These days, he is busy with Li Nuo and Bai Jinglian's affairs, and the court affairs are also a lot of pressure, and after Ning Yunxiao bluntly said that he took care of everything, Li Yiyan went all about handling government affairs. The two of them have their own things to do, and they see each other a little less.

It wasn't until ten days later that Changli finally sent the last piece of information, and Ning Yunxiao was relieved, and after ordering someone to report to Li Yiyan, he began to prepare.

Three days later, the whole palace was filled with a joyful atmosphere, I don't know, I thought it was the princess who was going to get married, and the people who came and went were cautious and comparable to receiving foreign envoys.

Ning Yunxiao saw that the arrangement was almost done, so he ordered someone to invite Li Yiyan. At the same time, Bai Jinglian and Li Nuo arrived one after another......

When they saw that there were only four sets of tables and chairs in the Imperial Garden, the two of them were stunned for a moment, but soon, Li Yiyan arrived, and the palace banquet began, and the two of them naturally couldn't be too familiar, so they didn't say anything.

Ning Yunxiao's eyes have been on her since Li Nuo came in, and naturally she can see the small movements between the two clearly, a smile tugged at the corner of her mouth, and she didn't say much.

Li Yiyan was a little confused about what medicine was sold in Ning Yunxiao's gourd, but since he promised to give it all to her, he naturally didn't interfere. Today, when I heard that the palace people came to the Imperial Garden, and saw that Bai Jinglian and Li Nuo had arrived, I guessed that everything had been checked clearly.

"Today's small banquet, everyone doesn't have to be formal, it's just for yourself." Li Yiyan raised his glass first, nodded to Ning Yunxiao from afar, and drank it all.

Ning Yunxiao understood what he meant, and replied with a light smile.

After three rounds of drinking, the politeness is over, and next, it's time to make a good show. Ning Yunxiao got up and clapped his hands, and Changli, who had received the hint, immediately appeared in front of everyone from the shadows.

"Today's banquet, there is one thing to figure out." Ning Yunxiao said lightly, admiring the uncertainty on Bai Jinglian's face by the way, "Many years ago, there was a battle in the palace and the harem, and some bad things happened. Originally, the emperor registered, changed the dynasty, and everything should pass away with the wind, but unfortunately, these days, I stumbled upon that the past not only failed to completely end, but turned out a little wave, I don't know how the two of you feel? ”

Now on the table, even if you add Changli, there is no one, and it is self-evident who Ning Yunxiao is asking.

Bai Jinglian got up, saluted from afar, and smiled a little unnaturally, "Where did Niangniang say, the secret history of the palace, how can we outsiders easily involve it?" ”

"It's also said that the secret history of the palace is indeed inconvenient for outsiders to get involved." Ning Yunxiao was very well-cultivated, and she was still smiling like that, but then she changed her words, and her eyes became more fierce when she looked at Bai Jinglian, "So there are no outsiders today, I only invited a few people involved in the banquet back then, I don't know if you understand what I mean?" ”

Bai Jinglian lowered his head and did not answer.

Ning Yunxiao didn't mean to be polite at all, and continued: "It's okay if you don't answer, anyway, if you have hatred in your heart, use others, and design frames, you have long lost your feelings." ”

Speaking of this, Ning Yunxiao's gaze turned to Li Nuo, who had been sitting quietly, with a complicated look.

"Chang Li, you will tell everyone the results of your investigation." Ning Yunxiao sat down after giving an order, took the teacup and drank the tea slowly, calmly and calmly.

Changli slowly said everything he had found.

In the battle of the harem in the front, Li Yiyan was clear, so he had been observing the expressions of Li Nuo and Bai Jinglian. Li Nuo's face was full of anger and she had imagined that she was not a scheming girl, so she would naturally empathize with the bitter history of harem women.

As for Bai Jinglian, he has always known everything, and when he heard the other party's shallow words at this moment, he naturally understood that today's so-called palace banquet is just a bureau, a bureau specially designed for himself.

He looked at Ning Yunxiao, who was calmly drinking tea, his eyes became more and more complicated, with both admiration and respect, and fear.

This woman ...... This woman!

She is smart, but she also knows how to be restrained, she can preside over the overall situation when she stands next to Li Yiyan, but she will not invade Li Yiyan's light.

She tirelessly guards everything she wants to protect, without regrets.

Bai Jinglian suddenly felt a little uncomfortable......

Changli is very smart, when he told it, he didn't immediately explain that she was the little princess back then, but directly sought truth from facts, "...... Concubine Hua is dominant, comparable to a queen, and no one in the palace dares to disobey. But at one point, Concubine Hua took a pair of children to the imperial garden, but saw that the palace where she lived suddenly caught fire, and hurriedly rushed back. At that time, the fire was raging, everyone was busy fighting the fire, the scene was a mess, no one noticed that Concubine Rong's son mixed into the palace, secretly took away the little princess who was no one to take care of at that time, and left the palace. ”

Li Nuo was originally a person with great feelings, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but shoot the case, and said angrily: "It's too much, the battle of the year has long ended, even if Concubine Rong dies unjustly, it is also the responsibility of the queen, besides, what's wrong with the child, why take the child away?" ”

When Ning Yunxiao heard this, he knew that his goal had been basically achieved. She originally wanted to test whether Li Nuo knew her identity, but now it seems that she at least has clear grievances, so it will be much easier for her and the emperor to finally recognize each other.

Changli continued.

Concubine Rong's son took Concubine Hua's youngest daughter, but it didn't take long for the little princess to be abducted by traffickers. Concubine Hua's son was already hateful, so naturally he didn't care what would happen to the child, so he didn't look for it. can make people, and many years later, the two children met again. ”

"Huh? How could such a thing happen? Li Nuo listened to it and unconsciously answered.

Changli glanced at her, and his gaze couldn't help but soften, "Yes, but it's not a good thing." ”

"Why?"

"Because Concubine Rong's son always has a purpose that is not pure." For Li Nuo, Changli was also a little unbearable, after all, he had been tracking for so long, and everything was clear, and Li Nuo was clearly involved...... She is innocent.

It has been more than ten years since Concubine Rong's son saw the little princess again, but the jealousy of Concubine Hua in his heart has not diminished at all. So he thought of a good way to take revenge, he wanted to let Concubine Hua's children kill each other, in this case, the degree of revenge is not known how many times higher. For this reason, he even managed to revise the historical records in the palace and erase all the evidence of the existence of the little princess, and after that, he found a way to send the little princess into the palace and to the emperor. After Changli finished speaking, he looked at Li Nuo in a light tone: "You are the little princess back then, the sister of the emperor's mother!" ”

"What?!" Li Nuo stood up in shock, and looked at Bai Jinglian with a somewhat pale face, "How is it possible?" How could I be ......"

Bai Jinglian never said a word.

Ning Yunxiao left her seat, walked to Li Nuo's side, and patted her shoulder comfortingly, "When you were a child, you were once sold to a big family as a child daughter-in-law, didn't you?" ”

Li Nuo nodded dumbly, but then shook off Ning Yunxiao's hand again, and said with full vigilance: "Since you have investigated so many things, what's so strange about being able to find out about my previous affairs?" Why do you say that I am the little princess back then? Oh, I see, you don't want me to take revenge, you don't want me to hurt the emperor, do you? That's why you made up all this stuff to fool me! ”

Although she said loudly, it was actually very inward-looking, and Ning Yunxiao, who was closest to her, could clearly detect the tremor in her tone.

"Li Nuo, making up such a story is not good for us......" Ning Yunxiao knew that Li Nuo was in an unstable mood now, so he tried his best to be patient, "After all, the emperor is the emperor, and there are many guards in the palace, and it is not easy for you to succeed, so I ask you to calm down and think carefully, in the past, did you ever have a jade pendant, the front is a phoenix, and the back is engraved with the word 'Nuo'." ”

Li Nuo's heart tightened when she heard this, she hadn't even said Bai Jinglian about this secret, just because this thing had been hanging on her since she could remember, she always felt that this thing should be related to her life experience, so she was especially careful to protect it.

Supposedly, unless someone in this world is really related to her background, it is impossible to know about this!

Could it be that she really ......

Li Nuo was a little shaken, but finally bit his lip and said, "Why do you say that with this jade pendant, it is the little princess back then?" There are all kinds of coincidences in the world, I may ...... Maybe ......"

Speaking of this, she herself knew that the possibility was really pitiful, and she suddenly couldn't say anything.

And Li Yiyan, who had been listening quietly from the side, also understood instantly, got up and walked to Li Nuo's side, personally took out a jade pendant from his neck, and handed it to Li Nuo: "Your piece and mine should be a pair, the material is the same, and the carving technique is the same." I have a dragon on the front and 'Yan' on the back, if you don't believe me, you can compare it with yours. ”

Li Nuo trembled and took out the jade pendant around his neck, two extremely similar jade pendants were lying quietly in the palm of his hand, the tentacles were warm, there was simply no stronger evidence than this.

Li Nuo staggered back two steps and muttered, "This...... How can it be? ”

In a daze, she rushed to Bai Jinglian without thinking, grabbed his arm and asked, "You tell me, this is not true, isn't my biological mother Concubine Rong?" It was Concubine Hua and the queen who killed Concubine Rong, I am not Concubine Hua's child! Tell me! ”

She is emotionally unstable now, her speed and action are extremely fast, and it was too late for several other people to react one after another, the scene changed in an instant, and no one knew how Bai Jinglian passed the inspection with a weapon...... Seeing that the matter was revealed, Bai Jinglian didn't even have the last struggle, and directly put a dagger on the neck of Li Nuo, who rushed over, and stared at the few people in front of him with a grim look, "It seems that I can't pretend to be able to do it, so let's not pretend......"

He behaved like this, there was no need to explain it at all, Li Nuo also understood who was cheating on her all along, both remorseful and sad, and even more heartbroken that he had mistrusted Bai Jinglian for a long time, closed his eyes, tears rolled down his cheeks, and splashed a small splash on the dagger.

"Brother...... Brother ......"

Li Yiyan's heart tightened when he heard her trembling voice call out "brother", and the induction between the twins made him understand that Li Nuo had made a certain choice, and this choice was something he didn't want to see.

"Brother, sister mistakenly believed in villains, and now it is irretrievable, and I can only use my own life to completely remove obstacles to the future for my brother." Li Nuo was in tears, but his voice was more firm, "Brother, don't let ...... go"

Before he could finish his sentence, Li Nuo tilted his head and slammed himself into the dagger.

In an instant, blood flowers came out, and a wound was cut on the girl's white neck, and the speed was so fast that Bai Jinglian didn't even have time to react......
