Chapter 443: Brain damage

"It seems that the third princess still pays close attention to me. She even knows exactly when I leave and when I come back." Ning Muqing said with a half-smile, "But the third princess said that my whereabouts are unknown, which is really a bit of a slander. I left Chenxing Palace because a maid soiled my clothes, and a maid in charge of the Concubine Shu Palace took me to change my clothes, and someone saw me at that time."

Ning Muqing's eyes wandered around the crowd, and at a glance he found the ladies who were watching from the side.

"Madam, you were nearby and heard what the two palace maids said. I didn't lie, right?"

The ladies immediately nodded and said, "Well, what Princess Ning said is true."

Ning Muqing spread her hands, looked at the third princess and said, "So there was a reason for me to leave Chenxing Palace. After that, the maid in charge of my whereabouts testified for me, and she was also from Concubine Shu's palace. Concubine Shu had no reason." Don’t you believe in your own people?”

"Why are you talking so much? This princess is just asking you to search me. Is there anything you dare not do?" the third princess said angrily.

"It was the third princess who first told me that my whereabouts were unknown. In order not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings by others and even treat me as a prisoner, of course I have to explain this matter clearly first."

"Now that you've finished speaking, hurry over and search me after you finish speaking." The third princess said harshly.

"Then why do you have to start with me?" Ning Muqing narrowed her eyes.

Now, it’s back to the original question.

The third princess blushed in anger, "Are you trying to delay time on purpose?!"

"Of course not." Ning Muqing said innocently, "The third princess initially said that the reason why she wanted to start with me was because my whereabouts were unknown. Now that I have explained the problem clearly, the reason for starting with me is Isn’t that true?”

"You still dare to say that you are not guilty? Are you deliberately stalling for time? All of us have to be searched, and you are no exception. What difference does it make if you are the first or the second?"

The third princess said fiercely.

The difference is huge.

The most critical question is, why should she be searched?

The cloth bag that Ning Muqing carries contains a lot of medicine and silver needles. This is her long-standing habit. These life-saving things are never left behind.

Although they are just innocuous little things, and people who don't understand them don't know what they do, but if someone deliberately makes a fuss about this matter, it will still be troublesome for her.

Ning Muqing smiled and said, "In this case, why not invite the princess to be the first person to be searched and set an example for us."

"What did you say?"

When the third princess heard this, her expression made her want to kill Ning Muqing.

Ning Muqing said very calmly, "Anyway, since everyone has to be searched, there is no difference between the first one and the second one. This was what the princess said just now, right? Since the princess thinks there is no difference, why don't you please Demonstrate it yourself and lead by example, so that others can rest assured.”

"You...!" The third princess was about to choke to death.

Concubine Shu looked at Ning Muqing with cold eyes and said, "Who gave you the courage to speak to the third princess like this? Kneel down before me!"

Ning Muqing's eyes flashed coldly and she remained motionless.

Who gave her the confidence?

That is naturally given by her status as a princess!

She is the head wife of Prince Ning and is on an equal footing with the concubines in the harem. Concubine Shu has no right to make her kneel down.

The third princess is her junior, and everything she says is appropriate.

Concubine Chen said from the side, "I think there is nothing wrong with what the third princess said."

"Concubine Chen, you..."

Concubine Chen looked calm and said, "This matter has nothing to do with the third princess in the first place. It is not her turn as a junior to talk too much, and it is not her turn to make the decision. She has to jump out and intervene in this matter, and she can't hold her back.

I don’t want to argue with her anymore, but now she is the one who keeps saying that the mastermind behind the scenes is at the banquet, and she is also the one who is clamoring for everyone to be searched.

Princess Ning did nothing, didn't even say a word, but now she was asked to search her by name, and she was the first one. I really don't understand what the third princess meant. "

Concubine Shu was choked and didn't know how to reply.

How could she know what the third princess meant? It's just that all mothers want to favor their daughters.

The third princess immediately said, "I just want to help the eldest emperor find out the truth of the matter."

Concubine Chen sneered and said it nicely.

In fact, he is just using the eldest princess as a cover. Who doesn't know? "I thought it was the third princess who had a problem with her aunt, Princess Ning. She blamed Princess Ning for putting your aunt in prison, so she intended to use today's incident to take revenge."

Concubine Chen said lukewarmly.

The third princess, "..."

Concubine Shu was also a little embarrassed, "What are you talking about? The third princess is not such a confused person."

Concubine Shu would not say anything more about what happened to Zuo Ziyue. As her younger sister, she had always done mischief, and Concubine Shu had long expected that one day she would shoot herself in the foot.

If Ning Muqing hadn't imprisoned her in Jingzhao Prefecture, there would have been others.

However, the third princess has a very good relationship with Zuo Ziyue, and she also likes this aunt very much. She has said to Ning Muqing many times in secret and overtly. At this moment, Concubine Shu said this, and she was somewhat embarrassed about her face.

Concubine Chen did not give in at all, "I just find it very strange that the third princess has stayed at the banquet and has no idea what the specific situation is. Why do you insist that the mastermind behind the scenes is here?

Princess Ning, like everyone else, had never intervened in this matter, so why was she targeted by the third princess at a glance? According to common sense, the first person asked to be searched is the one with the greatest suspicion.

If I were Princess Ning, I would not agree to such an unreasonable request. It is okay to have a body search, but at least there should be a decent reason? What does your sister think? "

Concubine Shu looked stiff for a moment and didn't know how to answer this question.

Not to mention the third princess.

Mrs. Wu nodded and said, "What Concubine Chen said is very reasonable, but there should be a proper reason."

"Yeah, which normal person would agree to being searched? It's too embarrassing to save face." The lady next to him whispered.

"I wouldn't want to change it, right?"

"And there is no reason to search for Princess Ning out of nowhere."

"Today is a happy day for Concubine Su. How uncomfortable it must be for Concubine Su to encounter such a thing. Princess Ning is still Concubine Su's daughter-in-law."

"If I had known that something like this would happen, I wouldn't have come here. It's not that I don't want to give Concubine Su face, but I was pressed down and searched in the palace. Such a thing is really shameless! If word spread, what will happen to others? Look at us, we didn’t do anything wrong.”

The request made by the third princess was unreasonable in the first place. Just because she had a high status and was a princess, and she also agreed to be searched along with the others, everyone really had no reason to refuse.

But everyone inevitably feels dissatisfied and even more resentful.

They received a post today to congratulate Concubine Su on her birthday. They should be guests, so they should be given some face.

Now he has become like a criminal.

Even Concubine Shu herself would not offend the ladies in the capital like this.

Now that Concubine Shu heard everyone's comments, she felt angry and resentful. She was also a little angry at the third princess, and she was very upset.

Concubine Shu gritted her teeth and glared at the third princess and said, "You child, you are quite courageous at a young age. Why do you care about this kind of thing? I know that you can't bear to see your eldest sister being bullied, so I am anxious to think about it." We want to seek justice for her, but this is not the way to seek justice!"

The third princess was about to retort, but Concubine Shu stared back, so she had to shut her mouth reluctantly.

Concubine Shu pretended to scold the third princess, and then said, "Why haven't you thought about the body search for all the ladies present? It will hurt their face. You are young and don't think carefully about such things." , why don’t you quickly apologize to all the ladies present, let’s just forget about it..."

The third princess's eyes widened immediately. She had finally brought the matter to this point and finally moved it back to its original direction. How could her mother-in-law say such an understatement and then let it go?

No!

She firmly disagrees!

"No, we can't let this matter go like this!" the third princess said anxiously.

"Have you not made enough trouble?" Concubine Shu had a headache.

"Concubine, why can't you believe me? I'm not messing around!" The third princess stamped her feet anxiously. Of course she had her own reasons, but she obviously couldn't say these words.

So the third princess could only use the eldest princess as a cover, "I am also thinking about the eldest sister now! Concubine, you see for yourself, the eldest sister has been drugged and plotted, and we don't know what the situation is now. This Tan Lin It was someone who instigated it again. If the mastermind behind this is not caught today, maybe this person will continue to attack the First Imperial Sister?"

Concubine Shu almost suspected that the third princess was out of her mind.
