Jiang Li was full of smiles, Lu Cancan's performance today really showed that she was a hidden person.

"The eldest princess is serious, if it weren't for Lin Yi and Gu Moxi to help me, I guess I would have been scolded by the emperor by now."

Jiang Li likes Lu Cancan very much, she doesn't fight or grab, she is steady, unlike some girls who like to be in the limelight, she smiled and said, "You still call me the eldest princess." ”

Lu Cancan was a little shy, and glanced at Lin Yi embarrassedly, Lin Yi was also like Lu Cancan, his face was a little red, probably because he had drunk too much osmanthus wine.

"Your father was dragged by those people to compose poems again, right, let Yi'er send you back."

No matter how Jiang Li looks at Lu Cancan now, she feels happy in her heart, she and Lin Yi are very compatible.

Lin Yi thought in his heart that he was really his own mother, and he knew what he was thinking about being a son.

"Noble Lady Lu, please stay."

They were just about to go back when they suddenly saw a little eunuch running over.

"Noble Girl Lu, the queen is invited."

Empress?

It was getting late, and the queen wanted to go over and do something herself.

Thinking that he was almost drugged by the queen last time, Lu Cancan was a little afraid, this time he didn't know what the queen wanted to do, did he want to be angry for Yang Qiong?

Jiang Li thought about it and asked the little eunuch who passed the word, but he knew what the queen called Lu Cancan to go over, and the little eunuch was also helpless, he didn't mean to hide it from them, and he didn't know why the queen suddenly called Lu Cancan over.

"Don't worry, I'll accompany you."

Last time, Lin Yi was a minister and a man, so he gave the queen a chance to use the topic to play, and he accompanied them this time to see what the queen wanted to do twice or three times.

With the eldest princess and Lin Yi by her side, Lu Cancan thought that nothing should happen.

The emperor was already waiting a little impatiently, he had already returned to the palace with Concubine Shu, but the queen suddenly called him back, saying that there was something important to ask the emperor to decide, but the emperor came, and the queen didn't say a word.

"Please wait a little longer, the emperor has already sent someone to stop that person."

After a while, Lu Cancan came to Fengzao Palace, and when she saw that the emperor and queen and the concubine were there, she had a faint bad premonition in her heart.

"See the Emperor."

Lu Cancan has been kneeling down all the time today, feeling that his legs are sore.

The emperor looked at the queen puzzled, and the person the queen let herself see was Lu Cancan.

The queen glanced at Bai Shao, and Bai Shao stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the night pearl on the queen's phoenix crown has been lost." ”

That night pearl is unparalleled in the world, even in the dark night, it is dazzling, and it is the heirloom of Dayan.

The queen pointed at Lu Cancan and said: "Bold Lu Cancan, if you hand over the Night Pearl now, I can still spare you, if you refuse to admit your guilt, I will send you directly to be tortured!" ”

The Night Pearl is a royal thing, representing the queen's esteemed status, and stealing the Night Pearl is a great crime to be complicit in rebellion.

"The courtiers don't know why the queen thinks that the night pearl was stolen by the courtiers, dare to ask the mother, but there is someone to prove it." Of course Lu Cancan will not admit his guilt, why should he admit what he has not done, it is obvious that the queen wants to frame herself.

The queen sneered: "Still don't admit it? Bring that maid up. ”

I saw two eunuchs walking over with a palace maid, and the palace maid knelt on the ground and wept bitterly.

"Look at it, if she's the person you saw outside the Fengzao Palace."

The palace maid raised her head tremblingly and glanced at it, Lu Cancan remembered her, she was the little palace maid she saw outside the Fengzao Palace when she left Tonghuatai at night.

The little palace maid nodded tremblingly, the queen nodded, now that she has a witness, does Lu Cancan have anything else to say?

Fengzao Palace is where the middle palace is located, the guards are very tightly guarded, and the people who come and go are the palace people who are used to the Fengzao Palace, and during the banquet, there are no suspicious people waiting to enter and exit, except for Lu Cancan.

At this time, Yang Qiong also stood up and testified: "The courtiers also remember that it seems that during the banquet, she seems to have been away for a long time, could it be that she took advantage of this time to steal the Night Pearl?" ”

Lin Yigang wanted to stand up and say that Lu Cancan was with him during that time, but Lu Cancan shook his head slightly at him.

Men and women are not allowed to be alone in the palace, and now that she has been stirred in, she doesn't want Lin Yi to be slandered by others, and just by virtue of her relationship with Lin Yi, his testimony will also be thought to be biased in favor of herself, so she deliberately said it.

What's more, the queen will say that Lin Yi is her accomplice.

Jiang Li said: "Since the queen also said that Fengzao Palace is heavily guarded, how did Lu Cancan enter Fengzao Palace?" ”

"Who doesn't know that she is good at kung fu, wouldn't it be easy to steal the Pearl of the Night."

"Really? If you say so, then the forbidden army in the palace is too useless. Jiang Li sneered, the queen really did everything to confirm Lu Cancan's crime, even if Lu Cancan's martial arts were high, wouldn't it be as difficult as it was to steal the queen's night pearl in the heavily guarded palace?

And today is the Mid-Autumn Festival Night Banquet, as long as you leave at the banquet, it will inevitably attract the attention of others, isn't it equivalent to telling everyone that you are going to steal something?

"Naturally, you will speak for her, but it is a fact that she has been to Fengzao Palace before." Although the queen couldn't think of a reason to refute Jiang Li, it was true that someone had seen Lu Cancan come to her palace, who else but her?

Lu Cancan asked the palace maid kneeling on the ground: "Have you ever seen me walk into Fengzao Palace with your own eyes?" ”

The little palace maid looked up at the queen mother, as if she was a little scared.

The emperor said slowly: "Even if you tell the truth, with me, naturally no one will dare to do anything to you." ”

The little palace maid kowtowed and said, "The slave just saw Lu Guinu standing at the gate of the Fengzao Palace for a while, as for whether she entered the Fengzao Palace or not, the slave really didn't see it." ”

The queen said angrily: "Useless things, are you also their accomplice!" ”

The palace maid was so frightened by the queen's majesty that her face turned pale, her body was shaking, the emperor glared at the queen, just a palace maid, and she could use the queen to move such a big liver fire, she really didn't look like a queen at all, besides, she just told the truth, why did the queen reprimand her?

The queen said hatefully: "I think that whether it is Lu Cancan or this cheap maid, there is not a word of truth in their mouths, it is better to directly punish them, so that they can tell the whereabouts of the night pearl." ”

Lu Cancan's status is precious, and it is really unreasonable for the queen to execute Lu Cancan without any real evidence.
