Chapter 412

"Boom-thump-"

It was just dawn, and the sound of thundering drums resounded over the capital.

The common people poked their heads out of their homes one after another, and then headed towards the source of the sound of the drum.

In the imperial palace, Cheng Shengquan, who was getting up and wearing a dragon robe, also heard the sound of the drum, and he sneered: "Who is beating the drum to sue the imperial court?"

A eunuch trotted in, and he looked flustered: "Reporting to the Emperor, the one who beat the drum to sound the grievance is... Princess Rui."

"What did you say? What is she making trouble here? The dispatched palace servants invited her in, and then Prince Rui."

The eunuch looked hesitant: "Your Majesty...Princess Rui rolled over the pegboard like a commoner...It seems that she has been wronged too much."

absurd!

She is a super princess, what grievances can she have?What a shame!It's like losing the face of the royal family.

Cheng Shengquan flicked his sleeves and said coldly, "I want to see how she treats!"

……

palace gate
There is a long bloodstain on the white slate floor tiles, which seems to have merged into a stream.

Looking along the creek, there is a woman in white clothes. She is covered in blood, and the blood drips down the hem of her clothes to the ground.

In front of her was a two-meter-high red lacquered drum. She was holding a drum hammer in her hand, and she swung it with all her strength.

The gate of the palace was surrounded by common people, they all stood three meters away and watched, when someone recognized that this was Princess Rui, they all lowered their heads and started whispering.

"What's going on? Why did Princess Rui come to beat the drums to complain?"

"I don't know, but didn't Princess Danyang die a while ago? Could it be because of this incident?"

"It's not that he accidentally fell into the water and died, so why..."

"Royal affairs are too complicated... don't discuss it."

"Prince Rui is here!"

"..."

The crowd slowly fell silent and gave way, Prince Rui strode in, his face was livid: "Princess! What are you doing?"

Princess Rui's hands kept moving, and Prince Rui wanted to go over and hug her down, but Princess Rui turned around and pressed the golden hairpin to her throat: "If you dare to go one step further, I will judge myself here."

Prince Rui didn't dare to act rashly for a moment, his expression was stiff, and he tried his best to look kind: "My concubine, let's go back and talk about what's going on, please stop making trouble, okay? So many people look like what are you talking about."

make trouble?
She didn't make trouble, she was defending Danyang.

In heaven, we must be able to see it.

"The eldest princess is here!"

Cheng Huayi got off the chariot, and the guards pushed the people away to open the way for her. She walked in gracefully, but when she looked at Princess Rui, there was a hint of hostility in her beautiful eyes.

"Emperor's sister-in-law why? Let the people see your own jokes in the public?"

When Princess Rui saw Cheng Huayi, she wanted to strangle her to death. The bones of her hand holding the gold hairpin turned white, and she smiled miserably: "Indeed, it's just a joke. Are you right? Cheng Huayi." She looked at Prince Rui. : "And you, Cheng Xiao."

What could happen between this eldest princess and Prince Rui?

As soon as Princess Rui's ambiguous words came out, the crowd of people exploded, no matter how low their voices were, they still reached Cheng Huayi's ears.

Her face turned cold, and a trace of panic rose in her heart.

She intuited that Princess Rui knew something, Qingluo was rescued yesterday, even though the guards told her that Qingluo would not be able to survive that night, but she felt uneasy.

It wasn't until dawn that she heard the news that Princess Rui was beating the drums to sue the Imperial Court, she tidied up and rushed here non-stop.

The guess in her heart was that Princess Rui would still hold on to Danyang's death, so if it was this matter, it would be easy to handle.

She just insisted that Danyang died by mistake and had nothing to do with Cheng Huayi.

As soon as her thoughts came to her mind, the heavy palace door opened, and along with the words "The emperor has arrived", a bright yellow body came into everyone's eyes.

Behind Cheng Sheng's body are Empress Shen and Empress Dowager Chu.

"Long live the emperor, long live, long live."

All the people knelt on the ground, Prince Rui and Cheng Huayi saluted, but Princess Rui stood up straight.

"Be flat."

After Cheng Shengquan finished speaking, he looked at Princess Rui, and he eased his expression: "Sister Rui, why is this? If you have anything to say, just tell me, let's go inside and talk slowly." He looked sideways and whispered: "Come on. People, invite Prince Rui and Princess Rui to enter the palace."

"No need." Princess Rui lowered the hand holding the golden hairpin, enduring the pain in her body, and leaned on the drum: "Let's talk here, I'm afraid that if I have a life, I won't return!"

"Presumptuous! What are you talking about? Will we still harm you when we enter the palace?"

This time it was Empress Dowager Chu who spoke. Her well-maintained face was full of majesty, and she really looked like that.

Princess Rui looked around at her and Prince Rui.

She smiled lowly, probably only she knew how dirty the Queen Mother Chu was under her majestic appearance, if the first emperor knew about it, he might not even close his eyes.

Princess Rui stared straight at Empress Dowager Chu: "Who knows if you will harm me? After all, Danyang was killed by your good daughter. I, a mother, will go with her soon."

"You don't want to spout blood! Danyang died accidentally, don't push everything on Hua'er." Empress Dowager Chu was so angry that she wanted to go up and tear Princess Rui's mouth.This matter was obviously suppressed, why did she still bring it up and say it in front of so many people!

"Yes, Sister Rui, you must pay attention to evidence in everything. You come here as soon as you open your mouth. It's my reputation. If there is anything I can do to you, why don't we go in and talk? It's more or less uncomfortable outside. convenient."

Princess Rui only answered her previous sentence: "Is there evidence? I have it."

"Cheng Huayi, Cheng Huayi, you have the honor and the power given by your mother, queen, and brother, why do you want to harm my Danyang, you are really snake-hearted, your mother is a villain who helps the evil, and countless people have been killed by you in recent years , you have a good mother who will hide it from you, you mother and daughter are absolutely perfect."

"Do you think you put a spell on my family's Danyang two years ago to kill her? Do you really think I don't know? You are the only smart person in the world who treats everyone like a fool?"

Princess Rui could no longer hide her hatred, she wept blood: "Don't you want evidence? Your male favorite Qingluo is the best evidence!"

When Cheng Huayi heard the word Qingluo, her expression finally changed slightly, and the uneasiness in her heart was gradually magnified.

Princess Rui didn't look at her anymore, instead she took out a blood book from her bosom, and held it up high: "This is a pleading written by me with my own blood, and it contains all of Cheng Huayi's crimes. I only ask the emperor to read it. Afterwards, Cheng Huayi will be killed, and the minister's wife will avenge Danyang's murder."

"presumptuous!"

Empress Dowager Chu blushed with anger, she looked at Cheng Shengquan: "Your Majesty, no, this poisonous woman has lost her daughter and is already insane, please ask the Emperor to send someone to imprison this poisonous woman immediately, so as not to damage the reputation of the royal family!"
