Chapter 87: Find Your Heart
Lin Yanxi raised his eyes to look at Shen Muzhou, he was very patient, nodded at her, and motioned for her to speak.
She put her eyes on the queen mother again, then leaned out of Shen Muzhou's arms, and slowly walked in front of the queen mother, she knelt down on her knees, put her hands on her forehead, and kowtowed.
said: "Queen Mother, the courtier did beat the third princess, she was acting crazy at the time, talking nonsense, trying to destroy the friendship of the alliance between Nanmin and Dongyang, in order to maintain the stability of the two countries, I had to stop the third princess from continuing to talk nonsense."
The queen sneered and said, "Then you mean that if you hit someone, the palace will thank you?"
Lin Yanxi said lightly, "Don't dare."
Shen Muzhou said on the side, "Why don't you ask the third princess what she said first?"
His gaze swept to the two noblewomen standing nearby, who were too frightened to speak, and took a half step back, "I didn't hear you."
"I, I didn't hear you either."
He stepped forward and looked at Wang Jingjing, who was kneeling on the ground, and said, "You say, to tell the truth, I can not hold you and the Liubu Shilang Mansion accountable."
"If you say a wrong word, slandering the daughter of the Taifu is enough to cure you for a capital crime, and no one can protect you."
Wang Jingjing knelt there and didn't dare to look up, her eyes stared at a pair of black shoes and boots in front of her, thinking that the black boots had broken her fingers just now, and beads of sweat fell on her forehead, dripping on the ground.
She was so humiliated but no one stood up for her to say a word, and the third princess was even more difficult to protect herself, and she didn't get half of the benefits and suffered many times, and then the family was implicated because of this, and the gains outweighed the losses.
She didn't speak for a long time, Shen Muzhou was about to lose patience, the toe of her shoes just moved, Wang Jingjing immediately cried, "I said! I said."
"The third princess said that Lin Yanxi was, and she came out of the hook fence, specifically to seduce men, and said that the prince of Dongyang was ......."
"It's ***'s proton, saying that they were born a pair, and they are all ......***, things."
The queen glanced at the third princess who was shrunk into a ball, what a fool.
Saying these words, she is a princess, and if she is really investigated, it will be a capital crime.
Wang Jingjing saw that everyone present was silent, and kowtowed vigorously and said, "What I said is all the truth, it is the truth."
Shen Muzhou suppressed his anger and asked, "Shen Huayun, did you say such a thing?"
The third princess was lying on the ground dying, but she was still stiff, "What did I say? As soon as this Lin Yanxi recovers his senses, you and His Royal Highness the Prince, don't they all revolve around her? Now even protons are the same, what is the thing that two people are not ***?"
"A thing abandoned by Dongyang...... Belch! Ah, help, help, queen save me!"
Before she finished her words, Shen Muzhou picked up the third princess from the ground, and then threw it into the pool mercilessly.
Shen Muzhou stood on the edge of the pond and looked at the people who were thrown into the water and said, "This king sees that you are not clear in your mind, and as a princess, you are full of foul language like a jealous woman."
"The prince of Dongyang is committed to Nanmin for the sake of the two countries, and he will humiliate you?"
"The water in the pool is cool, and you should reflect on it in the water."
Shen Huayun cried more and more fiercely in the pool, he didn't know what he had done wrong, why did everyone look at Lin Yanxi, obviously he was the one who suffered.
"The queen mother saves me, the queen mother saves me!"
The queen glanced at her calmly, and her eyes fell on Lin Yanxi and said, "You get up first."
Lin Yanxi saluted again obediently and said, "Thank you, Queen Mother."
During the whole process, Lin Yanxi was polite and courteous, well-organized, maybe his behavior was a little excessive, but in general, he couldn't find anything wrong, and he was so indifferent as if this matter had nothing to do with him.
The queen looked at Luo Qiyu again, sighed and said, "Your Highness has been wronged, the third princess has been delicate since she was a child, and it is the palace that neglects discipline."
Luo Qiyu's body stiffened, although the whole incident revolved around him, he could always keep himself out of the turmoil, calmly looking at everyone, without joy or sorrow.
He nodded slightly and returned the salute.
Shen Huayun, who fell into the water, felt that the queen was crazy, and Nan Min's *** actually bowed his head to a prince who no one wanted.
Why is everyone saying she's at fault?
What did she do wrong?
Luo Qiyu is just a lost dog, she is happy to see it, and she wants to tease it twice when she is fine, but a beast is a beast, she doesn't know how to be grateful, but always gives her a cold face, a dog who can't learn to wag her tail, and now she dares to fornicate with others.
"Why did the Queen Mother apologize to him? If it weren't for Nan Min's protection, Dongyang would have died a long time ago, and he Luo Qiyu would be even more lowly and unpleasant, wouldn't he!"
The queen really killed this ignorant stinky girl with a knife.
Shen Muzhou said, "You stop me! Dongyang and Nanmin are friendly and support each other, regardless of high and low, Nanmin is in this drought, thanks to the prince's letter back to Dongyang to help, Nanmin can survive to this day."
"If it weren't for the prince of Dongyang, you, the princess, would have starved to death by the drought."
The queen's face was embarrassed, Shen Muzhou was right, now is the time when Dongyang is useful, Dongyang has just sent 100,000 stone of grain to alleviate the disaster, and I don't know when the drought will end.
If this matter is messed up because of this stinky girl, the emperor will blame it, and she will have to skin this fool alive.
The queen rubbed her forehead, sighed and said, "Prince Dongyang, all the mistakes are due to the unfavorable teachings of this palace, I hope Dongyang will not have a dislike with Nan Min because of this."
Luo Qiyu has a bookish aroma on his body, and he and Shen Muzhou both seem to be moody people, but the coldness and alienation on Shen Muzhou's body is even heavier, which makes people afraid to approach.
But Luo Qiyu makes people feel very comfortable, no matter how much they have been wronged and bullied, they have endured it silently, which makes people feel pity.
He frowned slightly, and then smiled lightly: "Dongyang and Nan Min will never be affected by a little princess."
These words are light, but they are very hurtful.
"A little princess." Lin Yanxi laughed out loud with a "poof".
The queen glanced at Lin Yanxi with some displeasure, this girl's eyebrows and eyes were full of a smug look of evil breath, how could there be a little innocent and pitiful look that was cowering and timid just now.
This foxy appearance is no wonder Jing Xin can't fight her.
Lin Yanxi felt a pair of vicious eyes staring at her, and quickly restrained her smile and stayed behind Shen Muzhou honestly.
Shen Huayun fell into the water, her face was blue and white, she was very embarrassed, what she cared about most was the low status of her mother, Luo Qiyun's words were undoubtedly sprinkling salt on her heart.
The man who sprinkled the salt was still the man she cared about the most.
She can be embarrassed in front of anyone and be despised by everyone, but she doesn't want to be like this in front of Luo Qiyu, he is already contemptuous and looks down on her, and he will never have her in his eyes in the future.
"The palace is tired, let's go, let's sit first."
The queen walked to the main seat in the middle of the imperial garden with the support of several little maidservants, and Shen Huayun's maidservants knelt in front of the queen and asked, "The queen is gracious, the third princess has always been weak, may I ask the queen mother, when can the third princess come out of the pool and ask a royal doctor to take a look?"
Her steps paused, and she glanced at the people in the pool coldly, "When she admits her mistake, she will first fish it out of the water and send it back to the dormitory, as for the imperial doctor, she said wildly, contemptuous of the prince of Dongyang, first suffer some hardships and repent before asking the imperial doctor."
"Is the Prince of Dongyang satisfied?" She asked.
Luo Qiyu saluted, "Niangniang is the master of the harem, and it is all up to the queen to decide."
The queen was satisfied with his acquaintance, didn't say anything more, and walked away with the support of the little palace maid.
The maidservant kowtowed again and again and said, "Thank you, Queen Mother, for your kindness."
The people around him also dispersed, and Luo Jingxin took a few steps forward and called Shen Muzhou, "Nine Princes."
He turned his head and stared at her expressionlessly.
Tears welled up in her eyes and she asked, "Lord Wang, but you want to hate me because of today's incident?"
It seems that the vicious words she said just now are still deeply rooted in her heart, who doesn't want to be a kind and pleasing person, especially in front of the person they like.
Lin Yanxi is all to blame for this, the prince cares too much about that ***, so she is forced to do things urgently.
Shen Muzhou's eyes were complicated for a moment, and he barely squeezed out a smile and said lightly, "Xin'er, I know that your heart is not bad."
Luo Jingxin's worried look instantly subsided, and he looked at him aggrievedly and pitifully, and smiled with relief.
Heart.
He was finally willing to call her heart like he had done when he was a child.
Shen Muzhou didn't stay long, he naturally took Lin Yanxi's hand and led her to the seat together, this scene fell in Luo Jingxin's eyes, Luo Jingxin didn't say anything.
It is normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, if you love this woman today, you will love others tomorrow, Lin Yanxi, how long can you be proud?
When Muzhou gets tired of you, she will find out that she is good, and she just needs to endure it again.
Lin Yanxi followed Shen Muzhou for a few steps and stopped again.
Shen Muzhou asked, "What's wrong?"
"Find your heart."
She broke free of Shen Muzhou's big hand, turned around and trotted two steps, walked to Luo Wanwan's side, took Luo Wanwan's arm, and walked forward with her.
Shen Muzhou was stunned for a moment, seeing her and Luo Wanwan passing in front of him talking and laughing, he looked at the small stove in his hand and shook his head helplessly.
What a little conscienceless.
After everyone dispersed, Luo Qizhen glanced coldly at the embarrassed woman in the pool.
She was crying, but when she saw Luo Qiyu looking at her, she stopped crying and looked at him fixedly, looking at him fixedly.
The third princess, who has always been high, has cautious eyes, expecting something, just like a person who desperately falls in the abyss and longs to grasp a straw.
Luo Qizhen's deep eyes looked at her for a long time, and then showed a satisfied smile.
At the sight of that smile, she fell into unprecedented despair, more painful than the pain of broken bones in her shoulder
It's almost time to start at the palace banquet.
Luo Wanwan and Luo Jingxin sat on one side, Shen Muzhou and Lin Yanxi sat opposite them, and Lin Yanxi kept looking at the imperial garden in the distance with some concern.
said, "Why hasn't the smoke come yet, and the prince hasn't come either."
A bad feeling burned in her heart.
Shen Muzhou said in a low voice, "I'll let Xiao Liu look for it."
At this moment, the slender little eunuch shouted, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived, and the third lady of the Lin family has arrived—"
Sure enough, the two of them came together.
After a while, several people walked to the banquet, followed by two women behind the prince.
One is Lin Ruoyan, and the other is Lin Kite.
Why is Lin Kite here?!
