Chu Li's mood was a little complicated for a moment.

What's the matter?

Why did Mo Rongrui go with him?

Is it difficult to involve Mo Rongrui?

But she recalled it carefully. She really didn't do anything wrong to cause trouble recently.

Is it difficult that someone deliberately planted it?

Thinking like this, Chu Li's heart became more and more frightened.

I just hope I can save the day this time.

Thinking like this, in half an hour, everyone had come to the Phoenix Luan Hall of the queen.

In the flower Hall of fengluan hall, I saw the queen sitting on the throne and drinking tea at the moment.

Murong Rui had never paid attention to the queen, and had never seen her before.

Now after I came in, I directly found a place to sit down, regardless of the Queen's face.

Chu Li watched Mo Rongrui's behavior and couldn't help but pinch a cold sweat for him.

Then she carefully shifted her eyes and secretly observed the Queen's expression.

But the queen just glanced at Mo Rongrui lightly, and then turned back to her sight. Her mood didn't fluctuate. She looked strange. She seemed to be used to Mo Rongrui's behavior.

Murong Rui's weird temperament is really more than just talking.

Just as Chu Li sighed in his heart, he only heard father-in-law Zeng's voice ring out: "please see the empress, empress Wanfu Jinan -"

As he spoke, he knelt on the ground.

Just before Chu Li fully recovered, she just felt that she was suddenly pressed, so she knelt down on the ground with a "puff". Fortunately, the floor was wooden, and she didn't hurt very much.

Mo Rongrui, who was sitting on one side, saw it, and his eyes were a little dark.

The queen said, "get up."

"Yes." Grandpa Zeng answered, then stood up, walked to the queen and stood still.

On both sides, palace people stood up.

Chu Li saw this and subconsciously stood up.

But before his legs moved, he suddenly heard father-in-law Zeng yell, "presumptuous!"

Chu Li was frightened by his reprimand. She looked at father-in-law Zeng with a silly face for a moment.

At this time, father-in-law Zeng continued to say, "as a person who makes mistakes, you don't know the etiquette! Who allowed you to get up?!"

Chu Li was scolded in a trance. It was easy to get back to his mind, and then silently took back his legs.

Although she does have sharp teeth and sharp mouth on weekdays, she is sometimes very shameless.

But now in this situation, she is still honest.

Murong Rui looked at Chu Li's wronged and obedient appearance, and couldn't help laughing in his heart.

I didn't expect her to have such a time.

However, father-in-law Zeng returned to his master. He really had a backer and spoke in a different tone.

The queen opened her mouth and said, "little ion, do you know what the palace called you?"

Chu Li hung his head and his voice was innocent: "if you go back to the queen, I don't know."

"Don't know?" the queen raised her voice, and her tone felt very fresh.

After a pause, she only heard her speak again and said, "in that case, Xiao Zengzi, tell him what mistake he made."

After receiving the order, father-in-law Zeng immediately said "yes", then looked at Chu Li, who was kneeling on the ground, raised his voice and said, "yesterday, the slave got the news that someone set fire in the imperial garden. Although the fire was not very big, arson in the palace was a felony. The palace regulations also banned the palace female eunuchs from lighting anything except candles without permission."

After a pause, father-in-law Zeng said again, "and after being informed by insiders, it was you who set fire in the imperial garden last night."

Arson?

Is it the "surprise" yesterday?

She was a little silly for a while.

No, it's not allowed to burn things in the palace? Isn't it only forbidden to burn paper money?

But... Even if you can't set fire without permission, she has permission!

Thinking like this, she subconsciously looked up at Mo Rongrui.

When Mo Rongrui saw the moment Chu Li looked at him, he was in a rare moment of relief.

Now we all know that we are in trouble to help ourselves, which is a good change.

After seeing Murong Rui, he took back his sight, as if he hadn't seen her at all, and didn't speak for a long time.

Chu Li's heart cooled when he saw Mo Rongrui's expression and action.

What does he mean?

It's reasonable to say that even if he doesn't help her solve the trouble, Mo Rongrui asked him to do it yesterday. In fact, he just told the truth and made evidence. How come he didn't even talk to her this time?

Did you offend him last night?

Thinking like this, Chu Li lost his mind again.

The empress saw that Chu Li didn't speak for a long time, and a touch of displeasure flashed in her eyes.

Then she only listened to some light words in a bad tone and said, "little ion, do you have anything to say now? Did you do this thing?"

Hearing the speech, Chu Li suddenly recovered. She replied, "if you go back to the queen, the fire last night was really set by slaves."

The Queen's eyes sank when she heard the speech.

She didn't expect the little ion to admit it so soon.

She slowly took her sight back from Chu Li, and then picked up the tea on the table beside her again. While gently brushing off the tea foam, she slowly opened her mouth and said, "since that's the case, the palace will punish you less for your good attitude of admitting your mistake."

But I didn't expect that the next second, Chu Li opened his mouth again and said, "but the queen, the palace rules stipulate that the slaves can't ignite without permission, but the slaves ignited last night with permission."

Hearing the speech, the Queen's eyes sank.

She knew it was not so easy to solve.

She took a sip of tea, then opened her mouth and said, "then tell us about it. Who allowed you to light a fire in the night of the palace?"

Chu Li's eyes were dark.

That man is far away and near!

She secretly raised her eyes to Murong Rui, but she saw that Murong Rui was still indifferent to herself.

The Lord didn't mean that, and she didn't dare to speak!

What if murongrui denies it? This will not only wash away his grievances, but also offend murongrui.

Just as Chu Li was entangled, at this time, only a voice sounded outside the door: "it is allowed by the king!"

As soon as he said this, everyone turned and looked out the door to see the source of the voice.
