Chapter 107: The Disaster of Innocence
It was a sword hidden at the bottom of the piano, which was inadvertently knocked out by Jiang Zhen and Zhang Lianyi.
The emperor's already unsightly face became more and more gloomy, although this palace banquet was not very important, but when he entered the palace, he was screened layer by layer, but this sword appeared here unknowingly, and slapped the palace in the face.
What's more, if Zhang has mercy on harboring evil intentions...... Now sitting here are the mainstays of the imperial court, and even killing only one person is enough to cause turmoil.
For a while, people were panicked.
The emperor immediately ordered the banquet site to be blocked, and even Jiang Zhen was left behind.
Shen Xizhi wrinkled her eyebrows and looked at all this, always feeling that the development of things exceeded her expectations. After all, Zhang Lianyi is just a young lady in the boudoir, she can't lift her hands and can't resist her shoulders, if she wants to assassinate her, I'm afraid she will scare herself before she kills someone.
But since the sword was hidden under her piano, why was that?
Suddenly, she felt a gaze, but when she looked up, the feeling disappeared. Could it be ...... Is this for yourself?
couldn't figure it out left and right, so she had to suppress the uneasiness in her heart and look at the center like everyone else.
Jiang Zhen sat back in his place, but his face was full of panic. Zhang Lianyi knelt tremblingly in the middle, she didn't know what was going on.
The emperor looked at her for a long time, and really didn't think that this was Zhang Lianyi's plan, maybe she was just a pathfinding stone, but she was accidentally involved by Jiang Zhen and accidentally knocked out the sword.
The sword was inspected by the emperor's guards and was just an ordinary sword without any signs.
"Where did this piano come from?" the emperor asked Zhang Lianyi.
"It's ...... This is ......" Zhang Lianyi trembled, and his words were not clear.
She only came to play the piano and wanted to take the opportunity to be the concubine of King Yu, how did she know that this kind of thing would happen? Zhang Lian wanted to cry without tears, and she had a lot of words in her heart to excuse herself, but she couldn't say a word because she was afraid.
"Miss Zhang Si entered the palace with the musicians of King Yu's Mansion, perhaps, what will King Yu know?"
Shen Xizhi looked at it when she heard the words, and found that it was a kind old minister who spoke, but she subconsciously twisted her eyebrows, and her heart became more and more uneasy.
"Check. The emperor didn't ask Jiang Jingyu, cut off his chance to speak, and directly asked the guards to check the musical instruments of those Yuwang Mansion musicians.
The atmosphere of the banquet was sluggish, and only the moonlight that was getting brighter and brighter sprinkled on the earth unreservedly. The wind brings the fragrance of osmanthus flowers, but it can't make people ignore the coolness of the wind.
Shen Xizhi was a little uneasy, since the minister led the fire to the Yuwang Mansion, it means that this matter is really aimed at the Yuwang Mansion, but what should I do?
Zhang Lianyi is probably just a disguise, so who is the mastermind behind it?
Suddenly, a warm hand was placed on the back of her hand, and Jiang Jingyu's calm side face was seen sideways.
"Don't panic. The simple four words seemed to have a strange power, soothing the panic in Shen Xi's heart.
She clenched her fists, then let go, forcing herself to composure. Perhaps, the man behind the scenes is snickering.
The guards soon returned, "Emperor Qi, no blades have been found. However, this piano has only been used by the musicians of the Yu Palace. ”
In this way, it is really difficult to tell whether it is black or white.
However, for the emperor who had just been put together by Jiang Jingyu and Shen Xizhi, this was also a piece of evidence.
"King Yu, you are really bold. He gritted his teeth with hatred.
The temperature on his hands disappeared, and Shen Xizhi saw the person next to him stand up, as indifferent as ever: "Father is angry, and this son doesn't know." Miss Zhang Si has long ceased to practice the piano in Yuwangfu, and this piano is not owned by Yuwangfu. ”
The emperor was unmoved, he had his own plans in his heart. The crown prince's position is stable, and he will definitely not do this kind of thing, although the sixth and seventh are stubborn, but they don't have the courage, as for the ninth child, with Concubine Rong watching, he can't do this kind of thing.
Only King Yu, who had just gained power and was openly disobedient to him, had the motive and courage to do so. He arbitrarily believed that this was the truth, "Even so, the musicians in your house have used this piano and have enough opportunities to do tricks." ”
Things seemed to be at an impasse, and suddenly, Zhang Lianyi remembered something, she looked at Jiang Zhen in disbelief, and then cried, "I remembered, this piano ...... It was given to me by the fifth princess!"
Her wrist was bloodied by Jiang Zhen's grasp, and she had not been bandaged, so she raised her finger and pointed at Jiang Zhen, her eyes desperate and happy.
She doesn't have enough brains, she doesn't know how she can have a sword at the bottom of the piano, but the piano was given by Jiang Zhen, maybe Jiang Zhen has hidden the sword in the piano a long time ago, but she never knew it......
But why? Aren't he and Jiang Zhen on the same rope?
After identifying Jiang Zhen, Zhang Lianyi fell into confusion again.
"Princess, princess?" Jiang Zhen became the target of everyone, but she was trembling and didn't know what was going on, so Ping'er had to call her quietly.
Jiang Zhen raised her head blankly, and someone kindly explained to her, "Your Royal Highness the Fifth Princess, did Miss Zhang Si's piano be given by Her Royal Highness the Princess?
"What sword?" Her voice was already hoarse, and the man patiently made it clear to her, Jiang Zhen's eyes widened violently, she subconsciously looked at Jiang Zerui, and the person smiled at her calmly.
Her back was a little cold, and after a while, she realized that she was already drenched in cold sweat.
"Piano...... Qin is ......" her mouth trembled, and she suddenly looked at Shen Xizhi, "When Zhang Lianyi left King Yu's mansion, Princess Yu thought of her old love, so she wanted to give her a piano, but Princess Yu was embarrassed, so let me ...... Forwarding ......"
At the critical moment, Jiang Zhen was smarter.
In the dark, Jiang Zerui picked up the teacup and blocked the corners of his lips.
Because of Jiang Zhen's identification, for a while, everyone's eyes were focused on Shen Xizhi again. She frowned tightly, and suddenly stretched out, "The fifth princess keeps saying that this qin is a gift from me, so may I ask the princess, when and day did I give the qin, where is it? when? Who can testify?"
She threw out one question after another, and her calm appearance was much more credible than Jiang Zhen's.
"I ......" Jiang Zhen's eyes glanced around, but he couldn't bear to look at Jiang Zerui. She grabbed Ping'er and said, "It's just that I am at odds with you, and it is my duty to help you deliver the piano, where will I remember those details?" However, Ping'er can testify for me...... Ping'er, you say!"
"Princess, spare your life!" Ping'er was dragged to her knees, her head slamming to the ground.
"You say!" Jiang Zhen glared at her.
But Ping'er only begged for mercy one by one, she knew that she couldn't do this, she ...... Don't want to die yet!
