Chapter 40: Reversing Black and White
"Gu Jinxiu, you are so bold, you dare to kill the Eighth Emperor Brother!" Princess Huaqiong pointed at Gu Jinli with her finger, looking frightened.
"Dare to kill the prince, Gu Jinxiu, you really deserve to die!"
"But it's not, this is a big crime!"
Jiang Qinglan and Shen Biyun beside Princess Huaqiong, that is, the two young ladies who sarcastically spoke at the beginning of the banquet, also echoed.
Gu Jinli frowned, continued the movements in her hands, and didn't bother to pay attention.
Hua Qiong saw that she was ignored by Gu Jinli, and she was angry, and immediately waved her jade hand, and said angrily: "Come on, Gu Jinxiu plotted to kill the Eighth Emperor Brother and ...... her"
"Cough cough cough ......" The Eighth Prince, whose eyes were closed, opened his eyes slightly, spit out a few mouthfuls of water, opened his mouth, and then fainted again.
After Gu Jinli probed the pulse of the Eighth Prince, she finally put her mind at ease and raised her eyes and sneered.
"What are you doing standing stupidly? Take the people down! Princess Huaqiong gritted her teeth, eager to tear the smile on Gu Jinli's face with her own hands.
In the main hall, the emperor was smiling and talking to the queen mother, when suddenly Gonggong Jia walked in quickly and whispered in his ear.
His brows tightened, and the emperor's face became gloomy.
Immediately afterwards, Princess Huaqiong ran in from outside with her skirt in her arms, and said with tears in her eyes: "Father, you have to be the master of the Eighth Emperor Brother!" ”
Gu Jinli stood behind Hua Qiong calmly, her wet white middle coat sticking to her body, outlining her figure exquisitely.
The men's eyes stared at Gu Jinli without blinking, and the women's low scolding sounded again.
"Phew, I don't know where to cover, I don't know shame!"
"Kitsune!"
Gu Huai didn't know what was going on, so he asked Gu Jinli with his eyes.
Gu Jinli shook her head and signaled that Gu Huai didn't have to worry.
The makeup on her face has long been washed away by water, and at this time, she has a beautiful plain makeup, which really responds to the sentence "Clear water out of hibiscus, natural carving".
Qi Hao glanced at Gu Jinli lightly, tilted his head and picked up vegetables for Yin Suwan.
Yin Suwan looked at Qi Hao secretly, and saw that he had no different color, and most of the unhappiness caused by Gu Jinli's "Phoenix Dance Nine Days" just now dissipated.
Facing Qi Hao's blindness, Gu Chengen's eyes were like ice blades.
At this time, the attendant whispered a few words in his ear, he pursed his lips, and then beckoned to the palace maid on the side.
Gu Jinli listened to Hua Qiong's reversal of black and white, and the smile between her lips was cold.
Although the emperor did not delve into Yin Suwan's broken leg at the beginning, who didn't know that the eighth prince Qi Ling was the emperor's heart?
Hua Qiong dared to slander herself, this is to send her to the guillotine!
Suddenly, I felt a warmth on my shoulders, and I only heard the palace maid whispering: "Concubine Gu, Gu Shilang said that you are weak, and asked the slave maid to add a piece of clothing to you." ”
With that, the little palace maid retreated.
Gu Jinli was stunned, and looked in the direction where Gu Chengen was sitting in surprise, but saw that his face was cold, as always, it was impossible to guess.
"Fortunately, the Eighth Emperor Brother is fine now, if Hua Qiong finds out a little later, the Eighth Emperor Brother will ...... He ...... Woo woo woo ......" Hua Qiong wiped her tears and choked up, while glaring at Gu Jinli fiercely, "Father, you must not spare her!" ”
Hua Qiong's words made the emperor's eyebrows jump suddenly.
"Slap", he slapped his big palm on the jade case, and said in annoyance: "Gu Jinxiu, why do you want to harm Xiaoba?" ”
"Princess Huaqiong, you can eat things indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense." Gu Jinli looked away from Gu Chengen, tightened the coat on her body, and blessed her body.
Her voice was neither loud nor small, but she sounded neither humble nor arrogant: "Everything must pay attention to human and material evidence, Jinxiu believes that the emperor Shengming will definitely not convict Jinxiu only based on Princess Huaqiong's words." ”
"Your Majesty, the courtiers are willing to testify!" Without waiting for Princess Huaqiong to winkle, Shen Biyun stood up and said indignantly: "The courtiers saw Gu Jinxiu push the Eighth Prince to the pond with her own eyes!" ”
"Sister Jiang is also present, which can prove that Gu Jinxiu is a murderer!" Shen Biyun pushed Yin Suwan's cousin Jiang Qinglan to the front of the hall again, and looked at Gu Jinli with a very proud look.
"Come on, pull Gu Jinxiu down to me!" The emperor exuded a sudden cold aura, and as his words fell, Li Huilong, the leader of the Praetorian Guard, rushed in with people.
"Stop!" A panting voice stopped the footsteps of several people, and also caused the emperor's ugly face to suddenly become excited.
