Prosperous Concubine

Chapter 749 The truth of the matter (1)
"There's no need to go to the princess mansion, the princess is right in front!"

Duan Zixi followed Mu Yutang's direction, and saw a beautiful woman walking out of Linjiang Tower gracefully holding the maid's hand. She was wearing a long lake blue dress, with a beautiful face and bright eyes. Like a pearl, it is cordial yet majestic.

"She is Princess Yaohua?" Duan Zixi was skeptical, Xiao Yaohua was nearly 40 years old, but that woman looked like she was only 28-[-].

"True fake!" When Mu Yutang saw Xiao Yaohua for the first time, she was also a little surprised by her youth.

The Hundred Flowers Festival is held every year. Although the nobles don’t participate, they will watch the excitement in the private room. Mu Yutang just saw the maid next to Princess Yaohua in the corridor, and knew that she was in the Linjiang Tower. She didn’t expect that they were going to Looking for someone, she walked out.

Seeing Xiao Yaohua get into the soft sedan chair and prepare to go home, Duan Zixi hastily walked over: "Princess, wait a minute!"

"Who?" The guards yelled angrily, and blocked Duan Zixi with a slash of their long swords, their eyes were full of coldness and guard.

Duan Zixi said proudly: "I am Duan Zixi of Baihu Kingdom, please see your Princess Yaohua, go and report." Qinglong Kingdom's capital is very peaceful, and there are many secret guards around him, so he is not afraid of revealing his identity.

The guard was taken aback. As a guard of the Princess Mansion, he knew the royal families of all countries well. He knew that Duan was the surname of the White Tiger Kingdom, and the current emperor of the White Tiger Kingdom was Duan Zixi...

A servant girl stepped forward and gently kissed her body: "Mr. Duan, please come with your servant girl!"

Duan Zixi nodded, pushed aside the guard's long sword, and strode to the soft sedan chair.

The maid gently opened the sedan chair curtain, Xiao Yaohua's beautiful face appeared, and she looked at Duan Zixi without any trace, only to see that his face was handsome and youthful, but his gestures were elegant and noble, which only the royal family possessed, judging by his age , he is indeed the new little emperor of the White Tiger Kingdom: "I don't know what the White Emperor is asking me for?"

Duan Zixi said with a smile: "There is something I want to ask the princess!"

Xiao Yaohua frowned puzzled: "What's the matter?"

"It's the princess..."

"The White Emperor wanted to ask, does the Princess know a man named Shen He?" Mu Yutang stepped forward and interrupted Duan Zixi with a smile.

"Shen He?" Princess Yaohua flashed something quickly in her eyes, and said in a low voice: "I used to know each other!"

Mu Yutang's eyes froze: "Then where is she now?"

"Dead! Suicide by taking poison!" Xiao Yaohua looked at Mu Yutang lightly, Duan Zixi: "What else do you want to ask?"

Mu Yutang's gaze sank, and she said in a low voice, "What is the reason for her suicide?"

"Rebuked the first emperor, and was sentenced to be hanged. She was not willing to be humiliated, and committed suicide by taking poison!" Xiao Yaohua's soft voice was low and deep, without any emotion.

Mu Yutang raised her eyebrows lightly: "Why did she reprimand the late emperor?" Shen He is a well-known lady who is well-educated and reasonable. If she dared to offend the emperor and reprimand the emperor, something very special must have happened.

Xiao Yaohua's eyes were deep: "16 years ago, King Chen rebelled. Shen He's husband was a major general under King Chen's command. He was implicated and sentenced to death. Shen He believed that her husband was innocent, and reprimanded the emperor for being blinded, black and white, right and wrong. ..."

"Nonsense, my mother was obviously poisoned to death by you, you don't want to shirk responsibility!" An angry shout sounded, and a slender and plain figure flew over like an arrow from the string, and a dagger in his hand brought a cold The cold light stabbed directly at Xiao Yaohua!
The corner of Xiao Yaohua's mouth curled into a sneer, she raised her hand to grab the hilt of the dagger, and squeezed it suddenly, only to hear the sound of 'Dang', the blade broke and fell to the ground, she waved her bare hand, and hit the woman's chest hard , the woman flew upside down five or six meters away, and fell heavily to the ground, her brows were wrinkled, her whole body was in pain, and she was struggling to stand up, but she saw more than a dozen guards walking up to her in a hurry, pulling out their long swords. When it reached her neck: "Don't move!"

The woman was wearing a plain long dress with beautiful colorful flowers embroidered on it, and a garland of flowers on her delicate hair. It was the wounded Fairy of Hundred Flowers just now. The veil that covered her face slowly fell off, revealing A beautiful face.

"You are... Shen He's daughter!" Xiao Yaohua looked at her familiar face with shock in her eyes.

"That's right, you killed my parents 16 years ago. I'm here to seek revenge on you today. Pity me as an orphan. I'm weak and weak. I'm not your opponent. If you capture me, I will kill you. It's up to you." The woman stared at Xiao Yaohua, her eyes were full of arrogance, and the way she looked at death as if she were at home was admirable.

Xiao Yaohua's eyes were dim, her eyelids drooped, and she remained silent!
The guards of the Princess Mansion dispersed the pedestrians, covering the soft sedan chairs with their backs to their backs, and the common people stood on the side of the street, looking in from a distance through the gap: what happened?
Mu Yutang's cold eyes swept over the elegant and composed Xiao Yaohua, and landed on the woman: "Shen He reprimanded the emperor for being sentenced to death, how can Princess Yaohua be blamed for her death?"

"Back then, after my mother was imprisoned, the family uncles came up with the strategy of Li Daitao's death, and let the death row inmates be sentenced instead of my mother. My mother could have been quietly released from prison, concealed her name, and left the country. However, Xiao Yaohua went to the prison and used poison. Poisoned my mother to death!" The woman stared at Xiao Yaohua, with a sharp cold light in her pupils, wishing she could swallow her alive.

Mu Yutang looked at her with raised eyebrows: "As far as I know, those who offend the emperor will be sent to death row. The security there is so strict that even a fly cannot fly out. No matter how powerful your uncles are, it is impossible Rescue your mother, she will die!"

"So what? My mother died at the hands of Xiao Yaohua, she is my enemy!" The woman shouted angrily, her eyes bursting with hatred.

Mu Yutang raised her eyebrows, and said leisurely: "Your mother has already been sentenced to death, why should Princess Yaohua poison her to bring trouble to herself? From my point of view, Princess Yaohua poisoned your mother not on purpose, she just Good intentions to do bad things!"

Xiao Yaohua's eyes froze, she suddenly looked up at Mu Yutang, and blurted out: "How do you know?"

Mu Yutang smiled: "When she accused the princess, there was no panic, loss, or hatred on the princess's face, but there was infinite sadness and remorse. It can be seen that the princess didn't intend to poison Shen He. Shen He is General Shen Ye. Clan sister, also considered to be the princess's clan sister, she was sentenced to be hanged, and her death is approaching, as the elder sister-in-law, you went to prison to save her, but you didn't expect to kill her by accident."

The corners of Xiao Yaohua's mouth curled up into a bitter smile: "That's true. When Shen He was sentenced to death, her daughter was only two years old. I couldn't bear to see his husband and wife die, leaving her daughter unattended, so I risked entering the death row. Shen He bought a pack of fake death pills, and wanted her to escape by fake death, but there is a taboo in fake death pills, pregnant women are not allowed to take them, and Shen He didn't know that she was pregnant for a month, so she took the fake death pills according to the plan, so , that bag of life-saving fake death medicine became deadly poison, poisoning her to death!"
