Peach Blossom

Chapter 34 Secretly Make a Storm

The emperor patted one hand on the armrest of the dragon chair and shouted angrily, "What the hell is going on?"

The civil and military officials were silent, lowered their heads, and glanced at several people with ugly faces from time to time. Today, the emperor wanted to decide whether to welcome the sixth princess of Habi as a concubine. Unexpectedly, Ran Shuxuan and Ran Murui knelt on the ground and called the emperor to be the master for them, and extremely resolutely invited the emperor to enter the palace. Then Ran Muri complained of several people's insults to her in tears.

Xiahouze looked at her astringently, as if falling into an ice cellar: You know my feelings for you. When you stand naked in front of me, can I be indifferent?

Xiahou's face turned red, and he miscalculated. When he achieved great things, this move was tantamount to ruining his reputation.

Xiahou Song's face was green. When she came to him, it was enchanting and seductive. Which man could refuse? But he didn't want to fall into the trap that had been laid. He glanced coldly at Xia Houchen's expressionless face: Could it be that you are the originator of all this?

Although Xia Houchen's expression was suppressed, his heart couldn't help making noise. It turned out that they had such a satisfactory calculation. Although the accusation against him was an attempt, the abduction of people was not much better.

What made him gritt his teeth was that she ate the Xiahou family, that is to say, the men of the Xiahou family stared at Yin Pianxuan. If Xiahou Ze was affectionate with her and could not be controlled, it was inevitable, but even Uncle Jiu Wang was involved in it, which was tantamount to slapped him fiercely.

Ran Shuxuan snorted coldly: "Your Majesty, the Jin Dynasty has always had clear rewards and punishments. Now that the royal clan has committed such a shameful crime, I don't know if the emperor will cover up for selfishness?"

The emperor's old face turned red, and his three sons and one imperial brother were involved. It was difficult not to be selfish. The crime of bullying was sentenced to cane, and the serious one was sentenced to hanging. For a moment of embarrassment, he couldn't help looking at Yin Zhengliang and signaled that he wanted to think.

Yin Zhengliang wiped his cold sweat and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, there are still many doubts about this matter. It's better to be settled after a thorough investigation by the old minister."

The emperor was about to agree, and Ran Shuxuan sneered: "I didn't expect that the Jin Dynasty was so lame. The prince and the prince wanted to pass the blame for such things. Wouldn't the world be laughed at if it spread out? The civil and military officials are here. If the emperor doesn't give me a message to the six princesses of Habi, I, Habi and the Jin Dynasty can only meet each other and revitalise the world's soldiers to fight against the Jin Dynasty.

Xiahouze smiled bitterly and looked at her sadly: "Pianxuan, are you treating me like this? Is that what you want?"

"No, she doesn't deserve it!" Xia Houchen said coldly, "She is just a lowly woman, and she doesn't deserve it at all!" I abcroached people, just ridiculously think that the woman in front of me is my princess. Of course, I regret that I didn't kill you. You dressed up as her, stole her name, and insulted her reputation. It's not enough for you to die a hundred times!"

Ran Muring smiled shamefully: "So what? What you have done to me is true. Do you still want to deny it? Didn't the prince want me that night? Don't you think of me as her? What's more, I have never said that I am Yin Piaoxuan. From beginning to end, I have been Ran Muring, the sixth princess of Habi. Don't use these as an excuse. Everyone knows that the emperor violates the law and commits the same crime as the common people.

As soon as the voice came out, Xia Houze's face turned blue and white. He actually regarded her as a swing, and Xia Hou Song and Xia Hou Mian beside him were even more angry. They were so easily played with by others in the palm of their hands.

Xiahouchen narrowed his eyes slightly and directly went up to pull off her red scarf: "When I saw you that day, I always wondered why you kept covering your face, because you were not her at all!"

She smiled faintly and did not hide it: "It's just that you have always been affectionate!"

Xiahouze stared at her face. Her delicate face was seven or eight times similar to her, but it was not her. Looking closely, the charm was far from her. He kept shaking his head: "You are not her, you are not her!"

Ran Shuxuan raised his eyebrows: "What does the woman you are talking about have to do with us?" At this point, we only want justice.

Xia Houchen took a deep breath: "The Jin Dynasty will return justice to you, but only if the matter is clear."

"What's clear? Isn't that enough to condemn you?"

"Why should the third prince be anxious? Since it is a crime committed by me and others, as the royal family of the Jin Dynasty, how can we shirk it? Moreover, it is also arbitrary to easily determine the crime of bullying just by your words!" Xia Houchen shook his head slightly: "I want to confirm two things with the third prince. First, whether she is the sixth princess of Habi Kingdom; second, what is in this small porcelain bottle?"

He took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms and raised his hand. Seeing that Ran Shuxuan's face had changed, he arched his hand and said loudly, "Father, this matter is related to the long-term stability of the Jin Dynasty and the Habi Kingdom. Please also ask the third prince to give a reply to everyone in front of the courtiers!"

The emperor's heart settled down a little and coughed: "Can the third prince give everyone an explanation?"

"She is the sixth princess of Habi, and the prince of the porcelain bottle in the hand of Prince Yu doesn't know what it is?"

Xiahouchen smiled deeply: "It's a matter of great importance. In order to confirm what the third prince said, I have sent messengers to Habi country two days ago. I want to come to the sixth princess, but it has been known in a few days. As for this porcelain bottle, I have used some despicable means. If I found it in the sixth princess's room, I might as well ask the sixth princess to explain it.

Ran Shuxuan and Ran Murui looked at each other, and their faces were a little unnatural.

Xiahou Chen said unhurriedly, "If the sixth princess is stingy to explain, how about I demonstrate it to the princess and the civil and military officials?"

He didn't allow anyone to refuse. He immediately summoned a bodyguard and patted twice on the tip of the guard's nose in the palm of his hand. Before long, he saw that the bodyguard's eyes were blurred and his breath was uneven. Xia Houchen raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Sixth princess, why don't you guess what will happen next?"

Seeing Ran Murui bite her lip and say nothing, he said loudly, "What if the civil and military officials know that you have been insulted, what if you used this powder on the prince, the prince and the ninth uncle? What is the crime of pretending to be the sixth princess of Habi and drugging the prince and the prince? Come on, take down this bold woman!"

Everyone still didn't react. The bodyguard had come forward and detained Ran Murui. Ran Shuxuan shouted coldly: "Who dares to be rude to the sixth princess?"

"The third prince, do you turn a blind eye to the woman who intends to ignite the war between the two countries and have bad intentions? Or is this exactly the original intention of the third prince. Everything is under the instructions of the third prince, just to shame the Jin Dynasty and discredit me and others? If this purpose does not work, can you use it openly as an excuse to openly lead the world's war to the Jin Dynasty?

As soon as this came out, the court was in an uproar. Ran Shuxuan was angry and shouted, "Don't spit people with blood. It's you who made mistakes first, you--"

"Third Prince!" Xiahou Chen interrupted him coldly: "Third prince, please don't be impatient. When my envoy to Habi returns, everything will be revealed! People escorted the third prince back to the embassy and protected the third prince. As for this unidentified woman, she was immediately put in prison on suspicion of murdering my princess, and I want to try her in person.

His fierce behavior made Ran Shuxuan and Ran Murui have no room for resistance at all. For a moment, the bodyguards have pushed the two down and calmed down in the court. Xiahou Chen coughed dryly: "Father, how do you think we deal with this?"

The emperor brushed his beard and nodded admiringly: "Okay!"

He added: "This matter must not be simple. I asked my father to immediately order the Prime Minister to thoroughly investigate this matter, and also investigate the ulicious people in the court, and punish it severely!"

"Good!"

————————————————————————

In the imperial study, the atmosphere was extremely deadlocked. The emperor's unspout breath in the court poured out. He pointed to several people's noses and scolded. He sat down angrily and presented a cup of tea at the right time: "Your Majesty, calm down!"

He sighed and took a sip of tea: "If it hadn't been for Chen'er's foresight this time, you would have been discredited and become the laughingstock of the Jin Dynasty. If you were easily punished, you would have become the sinners of the war between the two countries. Chen'er, when will the messenger you sent come back?

"Father!" Xia Houchen said lightly, "I didn't send an envoy, but just blacked Ran Shuxuan!"

Several people took a deep breath, and the emperor shook his head with a smile: "Fortunately, is it true that the porcelain bottle in your hand is also fake?"

Xia Houchen shook his head gently: "No, the porcelain bottle was indeed stolen from Ran Muring's room. Because the minister found that she was not Yin Pianxuan that night, he sent someone to pay close attention to her every move. What is the effect of the medicine in the porcelain bottle? I think the two royal brothers and Uncle Jiu have learned it.

The emperor swept several people's embarrassed faces and sighed: "How did you know that she was not Yin Pianxuan? I'm afraid it's hard to distinguish even the Prime Minister!"

Xiahouchen half raised his eyebrows: "If your father is curious, you might as well escort the woman up now and take a closer look!"

He hesitated for a moment and hurried back to bring someone.
