Shen Yuting stepped back in panic: "It wasn't me! It was the incense that broke it by itself!"
The old Marquis stared at her with a cannibalistic look, then knelt on the ground and kowtowed deeply: "I am guilty, your Majesty, please forgive me."
Shen Zhijiang also knelt down, the expression on his face was blank.
There was dead silence in the hall.
The chanting also stopped. The courtiers and officials lowered their heads and did not dare to speak out. The noble ladies frowned and looked at Shen Yuting in disbelief.
With so many people offering incense together, why did the incense burn out when it was her turn?
It is not a good thing to cut off the incense before the soul.
Emperor Zhaoming's face was gloomy, he looked at the broken incense on the ground, and then looked at Shen Yuting with cold eyes.
Shen Yuting was so frightened that her legs became weak and she knelt on the ground. She hurriedly shook her head and said, "It's not me...it's really not me! It broke it on its own..."
"Master Kuhai," Emperor Zhaoming ignored her and asked with a stern face, "The incense in front of the soul broke for no reason. What does this mean?"
Master Kuhai frowned and was silent for a moment.
"Master, believe me! I really wasn't the one who caused it to break..." Shen Yuting was so frightened that she shed tears.
Although she didn't understand the rules of taboos, she also knew that it was definitely not a good sign if the incense offered to the deceased was broken for no reason.
She tried her best to explain: "I...I offered the incense to the Queen sincerely, and I definitely didn't mean the slightest disrespect. I don't know why the incense suddenly stopped. It wasn't me...really
It's not me! I didn't do anything..."
The more she explained, the colder Emperor Zhaoming's expression became, and even the prince and princess frowned.
Seeing the expressions of several powerful people, Shen Yuting became even more panicked. She subconsciously asked her protector for help: "Dad, please say something to me! I really didn't break it...
"
The old Marquis, who was kneeling on the ground, had a distorted expression on his face, and he was ready to strangle his granddaughter to death.
Before coming, I told her to be careful and not to make any mistakes!
As a result, this idiot still got into big trouble, and now he still has the nerve to ask for help!
Shen Zhijiang was so frightened that his whole body collapsed and his face was dripping with cold sweat.
Master Kuhai sighed softly, lowered his eyes and said: "Amitabha, this female benefactor may have made a mistake for a moment. Please, please give her another chance for the sake of your empress' jealousy?"
Emperor Zhaoming looked unhappy and said nothing.
However, Shen Yuting saw hope and knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "I beg Your Majesty to give me another chance! I must sincerely offer incense to the Empress and beg the Queen to forgive me."
"That's all." Emperor Zhaoming let out a breath, "Since the master has spoken, I will give you another chance."
"Thank you so much, Your Majesty!" Shen Yuting suddenly cried with joy.
The monk holding the incense next to her came over. Shen Yuting stood up wiping her tears, carefully took the incense and lit it, then knelt on the futon.
Everyone in the hall looked at her.
Xiao Lingyue calmly held Beibei's hand and stood aside, looking at Shen Yuting who was offering incense, the corners of her mouth under the veil seemed to be smiling but not smiling. Popular "" This chapter has been completed!
