Chapter 444 The Emperor is coming

It's a good thing if something happens to the eldest princess!

They can just watch the excitement quietly, why are they so anxious to help the eldest princess?

Concubine Shu was unhappy and impatient, waving her hand and saying, "Okay! I also know that you have good intentions, but you don't need to take care of this matter."

The words just fell.

"Your Majesty has arrived...!!"

A loud and clear voice came from outside the palace gate.

Everyone, including Concubine Shu and the third princess, were surprised.

"It's your Majesty who's actually here?!"

"Quick, pick up the car, pick up the car!"

The already chaotic Chenxing Palace became even more chaotic. Concubine Chen and Concubine Shu also walked down and stood at the front.

The door curtain of Chenxing Palace was opened from the outside, and the emperor walked in with a frown and a stern face, followed by a large group of people.

Ning Muqing had her head lowered when she suddenly felt a cold gaze falling on her.

She calmly raised her head and glanced, and was suddenly shocked.

Chu Lixuan? !

Why is he back?

Before Ning Muqing had time to think too much, everyone saluted and she also bowed her head.

"Get flat." The emperor said calmly.

Concubine Shu stood up, stretched out her hand to support the emperor, and said earnestly, "Why did your majesty come over suddenly? Don't you still have military and national affairs to discuss?"

The emperor glanced at Concubine Shu coolly, avoided Concubine Shu's hand, saluted Concubine Su, and then sat down on the main seat.

"Concubine Shu made the birthday banquet so lively after I left. I even heard the commotion in the imperial study. No, Prince Ning suggested to come over and have a look, and the others also followed."

Concubine Shu's face froze, "..."

The emperor brought not only the attendants but also Prince Ning, followed by the eldest princess, the number one scholar, and other civil and military ministers.

Today, Xiao Lu Zhuangyuan came in side by side holding the eldest princess's hand. His face was ashen and there was a cold light in his eyes. He held the eldest princess's hand tightly and didn't care at all about other people's eyes.

The eldest princess's eyes were red, as if she had just cried. Her gentle brows were a bit cold, and she walked quietly beside Xiao Lu Zhuangyuan.

The expressions on these two people's faces clearly showed that something was not right.

Everyone saw this state in their eyes, and couldn't help but start to guess in their hearts that this was the feeling of a storm coming. Everyone lowered their heads and held their breath, not daring to breathe.

Ning Muqing stood in the crowd and met Chu Lixuan's eyes as soon as she raised her head.

His pair of towering sword eyebrows were slightly frowned, and his expression was a little unhappy. When he met Ning Muqing's cold eyes from a distance, he became even colder.

Chu Lixuan's expression clearly said: Why did this happen to you again?

Ning Muqing, "..."

There is no way, there are many popular people.

She lowered her head and said nothing.

The emperor sat on the throne and looked at the three princesses and said, "I just heard you talking loudly outside. What are you mother and daughter arguing about?"

"It's nothing, it's just that the third princess said some unreasonable things, and I am educating the child."

Concubine Shu said coquettishly, with a hint of lackluster expression.

"Father, I am not ignorant!" The third princess was looking at the official announcement of the third princess and Xiao Lu in shock, but when she heard Concubine Shu's words of education, she immediately retorted and looked at the emperor with a look of grievance. He said, "I just want to seek justice for the eldest sister. I have good intentions, but I am so ignorant."

Concubine Shu suddenly became angry and angry, "Why don't you shut up now!"

"Let her tell." The emperor said calmly, "I also want to know what is going on."

Concubine Shu had no choice but to agree and secretly glared at the third princess, letting the third princess know what to say and be careful.

But now that the third princess was in trouble, she couldn't care less about this. She immediately explained the matter in a more embellished way, adding some of her own thoughts and analysis.

In the end, the third princess said plausibly, "Father, please tell me, am I not doing these things for the eldest sister? She has already been blatantly drugged and plotted. If this person is not caught today, he may be blamed in the future. What are you doing?" Everyone could hear the subtext in the third princess's words.

The eldest princess was extremely angry when she heard this and laughed, "It turns out that the third sister still cares about me so much. It seems that I have to thank you."

Xiao Lu Zhuangyuan listened to the eldest princess pushing against the third princess, holding the eldest princess's hand tightly with an expressionless face.

The third princess saw this in her eyes and couldn't help but said, "Speaking of which, why hasn't the eldest sister been seen for so long? Where has she gone? Why has she even changed her clothes?"

A bit of anger flashed in the eldest princess's eyes, but she had not yet spoken.

"The eldest princess has been with me all the time, and the third princess asked me why she was doing this?" Xiao Lu Zhuangyuan answered first.

The third princess was still a little unwilling, "Really? Why do I remember that Xiao Lu Zhuangyuan was not in the palace."

"I've always been here, but there are some things that I don't need to tell the third princess." Xiao Lu Zhuangyuan not only blocked the third princess's words, but also turned around and choked the third princess secretly.

By the way, Xiao Lu Zhuangyuan held the eldest princess's hand and held it tightly.

The third princess was secretly angry. Seeing that her words failed to provoke her, she could only give up unwillingly. She then looked at the emperor and said coquettishly, "Father, please judge me. Is it too much for me to ask for a body search?"

The emperor said nothing.

"The imperial sister asked all the distinguished ladies and ladies in the capital to search their bodies without any evidence. This is against the rules." The prince said calmly from the side.

"But, didn't I say it? I am also here for the eldest sister!"

"If it's really for me, then let's take a closer look at this Tan Lin. Why would he target someone who has nothing to do with this matter." The eldest princess said angrily, "I really can't understand the third sister's concern. .”

The third princess choked for a moment, then said, "But Tan Lin has already said that she doesn't know anything."

"When your aunt was in Yin's cell in Jingzhao Prefecture, she kept saying that she was framed."

The third princess, "..."

Chu Lixuan asked from the side, "Did Tan Lin be caught by the guards as an arsonist? He has not been interrogated yet."

"I haven't been sentenced yet." Concubine Chen shook her head.

"Then let's drag it out first and go through all the punishments in the sky prison before talking about it." Chu Lixuan wrote lightly with a cold face, "If Tan Lin can resist these punishments and still insists that he knows nothing, Then there may be three points of credibility in this statement.”

"Is Prince Ning planning to surrender?" Concubine Shu was a little displeased.

Chu Lixuan couldn't help but sneered, "A person with evil intentions still has the nerve to say that he is wronged?"

Concubine Shu, "..."

Regardless of whether Tan Lin was the mastermind of what happened to the eldest princess today, he was not the one who was wronged and wronged. What's more, Tan Lin violated palace rules, made such a big fuss, and was captured alive by the guards.

For this crime alone, dragging him out and killing him is not an excessive thing. There is nothing to feel aggrieved about.

Concubine Shu was humiliated by Chu Lixuan in public, and she had already scolded the unfulfilled Tan Lin a thousand times in her heart, so she simply kept a cold face and stopped talking.

Chu Lixuan said coldly, "Here comes someone."

The emperor's imperial guards guarding the door immediately walked in.

"Pull her down." Chu Lixuan raised her chin, "No matter what method you use, just make her speak. If she can't speak, kill her. Keeping such a piece of trash will have no effect."

As soon as these words came out, everyone knew that Chu Lixuan was serious. A faint murderous aura and the smell of blood lingered in the air, making people's throats freeze.

No one/atmosphere dared to speak out.

Concubine Shu and the third princess were still giggling at first, but now they didn't even dare to raise any objections. They could only watch Tan Lin being dragged down while crying.

The emperor looked at Chu Lixuan with some helplessness and said, "Brother, it would be too rough to act like this."

"It's a trivial matter that can be solved easily. Isn't there no one in the harem to take care of it? It's a waste of time to bother the emperor to come over in person."

Chu Lixuan didn't give any face, and said with a cold face.

"You, you! You're just too blunt. I don't know how Princess Ning can tolerate you in the palace."

The emperor was helpless on his face, and even complained about Chu Lixuan in front of Ning Muqing. However, in actual actions, he had no objection at all, and mainly used his words to criticize Chu Lixuan.
