Chapter 144
The aggressive gaze of the emperor was obviously putting pressure on her.

If she told the truth and said that what she saw was Shen Meng, no one would believe it. There was Zixing by her side to testify for her, and if she was not good, they might bite back.

Helian Yueru has already done this, and she has seen the consequences.

And both of them are acting as good people now, saying that they can't take advantage of it at all.

What the emperor wanted to hear was for her to follow Helian Yueru's words, that having an affair with a guard and being coerced by someone are two completely different meanings, and they are facing completely different endings.

If she still said that she saw it with her own eyes, the emperor and Helian Yueru would hate her.

But if she said no, she would be lying in front of the queen.

No matter which way it is said, she is already Zhu Bajie looking in the mirror, and she is not human on both sides.

"What's wrong with you, Crown Princess? Tell the emperor quickly what you saw! This matter concerns the majesty of the royal family, so you can't talk nonsense." Cao Xiurong urged.

Nangong Xiaoxiao raised her eyes tremblingly, and as soon as her eyes touched the emperor's, she knelt down, "Father, my son... my son didn't really look at it. There was no lamp, so I only saw two figures, whether they went in or were forced to go in, I didn't see clearly, so I dare not speak falsely."

Her words not only did not calm Helian Longyi, but added to his anger. He accused her of drinking: "As a princess, the future master of the harem, when you meet the princess being coerced, you don't think of a way to stop it, but make it clear. Tell the world to call so many people over, how will you let Yueru stand in the future? How will this woman and child talk about her? Princess Xiyue's innocence, how can you allow you to be so childish? Come, come, declare my will, abolish The status of Crown Princess Xiaoxiao of Nangong has been reduced to Liangdi, and without my will, she is not allowed to step out of the Eastern Palace."

Nangong Xiaoxiao never expected that the emperor would punish her so severely. She panicked and didn't know what to say for herself. She was dragged out of Yaofeng Palace, and she still hasn't recovered from the emperor's anger.

Zixing lowered her eyes, with a faint sneer hanging on her lips.

She had known for a long time how much Helian Yueru held in her father's heart.

Everything was within her expectation, leaving Xiangyun's body behind was to give Helian Yueru a chance to stand up.

If her father felt sorry for her, she would be fine. Even if she had an affair with a guard today, her father would find a way to make this matter a completely different ending.

He doesn't need to know the truth at all, because all this is also within his grasp.

Father's anger needs to be borne by one person.

Then, that Nangong Xiaoxiao who said he saw it with his own eyes and took the Queen and the others to Changyin Pavilion, naturally became the most 'innocent' person.

When Cao Xiurong saw that the emperor had abolished the status of Nangong Xiaoxiao's concubine, he fell silent all of a sudden.

She is also someone who serves the emperor, so she naturally understands that this matter has come to an end.

The emperor doesn't need the truth, and naturally he doesn't need her, a talkative person, to find out the truth for him.

"Take this man out and beat him to death with sticks." After dealing with Nangong Xiaoxiao, Helian Longyi pointed at the bound guards and shouted.

"Yes." The emperor gave an order, and immediately a guard came in and took that person away.
