As a last resort, we must save the person first. My uncle must have already arranged Qingcheng's identity, so it doesn't hurt to tell him about the life-saving grace now.
"This..." Tokuyu hesitated, life-saving grace? He had never heard of it.
A voice sounded from behind, "Of course I can help!" Everyone looked behind the voice and saw a handsome young man in purple robe coming with a white fan with a poem inscribed on it. Who is this, if not the Seventh Prince?
Everyone saluted and said: "Join Your Majesty Seventh Prince."
Cang Shuo looked at Cang Lan protecting the woman behind him, and couldn't help but taunting her lips slightly: "I didn't expect His Royal Highness to be an infatuated person. It's so difficult for my brother that I even brought someone to rescue your sweetheart."
He originally thought that under the imperial edict, the prince would sacrifice the woman in order to extinguish his anger. Unexpectedly, this actually protected the person well. Tsk, once this person has a weakness, there will be loopholes everywhere in the future.
Cang Lan's face turned even more ugly, "What are you doing here?"
A few hints of an unknown smile escaped Cang Shuo's face. He slowly walked to Qingcheng and said, "Tsk, the pear blossoms are raining with rain. She is indeed a beauty. No wonder His Highness the Crown Prince is reluctant to part with her."
Qingcheng was stared at by him, and she took two uncomfortable steps back to avoid his gaze. From an angle that no one could see, there was an almost imperceptible coldness in her eyes.
Tokuyu spoke up and said respectfully: "Seventh Prince, just now you said that this girl was helpful to the prince?"
Cang Shuo spread out the white fan in his hand, "Not only is it a life-saving grace, but it is also the revenge of annihilating the family. Your Highness, don't you think so?"
Everyone was shocked instantly.
Especially the prince, he clenched his hands restrainedly and thought a lot in his mind. Qingcheng's identity was found out. How did he find out the person who was erased a year ago? Canglan calmed down instantly.
, so what if you know? This sentence is obviously a trap. What is the hatred of annihilation? Where does the hatred between him and Qingcheng come from? Canglan said with a serious face: "What are the seventh emperor brothers talking nonsense?"
Cang Shuo was still smiling, "Nonsense? How come Ruan Fang's daughter, who was supposed to be executed by the whole family, not only didn't die, she was still with His Highness the Crown Prince and almost became a concubine?"
Cang Lan narrowed her eyes, "The seventh emperor brother really keeps an eye on this palace every day..."
Ha, it seems to be true! He was still hesitant about what was written on the note. Cang Shuo's lips curled up slightly and he said, "The prince evaded the important and chose the light. He openly protected the daughter of the guilty minister and even allowed his concubine to marry him."
Prince, you should make it clear in front of your father." A hint of coldness flashed in his eyes, hum, Canglan, you will lose an arm this time.
Lingxiao Palace
Looking at the two people kneeling below, the Holy One rubbed his brows and said, "What's going on, Prince, please tell me."
Lao Qi had just recounted what happened. He endured the anger in his heart and gave the prince another chance to explain it in person.
A hint of gloom flashed in the seventh prince's eyes. The matter was so clear. His father still wanted to give the prince a chance to defend himself. It was so biased that he was blind to the point of partiality.
At this time, Qingcheng, who was dressed in white as snow, interrupted the prince. She knelt down and walked a few steps to kowtow in front of the Holy One and said: "Your Majesty, please see clearly that my father is unjust!"
The hall was silent at this moment, and even the seventh prince was shocked.
"Unjustly accused?" Emperor Xuan snorted coldly, with a tone that seemed to be a smile but not a smile. He lightly pressed his fingers on the dragon chair and made a "thump thump thump" sound. The entire hall was full of pressure. If an ordinary person was afraid, he would not even be able to say anything.
It’s no good asking for it.
Ruan Qingcheng shed a few drops of cold sweat, and his eyes were full of determination. He looked up at His Majesty, "Your Majesty, my father was wronged, and His Highness the Crown Prince can prove that there is doubt in this matter!"
Everyone looked at the prince again. The prince's pupils shrank sharply and a drop of cold sweat broke out, "Qingcheng! You..."
"Your Majesty!" Ruan Qingcheng interrupted him again, "My daughter is Ruan Qingcheng, the daughter of Ruan Fang, the magistrate of Yuyue Feng County. My father was executed by the whole family for corruption, but there is a hidden story. My father is a private citizen in Feng County.
He is a good and beloved official who is supported by the public opinion. When the incident happened, my father had never seen the shadow of official bank! During the flood, he even spent all his family wealth to help the people. The family and the female dependents were all starved of food. How could they be corrupt!"
"You said that the prince can prove it for you?" Emperor Xuan's eyes were filled with cold light at this moment, and he looked at the people below without anger or authority.
"Qingcheng!" The prince wanted to interrupt her.
Qingcheng kowtowed and ignored, "Replying to Your Majesty, after my father was slaughtered by the whole family, my little girl escaped by chance. Undoubtedly, she passed by and found that His Highness the Crown Prince was being hunted, so she blocked the Crown Prince's sword in the critical moment. However,
After the little girl woke up, she revealed her identity to the prince. Because her father wanted the prince to conduct a thorough investigation, the little girl never concealed her identity as the daughter of the guilty minister. Fortunately, His Highness the prince is worthy of being the crown prince of Daye.
As soon as I talked about it, I found that there was indeed something suspicious about my father's matter, so I kept my little girl with me, and then investigated the matter secretly."
"My daughter and His Highness the Crown Prince are innocent. His Royal Highness did not want a good official who served the country and the people to be wronged for no reason, so he kept the little daughter by his side despite the infamy of letting Miss An down. It is also true that His Highness the Crown Prince did not let the identity of the little girl be exposed.
Because I am afraid that my little daughter will be in danger, and I am afraid that the mastermind behind the frame-up of my father will kill my little girl..."
Everyone was stunned for a moment after hearing these words. These words seemed to make sense, but weren't the matters in Feng County personally examined by the prince?
When Cang Lan heard these words, he was immediately confused. He was not allowed to react for a long time, and he immediately said: "Father, please punish me for the crime of neglect! What happened to Ruan County Magistrate, I heard the report from Mr. Chen who was the judge of the matter.
The evidence was conclusive, so the order was issued without any doubt. However, after what Miss Ruan said later, I found that there were still doubts. Later, I carefully combed and thought about the matter of County Magistrate Ruan, and found that someone might have deliberately created evidence to mislead Chen.
Sir, this matter is due to my oversight. I beg my father to forgive me!"
Damn it! The arrow was on the string and had to be fired. Cang Lan looked at Qingcheng with a cold look. When he just spoke, he had already thought about the prognosis of this matter in his mind. If it is handled well, it will be an advantage. If it is not handled well...

"Bang!" The table that had just been changed in front of Emperor Xuan had some cracks, and he said angrily: "Prince! The crime of corruption is child's play! I can only have people who deserve to die in Daye, and we cannot have people who die in vain.
people!"
When Ruan Qingcheng heard this, she immediately raised her head. Tears streamed down her eyes, which were extremely red. She gasped loudly and tried her best to control the sound of choking, "Daye can only die."
There can be no one who dies in vain." Father, this is what the Holy Spirit said, did you hear it in heaven?
