan, and said, "Lord Jin?" ”

Looking at his stunned appearance, everyone was very complicated.

The crown prince was naturally pleased, but Ning Zhao's worry was even stronger, and he couldn't help but look at Jin Yuan, his eyes full of inquiry.

Jin Yuan shook his head at her slightly, signaling her not to worry.

Now that Murong Ji is here, he doesn't have to wait until tomorrow.

"Looking at King Chu like this, could it be that Lord Jin really lied?" The prince made persistent efforts and arched the fire.

The old emperor also looked at Murong Ji and asked.

Murong Ji seemed to have just woken up, raised his hand and touched his head, and laughed, "No, Lord Jin didn't lie, he did come to me." ”

Hearing this, Ning Zhao's eyes lit up, and on the contrary, Murong Cheng's face instantly darkened, and he said in a deep voice: "King Mo of Chu is not drunk, he can't remember clearly." ”
