Chapter 422 Clever and Smart
"Concubine Su Gui, are you perfunctory with a sentence of ignorance?" The empress no longer had a good face.

She guessed that Su Xi knew that she would not be able to get away no matter what, so she made a random talk to prevaricate.

But the emperor saw that scene with his own eyes just now, even if she was talking nonsense, there must have been a thorn in the emperor's heart.

"Well, I don't know," Su Xi said with a calm expression, "I was lured here by a little eunuch just now, and I saw King Mu right away."

"So it's hard to control yourself?" Concubine Ming smiled coldly.

Su Xi responded with disdain and she sneered: "At that time, I heard Mu Wang talking a lot of nonsense. I reckoned that he must have drunk too much, and he was standing beside this clear pool. It would be bad if someone accidentally fell into the pool. .”

At this point, she turned her head and glanced at Ling Yuan beside her: "So I stepped forward to persuade him to leave, and after questioning, I found out that he really drank too much, and I reached out to help him when he was unsteady on his feet. It happened to be seen by everyone who happened to come."

As her words fell, the air suddenly became silent again.

Ling Yuan's eyes froze.

He had hoped that she would not be able to tell clearly, otherwise she would lose that man's favor.

Only when she falls out of favor can he have a chance to win her heart.

He didn't even know that she was so capable of nonsense.

This is not the Xixi he knew.
"In this way, I understand," Concubine Wen raised her voice in a crisp voice, "Mu Wang drank too much, and concubine was concerned about him because she was afraid that he would fall into the pool, so this misunderstanding happened, thanks Otherwise, the Mu Wang might have fallen by now! Those who clamored for an explanation, now they understand clearly?"

She raised her head arrogantly and glanced at the concubines behind her with a gesture of contempt for everything, and finally her eyes fell directly on the queen.

The queen gave her a hard look, and then looked at Ling Yuan pretending to be calm: "Mu Wang is really drinking?"

Ling Yuan lowered his eyes slightly.

If he denies it, it is to admit that he did something extraordinary to Xixi in a very sober state.

This is completely different from what Cong Xixi said.

If Xixi said it, he could still argue that she blamed him, which would not only make her fall out of favor, but also have no effect on him.

But if he said it out of his own mouth, he would be accused of coveting the emperor's woman. Once this crime is carried out, all his previous efforts will be in vain.

The queen mother often warned him not to fall into any trap.

So everything he has done in these years has been done without leaving a trace.

Just like the rebellion in Qianzhou this time.

The adulterer and traitor who was beheaded by the emperor was a puppet he found in advance. Although the emperor also suspected it, he couldn't find any flaws.

Thinking of this, he looked at the queen and raised his forehead slightly: "Well, I drank a lot."

The queen's face suddenly turned pale.

Mu Wang obviously didn't drink, when I saw him early this morning.
But right now, he was also forced by the little fairy's words to bow his head and compromise!
Goblins are amazing!
Not only did he keep his reputation, but he also put on a high hat for himself as a good person, and he also took care of the face of the king of the curtain. Even if it got into the ears of the Queen Mother afterwards, he would only praise her for being clever and smart, so why would he blame her? Her half?

The handkerchief in the queen's hand was crumpled, but she still didn't let go of it.

No one behind the concubine stood up to speak.

The air was instantly as silent as dead ashes.
