The Legend of the Resourceful Princess

"What's going on?" On the throne, the emperor opened his mouth, and the person asking was Princess Die Xiang, "When did Seventh Princess eat arsenic? How do you know? " At this moment, everyone was most curious about the Emperor's problem.

They looked at Mu Ru Yue and then at Princess Die Xiang and couldn't help but sigh inwardly. At the end of the day, they had only caused trouble for men. The matter of the main marriage of the Xi Xiang County was naturally not hidden. After all, the empress dowager had already sent people to the estate, but the Seventh Princess was fierce and the Seventh Prince didn't do anything, so he was chased out.

This matter was a huge joke in the capital recently. If it wasn't for the fact that Princess Dian Xiang was a popular person by the empress dowager's side, the news would have spread like wildfire. However, due to the empress dowager's face, it didn't mean that anyone would be implicated, which was why nothing was leaked out.

Princess Die Xiang had disappeared without a trace these few days. Now that she had suddenly appeared, it was likely that she would have a fight with Mu Ru Yue.

"In reply to the emperor, this subject saw with my own eyes that day that the Seventh Princess had eaten arsenic in front of everyone in the palace, and she was not even injured in the slightest. "Moreover, it was said that her personality changed drastically when she came to the Seventh Prince's Mansion. I dare to suspect that the Seventh Prince's wife was simply switched out for someone else!"

Princess Die Xiang's words were loud and clear as if she already had evidence.

When Mu Ru Yue heard that, her heart skipped a beat. But very quickly, she wanted to laugh. She was not the same soul as the master of this body, but that was an illusion. If it hadn't happened to her, she wouldn't have believed it.

Princess Die Xiang naturally didn't know either. It was likely that Princess Die Xiang wanted to pin some sort of title on her, right?

Mu Ru Yue thought and didn't move. She still had not figured out what these people were trying to do. If he recklessly tried to explain, it would only cause him to become passive.

"This King has yet to say anything on his own whether or not there is a problem with This King's consort, and there is no need for others to interfere." To the side, Feng Li opened his mouth. His tone was casual, but it also carried a bit of ill intent. This caused Princess Die Xiang's face to go pale.

"Your Majesty, I just want to find out if Seventh Princess really stole my Phoenix-Tail Zither after she entered the palace." You must know that this Phoenix Tail Zither is something that is hard to come by in this world. " The Queen hurriedly said when she saw that Princess Dian Xiang had completely changed the topic.

With that, she looked at Mu Ru Yue with a lovable gaze. "Seventh Princess, I know you don't like me, but I will give you the Phoenix's Tail Zither to give to your little sister. If you get it, then take it out. I won't pursue this matter."

"The empress decided my crime with just these words? If that's the case, then this life of mine is truly worthless, and my title of Seventh Princess is even more useless. " Mu Ru Yue sniggered.

"What do you mean?" The Queen frowned.

Mu Ru Yue finally stopped enduring. She didn't need to be cautious as long as they weren't going to talk about how she was immune to poisons. Especially slandering her for stealing a famous zither. Thinking this, Mu Ru Yue stood up and said respectfully, "Your majesty, esteemed empress. Even though I, Mu Ru Yue, am not a talented girl, I, as a person who loves the zither, won't do something as disgraceful as stealing a famous zither. "

"In that case, how do you explain why you won against Nalan Ruoxue in the fight?" The empress spoke, but the words made her regret her decision.

"I was fair and square in my victory over the other party. Did I break the law?" These words of ridicule made the empress's face turn red, "Don't speak nonsense. If you really have the ability, then there is naturally no problem. However, according to my knowledge, you did not have any talent when you were with the Mu Rong family."

"I've heard of the empress being kind and benevolent before, but now I feel like rumors aren't that plausible." "The empress didn't see it with her own eyes and dared to confirm it as real?"

Murong Yue asked.

The empress's face darkened when she heard this. "Are you saying I'm heartless?"

"This was said by the Empress herself. I was only making a reasonable excuse." Mu Ru Yue asked.

"Explanation?" The Empress laughed in anger. "Fine, since you say that you did not play any tricks during the competition, then, with the Nalan Clan's young lady here today, if you win against her, I will believe your words! Proof of your innocence. "

"I was originally innocent. I only relied on a bunch of random people to slander him. Why do I have to prove it? Or could it be that the empress likes to listen to the slanderous words of others before framing her own family? " Mu Ru Yue's attitude was calm. Once she said that, the empress's expression became even uglier.

"Alright." Seeing that the two of them were quarreling, the emperor chided, "Seventh Princess, as a junior, you disrespected the empress. This is your fault, do you recognize it?"

"Mu Ru Yue admits her wrongs." After saying that, Mu Ru Yue knelt down. Seeing her act this way, the Emperor nodded his head in satisfaction. Then, he said, "Since you are admitting your wrongs, from today onwards, I will punish your Duke's Mansion to close up for a month. No one is allowed to summon you."

"Yes." Mu Ru Yue was stunned. 'What's going on?'

"Your majesty!" The empress couldn't take it anymore. The emperor coldly swept her a glance before he said, "We will have the people of the clan investigate the matter of the Phoenix Tail Zither missing. If they find out, they will not forgive us. As for the Crown Princess's gift, you should change it for now. "

"Yes." The empress was still unwilling, but since the emperor had already spoken, she didn't dare to say anything else. They hadn't thought that they would just stop pursuing the matter. Furthermore, the matter regarding Mu Ru Yue that Princess Die Xiang had mentioned earlier?

"Butterfly Xiang." The Emperor looked at Princess Die Xiang and called out.

"This subject's daughter is here."

"You are speaking nonsense and disturbing the audience. This Emperor punishes you. From today onwards, you are to eat and recite Buddhist chants by the empress dowager's side. You are not to walk freely within the palace." Princess Die Xiang's face paled as soon as the Emperor finished speaking. She was about to speak when she was frightened by a cold gaze from the Queen. She didn't dare to speak. He could only reply.

And this result was something that no one could believe. Shouldn't this matter be investigated to the end? What kind of medicine is the Emperor selling in his gourd?

Even the empress was incensed, much less the officials.

They should have started with the investigation of the missing Phoenix-Tail Zither in order to lead out the entire series of frame-up against Mu Ru Yue, but the result? The Emperor was actually making peace? What could escape his eyes in this palace?

The emperor clearly knew about her movements these past few days, but she still did it!

The Queen thought to herself, unable to quell her anger.

"I'm afraid you won't be able to see the reward you wanted. "Today is a joyous day, I shall give you a chance to renew your request." The emperor looked at Qin Shijing and said. When Qin Baijing heard this, he said with a twinkle in his eyes, "I heard that the Princess was in the arena that day and her melody was amazing. I think... May I ask for the princess consort to play that song? "

Qin Baijing's words brought everyone back to their senses.

It had to be known that this was what the empress meant just now.

The emperor looked at Qin Shijing and could not tell whether he was happy or angry. He only asked, "Are you sure?"

Qin Baijing nodded and stared straight at the emperor. After a long while, the emperor nodded and said, "Seventh Princess, are you willing to fulfill this wish of yours?"

This Qin Shijing was really from the empress's side! As Murong Yue thought this, she couldn't help but worry for Princess Wuyou. However, she still stood up and said, "In reply to your majesty, Mu Ru Yue is willing. However, I hope that you can borrow the zither. "

Mu Ru Yue walked out as she spoke.

Everyone looked at Mu Ru Yue with disbelief. He didn't expect that she would actually dare to do it. If she did, the matter of her stealing the Phoenix Tail Zither would be implemented. Feng Chen looked at Mu Ru Yue, who had agreed to Qin Qian's request on her own accord, and felt extremely flustered in her heart.
