Chapter 387: doubt life

Chapter 387 Doubt about life

Xiao Jin looked at Zhang Shuming in a blink of an eye, "Has the queen returned to the palace?"

Zhang Shuming said: "Go back to the emperor, the slave has not received the news of the queen's return to the palace."

Xiao Jin nodded, and said to the imperial guard in a blink of an eye, "Go and guard the palace gate, the queen will come and inform me as soon as she returns to the palace."

The forbidden army retreated in a daze.

"Call an imperial doctor to check on the third prince's injuries, and let her go after releasing the embarrassment of the concubine."

Zhang Shuming retreated in response.

On the other side of the palace, it took a lot of time for the maids to go back and forth to deliver the clean dresses to the palace.

After Lin Zhuyu got the dress, she was thinking about how to delay the time. When she turned around and walked into the inner hall, she saw that Su Ying was already sitting on a chair drinking tea.

Lin Zhuyu was startled, she didn't hear any movement just now.

"Your Majesty is back, and the maidservant will change it for you."

Su Ying nodded, changed into her dress and went out.

King Yu has been guarding the side hall, and immediately turned his head to look at Su Ying when he heard the movement.

He was about to walk towards Su Ying, when he saw the servant girl running over in a hurry and whispering in his ear.

After hearing this, King Yu's face changed drastically, he took a quick look at Su Ying, then frowned and said: "It's getting late, Xiao Wang, let's take the empress back to the palace."

Su Ying nodded and said: "There is King Laoyu."

King Yu sent Su Ying into the carriage with a disturbed expression, and then turned around and got into the carriage behind him.

The moment the car curtain was lowered, his face turned gloomy, "This self-righteous idiot!"

The maid came to tell him just now that Princess Pingling was caught by the imperial army for assassinating the third prince in the palace, and she is still detained in the palace.

Su Ying's carriage stopped outside the palace gate, and Lin Zhuyu helped her get off the carriage.

The imperial guards who were called to guard outside the palace gate were stunned when they saw Su Ying.

He rubbed his eyes hard, already starting to doubt himself.

"See Empress Empress."

Su Ying signaled them to get up and took Lin Zhuyu directly back to Fengluan Palace.

Yu Wangchao glanced at Su Ying's back, without thinking too much, and went to Xiao Jin's side with the maid's tie.

As soon as Xiao Jin entered the third prince's palace, he heard Concubine De's tearing cries.

"My miserable Highness, what crime have you committed? If it hadn't been discovered in time, your life would have to be confessed..."

"The emperor is here."

Concubine De howled louder when she heard the noise. This was a very good opportunity for Xiao Jin to cancel the engagement.

"Your majesty, I beg you to make the decision for the third prince. The princess of the southern country clearly wanted the life of the third prince. Why did they come to negotiate a peace? They clearly wanted to harm others!" Concubine De Kneeling down in front of Xiao Jin with tears in his nose and crying, he directly raised Princess Pingling's behavior to the level of the country.

Xiao Jin signaled the maid to help Concubine De up, and comforted her: "Don't worry, Concubine, I've already sent someone to investigate this matter. If Princess Pingling really has such evil intentions, I will never tolerate it."

Xiao Li stood aside and lowered his head. At that time, he was very angry when he realized it, but now he was afraid for a while when he recovered.

If the imperial army hadn't come in in time, his life would have been in the hands of Princess Pingling, and that woman really wanted to kill him!

"Is the third brother okay?" Xiao Jin asked, Xiao Li trembled in fright, and looked at Xiao Jin with panic in his eyes.

Seeing this, Xiao Jin reached out and patted him on the shoulder, motioning him to sit down on the chair, "Don't be afraid, I will protect you."

At that moment, Xiao Li really believed Xiao Jin's words, and even regarded him as his backing.

"Your Majesty, she, she really wants to kill me, Your Majesty, please cancel my engagement with that poisonous woman."

Xiao Jin told him not to worry, "Sit down first and talk slowly, go, make a bowl of soothing soup for the third prince."

"yes."

After Xiao Jin sat down on the chair, Zhang Shuming walked in, "Your Majesty, just now Jing Zhaoyin led people to investigate, and they found that there was a kind of aphrodisiac incense in the inner hall of His Highness the Third Highness. It's not over."

"What aphrodisiac? She simply has no sense of shame!" Concubine De's expression turned grim.

Xiao Jin frowned, "Go, bring Princess Pingling here."

"yes."

As soon as the imperial army retreated, a servant came to report that King Yu asked to see him, and Xiao Jin sent someone to come along with him.

King Yu and Princess Pingling were quickly brought here.

The Imperial Army escorted Princess Pingling to kneel down in front of Xiao Jin, and King Yu followed suit.

"Your majesty, there must be some misunderstanding in this matter. The princess wants to know the third prince wholeheartedly, and even sent someone into the palace to inquire about his preferences, just to get along with the third prince in the future. How could she murder him for no reason?" King Yu anxiously defended Princess Pingling.

"She strangled my neck and almost strangled me. You said she wanted to strangle me!"

Xiao Jin looked at Princess Pingling and said, "I ask you, why did you light aphrodisiac incense in the third prince's inner hall, and how did you get in?"

Aphrodisiac?

Princess Pingling is here to kill people, so how could she order such a ghostly thing!

Princess Pingling wanted to deny it, but Yu Wang rushed forward and said: "Why are you so confused, you will marry the third prince sooner or later, even if the third prince doesn't like you now, you still have the holy decree of marriage, he Are you still able to run away? You just crawled towards him so impatiently! You have no shame at all!"

Princess Pingling was taken aback when King Yu spoke, but she quickly realized it.

If she just came to climb Xiao Li's bed, even though she is shameless, she is not guilty of death.

If it is proved that she came to assassinate Xiao Li, she will definitely die!

Balancing the two, Princess Pingling gritted her teeth and said: "Yes, I was confused for a while, and please forgive me, I heard that the third prince doesn't like me and dislikes me for being old, so I want to cook rice with him , I shouldn’t have done it, please forgive me, Your Majesty.”

Princess Pingling has pleaded guilty, but the guilt she can confess is completely different from what Concubine De and Xiao Li imagined!

"Your Majesty, she is here to kill my brother, so don't listen to her nonsense!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, you don't want to be trusted."

Xiao Jin pondered for a moment and said, "Did the imperial guards see the scene at that time? Let them in."

"yes."

The forbidden army who rushed to the inner hall at the first time quickly entered the hall.

"Tell me, what did you see when you came in?"

The forbidden army replied after hearing the words: "Go back to the emperor, when the humble officials and others entered, they saw Princess Pingling sitting on the third prince, pinching the third prince."

"Yes, it's because he wants to resist, I don't want him to run away!" Princess Pingling hurriedly said.

Xiao Jin frowned in embarrassment, "You all stick to your own opinions. Before there is no conclusive evidence, I will not jump to conclusions."

"The emperor..."

Xiao Jin stopped Concubine De's words.

"Don't worry, Concubine, I will return justice to the third prince. It's getting late, you all should rest first. Before Princess Pingling is cleared of suspicion, she will be locked up in the palace prison."

"yes."

"The emperor."

King Yu followed Xiao Jin all the way out of the hall.

"Your Majesty, the princess has absolutely no intention of murdering the third prince. Please, Your Majesty, look into it."

Xiao Jin paused slightly, and looked back at him, "What did King Yu say, you want to discuss peace with me now?"

Thank you for your support for this book, and thank you "BriGhT-L" and "Zidie.Be" for your rewards. I sincerely thank you all. Chanzi will continue to work hard!
