Lord Lan

Chapter 156 The Dead Rest in Peace (1)
Qin Lian'er was stunned for a moment and panicked, but Nangong Xue secretly pinched her palm, she immediately understood, bowed her head and cried: "I, I... Your Majesty, although my father is only a minister, Lian'er knows that he is inferior, But seeing Nangong sister being bullied to this point by the princess, Lian'er would rather risk the crime of 'disrespect' and seek justice for Nangong sister."

"Hoo," Nangongxue cried properly, "Your Highness, Sister Lian'er is just worried about Xiaoxue." She bit her lips tightly, her ten fingers clutching her cuffs were snow-white, and urged Qin Lian'er to leave quickly, don't be angry because of her implicated.

Su Julan couldn't help but applaud and applaud such two women who are so affectionate and can share the same hatred. , all ironic.

Nangongxue covered her face with her sleeves, lowered her face to hide the ecstatic thoughts in her heart.But Qin Lian'er didn't hide it as well as her, and the eyes that squinted at Su Julan were full of success.

The sharp-eyed King Su raised his eyebrows when he saw it, and immediately started pouring wine with the jug, expressing that he would no longer take this matter into his eyes.Among those who watched the play, some people knew it well, such as Ao Jun Shang, Duan Empress, Jin Concubine, etc., as well as Ying Zun Wang, and Ying Si with a lazy smile on his lips.

Su Julan turned around leisurely, looked down at the two kneeling people with a smile on her face: "However, Miss Nangong and Miss Qin have finished talking? After that, it's my turn to talk. Miss Nangong kept saying yes This seat pushes you into the water, what evidence do you have?"

After wiping away her tears, Nangongxue raised her head and said resolutely, "Qiao Er is the witness!"

"Yes, my servant saw it with my own eyes." Lu Qiao shouted in response: "My servant saw with my own eyes that the Princess grabbed my young lady by the neck and kicked her into the water, and the Princess also slapped the servant twice and pushed the servant down as well. Water. Here, the slave girl's face is still hurting..."

Lu Qiao raised her face so that the fingerprints on both sides of her cheeks could be seen at the most obvious angle, and someone stood up immediately and said, "There are really fingerprints?! Princess, I never thought you would be so vicious, and you still refuse to let the old minister's daughter go!"

Su Julan sneered slightly: "Master Commander, you said that the person who was pushed into the water by me was your daughter, and it was your lowly maidservant who testified that I was murdered, and you immediately decided that I was guilty before I finished my question." This... really worries me, but you are the imperial commander, a high-ranking court minister, and you don't even understand the basics of 'seeking proof and avoiding suspicion'? Haha, this is the way to be an official..." Su Julan then Laughed but said nothing.

The imperial commander's face turned purple immediately, and he couldn't refute for a while.

But there was another one who stood up and retorted in unison with him: "Master Nangong dares to say this, is it because the princess has too many criminal records? The princess dared to seriously injure Xue'er in broad daylight half a year ago. If the Seventh Prince hadn't rescued her I'm afraid Mr. Nangong has already sent a white-haired person to a black-haired person, and now it makes sense to secretly assassinate! Your lord!" The man lifted his robe and knelt down, "Su Julan has evil intentions, I beg you to punish her severely and deprive her of the title of princess. Rehabilitate Miss Nangong, otherwise it will be difficult to quell public anger."

"Public anger?" King Su suddenly sneered, "Where did you say public anger came from?"

This person gave a few glances to his side. Seven or eight people, including Nangongxue's father, knelt down at the same time: "I beseech you to be the master!" Some even tried to encourage King Ying Zun who was opposed to King Su.

King Ying Zun's wide sleeves were pulled lightly at once, and out of the corner of his eyes, he looked at his beloved only son, with gloom congealed between his brows.

Ying Si smiled brightly.

Ying Zun Wang Lianrong hummed in a low voice: "You can provoke anyone you want, but the Su family is an exception, especially this Su Julan!"

Ying Si puffed up his right cheek, but still secretly grabbed King Ying Zun's cuff, "Father, I can't make a daughter-in-law even if I want to?"

King Ying Zun narrowed his narrow eyes to him immediately, "Are you messing around with this kind of thing?!" Seeing Ying Si's reluctance, the gloom between his brows deepened, but he didn't make a sound to participate in the crusade against the courtiers kneeling on the ground.

Aojun narrowed his eyes dangerously, his gaze swiveled between King Su and Su Julan.

It is impossible for the Su family to return to his camp now, and it would be best to take the opportunity to get rid of it, but the time is not right now, Su Wang is watching the changes quietly, Su Julan remains silent, it is obvious that he treats these people as clowns , Doesn't this show that there is a bargaining chip for a safe escape?The dissolution of the engagement half a year ago has already wiped out the little friendship between him and the Su family. If the Su family is not completely defeated at this moment, it will only cause tension in the future, and the power in King Su's hands will definitely endanger his royal power. !
The proud monarch looked at the eight courtiers kneeling in front of him. They were all incompetent people who had not made any achievements during their official career. After thinking about it for a while, he decided to abandon these stupid courtiers: "The matter has not been clarified yet. How can you just cry and grab the ground?"

After being drunk by the proud monarch, some people were immediately dumbfounded.

Seeing it, the proud monarch became more and more contemptuous. If it was really mud that could not support the wall, it would be better if he abandoned it, and he would be able to promote more useful people who were loyal to him.

Lord Aojun looked at Nangongxue: "Su Julan is right, you need to provide evidence to avoid suspicion. This maidservant is yours, so of course she has her heart towards you. Su Julan, if you continue to talk, whoever disrupts it for no reason will be punished!"

The crying people dared not speak out at once, and some people tried to show their loyalty with a deadly remonstrance, and opened their mouths to shout a few words, and were immediately dragged to the prison for punishment.

A palace banquet instantly turned into a trial.

Su Julan looked at Nangongxue and the others sarcastically, bowed to the arrogant monarch, and said slowly: "Thank you, Your Majesty." She straightened her body, and she sneered slightly: "I didn't hear Miss Nangong's crying just now. Clearly, why don’t I dictate it again, and if there is anything wrong, please point it out immediately—Miss Nangong said that she and her maid were enjoying the scenery on the shore, but it was I who took the initiative to make things difficult for her. First pushed Nangongxue down the lake to murder her, then slapped the maidservant Lu Qiao, and pushed her down the river bank to kill her. If Su Yin hadn't arrived in time, they would have died in my hands, and Miss Nangong's body The scars are also the means by which I want to destroy her reputation, right?"

As if the matter had nothing to do with her, Su Julan recounted all Nangong Xue's unfavorable words to her clearly.Although Nangongxue didn't understand her move, she gritted her teeth and nodded, which would definitely ruin Su Julan.

Now that Nangongxue nodded, it would be easier to handle the matter.Moreover, after listening to her words, a lowly servant girl couldn't restrain the joy on her face, and Su Julan's smile became more calm: "Then I have a few questions, and I will ask you first."

Su Julan approached Lu Qiao's side and quickly reached out to grab her chin. Someone immediately shouted, "Su Julan, you actually want to kill people in public?"

Su Julan squinted at the man, and said with a sneer: "It is true that those who are close to vermilion are red, and those who are close to ink are black. Even the emperor's order to keep silent is repeatedly disobeyed. No wonder even a lowly maid can be domineering and insult me ​​that day!"
