His eyebrows raised, and between his brows appeared a slight hostility and killing intent. The sneer on his lips was like a blade that was tempered with ice and snow, the blade slashed into his flesh, the blade blossomed with an ice-cold snow like a flower.

"I spent a lot of effort to retrieve this Soul-Breaking Grass from the Royal Family of the State of Yue. As for why didn't the emperor wake up? What does it have to do with me? What does it have to do with my general's residence? Prime Minister Ye's ability to turn black into white and spout blood is truly admirable. "

"You!" Prime Minister Ye pointed at Xie Qingrong with his forefinger, choking his throat with no more than a few bites, after which he unhappily said: "What a sharp tongued woman."

He then lifted his official's robe and kneeled in front of Queen Zhangsun, saying in a low voice, "Now that Your Majesty is unconscious and the Empress is in charge of the Phoenix Seal, I hope the Empress can come up with a plan to not cover this lowly one up."

The meaning in his words was always clear that Xie Qingrong had committed a death crime and he hoped that the Queen Zhangsun would enforce the law impartially. He could not cover up for the crime just because Xie Qingrong was about to marry into the Prince Chen's Mansion.

Queen Zhangsun's face was gloomy as she glanced at Prime Minister Ye without batting an eyelid, not saying a word.

On the contrary, when Imperial Consort Ye saw that the chance to punish Xie Qingrong came, she was pleased with herself. With a flash of light between her brows, she added on the side, "Prime Minister Ye speaks the truth.

Borrowing the emperor's authority to beat up the empress, Imperial Consort Ye's words were flawless.

Interesting.

Xie Qingrong watched coldly from the side as Prime Minister Ye and Imperial Consort Ye chimed in on the side. Suddenly, he did not want to explain anymore and made it difficult for Queen Zhangsun.

Xuanyuan Chen went over to Xie Qingrong's side and held onto his palm tightly.

Her deep eyes focused on Xie Qingrong. Although her eyes were cold and indifferent, Xie Qingrong could still see a trace of concern and worry in them.

Xuanyuan Chen pursed his lips, as if he was saying something.

Xie Qingrong understood Xuanyuan Chen's words, he pursed her lips and nodded.

"matriarch, you decide who is right and wrong on this matter. But this son believes that A Rong is not the one who harmed royal father. " Xuanyuan Chen suddenly spoke, reminding the Queen Zhangsun who was deep in thought.

When everyone heard the first half of Xuanyuan Chen's words, they were all stunned. Since when did Xuanyuan Chen become so easy to talk to?

However, when they heard the last sentence, many of those who knew could only smile helplessly.

Xuanyuan Jing coldly snorted, and said with disdain: "Now that royal father is unconscious, this is the best evidence. Third Brother, why do you need to cover for her?"

Queen Zhangsun's cold gaze swept across Xuanyuan Jing. The usually dignified and elegant face that was currently as dark as water, was expressionless as she said: "I have my own judgement on who is right and wrong. There's no need for you to be the envoys that will solve this case. Since you have the free time, you might as well focus on the imperial government. "

Xuanyuan Jing unwillingly shut his mouth and remained silent.

"Because of the Soul-Breaking Grass he took, the emperor was unconscious, and from that day onwards, he is to prison. As long as the Emperor does not wake up, Xie Qingrong will not be able to release him. " The Queen Zhangsun announced in a serious tone.

"Big sister empress, isn't this punishment too light?" After all, this Xie Qingrong is harming the life of the emperor. " Imperial Consort Ye carefully suggested.

However, he was extremely indignant in his heart. This punishment was simply too light and nimble for Xie Qingrong.

In the end, Zhangsun Linglong was still protecting Xie Qingrong.

"How could Imperial Concubine Ye question my work?" The Queen Zhangsun shot a cold glance at the Imperial Consort Ye, and said coldly.

It was just a few simple words, but the demeanor of a mother was obvious. Looking at it this way, Imperial Consort Ye was indeed a little petty.

"I presume that the various ministers still have many doubts in their minds. However, I hope you all will remember that the Emperor is unconscious, and upon hearing that the Soul-Breaking Grass can live on, Xie Qingrong did not hesitate to travel thousands of miles to the Yue Country to retrieve the Soul-Breaking Grass. Three days have passed, and the Emperor is still unconscious. He is no longer the same as before, how could he possibly harm the Emperor? "

Zhangsun Linglong said indifferently, her expression was cold and her temperament was noble.

"But …" Prime Minister Ye moved his lips, hesitating, as if he wanted to say something.

"Prime Minister Ye doesn't need to say anymore, I'm tired." Queen Zhangsun immediately gave the order to expel the guest.

When the guards outside came in and attempted to cut both of Xie Qingrong's hands back to her back, Xie Qingrong coldly said, "I'll leave first."

Xie Qingrong didn't even turn her head around, and stepped out of the entrance of the Dry Clear Palace's palace.

Xuanyuan Chen stared at Xie Qingrong's back, clenching his fists, he blamed himself in his heart.

If he was strong enough, why would A Rong be imprisoned? The grievances that A Rong had suffered today, in the future, he would definitely report back little by little from these people.

Xie Qingrong stepped out of Dry Clear Palace's Palace entrance, and a few clouds floated in the sky.

A gentle breeze seemed to be able to dispel all the haze in one's heart. Xie Qingrong pursed her lips, and like a peach flower in March, her beauty was like that of a plum, shining and dazzling.

Recalling the words Xuanyuan Chen had revealed with his lips moving, it was as clear as the sun and moon.

What he said was, believe me.

Inside Dry Clear Palace, the group of people gradually retreated. Dry Clear Palace, who had been bustling with noise and excitement a moment ago, now appeared cold and deserted.

Queen Zhangsun also removed the frosty expression on her face. His pair of cold eyes were filled with ripples as tears continued to flow from them.

"Chen Er, what exactly is the agreement between you and your royal father?" Queen Zhangsun asked, her clear voice choked with emotions.

"I believe matriarch has already guessed it." Xuanyuan Chen laughed faintly.

It was as if he was not surprised that matriarch had guessed the agreement between him and his royal father. It was a very ordinary expression, as if everything had been planned out by him.

"Just now, Chen Er emphasized the word 'harm'. It was hard for matriarch not to know. Unless your royal father is willing, who else can harm him? " Queen Zhangsun wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes and said with pride.

"As expected, matriarch and royal father have tacit understanding for many years. I was originally worried that matriarch would not be able to handle this blow, but now, it can be considered as peace of mind. "

Xuanyuan Chen bent his waist, and spoke with a rare tone of gentleness and indulgence.

"Since you already know that your royal father is safe and sound, you can leave. As for Qingqing, watch her more closely. I'm worried that someone in the Sky Prison will cause trouble for her. " Queen Zhangsun warned.

"I'm from the province of ChenChen." After Xuanyuan Chen bowed, he carefully left Dry Clear Palace, leaving a warm space for royal father and matriarch.

Queen Zhangsun gazed at the handsome and extraordinary man lying on the dragon bed. This man was not only the emperor of the Heavenly Sage Kingdom, he was also the emperor in her heart.

She was the husband that she wanted to spend the rest of her life with, the one who protected her and cherished her.
