At dusk, Changle Fang Pond House.

Chi Changting turned over and dismounted, and while walking inside, he asked as usual, "What is the girl doing?" ”

The servant replied, "The girl has gone to the East Palace." ”

Chi Changting's footsteps stopped, and his face sank.

This girl is getting more and more unpleasant!

There is only one month left before the wedding, and I am still running to the East Palace! Can't wait?

I'm mad at him!

"Come back and call her to me!" Chi Changting flicked his sleeves coldly and returned to the study.

Not long after entering the house and sitting down, Chi Tang came back.

"What are you doing in the East Palace again?" Chi Changting asked with a calm face.

Chi Tang's face was not good-looking, and while entering the house with anxious steps, he said angrily: "Daddy, do you know?" Yu Shitai tortured Uncle Xiao! ”

Chi Changting's body stiffened slightly, nodded, and said "hmm".

"The trial hasn't started yet, who gave them the guts to torture the fifth uncle! Fortunately, Ah Tong was also there at the time and sent the news out...... I originally wanted to go to the Imperial Prison to have a look, but the people from the Xiao family and the Xue family arrived, so I didn't go in and went to the East Palace instead...... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't know who it is yet-" The more Chi Tang spoke, the more angry he became, and he unconsciously clenched his fists and waved, "Daddy! Which traitor do you say wants to kill Uncle Xiao? ”

"Ahem, cough, cough ......" Chi Changting suddenly choked and coughed.

Chi Tang hurriedly stepped forward and smoothed his back.

Chi Changting relieved himself, glared at her, and reprimanded: "If you don't know anything, you know that you are a traitor?" ”

Chi Tang sniffed out that something was wrong, looked at his father thoughtfully for a while, and asked quietly, "Daddy, it can't be you who did it, right?" ”

Chi Changting was confident: "Do you understand the bitter meat plan?" ”

Chi Tang thought for a while and asked, "Have you told His Royal Highness the Crown Prince about the bitter meat plan?" ”

Chi Changting calmly drank tea: "The prince has a lot of opportunities, so you don't have to bother him for such a trivial matter!" ”

Chi Tang frowned and said, "You gave Fifth Uncle Xiao bitter meat without saying hello?" We all thought it was Wei Ningzhi or someone from the Gao family who did it! ”

Chi Changting smiled.

That's right!

Chi Tang blinked and asked in a low voice again, "Daddy, you don't just want to frame them, right?" ”

Chi Changting's eyebrows twitched: "Can the words used on my father be better?" ”

Chi Tang let out an "oh" and asked, "Daddy, do you want to make the Duke of Jinling hate them and never be with them again?" ”

Chi Changting nodded with satisfaction.

Although I didn't think about it at the time, I was very happy that my daughter was so good at finding an explanation for him.

"But you nailed Wei Ningzhi to death so quickly, right? Our relationship with Mrs. Wei is okay, and I think Wei Ningzhi may be able to save it. Chitang said.

"I have my own ideas," Chi Changting said inscrutablely, his tone paused slightly, and he commanded, "Tomorrow you and Lan Ze will go to visit Xiao Wu together!" ”

This is as it should be, Chi Tang nodded obediently, and then heard him say again: "By the way, tell him that the list of kings and concubines has been passed out in the Liangyi Palace——"

"Who is it?" Chi Tang's heart suddenly lifted.

How can such a big thing be incidental?

Chi Changting smiled and said, "Princess Shu, it's still the little girl of the Xiao family!" ”

When Chi Tang heard this, he was anxious: "Daddy-"

"What's the hurry?" Chi Changting said leisurely, "It's just that the news has come out, and it hasn't been decided yet, the news is just right at this time, the Xiao family is angry, beat their people, and want to marry their daughter?" Maybe in a fit of anger, Lan Ze's chance will come. ”

The Xiao family originally wanted the whole clan to survive and protect the emperor on the surface, but in fact they didn't dare to offend the East Palace.

But now that the best children of the clan have been yin, what will happen next, even Chi Changting can't guarantee it.

But what he never expected was that it wasn't Xiao Shi who happened first.

The next day, Chi Tang and Chi Lanze went to visit Xiao Zhuo, and when they were talking about the selection of the princess of Shu, a red-clothed chamberlain suddenly came, saying that the Liangyi Palace had summoned them.

Chi Tang was not at ease and followed in.

In the hall of two ceremonies, there was a person she did not expect.

"Xiao Sheren didn't kill King Zhao!"

"I've been with the Xiao Sheren that night, and the forbidden army led by the Xiao Sheren was borrowed by me from stealing my grandfather's seal—"

And Xiao Zhuo's purpose in leading the forbidden army became a loyal escort.

Naturally, no one will believe this kind of nonsense.

But it doesn't matter believe it or not, what matters is having an alibi.

This trial lasted until the evening.

Everyone walked out of the palace gate in twos and threes.

Chi Tang waited for the East Palace to step forward, but fell last.

In front of him, Xiao Zhuo was dressed in white, his black hair was scattered behind him, and he walked in a vague manner with the support of his brother Xiao Yi, looking at me and seeing pity.

Chi Tang was a little distressed, and quietly asked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince beside him: "Where is Xiao Wulang injured?" Is it serious? ”

Li Yan said lightly: "It's just that I have two whips on my back—"

Before the words fell, Princess Chi "hissed", as if she was the one who was beaten.

"The whip hurts! The shirt was beaten...... "Chi Tang was even more distressed, "Your Highness asked Doctor Shang to get him some medicine, right?" ”

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not want to speak.

Chi Tang didn't notice His Royal Highness the Prince's small emotions, and when he saw the palace gate, he hurriedly said, "Stop, I still have something to say to Xiao Wulang!" ”

After taking a step, he caught a glimpse of Xue Zheng waiting outside the palace gate, and then retracted his footsteps-

……

As soon as Xue Zheng saw Xiao Zhuo, he greeted him and asked, "How is it?" ”

"Thanks to Miss Xie for testifying,......" Xiao Zhuo looked back with a complicated expression.

Xie Wan was still far behind, supporting the eldest princess Feng Yi who entered the palace with her.

Although the eldest princess Feng Yi accompanied Xie Wan into the palace together, she never said a word from beginning to end, and at this time, her face was still expressionless, and she didn't know whether she was happy or angry.

I don't know what to do with Xie Wan, who has destroyed her reputation today, after returning to Xie Mansion.

Xiao Zhuo sighed lightly, withdrew his gaze, and said in a low voice: "I still need to pass the trial in the future, but I don't have to go to prison again." ”

"You don't have to go to jail?" Xue Zheng looked at Xie Wan in surprise.

Miss Xie is so hard? Did you save Xiao Zhuo by yourself?

Just thinking about it, his vision was blocked by a walled body.

raised his eyes slightly, and what he saw was Wei Ningzhi's smiling face.

Xue Zheng's heart sank, why is this guy here? Didn't you go in and fall into the well again?

"General Wei made a statement to His Majesty, saying that since the evidence is insufficient, he should not be detained and imprisoned." Xiao Zhuo not only has a complicated look now, but also has a very complicated mood.

It was Wei Ningzhi who sent him to prison, and it was Wei Ningzhi who rescued him from prison.

Should this be thanked or not?

Xue Zheng frowned and glanced at Wei Ningzhi, and said to Xiao Zhuo: "That's fine, go back and take care of it, don't take it lightly." ”

Xiao Zhuo said yes with a smile.

was being helped by his brother to get into the car, but he heard a sweet voice behind him: "Xiao Wulang stay!" ”

When he turned around, he saw that in front of the prince's steps, Princess Chi was walking towards him quickly.

He walked up to him, but he didn't speak directly.

Xue Zheng bowed silently and left.

followed by Wei Ningzhi and Xie Wan.

It wasn't until Xiao Yi also took a few steps back that Chi Tang whispered: "There was a candidate for Princess Wei just now, and I didn't say-"
