Chapter 106: The Assassin
Miao Li climbed by the wall, looked in again, and saw that the people inside were almost gone. Slightly packed up her clothes and hair, and prepared to go in, now she could still talk about going to the hut or something, and the longer the time dragged on, the more she couldn't explain.
But before she could take a step in, suddenly several people stood beside her with lanterns, and surrounded her as if they had been premeditated.
The side suddenly lit up, and Miao Li didn't know what happened to force herself to stabilize herself, while thinking about the wording in her heart. It's a pity that the other party didn't give her a chance to speak at all.
The leader pretended to shout back, "Princess, we found her, she is here." ”
Xu Meitang heard the voice and pretended to come out, walked in front of Miaoli, and kept looking at Miaoli with a pair of eyes, and her undisguised gaze made Miaoli's heart furious.
Miao Li just wanted to speak, wanting to take the initiative in her own hands, but she was directly blocked by Xu Meitang.
Xu Meitang asked domineeringly: "Where did the girl go so late?" ”
Miaoli opened her mouth and wanted to say that she was chasing the thief, but Xu Meitang didn't give her a chance to speak.
Xu Meitang aimed at the time when she was about to speak, and continued: "I'm afraid the girl doesn't know yet, an assassin entered the mansion just now, and the prince is now seriously injured. ”
Hearing that Zhou Shuxuan was injured, Miao Li asked with concern: "Is the prince okay?" ”
She shouldn't have gone out just now, she had nothing to chase any thief, she was powerless to chase the thief, so it was better to stay by Zhou Shuxuan's side. He had easy legs, and she could at least protect him.
It seems that she still cares about the prince very much, I'm afraid that Zhou Shuxuan will be gone, and she will have no support in the house. Xu Meitang replied in a cold voice, "The prince doesn't care about the girl now." I heard He Yuan say that the assassin was extremely familiar with the terrain of the palace, and it was very likely that there was an internal response in the palace. The girl doesn't sleep in the middle of the night, and she walks outside alone, shouldn't the girl explain it well? ”
Xu Meitang said that she was a spy, how could she be a spy.
Miaoli wanted to open her mouth to prove her innocence, "The slave is going to ......" to chase the thief.
Before she finished speaking, Xu Meitang suddenly noticed that there was something in her arms, which looked like a dagger. Xu Meitang hid behind Mama and pointed at Miaoli and shouted, "What are you carrying in your arms?" You're in league with the Assassins. Someone, she's an assassin, drag it out and kill her. ”
What's in her arms?
Miaoli stretched out her hand and touched it, only to remember that it was the dagger she had picked up on the road just now, and took out an explanation, "Princess, this is the slave maid who picked it up." ”
How could Xu Meitang let her explain, and if she explained, it was also a white explanation.
Xu Meitang screamed to cover her explanation, and after screaming, she kept shouting, "Quick, she's an assassin, drag her out and kill her." ”
Mama cooperated very well in front of Xu Meitang, and several little guys came forward to drag Miaoli out after listening to Xu Meitang's instructions.
Miaoli shouted at this time, Xu Meitang said that she was here to ask her, but now she didn't say a whole word, and now the important thing is to explain clearly.
Miaoli pushed away the person who pulled her, threw away the dagger, knelt on the ground and said, "Princess, the slave and maid are wronged. The slave went out because she heard a strange sound outside, so she chased it out. Now it seems that what the slave heard at that time was the assassin, and the dagger was also dropped by the assassin, and the slave and the maid were really wronged. ”
Xu Meitang walked out when she saw that she was no longer aggressive, staring at Miaoli's face, what a beautiful face, so that Zhou Shuxuan could only spoil her alone. It's a pity that she is not Zhou Shuxuan, this face makes her hate crazy.
Xu Meitang obviously didn't believe it, "Who are you fooling?" You certainly won't admit to being an assassin. He shouted to the little guy on the side, "Hurry up and drag this assassin down and kill him, isn't it useful for me to speak as a princess?" ”
Chop the grass to get rid of the roots, and only when Miaoli dies can we prevent future troubles. When Zhou Shuxuan woke up, she said that she had killed an assassin, and there was no proof of death at that time anyway.
Zhou Shuxuan may be angry with her for a while, but she is a princess, as long as the Xu family does not fall for a day, she can be a stable princess, even if the Xu family does not have her, she can be a stable princess.
The person who was pushed away by Miaoli just now came to pull her again, in fact, the little guys were not willing to do it, Miaoli was Zhou Shuxuan's favorite concubine, who knew what Zhou Shuxuan's attitude was towards her when she woke up, but Xu Meitang's order had to be listened to.
Miao Li knelt on the ground and defended weakly, "The princess and slave are really wronged." ”
Xu Meitang didn't listen to her at all, and was still directing the little girl to pull her out and beat her to death.
Wei Hai watched from afar, he didn't intend to speak for Miaoli at first. I want her to understand that her status in the palace is entirely because of Zhou Shuxuan, if there is no Zhou Shuxuan, she is just a concubine who is nothing, and she has no status in the palace. The princess can do to her as she wants.
As for whether Miao Li was an assassin or not, before the dagger came out, Wei Hai believed her. Who is Zhou Shuxuan, those eyes are poisonous, if Miaoli is really an assassin, Zhou Shuxuan will definitely not be able to keep her to this day, let alone indulge himself in falling in love with an assassin.
But that dagger, Miao Li is not a person who practices martial arts, and there is no reason to carry a weapon on her body. It's not very credible for her to say that she picked it up herself, and it's also suspicious that she went out alone at night in disheveled clothes. Catch the thief, I don't know if it's an excuse or a thief shouting to catch a thief.
Wei Hai couldn't control himself a lot when he thought about it, Miaoli never agreed that Zhou Shuxuan didn't have a heart, and the dagger was a token of love. Wei Hai patted his head, thinking nonsense, even more unreliable than Miaoli being an assassin.
Wei Hai originally wanted to watch the excitement for a while, but when he heard Xu Meitang say that he wanted to beat Miaoli to death, he couldn't stand it. This killed Zhou Shuxuan when he woke up and asked him what to do with someone, he was afraid that his life would be difficult to save if there was no one.
Wei Hai walked over a few steps and whispered in Xu Meitang's ear: "Princess, there is no conclusion yet, Miss Miaoli may not be an assassin, let's make a decision after finding out the truth." ”
Xu Meitang also let go of everyone's beautiful appearance at this time, and shouted loudly to Wei Hai, "What is inconclusive, human and material evidence is afraid, she is an assassin." ”
Wei Hai seized the loophole in her words and asked, "What witness?" ”
The dagger can barely be regarded as physical evidence, but it is a human witness...... He didn't hear it for a long time, and Xu Meitang said it so confidently that he didn't understand it without asking.
Xu Meitang saw him come out to stop him, afraid that he would not be able to kill Miaoli, and said what he shouldn't have said in an excited way, "My grandmother saw with her own eyes, Miaoli walked around the palace at night, and it was very likely that she was making an internal response to the assassins. ”
Wei Hai has been by Zhou Shuxuan's side for so many years, although he has not yet reached the terrible point where Zhou Shuxuan can analyze the origin of things at a glance, but he is barely a good person. Pretending to be very incomprehensible, he asked: "How could the princess's grandmother see the girl at night, is she swaying around the house like her?" ”
Xu Meitang knew that she was speechless, and took out the posture of the princess and said: "What my grandmother does doesn't seem to be in charge of you as a minion!" ”
Wei Hai gave her enough face, like a minion, and said in a low voice: "It's the slave who has trespassed, but if the prince wakes up and asks about tonight's incident, I don't know if the slave should talk about the princess's grandmother?" ”
Xu Meitang was angry and pointed at him, "You! How dare you threaten me? ”
Wei Hai bent his waist, lowered his eyebrows and said, "The slave doesn't dare, the slave just does his part." By the way, remind the princess that the princess has always disliked people who make their own claims, and if the princess is not completely sure, it is best to leave a line in her work. ”
What if he threatens her, he is Zhou Shuxuan's minion, defending Zhou Shuxuan's interests, and he is unscrupulous for others.
Xu Meitang gritted her teeth and asked, "What if I want to kill her today?" ”
Wei Hai still bent over and said, "The slave doesn't dare to stop it, but if the princess's shadow is oblique, I'm afraid her body won't be able to stand for a few days." ”
The slave who indulged himself at night wandered around the mansion definitely didn't do anything good, and it was probably because he happened to see Miaoli.
Xu Meitang was successfully threatened by him, she and Zhou Shuxuan don't have much relationship now, and they still have to be cautious in doing things.
She also didn't believe that Zhou Shuxuan would defend an assassin, and Zhou Shuxuan would definitely die even if he woke up.
Xu Meitang took a step back and said, "Put this cheap maid in the firewood room and wait for the prince to leave." ”
"The princess is wise."
Wei Hai reached out and pulled Miao Li up, her life was saved, Miao Li thanked her in a low voice, "Thank you, my lord." ”
Wei Hai was distant and cold, "I don't dare to accept your thanks, I didn't help you for you, but for the prince." Let's go, I'll send you over. ”
Every time Miaoli and Zhou Shuxuan quarreled, he had such an attitude towards Miaoli.
Wei Hai was afraid that Xu Meitang would do it again, so he arranged for a few henchmen to stay outside the firewood room. I was afraid that I would wronged her, so I asked Jean to get a few thick mattresses for her, and see that everything was almost cleaned up. Wei Haicai said: "Girl, stay here, the truth is what the prince has woken up." ”
Miao Li didn't know how she became an assassin for some reason, and she really needed the trust of others now, so she said to Wei Hai: "My lord, I am really wronged, I am not an assassin. ”
"The girl told me that it was useless, I had to tell the prince. If the prince wants to believe in the girl, he will believe the girl, and the girl should know it in her heart. ”
She knew that she hadn't done it, and Zhou Shuxuan should have believed her, but if Zhou Shuxuan didn't want to believe her, he was angry now, would he ......
Wei Hai didn't want to look at her tangled appearance anymore, sighed and said, "The girl is okay here, the slave will leave first." ”
Miaoli's heart was chaotic, and she bowed in a wooden manner, "Congratulations to my lord." ”
Seeing Wei Hai walk a few steps away, he stopped him again, "My lord, is the prince okay now?" ”
"Fortunately, He Guang found out in time that the prince was not seriously injured, and there was no worry about his life, so the girl didn't have to worry."
Miao Li nodded and retreated. Caring about people and doing things like before, Wei Hai really couldn't understand her, "Since the girl cares about the prince very much, why is she like that to the prince?" ”
Miao Li didn't answer directly, but said, "My lord, you made me think about it that day. ”
