"How can there be a man in the princess's house in the middle of the night?"

A sentence is like cold water soaking a hot pot and exploding in an instant.

"Princess, even if you are not satisfied with the prince, you shouldn't be so shameless and embarrass the prince's face."

Ye Yan'er said in disbelief: "I usually listen to people in private say that you are misbehaving, and I just turn a blind eye, but now so many people are watching, spread it out, so that the prince has some face." ”

Ye Yan'er's every sentence was like adding fuel to the fire, and the uproar ignited King Xiao's anger.

King Xiao was furious, his fists creaked, and he gritted his teeth: "Chu Yunning! ”

Chu Yunning pointed to the burning main house, and said angrily: "Are you stupid or am I stupid, waiting for someone to catch the stolen goods in vain?" ”

Ye Yan'er hid pitifully behind King Xiao and muttered: "Lord Wang, could it be that the princess was discovered by someone, so she was angry and set fire to destroy the corpse?" ”

This explanation makes sense.

King Xiao nodded approvingly: "It must be that she is shameless!" ”

"My mother is not ashamed, it was this person who secretly came to steal my mother's jewelry, knocked over the candle flame, and my mother couldn't control the fire before she escaped with me!"

Remember https://m in a second.

Beibei pouted with red eyes, and argued unconvinced.

"Princess, how can you teach children to lie, what else is there in Danqiong Courtyard that is worth someone stealing?"

As soon as Ye Yan'er spoke, she was grabbed by Chu Yunning, and asked very quickly: "What is this called, I am the eldest daughter of the Chu family, with a rich dowry, and the Queen Mother rewards her from time to time, how can it not be worth remembering with countless gold and silver treasures, plus Danqiong Courtyard does not even have a guard, it is a good opportunity to start, Concubine Ye, do you say?" ”

Ye Yan'er opened her eyes with a weak heart, in order to win people's hearts in the past few years, and she usually spent a little more, she tried her best to eliminate the people of Danqiong Courtyard, and it was as simple as digging for Chu Yunning's dowry.

In the past five years, thanks to this dowry, it is enough to support her, and everyone has been in front of her.

At this time, the man in the house was rescued, and someone immediately recognized it as the youngest son of the porter, who was usually responsible for the errands in the yard.

"Zhang Xiaoer usually likes to gather crowds to gamble, but today he committed a thief's heart and almost burned our mother and son to death, and asked the prince to give justice!"

Chu Yunning's eyes suddenly flashed with a cold chill.

Seeing Chu Yunning's orderly appearance, King Xiao hesitated for a moment before instructing the secret guard to investigate, and soon the secret guard replied that Zhang Xiao'er really loves to gamble, and he still owes a lot of silver, and he was privately collected by the gambling house.

"Lord Wang, it's Yan'er's fault." Seeing that this was wrong, Ye Yan'er knelt down and pleaded guilty: "Yan'er is in charge of the internal affairs of the palace, but I didn't expect that someone would dare to act boldly and take the opportunity to bully Danqiong Courtyard, which is Yan'er's dereliction of duty." ”

"It turns out that the princess already knows what is going on, no wonder she has always asked Concubine Ye to swear, Concubine Ye is in charge of the palace of Nuoda, and it is inevitable to be negligent for a while, but the princess is so aggressive, and it is too much to deliberately make things difficult for people."

The big housekeeper immediately stood up to argue a few words for Ye Yan'er, with a dog-legged face: "Lord, in the past few years, Concubine Ye has trembled and done her best to the palace, it is all Zhang Xiao'er's fault, you can't blame Concubine Ye, and please ask the prince to learn clearly." ”

Chu Yunning was about to be laughed at, speaking of which, she had become a victim?

The fire behind it was quickly extinguished with the concerted efforts of everyone, and there was a strong smell of burning in the air.

Zhang Xiao'er on the ground was still unconscious, and King Xiao kicked it.

Zhang Xiaoer woke up with a whimper, looking at the people around him with a confused face, and was frightened.

King Xiao said angrily: "You are so bold that you dare to steal into the palace, come here, drag this king out, and kill him with a cane!" ”

"Wait!" Chu Yunning scolded suddenly, if Zhang Xiao'er died, she would not be able to wash herself even if she jumped into the Yellow River in the future.

"The princess doesn't want to protect Zhang Xiao'er, or is the princess distressed?" Ye Yan'er was surprised, her eyes lingered on Zhang Xiao'er and Beibei, the meaning was self-evident, King Xiao quickly understood Ye Yan'er's meaning, and his face became more and more ugly.

Chu Yunning rolled his eyes, he was angry.

"If someone wants to kill you, they will kill you casually, but there is always a crime, right?"

"The princess wanted to secretly execute Zhang Xiao'er, think about it, this is a palace scandal after all, and spreading it will only make the prince lose face."

Ye Yan'er spared no effort to button Chu Yunning's head with a hat, as if she had already determined the fact that she was stealing people.

Chu Yunning sneered: "What is Concubine Ye panicking, the person is here, check it out and know the truth, if I want to be weak-hearted, can I still keep him here?" ”

Ye Yan'er bit her lip and was silent, surprised that Chu Yunning had changed in the past few years, and she hadn't been caught up in it.

You must know that Chu Yun in the past was rather a fool, he couldn't stand the anger, and he was easily led astray by her.

What's going on this time?

Chu Yunning ignored Ye Yan'er and stared at King Xiao: "There are not many people in Danqiong Courtyard, Zhang Xiao'er came to kill people and set fire in the middle of the night, shouldn't the prince interrogate clearly before making a decision?" ”

At this time, Ye Yan'er tugged on King Xiao's sleeve and said softly: "Lord Wang, there are so many people tossing in the middle of the night, if something bad really happens in the interrogation, where will the prince's face go, it is better to kill Zhang Xiao'er with a cane and convict him of stealing." ”

King Xiao pondered for a moment, his gaze wandering over Zhang Xiao'er and Chu Yunning, and then nodded.

"Yan'er, what you said is reasonable, just do what you say."

Ye Yan'er immediately smiled happily and said to Chu Yunning: "Princess, the prince has stopped pursuing it, it is all Zhang Xiao'er's fault, it's not early, let's go back and rest." ”

When the words fell, the maids and mothers-in-law praised Concubine Ye for her kindness.

Chu Yunning sighed: "That's it, it turns out that the lives of our mother and son are so despicable in the eyes of Concubine Ye. ”

"Princess, I didn't mean that......" Ye Yan'er twisted her eyebrows.

"Today, our mother and son are blessed with great lives and have not been burned to death, we dare not stay in this palace any longer, as soon as dawn our mother and son will go to the palace gate to wait, asking for a life-saving habitat."

Chu Yunning held Beibei by the hand, and was extremely disappointed in King Xiao in his heart.

Ye Yan'er was a little panicked when she heard this, the Queen Mother didn't want to see her, she didn't want to annoy the Queen Mother anymore.

So Ye Yan'er looked at King Xiao aggrievedly: "Lord, Yan'er just kindly suggested, I didn't expect the princess to be so unappreciative." ”

"Yan'er, I don't blame you for this, she did something shameless, since she has to investigate, this king will let her die to understand!"

King Xiao gave an order, and Zhang Xiaoer was tied up and knelt on the ground.

"Tell me, what's the matter with coming to Danqiong Yuan tonight?"

Zhang Xiao'er had never seen this battle, and it took a long time before she came to her senses: "I...... Lord, the slave was invited by the princess. ”

"What?" Ye Yan'er covered her mouth in surprise:

"Really...... Princess, you hate the prince in your heart, and you shouldn't blatantly do things that damage the prince's face, hey, the princess is confused! ”

"Shut up!" Chu Yunning rubbed her ears and listened to her chirp all night.

"The prince is not a fool, he will judge for himself, and he doesn't need to be reminded by Concubine Ye."

Ye Yan'er's little face stiffened slightly, and she glanced at King Xiao, and sure enough, King Xiao's face was a little not good-looking.

Seeing this, she had no choice but to shut up.

She wants to see how Chu Yunning clears herself this time!

So everyone's eyes fell on Zhang Xiaoer.

Zhang Xiao'er swallowed her saliva and looked at Chu Yunning nervously.

Chu Yunning raised his eyebrows, and said casually: "I am the princess of the King James, if you steal to Danqiong Yuan, you will be punished at most, if you are invited to come, you slander the face of the royal family, affect the nine clans, and you can't run away from any of them, you have to think about it before answering." ”

Zhang Xiao'er swallowed back when she heard the words on her lips.

Suffering from the board and losing the life of the whole family, which is more important, Zhang Xiao'er quickly distinguished clearly, and kowtowed to King Xiao: "Lord Wang, it's all the fault of the slave, the slave just came to Danqiongyuan to steal for a while, and begged the prince to spare his life." ”

Ye Yan'er heard him deny it, angry and anxious, and just about to say something, King Xiao kicked Zhang Xiao'er with one foot: "You also put the fire?" ”

"Minions....... Minions don't. Zhang Xiao'er shook his head, he didn't know what the fire was all about.

The boss only arranged for him to make a disturbance and slander the princess's innocence, but he didn't say that he killed people and set fires.

"Lord, our mother and son have just returned to Danqiong Yuan, and I don't know if there have been thieves in the yard before, so I propose to check the treasury and give me an explanation."

Chu Yunning waited for a long time, just waiting for this opportunity.

More than half of the dowry was missing in the warehouse, and nine times out of ten it was swallowed by Ye Yan'er, and she asked Ye Yan'er to spit it out a lot.

Ye Yan'er's heart tightened suddenly, wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and choked up: "Lord, did the princess misunderstand that Yan'er was worried about the princess's dowry?" ”

Before King Xiao spoke, Chu Yunning turned to comfort Ye Yan'er: "I believe that Concubine Ye is not a despicable villain who covets money, but the loss of my dowry is a fact, you should give me an explanation, right?" ”

was pointed at the tip of her nose and insulted, Ye Yan'er didn't refute it, she swallowed it in one gulp, and sneered: "The princess is right, but it's getting late today, it's better to wait for tomorrow to check together and see what is missing." ”

Ye Yan'er's little bird snuggled in King Xiao's arms like a human, her little face was pale and she was clutching her chest, panting heavily.

Seeing this, King Xiao waved his hand: "At this time, there is no hurry for a while, let's try it again tomorrow." ”

"Wait!"

Chu Yun would rather not wait for one night, this night can change too many things.

King Xiao frowned.

"Lord Wang, Yan'er is a little unwell." Ye Yan'er held her forehead with her hands and looked weak.

"Concubine Ye, don't worry, it'll be fine right away."

Chu Yunning asked Aunt Mao to prepare a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and threw it to Zhang Xiao'er: "Write out your words today and press the handprint." ”

Zhang Xiaoer was stunned, and didn't know what to do for a while.

"People are imprisoned here with me, the prince is not at ease, people are not under my nose, I am not at ease, just write a few words, Concubine Ye should be able to hold on, right?"

Chu Yunning seemed to be smiling, she was not stupid, when the time came, there would be no proof of death, and ten mouths could not explain clearly.

Ye Yan'er's face changed slightly, and when she watched Zhang Xiao'er write down the note, her head suddenly buzzed, and she was so angry that she wanted to slap Zhang Xiao'er twice.

Idiot!

Blowing dry the ink, Chu Yunning put away the note and put it in his arms, and the corners of his mouth curled up and sneered: "The prince has to take care of people, don't die and be disabled." ”

After that, Chu Yunning ignored the faces of the two and led Beibei into the side room.
