The best princess

Chapter 106
Yuehua was stunned for a moment, but the queen didn't say anything else. After a while, Rongsheng came back, and whispered into Qi Yibei's ear with embarrassment. The queen asked, "Why, is there anything you can't say clearly?"

Qi Yibei dismissed Rong Sheng, and said: "This afternoon, Youran was called back to the Mo House by the teacher, saying that he had something important to discuss."

Fu Youran was taken aback for a moment, he was clearly here, what did he say that he was called away by his adoptive father... Yes, it must be that Rongsheng didn't find him, he was afraid that the queen would be angry with him, so he made up a lie and let Mo Yan Chen came out to top the bag.

Yuehua breathed a sigh of relief, and pretended to be ignorant: "So, the Crown Princess is not in the palace anymore?"

Qi Yibei's face froze, and he said impatiently: "If you haven't come back so late, there must be some delay."

The queen smiled lightly, leaned back on the chair, tilted her head slightly, and said pointedly: "Yi'er really doesn't want to take a little bit of grievance leisurely."

Fu Youran's heart warmed up, and she peeked again, Qi Yibei was leaning on the chair, his face was full of thoughts, and he attracted Rong Sheng again, whispered a few words, Rong Sheng nodded repeatedly, turned around and left.

Yuehua's face became a little ugly, she forced a smile and said, "If that's the case, shall we start the banquet?"

The queen waved her hand, "Don't be in a hurry, maybe Leisurely will be back in a while."

Yuehua glanced at the queen suspiciously, then sat down slowly, and the queen said again: "Yuehua, how long have you been in the palace?"

"Go back to your mother," Yuehua stood up again, "If you count the days before serving the prince, it will be almost six years."

"It's been six years, and you've been with the prince for more than four years?"

"Yes."

The queen sighed, "I rewarded you to the prince because I liked your gentleness and virtuousness. Unexpectedly, I would also be mistaken one day."

Yuehua was startled from the bottom of her heart, and quickly raised her head, like a frightened little white rabbit.

The queen said coldly: "I'll ask you again, what exactly did you say when you invited the princess?"

Yuehua's face turned a little pale, if she admitted that she didn't explain when she sent someone there, I'm afraid the queen would not give up easily.

The queen stared at her, "Say it."

Yuehua hesitated for a moment, and felt a little nervous, "Yuehua did explain to the Crown Princess that tonight's banquet is for the Queen's Empress to celebrate her birthday in advance."

"Who will pass the word?"

The maid next to Yuehua trembled, and hurriedly knelt down in the hall, "It's a slave."

"What did you say?"

"Servant..." The maid glanced at Yuehua, Yuehua nodded slightly, and said in a trembling voice: "The servant has faithfully conveyed Liang Di's words, and invited His Highness the Crown Princess to come to the banquet, and specifically explained that this is It's an early birthday celebration for the empress."

The queen squinted her eyes and looked at Yuehua, Yuehua straightened her back calmly, and the queen smiled faintly, "That's strange, when someone came to pass the news, I was in the princess's room, why? What you heard is not the same as what you said?"

The court lady was a little dazed, and she didn't know what to say.

Yuehua's face changed, how could such a coincidence happen.

"It was you who made an assertion and changed Yuehua's message?" The Queen spoke slowly, with a hint of a smile on her lips.

"No...servant...no..."

"Bold!" Yuehua took the lead, "How dare you make such a mistake, come and drag her out!"

As soon as the words fell, several eunuchs came up to the palace, trying to drag the maid down.

Han Mei, who was standing behind the queen, took a step forward and said loudly, "Presumptuous!"

The eunuchs quickly let go, and looked at Yuehua again, the queen picked up the tea bowl and threw it in front of Yuehua, with a "pop", the broken pieces of porcelain splashed together with the tea, and touched Yuehua's dress Up, Yuehua lowered her head and clenched her teeth, not letting herself show a trace of timidity.

The queen's face was as frosty, and Yuehua knelt on the ground with a "thump", and the eunuchs were already crying for their father and mother, begging for mercy.

The queen leaned back on the chair, "Yuehua, since you also said that it was the girl's fault, in your opinion, she caused me to misunderstand the princess, how should I deal with it?"

"It's all...it's all up to the empress."

The queen raised her willow eyebrows, "I'll let you tell!"

Yuehua's body trembled, "This servant dare not."

The queen snorted coldly, "What's the use of keeping such a useless person?"

"Yes……"

"What is it?"

Yuehua bit her lower lip, "This girl deserves to die for her crime."

The queen waved her hands without looking up, "Drag her down."

Hanmei beside her agreed, and ordered the eunuchs to do it.

The palace maid was so frightened that she yelled at Yuehua: "Di Liang, save me!"

Yuehua turned her head sideways, pursed her lips tightly and said nothing, seeing that the palace lady was about to be dragged out of the palace, a clear shout sounded from inside the palace, "Stop!"

Fu Youran rushed out from the group of court ladies, and knelt down in front of the queen, "My queen, she has suffered on behalf of others, and the crime is not fatal, so I ask my mother to spare her."

The corner of the queen's mouth slightly raised, and she glanced at Han Mei beside her. Han Mei hurriedly told the eunuchs to stop, and brought the maid back to the palace.

Fu Youran's appearance made Qi Yibei extremely happy, and also made Yuehua's face change suddenly. The rumors that the queen was present were all false, and it was probably the crown princess who knew the truth and seized the opportunity.

The queen stood up, walked in front of Fu Youran to help her up, and smiled at the court lady: "Since the princess is pleading for you, I will give you another chance."

The palace maid seemed a little overly frightened, she collapsed on the ground and sobbed for a long time before she raised her head, glanced at Yuehua resentfully, and said with tears streaming down her face: "I want to report to your empress, Emperor Liang did ask the maidservants to invite His Royal Highness the Crown Princess, but especially Please don't explain that the Empress Empress will also come today."

The queen leaned over, "What did you say?"

Dogs can also jump over the wall when they are in a hurry. At this time, turning to be a tainted witness seems to be the best way out. Hearing the court lady repeating it loudly, the queen walked slowly in front of Yuehua, shaking her head and said: "Fei'er When the incident happened, I thought you were as timid as a mouse and had no opinion, but now it seems that I was wrong."

"Empress Empress, I have something to report."

Many facts have proved that it is far from enough to be a tainted witness. If you want to be acquitted, you have to make meritorious deeds.

The queen turned sideways and asked with interest, "What's the matter?"

The maid took out a small bag from her close-fitting clothes, and opened it one by one from the left to the right. Seeing that she packed it carefully, the queen became even more interested. Even Fu Youran moved closer to the maid, and the small cloth bag was completely opened. , another paper bag was revealed, and the queen looked at her with a half-smile, "What are you hiding?"

The court lady kowtowed, and handed the paper bag to Fu Youran, "This is the medicine powder that Yuehua Liangdi poured into the prince's wine glass on the night of the flying stars. Liangdi threw the remaining half of the package of medicine powder in the In the charcoal stove, the slaves snatched some while Liang Di was not paying attention."

Yuehua frowned,

The queen gave her a suspicious look, "What's the use of keeping it?"

Fu Youran was also a little disappointed, it was almost certain that Qi Yibei was drugged, even if the court lady presented evidence now, it was just proof, the thing had already happened, so what's the point of talking about it.

The maid said sadly: "This servant is always afraid that one day she will follow the old path of Sister Wen, so she pays special attention to the actions of the master, always thinking of being more careful, and there is always a chance to save her life." But who would have thought that when something really happened , the meeting didn't even have a chance to speak, thinking of the life-and-death situation just now, the maid sobbed again.

"Who is Wenshuang?"

"Sister Wen has been serving in Qingya Garden. Di Yan Liangdi ate something unknown in the meal, and then lost her mind and lost her appearance in front of the prince. After that, Sister Wen was found drowned in the pool."

The queen nodded, only then did she have an impression.

The little maid said again: "Before Sister Wen went to Qingya Garden, she was serving in Yunlang Pavilion just like slaves and maidservants."

Yuehua's expression froze, and she said forcefully: "Pingrui, what exactly do you want to say?"

The queen tilted her head, and said slowly and softly: "She will naturally say what she wants to say, why are you so anxious?"

Pingrui's tears gathered in his eyes again, "Liangdi Yuehua is as close as sisters to us on weekdays, this slave girl would never want to think so, but the fact is so, Xue Yan and Liangdi are both very smart, how could they not know Once Sister Wen dies, both of them will be implicated and become objects of suspicion? If they understand this truth, they will not attack Sister Wen, then the death of Sister Wen..."

"Then there is someone else?" The corner of the Queen's mouth curled into a smile, "Let the two of them be enemies, and then others will have a chance to benefit from it."

Yuehua's face became paler, she knelt there motionless without saying a word.

"Yes." Pingrui said loudly: "The servant has figured out this joint, so he will pay special attention to Di Liang's behavior."

The queen took the paper bag in Fu Youran's hand, squeezed it, "What kind of medicine is this?"

"I don't know." Pingrui replied: "The prince was helped to rest in the house that day. The servant had eavesdropped by the door, but there was no sound. The servant thought Liangdi murdered the prince and was frightened to death. At this time, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince woke up again and left safely, but the servant girl thought that there must be some secrets in the powder, so she kept it close to her."
