Chapter 197: A Coincidence

Everyone looked at Xia Yuxian in unison.

Xia Yuxian looked at Mu Xiao in a panic, but saw that there was no wave in Mu Xiao's eyes.

"Master Si, don't lie to me because you have unspeakable thoughts about Mu Yao!"

Xia Yuxian glared at her, and her voice was raised to hide her panic at this time.

"Princess Xia, this official doesn't have the same mind as you said, please be cautious!" Si Lijie was righteous, and he was very upright, and anyone present could see that he was not lying.

"Your Majesty, my prince and brother have a letter, I will arrive in Nanyang City in a few days, I am alone now, and I ask the emperor to make the decision for me, lest those villains maliciously and seriously hurt and slander me." Xia Yuxian hurriedly moved out of Xia Yuling, intending to make Mu Qian jealous.

"Who is the villain that Princess Xia said?"

Xia Yuxian followed the voice and looked over, it was Mu Tingye who spoke, she suddenly felt a layer of goosebumps around her, and her voice trembled a little and said, "Cousin, the villain is ...... It's Xian'er who said the wrong thing! ”

After speaking, Xia Yuxian lowered his head.

She had a hunch that if she didn't leave today, maybe he would die here.

"Your Majesty, Princess Xia has a marriage contract with the minister, and the minister also wants to know the truth, so I don't want Lord Si to come up with evidence before making a decision."

Xia Yuxian's eyes were a little shining, she didn't expect Mu Xiao to speak for her, would he protect her? It should be, after all, she will be his only concubine.

"Your Majesty, look at this," Si Lijie took out a dagger from his bosom and raised his hands high, "This dagger is the murder weapon that killed Zhen Furong!" ”

Xia Yuxian's eyes widened, it was impossible, she would obviously ...... dagger

Mu Qian looked at it as just a simple dagger, "Master Si, this dagger is nothing special to me. ”

"Master Si, you don't just wronged people with that dagger, you have to think clearly, Nanyang and Xiliang are good friends, and what you are doing now is to deliberately sabotage the diplomatic relations between the two countries." Mu Tingzhen seemed to be kindly advised, and when he said that, he still looked worried about the country and the people.

"Lord Wang, if you say this, Mu Yao can't agree," Mu Yao took the dagger, "Lord Si, the rest is for Mu Yao to explain." ”

Mu Yao took the dagger in her hand, fiddled with it twice, and said respectfully to Mu Qian, "Your Majesty, the murder weapon that killed Zhen Furong is indeed this dagger, because Zhen Furong's wound is special, only this dagger can do it." ”

She took out a stack of drawing paper and handed it to Xiao Zhuzi, "Please let the emperor take a look at it." ”

Little Bamboo handed out the drawing paper to the crowd.

Everyone looked at the drawing paper in their hands, it was not the familiar ink danqing, but like an image sketched by charcoal, and the strange thing was that it seemed that the content of the portrait jumped on the drawing paper.

"Your Majesty, the wound on Zhen Furong's abdomen is painted on it, and you can see that the place where the knife is cut is very special, not the thickness of an ordinary dagger, on the contrary, the knife edge is triangular,"

Mu Yao explained, and then reversed the dagger, "Everyone is looking at the second page of the drawing paper, it is this dagger, and this dagger is produced in Xiliang, the back of the knife is triangular, and there is a "bloodletting groove" on the front, right here!" ”

As she spoke, Mu Yao's fingers ran over the bloodletting groove of the dagger, "This kind of dagger kills people, it can make people die not immediately but a little bit of blood, on the contrary, if the dagger is pulled out quickly, it will cause blood to spurt out from the wound of the injured person." ”

"Rong'er, no wonder my Rong'er's face was so pale after she died, it turned out that she was bled to death, Xia Yuxian, I want to kill you!" Rong Shi recalled Zhen Furong's somewhat shriveled body, and felt very heartache, "Are you a pig when I am Rong'er, use such an evil dagger to drain her blood, you are not human!" ”

Zhen Guodong covered Rong's mouth and pulled Rong to kneel, "The emperor forgives the sin, the inner man lost his daughter and lost his mind, please forgive the emperor!" ”

"I can understand the pain of Madame Zhen's loss," he beckoned, "take Madame Zhen down to rest first." ”

Xia Yuxian's back was already wet with sweat at this time, she didn't know how to defend herself, so she didn't admit it.

Mu Yao walked into Xia Yuxian with a dagger, "The night before yesterday, where were you?" ”

"I'm with the son!" Xia Yuxian blurted out and turned his head to look at Mu Xiao.

Mu Yao and everyone looked at Mu Xiao together.

"Xiao Shizi, Princess Xia is with you?" Mu Yao asked, quietly waiting for Mu Xiao to answer.

Mu Xiao looked at Mu Yao's eyes with a little affectionβ€”β€”

Mu Tingye suddenly took out his palm, took Mu Yao to his side, ignored everyone's surprised gaze, and took Mu Yao into his arms, "Why bother to say more, Xia Yuxian will give death, and the conspirators will give death." ”

The meaning of this is Xia Yuxian and Mu Xiao......

Xia Yuxian stood on the spot.

Mu Yao tilted her head and blinked her eyes, meaninging, 'Beautiful man, you are sick again!' ’

The corners of Mu Tingye's mouth curled, meaninging, 'I don't want to waste any more time.' ’

Everyone saw that the two eyebrows were eyebrow-raising, but no one dared to speak.

Mu Zhengshan really couldn't look at it, and stepped forward to pull Mu Yao out, "Regent, please respect yourself!" ”

The sound was so loud that it bordered on roaring.

Mu Tingye bowed slightly, telling Mu Zhengshan to be angry and unable to speak again.

Mu Qian wanted to laugh, but he didn't dare to laugh, so he had to say in a round field, "Uncle Nine Emperors, you frightened Princess Xia," as he said that, he looked at Mu Tingzhen's father and son, as if he was concerned.

"Xiao Shizi, why don't you tell me if Princess Xia was with you the night before, if so, there will be an alibi, if not...... Princess Xia, you have to explain the matter of the dagger, if it is proved that you are a murderer, then killing people and filling your life, what Uncle Nine Emperor said is understandable. ”

Mu Tingzhen clenched his hands, a pair of uncles and nephews, just a few words, he pressed the key to his Zhennan Wangfu, he really didn't know what was going on, now it was all based on Mu Xiao's words, if Mu Xiao denied it, then Xia Yuxian died in Nanyang City, and his relationship with Xiliang ...... Mu Tingye, it's so arrogant!

He said with some caution, "Xiao'er, you have to think about it." ”

"Mu Xiao ......," Xia Yuxian's voice seemed to be pleading...... Seeing that Mu Xiao didn't react for a long time, her heart was already half cold, and she suddenly laughed.

"Mu Xiao, you don't have to say it." Xia Yuxian turned to look at Mu Qian, "Your Majesty, I ...... the night before."

"Your Majesty, Xia Yuling, the prince of Xiliang, asks to see you!"

Xia Yuxian didn't finish speaking, but he breathed a sigh of relief, the crown prince and brother came at the right time!

Mu Tingzhen also breathed a sigh of relief and patted Mu Xiao's shoulder.

But he didn't want Mu Xiao to suddenly walk to Mu Yao's side.

"How do you want me to answer?"

Mu Yao frowned as if she was puzzled, and felt a little inexplicable, "You shouldn't ask me this question, or your purpose is just to get rid of some people, but at the cost of other people's lives, it's a bit cruel, you already have the answer, why bother to ask me?" ”

Mu Xiao smiled bitterly, Mu Yao is Mu Yao!

At this time, Xia Yuling hurriedly entered the hall, and Xia Yuxian hurriedly ran to Xia Yuling's side, "Brother Crown Prince, you save me, I didn't kill anyone." ”

Xia Yuling looked stunned and looked at Mu Qian, "Your Majesty, what's going on?" ”

Si Lijie briefly recounted the ins and outs of the matter, Xia Yuling picked up the dagger in Mu Yao's hand, and said puzzledly, "This is indeed my Xiliang's dagger, it's just-"

Mu Yao squintedβ€”β€”
