Chapter 53 She's Interesting

Lin Yiman finally realized that the line of sight oppressing her was no longer there, and her hanging heart fell slightly.

She felt right!

Chu Yu's eyes fell on Su Youning as she entered the palace, he was very surprised.

It is true to say that Su Youning is timid, she is afraid of death and pain, she even knelt down in front of Chu Yu at the slightest disagreement, pretending to be obedient and submissive!
To say that Su Youning is bold is even more true. She dared to play tricks in front of Empress Lu, but now something happened in the palace, but there was no trace of panic on her face, but a calm and composed expression.

Looking at Su Youning who was saluting, Chu Yu couldn't help showing an unpredictable smile.

In the past, I only thought that this woman was an actor who was used to acting, but now it seems that she is quite interesting!
It was the first time for the emperor to see Su Youning, and seeing that she was well-mannered and behaved without any timidity, he couldn't help but feel a little more satisfied with her.

Raising his hand lightly, a majestic voice sounded above the hall.

"Excuse me, Princess Yu, get up and answer!"

This sentence made the people in the hall clearly distinguish again that the emperor prefers Chu Yu, and even women with Chu Yu will be given special treatment.

Concubine Yu, who has been accused of doing something wrong, should have questioned her immediately, but the emperor's attitude is soft, it seems that this matter is a big deal!
Su Youning still lowered her eyes slightly, and replied calmly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Empress Lu gritted her teeth. She knew that the emperor would not easily question the crime, but she did not expect the emperor to have such a soft attitude. This also shows that this matter will be resolved with the emperor, but she is really not reconciled!
The emperor looked at Su Youning who was wearing palace attire in the main hall, with slightly lowered eyes, unable to see his face clearly, and asked aloud.

"Princess Yu, the lady from the Lin family next to you said that you tore her dress in the side hall, is there such a thing?"

Before Su Youning could speak, the emperor added another sentence.

"You raise your head and answer!"

Su Youning pursed her lips slightly and responded.

"Yes."

In the next second, Su Youning raised his eyes, and his unparalleled beauty was revealed in front of everyone.

Chu Wen was the first to be attracted to him. He really felt that Su Youning was very beautiful. There are many beautiful women in Beijing, but there are not many women as beautiful as Su Youning with a hint of tenacity and intelligence.

Seeing Su Youning again, Shen Moli felt rippling in his heart. If it wasn't in this hall, he really wanted to go over and ask Su Youning: How are you doing in Prince Yu's Mansion?
"If you go back to the emperor, You Ning has never done anything to tear her dress, please ask the emperor and empress to check it out!"

Su Youning said every word clearly and firmly, Lin Yiman began to panic.

Only Su Youning and Lu Pingting have touched the hem of this skirt, she has already offended Prince Yu's mansion and said Su Youning's name, if it wasn't for Su Youning's doing, would it be possible to say Lu Pingting's name too?
Lin Yiman was in great pain, but right now she could only bear it to the end, otherwise she would be charged with framing her once she changed her mind.

"Your Majesty, empress, Princess Yu is the only one in the palace who has touched the hem of a courtier's skirt. All the servants in the palace can testify about this matter, and the courtiers dare not lie!"

The emperor frowned and asked.

"Princess Yu, is what Miss Lin said is true?"

Su Youning pursed her lips. In the side hall, she had been helping the ladies on stage to arrange their dresses and hairpins, and she did hear Lin Yiman's words that she would not let anyone touch her dresses.

"You Ning dare not speak nonsense. You Ning is responsible for the performances of the young ladies at the Qianqiu Banquet. The affairs are complicated. You Ning helped Miss Lin's dress twist twice."

Empress Lu suddenly coughed a few times, and spoke softly with a look of weakness.

"Anyone who has done something wrong should admit it boldly. The emperor has always been lenient, and I don't want to pursue it too much. However, if someone has done something wrong and refuses to admit it, it will be punished after being found out."

The emperor nodded.

"What the queen said is very true, Princess Yu, is it true that you didn't do this?"

Su Youning caught a glimpse of the slit in Lin Yiman's skirt very neatly, as if it had been cut a little beforehand, and it just extended to the place where she twisted the needle.

This time, she didn't say that she was innocent, but took a bold step forward and said respectfully.

"Your Majesty, You Ning has something to ask Miss Lin."

The emperor was slightly taken aback and then nodded.

Su Youning turned to face Lin Yiman, looking down at her, a moderate voice sounded.

"Miss Lin, you said I cut your skirt?"

Lin Yiman didn't understand, and just nodded subconsciously.

Su Youning continued to ask.

"Do you know where the hem of your skirt is torn?"

Lin Yiman still frowned, and looked back at the hem of the skirt that fell on the ground.

"Of course I know, isn't it where you dropped the needle!"

Su Youning nodded.

"At that time, the needlework was given to me by the maid of the side palace. You can also see that it is just an ordinary embroidery needle, and your dress is made of brocade. You can imagine the embroidery needle and brocade, but it is impossible to draw it out." Such a neat mouth."

As soon as the words fell, the emperor immediately turned to look at Aunt Jinxi beside him.

Aunt Jinxi has been with the emperor for more than ten years, so she naturally knew what the emperor wanted, so she walked up quickly, checked Lin Yiman's skirt, and then replied respectfully.

"Returning to the emperor, the tear in the hem of Miss Lin's skirt is indeed neat. Not to mention the embroidery needle, even the knife will take some time, and there are traces of scissors at the end of the tear."

This is obvious enough.

Lin Yiman bit her lip, if it was proven that Su Youning did not do it at this moment, then she would be guilty of a great crime, she could not let go.

"Perhaps she hid it in her cuff early in the morning. There are indeed traces of scissors on the hem of the minister's daughter's skirt. The minister's daughter is wronged!"

Lin Yiman is indeed very wronged, and she still hasn't figured out who caused her harm!
Su Youning sighed slightly, and looked sideways at Lin Yiman whose face had been smeared with tears, she couldn't see the coffin without crying!
"Your Majesty, Empress, You Ning didn't hide anything in his wide sleeves. Someone can testify for You Ning!"

The emperor looked surprised.

"Oh!?"

"Who can testify?"

Su Youning replied respectfully.

"Before paying homage to the empress dowager, You Ning gave the empress dowager an injection in the garden of the central hall. You Ning hid a medical bag in the wide sleeve of his right hand. Nurse Xia next to the empress dowager can testify for you."

"Coincidentally, You Ning was also accidentally injured in the garden. The imperial physician once took You Ning's pulse. The hand that felt the pulse was his left hand. Nothing was hidden in the wide sleeve. The imperial physician of the Imperial Hospital can testify for You Ning."

"From the garden to paying homage to the empress, and then to the main hall to attend the palace banquet, You Ning walked with His Royal Highness Yu Wang all the way, and His Highness can testify for You Ning!"

One by one was very clear, without any mistakes or omissions, Chu Yu raised his eyebrows slightly when she mentioned himself.

Empress Lu's hand holding the handkerchief tightened suddenly, and the maid indeed came to report that Su Youning and the Queen Mother seemed to have a good relationship, but unexpectedly, Su Youning actually performed the acupuncture for the Queen Mother!
The emperor did not interrupt Su Youning's words, but only asked after she finished speaking.

"Why did you give the empress dowager the needle?"

Su Youning was taken aback, she seemed to have said something that shouldn't be mentioned.

At first she didn't understand why the Empress Dowager didn't disturb the Emperor and Empress when she had a sudden heart attack. When Nanny Xia helped the Empress Dowager to go back to rest, the Empress Dowager specially ordered that she likes to be pure and doesn't want to be disturbed by others.

That's why everyone present kept silent about this matter, but now Su Youning had to say it.

"It was the Empress Dowager who had a sudden heart attack in the garden."
