Hearing Huo Lingxiao's words, several people breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, but some people were happy and some were worried.

After the Queen Mother heard Huo Lingxiao's words, her face was still very dark, and she said coldly: "Then you should tell me, who will change the sword, and who wants to assassinate the mourning family?" ”

Wei Xiyue glanced at Wei Feiyu, "When Xiyue went to change her clothes, she found that the costume used to prepare for the performance was maliciously torn, and now someone has changed Xiyue's sword, Xiyue seems that that person is afraid that he does not want to assassinate the Queen Mother, but wants to make Xiyue make a fool of herself in front of the Queen Mother, so she did this, so as to achieve her goal." ”

"With all that said, do you have any suspicions?"

"Yes." Wei Xiyue said coldly: "Since King Guangling handed over the sword to me, except for the halfway point, Xiyue has always kept the sword in his hand. ”

The meaning is already very clear, and the person who changed the sword is between Wei Feiyu and Wei Nijia. But Wei Feiyu never even touched the sword...... Well, the answer is clear.

Wei Nijia saw that the form was wrong, and immediately ran out to defend herself: "Queen Mother, listen to my explanation......"

"Get on your knees!" The queen scolded, "Say, did you drop your bag when you took the sword just now?" ”

Wei Nijia was stunned by the queen, and tears came out in an instant when she knelt on the ground, she shook her head while crying, "No, no, I didn't." ”

The queen frowned, and her tone was stern: "Then you mean that the dignified King Guangling will frame you?" ”

"I ......" Wei Nijia was speechless for a while, she cried more and more, but she didn't dare to make a sound, she kept enduring, like a clown.

"Queen Mother, the courtiers think that she can't do this alone, and it is not easy to secretly exchange swords in public, so she must be ......" There are accomplices to attract everyone's attention.

"Enough!" The old lady sitting below suddenly spoke, perhaps she sensed Wei Xiyue's meaning, and couldn't help but interrupt her. "Wei Xiyue, aren't you ashamed enough? Stop it! ”

Don't let her confess Fei Yu.

Wei Xiyue sneered, she knew.

But she didn't pay attention to the old lady, and turned to Wei Nijia and said, "Nidja, you have thought carefully about what a big thing it is to assassinate. Although God bless the Queen Mother, if you carry it down, it will be a crime of killing your head. Wei Xiyue deliberately picked up a big charge and said that she wanted to scare Wei Nijia.

Sure enough, Wei Nijia trembled.

"I ......" Wei Nijia hesitated again and again, and finally spoke, but as soon as she looked up, she saw the old lady's threatening eyes, which frightened Wei Nijia to freeze in place, and even forgot to cry, but opened her mouth but couldn't make a sound.

Just when Wei Nijia was silent, the replaced sword appeared under Wei Nijia's seat, and now it was okay, and everyone got the stolen goods.

Even if Wei Nijia has a hundred mouths, she can't argue.

"Say! Is there anyone who is in accomplice? The queen scolded sternly.

Wei Nijia gritted her teeth and shook her head slowly.

"I didn't ...... No. Nidya did everything herself. ”

"Wei Nijia, Wei Nijia, our Wei family is not thin on you, how can you do such a thing?" The old lady immediately said sadly.

Wei Feiyu also spoke: "Nidja, how can you do such a thing? Do you know that this will hurt Sister Xiyue? ”

Everyone was relieved, heartbroken, and angry, only Wei Xiyue looked indifferent and didn't say anything.

I only heard Wei Nijia's tone trembling: "It's because of Wei Xiyue, she is in the limelight everywhere, and she has unlimited scenery outside with the identity of a Wei family's daughter, but a third-room lady like us who has no money and no power, don't want to have a bright future in her life, so I just want to ...... However, I wanted to make her ugly before, and I never thought of assassinating the Queen Mother. ”

Wei Nijia climbed up to Wei Xiyue and pulled her sleeve.

"Sister Xiyue, Nijia knows that she is wrong, Sister Xiyue, you can help me and the Queen Mother intercede." Wei Nijia saw that Wei Xiyue was expressionless, and she crawled to the old lady again, "Old lady, Nijia knows that she is wrong...... Nidya ......"

"Wei Nijia! You still have the face to plead, you ...... It's just a shame on my Wei family. ”

Wei Nijia seemed to have no support for a moment, thinking of a puppet with a broken string and slumping to the ground.

"Someone."

"The Queen Mother." No one expected that it was Wei Xiyue who spoke, "Nijia is still young and ignorant, I hope the Queen Mother can forgive Nijia this time." ”

Huo Lingxiao also followed: "Yes, after all, the Queen Mother, you have nothing to do. As he spoke, he quietly hid his injured hand.

Then Huo Zeshen: "Besides, this matter is thrilling and dangerous, which shows that the Queen Mother is deeply blessed, and even God has to protect the Queen Mother." This does not prove that God has the virtue of a good life, so the Queen Mother should also follow God's will. Huo Zeshen shook in front of the Queen Mother with a smile on his face, and made a grimace to please the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother was finally amused by Huo Zeshen, sighed and waved her hand: "That's it, then you will be punished for copying the Good Chanting Sutra a hundred times." ”

Wei Nijia was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly kowtowed.

"Empress Dowager Longen."

But this banquet can't go on, and everyone is gone.

When she left by boat, there was one more person by Wei Feiyu's side.

"I said that you are too bold, I would have known that I would not have promised you to go to the Queen Mother for you to say that Wei Xiyue is not, and you shouldn't cut any clothes for you. Who knew you were going to do this, what if you exposed you today? ”

"I know what I know."

"You! Forget it, let's do it for yourself. ”

And on the other side -

"Third prince, are you alright? Does your hand still hurt? ”

Wei Xiyue looked at the injury on Huo Lingxiao's hand worriedly, and asked a little worriedly.

Huo Lingxiao shook his head, "It's okay, it's you." I was just about to worry about you to death, you know? ”

Faced with Huo Lingxiao's sudden seriousness, Wei Xiyue didn't know how to answer, but said awkwardly: "I don't know." ”

“……”

The atmosphere was extremely awkward.

In the end, Wei Xiyue sighed, and then said, "I know, I will pay attention to it in the future, and I won't worry you anymore." ”

"Hmm......" Huo Lingxiao was about to say something more when he saw Huo Zeshen running over.

"What's wrong with Eleven? In such a hurry? ”

Huo Zeshen glanced at Huo Lingxiao, pulled Wei Xiyue over, and said as he walked, "Sister Xiyue, the Queen Mother called you over." ”

Wei Xiyue was puzzled, "Is it just me?" ”

Then Huo Zeshen reluctantly said: "There is also the imperial brother." ”

Huo Lingxiao frowned, how could he feel as if he smelled a smell of vinegar?

Cining Palace——

The Queen Mother smiled and waited for the three of them to come over, and after seeing the three of them saluting, she gave them a seat and sat down.

"Miss Wei." The Queen Mother looked at Wei Xiyue with a light smile, "I have long heard that Miss Wei is talented, and today it is really better to see than to hear." ”

I don't know why, Wei Xiyue always felt that there was something in the Queen Mother's words.

But she didn't say anything, just modestly prevaricated.

"But the mourners are curious, how do you know that the sword is fake? The mourning family doesn't seem to be any different, huh? ”

Hearing the Queen Mother ask this question, Wei Xiyue smiled lightly: "The texture is different." Although the appearance of the two swords is almost identical, however, it is almost. There are also different places. ”

"Where?" The Queen Mother also came curiously and wanted to know what was going on.

Wei Xiyue nodded and continued: "There are several decorations on the sword on King Guangling's side that are made of Night Pearl, and that sword is just a different gem, so it feels different in your hand. And that night the pearl will emit a soft light, when she came back from outside, Xiyue specially observed it, and then after the sword was broken, Xiyue sank down and looked at it carefully, and found that there was no one on it. ”

Speaking of this, not only the Queen Mother, but even Huo Lingxiao and Huo Zeshen were a little surprised, but they didn't expect Wei Xiyue to calm down and think in such a panicked situation.

Especially Huo Lingxiao, his own sword has to be recognized for a long time before it can be discovered, so Wei Xiyue seems to be more familiar with his own sword than him.

Wei Xiyue smiled, "Actually, there is another reason. And the most important reason. ”

"What?" This time, Huo Lingxiao couldn't wait to know.

"Because...... I know that King Guangling will not give me a sword that has been tampered with. ”

Actually, the most important thing is because I believe in you.

It's like everybody is questioning me and you still believe me.

Wei Xiyue looked at Huo Lingxiao's eyes as if she was saying this.

Huo Zeshen couldn't understand what the two of them were doing, but he felt a little unhappy, so he stood between the two people.

"Sister Xiyue is amazing." Huo Zeshen finished filming Wei Xiyue's sycophant and went to pat the queen mother's sycophant, "The queen mother is too, wise and merciful!" ”

caused the Queen Mother to smile and squint.

"Queen Mother, I told you that Miss Wei is a very clever and talented woman." Huo Lingxiao glanced at Wei Xiyue, and then continued: "I know that some people have said enough disobedience from the Queen Mother, but I think today's incident should make those words disappear from the Queen Mother's heart." If you let go of your prejudices, you will find that Xiyue is really a good girl. ”

Wei Xiyue, who was praised inexplicably, was a little confused, and her stunned appearance was actually very cute.

The Queen Mother also nodded after hearing this, "The mourning family understands a sentence today - hearing is false, seeing is believing." Miss Wei, I couldn't help it before. ”

Wei Xiyue smiled slightly, and got up to give a blessing.

"The Queen Mother is serious, and it is Xiyue's blessing to leave a good impression in the Queen Mother's heart."

After a few greetings, Huo Lingxiao was about to take Wei Xiyue to retreat, and said that he would personally send Wei Xiyue home.

Wei Xiyue thought that Huo Lingxiao was talking about fun, but he didn't expect that he really followed Wei Xiyue all the way to Xuanwu Gate.

"Three princes, you don't have to be so ......"

Huo Lingxiao raised his eyebrows, and his tone was a little careless: "You think I want to, it's just that now is the time of the palace ban, and you can't get out without me." ”

Wei Xiyue sighed and resigned herself to letting Huo Lingxiao send him, but said that she would not let Huo Lingxiao follow her after leaving the Xuanwu Gate.

Huo Lingxiao pursed his lips, and the two walked together under the moonlight.
