Chapter 152 Fearless

Emperor Yongle suddenly turned his words around and favored Chu Ruoxi. He no longer tracked her down as an assassin and intended to calm down the matter, which surprised Prince Rui.

At the same time, he also asked Prince Rui to look at Chu Ruoxi, a little girl who was not as good as him. His father did not ask him for testimony. In this way, he believed her words, whether he really liked her or cared about Chu Yuanshan behind her.

The old fox of Chu Yuanshan looked coldly at what happened in the hall and did not reprimand Chu Ruoxi for the rudeness of patting the chair angrily in front of the emperor. The Chu family really did not pay attention to the father and so many heirs and children of the Yang family.

No one can understand what the Yongle Emperor was thinking. He scolded the slaves of Zhengde, "You really deserve to die. You can't even stand the master. What's the use of you?"

"The slave was wronged. It was only for a moment that the crown princess was assassinated. The slaves and others had no chance to take action at all. The emperor's people arrived. The slaves were powerless and really didn't need the slaves. The guards came quickly. Isn't the assassins enough to be captured?"

Eunuch Xu is a great eunuch who serves the king of Jin. He knows that there will be no good end if he offends Chu Ruoxi, and no matter what happens. Anyway, he is right to defend Chu Ruoxi now.

"Wait, you said that the crown princess was assassinated, but you saw it with your own eyes?" Prince Rui asked.

Of course, Grandpa Xu didn't see it, but these old deep-fried dough sticks will naturally grind their words without thorns.

"When I returned to His Highness, I served in the bedroom of the King of Jin. It was not clear that the crown princess had been poisoned by the assassin before she returned to the Zhengde Hall. She could not see how the assassin would take action, but the slave still heard a little of the fight in the yard. He was worried that the little eunuch did not understand the rules and quarreled His Royal Highness the King of Jin. I planned to teach them the rules. Who knew that many bodyguards rushed in and said that they had captured the assassin. Unfortunately, the assassin ran away. If he didn't dare to disrespect the princess, I would definitely go down with a stick and beat him!"

Prince Rui looked at Lin Shuangqing and picked up the story that Emperor Yongle had forgotten: "So, the crown princess did not lie, but this Miss Lin had said earlier that the crown princess had returned to the side hall early, which really deceived her father."

After Chu Ruoxi arrogantly knew what Yang Sheng, the king of Rui, had done to him last time, he wanted to teach him a good lesson. At present, he jumped out and blamed Lin Shuangqing. He had a great intention to defend himself, but he was not ungrateful. How can he know what bad thoughts you are doing?

"Your Highness misunderstood. Sister Shuangqing did not mean to deceive the emperor. She must have said that to help Ruoxi get out of danger and protect me. Her intention was good. For a moment, she didn't expect that the crime of bullying the king was so far away."

Chu Ruoxi ignored the embarrassment in Prince Rui's face and turned to Emperor Yongle: "Today's matter is obviously that someone is deliberately framing me. If the emperor must help me decide and find out the black hand behind the scenes, or I'm afraid that the slander and framing of Ruoxi will continue in the future."

"Sister Ruoxi, don't be afraid. Tell me what the assassin who hurt you looks like. I'll catch him and help you vent your anger."

The king of Jin stood up and waved his fist. "With so many guards in the palace, I don't believe he can run."

Yongle Emperor's eyes flashed and comforted Chu Ruoxi: "What Ping'er said makes sense. Since Ruoxi has been framed, you can see the appearance of the assassin..."

"It was so dark that Ruoxi couldn't see it clearly."

"What weapon does the assassin use to fight against you? It's a knife, sword, or other hidden weapon." Prince Rui interrupted several times, but Emperor Yongle didn't say anything. On the contrary, the King of Jin said two silly words, which was recognized by him, and his heart was even more sad. He just wanted to perform well in front of Emperor Yongle and get his attention.

"It's a sword. With a flash of cold light in the dark, I can be pulled away by Dong Fu. If I hadn't been afraid that I would have pierced my chest with a sword."

"Is it a sword? So the assassination of your father is not the same as your assassin. Prince Rui took out a sleeve arrow from his body, "The assassin fired a secret arrow at his father. Fortunately, his father's power, this rat can't hurt his father."

"This... sleeve arrow..." Lin Shuangqing saw the sleeve arrow covering his mouth, glanced at Chu Ruoxi with a shocked face and stopped talking.

When Chu Ruoxi saw this sleeve arrow, his expression also changed greatly. The sleeve arrow in Prince Rui's hand was as small and exquisite as the mechanism set on his wrist!

"Have you seen this?" Prince Rui was refreshed and walked to Lin Shuangqing.

Emperor Yongle leaned forward and was interested in Lin Shuangqing's reaction: "Show her."

Lin Shuangqing asked Prince Rui: "Do you dare to ask Your Highness, is this really left by the person who assassinated the emperor?"

"Of course, what my father saw with his own eyes, how can there be a lie!"

Lin Shuangqing seemed to have an unspeakable secret. He looked at Chu Ruoxi and dared not say anything.

Seeing this, Chu Ruoxi sneered and said, "Sister Shuangqing wants to say that that thing is owned by Ruoxi, right?"

She raised her sleeves and wrapped the delicate and small machine around her wrist. "Yes, for my own safety, I do have sleeve arrows to defend myself, but the sleeve arrow in His Royal Highness's hand is not mine."

Is that right? Miss Lin has seen the same sleeve arrow as the one held by the crown princess? Prince Rui looked at her wrist, raised his eyebrows, and deliberately asked, "Where did the arrows in the prince's concubine's organs go?"

As soon as Yang Sheng, the king of Rui, said, there was a low voice of doubt in the hall. Chu Ruoxi hummed coldly: "In the end, His Royal Highness suspects that I am the assassin who assassinated the emperor. No matter how you explain it, you will say that I shot the sleeve arrow at the emperor, right?"

Prince Rui looked selfless and pleaded guilty to Chu Yuanshan first: "Please forgive me and the crown princess. I have no intention to target the crown princess, but all kinds of signs have pointed the suspicion of the assassin at the crown princess. I think that since it is not done by the crown princess, I should find out and help the crown princess wash it. Get rid of suspicion, so as not to be tongued afterwards.

Chu Ruoxi smiled and looked at Prince Rui. "So what Prince Rui did was to wash Ruoxi, but he didn't know how Prince Rui planned to prove Ruoxi's innocence?"

Chu Ruoxi said this and directly took the army of Prince Rui, making the prince unable to answer for a moment.

His original intention was to investigate Chu Ruoxi's sleeve arrows. Chu Ruoxi couldn't explain it clearly, but he was afraid that Chu Ruoxi could not get rid of the suspicion, but he didn't want to take a word on his face and be taken seriously by Chu Ruoxi. Knowing that she was a bully, he couldn't step down.

You can't say that I will help you prove that this sleeve arrow is not yours!

"The princess will not be an assassin. Even if this sleeve arrow is used to protect herself, it can't be explained that this is the princess's sleeve arrow. His Royal Highness is as wise as pearls, and he must help the princess clear the suspicion!"

Lin Shuangqing said extremely sincerely to Prince Rui. The unknown people only thought that she sincerely held anguish for Chu Ruoxi, but ignored her repeated mention of sleeve arrows like Chu Ruoxi.

"Miss Lin, don't worry, the clear man is self-clear, and I will never let anyone be wronged."

Prince Rui asked Emperor Yongle for an order: "I want to inform my father that the princess is my heavenly daughter-in-law. It is also difficult to convince people that she is suspected of assassinating my father. The minister dared me to ask my father to agree. If the princess can explain the sleeve arrow clearly, please ask my father to help her get rid of her injustice and seize the real murderer!"

Yang Sheng's few words were extremely reasonable, and it didn't mean much justice. Emperor Yongle nodded repeatedly, "What Shenger said is reasonable. Ruoxi said that you assassinated me, and I don't believe it. You tell me where your arrow has gone, or..." Yongle Di paused, "Or you didn't install the machine and are still in the house?"

Emperor Yongle's last sentence sold enough face to Chu Yuanshan, which was obviously helping Chu Ruoxi get rid of the crime. As long as she said and forgot to install it, is it possible that some people who are not so unsighted to go to the Duke of Dingguo to search.

Even if you search, Chu Yuanshan can do a lot of tampers in the middle.

Chu Ruoxi was so afraid of Emperor Chu Yuanshan that she was suddenly disappointed. She really hoped that the emperor would bite her and suppress the Chu family, force Chu Yuanshan to be angry, and the emperor and ministers would turn against him as soon as possible...

She smiled bitterly and said, "Ruoxi is grateful to be trusted by the emperor, but Ruoxi can't deceive the emperor. Ruoxi has shot out the sleeve arrow in the umbrella and has not stayed in the house."

As soon as she said this, everyone was in an uproar. Not to mention Chu Yuanshan, even the queen couldn't help scolding: "Ruoxi, do you know what you are talking about? Well, why did you shoot a sleeve arrow?

Chu Ruoxi thanked the queen's favoritism and said regardless of Chu Yuanshan's gloomy face and said, "Ruoxi didn't talk nonsense. The assassin took action against me. I couldn't sit back and wait for death, so I took the opportunity to shoot the sleeve arrow to save my life. I don't know if I didn't shoot it. Anyway, I shot it out."

"After telling my father and mother, Ruoxi's sister did not lie. What she said is true. My son can testify."

The King of Jin, who was sitting next to Chu Ruoxi, suddenly stood up and testified to Emperor Yongle.

The queen was in a very bad mood. Seeing such an idiot come out to make trouble, although she was worried that he would do bad things with good intentions. On the contrary, she linked her niece and couldn't help shouting, "King Jin, you were not there at that time. Don't know what happened, so don't come out to fool around. Is your father doing business?"

Prince Rui took the opportunity to suppress Yang Yiping: "Brother, this matter is very related. If you don't know the context of the matter, you'd better sit down for tea and ask your father to make a final determination."

Yang Yiping, the king of Jin, was very hard. He knelt at the feet of Emperor Yongle and flattened his mouth and was aggrieved: "Father, I don't understand why the emperor's brother took out an arrow and said that Ruoxi's sister stabbed his father. I also had the same sleeve arrow on his body. Can I say that others are the murderer of my father?"

I saw the king of Jin take out two sleeve arrows from his body, which was exactly the same as the king of Rui.

Don't say that Emperor Yongle saw it. He was very surprised. Even Chu Ruoxi himself was shocked when he saw the arrow Yang Yiping took out. What's going on? Is the assassin in the study Yang Yiping?

"Pinger, you...how did you have this arrow?" Emperor Yongle was stunned and looked up and down at Yang Yiping. He was worried about whether his son was also targeted by the assassin.

"This was shot from Ruoxi's sister's wrist, but Ruoxi's sister is not the murderer of her father." The words of the King of Jin made Chu Ruoxi the focus of the audience again, and the corners of Prince Rui's mouth have even risen slightly...
