The reborn prince can't be pushed down

Chapter 159 Revenge
The purpose of the Shangsi Festival is to wash away the dirt and eliminate disasters. Now that such filthy things happen, it is tantamount to slapping the royal family in the face.

Looking at the empress's increasingly gloomy face, someone tried to persuade him: "Your Majesty, is there any misunderstanding? The people who came here today are all famous people, so there's no need to do such a thing for a moment's pleasure, right?"

You know, doing such dirty things under the eyes of the emperor is tantamount to courting death.

Ning Yuezhao restrained her anger and asked the guard, "What's going on?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, when the subordinates and others were patrolling the palace, they found a woman in a room screaming in surprise, so they broke into the room to check. A man was trying to do something wrong to a woman lying on the ground. The woman was disheveled and delirious. Unclear."

"That's someone's stolen goods and they have been seized, just deal with them directly." Ning Yuezhao said with a slight disgust.What a bad mood for something like this to happen on a great day.

"But..." The guard hesitated to speak, so he turned his eyes to Jiang Nian for help.

Jiang Nian was recalling what happened to Ming Han, and he listened to the incident reported by the guard. Suddenly seeing the look in the guard's eyes, he calmed down and asked, "Who are those two?"

If it can be dealt with quietly, the imperial army under Zuo Ming's rectification will definitely not let such a thing come to the imperial court, let alone such an occasion as the Qushui Banquet.

The guard glanced at Jiang Nian gratefully, "The man... is General Xiao, and the woman's identity is the female examiner of Qiuwei last year, from Liuzhou, her name is Song Yiyi, and she went to the imperial capital alone to take the exam."

Xiao Jingtian!He is the only one who can be called General Xiao in Daxing. It is no wonder that the imperial guards are wary.

Ever since Ning Yuezhao had a sincere talk in Fengxian Hall last time, Xiao Jingtian didn't know what was wrong, and began to complain of illness and stay away from court. It wasn't until the military expenses were in place that he went to the northwest with the military supplies in silence.As for the Lin family, after realizing that his son was going to the frontier again, he stopped making trouble.Lin's food is not bad in the palace, so she has been living in the palace like this.

This time when Xiao Jingtian returned to the court, he didn't mention the matter of bringing back the Lin family, and he didn't even visit the palace.

Ning Yuezhao originally thought that he would not appear at the Qushui Banquet this time, but she did not expect to give her such a big gift as soon as he appeared, it was really good!

The guards didn't mention the woman's family, so she is not the daughter of a prominent family, but now Jiang Nian and Ning Yuezhao are planning to use the imperial examination to promote the common family, so if this matter is not handled properly, the world will definitely be called poor. The children were chilled.

Jiang Nian stretched out his hand to hold Ning Yuezhao's hand, and said: "This matter is related to women's fame, and the matter is not yet clear, Guhe Your Majesty should go to the scene."

Ning Yuezhao immediately understood what he meant, and looked at Jiang Qixi, "I will leave this place to Elder Jiang Ge."

Jiang Qixi stood up and cupped his hands, "I obey the order."

Qingchi stood up suddenly, "Your Majesty, my daughter is requesting to go with you. My daughter had some friendship with Miss Song during the exam. Now that something like this happened, my daughter wants to accompany her and comfort her."

Just as Ning Yuezhao was about to respond, Xu Miaoyun also stood up, "Your Majesty, my servants also request to go together!"

Jiang Nian glanced at the two of them, "You two are Yunying's unmarried girls, so there is no need to get involved in such matters."

After speaking, he took Ning Yuezhao and left.

Before Jiang Nian and Ning Yuezhao reached the side hall where the incident happened, they heard Xiao Jingtian's angry voice——

"Don't let this general say it a second time. I don't know who this inexplicable woman is. I came in to check when I heard a woman screaming, and then you came. What is this general's identity? Why don't you find such a lackluster yellow-haired girl in this remote palace!"

Arrogant and vicious, typical of Xiao Jingtian's speaking style.

"I was delirious just now, and I don't know who the villain is, but when the guards came in, there were only you and me in the hall. You can't leave if you are still under suspicion." It was a female voice that was weak but firm.

Ning Yuezhao frowned, "I haven't seen you for a while, but this person is still so annoying."

Jiang Nian smiled, "I have made progress. In the past, if the guards dared to stop him for so long, he would have drawn his sword long ago."

"That's true!"

While speaking, the two had already stepped into the palace surrounded by guards and palace people.

"See the emperor, husband." The guards saluted one after another.

"Exemption."

Ning Yuezhao looked around the palace, because the emperor's arrival, although the palace was located in a remote location, it was cleaned cleanly.

Xiao Jingtian was dressed in a dark blue robe, with serious eyes, and the guards confronted him with knives.

Looking past them, one could see a woman in a light blue coat and skirt sitting on the ground, her belt was torn, she could only hold the front of the skirt tightly with her hands to prevent the spring from leaking out.Her facial features are profound, her skin is snow-like, and the most striking thing is her big eyes, dark like pearls, innocent and slightly absent-minded.If this can be regarded as lackluster, there are really not many women in the world who can be seen.Listening to what she said just now, she is also a woman with a clear mind.When Ning Yuezhao saw her, she fell in love with her.

Ning Yuezhao and Jiang Nian looked at each other, and tacitly decided to split up.

Ning Yuezhao motioned to the maid beside her, "Lansha, go and prepare some clothes. Zhuyun will help her up and take her to the next room. I will inquire in person."

Lan Sha blessed Fushen and retreated, while Zhu Yun helped her to the next door.

After Ning Yuezhao left, only Jiang Nian and Xiao Jingtian were left standing opposite each other.

"I have never done such shameless things!" Xiao Jingtian frowned, looked at Jiang Nian and said seriously.

Jiang Nian didn't reply to his words, just walked around the room.

Seeing his silence, Xiao Jingtian thought that he was trying to benefit from public affairs, and was immediately annoyed.He and this couple had formed countless ties, so after learning the truth from the old housekeeper, he couldn't save face, so he had to put this matter on hold.I don't want to make a detour, and he fell into the hands of these two people again, which is really unpleasant!
"What do you mean?"

Jiang Nian stopped by the open window, pointed to the window sill, "There are footprints here."

In order to prepare for the Qushui Banquet, the inside and outside of the palace has been cleaned. Today's banquet is only halfway through, so this footprint must have been left today. How can a normal person leave the door open and open the window?
The guards only saw Xiao Jingtian as soon as they entered the door. They took it for granted that they had caught something. In addition, Xiao Jingtian insisted on leaving. In order to compete with him, they didn't check the scene.

Xiao Jingtian hurriedly followed, overjoyed in his heart, "Have you seen it? This means that someone else came in. It's just that he jumped out of the window and escaped from here. He would have become a scapegoat."

Jiang Nian smiled at him, "How do you know that someone is trying to cover up? First rub down the footprints and compare them with Xiao Aiqing's."

"You!" Xiao Jingtian glared at Jiang Nian, this is definitely taking the opportunity to retaliate!
　I'm too sleepy today, and I don't have the energy to write more, so let's take a look at it first.
