Yan Nanwan sat upright, and when she heard Cheng Ningzhi's words, a smile hung on the corner of her mouth.

When Yan Chengyi and Yan heard this, they were both shocked, and they all looked at Yan Nanwan.

Yan Nanwan smiled at them and signaled them to feel at ease.

Although the emperor didn't have much expression on his face, he was still annoyed in his heart, "Tell me why Yan Nanwan is not worthy of the Seventh Prince?"

Xue Yan also said coldly, "You'd better say a valid reason, otherwise this prince will punish you for the crime of slandering the royal family!"

"Lao Qi is a little restless, listen to Miss Cheng speak slowly. The fifth prince, Xue Li, spoke warmly.

Xue Yan snorted coldly, walked back to his seat, and sat next to Yan Nanwan.

Yan Nanwan tugged at his sleeve and said in a low voice, "No matter what happens for a while, don't interfere, I can solve it." After speaking, he seemed to be uneasy, and added, "Trust me!"

Xue Yan didn't know what was going on, and now was not a good time to ask, so he nodded, "If it doesn't work, don't hold it up, and me." ”

Yan Nanwan smiled, didn't answer, and said what he said.

Cheng Ningzhi glanced at Yan Nanwan, who was not afraid, and said loudly, "Your Majesty, Meng Xing, the second son of the Shangshu family of the Ministry of Officials, was killed by Yan Nanwan. ”

Her voice fell, and the hall began to talk in a loud voice.

At that time, Meng Xing's death was extremely obscene, and the official department Shangshu deliberately asked people to conceal Meng Xing's death, but no one in the capital knew that Meng Xing died of **, and secretly passed it on in private, and it had already been messed up.

Now that I heard Cheng Ningzhi say that Meng Xing was killed by Yan Nan late, everyone's eyes changed when they looked at her.

Only Yan Nanwan still had a faint smile on her face, her eyes fell on Cheng Ningzhi, and she didn't say a word.

The emperor was angry, this matter can be big or small, if it wasn't for the trouble, it could have been dealt with in a low-key manner, but now......

The official Shangshu got up and knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty, please be the master of the old minister!"

"Meng Aiqing, get up first, this matter has been investigated by Dali Temple, don't be anxious. The emperor appeased and looked at Cheng Ningzhi sharply, "Do you have any evidence?"

"The courtiers have proof. Cheng Ningzhi took out a letterhead from her arms and presented it with both hands, "This is the letterhead that Yan Nanwan contacted the person behind him, please see it, the emperor." ”

Gonggong Cui, who was standing beside the emperor, hurriedly walked down, took the letterhead, and presented it to the emperor.

The emperor opened it and looked at it, his face became worse and worse, and he slapped his hands on the table, "Yan Nanwan, can you confess?"

Yan Nanwan slowly got up from her position, walked to Cheng Ningzhi's side, and stood up straight, neither humble nor arrogant, "Isn't the emperor ready to listen to the courtiers and condemn the courtiers?"

"Okay, you say!" The emperor also realized his impulse at this time.

"How could Miss Cheng conclude that I wrote that letter?Miss Cheng had seen my handwriting?" Yan Nanwan smiled faintly and looked down at Cheng Ningzhi, "If Miss Cheng has not seen my handwriting and concludes that it was written by me, wouldn't it be too arbitrary." If Miss Cheng had seen my handwriting, then I would have to wonder if Miss Cheng had deliberately found someone to imitate my handwriting in order to frame me. ”

"You...... You quibble!" Cheng Ningzhi originally thought that her gentle and soft temperament would definitely mess up when she saw this kind of scene, but she didn't expect her to be so calm, "Your Majesty, you can find someone to test it." ”

The official secretary also agreed, "Your Majesty, you want to be the master for the old minister's son!"

Hearing Yan Nanwan say this, the emperor couldn't pay attention for a while, and glanced at Xue Yan with a gloomy face below, "Old Seven, what do you think?"

"The son listens to his father. ”

Since she wouldn't let herself interfere, he wouldn't.

"Come on, find someone to test!" the emperor said.

"Your Majesty, the courtiers have something to say. Yan Nanwan said unhurriedly, "The death of Second Prince Meng is indeed related to me. ”

"Nanwan, don't talk nonsense!" Yan Cheng said urgently.

Yan Nanwan smiled, "Daddy, this matter will be handled in a good way, you don't have to worry." Kneel, raise his head, and look firm, "Your Majesty, the second son of Meng was hung on the city wall before he died, and it was the courtiers who made him do it." The reason why the courtiers said that the death of the second prince Meng was related to the courtiers was just that she was worried that he would not be humiliated and committed suicide. However, that letter was never written by a courtier, and the emperor could have someone check it. ”

When the official Shangshu heard this, he looked sad and said hurriedly, "Your Majesty, she must have killed my son, Your Majesty, you must ......."

"Master Meng, you can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense!" Xue Yan's tone was gloomy, "Anyway, he is also a secretary of the ministry, and he should know that the judgment of the case must be based on real evidence." ”

Master Meng was stunned by Xue Yan for a while, lowered his head and stopped talking.

Cheng Ningzhi watched Xue Yan defend Yan Nanwan like this, unwilling, and courageous, "Your Majesty, even if this matter needs to be investigated again, Yan Nanwan should be sent to prison!"

After the emperor weighed it, he could only do so now, "Come on, put Yan Nanwan in the prison." ”

Yan fainted on the spot.

Yan Chengyi's face changed greatly, he got up and knelt in the center of the hall, "Your Majesty, Nanwan will never do such a thing, and please ask the emperor to take back his fate!"

"Father, the late son is the future princess of Erchen......"

"The Son of Heaven is guilty of the same crime as the common people, if the Seventh Emperor Concubine is really innocent, naturally there is no need to be afraid. "Lord Meng is humane.

The guards outside the hall walked in and were going to escort Yan Nanwan out.

Xue Yan was annoyed, picked up a pair of chopsticks, poured internal force into the hands of the two guards, straightened his robe casually and uninhibitedly, stood up, and walked slowly to Yan Nanwan, "Isn't it just going to the heavenly prison?

"The seventh is not allowed to mess around!" the emperor said.

Xue Yan smiled brightly, "Father, the sons and daughters are not messing around, the prison is full of rats and cockroaches, I'm afraid at night, I'll go and fight cockroaches for her." ”

Yan Nanwan shook his head lightly at him, signaling him not to get involved.

Xue Yanquan didn't see it, and shook her hand, "Let's go, a rare time for the two." When passing by Lord Qin's side, he said with a smile, "Lord Qin must find out the truth of the matter as soon as possible, and it will be too late to find out his innocence, otherwise if the prince of this prison is unhappy with his stay, he will demolish it for you sooner or later!"

Qin Zhao bent down and nodded, his heart trembled, thinking, this Seventh Prince can really find trouble for him!

The emperor knew Xue Yan's temperament well, so he went with him, instructed Qin Zhao to quickly find out about this matter, and appeased Yan Chengyi and Lord Meng, and the Dragon Boat Banquet was the beginning.

It was originally a good feast, but in the end, no one had this thought, and the emperor and the queen mother left early, leaving the queen to deal with it.

The crown prince and Zhao Heqian also left early, and the other princes and Tao Xiaobei were already tired of this kind of banquet, so they also got up and left.
