Zhao Luan turned around and looked down at Liu Zhenlan with a cold face. The eldest princess's aura was clearly revealed: "Liu Zhenlan, you keep saying that our Ah Yao colluded with you to frame Liu Zhenlian.
Let me ask you, do you have witnesses or physical evidence?"
Liu Zhenlan was oppressed by her powerful aura and was so frightened that she stopped crying. She raised her face to look at her and opened her mouth, but could not speak.
She has no evidence.
When Xia Jieyao said these words to him, she asked her to get rid of all the maids.
As for Xia Jieyao herself, she was accompanied by a personal maid.
But it is absolutely impossible for Xia Jieyao's maid to testify for her.
"Speak?" Zhao Luan raised his voice.
Liu Zhenlan almost collapsed on the ground, crying: "I have no evidence and no witnesses...
It's Xia Jieyao. Xia Jieyao has been prepared for a long time. She has already thought about it. If things don't work out, she will blame everything on me..."
"Keep her mouth shut and don't disturb His Majesty and everyone else," Zhao Luan ordered with his eyes piercing Liu Zhenlan's face.
Immediately, a palace maid came forward, blocked Liu Zhenlan's mouth, and pushed her to the ground.
Liu Zhenlan shook her head desperately and shed tears, but no one paid attention to her.
Li Can saw all this in her eyes. She lowered her eyes and thought about Xia Jieyao's words and deeds since she came in.
Although there is no evidence, what Liu Zhenlan said is very likely to be the truth.
Xia Jieyao managed to get away with what he did, which is really a good trick.
"Brother Imperial, this concubine of the Liu family is so audacious that she framed her and dared to bring trouble in front of the emperor." Zhao Luan turned around and saluted Emperor Qianyuan: "Brother, please make your decision."
"Liu Shenxun's concubine is really shameless." Emperor Qianyuan raised his eyelids: "Then I'll give her a hundred punishments and send her to a nunnery to live out the rest of her life."
"Woooo..."
When Liu Zhenlan heard Emperor Qianyuan's order, she couldn't help but become anxious. She struggled desperately and shook her head. The two maids could hardly suppress her.
With a hundred sticks, she would probably be beaten to death. Where would she have the chance to go to the nunnery?
"Didn't you hear His Majesty's instructions? Why don't you delay?" Zhao Luan turned around and shouted.
Just as the two palace maids were about to make a move, Liu Zhenlian's mother He suddenly stood up: "Wait a minute."
Everyone looked at her.
"Your Majesty." He saluted.
"What's the matter?" Emperor Qianyuan looked at her.
"The person who made a mistake in the palace today is my husband's concubine, and she can also be considered my daughter.
She did such a wrong thing, and it was because I, the aunt, did not teach her well, so I am also at fault."
He lowered his head and stated unhurriedly.
"Mr. He, what are you going to say?" Zhao Luan looked at her with dissatisfaction in his eyes: "Your Majesty is clearing the house for you, why are you standing up to stop him?"
She used to have many contacts with Mr. He when they were at the border, and they still had some friendship at that time.
Otherwise, when Mr. He brought Liu Zhenlian back from the border, she would not have held a special banquet to welcome them.
However, Liu Zhenlian was really outrageous and targeted her Ah Yao at every turn.
It's not like she hasn't mentioned this matter to Mr. He. After all, they have a friendship, and Liu Zhenlian should be on good terms with their Ah Yao.
But despite having said it several times, Liu Zhenlian still went her own way.
She gradually became alienated from Mr. He.
When she saw Mr. He standing up, as if to plead for Liu Zhenlan, she became angry and her former friendship was gone.
"I know that Your Majesty is doing it for the good of the Liu family." He glanced at Liu Zhenlan and said, "But Lan'er is a girl's family, and even an ordinary boy's family cannot withstand a hundred sticks.
If something happens to Lan'er, I won't be able to explain to him when her father comes back."
"What do I have to explain for such a disaster?" Zhao Luan looked at Liu Zhenlan bitterly: "It's enough to frame my own sister, but also to frame our Ah Yao like this. Our Ah Yao only has good intentions, but he still has to suffer.
He bites like this.
She should have been punished, not to mention His Majesty spoke up. Even if General Liu is to be blamed, she should be blamed for doing such a wrong thing."
Zhao Luan said through gritted teeth.
Liu Zhenlan would not be able to rest at ease unless she was beaten to death with a cane.
"That's what it says." Mrs. He looked at Emperor Qianyuan again: "Your Majesty, the son of my family who went to the border with my husband is the daughter of the same aunt as Lan'er.
My husband told me before he left that everyone in the family, young and old, was entrusted to me. I cannot just watch Lan'er die, so please show mercy to your majesty."
She knelt down as she spoke: "I beg your majesty to show mercy and spare Liu Zhenlan the punishment of the rod, and just put her in the nunnery."
Liu Zhenlian looked at her mother. Although she was angry, she also knew that what her mother did was reasonable, so she just stood there and sighed.
This is the situation in their family, what can she do?
Li Can looked at He who was kneeling on the ground and felt that she was really a good mother, and she should be similar in temperament to her aunt.
It's a pity that after meeting such a miserable concubine, there are still several aunts in the family to deal with.
Li Can couldn't help but sigh, even if He married Liu Shenxun, they were in love with each other at the beginning.
But he has been taking care of these women in his backyard for many years, and he has to constantly deal with all kinds of monsters created by these women. His own daughter was framed, and he still had to intercede on behalf of the framers.
On days like this, even if there was affection between the two at that time, it should have been wiped out long ago, right?
Tsk, being the mistress of the house in this way may seem like you know the basics, but in reality, you are trying to compromise.
She found it quite boring to wrong herself in this way.
"Yeah." Emperor Qianyuan nodded: "What you said makes some sense.
It's rare to have such a general understanding like you, so I'll just do as you say and send me to a nunnery, where I will never be able to return home.
In this way, your back house will be quieter."
He waved his hand, and the matter was settled.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." He kowtowed and apologized, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
Because this matter was related to her lotus seeds, she couldn't ignore it.
Otherwise, if Liu Zhenlan really died like this, Liu Shenxun would definitely blame her and Lianzi when he came back.
This time, she only needs to keep Liu Zhenlan alive, and what to do with Liu Shenxun when he comes back has nothing to do with her.
Liu Zhenlan suddenly collapsed on the ground and stopped struggling.
So what if he could survive? He was sent to a nunnery and could only be with Qingdeng for the rest of his life. Living like that would be worse than death!
The reason why she targets Liu Zhenlian everywhere is because she wants to push Liu Zhenlian into the abyss and make herself a head taller than Liu Zhenlian so that she can seek a good marriage in the future.
Emperor Qianyuan punished her like this, which made her suffer even more than taking her life.
It's all Liu Zhenlian's fault, it's all Liu Zhenlian's fault! And Xia Jieyao, they are not good people!
She hated it so much!
When Liu Zhenlian passed by her, she stepped on the back of her hand.
She raised her head and looked at Liu Zhenlian with hatred.
Liu Zhenlian looked down at her condescendingly, smiled a little proudly, and silently uttered two words to her: "You deserve it!"
Liu Zhenlan struggled violently again. She wanted to kill Liu Zhenlian! She wanted to die with Liu Zhenlian!
"Pull it down." Liu Zhenlian let go of her feet, ordered, and walked to her position easily.
"What happened just now was just a small matter. Don't take it to heart. Just pretend it never happened and let's have dinner." Emperor Qianyuan said.
Everyone agreed and took bowls, chopsticks and wine cups. The atmosphere in the hall returned to normal, as if what happened just now had never happened.
Xia Jieyao took the fruit wine and took several mouthfuls, but she couldn't taste the taste.
She felt that Zhao Luan already knew that what Liu Zhenlan said was true and that she had indeed joined forces with Liu Zhenlan.
But Zhao Luan didn't say anything to her or blame her. What does this mean?
She looked at Zhao Luan, who was talking to an important lady, and felt uneasy.
If Zhao Luan felt that she was scheming and had no intention of keeping her by his side, then she would not have a big tree like the eldest princess to rely on, and would have no choice but to go back to Jiang Anbo's mansion.
She is a child of Jiang Anbo Mansion, so it would be easy for her to go back.
It's just that that kind of life is not what she imagined.
Moreover, the power of Jiang Anbo's mansion is far behind that of the eldest princess's mansion.
Emperor Qianyuan believed in her just now, mostly because of Zhao Luan's face.
She hesitated and thought for a long time. After the lady of the house left, she called Zhao Luan: "Mother, I have something to tell you."
She weighed the pros and cons for a long time and finally made a decision.
Now that Zhao Luan saw it, she stopped hiding it and told the truth. Maybe there was still a chance to stay in the eldest princess's mansion.
