"This subject lady …" Yao Ziyan lowered her head and stammered.
Xiao Ruyue frowned, and then entered the house.
Yuwen Chenglian stood there in a daze as he walked past him.
Yin Lin followed Xiao Ruyue in.
The young lady on the bed remained motionless. With a pained expression, her entire face was twisted into a knot.
Xiao Ruyue stepped forward and checked her pulse and breath. Her pulse was still beating and her breathing was still weak, but at least she had fainted.
However, there were bruises all over her arms and even her face. It was shocking, and with the clothes scattered on the ground, even a fool could see what had happened.
Xiao Ruyue covered her with a blanket and turned to look at Yuwen Chenglian. With a cold face, she said, "Tie up this person who is trying to cause trouble for the palace!"
When the others heard the commotion, they rushed over. The Empress ordered everyone to stay, but no one dared to delay any longer. The two young eunuchs took the ropes and walked over, and tied Yuwen Chenglian up.
Yuwen Chenglian did not struggle.
Yao Ziyan looked at Yuwen Chenglian and grinded his teeth, but his expression was firm. She had already made up his mind not to say anything.
Xiao Ruyue looked back and forth between the two of them. In the end, she looked at Yin Lin and said, "Go and ask who exactly brought Duke Wei and Wei Wangfei here to the Phoenix Palace.
Yin Lin nodded her head, and then went back down. Xiao Ruyue then turned to Yao Ziyan, "Wei Wangfei, you can say nothing, but regarding this matter, I will definitely report it to the Lord and the Empress Dowager. At that time, the decision will be left to the two of them. "You better take care of yourself."
Yao Ziyan bit her lower lip, as if she was hesitating, and didn't say a word in the end.
Very quickly, Lu Yi led the Imperial Physician Fang over, and seeing that Yuwen Chenglian was tied up, she did not dare ask anymore, lowering her head and entering.
"Imperial Physician Fang, I'll have to trouble you to take a look at her condition." Xiao Ruyue pointed to the girl on the bed, his expression a little worried.
Imperial Physician Fang glanced at it and roughly understood what was going on, but he knew clearly what to do and what to look for. He bowed towards Xiao Ruyue and went to check the girl's pulse.
After a long while, Imperial Physician Fang finally stood up and bowed to Xiao Ruyue, "Empress, the situation is not very good".
"Alright, I understand. You write the prescription, Yin Lin find a reliable person to catch the medicine later. This medicine will be left to you to fry, and take care of until the person is well. "
Imperial Physician Fang and Yin Lin both nodded.
Xiao Ruyue instructed Yin Lin to do something again, and stopped Yuwen Chenglian at the same time. Then she turned to Yao Ziyan and said, "Wei Wangfei should be clear about the consequences." The coldness in her eyes was so intense that it could freeze anyone.
Yao Ziyan could not help but shiver.
Xiao Ruyue did not even look at her, bringing her green clothes with him, and left.
Just as he reached the door, he met someone who had come from the royal garden to urge him on.
Yu mama, who was under the control of the Empress Dowager, saw Xiao Ruyue and shouted, "Empress, the Empress Dowager and the military are getting impatient and are asking this old woman to come and urge them."
Urge? Xiao Ruyue thought about Yuwen Chenglian who was tied up, and said with a smile that was not a smile: "Something has happened, I'll have to trouble Yu mama to go back and report to the Empress Dowager and the military, just say that I'll be there shortly."
"What does the Empress mean by this?" If there is any fear, this old granny will go back to report to Empress Dowager. " Senior Servant Yu was getting bolder and bolder as she spoke, looking down on everyone else. She really thought that with the Empress Dowager supporting her, she did not put the empress in her eyes.
Without even thinking about it, Xiao Ruyue raised his hand and slapped her aggressively, "What kind of power does this little old servant have? This palace, when did it become your turn to criticize this old servant? "
Being slapped by her, Yu mama felt like stars and her head felt dizzy.
Hearing that, Xiao Ruyue laughed coldly, "Since Empress Dowager has asked you to come here and urge me, then I will not reject your honor. I'll go right now. "
Xiao Ruyue's words sounded as if it had nothing to do with clouds and wind, causing the back of Senior Servant Yu to inexplicably feel cold.
The Imperial Garden's feast was in full swing, the singing and dancing taking place one after another, and it was extremely lively.
A servant announced, "The empress has arrived."
Xiao Ruyue slowly walked over, behind her were two young eunuchs holding Prince Wei, and behind him was Wei Wangfei, who looked to be in a sorry state.
Upon seeing this scene, many of the royal relatives and relatives present were stunned: When did King Wei and Wei Wangfei leave their seats?
And then, they couldn't sit still anymore.
The seniors immediately shrugged and asked, "What's going on?"
After all, the King of Wei, Yuwen Chenglian, was the current king's blood uncle.
Xiao Ruyue walked in front of them as if nothing had happened, and bowed to Yuwen He and Empress Dowager as if nothing had happened.
Even if it was the Empress Dowager s, when they saw this scene, they could not help but frown and ask, "Empress, what is going on? How could you tie up King Wei? "
"Royal Grandmother, no matter what, King Wei is still the king's blood uncle, how can he be so rude!" Just as Xiao Ruyue was about to speak, the Princess Qing He who was sitting beside the Empress Dowager was impatient to gain the initiative.
When Empress Dowager heard this, her face sunk. Obviously, she had heard what Princess Qing He had said, and was getting more and more unsatisfied with her.
"Don't worry, the empress has never been one to pester." Yuwen He said slowly, "Can the empress give us a reasonable explanation?"
Xiao Ruyue's bright eyes were as clear as clear spring water, without a shred of fear. "Your Majesty, please dismiss Empress Dowager first without any relation to the servants. This matter is related to the reputation of the Imperial Family."
Yuwen He waved his hands, Fang Weiyong received the order and ordered everyone to stop singing and dancing, and the palace maids and eunuchs all left. Only Fang Weiyong and a few of his trusted aides remained by his side.
Xiao Ruyue then explained everything that had happened after she returned to the Phoenix Palace. Of course, she didn't say a single word of what she should say.
After she finished speaking, the Empress Dowager looked to be in an awkward situation, the other royal relatives were also in the same state.
Princess Qing He, who was previously arrogant, was now as disgusted as if she had eaten a worm.
Xiao Ruyue took this opportunity to add fuel to the fire, and said: "Chenqie originally planned to report this matter after the banquet, but since Empress Dowager sent Senior Servant Yu to urge Chenqie to come, chenqie had no choice but to bring King Wei over to His Majesty and Empress Dowager to pass on the order."
"But I wonder, in inviting the palace maids into the Phoenix Palace, can it be counted as a calamity?"
When these words were spoken, the expressions of the Empress Dowager and the other imperial relatives became extremely unsightly.
Yuwen He's expression was normal, his gaze landed on Xiao Ruyue's face, and a playful smile flashed across his eyes, as if saying: You've played it big this time.
Xiao Ruyue's eyeballs rolled around, her face was full of innocence, and she silently argued: Come, come, come.
Yuwen He's lips curved up in a small smile, but it was quickly concealed.
This girl was getting bolder and bolder.
But I like it.
There was a long silence.
Many royal family members all proposed marriage, and each time you spoke, you were speaking up for Yuwen Chenglian.
The Empress Dowager's ears turned soft as she said to Xiao Ruyue, "Empress, you should take care of the imperial harem, but this is an extremely important matter, you can't do it recklessly."
"Empress Dowager, allow this concubine to say something unpleasant. I wonder what Prince Wei would do if he dares to touch one of our servants in the Phoenix Palace."
"As the saying goes, the Son of Heaven has committed the same crime as the commoners. If he were to pardon King Wei lightly today, where would the face of the imperial family go? How should the people of the world view the imperial family and the laws of Da Xia? "
Xiao Ruyue's attitude was tough and she did not have any plans to give in.
She used her actions to prove that, even if the other party was the powerful Duke Wei, and his own uncle, they would still have to follow the orders of the palace rule.
As long as these words were said to the royal family.
"No matter what, he is still the king's blood uncle." Empress Dowager was both embarrassed and displeased. At the moment, he was in a dilemma.
Many royal relatives looked at each other in dismay. They were choked to death by Xiao Ruyue's words, and no one uttered a word.
At this moment, Princess Qing He came running out to stir up trouble, saying, "Wei Wangfei is one of the victims and one of the people involved. The Empress hasn't asked Wei Wangfei about the whole story, right?"
Xiao Ruyue's brows twitched, and her watery eyes met Princess Qing He's complacent expression. Princess Qing He immediately felt as if a bucket of cold water was poured over her face, causing her scalp to go numb, and she felt goosebumps all over her body.
The atmosphere had reached a stalemate again.
Yao Ziyan became the center of attention.
"It was that palace maid who seduced the prince. This subject does not know when the prince made the connection with her, but the servant said that the prince went to the Phoenix Invitation Palace and this subject followed him when she felt something was wrong. This subject coincidentally saw that they had done the same thing in the Phoenix Invitation Palace."
"Perhaps Prince went crazy after drinking a few more cups, even me …"
The more she said, the more embarrassed she felt.
The Empress Dowager felt pain, "This evil creature! What a muddle! "
It was obvious that they had committed a heinous crime, but by the words of the Empress Dowager, they had become "muddled". The difference between the two was like the difference between heaven and earth.
A proud look flashed past Yao Ziyan's eyes, her face was still mixed with embarrassment and helplessness.
However, the pleased look that flashed past her eyes did not escape Xiao Ruyue's eyes.
Yao Ziyan, you must be very proud, for a big show like this has been resolved with just a few words from you. Are you satisfied with your masterpiece?
I give you a chance to be proud.
However, your chances are limited. Next, let's see who would laugh at the end.
"Empress Dowager, Your Majesty, the Prince's condition hasn't been very good recently. He's been worrying about it day and night, and has been unable to eat or sleep well." Yao Ziyan said again, a look of worry on her face.
When these words were spoken, many of the royal families seemed to be in high spirits.
Someone took the opportunity to echo him, "Your Majesty, Empress Dowager, the Wei Wang isn't usually this kind of person. Could it be that she has been possessed?"
"Nonsense, where did the evil talk come from in this palace!" Empress Dowager immediately rejected it with a cold face.
