Wei Ze Cheng hurriedly stepped forward and bowed, "How would I dare? Since Your Highness can testify, it is impossible for Lady Ning to go to the Yun residence to commit murder three days ago. Someone must have framed her! I will report this to His Majesty. Catch the culprit who framed Lady Ning behind the scenes! "
Who would not believe it? Who would dare to not believe it?
Even if his identity was not mentioned. Although this Crown Prince had problems with his eyes and body, he was the Xiahou Qing who had defeated the entire Privy Council all those years ago. His Majesty had praised him as an 'unparalleled talent' after he offered a single plan to force the Xiongnu to retreat. At that time, all the civil and military officials were shocked. If he was not there, it would have been hard to believe. That was eleven years ago, when he was only ten years old!
A large group of officials came in a grandiose manner, and in less than two hours, they returned in a grandiose manner. The onlookers smacked their lips as if they hadn't had enough yet. They gradually dispersed in all directions, bringing along today's great excitement to find someone to share this wonderful topic of conversation. There were also many young girls who did not want to give up. They tiptoed and desperately looked into the mysterious carriage. Then, they were slapped back home by their parents and brothers.
Ning Shu pressed her right hand against her left hand and raised it to her forehead. She politely bowed to Xiahou Qing in the carriage and said in a sweet voice, "Today, I thank Your Highness for telling the truth and proving my innocence. I am so grateful that I shed tears. In the next life, I will repay your kindness. "
The person in the carriage supported his chin with his hand and sneered. It seemed that he was mocking her for deliberately pretending to be obedient. Repaying kindness in the next life? What about in this life? Wasn't it just pulling her aside? This woman's heart was full of twists and turns.
He had fulfilled his promise today and did not want to waste time here. He said faintly, "Let's go."
Hui Mo immediately waved his horsewhip and smiled at Ning Shu before driving the carriage away. Since this Lady Ning had reached an agreement with his master and promised to help him find the culprit, then they were in cahoots. Their previous grudges were written off!
Watching Xiahou Qing's carriage leave, Xiao Yunyi, who had been watching from the side, immediately walked to Ning Shu's side and grabbed her hand. "Shu 'er, how did you get to know him?" His expression was awkward and arrogant.
What do you mean by coincidental meeting at three different times of the day, holding candlelight and chatting all night until dawn? Every word made him burn with rage.
Ning Shu calmly turned around to avoid his hand and walked to her mother's side. She smiled at him and said, "Your Highness has misunderstood. I'm not familiar with His Highness the Crown Prince. Everything is just a coincidence. I think Your Highness is kind-hearted and doesn't want to see an innocent person being wronged, so you came to speak up for justice. "
"Then why did you go to Qi San's tomb so late at night? Don't tell me you still … "Xiao Yunyi was still young and had not learned to be as shrewd as he was back then, so he immediately asked.
Could it be that she was still thinking about that dead person? It shouldn't be like this. Before Shu 'er became of marriageable age, the two of them were so harmonious and could be considered childhood sweethearts. At that time, Shu' er's eyes were shining when she looked at him. But he didn't know why she suddenly changed a year ago. From Young General Song to Qi Huaijin, and then to that crying Cloud Leaf who couldn't even protect himself. She could accept anyone, but she just didn't want to choose him!
Ning Shu shook her head softly. "Although Third Young Master Qi and I haven't gotten married yet, we were still engaged. It's my duty to visit him often, and it's also my private matter. I won't disturb Your Highness from worrying."
Xiao Yunyi's expression darkened even more.
He clenched his fists until the veins on the back of his hand popped out. He gritted his teeth and looked at her stubbornly. "Do you think that I didn't help you just now, so you're deliberately saying this to anger me? That's not it! Shu 'er, remember, even if that Xiahou Qing didn't come just now, as long as I, Xiao Yunyi, am here, I won't let anyone hurt you. If you don't believe me, look behind you! "
With that said, he turned and got on his horse, urging it to leave. The scarlet cloak fluttered and the dust raised by the galloping horse's hooves was like the young prince's tumbling heart.
The Thirteenth Princess walked in front of her, narrowing her eyes and saying domineeringly, "I hope you remember what you said just now. You're not familiar with Prince Xiahou at all, and I'm warning you: You're not allowed to be familiar with him in the future."
