Chapter 363: Seeing With Your Own Eyes (Three Changes)
Your Majesty, the Third Prince asks to see you!"
The sound of communication suddenly came!
Everyone in the hall was taken aback.
Emperor Jiawen frowned:
"Let's just say that I have something to do now, let him go to the imperial study and wait!"
Gonggong Min wiped the sweat from his forehead:
"Your Majesty, the third prince said that things should be remembered, and I must see you immediately!"
Emperor Jiawen's face became even more ugly, and he slapped the table suddenly:
"He's getting more and more presumptuous!"
The events of the past two days have already made him full of irritability, but he didn't expect Rong Jiu to come to join in the fun.
During his time in the imperial capital, he has always been very peaceful, why is this all of a sudden?
Gonggong Min shrank for a moment, wanting to cry without tears:
"Your Majesty, the third prince said that he came today to... It's for the sake of the four princesses..."
"Oh?"
Emperor Jiawen was a little surprised, and his brows furrowed.
"He and Zhen Zhen have never had much contact... What's going on today?"
The queen on the side was "groaning" in her heart, and a trace of uneasiness appeared.
The last time Rong Jin was under house arrest, it was because Rong Jiu sued in front of His Majesty, and today he came, I don't know what idea he had in mind!
She persuaded with some concern:
"Your Majesty, the so-called family ugliness should not be publicized. It's better not to make a big deal about Zhenzhen's disappearance, right? Whether it's for the royal family or Zhenzhen, it's better to investigate and deal with it... If the third prince is brought in again, I'm afraid it won't be easy to clean up..."
Jiawendi thought for a moment, but shook his head:
"Rong Jiu's personality has always been calm, since he dares to come, he must really know something. ”
As he spoke, he raised his hand at Gonggong Min.
"Let him in. ”
"Yes!"
Gonggong Min hurriedly went outside the hall and asked Rong Jiu to come in.
The queen bit her lip secretly, and somehow her heart became more nervous.
Soon, Rong Jiu strode in.
He has been fighting on the battlefield all year round, and although he is only twenty years old now, he is younger than Rong Jin, but he has a strong physique and a strong body.
Although he was wearing a brocade robe, he still couldn't hide the evil spirit of the generals on his body.
That's the breath that can only be experienced after experiencing life and death on the battlefield.
Rong Jiu's gaze quickly swept across the hall, staying on the queen for an extra moment.
The queen's heart was beating violently when he saw it, and she quickly turned her eyes away.
"Erchen has seen his father and the queen mother. ”
Rong Jiu stood still in the main hall, clasped his hands into fists, and saluted Emperor Jiawen and the empress.
Emperor Jiawen didn't go around the bush, and asked straight to the point:
"There is no need to pay attention to these false courtesies. You said earlier that you know something about Rong Zhen, but is it true?"
Rong Jiu's head:
"The son asks to see his father today, and that's why. ”
Emperor Jiawen sat up straight:
"Speak quickly!"
Rong Jiu's gaze fell on Chu Ning:
"Erchen was outside before, and I heard that my father seemed to be planning to imprison Lord Chu Ning?"
Emperor Jiawen didn't know why, but he didn't deny it: "Not bad." “
Rong Jiu shook his head:
"Father must not do this. You are like this, but you have greatly wronged Lord Chu Ning! Erchen can confirm that Lord Chu Ning has nothing to do with this matter!"
As soon as the words came out, not only Emperor Jiawen and the Empress, but even Chu Ning was shocked.
This... Rong Jiulai, actually speaking for him?
Chu Ning quickly recalled in his mind, he didn't seem to have much intersection with the third prince...
In this kind of crisis moment, whoever is involved is in trouble, and others can't avoid it, how can he-
"Rong Jiu, do you know what you're talking about?"
Emperor Jiawen's expression instantly became serious, and his voice was full of majesty.
Rong Jiu's expression remained unchanged:
"Erchen knows. In fact, not only Lord Chu Ning, but even Chu Liuyue had nothing to do with this matter. “
The queen finally couldn't hold back:
"Third prince, do you know that Lu Yun has found Zhenzhen's hairpin in Chu Ning's house! The evidence is conclusive and cannot be denied! Why are you speaking for his father and daughter like this now!?"
Rong Jiu showed a meaningful smile on his face, looked at the queen, and said slowly:
"Queen Mother, is that hairpin really Rong Zhen falling into Lord Chu Ning's house?"
The queen's heart suddenly skipped a beat:
"Y-What did you say!?"
"I heard that Lord Lu Yun led people to search at that time, and Lord Chu Ning's family... As we all know, after severing relations with the Chu family, Lord Chu Ning and Chu Liuyue's father and daughter have been living in the new house, and they have not even invited their subordinates. During the search, only Lord Chu Ning was there.
If someone deliberately brought this hairpin over and lied that it was found there, who would be able to find it? Even if Lord Chu Ning has three heads and six arms, I'm afraid he won't be able to keep an eye on everyone, right?"
Emperor Jiawen's expression changed slightly.
What Rong Jiu said is not unreasonable.
The queen's hand secretly tightened the armrest of the chair:
"The third prince, this hairpin was found in the backyard, and many guards at that time can testify, are they all lying?"
Rong Jiu paused, and suddenly asked:
"Queen Mother, I wonder if what you have in your hand is the hairpin you found in Lord Chu Ning's house?"
The queen was flustered by what he said, and when she heard him ask this, she nodded unconsciously.
"Yes, that's it. ”
"That's it. ”
The look on Rong Jiu's face became even more intriguing.
"This hairpin is delicate and gorgeous, and it is very eye-catching. Even if Erchen is standing here, he can still see it at a glance from such a distance. I don't know if Lord Chu Ning and Chu Liuyue are blind, so they can't see this hairpin and deliberately leave it in the courtyard. ”
The queen retorted a little panicked: "Maybe, maybe Chu Liuyue was too flustered at that time, so she didn't notice it?"
"Queen Mother, what you just said is that this hairpin was found in the backyard, and many guards have seen it with their own eyes. Why do you say that you are now talking about corners?"
Rong Jiuyun's light words made the queen stop abruptly.
The entire hall suddenly fell into a dead silence!
Chu Ning's expression was slightly condensed:
"Your Majesty, Weichen was in the front yard at the time, and the guards were in the backyard, but I really didn't see them find the hairpin. ”
Emperor Jiawen stared at the empress, his gaze gradually becoming cold.
"Queen, what else do you want to say?"
"The concubine, the concubine is just a momentary gaffe!" the queen hurriedly got up and knelt down, "Your Majesty, the concubine has been staying in the palace and has never gone out, nor has she seen the scene at that time, so naturally I don't know what is going on." The concubine just now, just just a slip of the tongue!"
Rong Jiu glanced at her lightly, as if he was smiling.
"Queen Mother, it seems that this matter really has nothing to do with you?"
"Of course not! Zhen Zhen is the daughter of Bengong, and now that she is missing, Bengong is naturally the most anxious!"
A flash of resentment flashed in the queen's eyes.
Now she can see that Rong Jiu is here today, and she plans to pull her into the water completely!
She raised her head and looked at Emperor Jiawen anxiously:
"Your Majesty, what the concubine said is true! Situ Xingchen saw with his own eyes that Zhen Zhen was with Chu Liuyue before he disappeared! She can testify!"
