Eight-year-old Princess: Phoenix Reborn

Emperor Ning looked towards Hua Jing, his eyes were full of coldness, "I asked you to come to the flower viewing banquet, you justified that you are not healthy, and you just wait in the palace, but just now, the palace is full of people. I can't find you, where have you been?"

Hua Jing couldn't help shivering under the gaze of Emperor Ning, his face turned pale, "My son, my son saw that the flowers in the palace were blooming well, so I went to see the flowers for a while."

"Oh? Which yard did you see the flowers in?" Emperor Ning withdrew his gaze, but the voice of the question gradually cooled down.

Hua Jing gritted his teeth and said softly, "Die Yuan."

"Really?" Emperor Ning asked softly, then raised his voice, "Come here, go and bring the maids and guards from Dieyuan."

Hua Jing lowered her head and stood there blankly, seemingly at a loss as to what to do. Emperor Ning glanced at her, then turned his head to Dali Temple and asked, "What else do you want to ask?"

The Minister of Dali Temple has worked in the hands of Emperor Ning for many years, and is still somewhat familiar with Emperor Ning's self-inquiry. Just now, seeing Emperor Ning's attitude towards Hua Jing, he seemed very disappointed. Many, "Princess Huajing, I want to ask you, just now the attendants outside the Jinglan Garden have identified you, saying that you have entered this courtyard?

Hua Jing gritted his teeth, shook his head and said, "This courtyard is the usual resting place for this princess, but today the Japanese princess has never entered it, but who said that she saw this princess?"

A man dressed as a servant came out and said timidly, "It's a servant, but the servant clearly saw the princess entering the yard just now, and many people saw it, but the princess didn't seem to be wearing this dress just now, she should be wearing it It's a pink dress.

"That's right, there are peach blossoms embroidered on the hem of the skirt. I like to embroider flowers, and I am most impressed by the patterns on the clothes." A maid-like person also said softly.

Dali Siqing looked at the clothes on Hua Jing's body. Hua Jing was clearly wearing a water-blue skirt. Hua Jing also quickly raised his eyes and said to Dali Temple Qing, "My lord, these servants must have misunderstood. The princess is not wearing a pink dress. If these servants have not misunderstood, then someone must be pretending This princess, if you want to confuse your lord's sight, please be clear."

Dali Temple Minister nodded, "Your official will definitely find out the truth of this matter." After speaking, he raised his head and looked at the kneeling servant, "Apart from the clothes, what do you remember?"

Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads, but one of the servant girls who looked honest and friendly raised her eyes and said, "My lord, this servant suddenly remembered something that might be helpful to you. Just now, this servant saw the woman who pretended to be a princess enter Before the yard, I stood at the gate of the yard for a while, just because the roses bloomed at the gate of the yard, and seemed to be attracted by the flowers. It should be that the tie was not light, because at that time the maid beside the woman took a veil to help her bandage, the servant found that the maid beside the woman looked somewhat similar to the aunt behind the princess, but The princess's clothes are different from that of the woman's, maybe the maid is also pretending to be, but the adults can let people search this aunt's body to see if there is that veil, so as to clear up the grievances for the princess."

That maid is very smart, after listening to Hua Jing's words, she automatically changed into a woman pretending to be a princess, but her eyes fell on the maid behind Hua Jing, and she said that she should search the maid's body to help clean Hua Qing. mirror suspicion.

Yun Chang lowered her head, covered her mouth with the brocade handkerchief in her sleeve, and coughed lightly, covering the corner of her mouth with a smile that almost revealed her emotions.

Yun Shang didn't miss it, Hua Jing's face suddenly changed. Not only was Yun Chang not mistaken, many people saw it.

Emperor Ning nodded, "If that's the case, let's search that maid's body, someone..."

The person who searched was the nanny who was waiting beside Emperor Ning. After only three or five strokes, he found a pink handkerchief from the maid. It was made of high-quality silk. It was for Huajing, but the maid who was close to her was keeping it for her. Just wear it.

The mother unfolded the brocade veil, and everyone saw that there was an obvious bloodstain on a corner of the veil.

Emperor Ning raised his eyes to look at Hua Jing, his face became more and more cold, "What's the matter with this brocade handkerchief?"

Hua Jing only felt dizzy, put his hands in his sleeves, and said after a while, "Father, my son was indeed injured, but it was not stabbed by the rose flower. I am afraid that the rose flower cannot stab such a big one." Come to the hole." As she said that, she stretched out her hand, and there was a small hole in the palm of her hand, but it was more pierced than the thorns of rose flowers.

Hua Jing looked at the wound in his hand, and said softly, "This wound was caused by my minister when I was admiring the flowers. I was a little tired, so I rested in the gazebo. Be careful, the hairpin was stabbed into the palm of the hand, so Yayun took the embroidered handkerchief and covered the wound for Erchen, but the wound was deeper, it just healed up, and now it started to bleed again."

Yunshang couldn't help but want to laugh again, Hua Jing is really cruel, even she can do it herself, Yunshang had learned some medical skills when she was with Xiao Yuanshan before, just look at it, you will know , the wound in Hua Jing's hand was clearly stabbed just now, and the attack was not light. Yun Chang sighed, but Hua Jing was only interested in gaining sympathy, but he didn't expect that it was too late, there was only a little blood on the brocade handkerchief, and seeing the wound in Hua Jing's hand, I'm afraid it would be able to remove the thin brocade handkerchief. Dye a lot of bright red.

Yun Chang's eyes showed a bit of worry appropriately, walked to Hua Jing and looked at the wound and said, "Ah, this wound is really not shallow, sister Huang, does it hurt?"

Hua Jing clearly saw the taste of gloating in Yun Shang's eyes, so he just snorted coldly, "It's okay, it's just a small injury."

Hearing this, Yun Shang took the pink brocade handkerchief that the nanny was still holding, and pressed it on the wound, "Although it's only a small injury, you can't let it bleed, Father, don't interrogate it yet , Let the imperial physician bring some medicine for Miss Huang."

As Yun Chang said, she turned her head and looked at the brocade handkerchief in her hand, and she saw that the brocade handkerchief was stained red with blood. It is obviously made of silk, which is extremely breathable and thin, and it is very elegant in the hand, but the worst thing about this kind of handkerchief is that it does not absorb sweat. But like Hua Jing, because of his noble status, I am afraid that ice cubes are always supplied in the house, and someone will fan him when he goes out, so whether the handkerchief is easy to use does not seem to be that important.

Hua Jing stared blankly, and saw some clues, hurriedly wanted to take back his hand, but it was over, only saw Yun Shang holding the brocade handkerchief and unfolding it, the pink handkerchief was stained just now A large patch of bright red.

"What's the matter? Why is there so much blood? Why is the veil stained red? Hurry up and tell the imperial physician." Yun Shang hurriedly shouted without giving Hua Jing a chance to speak.

Just now, when Caicang felt that Qingsu was injured, the imperial physician should be at the side, and Yun Chang quickly walked out of the room when he called out.

"My humble minister sees the emperor."

Emperor Ning nodded, and said to the imperial physician, "Excuse me, go and see how serious the injury on Princess Huajing's hand is?"

The imperial doctor responded, and walked to Hua Jing, "Princess, the old minister is impolite, and you want the princess to show the injury on your hand?"

Seeing that everyone was watching, Hua Jing knew that this test would definitely not pass, and he quickly thought of countermeasures, and hated Yun Shang even more in his heart.

The imperial doctor examined it carefully, and then said, "The princess should have been injured by a sharp weapon. Although the wound is not big, it is a bit deep, but it's just a bit painful, but it's not a problem. I will just prescribe some ointment for you. "

Yun Shang unfolded the veil, and said to the imperial physician, "You said that the injury of Huang Jie is fine, but why is there so much blood? The veil is all stained red..."

The imperial physician knew that the woman in front of him was Princess Huiguo, whom Emperor Ning loved very much now, so he didn't dare to be negligent. He glanced at the handkerchief in her hand, and then smiled clearly, "Princess, I am not very familiar with this fabric. Just looking vaguely at the appearance of this veil, it should be made of silk, right? Silk veils are thin and easy to infect, so they look scary, but they are not that powerful."

Yun Chang nodded, said "Oh", and returned to the original place. He just smiled awkwardly, "Oh, it's okay, it's okay, Mr. Xing will continue the trial."

But the hand quickly stuffed the brocade handkerchief into the hand of the mother. Everyone was a little puzzled when they saw Yun Shang's movements. It took a while to remember that when the maid took it out just now, there was only a little blood on the brocade handkerchief. Although it can be seen clearly, it is not so scary.

However, Princess Huajing said that the wound on her hand was stabbed before, and the wound just started to ooze blood just now. The bleeding from the treated wound is so severe, let alone the wound just stabbed.

Perhaps it was Princess Huiguo who thought of this, because she was afraid of causing trouble to Princess Huajing because of the deep love between her sisters, so she pretended that she didn't know anything.

Everyone looked at Yunshang with a little more appreciation. Compared with Huajing who frequently lied, Yunshang, who defended her imperial sister like this, was a little more kind.

"Your majesty..." came a voice full of anger, and everyone followed the voice, and saw a man in military uniform hurried in, "Reporting to the emperor, my subordinates found an injured man behind a rockery in the backyard." This man, by the looks of it, should be someone's servant, but he was seriously injured, he woke up just now, and kept asking to see the emperor, saying that he wanted to avenge his son..."

As soon as these words came out, it was like thunder. Yun Shang clearly saw that Hua Jing's complexion suddenly turned pale, and Wen Qingzhu, who was kneeling on the ground, bent his back a little more. Yun Chang touched the jade pendant on her waist, a smile flashed in her eyes, here she comes...

Hua Jing, Hua Jing, how does this reminder taste?

Emperor Ning raised his voice, "Bring it up."

A few men who looked like soldiers carried a blood-stained man into the courtyard. The man was wearing a blue-gray servant uniform, his face was blue, probably because he was in severe pain, and his face was covered with sweat.

Leading the soldier to let go of the boy, he lay down on the ground with some difficulty, and said, "Your servant pays homage to the emperor, this servant is Mr. Wen Qingzhu's book boy, and this servant has something to report to the emperor, your lord, my son stabbed the third prince of Yelang Kingdom!" There is something else hidden about this matter, please tell the emperor clearly..."

Before the words fell, Wen Qingzhu, who had been kneeling on the ground, jumped up suddenly, and was about to rush towards the book boy, with a faint murderous intent in his eyes, but before his body rushed in front of the book boy, he had already been crushed. The man dressed as a soldier standing next to the bookboy stopped him.

The book boy raised his eyes to look at Wen Qingzhu, with a few tears in his eyes, "Master, I know that you are doing it for the good of the Wen family. It's just that you are the only son of the Wen family. If something happens to you, what will you do to the Wen family?" What to do? You have been teaching your slaves to know how to tell right from wrong, my lord, why are you so confused this time?"

"You said there was something hidden in this matter, but you said, what is the hidden thing?" Emperor Ning's voice was calm, making it difficult to distinguish between emotions and anger, but Yun Shang knew that his anger was about to be uncontrollable up.

The bookboy was a little weak, coughed for a while, and then said, "Reporting to the emperor, the young master has admired Princess Huajing since he was a child, but the young master knows his identity and dare not think about it. Today, the young master saw Princess Huajing while walking in the garden. The princess seemed a little unhappy. She was stabbed in the hand while enjoying the rose flowers. The young master was worried, so he followed. But when he walked to the gate of the yard, he hesitated, for fear of ruining the princess's reputation, he just hesitated , but suddenly heard the exclamation of Her Royal Highness, the young master was afraid that something would happen to the princess, so he hurried in, but he didn't want to, and saw..."

The boy coughed a few more times, coughed up some blood, and said after a while, "I saw Princess Huajing and the third prince of Yelang...they, they were lying on the ground in the courtyard, and the third prince of Yelang...had already... The princess's skirt was lifted up, even the obscene trousers... The young master was already in love with the princess. Seeing this, he thought it was the third prince of the Yelang Kingdom who had forced the princess, so he rushed over. The third prince of the Yelang Kingdom was skilled in martial arts, so he pulled out his dagger and pointed towards the princess. The young master stabbed over, and the servant hurriedly stood in front of the young master. The dagger stabbed the servant, but the young master seemed to go crazy, pulled out the dagger, and stabbed at the third prince of Yelang Kingdom, who was unprepared for a moment , was stabbed."

Hua Jing seemed to be unresponsive, his body was on the verge of falling, and he glared at the bookboy hatefully, as if he wanted to tear him into pieces, but because there were so many people here, he didn't dare to really do it, so he could only ignore it. Mudi stood where he was, bearing all kinds of gazes from everyone.

"Princess Huajing seemed to be frightened when she saw this situation, and she screamed. That scream will definitely attract guards, so the third prince of Yelang Kingdom ordered the servant to find a secluded place and throw it away. The servant finally remembered , Princess Huajing seems to be talking to the young master, but I don’t know what Princess Huajing said, I just remember that the man threw the servant behind the rockery, I held my breath, and then lied to him, but I heard someone say that the young master stabbed me Injured the third prince of Yelang Kingdom, he will be executed..." The book boy's voice became lower and lower, and the imperial physician at the side walked over, took out a medicine bag and pressed it on his wound.

The events had been roughly understood, and everyone present looked at Emperor Ning. Emperor Ning looked calm, but there seemed to be a storm brewing in his eyes.

"Report! Your Majesty, my subordinates found this set of clothes in a courtyard to the west. I heard from the surrounding servants that Princess Huajing has been there before." The soldier held a pink dress in his hand. The table is embroidered with beautiful peach blossoms, which is exactly the same as the confession of those servants before.

Emperor Ning patted the armrest of the chair suddenly, everyone was startled, and quickly fell to their knees, "The emperor calm down."

"Go, bring the third prince of Yelang Kingdom here. I'd like to ask, why did he insult our Princess Ningguo? Could it be that he thinks Ningguo is kind and easy to bully!"

There was pent-up anger in his voice.

"Your Majesty Ningguo, I, He Numo, refuse to accept it. You, Princess Huajing, were picked up by the prince from the mountains and forests several months ago, and became the prince's pet. It's just that the prince didn't know it was your princess at that time. , and, according to your princess, the child she lost some time ago belongs to our prince."

A voice of dissatisfaction came, and everyone present was startled, cursing secretly in their hearts, how could they suddenly know such an explosive thing, if the emperor pursued it, it would be a disaster.

But he couldn't help thinking to himself, a few months ago, Princess Huajing did go to the border once, because the son-in-law disappeared at the border, and went to find him. At that time, many people praised Princess Huajing. However, some time ago, there seemed to be some vague messages in the imperial city, which were about Princess Huajing. I heard that she had a miscarriage while hunting, and the child was only three or four months old. Everyone listened to it in private, but they just secretly said in their hearts that there are indeed many right and wrong in front of the widow's door. Moreover, this widow is still such a noble princess, and it is understandable to raise a few male favorites in private, but it is a bit too much to have a child.

But he never thought that this child would be the child of the third prince of Yelang Kingdom. You know, at that time, the Ning Kingdom was at war with the Yelang Kingdom. In this way, even if Princess Huajing was accused of collaborating with the enemy, it might be justified. No wonder she tried every means to hide this matter.

"It's your turn to intervene when I'm talking? Someone! Pull He Numo down and beat him fifty times." Emperor Ning said angrily.

Everyone quickly lowered their heads, for fear of provoking the emperor's wrath, but in their hearts they believed a little bit what Fang Cai, a man from He Numo, said.

At this moment, the third prince of Yelang Kingdom stepped into the courtyard. Because of his injuries, his complexion was not very good, but even though his waist was wrapped in thick gauze, there was still some blood oozing faintly, but I just saw that his pace was a little slower than usual, but he was not too weak.

Hearing that Emperor Ning ordered to beat his confidant ministers, he just raised his eyebrows slightly, and replied, "The emperor is right, he should be spanked, how can Princess Huajing's reputation allow him to talk so nonsense?" The language is broken."\u003c
