After being beaten to death with random sticks: my brothers begged me to forgive me

Chapter 17 The Holy Family
Jiang Muge stepped forward side by side with Han Momo and Han Zhenlian.As it got closer, it was the first time in this life that she could truly see Tianyan.

Through Yuzao, the emperor's face was vaguely gentle.

It's not that being a real dragon emperor is special compared to others.But in that gentle face, there was a sharp temperament hidden.Sitting there, his posture is also different from that of ordinary people, and he is not angry and majestic.

Today, there is no beard, and the temples are like cut, and the four characters of bookishness and decisiveness between the eyebrows are subtly integrated.

Seeing her looking over with curiosity, he even narrowed his eyes and smiled at her.

The smile was very shallow, and it disappeared from the corner of his lips as soon as he opened his mouth: "First, present Han Aiqing's calligraphy."

Han Zhenlian bowed and handed over the circular painting, and the four servants held it high above their heads, and unfolded it in front of all the guests.

The vacant space in the center is for Guqin, but Han Momo's work, which seems to be forced out, is round on the outside and square on the inside, which coincides with a wonderful artistic aesthetic.In addition, Han Zhenlian's pen and ink, even after a struggle with Jiang Muge, is still exquisite in composition.

Mountains, waters, rivers, and freehand brushstrokes not only make people feel spring, but also add a chic and free spirit.

Just add a few strokes, it is conceivable that it is another treasure that will soon make Han Zhenlian famous.

Everyone was amazed and picky like Ye Zhonghan, and they didn't say anything wrong.

At the moment, only the emperor paused for a while, and suddenly pointed to a flowing ink mark on it and said: "I don't know which girl's footprint left the ink treasure? I only like this one."

Han Momo couldn't help but clenched her cuffs tightly.

Han Zhenlian's smile froze for a moment, he cupped his hands and said, "Return to Your Majesty, yes, yes..."

"Minnv is the daughter of the Jiang family, Muge," Jiang Muge whispered, "Compared to Mr. Han, she is not worth mentioning. Your Majesty praised her."

Although her voice is low, she speaks clearly and with a standard accent.The wording is also very elegant.

The emperor paused, and couldn't help laughing: "Master Han and the girl from the Han family took the trouble to find such a beautiful and sensible little dancer in the capital in order to present paintings to me on the pretext of the spring banquet? You come to me Come."

Now, not only Jiang Muge was stunned, but even Han Zhenlian was so frightened that he immediately stepped forward: "Your Majesty, Muge is my sister."

"Huh?" The emperor looked at Jiang Muge.

Her eyes were slightly red, she shook her head and said, "No, no."

The crimson skirt under the ground was still trembling, but when she spoke of denying the emperor's favorite minister, she was more determined than anyone else.

People can't help but wonder.

The eyes of Ye Wenkang and Ye Zhonghan sitting next to her were only now on her, gradually recognizing her.

The two couldn't help looking at Ye Chenyue at the same time.He never said at the time that Jiang Muge had a complicated background.

Seeing that Jiang Muge had no choice but to come forward step by step, Ye Chenyue did not try to stop her.

He just got up from a distance and looked at her from the side.

It's nothing unusual, the imperial decree cannot be disobeyed, and no one is afraid of Tianwei.Ye Wenkang didn't dare to say too much.

But as she approached, the faint scent of honeysuckle flowers gradually invaded her body.Ye Wenkang smelled it, and looked at her soft and delicate skin wrapped in that dance gown, and couldn't help being dazed.

Should I say it or not, the person Ye Chenyue falls in love with is indeed extraordinary.

On weekdays, she has superb medical skills and is as indifferent as snow, but today she went on stage and changed into red makeup, and she still has the ability to amaze everyone.

The emperor stretched out his hand towards her, Jiang Muge looked down, but saw the emerald finger on the palm of that hand shining brightly.

She seemed to have no other choice.

At this moment, Han Momo finally couldn't bear it anymore, stood up and knelt down to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, although I don't know why, I don't want you to be deceived. Mu Ge refused to admit it. My father was unable to attend today due to business, but The Han family is always hers. I hope that Your Majesty...before rewarding her, ask carefully if Mu Ge was the adopted daughter of the Han family. Did she appear at the spring feast with our help. "

"Is she the adopted daughter of the family?" The emperor frowned and motioned Han Momo to stand up, "What's going on?"

Han Zhenlian glanced at Han Momo in shock, but she continued without blushing and heartbeat: "The pastoral song grew up in the countryside. When I was young, my parents saw her begging on the street, and they were very pitiful, so they adopted her and raised her carefully for three years." Years. She never expected to see Tianyan one day, but she wanted to separate herself from the Han family."

The emperor looked at Jiang Muge sternly: "Is this true?"

"No," Jiang Muge shook his head, but nodded again: "I did stay in Xiangfu for three years, but I was..."

She stretched out her fingertips, covering it with her body, and wrote two words on the emperor's palm almost without a trace.

We all know that her voice is low, and Han Momo couldn't hear what she said to the emperor, so he continued: "Your Majesty, my servant has witnesses."

"What evidence?"

"Because of Jiang Muge's low status, in the past three years, he has never appeared at any banquet. But all the slaves of the Han family know that Jiang Muge is the adopted daughter of my mother, and everything I said is true."

The emperor smiled and shook his head: "Miss Han, the Ministry of Criminal Justice handles the case, and even domestic slaves are not considered witnesses."

"It's not just these witnesses." Seeing the emperor's relaxed attitude, Han Momo suddenly became somewhat confident, "Today's spring banquet, all the ladies and ladies are witnesses. Besides, if the Han family hadn't received the invitation letter, how could Jiang Muge be qualified to come and perform? ?”

The Liu family has agreed with her, and Han Momo's bet today is that Jiang Muge dare not tell the truth about her relationship with King Yong.

And indeed it is.The emperor's bottomless eyes fell on Jiang Muge, but she still didn't say a word.

The emperor's tone changed immediately: "Why don't you recognize the Han family?"

Han Momo's heart immediately rose to her throat.

She didn't expect the emperor to ask such detailed questions, and she was afraid that she would deny it, so she insisted on dragging everyone to break things up like yesterday, and shake them all out.

Even if Jiang Muge has no evidence for the time being, her blood relationship itself is the biggest evidence.

If she insisted on meeting the emperor to return her status in the Han family and return to the Han family, then Han Momo would have no choice.

Right now, everyone's eyes are on Jiang Muge's slender neck.

If one is not good, she has committed the great crime of deceiving the emperor.

Of course, even if it was agreed, it would be absolutely impossible to regain the Emperor's favor even if things got to this point.

"Your Majesty," Jiang Muge knelt down slowly, "It's not a good hobby for women to dance. They haven't attended banquets for three years, and they don't want to embarrass the Han family."

Suddenly, Han Zhenlian strode forward and said: "There is nothing shameful. Your Majesty, the family is really sorry for Muge. They have never taken her to any banquets and always said that she is not good for the stage. But Muge has never done anything wrong. I dare not admit it just now. I'm afraid too. If Your Majesty wants to punish the crime, please punish the minister."

He knelt down with a "plop", and the emperor personally exempted him from the etiquette in the past, but now he has violated it.

Seeing the Han family members kneeling in front of them one by one, the emperor gradually looked bad.

Han Zhenlian looked at the emperor firmly.

For the sake of the Han family's reputation, Jiang Muge just admitted the fact that she is an adopted daughter.Compared with her general knowledge, Han Momo's behavior is simply despised by him.He can no longer violate his own heart.

At this point, he can't expose Han Momo, so he can only try his best to protect Jiang Muge.
