Chapter 167: The fog lifts

A look of displeasure flashed on Jing Rong's face, he picked up the jade pendant, raised his eyebrows, raised his eyes and smiled at Mu Xuefu, then turned his head to look at Pan Qihao, and said, "When did the princess give you this piece of jade?" ”

Pan Qihao affirmed: "It was given to her subordinates the night before the princess went to Jiangnan." ”

"Are you sure it's this jade?" Jing Rong put the jade in front of his eyes, and asked again: "Do you want to carefully look at the pattern on it, and then answer it to this king seriously." ”

Pan Qihao said without hesitation: "The subordinates are indeed this piece of jade." Since the princess gave it to her subordinates, her subordinates have been keeping it close to her. ”

Jing Rong took the jade pendant in his palm and looked at it carefully, and the smile on his face became stronger and stronger. After a while, he chuckled, "But this piece of jade was bought by this king for the princess when he was in Jiangnan." ”

As soon as the words came out, everyone was stunned, thinking that Mu Xuefu's crime had been confirmed, but they didn't expect the peak to turn around.

Princess Yu was even more stunned, and she couldn't slow down for a long time, and after a while, she said: "Many people in the palace know that Mu often wears this jade pendant, could it be that the prince also panicked in order to help Mu Shi shirk his responsibility?" ”

The corners of Jing Rong's evil eyes picked upward, and he took out a piece of jade from his arms, which was almost exactly the same as the one in his hand, "The jade pendant that Xue Fu often wears has always been on this king. ”

Mu Xuefu took the jade pendant from his hand, and touched the carved lines on it with her fingers, and the begonia dripping jasper hairpin reflected the clear and clear light, adding a bit of grace to her. She smiled slightly, and said coquettishly: "When I was in Hengyang City, once the prince accompanied me shopping, and accidentally met a jade pendant that was almost similar to mine, and the prince bought it for me on a whim. And I gave my own to the prince, and I wore the new one. ”

Jing Rong's gaze shifted from Mu Xuefu's face, stared at Pan Qihao, and said, "Since this king bought it for the princess, how could it be that it was given to you a few months ago?" It's clearly a lie! Before the words fell, Jing Rong picked up the teacup in his hand and threw it on his face, and in an instant, Pan Qihao's forehead seemed to be pierced with blood, and blood flowed all over his face. The teacup was overflowing with tea, and the whole cup of water was covered on his head. His head was wet, and his face was covered with blood, and he was very embarrassed.

How could Princess Yu easily reveal this, and said: "Maybe the Mu family has two identical jade pendants, one for you and one for the adulterer." ”

Mu Xuefu's eyes with autumn water burned with a cold ghostly fire, as sharp as an ice pick on the eaves of a cold day, and said, "The jade pendant is just similar, but it is not exactly the same. The jade pendant I gave to the prince has a phoenix on it, and the prince gave me a luci. She glanced at the other jade pendant, "If you don't believe in Princess Yu, you can take it and take a good look at it." ”

Princess Yu was choked, and she was a little embarrassed for a while, and she couldn't speak for a long time.

Mu Xuefu ignored Princess Yu's embarrassment, looked at Pan Qihao and said, "I have no grudge with you for a long time, and I have no enmity for a long time, why do you want to harm me so much?" She leaned back in her chair and tapped her fingers on the table, "The swing rope broke two days ago, it's your masterpiece, right?" You know I like to play on the swing every day at dusk, so I took the opportunity to make me fall off the swing while swinging. Then you take the opportunity to save me, just in time for the prince to see. And it was at that time that you stole the jade pendant from me, right? Today, you even bought off the people around the prince and led me to Fangfei Pavilion. I want to leave, but you're still holding me back. He even hugged me when someone came, so that everyone could see that scene, so that I had an affair with you. ”

Seeing that Pan Qihao always said nothing, Mu Xuefu continued: "You first spoke for me in front of everyone, so that people could misunderstand what I really have with you. Then, after the torture, you confessed your confession word for word. and pretended to be in love with me in front of the prince, deepening the prince's suspicion of me. Originally, everything was seamless, but it's a pity that Xiao He defeated Xiao He, you think that with this jade pendant, I will never turn over. But you didn't expect that it was precisely this jade pendant that exposed your lies. The real phoenix jade pendant has always been on the prince, and you stole it just because I and the prince just bought, since the prince bought it in Hengyang City, how could it arrive in your hands a few months ago. You say, how big a hole is in your lie? ”

Zi Yao snorted contemptuously, and a smug look swept his eyebrows, "Even the phoenix can't tell the difference between the phoenix and the bird, and you want to slander our princess, I see that you are playing a lantern in a thatched house, a tiger has teeth pulled out of its mouth, and a feces shell mantis comes out of its hole."

Hong Shao covered his mouth and smiled, and asked, "What do you mean?" ”

The corners of Zi Yao's eyes flew, and he said crisply: "Look for death!" ”

The two of them sang and harmonized, which made everyone in the hall laugh, and even Jingrong raised the corners of his mouth.

Princess Xuan's eyes rolled and said gently: "This guard deliberately lied and made a scene, causing the mother to almost blame the princess. ”

Mu Xuefu smiled and said: "Princess Yu was moved just now, and she was a "slut" and "adulterer" and adulterer, and my heart felt like it was twisted into a hemp ball. It is also the time when the prince comes back, if it is any later, I am afraid that Princess Yu will torture me to extract a confession. ”

"How? Sister-in-law Wang must be thinking crookedly. Princess Xuan's face was pale, she glanced at Princess Yu, and said, "The mother concubine is also because she was deceived by a traitor for a while, so she will listen to the words of others." Speaking of which, this is not because of the deep responsibility of love. In the heart of the mother, Brother Wang is no different from her own son, the so-called concern is chaotic, and when she hears others say that her daughter-in-law betrayed her son, she will naturally be annoyed and angry, so she will burn her anger on her sister-in-law. Please forgive the sister-in-law, this is the mother's motherly heart for the princess. ”

Mu Xuefu had to admire the kung fu on her lips, what she said was wild, and what was black could be said to be white. On weekdays, I just thought she was a needle, but I didn't expect her to be so clever with her tongue.

"In autumn, the fire is big, the liver is vigorous, and it needs to be vented, which is understandable." With a slight slush, Mu Xuefu said: "I heard that Princess Yu's health has been poor these days, and it is also that people who have been sick for a long time are the most susceptible to mood swings and love to be angry. She looked sideways at Jing Rong, "It's better to do this, let the doctor prescribe more Sanbai soup, six flavor pills or rejuvenation pills for Princess Yu to take, these are all good recipes for strengthening the foundation and improving longevity every year, and may help Princess Yu's condition." ”

What Mu Xuefu said was extremely understated, but a few people couldn't help but cover their mouths and snicker. Jing Rong pursed the corners of her lips, quietly pinched her palm, and teased: "I don't know the proportion, where is Princess Yu so old?" ”

Mu Xuefu's expression was flying, pretending to be ignorant and simple, "The concubine didn't say that Princess Yu was old, but a woman in her forties was forty tofu scum, although Princess Yu looked young and looked like a forty-something, but she should also take care of her body more." The concubine is kind-hearted, how can the prince say that the concubine doesn't know how to measure. ”

As soon as these words came out, Princess Yu's face suddenly turned pale. Looking at it like forty people, she hasn't reached forty yet! This Mu Xuefu is insulting and teasing her in a different way! There are also three white soups and six flavor pills for women who are old, or menopausal, or menopausal, Mu Xuefu is clearly laughing at her age. How could she easily swallow this ridicule, "This princess is in good health, it's better to leave these three white soups and six flavor pills for you to eat." I look at you, it's better to maintain it earlier, don't rely on being young now and don't pay attention to it, otherwise in a few years, you will wither and fade, and there will be new people entering the house, and then I am afraid that you will be alone in the empty house. ”

Mu Xuefu's eyes cut water, and a pool of clear spring-like charming eyes went straight into Jingrong's eyes. She looked directly at him affectionately, the smile on her face shy and beautiful. In a blink of an eye, he glanced at Princess Yu again, and said coquettishly: "Fortunately, I am still young now, and there should be a few decades when my flower pollen fades." ”

This is a bit far-fetched, originally talking about Mu Xuefu, but talking about her old age. Princess Yu held her breath in her heart, and pointed the finger at Mu Xuefu again, "Since you said that this guard is lying and deliberately frames you, what about the other three?" Could it be that they will frame you together? ”

Luo Xian's chin was slender and followed her: "Besides, the princess also said that this guard has no grievances with you in the long days and no enmity in the near future, so why is he calculating the princess so much?" This is really puzzling. ”

Mu Xuefu didn't care, covered her mouth and yawned, her face showed a little tiredness, and said, "Pan Qihao's words have been confirmed to be lies, where are you?" Is it to confess leniently and tell the people who instructed you behind your back, or to be stubborn and insist on this princess? If you tell the truth now, this princess will spare your life. If you still insist on going your own way, then don't blame this princess for making an example. She tilted her body, leaned lazily on her soft back, and supported her hand with her hand, "It doesn't matter if you don't say anything, when Steward Zhou comes back, everything will naturally know." ”

Mu Xuefu's voice was light, like a thin smoke, but the words were cold, like ice slag in a cold pool, as if every word was freezing people's hearts.

The maidservant who was the first to accuse Mu Xuefu shrank in fright, her face gradually pale, and her wandering gaze was panicked and frightened, like a fleeing prey. I'm afraid that I will be caught by the hunter in the next moment.

Finding a breakthrough, Mu Xuefu's Qingling voice remembered again, adding a little coldness, "If you can chew the root of your tongue and make up nonsense, I will cut your tongue first and feed it to the dog." ”

"The slave said, the slave said." Because of Mu Xuefu's words, the maid's face completely lost its blood, her head slammed on the ground, and a heavy voice came out, "It's Concubine Huafang, she gave the slave a large sum of money, and asked the slave to accuse the princess according to her instructions." The slave didn't want to blame the princess, but if the slave didn't listen to her, she would push the slave into the well and drown. The slave maid was also forced to ask the princess and princess to spare their lives. ”
