brush! brush! brush!
The imperial guards behind Xu Wei retreated in an orderly manner, keeping a distance from him.
Say hello to other men like this, Ninth Princess, even if you don't want your own reputation, you should still care about other people's life and death.
Xu Wei, "...", this Ninth Princess, every time they meet, can bring him some surprises, but also troubles.
He stood with his fists folded, glanced at someone who had already stood still not far away, and lowered his head: "I have seen the Ninth Princess, and I heard someone calling for help here, so I came here in a hurry. Can you see this person?"
He did come when he heard the voice, and the voice was extremely familiar.
If his guess is correct, it is the little girl in front of him.
Xiao Ting stood there quietly, and laughed when she heard the words, "It's okay, that person is me, the prince pulled me to jump down from there just now, I thought he was going to commit suicide, so I called for help."
Everyone: "...", they all turned their heads to look at the platform she mentioned.
The neck almost straightened up, and finally saw the top.
Hehe, are you kidding me
The Ninth Prince pulled you to jump down from the top
It is the highest viewing platform in the Imperial City, tens of feet high. Although it is called a viewing platform, it has other uses. It is strictly forbidden for anyone to go up it on weekdays.
Is that something humans can do
Moreover, the Ninth Prince wants to commit suicide, so you call for someone to save his life.
Are you sure you didn't scream because you were scared
"My concubine, don't be joking. If there is nothing wrong, I will leave first." Even Xu Wei was speechless, and didn't want to entangle her again.
This little princess is really getting more and more outrageous, she dares to make any jokes.
He felt that he couldn't stay any longer, and the man's seemingly absent eyes swept over him, which made him uneasy.
In particular, Xu's mansion is now in such a mess with Jiuwang's mansion, and he doesn't want to suffer from it.
"Hey, hey, Xu Wei, you really don't believe my concubine."
Xiao Ting stopped him, pouted in displeasure.
"My subordinates will see the Ninth Prince."
A cool breath approached behind her, and before Xiao Ting said anything, she fell into an even colder embrace.
A faint sound came from the ear.
"Is there nothing else to do?"
Such a heavy blame, who can't hear it, one by one rushed into the flowers and plants, and disappeared in an instant.
Including Xu Wei.
Xiao Ting was dumbfounded, "You are so perverted!"
Even the Janissaries were scared away.
"kindness?"
The Ninth Prince hugged Xiao Ting by the waist, and strode towards the imperial study room. Many people saw him along the way, and they all knelt down to pay respects, and then whispered, what happened.
And Xiao Ting wanted to come down with all her teeth and claws.
So much so that the emperor knew about them even before they reached the Imperial Study Room.
"This is the imperial palace, can you two restrain yourself." Facing Lord Ninth, the emperor couldn't say anything to blame, and felt an inexplicable affection for him.
"Tinger's leg hurts."
Hehe, what the hell is this explanation? You don't have to come if your legs hurt, or you can sit in a sedan chair. After all, the Ninth Princess is treated like this.
What's the matter with holding it in
This is the Royal Study Room.
Xiao Ting didn't say much, she stood beside the Ninth Prince, and then looked around with her big eyes blinking.
It doesn't matter, there are a few old men here, staring at her angrily with hatred.
Xiao Ting jumped to the left of the Ninth Prince, showing her head, and asked the Ninth Prince softly, "Have you bullied those old men?"
The Ninth Prince looked back at the past, and replied without changing his face and heartbeat: "No."
"Then did you hit someone's son or, um, bully someone's daughter?"
Ninth Prince's forehead was blue, "Not at all."
So, Xiao Ting was relieved now, and asked: "Then when they saw me, why did they look like they wanted to eat me?"
"You read it wrong." Ninth Prince said indifferently.
Xiao Ting felt relieved now.
"Your majesty, you should be the master of the old minister. The Ninth Prince, relying on his status as the emperor, killed the elder granddaughter of the old minister with impunity. He must give the old minister an explanation for this matter."
The first one to speak was naturally Mr. Xu Ge.
He discussed with An Guogong for a long time, and learned a lot from his family. He knew that he was in the wrong, so he came here to act first.
"Yes, Your Majesty, for some reason yesterday, the Ninth Prince 'invited' the old minister to the Xu Mansion, without saying anything, just left this booklet, let the old minister and Mr. Xu Ge choose by themselves, and marry their daughter to one of them."
As he said that, a eunuch stepped forward to take the so-called booklet, and respectfully put it on the imperial case.
The emperor glanced at his younger brother, and saw that the Ninth Prince was calm and calm, without any expression, and felt helpless in his heart.
"The old minister asks himself, after so many years of hard work, although he has done nothing great, he has never done anything wrong, and he has lived up to the emperor's grace. Even if he doesn't like his little daughter, he doesn't need to marry her at will!"
"Yes, the old minister also thinks that it must be the idea of the Ninth Prince. She once said that the Ninth Prince can only marry her. The poor old minister's granddaughter only admires the Ninth Prince and is hated by her."
The emperor flipped through the booklet in his hand, there were only two names on it, he couldn't see why, he didn't know these two names, so he must not be a high-ranking official.
And Xiao Ting originally listened to the excitement, but with the way these old foxes spoke, she knew it and couldn't understand it.
Unexpectedly, Ben listened with the mentality of watching the excitement, but turned to himself.
"Hey, hey, you guys have something to say, don't get involved with this girl."
As soon as she made a sound, she found that the old men turned their heads and stared at her collectively.
"Your Majesty, as a spiritualist, the Ninth Princess should not have combined with us and other mortals. Think back, since she married into the Ninth Prince's Mansion, how many things have happened, even the Ninth Prince seems to have changed.
Yesterday, you did such a cruel thing, all for a woman, your majesty, you are the king of a country, you must not tolerate such a witch to run amok and bring disaster to the empire..."
As they spoke, the few people who came in with them also knelt down.
Shout out to deal with Xiao Ting and return the empire to a peaceful and prosperous age.
Xiao Ting seemed to be struck by lightning, and looked suspiciously at these people who suddenly knelt down, a little speechless.
Finally, she came out and came to the old man Xu Ge who spoke first, squatted down, put her elbows on her knees, and asked in confusion: "Hey, old man, please make it clear, what do you mean by this girl is a disaster for the country and the people? Did I give away the empire or did I kill your family?"
"Oh, I just heard you say that the prince killed your granddaughter? Who is it, Xu Lingyue? She's dead?"
Elder Xu Ge almost vomited blood in anger. This woman's calm and clear appearance meant several things.
That was murder, killing someone, and she was so calm, she was really cold-blooded.
A perfect match with that kid is not a good thing, so he replied: "Yes, the Ninth Prince killed my poor granddaughter, and it was all because of you."
"For me, you tell my concubine clearly. If you slander, you just don't take the royal family seriously, and it's a capital offense."
Everyone: "...", do you still know what a capital offense is
Seeing that the emperor didn't stop him, Xu Ge secretly hated him, but he was not afraid, and the emperor would not do anything to him.
So, he told how the Ninth Prince threw his granddaughter's body at his feet yesterday, how he ignored them, and how he threatened them in the end.
After Xiao Ting heard this, she remained silent for a long time.
Xu Ge always saw her with such an expression, knowing that the Ninth Prince had nothing to say this time, after all, it was the truth.
But what they didn't expect was that the Ninth Concubine in front of them suddenly got up, rushed towards the Ninth Prince, hugged his waist, folded her arms around him, turned her body back forty-five degrees, and said with a smile: "So the prince is venting his anger for me, don't you really like this girl?"
Ninth Prince: "..." He looked down at a certain little girl who was smiling like a flower, and stretched out his hand to protect her waist, for fear that she would fall.
Then, she turned to look at Elder Xu Ge, and said: "If she dares to kill this concubine, she must have the consciousness of being killed. Fortunately, this concubine was already in a coma at that time, otherwise it would not be as simple as just letting her die."
Xiao Ting's attitude towards the world was taught by her master, to treat ordinary people with extreme kindness, but she is not a steamed stuffed bun, and she will let them go when they come to kill her.
That's not kindness, but something wrong with the brain.
"You, you..." Xu Ge was so angry that he didn't know what to say.
His poor granddaughter's bones are not cold, and these two bitches are still here to show their affection.
Then she looked at the emperor and said sadly: "Your Majesty, please be the master of the old minister. The elder granddaughter of the old minister is urinating and practicing martial arts outside. She has never met the Ninth Concubine, so how could she want to kill her? Besides, she just came back the day before yesterday to participate in the Eldest Prince's selection of concubines. Who knew that she would encounter such a disaster."
He said this very cleverly, and he made it clear that he did not admit that her granddaughter was going to assassinate the Ninth Concubine.
Both openly and secretly revealed that the Ninth Princess made it up in order to get rid of his granddaughter.
"The prince just threw the body of the old minister's granddaughter to the old minister. Now that she is dead, it's not just what the princess says..."
As he spoke, Elder Xu Ge pretended to wipe away his tears.
Beside, a few senior ministers also persuaded: "Ge Lao Mo is sad, Miss Xu will not die in vain, the emperor is wise and wise, and will definitely make decisions for her."
"Yes, the emperor committed the same crime as a concubine's daughter, not to mention..."
What's more, the Ninth Prince and the others are not emperors
Xiao Ting was a little speechless, these old men simply turned black and white, "Hey, I said old man, your granddaughter came to kill me, she died, my concubine hasn't settled with you yet, you sued me first, do you think that if you put a high hat on the emperor, he will turn to you?"
"Are you stupid? In terms of closeness, my concubine's husband is the emperor's younger brother. Are you as stupid as you?"
Everyone: "..."
Emperor: "...", is this when he doesn't exist
Or should he be biased
Therefore, the emperor felt that the fire was enough, so he coughed lightly twice, and asked: "My dear friends, get up first, and talk slowly if you have something to say."
Then, he looked at the Ninth Prince again, "Ninth Brother, now that everyone is here, can you speak now?"
In the morning, I hurriedly recruited him into the palace because I wanted him to explain what happened yesterday, so that I could think of countermeasures first.
After all, there is a saying that Xiao Ting said is right.
In terms of closeness, of course he looks towards his younger brother. Could it be that he cares about the granddaughter of a minister he has never met
