Eight-year-old Princess: Phoenix Reborn

Chapter Thirteen: Soldiers Arrive to Block

The guard presented the things in his hands, and the two bracelets were exactly the same as the bracelets on the table.

"Eh?" Yun Chang frowned, looked at Emperor Ning with some puzzlement and said, "Father, there are only two of these bracelets, why did two more come out suddenly?"

"Where is that maid?" Emperor Ning asked.

The guard beckoned, and a few guards escorted a palace lady from behind. The palace lady's eyes were dull and her face was very pale. The guard escorted her to the emperor, and the palace lady fell limply to the ground. Gritting her teeth and trembling, she said, "I have seen the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor, thousand years for the queen, thousand years for the princess..."

Yun Shang stared at the maid for a while before saying, "Father, this court lady, Chang'er, has met before. She is the maid who cleans in Chang'er's palace, and she is the one who cleans Chang'er's bedroom..."

Emperor Ning nodded, and sternly said to the maid, "Where did you get these two bracelets?"

The maid fell on the ground, her voice trembling violently, "Report to the emperor, it was the servant who secretly took it from the princess' bedroom."

Yun Shang frowned and snorted, "Why did you take this princess's bracelet?"

"Slave..." The palace maid gritted her teeth, and then continued, "It's Princess Huajing! Princess Huajing asked someone to arrest the younger brother of the servant's family, and asked the servant to steal Princess Yunshang's bracelet and give it to her. The servant did not dare not to steal. After stealing, the servant was afraid that Princess Huajing would do something unfavorable to Princess Yunshang. Although the servant was eager to save her brother, Princess Yunshang has always been very good to us maids and servants. I couldn't bear to hurt her. The servant's family is in the jewelry business. The servant has been able to make a lot of jewelry since she was a child, so she secretly imitated two of these bracelets and handed them to Princess Huajing. Originally, the servant planned to secretly give this bracelet It was sent back to Princess Yunshang, but there was no chance..."

Hua Jing's eyes turned red from the moment the maid pointed at her, and she kept saying, "You're talking nonsense, you're talking nonsense!"

As soon as the palace lady finished speaking, Hua Jing knelt down on the ground, pointed at the palace lady and the palace lady behind Concubine Shu, and said, "Father, they all slandered me..."

After finishing speaking, he suddenly said "oh", pointed at Yunshang and said, "Father, it must be her, she must have set up the game..."

The queen, who had been silent all this time, couldn't help opening her mouth, "Your Majesty, I feel that this matter is too strange. It seems that someone carefully planned it. I'm afraid it was to deal with Hua Jing, Your Majesty..."

Before the queen finished speaking, the court lady spoke again, "If your majesty doesn't believe me, you can go to Xie's house in the middle east of the imperial city, who is in the jewelry business, and ask. It's the person who was said to be Princess Huajing a few days ago. Said that the servant committed a crime in the palace, so he wanted to arrest the younger brother of the servant, so he took away the younger brother of the servant. A few days ago, it was the maid's family visit day, and the father and mother of the servant came to tell the servant about this, so the servant had to go secretly. I found Princess Huajing's court lady Die Er..."

The maid gritted her teeth, closed her eyes, and said as if she had made a lot of determination, "This servant also knows that Xianglan was taken away by the maid beside Princess Huajing!"

When Hua Jing heard this, he raised his voice and roared angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about!"

Emperor Ning frowned, put the tea cup in his hand heavily, and said angrily, "Shut up!"

Hua Jing was choked, bit her lip and knelt aside without speaking, but looked straight at Yun Shang with strong hatred in her eyes.

"As Princess Ning, I have no rules, so shut up." After speaking, she turned to the court lady and said, "Go on."

The palace lady nodded and said, "Last night, it was very late, everyone fell asleep, the servant girl had a stomachache because of eating badly during the day, she went to bed late, and faintly heard some movement in the next room , got up and went to the window to look, but saw Xianglan and a maid came out of Qingxin Hall, although the sky was a little dark, but the servant remembered that it was the person next to Princess Huajing, because the servant had only seen it not long ago, I remember it very clearly. After a long time, Xianglan didn’t come back, so the slaves fell asleep. Early this morning, I heard a court lady say that Xianglan drowned in the lake..."

The palace lady kowtowed a few times and said, "This servant girl is afraid and dare not speak out, so she continues to do things as usual in the Qingxin Palace, and was about to clean the princess' bedroom when she heard that the princess was taken away...Although this servant girl entered the palace not long ago, But I really don't want to murder people, they are all slaves, and Xianglan's dead slaves are also responsible, I beg the emperor to punish..."

After the maid finished speaking, she bent down on the ground and did not get up.

Emperor Ning stared at Hua Jing for a long time before saying, "Jing'er, do you have anything else to say? Now that there are so many evidences in front of you, you first took Chang'er's bracelet, and then put another one in Concubine Shu's hand. There, and then someone killed Xianglan, first trying to put the blame on Shang'er, but failing to put the blame on Concubine Shu..."

Emperor Ning looked at the queen, and then continued, "I don't know, but my daughter is so capable, she knows to plot this one to put blame on that one before she reaches Ji, and even knows that the family who captured the maid is threatening the maid to do things for her! She is really my good daughter...Queen, you teach really well..."

The queen got up, knelt on the ground on one knee, and said softly, "It's the concubine's fault. The concubine didn't teach Jing'er well, and I beg the emperor to punish her." She looked indifferent, as if what happened just now had never happened.

Emperor Ning looked at Empress Yuanzhen for a long while, and then said, "Your empress has not managed well, so you have taken back the Phoenix seal, and Concubine Shu will take over temporarily. The empress and Princess Huajing are confined for three months. After three months, we will make a decision." After finishing speaking, he stood up. Get up and walk away.

"Father..." Hua Jing fell to the ground slumped, biting his lip with an angry expression.

Concubine Shu stood up, walked in front of Yunshang, and said with a slight smile, "Princess Yunshang was shocked today, and I will ask someone to cook some mung bean soup for the princess later. The princess's place is not clean now, how about Go and sit in the palace first?"

Yun Chang timidly glanced at the queen who was standing aside without making a sound, hesitated for a while before saying, "Shang'er got up too early today, and I'm still a little sleepy now. Chang'er wants to go back to sleep first."

Concubine Shu stared at her face for a long time before she smiled and said, "Since the princess is sleepy, I won't force you..." After finishing speaking, she turned around and took the maid away, but Yun Shang heard, Concubine Shu murmured from the ground, "I don't want to eat a toast or a fine wine."

Yun Chang lowered her eyes, hiding all her emotions.

"Mother, Chang'er is sleepy, go to bed first, and Chang'er will leave." Then she bowed and turned back to Qingxin Hall. \u003c
