When they arrived at the Jinluan hall, the ministers stood in two lines and the seats were already taken. Lady Jin, followed by the concubines, followed by the lady with an honorary title, walked into the hall slowly, followed by three Bowes. "Your Majesty, may you live long and long. Pay respects to the empress."
"Arise." Emperor Ning's emotionless voice resounded in the Jinluan hall and finally stopped.
Everyone stood up. Yun Shang lifted her eyes and saw emperor Ning sitting on his chair. He was dressed in red clothes with a gold dragon embroidered on it. Liu Qingya was sitting beside him. She wore a red dress with a phoenix embroidered with wings, and her makeup was dignified and graceful.
Yun Shang couldn't help exclaiming. She had been worried about Liu Qingya whether she could keep the show. But she didn't expect that the Phoenix costume with a phoenix crown made her dignified.
"Please take your seat," Emperor Ning's eyes rested on Lady Jin for a while, and then he said softly.
All people walked to the seats in the back and sat down. Yun Shang also walked to the seats behind Prince Jing and sat down. There was a sound of music, and it was a good fortune. Yun Shang listened to the music, bowed her head and said, "Jing Wenxi has come."
Prince Jing was surprised. He looked around and saw the woman in red. "It shouldn't happen, I have locked her in a very solid place. It's impossible for her to escape. Besides, I never heard from our secret guards that she escaped..." said Prince Jing, frowning.
Hearing the prince's words, Yun Shang flashed a smile. She turned to look at Jing Kui, but she saw that it seemed that he had not expected that Jing Wenxi would be here. His eyes were full of disbelief and his face suddenly turned pale.
The gaze of Jing Kui and Prince Jing was so eye-catching that emperor Ning also looked over. As soon as he saw that, he furrowed his brows and said with a bit of displeasure in his voice, "today is the day of my bestowed title, but someone appeared in a red dress on the occasion. What crime should she take?"
People saw the red robe but didn't get dressed due to the time and place. When they heard the emperor lose his temper, they looked at Jing Wenxi.
Jing Wenxi walked to the palace unhurriedly and made a bow to Emperor Ning. "Your Majesty didn't order me not to enter the palace in red today. But since your majesty gets angry because of this, it's my fault. I'm sorry. But his Majesty was convicted only because he wore a inappropriate dress. So what if the crime of deceiving the emperor? "
Emperor Ning cast a cold glance at Jing Wenxi and said, "you should be put to death for the crime of treason. But what if you repeat it? Do you want to commit another crime?"
Yun Shang looked at Jing Wenxi, and saw her give a wry smile, "of course I didn't. But I know someone in the palace committed the crime of treason. Not only that, she also tried to murder the daughter of the emperor!"
A princess? Everyone lowered their heads and whispered with a doubtful look, "there are only two princesses in the state of Ning, Princess Hua Jing. But she can't be taken as a princess now, right? And they hadn't heard that she was dead? Isn't the other Princess here? Why did she say that someone killed her? "
"Nonsense!" Emperor Ning whacked the armrest of the throne. His gaze became colder.
"I'm not talking nonsense. Today, I'm going to reveal a heinous human here. She is... " Jing Wenxi stood up abruptly and pointed in the direction of the hall.
Everyone looked in the direction that Yun Shang pointed and saw her pointing at Prince Jing.
"She must be crazy. Why did she say Prince Jing was trying to murder the princess?" Some of them whispered.
"She killed the princess! It's lady jing!" Jing Wenxi raised her voice suddenly, echoing in the Jinluan hall for a long time. Then it gradually calmed down, but all sorts of voices sounded, whispering, laughing, surprised, and contemptuous.
