Chapter 089: Important Witnesses

Everyone was attracted by the Nine Emperor Princes, only the Seventh Prince Murong Yixuan, the worried eyes still fell on Xiao Chengxi's body, Xiao Chengxi also had a tacit understanding to take this opportunity to look at him, grateful, worried, in short, it was very complicated, even she couldn't tell what she felt about Murong Yixuan at the moment!

"It seems that my Nine Emperor Sons are a lot smarter!" Emperor Xiao said in admiration, the words of the Nine Emperor Princes made him suddenly happy, as if the military exploits of the Seven Princes were not worth mentioning at this time.

The Nine Emperors are also very well-behaved and close to the Emperor Xiao, in the eyes of everyone, such a harmonious father-son relationship is very difficult to find on the entire Huazhou Road, or, just because the Nine Emperors are stupid, can they get such a fatherly love as the Emperor Xiaohuang!

At this time, Xiao Chengxi only felt that she couldn't let Murong Yixuan rush in front anymore, she raised her head and said to Emperor Xiaohuang: "Your Majesty, can you let Xiao Chengxi say a few words?" ”

The very clear and calm words made everyone in the room stunned, such a notorious princess is now suspected of assassinating the prince, and she dares to speak like this in front of the emperor!

But surprisingly, Emperor Xiaohuang turned his head, took a deep look at Xiao Chengxi, and nodded!

Xiao Chengxi finally had a chance, so he told everything that happened in the darkness just now, and finally, his eyes fell on the dagger in the hand of a guard behind the fourth prince, and the guard also presented the dagger under the signal of Emperor Xiao, Xiao Chengxi added: "Your Majesty, this is the dagger I took from His Royal Highness the Ninth at that time!" ”

After listening to Xiao Chengxi's words, Emperor Xiao just took the dagger lightly, and his eyes lingered on the dagger for a long time, which made everyone hold their breath, and even the Nine Emperor Princes beside Emperor Xiao put away their smiles.

"Imperial Doctor, is the princess's injury serious?" As soon as Emperor Xiao opened his mouth, he actually asked the imperial doctor.

At this time, the imperial doctor did not dare to hide anything, because even a person who did not understand medical skills at all could see who was more seriously injured and told a lie, if it was a real examination, it would be enough for him to drink a pot!

After listening to the imperial doctor's words, Emperor Xiao's eyes fell on the fourth prince again: "Chuan'er, tell me what you see!" ”

The expression of the fourth prince changed from relaxed at the beginning to solemn, he suddenly found that the use of the Nine Emperors to frame Xiao Chengxi seemed to touch the father, I didn't expect that the father would ask so carefully, if this kind of inquiry is followed, it must be immediately, Emperor Xiao will be able to figure out everything, he kept muttering in his heart, could it be that his father would believe Xiao Chengxi's words!

In view of the emperor's prestige, the four princes did not add fuel and vinegar, but only described the scene at that time and explained how they dealt with it after seeing Xiao Chengxi.

The silence again made Murong Yixuan's heart almost raised, he didn't know if Xiao Chengxi could pass this hurdle!

"Xuan'er, about the matter of Tongcheng, you said that you have some inside information that has not been investigated clearly, so I will give you a month to find out as soon as possible!" Emperor Xiao first said such a sentence to Murong Yixuan.

This made the Seventh Prince Murong Yixuan suddenly a little confused, just now, he only thought about saving Xiao Chengxi first, as for this sentence, he can naturally find a reason to round it in the future, but I can't imagine that the emperor is so concerned about this sentence!

But at this time, Murong Yixuan had no choice but to nod and agree!

Seeing Murong Yixuan nodding without hesitation, Emperor Xiao nodded with satisfaction, but his face was not as fond as he had for the Nine Emperor Princes just now.

In the end, Emperor Xiao's eyes locked on Xiao Chengxi's body, and he asked slowly: "What you just said is your own words, even the palace maid who led you to that place, now you can't tell which palace it is, how can you prove that your words are true!?" ”

Emperor Xiao's question also accurately hit the point, what Xiao Chengxi's words lacked was evidence! Xiao Chengxi's brain was running rapidly, thinking carefully about all the processes, and finally, she remembered one person, that was Zhi Yan!

Xiao Chengxi raised his head suddenly, as if grasping a life-saving straw: "Back to the emperor, Chengxi is a Yaju who left with a maid, and there is a witness!" ”

After listening to Xiao Chengxi's words, not only Emperor Xiao, but even the seventh prince Murong Yixuan and the fourth prince Murong Haochuan couldn't help but clench their fists tightly!

"Speak!" Xiaohuang couldn't help frowning slightly, because Xiao Chengxi's expression made him see clearly that this girl's thinking was so rigorous!

"Back to the emperor, when Cheng Xi was taken away from the elegant residence by the palace maid, the concubine Zhi Yan in the Junyi Palace of His Royal Highness the Seventh Highness once met at the door, at that time, the little palace maid was by my side, Zhi Yan should see it clearly!" Xiao Chengxi said affirmatively.

Murong Yixuan couldn't help frowning, it turned out to be her?! He always had a sense of foreboding!

"Spread the concubine of the Seven Princes Zhi Yan!" It was about the Nine Emperor Princes, and Emperor Xiao did not hesitate to give an order.

Soon, Zhi Yan was brought here, when she entered the house, when she saw this formation, she didn't dare to look at Xiao Chengxi and the Seventh Prince, she hung her head low, only lay on the ground, and saluted Emperor Xiao seriously.

Emperor Xiao didn't have the heart to be wordy, so he went straight to the topic: "Zhiyan, tonight, have you ever gone to Yaju to find Princess Chengxi?" ”

Zhi Yan was oppressed by the majesty of Emperor Xiao, even Emperor Xiaohuang's ordinary inquiries were trembling with fright, Murong Yixuan didn't dare to speak at all, Xiao Chengxi also held his breath, waiting for Zhi Yan's answer!

"Back to the emperor, Zhi Yan did go to Princess Chengxi!" Zhi Yan's clear answer made Xiao Chengxi secretly relieved, his eyes couldn't help but drift to the Seventh Prince, and Murong Yixuan's face eased a lot.

Emperor Xiao continued to ask: "Tell me about the scene when you saw Princess Chengxi at that time!" ”

"Zhi Yan met Princess Chengxi at the gate of Yaju, and Princess Chengxi was in a hurry to leave at that time, and we didn't say a few words......" Zhi Yan said word by word.

Emperor Xiao obviously didn't want to listen to these meaningless words, interrupted the details that Zhi Yan wanted to tell, and asked directly: "When you met Princess Chengxi, did you see anyone around the princess?" ”

Zhi Yan thought for a moment and shook his head: "Back to the emperor, Zhi Yan didn't see anyone, only Princess Chengxi was alone at that time!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Chengxi's eyes suddenly widened, and he couldn't imagine that this Zhi Yan actually told a lie in the most critical place! Murong Yixuan couldn't have imagined that there would be such an accident, he was convinced of Xiao Chengxi's words, besides, a smart person like Xiao Chengxi would never say something out of nothing, then, what does this Zhiyan want to do!

And this Zhi Yan was a little trembling, kneeling on the ground, not daring to raise her head, but she could feel the knife-like gaze of the Seven Princes, Zhi Yan suddenly regretted a little, even if she was grounded, she could stay in Junyi Palace, but this time, can she still save her life, but in this world, there is no regret medicine!

Zhi Yan is also a person who has experienced a lot of fights in the palace, so she simply calmed down, since she will definitely end up with a bad end, then pull this Xiao Chengxi who changed her life to be buried with her!

Although Emperor Xiao's impression of Xiao Chengxi is not good, and the suspicion that Xiao Chengxi killed Princess Qinghe cannot be ruled out, but judging from this incident alone, it can be concluded that Xiao Chengxi is an extremely rare smart person, and Emperor Xiaohuang also saw the shadow of another person from her!

Yes, what Zhi Yan said actually made Emperor Xiao's thoughts a little erratic, and his eyes fell on Xiao Chengxi's body for a while, and he didn't say a word.

Everyone's eyes are focused on Emperor Xiao's body, because at this moment, it has reached a very critical moment, and Emperor Xiaohuang's words can decide Xiao Chengxi's fate!

In the huge hall, it was very silent, everyone did not speak, only the candle on one side made a slight crackling sound of candle flowers bursting!

This kind of silence seems to make everyone feel like they want to suffocate, just as the Emperor Xiaohuang opened his mouth to say something, the Nine Emperor Princes actually took the dagger from the hands of the Emperor Xiaohuang, jumped off the dragon couch of the Emperor Xiaohuang at once, and went straight to Xiao Chengxi!

In the surprised eyes of everyone, the Nine Emperors still played with the delicate dagger without knowing the danger, and laughed at Xiao Chengxi: "Chengxi, as long as my Seventh Emperor Brother doesn't blame you, when I want to play with you, I can go to Junyi Palace to find you!" It's just that now I'm sleepy, and I want to go back first! ”

In this palace, the Nine Emperor Princes have always come by their own temperament, but the current situation has made Emperor Xiao a little surprised, this son of his is so close to Xiao Chengxi!

At the same time, there are black lines all over his head, and Murong Yixuan, he really can't imagine how this Xiao Chengxi can make his Nine Emperor Brother so interested, he is really afraid that the Nine Emperor Son will say something earth-shattering, and when the time comes, he really doesn't know if he can control himself!

And when he heard Zhi Yan's perjury, Xiao Chengxi was thinking nervously, and when he looked up and saw the pure eyes of the Nine Emperor Princes, looking at himself sincerely, Xiao Chengxi was touched, maybe in this palace, only the Nine Emperor Princes can look at himself with such sincere eyes.

At the same time, Xiao Chengxi also caught a glimpse of the small wound that the Nine Emperor Princes had scratched due to playing with the dagger, and she didn't care about the situation in front of her, and said softly: "Your Highness the Nine, this dagger is not a play, put it down." ”

"Oh, okay then." The Nine Emperor Princes unexpectedly handed the dagger directly to Xiao Chengxi!
