Chapter 40: Strength Protects Weaknesses

After playing with her master all night, and being ruthlessly whipped twice for her cheapness, she fell asleep in a daze, and the familiar scenes in the nightmare woke her up repeatedly.

"Xiao Jiu'er. ”

The sudden voice drove Yu Xuanji's drowsiness away, and the voice carried a bit of pretentious crying and distress, and she knew who it was when she heard it.

There was a pain in the center of his eyebrows for no reason, he raised his hand and rubbed it, and when he looked at it from a distance, he saw a gray-haired, dark purple embroidered gold robe wrapped around a round body, with a face of vicissitudes and decadence, like an old man who had reached his twilight years while wiping his tears while walking quickly, and his mouth was still numb and called "Xiao Jiu'er", this old naughty boy who looked alive.

And he is the former emperor's grandfather, Yu Xuanji's grandfather, and the little Jiu'er in his mouth is also her, as for the origin of this nickname, it is her grandfather who is addicted to alcohol, and once he was drunk and fast, he called her "little wine".

"Grandfather, you're finally here. She put down her thoughts, choked up with tears, and then raised her hand pitifully to wipe her tears, and was extremely aggrieved.

Looking at his granddaughter like a puppy, pitifully nested in a damp and foul-smelling corner, the heart of the old man is called a thousand arrows piercing the heart.

"That's how you treated her?" The old prince glared angrily at the official who bowed his head on the side. He wished he could be thrown into prison for seven or eight nights.

"Old Guogong, the lower officials are also impartial in enforcing the law!" The official said helplessly with a bitter face, the old Guogong is a well-known protector of shortcomings, and he doesn't know how to torture people when he sees his granddaughter being wronged!

"Then you can't throw her here! Look at her poor appearance, but I feel sorry for the old man. Next time, don't send it here, just send it to the Guogong Mansion. The old man beat his chest and pounded his feet, and by the way, he glanced at the official who nodded his head and waisted with dissatisfaction, and he really had no eyesight.

"Yes, yes, yes. The official replied in a cold sweat. The corners of his mouth twitched, and he violated the law and sent him directly to the Guogong Mansion! I'm afraid that even the emperor wouldn't dare to say it!

Next time, her grandfather really can't hope for her to be better, but it also shows how much this grandfather loves her. In fact, she couldn't understand that even if the original owner was bewitched by the Sun family, how could she be extremely scared of the old man's short-term pampering?

"Grandfather, it's dark and cold here, and if you don't come again, I'm afraid you won't see your granddaughter. Yu Xuanji glanced around, hugged her arms as if she was very cold, pursed her mouth aggrievedly, and looked at the distressed and indescribable old man with tears in her eyes. But he secretly laughed in his heart.

"Ouch, poor sight. The old man was very distressed and pulled Yu Xuanji up.

"It's not going to work. This was the first thing the old man said when he approached Yu Xuanji. He kept his voice so low that only the two of them could hear him.

Hmmm!...... What is the situation? The old man's face has changed too quickly! But when she glared at her as she looked like rotten wood that could not be carved, she was stunned for a moment.

"Grandfather, it's completely the enemy who is too cunning, don't blame the granddaughter for not being promising!" Yu Xuanji lowered her voice in defense.

Hey, isn't this girl afraid of him anymore? This initiative to let the maid come to him, it's enough to surprise him, I didn't expect to talk back to him now, and I'm not afraid of him at all, it seems that the rumors in Kyoto are true recently, this stupid girl has opened up?

Thinking about it this way, the old man's heart was so happy! But it was unseemly, and he quietly suppressed his joy.

"I'll talk about it later. The old man glared at her, but the smile in the old man's eyes was unmistakable.

Yu Xuanji pursed her lips and smiled, and stuck out her tongue playfully at him. But what does he mean by looking at her with a relieved look like his own stupid son has finally opened his mind?

The official looked at the grandfather and grandson and didn't know what to say, and he didn't dare to come forward to disturb, thinking about how to solve this case, after all, this is the granddaughter of the old prince, but if it is favoritism, it will ............

"Lord Zhang. ”

"Huh?" Just as he was in a dilemma, the voice of the old man came.

"Hurry up and close the case, I'm still busy taking her home!" The old man frowned and waved his hand, looking like he wanted to be tried quickly.

His words made Yu Xuanji's heart warm unconsciously, so the corners of his mouth couldn't help but hook up a shallow arc. This made her experience the happiness and satisfaction of being cared for again.

As soon as the picture turned, the official was already sitting majestically in the court, and the first person sitting on the left was the calm and relaxed old man. The corpse lying on her side covered with a white cloth was none other than Shopkeeper Zhou.

With Lao Guogong in charge, she naturally has nothing to fear, but she knows that things will not be so simple, and there must be actions on Sun's side, after all, she has worked hard to make such a play, so naturally she will not end hastily.

Thinking of this, the corners of her mouth hooked, and she ridiculed in every way.

"Yu Xuanji, this official asked you, did Shopkeeper Zhou go to the Jade Mansion to find you last night?" The official was startled, and Ling Yan asked.

"Yes. She said lightly.

"Shopkeeper Zhou's death, does it have anything to do with you?"

"Nope. She smiled, this old man is still a good envoy, this official asks these questions, not idiots know how to answer, obviously releasing water.

"Okay, this official declares Yu Xuanji acquitted. The official slapped the wood in shock, as if relieved.

"Master Xie. She bowed. The curvature of the corners of the mouth gradually deepens.

"Great, Xiao Jiu'er, let's go home!" the old man smiled. The smiling appearance is like a child's "simple". Just as he was about to get up, there was an untimely voice.

"Lord Zhang is too child's play, this is a human life. ”

Mo Chu walked in arrogantly, wearing a black shirt to show his royal majesty, his arrogant and disdainful eyes glanced at Yu Xuanji, who was leaning over, and then immediately approached the panicked official. And the one who followed behind Mo Chuyi was the Sun family with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Sure enough, it is not surprising! Sun is still here, and since everyone has arrived, then the play can start the gong. Looking back and turning around, she looked pale and smiled smartly.

"Are the princes and aunts here to redress their grievances with Shopkeeper Zhou?"

Her words meant something.

Hearing this, Mo Chuyun's body stiffened for a moment, but it was only for a moment, looking directly at her eyes that seemed to be smiling and not smiling, as if he had seen through everything, he opened his eyes unnaturally, and ignored her and walked towards the high hall.

"Old man. He smiled shallowly and bowed, all respectfully.

"Hmm. The old man replied without being salty, but he was very dissatisfied with Mo Chuyun in his heart, this kid didn't marry his little Jiu'er, and he also secretly talked to other women. He didn't want to see Xiao Jiu'er, and his old man naturally didn't want to see him either, and the case had already been closed, and this kid came to join in the fun, obviously because he didn't want Xiao Jiu'er to have a good time. Thinking of this, the old prince glanced at his eyes slightly, as if he didn't want to see him very much.

Knowing the old man's temperament, Mo Chuyun was not annoyed, straightened up stupidly, smiled decently, and turned to look at the official standing on the high hall.

"Lord Wang, the lower officials know their mistakes. The official was lying on the ground with interest, what kind of bad luck did he have!

"Your mistake will be discussed another day, and as for today, the case will be settled first. Mo Chu said in a loud voice. As long as Yu Xuanji's crime is confirmed this time, then the dissolution of the marriage contract is inevitable.

"Yes. The official wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and sat back on the chair, and then ordered someone to set up a place for Mo Chuyun on the right head.

"Yu Xuanji, this time the new and old accounts, let's settle them together. Sun stood beside Yu Xuanji, lowered his voice, and said with great pride, as if he had won the battle.

"Yes!" she smiled at her, but the smile was creepy. Sun wants to bring her down? It's too high-minded, hehe.

"Yu Xuanji, this king asks you, did you do the death of Shopkeeper Zhou?" Mo Chu's sharp words hit the nail on the head, without showing any mercy.

In the face of his fierce questioning, in addition to sneering, there was only sarcasm left in her heart, Mo Chuyong is worthy of being a "good dog" used by Sun's mother and daughter to bite people!

"Xuanji is a weak woman, she has no power to restrain the chicken, and it is almost the same as others killing me. She said coldly, and before she knew it, there was already a little more undisguised contempt and ridicule in her eyes.

"Shopkeeper Zhou left a letter of absence, do you know the contents of it?" he asked sharply, ignoring her mocking expression.

"The prince can read it with Xuanji. She looked at him with a smile, and the implication was that I don't know the letter, but you can read it with me.

This stupid girl really has more and more momentum from her back then, thinking of this, the old prince couldn't help but smile with relief, not worried that Yu Xuanji would burp because of this.

"The letter bluntly said that you drove it to death. Mo Chuyun's voice was a little colder, this crazy woman is dying to the end, and she is still so arrogant?

"Then please advise the prince, how did I force him to death?" She looked at him with an open mind and was taught, it was ridiculous, why did she force an inconsequential person to death?

Hearing this, the old man smiled in his heart, it was like this angry person who didn't pay for his life, okay. Xu Yu glanced at Yu Xuanji and told her that everything is with her grandfather, don't be afraid.

Yu Xuanji pursed her lips and smiled secretly, this old naughty boy was really not worried that she would be cut down by Mo Chuyun at all.

Mo Chuji looked at Yu Xuanji's expression, he gritted his teeth like watching a father kill his enemy, this crazy woman was simply too arrogant, if he didn't give her a ride, he would be sorry for her! Thinking of this, the killing intent in his eyes grew stronger.

"Yu Xuanji, this is above the public court, you have no one in your eyes, what kind of crime should you be guilty of!" Mo Chuyun couldn't help but roar.

"Xuanji is just reasonable, where is there no one in his eyes?" She was always innocent. Mo Chuyun can't stand this?

"Okay, what a reason. Mo Chuyi laughed angrily, sooner or later, you must cut off her tongue. After sorting out his angry thoughts, he took a long breath and said, "Yu Xuanji, in black and white, the evidence is conclusive, what else do you have to say?"

"Xuanji is convicted of a letter that can be forged alone, and the prince's trip is really biased. She looked at him with a sneer. There is sarcasm in his eyes, and he wants to condemn her, but he is too anxious.
