Noble First Daughter-in-law

Chapter 965 "False Talk"

Chapter 965 "False Talk"

Feeling that the fingers rubbing his temples were a little stiff, Yu Wenyuan said calmly: "Don't worry, I told you to 'talk nonsense', so naturally I won't blame you. You can say whatever comes to mind, no need to worry."

Tao Wan chanted: "Yes."

Although Yu Wenyuan said "no need to worry", she also understood that it was impossible to speak in front of the emperor without any worries, so she lowered her head and thought for a moment, and then said softly but solemnly: "I still don't believe that Princess Qin will do this." There was a scandal about having an affair with someone.”

Yu Wenyuan still squinted his eyes: "Why?"

"With her personality."

"You haven't been in the palace for a long time, and you haven't known her for a long time."

"Yes, I got acquainted with Princess Qin a few days ago after asking her for advice on how to make soup. Before that, I had only seen Princess Qin a few times at several New Year's Eve banquets."

"Then how do you know who she is?"

"A person's character is not judged by what she says, but by what she does, because words can be lied, but doing things is difficult, and even if you can lie for a while, you can't pretend for a lifetime."

Yu Wenyuan said: "Continue."

Tao Wanyin said: "Although I have not been in the palace for a long time, I actually heard about Princess Qin's deeds very early, especially the battle of Fufeng."

Mentioning this, Yu Wenyuan's eyebrows raised slightly.

Tao Wanyin continued: "As a woman, and also the young lady of the Duke's palace, who was a noble man at that time, she could follow her husband into battle to kill the enemy and sacrifice her life. Her ambition is commendable, and her love is even more commendable. Such a person who can fight with How can a woman who lives and dies with her husband have an affair?”

"..."

"What's more, you are having an affair with a man you have only met a few times, and you may not be familiar with him at all, and you are having an affair in a tightly guarded place like the inner courtyard of the palace."

"..."

"Princess Qin's ability to follow King Qin into battle to kill the enemy shows the deep love between husband and wife; her ability to use tactics on the battlefield shows her careful thinking. Judging from these two points, she should not do such outrageous scandals."

As she spoke, she carefully lowered her head to look at Yu Wenyuan, only to see that he was still squinting his eyes. Although he was noncommittal about what she said, judging from his gradually unfurling eyebrows, he seemed to agree with what she said.

But the next moment, Yu Wenyuan said again: "But, that Sun Jianyue does look a bit like Chu Yang, and she and Chu Yang -"

Tao Wanyin lowered his eyelids: "I don't know about Emperor Yang's affairs."

Yu Wenyuan was silent for a while, and finally opened his eyes, and said with a bit of solemnity: "When I was in Yanmen County, I heard that Chu Yang had a very special attitude towards her, and even in front of everyone—— "At this point, he paused, cut off the rest of the words, and then said: "Moreover, when Chu Yang went to Jiangdu, he even kidnapped her and took her with him. "

Tao Wanyin opened his eyes wide: "Didn't Princess Qin go to Jiangdu by herself?"

Yu Wenyuan looked back at her: "You know?"

Tao Wanyin said: "I also went to the Dayan Temple Dharma Assembly. Although I wasn't listening to the sutras in front of the Main Hall, I was still in the temple, so I heard what Princess Qin said at that time."

Yu Wenyuan nodded, but then sneered: "They think they can hide some things from me."

"..."

"It's just that I don't care about them."

Hearing this, Tao Wanyin felt cold sweat on his palms, but he did not dare to show any expression on his face. He only said softly: "As the emperor, the emperor naturally knows what should be tightened and what should be relaxed; when should things be relaxed? Tight, when to loosen.”

Yu Wenyuan snorted softly and said: "I know what Chu Yang thinks about her. In the past, I only treated it as an emergency, and did not care about extraordinary things with her; besides, she is Feng Chen's Daughter-in-law, Feng Chen doesn’t care about this. As a father-in-law, I naturally won’t interfere in their affairs.”

"..."

"But now, if the matter involves the royal family's face -" His tone became heavy when he mentioned this.

Tao Wanyin thought for a while and suddenly said: "What the emperor just said all the time is that Emperor Yang treats her."

"……Um."

"I heard what the emperor said. In Yanmen County, Emperor Yang had an ambiguous attitude towards Princess Qin. Later when he went to Jiangdu, Emperor Yang also kidnapped Princess Qin. But all of this was what Emperor Yang did to Princess Qin."

"Ah."

"But from the beginning to the end, Princess Qin was a passive recipient and did not do anything out of the ordinary."

"..."

"If Emperor Yang really uses his status as the king of a country to threaten him, then it will be the princess who is aggrieved."

"..."

"It's just this kind of grievance. As a woman, I can't speak out and dare not complain, because speaking out will only make others doubt her innocence, and there is no way to complain."

"..."

Yu Wenyuan fell silent.

Tao Wanyin also became quiet after saying that. Although the movements of his hands continued and he did not dare to stop, Yu Wenyuan still noticed the gentle trembling on his fingertips.

After a long time, Yu Wenyuan slowly turned his head to look at her, and said with a half-smile, "You are really talking nonsense."

Tao Wanyin was so frightened that she hurriedly stood up, walked to him and knelt down in front of him: "I'm talking nonsense, please forgive me, Your Majesty."

Yu Wenyuan looked at her for a while, then suddenly chuckled: "What are you afraid of? I just said that no matter how you 'talk nonsense', I will not blame you. Get up."

Tao Wanyin then stood up, and Yu Wenyuan stretched out his hand to her. She immediately stepped forward to hold Yu Wenyuan's hand, and he pulled him to sit next to her.

Yu Wenyuan looked at her for a while and said, "So, what happened last night, do you think someone framed Princess Qin?"

Tao Wanyin immediately said: "Now, I don't know the whole story, so I really don't dare to lie."

Yu Wenyuan nodded.

Tao Wanyin glanced at him and asked cautiously: "I heard that the emperor imprisoned the dancer Sun Tianyue. I wonder if he has confessed?"

Yu Wenyuan said: "Just now someone from Dali Temple responded. He refused to admit it and only said that he was doing it for——"

At this point, he stopped himself. Tao Wanyin knew that he didn't want to continue talking, so he didn't ask any more questions, and then said softly: "Looking at it, the matter is still in the palace."

"..."

Yu Wenyuan was silent for a while, then let go of her hand and said, "Okay, I still have some things to approve, so you should go back first. I will come to your place for dinner in the evening."

Tao Wanyin immediately stood up and said, "Yes."

She exited the Liangyi Palace, and when she turned around, she saw the palace maid Qiao Shu who had been waiting outside immediately came forward and said cautiously: "Jieyu."

Tao Wanyin smiled reassuringly and said, "Let's go, the emperor will come over for dinner later, so go back early to prepare."

Upon hearing this, Qiaoshu, who was originally worried, immediately beamed with joy, and hurriedly helped her out and walked out. However, when leaving here, Tao Wanyin looked far away at Chengqian Hall, which was blocked by layers of palace walls. One glance, with a solemn expression.

The sneer from Han Yuhui just now made her even more uneasy now.
