Hearing the servant's report, before Rong Chu could even react, he exploded.

"Tell him that His Highness is asleep and that he should come back tomorrow!"

Song Yao released his arm, lowered her head and did not speak.

Rong Chu looked at her a few times, then spoke out the door: "Let him wait, get someone to attend to him."

The servant outside agreed, and very quickly four palace maids came in to help Rong Chu organize his things, and then stood by the side and waited for orders.

"Watch her. Don't let her take a step out of this door." With that said, Rong Chu swung his sleeves and left with one of the palace maids.

Before Song Yao could even finish her sentence of "wait", she was locked inside the room. She and the three palace maids stared at each other for a long while before asking: "Are you guys bored? Why don't we play the game?"

All three of them shook their heads, not even looking at her.

In truth, it was safest for Song Yao to be with Rong Chu right now, but she really did not want to see Gongsun Xiao, what country cat, she really wanted to slap him twice. Moreover, she had been ordered by him for an entire afternoon, so she was really too tired now.

When Song Yao woke up, she was currently being embraced by Rong Chu. Their gazes met, and Rong Chu was expressionless as he rolled down from's embrace, almost breaking his tail.

Rong Chu looked at her, "You really don't know what's good for you."

While rubbing his buttocks, Song Yao, who had clearly sorted out his thoughts, also knew that Rong Chu was pitiful looking at her sleeping on the floor. He probably wanted to put her on the bed as well?

But this really couldn't be blamed on her. When she woke up and was hugged by a man, this reaction was also normal right?

"I can't believe that His Highness the Crown Prince is actually quite human. He actually dotes on a little girl like me." Song Yao was disgusted, so she just spouted nonsense.

Rong Chu was unmoved, "You're thinking too much, just because you're snoring on the ground, I can't fall asleep."

Song Yao:...

Not telling the truth would result in his death?

"Alright, then I can't accept your kind intentions."

Rong Chu did not speak further, he sent someone to help him wash before going to bed.

Song Yao slept for a long time, not really tired, so she lit up the extinguished candle and carried the book of words, sitting in front of the table and knocking it hard.

The second day, she was woken up by Rong Chu's slap, and Rong Chu did not wake her up to eat breakfast. When she woke up, Rong Chu had already returned to the east palace and planned to pretend to be out of the palace.

In fact, Song Yao felt a bit of regret, she still wanted to see Rong Chu in his official uniform.

Rong Chu's personal uniforms were basically all dark attributed, and from afar, it always gave people a strange feeling of oppression.

Other than the palace, the two of them went straight to the Master presiding.

It was unknown who had given the notice to the Assistant Minister of the Department of Public Affairs, but he had arrived earlier than them.

Song Yao did not know how to react, but she glanced at Rong Chu who looked like she was watching a joke, and immediately changed her mind, at least she did not need to prepare anything.

As they were all people who looked at evidence and spoke, they did not waste time talking to each other and went straight to the point.

Very quickly, the Big Sister Feng was brought to the hall.

When the Assistant Minister saw Big Sister Feng, his originally vicious face grew even more sinister.

"Miss Song, this matter concerns life and death. If you fool this old man, even if you have the backing of your highness, this old man will not let you off lightly."

Song Yao nodded her head, "Master's words are true, master's students cannot die in vain, the friends of this humble girl must prove their innocence, and I will definitely not lie about this matter. Just that, we are still short of a witness, I hope Master presiding can send someone to request for it. "

"Who is it?"

On top of Master presiding's head, there were four big words, "Bright and Hanging Mirror". It sounded like it was taking charge, and its voice was loud like a bell. Song Yao jumped in fright upon hearing it.

"That's the present Prince Consort, Sun Qinghe."

When she said those words, other than her and Big Sister Feng, everyone else revealed a shocked expression.

Song Yao continued: "Regarding this, Prince Consort's evidence is indispensable. If the three of you really want this case to be known, then Prince Consort must be invited."

The hall was silent, after a while, Rong Chu opened his mouth: "Xie Yang!"

Someone immediately came in from the door. Rong Chu said: "Take my medallion to the princess' mansion and request for the third prince's horse. Tell him to come quickly."

Xie Yang accepted the orders and left. An hour later, Sun Qing appeared in the hall.

After dispensing with etiquette, the one who should have been asked by the presiding turned into Song Yao due to Rong Chu's tacit approval.

Rong Chu wanted to take this opportunity to see what kind of place Song Yao could come up with, so he let go of everything. He wanted to see what she could do, so the others naturally had to give the Crown Prince face.

"Big Sister Feng, now is the time for you to tell us everything. Don't be afraid, just tell us the details of what happened that night."

Lou Lingfeng looked at Song Yao, and then sneaked a glance at Sun Qinghe.

"Big Sister Feng, don't forget what you said and what you promised me. You aren't doing this just for yourself."

"I know …" Lou Lingfeng looked at Song Yao, and then said to Master presiding: My lord, please report.

"My real name is Lou Lingfeng. Because I am currently residing in the Drunken Fragrance Pavilion, the Pavilion Master has given me the name Begonia. Drunken Fragrance Pavilion is a romantic place, where I met Third Consort Sun Qing. I am grateful to him for helping me out, he likes to listen to me play the zither, and after a while, feelings began to arise. "It's just a chance, but the young master was favored by the third princess and thus has made his name. However, our old relationship has not been broken off and we have often kept in touch."

"On the night of Jun Gongzi's death, I did not stay in Drunken Fragrance Pavilion. The Princess did not allow the Prince Consort to go out, so he did so helplessly. "

"Be careful of what you say, sir!" "You must know that this is a court, and although it is not a public trial, all of the people here have a certain level of authority. If you are talking nonsense, then you are guilty of an even greater crime!" The presiding official warned Song Yao. Song Yao thought about it but ultimately did not say anything.

"My words are true, please investigate it clearly!" Although Lou Lingfeng was initially afraid and cowardly, but when she finally reached this step, an additional burst of tension appeared out of nowhere.

When the presiding heard this, he looked at Sun Qinghe, "Prince Consort, what do you have to say about this!?"

"She lied!" Sun Qinghe's expression did not change. "I have not seen this person ever since this prince consort and the princess were married. The things that happened before were no longer worth mentioning. Now that we have been framed, I hope the lord can investigate this and give me justice."

"Oh?" When Lou Lingfeng heard this, he was already in a daze. Song Yao took the opportunity to speak, "If Prince Consort Ma says that the Big Sister Feng is lying, then isn't Prince Consort as well? If the Prince Consort's words were true, why would he send someone to the prison to see his elder sister, begging her not to expose this matter? "

When these words came out, everyone, including Lou Lingfeng, were stunned. However, Sun Qing's expression became even more determined: "This Prince Consort has never done this before, and I can guarantee with my own head that none of my Prince Consort's Mansion s have ever visited this woman in prison!"

"Oh? "Are you sure?" Song Yao said again.

"Naturally." Sun Qing said resolutely.

Seeing that, the presiding looked at Song Yao, "Regarding this, do you have any proof?"

Song Yao hesitated and shook her head.

Rong Chu closed the fan in his hand: "Song Yao, you clear up the situation, I will give you three quarters of an hour. If you are unable to explain, not to mention presiding, I, your highness, will punish you as well!"

"Don't be in such a hurry …"

"If you waste more time, the punishment will be even worse!"

"Sure!" Song Yao replied.
