Chapter 150 How Do I Murder?
Jing Li raised his eyes calmly, met Concubine Mei who wanted to tear his eyes away, and pursed his lips in silence.

Si Wenyue, who was on the soft couch, clearly showed a panicked and terrified look, feeling uneasy even lying there, and wanted to hide inside.

Seeing this, the emperor's eyes dimmed, and he walked forward and sat down softly beside Ruantao, and first asked the imperial physician standing beside the couch, "How is the fourth princess?"

The imperial doctor hurriedly bowed and replied, "Back to the emperor, the fourth princess woke up from a serious injury, and her body is very weak. In addition to being so frightened, it may be difficult to adjust psychologically for a while, and she will be afraid of the surroundings. In the future, she will need to be taken care of more carefully." And lead from the side, as for the injury on the head, it is getting better, but it will take a long time to heal."

The emperor nodded, and looked at Si Wenyue. The little girl had a pale face, her eyes moved wildly, but she didn't dare to look at him.

He frowned and lowered his voice, "Don't be afraid, Yue'er, it's the father. Do you remember the attack that night? Do you know who attacked you?"

Si Wenyue trembled her lips, and it took her a long time before her eyes turned red, "...Father, wow, wow!"

Concubine Mei hastily stepped forward, leaned over and hugged Si Wenyue halfway in her arms to comfort her, tears streaming down her eyes, "Your Majesty, it's Jingli! Yue'er told the concubine herself, there is an imperial doctor who can testify! Yue'er At this moment, my emotions are unstable, and I have to keep recalling the process of being attacked that night, my Yue'er is only five years old, Your Majesty!"

For a moment, the entire inner room was full of crying and whimpering, and the inquiry was interrupted for a while.

Jing Li stood behind the emperor, looking indifferently at the scene in front of him.

Concubine Mei's mourning and Si Wenyue's frightened wail did not cause any disturbance in his eyes.

From beginning to end, it was like an outsider.

He could hear the buzzing whispers on the other side of the screen, and after Si Wenyue's cry came out, the whispers became louder and louder.

He lowered his eyes, hiding the sneer and coldness in his eyes.

It seems that no matter where, when and where, he is an annoying existence.

Everyone around him wants to put him to death.

And most of the time, he doesn't even understand at all, what exactly is in him that hinders other people's eyes and blocks their way.

Turning his head slightly, he looked out through the carved wooden window of the side hall, and settled in an unknown void.

A beautiful and cool face appeared in his mind.Either the eyebrows are raised slightly, or the eyes are rolling, when looking at him, there is always gentleness and warmth.

He misses her so much.

No one likes him, only she wants him.

The crying in the room gradually died down, only the small sound of the girl choking and hiccupping remained.

"Yue'er, Father is here. If you remember what happened that day, please tell Father." The emperor frowned very tightly, and asked again calmly. In fact, he knew the result in his heart, but he still wanted to hear this favorite song. daughter, said personally, "Father wants to hear from you, the truth."

The word "truth" bit out emphatically made Concubine Mei, who was holding Si Wenyue, tremble almost invisible, and then raised her eyes, her eyes were red, "What does the emperor mean by this, do you think the concubine is lying? Or do you think Yue'er will lie? Do you think we slander Jingli! Yue'er is the confidant's heart, and the concubine only wishes to bring the murderer to justice, so why would she slander a little child and let the real murderer go unpunished? !"

The emperor glanced at Concubine Mei lightly, the deepness in his eyes caused Concubine Mei's eyelids to shrink, her whole body weakened by three points, and her hand around Si Wenyue tightened unconsciously, and after Si Wenyue let out a soft cry from the pain, Only then hastily released the person.

But he couldn't summon up the courage to look at the emperor again.

She is just a concubine, because her daughter is loved by the queen mother, her status in the harem has been improved a lot, but she still has no right to speak in front of the emperor.The reason why he dared to stick his neck to confront the emperor just now was just a moment of courage.

Once that courage dissipates, it will be difficult to gather it together.

Behind the screen, the sound of footsteps came softly, and after a while, the queen, wearing a dark red phoenix robe, walked in step by step with the support of her personal nurse.

"I heard Yue'er crying just now, and my concubine was worried, so I came in to take a look. Is Yue'er okay?" After finishing speaking, she was so close that she looked at Si Wenyue carefully, and the worry between her brows dissipated slightly, "Your Majesty, This time, Yue'er survived a catastrophe, the incident of being attacked has dragged on for so long and there is still no result, it is better to have done it earlier, and it will also calm people's hearts."

After all, his eyes glanced over Jingli, and then fell on Si Wenyue, "Yue'er, your father, queen and queen are all here, you don't have to be afraid, what kind of soberness was that night, you tell it in detail, and your father will be yours!" The emperor decides for you, and will never let the thief who harmed you go."

Si Wenyue's face became even paler, and after a long time, she raised her trembling eyelashes, slowly pointed her hand at Jing Li, and said in a sharp voice, "Father, Queen Mother, Concubine Mother, it's... It's Jing Li, it's Jing Li who hit me , he wanted to kill Yue'er, it was him, he wanted to kill Yue'er!"

The harsh accusation pulled back Jing Li's thoughts, and he turned his eyes to look at Si Wenyue calmly and indifferently.

"Your Majesty, you heard what Yue'er said herself. There must be no falsehood." The queen sighed lightly, with pity in her eyes, "Poor Yue'er has suffered such a crime at such a young age. This concubine knows The emperor loves Jingli, but if he makes a mistake, he will always be punished, and now the rumors have spread outside the Kilometer Palace, if the emperor delays in making a decision, I'm afraid it will not be able to stop the people talking, and it will damage the emperor's prestige."

The emperor sat by the couch and remained silent for a long time, his face so dark that it was shocking.

He had expected such a result a long time ago, but after hearing Si Wenyue say it himself, he was still extremely disappointed in his heart.

But the situation is pressing, how should he treat Jing Li?

"Fourth princess, how did I hit you? Did I hit you in front or behind?"

The immature voice was neither fast nor slow, and there was no obvious ups and downs in the tone. Jing Li's immature voice scattered in the room.

Among the people in the inner room, only the emperor's eyes flashed a little light.

"You attacked me from behind. I saw your face when I fell down. Don't try to argue!" After the initial accusation, Si Wenyue spoke more fluently, and her weakness could not cover up the sharpness in her voice.

"Are you sure it's me you saw?" Jing Li's eyes darkened.

"It was you, it was you who smashed me! Father, it was Jing Li who smashed me!" Si Wenyue screamed while hiding in Mei Fei's arms.

"Your majesty, the matter is now clear, does the emperor still want to watch this murderer persecute Yue'er!" Concubine Mei hugged Si Wenyue distressedly, and asked angrily through gritted teeth.

There was a sneer at the corner of Jing Li's mouth, "Your Majesty, it is said that the murder weapon found by the imperial guards was a stone weighing more than five or six catties?"

"Yes." The emperor was taken aback.

"The place where the fourth princess had an accident was in the flower garden not far from the entrance of the imperial garden. The surrounding area has been cleaned up along with the snow. I can't even find a large stone. Where did I pick it up?" The big stone to commit murder?"
