"It's not enough, if I don't tell the truth today, I would rather the emperor give me death at this time." Pei Yi had made up his mind, and arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, the absurd thing that night happened between the minister and Princess Changning was all because Princess Changning bought off the little guy around the minister and drugged the wine I drank. After that, Princess Changning wore the clothes of the lost pearl again, and the ministers mistook her for the lost pearl. will happen to defile Princess Changning, although the minister is at fault, but the minister's fault is that he loves the pearl too much. And Princess Changning knew that the minister's intentions were deliberate, first drugged the minister's wine and misled the minister with the clothes of the pearl, so that I made a big mistake, the minister didn't want to regret it for life, so he had to risk death to tell the matter. ”

"Hehe, Pei Yi, you said that I bought the little guy next to you to drug your wine, what is the evidence?" Chang Ning's tears had stopped at this time, listening to his beloved's accusations against him, and expressing his thoughts so directly to other women. Her heart hurt as if it was being burned, but even then, she would never let go. The man she can't get, that slut can't even think she can get!

Murong Sheng's expression was solemn, "This matter is indeed about the face of the royal family, Pei Yi, you have to come up with evidence, not just one-sided words." ”

Sun Ping, the minister's little servant, had quit his job half a year ago and returned to his hometown, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong that night, so he got him back. Now the emperor can send him to the palace to testify. ”

As soon as Pei Yi's words fell, Chang Ning's face changed slightly, and his hands under his sleeves clenched slightly.

Murong Sheng glanced at him, hesitated for a moment and nodded, "Pass." ”

After a while, Pei Yi came as if he had been prepared for a long time, and the guards took his little servant Sun Ping to the Heart Cultivation Palace.

"Sun Ping, a grass man, pays a visit to the emperor." Sun Ping, who was brought to the hall, knelt in the center of the hall tremblingly, and did not dare to raise his head.

The missing pearl can also be seen that it is indeed Sun Ping, a little servant who is waiting by Pei Yi's side.

As soon as Chang Ning saw Sun Ping enter the hall, a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, and he still pretended to be calm on his face.

"Well, you're the little maid of the eight horses, and you serve the eight horses on weekdays?" Murong Sheng's face was serious, and his hair was cold when he saw it.

"Back to the emperor, yes. The grass people have been following Young Master Pei for two years. ”

Pei Yi couldn't see that the conversation was procrastinating, and immediately said: "Sun Ping, tell the emperor everything that Princess Changning ordered you to do." ”

Sun Ping hesitated for a moment, and looked at the gloomy face with a gorgeous face at this time. I saw a murderous aura flash in her eyes, and Jiaosun Ping lowered her head.

This scene fell into Murong Sheng's eyes, and he already had a rough idea of what was going on in his heart, "Sun Ping, if I ask you, you have to answer truthfully, if you have half a lie, you will lose your head." ”

"Grass People...... The grass people will know everything. Sun Ping was bluffed, and the whole person lay on the main hall.

"The Eight Horses said that you were bought by the Eight Princesses, and when the Eight Horses and the Eight Princesses were not married, they were drugged in the Eight Horses' wine. Is there such a thing? ”

Sun Ping cried with a sad face, and was about to answer, when Chang Ning on the side issued a warning, "It's best not to say anything slandering the palace." ”

"Chang Ning!" Murong Sheng glanced at her coldly, with a warning in his voice.

Chang Ning clenched his fists.

Sun Ping had no choice, and immediately begged for mercy, "Back to the emperor, it's true." Before the eighth princess married Young Master Pei, the eighth princess came to the grass people and asked the grass people to put a little soothing medicine powder in the young master's wine, so that the young master would stop drinking. At that time, the young master had a quarrel with the ninth princess, and the young master used wine to kill his sorrows. The grass people thought that this method was feasible and was good for the young master, so the grass people did it. But I don't want to...... And that happened the next day. At that moment, the grass people knew that they were in the hands of the eighth princess, but at that time they were already in the boat. The young master ruined the innocence of the eighth princess. If the emperor wants to cut off the young master's head, the grass people will definitely stand up and tell the truth...... But at that time, the emperor gave marriage to the young master and the eighth princess. ”

"Even then, you could tell the truth at the time, but why did you choose to continue to hide it, if it wasn't for me that something was wrong and sent someone back to your hometown to find you, would you take this secret to the end of your life?" Pei Yi was heartbroken in the face of the betrayal given to him by the person he trusted so much.

"I'm sorry young master, at that time, the eighth princess found a slave and asked me not to reveal the medicine she asked her to add that night in front of you, otherwise it would cost my family's life. Young master, the slave thinks that the separation between you and the ninth princess is all my fault. The slave felt very guilty and felt shameless to serve the young master anymore, so he chose to quit his job and return to his hometown. ”

After a pause, Sun Ping lay on the ground, "Your Majesty, the grass people have told me everything, please spare your life." Although the grass people are guilty of this matter, but the crime does not harm the family, please ask the emperor to surrender the crime to the grass people, just let the grass people alone, and don't affect the grass people's families. ”

Murong Sheng's eyes fell on Chang Ning's gorgeous face, and his gaze was cold.

Seeing this, Chang Ning immediately jumped out, "Father, I didn't, I didn't do that." Don't listen to this minion babbling here. It's ...... at all."

"That's enough." Murong Sheng interrupted her in a cold voice, "I know which is right and which is wrong." ”

"Father......" Chang Ning was unwilling.

"Sun Ping, you had no intention of framing the eight horses, and chose to hide the truth afterwards. Although you take the overall situation into account, things are all because you are confused. If you have been serving your young master, you will never have something like that. Sin does not lead to death, but it cannot be easily forgiven, so I will beat you fifty times. ”

"Emperor Xie!" Sun Ping finally breathed a sigh of relief and let go of the big stone in his heart. He was then dragged out by the guards.

Murong Sheng stared at Chang Ning, a daughter who had always been rude, with a gloomy expression. Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Xu Hong immediately dismissed the other minions and left the main hall to their royal family.

"Father, don't believe that minion's words. Chang Ning really didn't do it, it was simply Pei Yi who wanted to collude with me and Licai with that minion. Don't fall for their schemes, father, you believe in Chang Ning, Chang Ning is innocent, it was simply that night I saw Pei Yi drinking alone in the tavern, drunk and unconscious, I saw that he was the cousin of the missing pearl, and he would be helped to the side room out of kindness, but I didn't expect him to do such a thing to me. Father, who would design a man with his innocence. Chang Ning is a victim. Now it is necessary to create people to question ......"

"Shut up." Murong Sheng reprimanded: "What kind of character are you, I don't know?" If you hadn't fallen in love with Pei Yi in the morning, you would have been so kind to help your cousin go to the wing. Don't think I don't know, you and Yongping Leyang often bully the missing pearl like this. It's just that you are both my daughters, and I don't want to make you resentful of the lost pearl because I come out and reprimand you, so I keep turning a blind eye. Only by caring more and loving the missing pearl is to make up for it as a father's helplessness. ”

Yizhu's eyes were full of disbelief, and he couldn't believe that he was actually at odds with several imperial sisters, in fact, his father knew about it a long time ago, and in order not to let the imperial sister bully her even more, he chose to turn a blind eye, and rewarded himself from time to time to make up for his guilt.

In an instant, the pearl felt warm and distressed in her heart.

I feel sorry for my father's embarrassment, but what warms my father's love for me is what warms me.

"Chang Ning, you have a brutal and willful personality. If it wasn't Pei Yi who took away your innocence that day, but another man, according to your temperament, he would have been killed on the spot a long time ago, and this matter would have been made a big fuss in front of me? Murong Sheng sighed deeply, "You have been raised in the palm of my hand since you were a child, what do you have in mind, I don't know?" ”

Chang Ning bit his lip and didn't say a word.

"Your Majesty." Pei Yi gave up his hand, "Since the emperor knows the ins and outs of the matter, and has also figured out that it was not the minister who was drunk and tarnished Princess Changning's innocence in the first place, that matter was all Chang Ning's single-handedly planned to frame the minister, and the minister and Princess Changning had no feelings." Therefore, I also asked the emperor to allow the minister to reconcile with Princess Changning. ”

"I don't want it, I don't agree!" Chang Ning shouted excitedly, "Whether or not I planned to frame you, the fact that you took away my innocence is a fact." The two of us are already married, and the marriage given by my father himself, how can you say that harmony and divorce are harmony. I resolutely disagree with you and leave! ”

"I can't do it with you anymore, you designed to frame me like that. I can't continue to live with you, even if you don't agree and leave, I won't go back to the so-called Eighth Princess Mansion! ”

"Really? Even then, I can't agree to be reconciled with you and let you be with the Lost Jewel as you wish! In front of Murong Sheng, she was still somewhat restrained, and she didn't dare to call Yizhu a little slut.

And at this time, the missing pearl couldn't bear it anymore, "Actually, Eighth Emperor Sister, the matter between me and my cousin has long been in the past. Therefore, even if my cousin is reconciled with you, it is impossible for me to be with him. ”

"Lost pearl ......" Pei Yi twisted his eyebrows, and a touch of hurt emotion flashed in his eyes.

Yizhu said earnestly: "Cousin, the matter between you and me has become a thing of the past. I don't want to do anything now, but I just take advantage of the time I still have to be filial to my father, and if my father points me out another family business, I will gladly accept it. So, cousin, live a good life with the Eighth Emperor Sister, and don't waste any more thoughts on the missing pearls. ”

"I ...... the Lost Pearl"

Without waiting for Pei Yi to speak, Chang Ning gloated and said: "Hehe, it's hard for you to want to be with me and leave with her again, but she doesn't accept your wishes, because Yizhu is a person with a habit of cleanliness, and she doesn't like second-hand goods at all." You were my colt, and she couldn't be with you. Pei Yi, even if you leave with me, it will be absolutely impossible for the two of you to be together! ”

Murong Sheng listened and asked in a deep voice: "Chang Ning, Pei Yi, since God has arranged for the two of you to be in harmony, then it proves that the two of you are destined." Emotional things can be cultivated, and you have been married for less than a year. If you say you want to reconcile and leave now, Pei Yi, this is inappropriate. ”

Pei Yi twisted his eyebrows and did not speak.

"At the beginning, your affairs were full of turmoil in the city, and everyone knew it, if it was less than a year old, you would say and leave. Pei Yi, do you think my daughter can tolerate what you say you want, and don't want what you say you don't want? ”

The Son of Heaven was already angry, Pei Yi fell to the ground on his knees and knelt on the main hall at the moment, "Your Majesty, the minister didn't mean that, but the minister really couldn't get along with the eighth princess, so he ......"

"It's all an excuse." Murong Sheng was angry, "You are concerned about the Lost Pearl, and you are all focused on the Lost Pearl, don't let me guess, you learned that I was going to choose a horse for the Lost Pearl, so you were so anxious that you wanted to reconcile with Chang Ning, right?" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister is guilty. But the minister is really in love with the pearl. Chen and she grew up together, and they had already decided that she was alone, and she would not marry in this life. If it weren't for ......" paused, Pei Yijun's face was a little cold, "The matter with Chang Ning, the minister can only say that it is impossible for the minister to continue to live with Chang Ning." Even if the emperor wants to kill the minister, the minister has such an attitude. ”

Murong Sheng snorted coldly, "Pei Yi, do you think I really won't dare to kill you?" ”

"The emperor is the king of a country, and there is nothing in this world that the emperor does not dare to do. All this is deserved, if you can't stay with the people you love, the minister is willing to die. Pei Yi arched his hand, with a look of death as home.

"Hehe......" Chang Ning let out a mocking laugh and walked up to him, "You can choose to die for the sake of the pearl." This cruelty tells me that all my efforts in the past six months have been in vain, and you can't see all my efforts and changes. For you, I learned to cook, learned to be a female celebrity, and wanted to embroider a purse for you, but when the purse came into your hand, you didn't even look at it, so I threw it aside. Because of me, I broke you apart from your cousin and made you miss the opportunity to stay with your cousin, so you hate me to the core. I can't wait to leave with me when I get the opportunity, Pei Yi, I really want to ask if your heart is made of stone? No matter what I do for you, I'm a wicked princess in your eyes who is willful and rude, and designs to frame you, right? ”

Chang Ning's voice was hoarse, and he spoke poignantly and sympatheticly.

Pei Yi was gloomy and handsome, and did not say a word.

The bead stood on the side, a little helpless.

She had no intention of getting involved in the affairs of Pei Yi and Chang Ning, but they just wanted to pull her in.

The matter between her and Pei Yi has long been a thing of the past, not to mention that there is only a promise between her and Pei Yi that nothing else will happen except for the words that they will marry in the future. So why bother with the past?

In fact, Murong Sheng didn't want to care about Pei Yi's affairs with Chang Ning, he had seen earlier that it was Chang Ning's plan, but since Pei Yi chose to give up the missing pearl in order to protect Pei's mansion and agreed to marry Chang Ning, he didn't care. Let the young people toss as they want.

It's just that I didn't expect that Pei Yi, who seems to be weak and weak, will have a day of resistance.

It seems that Chang Ning has found someone to treat herself.

Murong Sheng's eyes moved slightly, falling on Chang Ning, "Chang Ning, Pei Yi, I will not allow you to leave." You have been married for less than a year, you should continue to get along well, maybe after a long time, you will find that each other is the most suitable for you. ”

"Your Majesty ......" Pei Yi twisted his eyebrows, very dissatisfied with this statement.

"This matter is decided, and I will not change my mind again."

"The Emperor's ......"

Pei Yi's words were interrupted by Murong Sheng again, "You and Chang Ning will step back first, and the matter between the husband and wife will be solved by themselves after closing the door." I still have something to say with the pearl. ”

When Chang Ning heard this, a smug smile appeared on his gorgeous face, "My good colt, no matter whether you want to go back to the eighth princess or not, in short, you are my colt!" ”

When these words fell, looking at her horse's gloomy face, she instantly turned around and walked out of the Heart Cultivation Hall with an enlightened heart.

Pei Yi's eyes were full of anger, looking at her departing back, he clenched his hands under his sleeves, and then looked at the silent Zhuzhu on the side, and a trace of injury flashed in his eyes. Then he turned around and left unwillingly, "Minister, retire first." ”

Murong Sheng waved his hand, and it wasn't until Pei Yi came out of the Heart Nourishing Hall that he got up and walked to the missing pearl and patted her arm, "Child, are you tired?" ”

Yizhu shook his head, "It's just a little helpless, but my father really doesn't have to worry about the matter of Yizhu and the eight horses." The jewel only treats him as a cousin, and has no other feelings. ”

When Murong Sheng heard this, he nodded with satisfaction, "That's very good." ”

The Lost Pearl exhaled lightly, and a ray of light flashed in her eyes, "The Eighth Emperor Sister and her cousin made it like this, and the Lost Pearl is the last thing they want to see." Now I just hope that they can slowly develop a relationship. ”

"What about you? Is there a suitable candidate for the pony? Murong Sheng patted the back of her hand, "In fact, the fastest way to break Pei Yi's thoughts is for you to find the missing pearl and your colt as soon as possible." It's just that I don't want you to casually choose to marry a man you don't love because of Pei Yi's influence. Lost pearl, you tell me, do you have a favorite man in your heart? ”

The man you love?

Suddenly, a handsome face crossed her mind.

That's Murong Xi......

But he was her royal brother, and neither of them would ever be able to ......

Yizhu shook his head and smiled like a flower, "Father doesn't have to worry about the matter of Yizhu, Yizhu believes that I will definitely be able to meet my beloved man, and I also believe that the person in Yizhu's heart will definitely like me!" ”

"If you have that kind of confidence, you will definitely be able to meet it."

"Yes."

This farce is over here, and the retiring bead is out of the Heart Cultivation Hall and back to the Yuehua Palace.

However, Murong Ze, who was hiding in the apse of the Heart Cultivation Palace, heard all this, and as soon as the relics left, he walked from the apse to the hall, and stepped forward to salute obediently, "Father." ”

"Awake?"

At noon, Murong Ze sneaked out of the Ming Yao Palace, and because he didn't find the missing pearl in the Yuehua Palace, he had no way to go, so he came to the Heart Cultivation Palace.

Seeing this, Murong Sheng knew that Concubine Liu was strict with Murong Ze, and he also knew what kind of mentality she had to treat Ze'er so harshly, but Ze'er was just a nine-year-old child in the end, and it was really cruel to him to put pressure all the time.

So he let him stay in the Heart Nourishing Hall for a while, but he didn't expect him to fall asleep on his stomach on the table in the inner hall.

I didn't get up until now.

"The matter of the Eighth Emperor Sister and the Eight Horses, Ze'er heard it." Murong Ze was honest and said bluntly, "Father, maybe the Eight Emperors will not reconcile with the Eighth Emperor Sister, and the two of them will continue to live." So don't allow them to get married. ”
