"Queen Mother, please believe me, I have never done anything to hurt my sister, but my sister, the last time I went back to my parents' house, I didn't know what to say to my father, that day, my father grounded me, but I didn't do anything."

The Queen Mother looked at Wen Dongling's sincere look and felt that she didn't look like a liar, but King Rui was also defending Princess Rui, and for a while, she didn't know which side was right.

Chu Hongze wanted to say something more, but when the Queen Mother saw this, she interrupted him: "King Rui, you are not allowed to meddle in this matter, I want to see what the truth of this matter is." ”

The Queen Mother heard the emperor mention this Princess Rui a few days ago, saying that she was helping King Rui deal with some difficult cases, and she was still a little curious about what such a woman would be like, but today, they just met a few times, and they encountered such a situation.

She will not favor her for the sake of the woman's pity, and of course she will not believe her indiscriminately because of the identity of Princess Rui, she only believes in the evidence.

"Father, grandmother." Wen Ruyi saluted the emperor and the queen mother, "Dong Ling said that I accidentally slipped by the lake today and fell into the lake, and deliberately pulled her by the hand, just to kill her?" But Imperial Grandmother, I am not good at water, and I put my life into it in order to kill her, do you think I will be so stupid? ”

Before the people present could speak, Wen Ruyi continued: "I didn't have a mother when I was a child, and then my father remarried, I thought I would regain my childhood maternal love, but I didn't expect my stepmother to always want to put me to death, this family can't tolerate me, and then I have a sister, I thought this sister would be different from her biological mother, but I didn't expect that she also joined forces with her mother to frame me again and again, if it weren't for my life, maybe I wouldn't have met Hongze." ”

How pitiful and pitiful these words were, the early death of her biological mother, the bullying of her stepmother and stepsister, but no one helped her, she just wanted to get rid of her earlier, and she shed tears as she spoke.

Who wouldn't pretend to be pitiful? Joke, she used to participate in acting competitions when she was in school, and that's it, it's a piece of cake.

"You're talking nonsense, it's clearly you."

Wen Dongling pointed at Wen Ruyi, completely ignoring his beautiful image.

"Okay, I know you won't believe it just by what I say, but..."Wen Ruyi looked around, "someone must have seen what happened on our side just now, did anyone stand up and testify?" ”

No one has come forward, it would be a fool to come out and stand in line at this time, although Princess Rui has an advantage in this situation, but the Queen Mother and the Emperor have not yet expressed their opinions, so the best way now is to remain silent.

However, Wen Ruyi would not let them get their wish, she stretched out her hand and pointed to the servant girl she had seen when she walked to the lake, and the handmaid who was suddenly named turned pale, and then someone around her pushed her.

"I just saw you, you are not far from us, tell me what you have seen and heard, if you lie, you will be beaten to death with a stick in the future."

The servant girl looked at Wen Ruyi, and then at Wen Dongling, her heart was very entangled, these two masters didn't seem to be easy to mess with, and what she said might not be right.

Wen Ruyi's words just now, especially the sentence of beating to death with a stick, still had some effect, and the little maid was obviously frightened.

Wen Ruxiang walked over to her and patted her on the shoulder: "Don't be afraid, just tell the truth." ”

The little maid raised her lowered head and glanced at Wen Ruyi: "Yes... It was this girl who pushed the princess down. ”

"Don't talk nonsense, you little."

Wen Dongling suddenly rushed over like crazy and was about to beat the servant, how could Wen Ruyi let her succeed, she stretched out her hand to stop her.

"Go on!"

"I heard... Hearing... She said let the princess... Go... Die! ”

Wen Dongling's face is like a palette now, it is very exciting, she immediately went to see the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother was looking at her, and she lowered her head weakly.

"Wen Dongling, what else do you have to explain?"

The Queen Mother was furious.

"Queen Mother, it's not me, it's really not me, it's Wen Ruyi, it's her who wants to frame me."

"Come on, bring it down."

Things are at a climax, and they are also exciting, when a father-in-law came over and whispered twice in the emperor's ear, and the emperor nodded.

"Queen Mother, Chen'er is here."

As soon as the words fell, Chu Hongchen's voice came.

"Father, grandmother, Chen'er is late."

When Chu Hongchen spoke, he saw the woman who was being pressed by the guards at a glance, Wen Dongling? What's wrong with her?

"Chen'er came just in time, I'll go to the banquet with the imperial grandmother later." After speaking, she looked at Wen Dongling, who was being pressed, "This matter will end here, press her down." ”

Wen Dongling was still begging for help, and his tone was completely devoid of the steadiness he had just now.

"Grandmother Huang, slowly."

The Queen Mother looked at Chu Hongchen who was talking suspiciously, and the guards who were pressing Wen Dongling also stopped.

"Imperial grandmother, grandson may ask, did Dong Ling commit something?"

The Queen Mother frowned, what? Does the prince know this woman?

"Chen'er knows her?

"The last time I went out of the palace, I met it, and it was this girl who saved her grandson's life.

Wen Ruyi sneered, what these two people do behind their backs is of the same nature, who is kinder than whom?

"Oh? And this layer of relationship? ”

The Queen Mother really couldn't believe that such a woman was Chu Hongchen's life-saving benefactor, and such a narrow-minded woman with a bad stomach would still help others? It's really suspicious.

"Well, Dong Ning is indeed his grandson's sensitive benefactor, he paused in a tone, and continued: "If Dong Ning's mistake is not very big, can the imperial grandmother see her grandson's face and let her go, besides, today is the imperial grandmother's birthday, it is not appropriate to see blood." ”

Everyone present was stunned, one second, everyone thought that this woman would be taken away and executed, but the next second, no one thought that the prince would intercede for this woman.

The Queen Mother was a little displeased, no matter what Wen Dongling said, she made a mistake, although she did not die, but she should also be punished.

As a result, as soon as Chu Hongchen pleaded for mercy halfway, this matter was not easy to solve, but what he said was also reasonable, today is a happy day, and it is not good to see blood.

"Okay, then for the sake of the prince's face, spare her life, but the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped." The Queen Mother knew that if Wen Dongling didn't escape at all, it would be unreasonable, "Take it down and lead the ten boards to teach a lesson, I wonder if Ze'er and Ruyi can agree?" ”

Although Wen Dongling felt dissatisfied in his heart, because of the prince's intercession, this was already the lightest punishment, but he didn't know if Wen Ruyi would forgive himself.

"Grandchildren listen to Ruyi's opinion."

Now everyone's eyes are focused on Wen Ruyi's body, she promises now, she can't get over it in her heart, it would be great if she could take this opportunity to get rid of Wen Dongling, but if she didn't agree, even if she would save the face of the queen mother and the prince, would she still have a choice?

"Ruyi listens to the emperor's grandmother."

"Okay, so be it."

The Queen Mother got up, everyone followed suit, the emperor followed, and looked at Wen Ruyi a few times before leaving, but the latter didn't pay much attention.

When everyone moved to the banquet hall, Chu Hongze left with Wen Ruyi and the group around him on the pretext of taking Wen Ruyi to change clothes.

"Why did you make yourself like this without seeing you for a while, this king thought you could solve it, but I didn't expect that this king overestimated you."

Wen Ruyi was angry, she fell into the water, just now he listened to his imperial grandmother's words, he really didn't help her, fortunately she was smart, otherwise, she would have been unjustly killed.

As a result, he came over with a burst of ridicule?

"If you don't help me, forget it, you're still talking cool here at this time, you have no conscience."

"In that situation just now, if this king continues to talk about it, the imperial grandmother will not care about the truth and will take you away directly."

Although what Chu Hongze said was the truth, Wen Ruyi still felt angry, it may be that between the two of them recently, Chu Hongze would always let her, so this time it yelled at her and blamed her, she felt very wronged.

"Don't say anything, I'm going to change my clothes."

Hearing this, Bai Zhi, who had been standing behind her, handed over the new clothes she had prepared, and she took the clothes into the room and immediately changed them.

After that, there was not much communication between the two. They all seem to be sulking at each other.

And Wen Dongling, who suffered some flesh and skin after being taken away, has now become more and more resentful of Wen Ruyi, and after being punished, she was taken to Chu Hongchen's palace.

Wen Dongling waited there for a while, and Chu Hongze came back after finishing the birthday banquet.

"Why don't you sit?"

Wen Dongling wanted to sit herself, but reality didn't allow it, she had just been beaten with ten boards, and now her whole ass was hurting, she didn't know if Chu Hongze asked this on purpose or inadvertently, for a while, she felt very aggrieved.

"Your Highness, if you hadn't come to your rescue today, I might never see Your Highness again in the future."

Wen Dongling walked behind Chu Hongchen, put his hand into his waist, and wrapped his arms around him.

Chu Hongchen turned his back to Wen Dongling and showed disdain, but this expression did not let Wen Dongling see it.

Wen Dongling continued to complain: "Your Highness, Wen Ruyi, that woman deceived people too much, and framed me repeatedly, I must find an opportunity to kill her." ”

Chu Hongchen turned around and looked at Wen Dongling affectionately: "I know, you have suffered, Wen Ruyi, this woman, naturally wants to get rid of it, the previous medicine, you remember to increase the dose, in a few days, she will not be as radiant as she is today." ”

"However, my current relationship with her is that it is impossible for me to enter the palace again."

"Since you can't do it yourself, let's start with the people around her, you know?"
