Xiao Chenggang stabbed her, and she stabbed him right back.
He even got involved with his son.
Zhenbei Hou felt a little embarrassed, but he also knew that Shen Wan's original intention was not with Chu Yuanqi, but was just using Chu Yuanqi's name to ridicule Xiao Chenggang.
After all, Xiao Chenggang is still the father-in-law of King Yi in terms of status.
The former Princess Yi died, and Prince Yi had the blood of the Xiao family flowing in his body. Naturally, Xiao Chenggang did not want to see other women enter Prince Yi's palace and affect the prince's status.
The Marquis of Zhenbei smoothed things over and said, "Old Xiao, let's stop talking here. His Majesty is still waiting for us."
Xiao Chenggang looked at Xiao Lingyue with cold eyes: "I am just a little suspicious. The assassins last night were obviously well prepared. Even the Imperial Army was no match for them. How could it be such a coincidence that you managed to break through the assassination attempt?" Did you save His Majesty?"
"Maybe I'm lucky." Xiao Lingyue seemed not to understand what he meant.
"Is it just luck?" Xiao Chenggang's tone was aggressive.
Zhenbei Hou frowned and said, "Old Xiao, what do you mean by this?"
"Don't you think it's strange, Lord Chu?" Xiao Chenggang said with cold eyes, "There are so many military generals and so many forbidden troops in Xiangguo Temple, why didn't anyone else bump into the assassin, but a woman did it? Already?"
Does this mean that she suspects Shen Wan is colluding with the assassin?
"General, I never talk nonsense. Even in front of His Majesty, I will say the same thing." Xiao Chenggang stared at Xiao Lingyue with cold and sharp eyes.
Xiao Lingyue said: "Then you can go and speak in front of His Majesty."
Xiao Chenggang: "..."
"What you say must be supported by evidence." Xiao Lingyue said with a half-smile, "General Xiao, please don't bully the young with your superiority. If you think I'm young, you think I'm easy to deceive."
"Why I met the assassin, and why I was lucky enough to save His Majesty, this is my business."
"Even His Majesty did not doubt me, but General Xiao took it upon himself to make this move. Please tell me, why should I explain to you?"
Who is he on the card?
Xiao Chenggang looked angry: "What did you say?!"
"By the way, I forgot to tell General Xiao that because of my meritorious service in protecting the emperor, His Majesty just made me the Lord of Anping County, the second rank!"
Xiao Lingyue curled up the corners of her mouth, her eyes were cold, "So, General Xiao, please be polite to me, I am not a suspect under your command!"
Xiao Chenggang's eyes narrowed: "..."
The Marquis of Zhenbei was shocked: "What did you say? His Majesty made you the Lord of the County?"
The other officials were stunned and speechless, looking at her in disbelief.
"It's true, I can vouch for it! The imperial grandfather has personally issued the edict, and it will be issued after he returns to Beijing." Han Han took the initiative to stand up, his handsome little face was stern, and his eyes were looking at him unhappily. Xiao Chenggang.
"The imperial grandfather did not doubt my aunt and even issued a decree to reward her. This is enough to prove my aunt's innocence. She not only saved your majesty, but also saved me! I will not allow anyone to slander her!"
Zhenbeihou was completely speechless.
He frowned and looked at Xiao Chenggang, and whispered: "Old Xiao, what's the matter with you? Do you really have evidence?"
Xiao Chenggang's face was ashen and he said nothing.
The meaning of slandering an ordinary person is completely different from slandering a noble lady with a title.
In other words, Xiao Chenggang can discredit "Shen Wan", but he cannot discredit the owner of Anping County.
He can't say it without evidence. Popular "" This chapter has been completed!
