Xiao Sirui's words naturally attracted everyone's attention, isn't this three hundred taels of silver here? Liao Siyu just said that she saw the person who sent the message to Gu Peiqing and Xiao Ziming, and she jumped out in such a hurry, doesn't that mean that this matter is related to her?

"Sirui, my brother knows that you want to help my brother speak, but you can't stop yourself from blaming yourself." Xiao Ziming reminded loudly.

"Big brother, I'm ......" Xiao Sirui squeezed down a few tears at the right time.

This scene of brother and sister affection is deep, Gu Yunxin who watched it really wanted to vomit, if it weren't for the previous life, she would have seen the true faces of these two people clearly, and she would really be deceived by their acting skills.

"Lord Lauder, as long as the prince is innocent, no one dares to slander him, so relax." Hu Bowen, the head of the household, comforted.

This Hu Bo was brought up by Xiao Yuanshan, naturally the people of the Xiao family are his masters, at this time he is in trouble, how can he stand by and watch?

Xiao Sirui didn't pay attention to Hu Bowen's flattery, just looked at Xiao Ziming, and saw that he gave him a reassuring look, so she stepped aside.

"Hmph, slandered? I said, Master Hu, you weren't at the scene at the time, how did you know that Xiao Ziming was wronged? Or are you the one who started it, and Xiao Ziming and Gu Peiqing are your handiwork? King Huai sneered.

Hearing this, Hu Bowen shouted that he was wronged, he just said two words of comfort, but in the mouth of King Huai, he became the initiator of all this.

King Huai and the Xiao family are not on the right track, this is a matter known to the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty, he spoke for the Xiao family today, and he must not be killed by this King Huai in the future.

King Huai and King Rui are close, the emperor loves King Rui, and naturally loves the house and Wu is also very tolerant of King Huai, there is a difference between courtiers and sons, court officials have to go through the supervision plan every year, and those who pass can naturally keep people, and those who do not pass can only be dismissed and return to their hometowns.

The son is different, even though the feelings of the heavenly family are very cold, but the emperor still has his favorite child, so he will be the one to be disposed of.

Thinking of this, Hu Bowen couldn't help but regret his recklessness just now, and now he only hopes that the matter can be clarified quickly, so that King Huai will not target him.

"The prince is joking, as the prince said, Xia Guan didn't see anything just now, Xia Guan just relied on Su Ri's understanding of Xiao Shizi and thought that he was framed for this matter." Hu Bowen said respectfully.

When he said these things, he was very careful, not only to make it clear that he was not involved, but also to speak for Xiao Ziming, so that it was naturally best not to offend the two.

"It turns out that Lord Hu doesn't do things on weekdays, but according to his personal understanding of someone, if you have a problem with your own discrimination, then there will be a big mistake, I really don't know how this official does things." Rui Wang said lightly.

Hearing this, Mu Lin, the secretary of the ministry, is going to hate Hu Bowen to death, what kind of mouth does he have, just drag himself down, and now he has to involve the ministry, King Rui said that he doesn't know how the ministry does things, doesn't that mean that the ministry is not careful about the assessment of officials?

Hearing King Rui's words, Hu Bowen swore that he would never talk nonsense again, lest he become a scapegoat for a while. The emperor sat on the dragon chair and watched all this happen with cold eyes, Xiao Ziming couldn't guess what the emperor was thinking in his heart.

But Gu Yunxin knew that the emperor was testing how many people in the Manchu Dynasty were still towards the Xiao family. Hu Bowen is undoubtedly one of them, but the emperor will not touch him for the time being, after all, he still has to keep him to catch big fish.

"Yunxin girl, this matter is related to your lifelong happiness, do you have anything to say?" The emperor took a good time.

Gu Yunxin naturally guessed that the emperor wanted her to say the cancellation of the marriage contract herself, so that he would not be persuaded by the courtiers, nor would he make the Xiao family suspicious, as for the safety of her Gu family, the emperor would naturally protect it.

"Back to the emperor, the courtiers were not happy with the prince of Ningguo, but the words of the matchmaker of the parents' orders, the courtiers could only let it go. Now, something like this has happened again, the courtiers have the courage to ask the emperor to cancel the marriage contract between the courtiers and the prince of Ningguo, so far, the marriage of men and women has nothing to do with each other. With that, Gu Yunxin kowtowed heavily to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, this is not good, the marriage between the Marquis of Ningguo Mansion and the Gu Mansion, but the emperor decreed it, how can it be said that it will change? Such a change in order will damage the emperor's reputation. Xiao Yuanshan, Marquis of Ningguo, said in a deep voice.

"Marquis Ning, are you threatening your father again? Xiao Ziming has done such a thing, do you want Miss Gu to marry into your Ningguo Marquis Mansion with a low voice? ”

"His Royal Highness King Rui, this marriage has been set for many years, and everyone in the Great Zhou knows about it, even if Ziming is wrong, it is normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, so what is there to be afraid of if Miss Gu is still the princess?" Xiao Yuanshan said proudly.

No one wants to destroy the marriage between the Xiao family and the Gu family, only by marrying Gu Yunxin, the Gu family, the Zhan family, and even the Shen family, they all have to stand on their side, and he will never allow anyone to stop them, not the emperor.

"Yes, yes, as long as Yun Xin is willing, I promise to be wholeheartedly devoted to her and will definitely live up to her." Xiao Ziming made an oath.

"Hahaha, it's really ridiculous, it's true that Xiao Shizi has a marriage contract with the eldest lady of the Gu family, but what this king wants to ask is, has the Xiao family already accepted the lottery?" King Rui is so tidy.

"Not yet, but I've already asked for the name." Xiao Ziming frowned.

According to the rules of the Great Zhou, the six ceremonies of accepting lottery, asking for names, Najib, accepting signs, inviting dates, and greeting relatives are all to be carried out. Needless to say, the man has to go to the woman's house with the bride price to be hired, which is the fulfillment of the marriage contract. As for asking for names, among the dignitaries, many people have asked someone to read the birth date from the time they were born.

And the marriage contracts of these big families are naturally based on this basis, so the name asking in the wedding ceremony is just a formality.

"Ask for a name? This is really the most ridiculous thing this king has heard this year, does this question still need to be named? Just like this king knows that you are Xiao Ziming, when is your birthday, and you also know that this king is Rui Wang Zhao Yi, can it be said that this is a question? Then you marry this king? Do you still want to marry this king? ”

As soon as these words came out, Gu Yunxin really wanted to laugh out loud, he thought that this Rui Wang was an indifferent character, but he didn't expect that it would be such a good way to make fun of people.

When Xiao Ziming heard King Rui say this, his eyes turned red in anger, this Gu Yunxin is his, King Rui is like this, doesn't he want to rob Gu Yunxin with him? Just now he heard that King Rui and Gu Yunxin were playing chess together, but he really didn't expect a cripple to want to marry.

"His Royal Highness King Rui, is this clear that he wants to rob Ziming of his wife?" Xiao Ziming asked.

This crime is not good, the dignified prince and a prince of the Hou Mansion robbed their daughter-in-law, and it is really not good to spread it. But then again, Gu Yunxin's worth now is indeed different from before.

In the past, she was just a concubine, but now she has the title of the first talented woman of the Great Zhou, and this title is enough to make many people rush to her.

"You haven't done the wedding ceremony, which means that you and the eldest lady of the Gu family have not been officially engaged, since there is no engagement, then the eldest lady of the Gu family is not your fiancée, how can you snatch it? What's more, this king and the eldest lady of the Gu family are also Xiao Ziming, who only met today, you don't want to ruin other people's reputations because of your mistakes. King Rui sneered.

"Yes, yes, Miss Gu doesn't like you, why do you force someone to marry you in vain? This is suspected of relying on the power of your Ningguo Marquis's Mansion. Besides, you have already married Miss Gu Family Third just now, since you want to marry the Gu family so much, this Miss Gu Family is the same, and she is just right for you. King Huai said at the right time.

This damn King Huai actually said that he and Gu Peiqing are just a match, that Gu Peiqing is a concubine born to his aunt, and it is already her creation to be able to marry him as a concubine or a side concubine, is it possible that she still wants to be a concubine?

At this moment, a little father-in-law walked quickly towards the main hall, and then said something in the ear of Gonggong Chen, who looked at the emperor with an embarrassed face.

"Grandpa Chen, if you have anything to say, just say it. Are you still going to hide it from me? The emperor said in a deep voice.

"Back to the emperor, someone intercepted a maid at the gate of the palace just now, and found fairy drunk and ylang-ylang incense on the body of this maid." Gonggong Chen said lightly.

When everyone heard that it was the fairy drunk and ylang-ylangxiang, they all understood that there was indeed someone who wanted to murder Xiao Ziming and Miss Gu San.

However, how could that person be so sure that her plan would definitely be implemented? You must know that such a thing cannot be done by one person at all, and she must have other helpers.

"Bring the maidservant up." The emperor said in a deep voice.

"Chirp......" Gonggong Chen said respectfully.

He immediately turned around and sang: "Miss Xuanhong Silk goes to the palace......"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a woman in blue, carrying a maid in a light blue shirt. The goddess was flustered, and her eyes kept looking at Xiao Sirui.

Xiao Sirui was also stunned when she saw this maidservant, didn't she arrange for Zixi to leave the palace? How could you be caught? Isn't that woman in blue, Hongxuan, the girl next to Gu Yunxin?

"The people's daughter has seen the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor." Red Silk saluted respectfully.

"Excuse me, girl, you caught this servant?" The emperor wondered.

"Yes, Your Majesty. The maid is the maid next to Miss Gu, and today this maid once sent refreshments to my young lady, and it happened that the refreshments were eaten by the third lady. Later, it was this maidservant again, and she sent a letter, but unfortunately the envelope was wet, and my young lady did not bother to pay attention to it, so she threw the letter on the table at will. After that, the girl accompanied my young lady for a walk in the garden. Hongxuan briefly recounted the matter.

Hearing what Hongxuan said, Gu Peiqing's heart was really hateful, it turned out that all this was for Gu Yunxin, but she became a scapegoat.

However, what puzzled her was why this servant girl wanted to frame Gu Yunxin, this servant girl seemed to be following Xiao Sirui, so to speak, all this was planned by Xiao Sirui?

"Your Majesty, now you also understand that the courtiers were framed by this cheap maid. As long as you find out who the master of this is, you can find the mastermind behind the scenes. Gu Peiqing said hurriedly.

Looking at Gu Peiqing's appearance, Gu Yunxin couldn't help but hook her lips and smile, Gu Peiqing is not too stupid, at least she understands that if she doesn't talk about fighting with herself now, no wonder she will be planted in Gu Peiqing's hands in the last life.
