"It's the Ninth Princess!" The maid looked fiercely at Luo Zhiyi, who was kneeling aside.
The emperor and King Yongxi were both shocked when they saw the woman kneeling on the ground in a gorgeous dress, who was the ninth princess, Luo Zhi.
"Ninth Princess, is this what the maid said?" The emperor's face was always stern.
"She is right. However, Zhiyi did not mean it." Luo Zhiyi did not refute.
The emperor listened to Luo's wishes and recognized the cause of the matter, and looked at Bai Ye behind him with a bit of embarrassment.
"Your Majesty, the country has national laws and the family has family rules. You can deal with it as you want. I will not protect anyone." Bai Ye's words couldn't be more clear.
Luo Zhiyi knelt on the ground and lowered her head. After hearing Bai Ye's words, her heart felt sour and painful, making her feel a little short of breath. Although she knew it was her fault this time, how could the emperor
She didn't complain even if she was punished, but from the bottom of her heart, she still hoped that that person could intercede for her, excuse her, and protect her...
"Your Majesty, the Ninth Princess did not do this on purpose. Please give her a gentle punishment." Lian Ruoshui suddenly stepped forward and knelt in front of the Emperor to plead for Luo Zhiyi.
Jinhe lowered his head, his forehead was still dripping with blood, and he had mixed feelings in his heart. It turned out that what the young lady said was true. The prince really did not treat the young lady as well as she thought.
Bai Ye's eyes never left Luo Zhiyi, seeing all the changes in her expression.
At this time, the door of the dormitory opened, and Imperial Physician Sun came out. His face was pale, his forehead was covered with sweat, and he looked at Concubine Rong and King Yongxi anxiously.
"The lower official is incompetent..." After saying that, he knelt down.
Everyone was shocked. Luo Zhiyi's face turned pale and he slumped down, only to be hugged tightly by Jin He. Bai Ye's face was also solemn as never before, and his brows were furrowed.
"No!" Concubine Rong exclaimed and fainted. The palace doctor was busy again.
King Yongxi stood up on the spot, his face turned pale and his eyes were filled with pain.
The emperor was also angry. Princess Lian Ruoshui of Wanping County looked at the changes in everyone's expressions and suddenly kowtowed to the emperor three times: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, this matter is really just an accident. Although the Ninth Princess is at fault,
,but......"
But what, she didn't say any more, she just looked at Luo Zhiyi worriedly.
King Yongxi bowed his head and saluted the emperor, and said: "Your Majesty, I will go in first to see Nan'er."
The emperor nodded, and King Yongxi swayed towards his bedroom.
In the courtyard, only the emperor, Bai Ye and his wife were left, as well as Lian Ruoshui.
The emperor's majestic eyes were directed at Luo Zhiyi, "Ninth Princess, I have always known that you have a wild temper. Although you are the prime minister's beloved daughter, you don't have the dignity and composure that a lady should have. However, the ninth brother likes you, not you.
Don't marry me. I have the beauty of an adult and let you marry into the Heavenly Family. I thought that as a married woman, your temper should be restrained, but unexpectedly it got worse. Not only did you get drunk in public at the palace banquet, but this time you were so reckless that you knocked Yong down.
Princess Xi caused King Yongxi to lose his beloved son, you..."
The emperor was furious and finally said angrily: "A life is worth a life..."
The emperor's angry shout made Luo Zhiyi's face turn gray, his eyes suddenly brightened, and he felt scared for the first time in his heart. Could it be that this time...
For a time, Luo Zhiyi's mind turned over and over again, with tears streaming down her face. She thought of the Prime Minister's father and mother, her three brothers who loved her and doted on her, and Bai Ye who doted on her in just two months...
...
Jin He was also extremely frightened. He hugged the limp Luo Zhiyi and cried softly at a loss.
"Your Majesty..." Bai Ye's expression changed drastically. He walked to Luo Zhiyi, knelt on the ground with one knee, held Luo Zhiyi's hand, and looked at the Emperor sincerely.
"Didn't the Ninth Brother deal with it as he said and wouldn't protect anyone?" The emperor's face was as heavy as water. Although Bai Ye had an extraordinary relationship with him, King Yongxi was also his younger brother, and now his life was at stake.
, how could he be biased?
"Your Majesty, I know this is all Zhiyi's fault, but the fifth brother's child is no longer alive. I ask the Emperor to spare his life." Bai Ye knelt down on his knees and faced the Emperor.
He kowtowed heavily.
The warmth in Bai Ye's palm brought Luo Zhiyi back to her senses. She looked at the man kneeling on the ground next to her, and her heart surged for a moment. When he said he would never protect her, her heart was still astringent. At this time, she saw that he finally stood still.
Next to her, holding her hand, the sourness just now disappeared, and she just looked at him blankly.
"Madam, my husband said that as long as I am here, I will protect you. Don't worry, I will never let the emperor kill you." Bai Ye smiled tenderly at Luo Zhiyi and held her hand.
Her hands tightened again, as if giving her strength.
"Your Majesty..." Luo Zhiyi called out softly, his heart filled with emotion. He didn't plead just now because he felt that the emperor would not kill her even if he punished her. Thinking of this, Luo Zhiyi
I felt relieved.
Bai Ye took Luo Zhiyi from Jin He's arms and hugged him.
Luo Zhiyi leaned in his arms, listening to his powerful heartbeat, and suddenly felt at ease. At this moment, she believed that even if the sky fell and the earth fell, as long as he was by her side, he would definitely protect her.
The emperor looked at the two people hugging each other with complicated eyes, and for a moment he didn't know how to make a decision.
"Your Majesty." Suddenly, a soft voice sounded outside the courtyard, but it was Concubine Yuan.
"Why is my concubine here too?"
"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Luo is here." Concubine Yuan bowed and walked to the Emperor's side and whispered.
"He came too soon." The emperor snorted coldly and said, "Xuan."
Soon, Prime Minister Luo, dressed in court uniform, walked in quickly and saw Luo Zhiyi kneeling on the ground, but the Ninth Prince hugged her. Her original worries seemed to have gone away. With Ninth Prince protecting her, at least there was no fear for her life.
.
"I am here to see you, Your Majesty." Prime Minister Luo looked solemn and bowed in a dignified manner.
"Ai Qing, please live in peace."
"Wei Chen is frightened." Prime Minister Luo knelt on the ground and did not get up. He lay on the ground and said in an emotional voice, "My little girl has caused a big disaster. It is Wei Chen, the father, who failed to discipline her. Please punish me."
"Luo Aiqing's words are reasonable. If a son fails to teach, it is the father's fault. Although the ninth princess is a woman, people cannot agree with Luo Cheng's teachings to her." The emperor did not have the slightest fondness for Luo Zhiyi, and in his words
It's all disgust.
"Prime Minister Luo, you taught me a good daughter!" Suddenly, a majestic female voice remembered.
I saw Concubine Rong walking out with the support of the palace maid. Although her face was pale, her eyes were extremely sharp.
"The sin of a humble minister deserves death." Prime Minister Luo lay on the ground and said without raising his head.
When the emperor saw Concubine Rong coming out, he knew that she wanted a result, so he looked at Luo Zhiyi and Bai Ye with great embarrassment.
