In the palace, who can carry weapons is very strict, Xiao Chengxi has no such qualifications, but the Nine Emperor Princes stuffed the dagger directly into Xiao Chengxi's hands.

Seeing Xiao Chengxi reach out and take the dagger, Xiaohuang's close guards suddenly became nervous, but Xiao Chengxi put it aside very calmly, and even his expression did not change more.

The guards beside the Emperor immediately took the dagger away.

The Nine Emperors didn't seem to care, and turned around and walked towards Emperor Yoi again: "Father, the son has retired!" ”

Emperor Xiao didn't pay attention to the unreasonableness of the Nine Emperors at all, for the first time he was clamoring to see his father for no reason, and now, he wanted to leave for no reason, Emperor Xiao didn't even mention a word, just looked at his son lovingly: "The emperor should go quickly." ”

Concubine Chang, who was sitting on the side, also stood up and gave a salute to Emperor Xiao to retire.

The mother and son quickly disappeared at the door.

When the Nine Emperor Princes left, the kindness in Emperor Xiao's eyes suddenly disappeared, and his thoughts returned to Xiao Chengxi's body, but he still didn't say anything, his brows were tightly locked, if the Nine Emperor Princes didn't have the behavior just now, maybe Emperor Night would not be so embarrassed, but with the behavior just now, what should he do with this Xiao Chengxi, his concern is just that he doesn't want his emperor to cry!

After the agitation of the Nine Emperor Princes, the atmosphere here seems to be less tense, but Concubine Xue on the side can be a little uncontrollable, seeing that Xiao Chengxi's own witnesses do not prove the little palace maid she mentioned, but Emperor Xiao is slow to draw conclusions, she saw the Nine Emperors leaving, she became a lot bolder, cleared her throat, and carried a provocative meaning: "It seems that Princess Chengxi has made lying commonplace!" ”

Concubine Xue suddenly spoke, which attracted the attention of Emperor Xiao, but it also made Murong Yixuan's heart hang, he stared at Zhi Yan on the ground fiercely, but there was nothing to refute!

I only heard Concubine Xue continue: "Your Majesty, this matter is about the Nine Emperors, you can't forget it in a daze, if you let her go, it will not only bury hidden dangers for the palace, but also chill the hearts of those who are loyal to their duties!" ”

Emperor Xiao's eyes couldn't help but fall on Concubine Xue's body, and his face suddenly sank: "What did Concubine Xue say?" ”

"The emperor doesn't know, just now, even His Royal Highness the Seventh insisted on protecting this Princess Chengxi, the implication is that it was my Chuan'er who framed Princess Chengxi!" Concubine Xue looked at Xiao Chengxi and Murong Yixuan with some provocation in her eyes!

But the two people at this moment suddenly have no room for refutation! Because of Xiao Chengxi's words, there is nothing to support it!

Murong Yixuan was just about to step forward to speak, but Emperor Xiao had already spoken, turned his head to the fourth prince and said, "Chuan'er, since you found out about this matter today, then you can investigate it well, and you must find out to me whether what Princess Chengxi said is true or false!" ”

Such a result greatly surprised the Seventh Prince Murong Yixuan, unexpectedly, it turned out to be such a result!

The Seventh Prince, Murong Yixuan, couldn't take too much care of it, and suddenly stepped forward: "Father! ”

Emperor Xiao glanced at Murong Yixuan, who was a little out of shape, and asked in a cold voice, "What, what do you have to say?" ”

"Father, the son is just thinking that Princess Chengxi is related to the relationship between the two countries, and I ask my father to think twice!" Murong Yixuan was a little impulsive, and there was no reason to say that he had to move out the state affairs!

Looking back at the four princes, the color flashed in his eyes, and he couldn't care too much, and added: "Besides, when the four emperor brothers were in Tongcheng, they used to punish the princess, and now, it seems a little unreasonable to hand over the princess to the four emperor brothers!" ”

Emperor Xiao's eyes widened slightly, and he glanced at the Seventh Prince: "Xuan'er really cares about the overall situation!" After saying such a sentence lightly, he suddenly raised his voice, "Could it be that Linyue is as important as the life of your Nine Emperor Brothers!" ”

Murong Yixuan said that he couldn't imagine that Xiao Chengxi would face such a dangerous situation again, which he never expected, at least he was not mentally prepared, tonight, he would never let Xiao Chengxi fall into Murong Haochuan's hands!

Xiao Chengxi, who had been by Murong Yixuan's side, suddenly felt his sudden rising momentum, she ignored her wounds, and grabbed Murong Yixuan with both hands, but Emperor Qingxiao in front of her, if he said half a wrong sentence, then he would be even more sad in the future, even if she was tortured again, she didn't want him to suffer any more blows!

At such a tense moment, a coquettish voice came from outside the door: "The life of the Nine Emperor Princes is important, but the lives of others are equally important!" ”

As this voice fell, a very richly dressed woman appeared at the door, standing at the door with an elegant temperament, but she did not step into the door, but her eyes looked directly at the emperor, with some unruly meaning.

Xiao Chengxi didn't know this woman, but Murong Yixuan's originally tense body trembled because of this, and his eyebrows tightened, and in an instant, the people in the room, except for Emperor Xiao, all stood up, saluted the comer, and shouted: "See the queen mother!" ”

It turned out that this was the queen in the palace of Qingxiao Kingdom, that somewhat mysterious figure, a character who could not be seen in the palace at all on weekdays, but today, in the middle of the night, how did she appear here!

Not only did Xiao Chengxi and the others not understand, but even the Emperor Xiao on the dragon couch was a little surprised, and after a moment of silence, the Emperor Xiao owed slightly: "It's so late, the queen is not in her palace, how did she come here?" There was endless indifference in his tone.

Xiao Chengxi didn't care about looking at the queen carefully, and felt that Murong Yixuan beside him had changed from being tense just now to trembling, it seemed that this kind of forbearance was more difficult than just now, Xiao Chengxi didn't understand, but he could only hold Murong Yixuan's arm harder, so that he didn't lose his senses.

The queen stood in front of the door, but she didn't even enter the door: "Your Majesty, please forgive the concubines for being presumptuous, I heard that there was a princess who wanted to assassinate the Nine Emperor Princes, such a major change, so I dared to come and take a look." ”

Emperor Xiao saw that the queen didn't enter the door, but he didn't pay attention to it, so he was far away: "The queen's news is really well-informed, what happened so late can be known so quickly!" ”

"Did the emperor forget, today is the fifteenth, the fifteenth day of the first month of the first month of the palace has to meditate in the Baohua Palace, today, it is still early to leave!" The queen's speech is not at all different from other concubines, there is no intention to please the emperor in the words, it seems that the two people are equal, which makes Xiao Chengxi very surprised, and always feels that this queen and the entire palace seem to be a little out of place!

"Since the queen refuted me so directly just now, what basis do you have!?" Although the momentum of the Emperor Xiaohuang has not diminished, and the meaning of confrontation with the queen is not bad, but this question has some meaning of asking for advice.

Xiao Chengxi felt a little different, but Murong Yixuan's fists clenched tighter!

The queen smiled slightly: "This palace has always been about things, and the words of this princess Chengxi, this palace thinks that it is credible!" ”

Emperor Xiao couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "What did the queen say?" ”

Although the anger of Concubine Xue on the side had reached her mind, with Emperor Xiao's question, she didn't dare to say much, just glared at the queen angrily.

The queen didn't care about Concubine Xue's almost cannibalistic gaze, and said calmly: "Princess Chengxi's statement, even if it is a dull person, there will be no such loopholes, let alone this Princess Chengxi, so at this moment, if you draw any conclusions, it will be earlier." ”

Emperor Xiao's face sank: "Could it be that I want to hand it over to the four emperors, are you dissatisfied with anything?" ”

"Isn't the words of the Seventh Prince right?" The queen didn't let it go at all, "Could it be that the border that has just been calmed down, the emperor can't provoke another war!" As he spoke, his eyes fell on Xiao Chengxi's body.

When the queen's words came out, Xiao Chengxi understood, the queen came to protect herself, which made her a little incomprehensible, even Murong Yixuan was at a loss, and her tense body also relaxed, which he didn't expect!

"Alarmist, right?" Emperor Xiao was a little disdainful, after all, at this moment, Lin Yue would never dare to provoke a war!

"At the beginning, the emperor sent troops because of the death of Princess Qinghe, and Linyue was despised by the world, and the emperor was famous, so he attacked Linyue with difficulty, but on the contrary, if Princess Chengxi was humiliated in Qingxiao's palace, or there was any danger, the Linyue Emperor would not be good, but the Yun family, which has been inherited for a hundred years, will he give up!" The queen is unexpectedly reasonable, although she is deep in the palace, she knows the situation well!

Emperor Xiao's eyes narrowed slightly, the meaning of danger was very obvious, Xiao Chengxi couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine, this expression was the same as Murong Yixuan!

"Queen, do you think I'm afraid of this!" The Emperor laid one palm on the table and shouted coldly.

The queen shook her head slightly: "There is nothing wrong with handing it over to the four princes, but the four princes must ensure the safety of Princess Chengxi and must not torture to extract confessions, otherwise, the emperor should punish the four princes!" ”

Although this queen has not received the grace of Emperor Night for ten years, there is still no one to replace her, which has a lot to do with her family, so she dared to say these words to Emperor Xiaohuang, but these words are not too much!

After a period of silence, Emperor Xiao spoke: "Chuan'er, remember, investigate this matter clearly, I want to know the truth, after all, it is a princess, so don't use torture, temporarily invite Princess Chengxi out of the palace and place her in the right prime minister's mansion." And at the same time, he turned his head and said to Murong Yixuan, "Xuan'er just needs to investigate your affairs carefully, except for the army, stay in the palace more, and don't interfere in the affairs of Princess Chengxi!" ”
