Chapter 396 Meeting
When the regent was still King Rui, the eldest son was named the crown prince right after he was born, and the second son was named Changshan county king when he was born, which shows the honor and favor at that time.

Chen Linshen, the king of Changshan County, was very close to his aunt, Mrs. Cui Er, and often went to the Jingguo Mansion, so he had a good relationship with Cui Erye, Cui Yonglang.

But Chen Linyu, the son of King Rui, has been with the regent all year round and rarely walks outside. Therefore, Cui Yonglang was a little apprehensive when facing Chen Linyu.

Seeing Chen Linyu's silence, Cui Yonglang couldn't help sweating, and explained cautiously: "The princess loves Sanniang the most, and Sanniang must be very sad to know that the princess is injured.

"San Niang is young, she must be in a state of confusion right now, I have to go and see her, and ask my son to be perfect."

After hearing these words, Chen Linyu nodded in agreement, and ordered the guards: "Bring Cui Yuanniang and Cui Sanniang over here."

The guards took orders.

Chen Linshen smiled and greeted Cui Yonglang to sit down and drink tea, sharing the cordiality of the past.

After a while, the guards led Cui Hengyue and Cui Sanniang into the hall: "My lord, someone brought it here."

When Cui Sanniang saw her father, she immediately had a backbone and rushed over: "Father, you are finally here, me."

Cui Yonglang stretched out his hand subconsciously, then retracted it, comforting his daughter softly: "Sanniang, don't be afraid, I'm here to pick you up for my father."

"I have seen the prince, the king of the county."

After Cui Hengyue saluted to Chen Linyu's two brothers, he also saluted to Cui Yonglang: "Greetings to Second Uncle."

Her voice drew everyone's attention back.

Chen Linyu stood up and said, "I still have business to deal with, so you can take care of yourself."

After the words fell, he left with the guards.

Chen Linshen took a deep look at Cui Hengyue and left.

When only Cui Yonglang, father, daughter and Cui Hengyue were left in the hall, Cui Yonglang couldn't wait to ask: "What's going on? Who hurt the princess?"

Before Cui Hengyue could answer, Cui Sanniang pointed at Cui Hengyue and said, "She hurt my aunt."

Cui Hengyue's face turned cold: "Third sister, speak carefully."

Cui Sanniang was frightened, but unwilling, she pulled Cui Yonglang's sleeve: "Aye, look at her"

Unexpectedly, Cui Yonglang also reprimanded her with a straight face: "Yuanniang is right, this is not the mansion of the Duke of Yasukuni, but the mansion of the regent prince, we must be cautious in what we say."

Cui Sanniang couldn't get support, she gritted her teeth with hatred, threw off her father's sleeve, and let out a heavy "hum", but didn't continue the topic just now.

Cui Yonglang showed helplessness: "How did the princess get injured?"

Cui Sanniang didn't answer directly, but looked at Cui Hengyue first, and seeing that she didn't speak, she snorted coldly:
"At that time, my aunt wanted to talk to my eldest sister alone, so she went to the private room upstairs. I was looking at jewelry on the first floor, and I didn't know what happened upstairs.

"I didn't know that my aunt was assassinated until I saw the guards rushing up. Madam Xu said that it was the elder sister who stabbed my aunt. That's what I thought."

Seeing Cui Yonglang looking over, his eyes full of suspicion, Cui Hengyue explained: "At that time, the princess and I were the only ones in the room, so Mother Xu misunderstood that I hurt the princess.

"But in fact, someone was ambushing outside and shot the princess with a short arrow through the window. I have already explained to Chen Shizi."

Speaking of this, she paused for a moment, and then said: "However, Chen Shizi didn't believe me, and said that the short arrow came from the army, and it might have been given to me by a member of the Cui clan who served in the army."

"what?"

After hearing Cui Hengyue's words, Cui Yonglang rushed to Cui Hengyue angrily, and growled: "Cui Hengyue, if you want to die, don't drag the second wife into the water, and don't get involved with the Cui family."

Seeing that Cui Yonglang doubted herself, Cui Hengyue became angry: "Second uncle doesn't believe me?"

"At that time, there were only you and the concubine in the room, and what you said was unfounded, how could you make me believe you?" Cui Yonglang said suppressing his anger.

Cui Hengyue also suppressed the anger in her heart, gritted her teeth and said, "At that time, there were only two of us in the room. The princess had an accident, and I was the first person to be suspected. Does Second Uncle think I would do such a stupid thing?"

Cui Yonglang was stunned for a moment, but the next moment, he snorted again: "Where can a wild girl who grew up in a small temple in the mountains be so smart?"

As a real uncle, he not only didn't believe her, but also taunted her unabashedly, the anger in Cui Hengyue's heart could no longer be suppressed, gushing out.

"That's right, I grew up in a small temple in the mountains, but second uncle, don't forget, my surname is also Cui.

"Everything prospers, everyone loses. If I am charged with assassinating the regent princess, Cui will not be able to escape."

Seeing Cui Yonglang's face getting paler and paler, Cui Hengyue felt relieved, and continued: "Besides, the instigator of all this today is Sanniang.

"I have no plans to go out of the residence today in Japan, it was Sanniang who took me out of the residence to go shopping after school, and it was she who took me to Zhumanxuan.

"As soon as I entered Zhumanxuan, I was told that the princess regent was waiting for me. Obviously, this was an agreement between the princess regent and Sanniang, in order to see me.

"If there are ulterior motives, Sanniang is the most suspicious, because she knows that the princess regent will go to Zhumanxuan, and she can make arrangements in advance."

Cui Sanniang rushed over and roared, "What are the arrangements? The Princess Regent is my own aunt, what can I do to her?"

This made sense, Cui Yonglang also stared at Cui Hengyue.

Not to be outdone, Cui Hengyue fought back: "Then I have only met the Princess Regent once, and today is the second time I have met her. I have no grudges or ties with her, so why did I attack her?"

Cui Sanniang was stunned.

That's right, the eldest sister has no grudges against her aunt, so how could she attack her?
but
Cui Yonglang interrupted and said: "It's useless to say more, I don't care what happened at that time, in short, this matter cannot involve the Yasukuni Mansion, nor the Cui family."

"I don't want to either." Cui Hengyue's tone softened a lot.

Cui Yonglang was silent.

His niece has only come back not long ago, and he has never dealt with her before, so he doesn't know her temper. If she gets annoyed, she will definitely pour dirty water on Sanniang, and then implicate the second wife.

The best policy is to stabilize her first.

Cui Yonglang made up his mind, and said to Cui Hengyue and Sanniang: "I believe this matter has nothing to do with you, you wait here, I'll go tell Shizi, and take you back home first."

Hearing this, Cui Sanniang smiled happily: "Okay, I'll wait for father here."

Not long after Cui Yonglang left, Second Madam Cui was taken to the place where Cui Hengyue was by her servants.

"Mother--" Cui Sanniang saw Mrs. Cui Er and threw herself into her arms happily: "Mother-in-law, you are finally here. How is Auntie?"

Before Mrs. Cui Er could answer, Cui Sanniang complained to her: "Auntie, they don't let me see my aunt, she is my own aunt, and they suspect that I will hurt my aunt, it's just too disgusting.

"Elder cousin doesn't believe me either."

When mentioning Prince Rui's son, Cui Sanniang was full of grievances and choked up for a while.

Mrs. Cui Er was also very angry, but when the incident happened suddenly, she could only comfort her daughter first: "Your aunt was injured and unconscious, and your eldest cousin was also impatient, so they lost their sense of control.

"Don't blame them, I will explain clearly to them"
