Ling Mu'er didn't understand where the emperor's anger came from.
"Your Majesty, this is the evidence that proves that the Seventh Prince is the one behind the scenes of cultivating the army privately. Let me explain." Ling Mu'er picked up the badge, and planned to hand it to the Emperor.
Unexpectedly, the emperor was even more furious, he stood up while coughing, pointed at Ling Mu'er's face, and had the urge to execute her on the spot.
Seeing this, Su Ce hurriedly protected Ling Mu'er behind his back, "Your Majesty, forgive me, there is some misunderstanding here, please let me know!"
The emperor who originally wanted to ask someone to take Ling Mu'er away thought about it. He was not in the capital during this period, and he really didn't know the reason. After taking a few deep breaths, he calmed down.
"Ling Mu'er, open it and see what is written on the waist card." The emperor said, his eyes fixed on the waist card, as if there was a huge secret hidden in it.
Ling Muer and Su Ce glanced at each other. She originally wanted to take out the dagger hidden in her boots, but Su Ce snatched the badge away first, and when he approached her, he used a knife that only two people could. He heard the voice, "I met the Holy Majesty but carried a murder weapon. Do you want to come in vertically and go out horizontally?"
After finishing speaking, I saw that Su Ce's palm was so strong that he had already split his waist card in half.
Ling Mu'er immediately picked up the severed waist card, it was no different from the one that Shangguan Shaochen chopped off when he was in Rongcheng. The severed waist card had the seal of the Seventh Prince's Mansion in the middle.
"Please look, Your Majesty, the seal of the Seventh Prince's Mansion is engraved on this waist card. Those soldiers are all the Seventh Prince's people, and it is the Seventh Prince who is training soldiers privately!" Ling Muer walked up to the Emperor again, and categorically complained .
The emperor just sneered and took the waist card away, and saw that he split the broken waist card into two again, revealing other colors inside, and the emperor handed one of the engraved parts to Ling Muer , "Look carefully, but you still have something to say!"
Seeing the emperor's aggressive appearance, Ling Mu'er felt puzzled. She took the waist badge and carefully looked at the words on it, only to see that there was a very small word '翰' engraved inside.
And Shangguan Shaochen's real name is Qin Chenyi.
"It's impossible, it was framed, it must be!"
Ling Mu'er tightly held the fragments of her waist card, wishing she could rush to Qin Xuanting immediately and ask if it was his fault.
But soon, she suddenly understood, no wonder all the soldiers in the cave disappeared, but two tokens were picked up. This was arranged by Qin Xuanting in advance, for this moment of the day!
"Your Majesty, please be aware that Shao Chen will never seek rebellion. All of this is caused by the Seventh Prince." Ling Muer immediately knelt on the ground without thinking, "When Shao Chen defeated the enemy and returned to the capital, He was assassinated on the way, and he belonged to the Seventh Prince; the Seventh Prince was already jealous of Shao Chen, when we went to Rongcheng to discover his secret, he thought of this trick to frame Shao Chen, and asked the Emperor to send someone to investigate thoroughly!"
The emperor sneered again, "Framed? Hmph, you said the seventh framed the second, but the seventh said that the second framed him. Tell me, which one of you should I trust?"
Seeing the flash of cunning in the emperor's eyes, Ling Mu'er knew that the pill he gave had worked, at least the emperor would not fall into chaos again in a short time.
"Your majesty, who is Shao Chen and what is his temperament? You clearly understand that if she wants to seek rebellion, why wait until today? Besides, if there are no specific reasons, how could Shao Chen agree to take that seat? You have always known it. "
The emperor nodded, "That's right, my prince, how could I not understand, but do you think this account book alone can kill my prince?"
The more Ling Muer heard this, the more she felt that something was wrong, but Su Ce understood the emperor's intention immediately.
"Your Majesty is wise. Your Majesty has long known that the Second Prince is innocent. Please tell me clearly what this humble minister should do to clear up the Second Prince's grievances!"
Hearing Su Ce's words, Ling Muer looked at the emperor belatedly.
She was too excited just now, and suddenly forgot to look at the person in front of her. Although the emperor in front of her was very ill and might die at any time, how could she forget that he is a person with deep thoughts.
He had already seen the disposition of each emperor clearly, so how could he not understand Shangguan Shaochen's character, the only explanation is that Qin Xuanting's evidence is too sufficient, even him as the emperor can't do anything about it.
"Although I am the emperor, it is because I am the emperor that I cannot engage in favoritism! Of course I believe that Chen'er is innocent, but Ting'er first joined all the ministers to participate in Chen'er's book. How is treason a trivial matter? And you two Without evidence, how can I help him?" The emperor sighed deeply, as if he had touched something, he began to cough violently again.
Seeing this, Ling Mu'er immediately took out a silver needle to give him a needle, "Your Majesty, do you feel better now?"
"Your rejuvenation is indeed a well-deserved reputation, but my life is at the end of my life, and I cannot escape the fate of life and death." The emperor waved his hand, signaling her not to do any more useless work. The ministers of the Seven Unions coerced me to kill the traitor who was plotting to usurp the throne, and I had no choice but to give you ten days."
With that said, the emperor looked at Su Ce, "With the help of the virtuous king, I believe you will find evidence as soon as possible."
Only then did Ling Muer understand the emperor's difficulties.
She nodded, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, Mu'er will find the evidence as soon as possible to clean up Shao Chen's innocence. As for the Seventh Prince, I will make him pay for his actions!"
Before Concubine Min Gui came back, Su Ce and Ling Muer left the palace.
"How can I help you?" Seeing Ling Muer's sullen and tense state, he felt very distressed.
Only then did she pull back from her thoughts, and Ling Muer raised her head and smiled at him, "No, I'll find my own way."
Seeing that she was nervous but pretending to be relaxed, Su Ce really wanted to grab her shoulders and tell her that no matter what happened, he was behind her.
But he knew that if he did that, he would put pressure on her.
"Okay, whenever you need my king's help, just ask." Su Ce said very relaxed and proud.
"Thank you, Su Ce!" Ling Mu'er was sincerely grateful. Without his help today, she would not have met the emperor easily, nor would she have understood the difficulties of the emperor, and she would not have known that Qin Xuanting is so overshadowed by the current Qin Xuanting. .
"Shall I take you back to the Marquis of Ningguo?" Su Ce said, a carriage had already come in front of him.
Ling Mu'er did not refuse, but after getting into the carriage, she looked at him cautiously and said, "I want to go back to Ling's residence."
"No!" Su Ce refused without thinking, but he quickly saw Ling Muer's disappointed look.
"I didn't mean to stop you, it's just that you appeared near the Ling Mansion today, which has attracted Qin Xuanting's attention. Presumably there are already many organs around the Ling Mansion at this moment. Once you are arrested, then Shangguan Shaochen will be completely unable to clear up his grievances." , so you can't take risks."
Listening to Su Ce's explanation, Ling Muer sighed sadly again, "But my father, mother, uncle and grandma are all in his hands, I'm worried..."
"I'll go for you!"
Before Ling Muer finished speaking, she saw Su Ce's firm eyes.
Before she could recover, Su Ce had already reported an address to the coachman, "I will take you back to Ningguohou's Mansion first, and I will go to Ling's Mansion to visit your family in person later, and then send someone to inform you of the news. Don't worry, Qin Xuanting I dare not hurt your family without Shangguan Shaochen being convicted."
Ling Muer believed Su Ce's words, her parents would not be in danger, she was just worried and wanted to go back to reassure them.
But she also didn't want Su Ce to take risks.
"Su Ce, you have the same old grievances as the Seventh Prince. When he sees you in the Ling Mansion, he will not let you go. You..."
"So what if there are old grievances?" Su Ce didn't pay attention to Qin Xuanting at all, "He has the ability to send me to death row, but if he doesn't have the ability, he will have to watch me ride on his head !"
Not long after, the carriage stopped in front of Ningguo Hou's Mansion. Nangong Yizhi had been waiting at the door for a long time, and when he saw her appear, he hurriedly brought her in.
Su Ce didn't get out of the carriage, and went to Ling Mansion even faster.
Seeing that Ling Mu'er was intact, Nangong Yizhi breathed a sigh of relief, "My good sister-in-law, let me tell you where you have been all day, it will be dark, if you don't come back, the concubine mother will have to kill you I can't, it's a good thing you're back, that was King Xian's carriage just now?"
Knowing that Nangong Yizhi was not as simple as he seemed on the surface, but in fact he had a delicate mind, Ling Muer didn't intend to hide it, and told him everything that happened today.
"Yizhi, since the emperor asked us to find evidence, we must hurry up, but there are no clues in Pingcheng and Rongcheng, and there will be no usable news when we return to the capital, so I plan to send Liu Changyu to the emperor tomorrow In front of him, let him personally identify Qin Xuanting's establishment and conceal the matter of the Hero Pavilion."
"Okay." After hearing that Ling Mu'er met the emperor, Nangong Yizhi didn't hesitate, "I'll make arrangements now. You and I will take Liu Changyu to court tomorrow. Why don't you go to bed earlier as it's getting late today?" , Mother Concubine has arranged a room for you, shall I ask the maid to take you there?"
Ling Mu'er nodded, and followed the maid to the guest room, but after confirming the location of the room, she immediately returned to the gate of Ning Guohou's mansion.
Su Ce made an agreement with her that he would come back as soon as possible to tell her the current situation of the Ling Mansion, and she couldn't let him run away.
Sure enough, an hour later, a familiar whistle sounded outside the door, and Ling Muer immediately opened the door, "Zitong, why is it you?"
Looking behind him, she was sure that there was no sign of Su Ce. Ling Muer's heart instantly became tense, "But what happened to Su Ce?"
Zitong was surprised that Ling Muer was the first one who cared about her master instead of her family. He was very relieved, his tone was not as cold as before, and he returned to the old respect, "Second princess, don't worry, master It's okay, although I fought with the Seventh Prince's people in the Ling Mansion, you know my master's skills, and there are not many people in the capital who can hurt him. It's just that I'm worried that I will be targeted by the Seventh Prince's people when I go to Ningguohou's Mansion many times. In order not to cause trouble to the Ningguo Hou Mansion, the subordinates were asked to report."
Zitong handed Ling Mu'er a reassuring smile, "Don't worry, Second Princess, everything in Ling's mansion is safe, and your family members are all unharmed, and the Lord asked me to tell you that although Ling's mansion is surrounded by heavy soldiers, seven The prince will never dare to act recklessly. Therefore, if you hear any news about your family being injured in the future, don't panic, the Xianwang Palace will investigate the truth for you as soon as possible."
After hearing all this, Ling Muer only had two words in her heart: touching.
She didn't know how to be grateful when she opened her mouth, she could only cup her fists together, "Tell him for me, Ling Muer, thank you King Xian!"
