Mu Zhixi's eyes tightened slightly, hiding a trace of weakness, and she raised her eyes and smiled.

"Didn't I just say everything, can't my husband trust me?"

Xiao Yiyan's sharp gaze was full of scrutiny, looked her up and down, and spoke in a deep voice.

"You don't have to ask the Secret Guard before you are willing to tell the truth. ”

Qiushuang lowered her head and held her breath.

Hey-she knew that this kind of thing couldn't be hidden from the prince at all.

Mu Zhixi tugged at his sleeve, and her tone was soft, "Husband, don't be angry, I didn't want you to worry, so I lied." ”

Xiao Yiyan brushed her hand away, and there was no expression on her handsome face.

"If you don't want me to worry, why do you want to run out without telling this king? Take the king's words as a deaf ear?"

Mu Zhixi cried with a sad face, pitifully begging for mercy.

"Husband, I was wrong, I won't dare next time. You have a lot of adults, spare me this time~"

"It's useless to be coquettish, does this king seem to be very talkative?"

He was angry because he was worried about her safety.

She's fine, she doesn't take it seriously at all.

"This king is reluctant to punish you, but your handmaid ......" Xiao Yiyan glanced at Qiushuang, his eyes cold and terrifying.

Mu Zhixi guessed what he wanted to say and immediately interrupted.

"Qiushuang was forced by me, husband, don't punish her, punish me, I will never complain!"

She protected the autumn frost behind her, her eyes firm.

Autumn Frost is loyal to her, and she can't let her be hurt.

Xiao Yiyan just wanted to scare her and make her have a longer memory.

Seeing that she was so nervous, the servant girl did not pursue it further.

"Come into the house with the king. His commanding tone sounded, and his tone was a little impatient.

"What about Qiushuang? did the husband promise not to punish her?"

Xiao Yiyan leaned closer, looked at her slightly flustered little face, and smiled.

"According to what Concubine Ai said, this king will not punish her, but will punish you. ”

The atmosphere inexplicably added a bit of love to the day, and Mu Zhixi trembled.

After following Xiao Yiyan into the house, she was uneasy in her heart.

He didn't really want to punish her, did he?

Suddenly, Xiao Yiyan stopped.

She was absent-minded and hit him directly in the back.

"Explain to the king who you went to see and what you did. ”

He could have asked the Dark Guard.

But he needed her honesty more.

He wanted her to know that the guards were there to protect her, not to spy on her.

Mu Zhixi thought for a moment, but still told him and Pan.

"I'm going to see Zhao Li's mother, Zhu.

"As soon as Zhao Li died, the Zhao family counted the account on the head of the prince, and the Zhu family also said that the Zhu family was involved.

"So, I told the truth to the Zhu family, asked her to help, and ruined the queen's plan. In this way, the husband can get out of the way. ”

Xiao Yiyan listened carefully, and his eyes became gentle.

I didn't think she would do this for him.

"In that case, why hide it from this king?"

"I'm afraid that my husband won't agree with me leaving the house, and you seem to be very busy these days......"

Xiao Yiyan raised her chin, with a little helplessness in her eyes.

"This king is not an unreasonable person, what you want to do in the future, tell this king directly.

"As long as you don't go out to see Xiao Chengze, this king will be approved. ”

"Husband, you mean, the grounding of me has been lifted?!" Mu Zhixi was very excited, and there was light in her eyes, flickering like stars in the night sky.

Xiao Yiyan's chin pressed slightly.

"Hmm. The king will allow you to enter and leave the palace freely. But they must be accompanied by the king. ”

Mu Zhixi nodded heavily, and responded briskly: "No problem! ”

Does this mean that Xiao Yiyan is starting to trust her?

What a big step forward!

She hugged him happily and smiled like a flower.

Zhao Mansion.

After Zhu came back from the teahouse, the whole person was in a state of disgrace, Zhao Gan called her, and she did not react.

"What's the matter, go out and lose your soul!" Zhao Qian was very dissatisfied and accused her of not.

Next to him, the maidservant helped explain: "Master, after the accident of the son, the lady was grief-stricken, and it will take a long time to recover." ”

Thinking of his dead son, Zhao Qian sighed.

"The emperor has returned to the palace, I will enter the palace to face the saint, and let him be the master of our Zhao family!"

Zhu's eyes were blank and he didn't pay attention to Zhao Qian.

She wasn't sure if Zhao Gan was clear about the queen's plan.

Married for decades, she is willing to believe in him.

After all, tiger poison does not eat children, even if Zhao Gan loses his conscience, he will not push his son to death.

Seeing that Zhao Qian was about to go out, Zhu got up to stop him.

"Master, let's wait a little longer. ”

"Wait, wait, what?" Zhao Qian didn't understand what she meant.

"I don't believe Li'er is gone. The corpse was burned like that, who can prove that it was our son? Master, let's send someone outside to look for it, Li'er may still be alive......"

The more Zhao Qian listened, the more strange he felt, shook off Zhu's hand, and scolded angrily.

"I think you're really stunned! People are dead, you yourself are crazy, don't pull others!"

"Master, if you believe me, Li'er must still be alive. Mother and son are connected, I have a very strong feeling......"

Zhu's tone was very affirmative, which made Zhao Gan suddenly displeased.

"Come, send the lady back to the courtyard, find a doctor, and give her a good look. ”

This woman is crazy!

Zhao Gan asked people to prepare a carriage and enter the palace with the rest of the Zhao family to face the saint.

The emperor had already known about Zhao Li's matter, and he had already prepared to summon them directly in the imperial study.

"I beg the emperor to make the decision for my son Zhao Li and severely punish the perpetrators!"

"Your Majesty, the prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people, His Royal Highness the King of War disregards people's lives, kills people in public and sets fires, God will not tolerate it!"

"Please ask the emperor to severely punish the war king!"

......

The Zhao family is almost always in a high position.

Everyone admonished the emperor together, and the momentum was huge, alarming the entire harem.

When the queen learned of this, she also came to the imperial study.

She shared the same hatred with the Zhao family and complained with grief.

"Your Majesty, Zhao Li is the nephew of the concubine, he returned to Huangquan at a young age, and the concubine is very sad. I ask the emperor to deal with it impartially in order to calm down the anger. ”

The folds on the desk were piled high, and the emperor took a copy and said something casually.

"Spread my will, declare war on the king and enter the palace. ”

Gonggong Chen hunched his waist and replied "Woo".

He passed the emperor's dictation to the palace of the king of war, and did not forget to remind him.

"Lord Wang, the Zhao family has made trouble in the palace, and the emperor wants to punish you severely.

"The old slave can see that the emperor can't bear to punish His Royal Highness, as long as His Royal Highness intercedes with the emperor, the emperor will definitely remember your great achievements......"

"Get out. Xiao Yiyan interrupted Chen's words in a cold voice, full of arrogance and empty eyes.

When the mother concubine was alive, she often said that the eldest husband stood between heaven and earth, and would rather be broken than broken.

Zhao Li's incident made him bow his head and admit his mistakes, it was absolutely impossible.

"Husband, I'll go with you. Mu Zhixi's face was calm, and her eyes were full of determination.

Xiao Yiyan did not refuse, and took her into the palace together.

In the carriage, he held Mu Zhixi's hand and comforted her, "It'll be fine." ”

Mu Zhixi nodded, "Mmmm! I believe in my husband." ”

She will not let the queen get her wish.

At the gate of the palace, Mu Zhixi saw a somewhat familiar figure.

The man was dressed in a dark robe, wearing mutton fat and white jade around his waist, and his bearing was extraordinary.
