Chapter Twenty-Five: Silence

After she found Fu Taiqing, she carefully pre-drew the bow and arrow, and there was only one Mingqing, and there was only one chance.

After she pre-pulled, she aimed at Fu Taiqing with one eye and took off the string.

Ming Shen pierced Fu Taiqing's throat and died on the spot. Because the speed of the string was too fast, when Ming Shen pierced Fu Taiqing's throat, he didn't bleed too much.

Not long after the banquet began, Fu Taiqing was assassinated.

Everyone was frightened, "Someone, escort, escort." Grandpa Hu next to His Majesty shouted.

Soon the guards came in to escort them.

Beiran and Nangong sat opposite Fu Taiqing, and the arrow was stuck in Fu Taiqing's neck. Nangong could recognize the arrow at a glance, it was Mingjiao.

After Nangong Tianyu saw that it was Mingxuan, he left his seat and walked to Fu Taiqing's side.

Her move made Shu Yao, who was standing behind, very nervous. Because she also recognized it at a glance, it was Mingyi.

The Taiqing around Fu Taiqing were all far away, and only Nangong Tianqing dared to approach.

Fu Taiqing died on the spot, and even His Majesty was frightened.

When Nangong Tanyu approached Fu Taiqing, the eyes of everyone present were staring at her tightly.

With trembling hands, she pulled the arrow out of it without hesitation. After pulling out the arrow, blood sprayed Nangong and poured all over his body, and even there were some blood droplets on his face.

Her action frightened everyone present, including Bei Ran.

"Princess North, why is this?" Emperor Wan asked.

Nangong Tingxuan did not answer the words of Emperor Wan's concubine, but held Mingxuan tightly with her hand, and her hand kept trembling.

Taiqing on the side was all saying, "This princess of the North is so cruel that she pulled out the arrow directly." ”

When Nangong Tianxuan pulled out the arrow, Beiran knew that the arrow that killed Fu Taiqing was her Mingxuan.

"Your Majesty, this Northern Princess cares so much about this arrow that killed Fu Taiqing, could it be that Princess Beibei is the one who killed Fu Taiqing?"

Emperor Wan's concubine added oil and vinegar at this time, just to make everyone present think that Nangong was the one who killed Fu Taiqing.

Nangong Qian slowly looked at Emperor Wan's concubine, and said with a blank look in her eyes, "Emperor Wan's concubine doesn't want to frame her concubines." Her voice trembled.

Emperor Wan's concubine sneered, "If it weren't for Princess Bei killing Fu Taiqing, why did you pull out that arrow without hesitation?" ”

Taiqing, who was standing on the side, echoed, "That is, if it wasn't for the princess of the north, why did you care so much about that arrow." ”

Bei Ran saw that the situation was not good, so he walked to Nangong Tian's side and said for her, "The princess has been studying in the palace for these days and has never gone out. Moreover, the princess and Fu Taiqing did not know each other, why did they kill Fu Taiqing. Please ask my father to take a look. ”

His Majesty has always liked Nangong Dumpling very much, so he naturally believes in her. But her actions at this time have to be suspicious.

His Majesty did not speak, just watched.

"Huh." Emperor Wan's concubine sneered, "Princess Bei has been studying in the palace? What to learn? Isn't it learning archery, researching to make one-of-a-kind arrows? ”

The imperial concubine kept adding oil and vinegar.

"Emperor Wan has been in the palace all along, how did she know that the princess was shooting arrows in the middle school of the palace and researching to make unique arrows?" Bei Ran's words turned the spearhead to Emperor Wan's concubine.

Emperor Wan's concubine said unhurriedly, "The princess has been learning archery and making arrows for a few days. The whole palace is up and down, who doesn't know? ”

"Even if the entire palace knows about it, then why is the Imperial Concubine Wan in the palace so clear?"

"Shouldn't the King of the North be obsessed with why the palace knows, but should be worried about the princess."

This time it became that Beiran was quarreling with Emperor Wan.

"Enough, Princess North hasn't said anything, but the two of you have quarreled." His Majesty roared.

"Nangong Tilt, I ask you, why do you care so much about that arrow?"

Nangong tilted his head and looked at His Majesty, and said slowly, "Back to my father, the arrow that killed Fu Taiqing is the arrow that the concubine just made recently." ”

"What?! Why do you make arrows? ”

"The concubine only came to learn archery recently, and she was interested in arrows, so she made this arrow." She explained.

"You ......." His Majesty was so angry that he had nothing to say.

Seeing that His Majesty was so angry that she had nothing to say, Emperor Wan and Concubine Wan came to say, "Is this arrow unique?" Emperor Wan looked at Nangong and asked.

Nangong Qian glanced at Beiran, then looked at Emperor Wan's concubine, did not speak, only nodded.

"Your Majesty, Princess Bei, she admits that she killed Fu Taiqing, please ask Your Majesty to punish you."

As soon as Emperor Wan's words came out, Nangong Qian stared at Emperor Wan's concubine deadly, "When did the concubine admit that Fu Taiqing was killed by the concubine?" She suppressed her anger.

"Since that arrow is unique, it means that you are the only one who has that arrow, and no one else has it. Who else but you can use this arrow? ”

"Even if this arrow is unique, it doesn't mean that it was killed by a concubine. The arrow is unique, but the concubine has been in the Xuyang Palace all night and has never left, so how can she kill Fu Taiqing? The arrow is unique, but it does not mean that people with ulterior motives used the arrows of the concubine to kill Fu Taiqing. ”

Nangong poured out his anger as he spoke, and without suppressing his emotions, he yelled at Emperor Wan's concubine.

Emperor Wan's concubine sneered and said unhurriedly, "Princess Bei is so angry, isn't she a thief?" ”

Emperor Wan's family has some forces in the court, so it is natural that they will echo it.

"Your Majesty, please punish the crime immediately."

"Your Majesty, please punish the crime immediately."

These two Taiqing are the forces of the Wanhuang Guifei family. Once they also echo it, then other Taiqing will also follow suit.

"Father, just because the princess made arrows doesn't mean that she is the one who killed Fu Taiqing!" Beiran said loudly.

His Majesty is also in a dilemma, on one side is his most trusted Fu Taiqing, and on the other hand, he is his favorite Nangong Dumpling.

Seeing that His Majesty had not made a decision, the Taiqing kept echoing, "Please punish Your Majesty immediately." ”

"Father, the concubine really didn't kill Fu Taiqing." She watched the princesses echo, and she panicked.

"Father, Nangong has been in the palace since she was a child, what kind of person is she, what kind of person should you know." Beiran said loudly.

Emperor Wanfei stood aside, watching them panic, but she was very calm.

Your Majesty has lost the most trusted Taiqing, and Your Majesty will definitely be guilty because he can't stand the support of the Taiqing.

His Majesty hesitated for a long time, "Someone is coming, take Princess Bei to the prison and wait for treatment." ”

Beiran thought that His Majesty had hesitated for so long and would make a different decision. But I didn't expect that he was still him, and he really hadn't changed at all.

After His Majesty gave the order, four guards came in and dragged Nangong Dumpling into the prison.

Just when Nangong was about to be dragged away by the guards, Shu Yao ran out, knelt on the ground, and cried, "Your Majesty, Miss will never be the one who killed Taiqing, please Your Majesty will be aware of it!" ”

"Your Majesty, that handmaid is the personal handmaid of Princess Bei, maybe she is also an accomplice."

not only put Nangong Dumping into the prison, but also got Shu Yao in, worthy of being the concubine of Emperor Wan.

His Majesty was moved, "Take her down and lock her up." ”

Nangong didn't expect Shu Yao to run out and plead with His Majesty.

"Father, Shu Yao doesn't know anything!" Nangong shouted.

"Drag it off." His Majesty roared.

Your Majesty never expected that these things would happen at the banquet on his birthday.

"It's all gone!" Your Majesty is powerless.

After the loyal ministers retired, only Beiran and His Majesty were left in the entire Xuyang Palace.

"Why aren't you leaving?" His Majesty asked.

"Father, you know that Nangong is not the murderer of Fu Taiqing, why do you still do this?" He was not convinced.

"The evidence is conclusive, what else do you have to defend?"

"Father, don't you like Nangong Dumpling very much? Don't you know what kind of person she is? ”

"That's enough." His Majesty yelled, "If you think that Nangong has been wronged, you can, I will give you ten days." If you can't find the real murderer after ten days, then Nangong Tilting will cut off her head and bury Fu Taiqing. ”

"Erchen has one more request."

"Say."

"The retainers must be able to enter and leave the prison at any time."

"That's right."

Beiran did not return to the Beiwang Mansion, but went to Mo Ran's Mojin Palace.

At this banquet, Mo Ran and Yu Ran did not see it.

Because that arrow was shot at Fu Taiqing from nowhere, there was no way to narrow the range, so it could only block the entire palace.

After Lianxin shot Fu Taiqing with an arrow, she didn't leave the roof, because the arrow she shot couldn't tell which direction it was shot from. So she watched from the roof as something was happening in the temple.

She watched all this from the rooftop, and realized that Emperor Wan's concubine asked her to monitor Nangong Dumpling's every move in order to take advantage of Fu Taiqing's death and frame Nangong Dumpling.

All this has happened, and she can only hope that Bei Ran can rescue Nangong Tianxuan.

——

Nangong and Shu Yao were locked up in the prison, which was very cold and cold.

Shu Yao was very scared and kept silently holding back tears.

Because it was very cold in the prison, Nangong and Shu Yao hugged each other to keep warm.

"Do you think we're going to be beheaded?" Shu Yao asked, sobbing.

"I don't know. If it's really dead, then it's all over. Nangong said coldly.

Shu Yao could hear her say very coldly, so she looked up at her. In fact, she was more scared than anyone else, more panicked than anyone else, but she was just calm on the surface.

"At that time, didn't you tell me that you wanted to know the real Nangong dumping? I've figured it out, I'll tell you now! ”

"Yes."

"Actually, my young lady was supposed to be like you, very lively. But because of Nangong Mansion, she had to become submissive. I still remember that when Miss was at her liveliest, it was also her last. If it weren't for the fact that the young lady made some fuss, the old man beat the young lady. Maybe Miss is like you now, she can do whatever she wants. ”

Shu Yao tried very hard to suppress her emotions.

"Why did she become submissive because of Nangong Mansion?" Nangong was puzzled.

"Nangong Mansion is one of the richest businessmen in Beiliang, although it is a wealthy businessman, but the young lady often goes in and out of the palace. You also know that there are many rules in the palace, and if there is a slight mistake, your life will be gone. Because he often goes in and out of the palace, the master never lets the young lady do what he wants to do. The master invited a lot of masters to the young lady, so that the young lady became proficient and knowledgeable. If the young lady resists, or does not listen, then the old man will whip the young lady. ”

Although Shu Yao tried very hard to suppress her emotions, she still talked and shed tears.

"But doesn't Nangong Dumpling often go in and out of the palace? Then he whipped her with a whip and didn't leave a scar on her? ”

"So, in order not to leave a scar, the master asked her to do it, and she did everything very well."

Nangong poured tears, and when he heard this, it was easy to shed tears.

"Then she knew that she was going to marry Bei Ran, so she jumped into the pool?" Nangong Tilting suddenly thought of this.

Shu Yao shook her head, "No, Miss is not such a person who can't think about it. Although the young lady has no love for the prince, they play and say, they can naturally get along in harmony. ”

"Then what's going on with Nangong pouring into the pool?" She couldn't help but ask.

Shu Yao didn't know why. How did it fall into the pool?

"You say, will the prince help us out?"

"It's hard to say. I don't usually give him any good looks. ”
