Silly King's Favorite

Chapter 125: The Turn of the Wind (4)
A clever court lady—the one who brought out the ginseng soup for Ji Youran at the beginning—raised her head quickly and repeated Princess Yude's words.

Hearing her say that, the others followed suit and said the same thing several times.

Princess Pinggu also interjected at this time: "Father, Yude has been playing with her children all the time. She is very timid. How could she attack the second brother and the others? The nonsense of the second brother and the others is too much. It's a little off."

"Pinggu, your father is asking, why are you interrupting?" The queen quickly scolded her, and Princess Pinggu bowed her head in displeasure.

Her words actually expressed the emperor's heartfelt words.The emperor's eyes gradually became suspicious: "Prince Yi, Princess Yi, you say that Yude wants to harm you, do you have evidence?"

Ji Youran felt cold, and exchanged a look with Feng Yuming.Feng Yuming shook his head: "The evidence is my son and concubine Ai!"

The emperor scolded lightly: "What about the other witnesses? What about the physical evidence?"

"Other witnesses... them!" Feng Yuming quickly pointed to the kneeling Princess Yude's court ladies and eunuchs.

The emperor's eyes turned cold, and Princess Yude was obviously relieved.

However, at this moment, Ji Youran said indifferently: "Father, my son here has a dagger, which was snatched from that actor just now. And this dagger was given to him by Yude. If the dagger If you leave it to someone to check the fingerprints, you should be able to check Yude's fingerprints, right?" As he spoke, he pulled out the dagger he had received from his sleeve.

Princess Yude immediately turned pale. "This... this doesn't mean anything! We were just circling around, maybe I accidentally touched the dagger?"

"However, if the handle and scabbard of the dagger are covered with your fingerprints, it means that you have touched this dagger many times, right?" Ji Youran smiled lightly, "and", gently pulled out the dagger Sheathed, "Maybe, even the blade has your finger marks on it!"

Then he took the knife back and put it forward with both hands: "I implore my father to order someone to check the finger marks on the spot, and return my son and the prince's innocence!"

Princess Yude obviously forgot about this.After all, she was only a child, and the blood on her face faded immediately, but she still argued forcefully: "Father, don't listen to her nonsense! My son... Even if there are son's finger marks on the blade, it is possible that my son I accidentally touched it!"

Don't listen to her weak sophistry, just look at her eyes to know that she has confessed.The emperor shook his head: "Princess Yude, you are so brave!"

Princess Yude was startled, and immediately knew that she could not escape this time.However, still holding on to the last sliver of hope, she raised her head and looked around. After her eyes stayed on the prince for a while, she rushed up suddenly: "Queen mother, please save the son! Although the son did not kill the prince, Brother Huang, at least I led them into the cave! They are really too cunning, I can't beat them!"

The queen's face immediately changed: "What are you talking about? I don't understand! It's none of my business!"

Princess Yude tugged on her sleeve tightly. "Mother, you can't do this, you can't abandon Erchen! It's you who said that if the matter is settled, you must not let Erchen go to marry. Now that Erchen is messed up, you can't let Erchen go and get married. Is it okay for the son to go and get married?"

"What's the matter of getting married or not? If you want to get married, you have to go Pinggu, why is it your turn?" The queen yelled, seeing that she couldn't get rid of her, she hurriedly called the left and right to help.

Princess Yude was dragged down, and burst into tears immediately: "Sister Pinggu, you can also say a few words for my sister! My sister promised to accompany you to make a wedding, okay?"

After a while, his face turned pale. "What does this have to do with me? I don't know anything about it, Yude, don't drag me into the water!"

Upon hearing this, Princess Yude covered her face and wept again.

However, when she was hiding her face, she glanced at the prince several times through her fingers.

Ji Youran followed suit, and happened to meet the prince's eyes.There was a little panic in the eyes of the prince, but he immediately calmed down, and took a few shots: "Good you Yude, you actually want to murder your emperor's brother and sister-in-law, and want to wrong your mother, queen and sister? Come on!" , Hurry up and take her down!"

However, the words were spoken, but no one moved.

Everyone looked at the emperor one after another, and saw that his face was ashen, his eyes glanced at the queen and princess Pinggu a few times, and his right hand gently stroked the tiger's mouth of his left.This is how he behaved when he was angry, and Ji Youran remembered it clearly.In her previous life, when she was caught for 'murder', the emperor also made such a move.

Seeing his eyes, the queen and Pinggu's heart shrank suddenly, knowing that he suspected them.Immediately he was so wronged that he wanted to appeal, but he felt that it was a bit sophistry to say it now.But if you don't say it, is it going to be the default?Especially Pinggu, she was talking for Yude just now, doesn't it mean that she and she are in the same group?Comparing the two, I really don't know what to do. Both of them feel like ants in a hot pot.

Fortunately, the prince came over at this time: "Your Majesty, the maids of Prince Yi and Concubine Yi have been found, and the maids in the queen mother's bedroom are also here."

"Call them here quickly!" The emperor's attention was finally diverted, and the queen and Pinggu breathed a sigh of relief.

So Caiping and others, Shi Shiran, came forward, and after bowing down one by one, the emperor asked, "Why don't you serve King Yi and Princess Yi?"

"Back to the emperor, the servants and servants were originally serving the prince and concubine. However, suddenly a lady-in-law came over and said that the queen mother ordered to cook a bowl of ginseng soup for the concubine, because the people in the small kitchen didn't know the taste of the concubine, so they put the servant Pull him to ask questions. The slaves can't resist, so I had to follow." Caiping replied respectfully with her head bowed.

The little stone who followed Feng Yuming also said: "A eunuch said that the queen mother has recently collected a lot of interesting things, which are specially reserved for the prince! So he asked the little one to follow him to get them, and the little one went. But after the last look, it was nothing more than They are common things, the prince already has them! But when the little one goes back, the prince and concubine have long since disappeared.”

As for the people who the queen mother stayed there, they all had a saying that they had to leave.

And asked someone to pull the court lady and eunuch next to Yude to identify them, and everyone found the person who led them away at a glance, and their tone was very sure.

Until then, the truth is revealed.Everything points to Princess Yude who is trembling aside.

The emperor immediately trembled with anger: "Yude! Who gave you such boldness?"

Princess Yude trembled, and finally looked up at the prince: "Brother prince, save me."

The prince got up immediately, and said indignantly: "Father, I didn't expect this girl to be so cruel. She dragged the queen and Pinggu into the water, and now even the son is unwilling to let him go. The son is really ashamed to be a brother. Now, the matter If this happens, I'm afraid it won't end well. The emperor's grandmother is also tired, and the officials will go to the palace to congratulate him at night. It's not appropriate to make a big fuss now. I also ask my father to imprison Yude first, and then bring it up after tonight Take a good trial to find out who is behind her back! Even her court ladies and eunuchs must not be let go. This is a serious matter, we must investigate and find out, and the innocent will be innocent!"
