One second to remember [Brushstroke Pavilion] [Free of charge, read the wonderful novel!]

Shen Ninghua lowered her head. The crowd couldn't see her expression, but they could feel a heavy sadness and stubbornness coming from her.

Shen Dong frowned and looked at her, "Ning Hua, your sister's injuries are serious, if you don't treat her carefully, you might leave behind the root of her illness. You definitely can't go home at this time."

Shen Ninghua raised her head and bit her lips as she looked at Shen Ling Han, "Father, this is not our home after all. We don't have all the herbs we need. It would be more convenient to bring little sister back home."

Seeing how persistent she was, Shen Dong was a little annoyed: "You fell down just now too, hurry back and rest. You don't need to care about this place."

"Father …" Shen Ninghua was about to say something when the report sounded from the door.

The Emperor, Empress and a few princes walked in.

Mrs Zhao's eyes flashed with ruthlessness, she pinched the handkerchief and wiped her tears, "Ning Hua, Ling Han is your blood sister, and at this time, you insisted on letting her go so that you could take her life. I know that you have always misunderstood Ling Han, but you are related to her by blood, so even if she did something wrong, you can't do it to her like this." If Ling Han was injured, then Shen Ninghua would not be able to get any benefits.

"What's going on?" Baili Qingyuan frowned.

Mrs Zhao's crying became more and more bitter and sorrowful.

"Reporting to Imperial Father, the few misses originally sat in the pavilion on the fake mountain in the imperial garden. Shen Ling Han and Zhao Ruyun pulled Shen Ninghua to the pavilion to enjoy the scenery. For some reason, Shen Ninghua fell first, and then Shen Ling Han and Zhao Ruyun fell as well."

He briefly explained the situation. Hearing what was said, Baili Qingyuan looked at Shen Ninghua who was kneeling on the ground and said, "Didn't you fall and injure yourself as well? Why are you kneeling here?"

Everyone stared blankly for a moment, not knowing whether he was angry or concerned about Shen Ninghua.

Shen Ninghua was also surprised, but she quickly replied, "Reporting to your majesty, it's against the rules for Second Sister to recuperate in the palace."

Baili Qingfeng said calmly, "I owe you a favor. You can stay in the palace to recuperate for a few days."

Shen Ninghua's heart skipped a beat. She finally detected something unusual and said, "Your majesty, this subject's life is low. I don't dare to break the rules. Please allow this subject to bring his little sister home."

"Shen Ninghua!" "Your Majesty, Esteemed Empress, this servant is not willing to think badly of her child unless it's absolutely necessary. But now that Ling Han's life is at stake, Shen Ninghua has to bring her out of the palace time and time again. He wants my child's life!" Xiao Hua, mother asked you why you were always unwilling to let your sister go. "

Shen Ninghua looked directly into her eyes. With a firm tone, she said, "Mother, I'm doing this for the sake of little sister."

"If you were here to cause trouble for her, wouldn't you be delaying the imperial physician's diagnosis and treatment of your sister?" Tell me, what is it for her own good? " Mrs Zhao asked sternly.

Shen Ninghua opened and closed her mouth, but in the end, she only said stiffly, "I'm just doing this for her own good."

Mrs Zhao sneered: "I think you want her to die! Xiao Hua, you have always resented us, hated us for sending you to another village to recuperate, right? "

"I don't hate it."

"Alright, I don't want to continue arguing with you about this. It's just that you have to think things through so that you don't harm yourself in the end." Mrs Zhao gave Shen Ninghua a cold look and turned to speak. "Your Majesty, Esteemed Empress, this servant asks that the imperial physician show Ling Han and Ru Yun as soon as possible. These two children are too badly injured."

Shen Ninghua's voice sounded urgent, "No."

This time, Shen Dong was also angry: "Your majesty, I've let you watch a joke. Xuanhua, help your elder sister stand to the side! Chen Yuan Zheng, sorry to trouble you. "

At this moment, Shen Ninghua's face was pale, and she couldn't stand up straight. Shen Xuanhua anxiously said, "Big Sis, don't worry about it. Let the imperial physician take a look at Second Sis."

Shen Ninghua sighed deeply, fiercely biting her lips as she stood to the side with a dejected expression.

Baili JinChuan was worried, "Why not sit at the side for a moment?" It must have hurt to fall from that height.

"Many thanks, Prefecture Lord, I'm fine." Shen Ninghua shook her head and looked in the direction of Shen Ling Han.

Chen Zhen was going to treat Shen Linghan, and a palace maid had already prepared something for him.

Chen Fu said, "I want to see the wound on her leg. You guys grab her hand to prevent her from struggling."

"Yes." When one of the palace maids touched Shen Linghan's arm, she was stunned. She thought that there was something in her sleeve that Shen Ling Han did not care about, and just wanted to take it out to put it aside. However, she was too shocked to see what it was that fell out, causing her face to go pale and she kneeled down.

A jade pendant the size of a palm fell from the bed and landed under Baili Qingfeng's feet.

Zhao Hui Ying raised his eyes and swept his sharp gaze across Shen Ling Han's body.

Mrs Zhao's heart was beating so fast that it almost jumped out as she stared at the jade pendant.

This jade pendant was the Crown Prince's keepsake!

"What's going on?" Baili Qingfeng coldly swept his gaze across the crowd. He wanted to look for the crown prince, but he recalled that the crown prince had to wait upon the officials at the front hall. Thus, he could only look at the empress.

Zhao Hui Ying's expression was the same as before, but there was a hint of displeasure in his eyes: "Madam Zhao, why is the crown prince's jade pendant with Shen Lingghan?"

"Reporting to esteemed empress, this … "This..." Mrs Zhao did not know what was going on, but she was also shocked. Shen Linghan did not tell her anything.

What could Mrs Zhao say now? That the Crown Prince had taken a fancy to Shen Ling Han and wanted to take her as his secondary wife? She dared to say that, but the empress dared to skin her alive. The esteemed empress couldn't stand to see anyone else tarnish the crown prince's reputation.

Just as the atmosphere became tense, another palace maid by Shen Ling Han's side brought out another jade pendant with trembling hands, "Reporting to the emperor … Esteemed Empress, this … There was also a jade pendant here … Your Majesty, spare me, Empress, spare me … "

No one paid any attention to the trembling palace maid who was kneeling on the ground. All of their gazes were focused on the jade pendant in her hands.

Mrs Zhao wished she could faint, that jade pendant was actually the Fifth Prince's keepsake!

Hundred Miles Jin Chuan was stunned. Then, he mocked in his heart: Is Shen Linghan crazy? She took the Crown Prince's keepsake, and still dared to take the items from Jin Ze? Is she going to carefully choose?

Baili Qingyuan said, "Shen Lianqing, your daughter has good taste. However, we have decided which one she should choose. We can help her to get married."

Zhao Hui Ying said gently, "Your majesty, Shen Ling Han entered the palace on the first day today. The crown prince is busy entertaining a group of officials, this jade pendant seems rather strange." The two of them did not have the time to meet, so how could they have the chance to gift the jade pendant to each other?

Shen Ninghua raised her head and looked him in the eyes. Her heart slightly trembled. Baili Qing Cang clearly did not have any emotions, yet she felt as if she was seen through. As expected of the emperor of a generation.

"In reply to the emperor, I accidentally saw the bright yellow tassel on the jade ornament earlier. I wanted to advise my sister otherwise, but I don't know why I fell off …" "Your majesty, my sister was raised by her mother and has always been well-behaved. There must have been some misunderstanding."

That was not a fall, it was Shen Ling Han who wanted to silence him! Everyone turned to look at Zhao Yunxiang. Shen Ninghua had clearly taken away Shen Lingghan just now to save her life, but she had actually thought that he was trying to harm her daughter. Now it was time to see how you would explain yourself.

Zhao Yunxiang's clothes were drenched in cold sweat. She looked at Zhao Huiying anxiously, "Esteemed Empress, Ling Han would not do something so impolite. There must have been a misunderstanding."

Baili Jinchuan smirked, "It's a misunderstanding. If the jade pendant wasn't a gift from Big Bro and Fifth Bro, then she stole it?"

"No, no, Second Prince has misunderstood, Ling Han will not steal it." Mrs Zhao suddenly shook her head. Stealing royal items would involve a whole family of nine.

Chu Junyi smiled. "It's neither a gift nor a loot. Did the jade pendant end up with Shen Lingghan?" Once these words were spoken, some people immediately chuckled, waiting to hear what Lady Zhao had to say.

Mrs Zhao raised her head in panic, seeing Shen Ninghua's sudden sharp voice, "Shen Ninghua, you must have planned this right?"

"Mother, are you saying that I stole the jade pendants of the crown prince and the fifth prince, then pretended to fall from the fake mountain and took the chance to slip the pendant into Shen Linghan's sleeve?"

She only knew that in order to protect her daughter, she had to introduce a scapegoat, "Not bad, you have always had a crafty mind, and you also have a lot of enmity towards your sister. Besides you, who else can frame her?"

Before Shen Ninghua could say anything, the surrounding people couldn't hold it in any longer.

"Madame Zhao, that's not right, right? Ning Hua had sent over a fine embroidery on Grandmother's birthday. We're all envious of her. How could such a person be so crafty?"

"That's right. Besides, Miss Ning Hua is also a direct descendant. Her status is not bad, and she looks even more beautiful. Her embroidery skills are even better, so what's there to be jealous of about?"

"You're right, I've heard that Shen Ling Han has done this to her sister a few times."

"Yeah, even someone else's dowry was moved... "Tsk …"

The last sentence was said in a low voice, but everyone could clearly hear it. Immediately, they looked at Mrs Zhao with disdain. They had seen Shen Ninghua defending her just now, but Mrs Zhao had framed her instead … What harm could a daughter without a mother do to her? Mrs Zhao was really narrow-minded.

Mrs Zhao was flabbergasted, she did not know how to explain. Shen Dong's face was gloomy, his heart was filled with hatred, he should not have let this pair of mother and daughter out!

"Your majesty, I don't have the ability to steal the jade pendants of the crown prince and the fifth prince, but I don't care about my life. If I fall from such a high place, it will cost me my life.

Baili Qingqing's eyes flickered as he nodded his head and waved for her to get up.

At this moment, there was movement on the bed. As soon as Shen Lingghan woke up, she felt a sharp pain on her leg. She cried out, "Ah! What happened to my leg?!"

Ling Han, you're awake? Don't worry, your legs are fine, they were just broken. There's no problem at all in recuperating. " Mrs Zhao quickly went over.

"Mother, wuuuuuuu," Shen Ling Han held Mrs Zhao's hand and wailed, "Mother, please forgive me, I didn't do it on purpose."

Mrs Zhao's body stiffened. She opened her mouth, but was unable to speak.

Shen Ling Han raised her head in shock, why was everyone looking at her like that?
