Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 868

People present had only heard half of the story and they were all surprised. Yun Shang's eyes fell on Hua Yutong, who was standing quietly aside. Yun Shang kept silent for a moment and then she smiled gently. She then said with hesitation, "It's just that this reason is not appropriate to say it in front of so many people..."

Xia Huanyu frowned and raised his hand, "It's related to the lives of the two important officials. The Crown Princess doesn't have to mind it. Just say it."

Yun Shang kept silent for a while and said, "I don't think it's a good idea to talk about it in front of so many people, because it involves the affairs between the seventh Prince and the seventh princess. I have to ask for the opinions of both of them anyway."

Xia Houjing and Hua Yutong looked at each other. Xia Houjing said indifferently, "Your Highness, you don't have to hide anything. Just tell us."

Yun Shang smiled and nodded, "Then I'll tell you. Everyone knows that the seventh princess is Lord Hua Guo's niece and we know each other very well. We are good friends, the seventh princess and the seventh Prince have been married for more than half a year. They seem to be in harmony on the surface, but in fact, the seventh Prince is very cold to the seventh princess. During this half a year, the seventh Prince has never stepped into the room of the seventh princess."

Hearing Yun Shang's words, many people in the hall looked embarrassed. They looked at each other and lowered their heads in a hurry.

Hua Yutong's face turned red. She wanted to say something, but considering that she was in the Taiji Palace, she had to give up.

Yun Shang continued, "The seventh princess has complained to me over and over again. Although I'm Crown Princess, I'm also a close friend of her. I'm defending her. I always feel that a good woman like the seventh princess is worth being treated with all his heart. Therefore, I'm dissatisfied with the seventh Prince' punishment."

"The last time I expressed my dissatisfaction with the seventh Prince was yesterday. The reason is that the day before yesterday, I asked someone to pick up some Osmanthus fragrans and make crystal osmanthus cakes. Thinking that the seventh princess likes sweet food, I asked someone to send them to the seventh Prince' mansion. When my servants sent the things, they happened to meet the seventh Prince back. He said that he would send the crystal osmanthus cakes to the seventh princess, and my servants gave the cakes to the seventh Prince. Unexpectedly, the seventh Prince didn't send the cakes to the seventh princess. He just asked the seventh princess to come to Crown Prince's Mansion. As soon as I heard what the seventh princess said, I thought that since the seventh Prince asked her to come to Crown Prince's Mansion, he must not have forgotten it. He still remembered about the cakes, but he did not hand them over. It was too strange, so I complained about this in front of the seventh princess.

Yun Shang's smile didn't fade away. She raised her head and looked at the official who had spoken earlier. "Your Highness, do you think I will kill two people because of these things and then frame the seventh Prince?"

"Well..." the official didn't know how to answer. He hesitated for a long time before he said abruptly, "These are just your one-sided words. Who knows whether you are telling the truth or not?"

Yun Shang smiled and turned to Xia Huanyu, "It's not difficult to know whether it's true or not. I didn't want to mention it, but in order to prove my innocence, I have to do it."

"Oh?" raising his eyebrows, Xia Huanyu looked at Yun Shang and asked, "What method?"

Biting her lips, Yun Shang kept silent for a while and said, "It's very simple. Madams in the imperial palace will check whether the seventh princess is a virgin or not. Then you will know whether what I said is true or not."

As soon as Yun Shang finished speaking, Hua Yutong turned pale first.

Yun Shang looked at Hua Yutong indifferently. She happened to see Empress Hua looking at her in shock. When Yun Shang's eyes met hers, she quickly looked away.

[5 S ] rubbed the jade pendant on her waist and felt a little depressed. If I © ] hadn't betrayed her, she wouldn't have pushed her out. She was never a kind person. She was only good to those who treated her sincerely.

Xia Houjing looked at Yun Shang. His eyes were deep, but his expression didn't change at all. No one could see what he was thinking.

"Liu Wenan, take the seventh princess to the side hall and find a madam to examine her carefully," Xia Huanyu said.

Whispers came from behind, but Yun Shang just lowered her head as if she couldn't hear them. Liu Wenan's voice came from behind, "The seventh princess, please."

Yun Shang heard Hua Yutong's heavy breath, but her heart was as cold as ice. She knew how the old madams in the palace checked whether the woman was a virgin or not. However, when Hua Yutong entered the Taiji Palace and said that she was dissatisfied with the seventh Prince and framed the seventh Prince with murder, the friendship between both of them had been broken.

When Hua Yutong chose to stand beside the seventh Prince, she had become her enemy. She, Ning Yun Shang, was never softhearted to her enemies.

After a short while, Hua Yutong followed Liu Wenan back to the hall. Yun Shang looked at her, only to find that her face was very pale, and her eyes were empty. There was a faint trace of blood, and her body was trembling slightly.

Yun Shang turned to look at the gold dragon carved on the pillar in the hall.

"Your Majesty, as the Crown Princess said, the seventh princess is still a virgin," Liu Wenan's voice rang out in the hall, plain and emotionless.

Whispers rose in the hall again. Xia Huanyu's eyes swept across the crowd and finally fell on Xia Houjing. "Your Highness, what else do you want to say?"

Xia Houjing remained silent for a moment, and he looked indifferent.

"Physical evidence?" Xia Huanyu looked at Wang Yuanjun indifferently, "What kind of evidence is it?"

Hearing this, Wang Yuanjun quickly took out a memorial from his sleeve and said, "It was found in the study of the Wei clan. It was Lord Wei, who had watched the heavenly phenomenon a few days ago and calculated it. He wanted to present it to your majesty, but he didn't expect that he would suffer this..."

"Submit it to me," Xia Huanyu raised his voice.

Liu Wenan walked to Wang Yuanjun in a hurry and took the memorial. He walked slowly to the Dragon chair and handed it over to the Emperor.

Xia Huanyu took it and opened it. He frowned and looked at it carefully. After a while, he handed the memorial back to Liu Wenan and said, "Read it."

"The purple star light is getting weaker. I'm afraid that your majesty will be hurt. The one who can affect the light of the emperor star is a new star in the south. It was found in May last year. The star's light gradually became full and seemed to surpass the light of the emperor star."

The officials in the hall whispered again.

Yun Shang heard the whispers, the Crown Prince...

Yun Shang looked at Xia Houjing, who was still calm, and sneered. It turned out to be here.

Since ancient times, what an emperor feared most was the instability of the throne, even if it was his son who threatened him. Xia Houjing must have known it very well, so he did it on purpose.

"I've asked Lord Wei's wife, and she said that he had submitted this memorial twice, but for some reason, it did not attract your majesty's attention. A few days ago, he saw that the light of the new star became brighter, so he quickly wrote another one. But before he could submit it, something happened," Wang Yuanjun said softly.

"It has been submitted twice, but why haven't I seen any of them?" asked Xia Huanyu. He held the handrail of the Dragon chair tightly and narrowed his eyes slightly. The scar on his face showed the dignity of majesty.
