The person who spoke was Zheng Ranran's sister-in-law, Wu Shuyu.
When everyone heard this, they all knew that this was the Zheng family's young lady supporting her sister-in-law!
Just now, the servants searched Linglong Garden without any care and lost face.
At this time, of course the entire palace has to be dragged into this, so that no one can laugh at anyone else!
Si Jinxing looked at Zheng Ranran. Such a calm and peaceful woman who did not care about the world, but she had given her true love to the wrong person, Qi Nanyan.
Fortunately, her family members were able to protect her wholeheartedly, so she wouldn't be attacked from all sides!
In this world, what crushes a person may not be outsiders, but a family member's sarcasm, a cold look, or a lack of care...
When Si Jinxing thought of this, he thought of the original owner.
Wasn't that girl enduring the cruel methods of the Zhou family while suffering from Si Junshan's disdain and indifference?
Thinking of this, Si Jinxing couldn't help but look at Si Jinyue beside him.
Perhaps, the day to meet Zhou is not far away!
After hearing what Wu Shuyu said, Qi Nanyan didn't blame her for interrupting him. He immediately instructed the housekeeper:
"Go, search all the courtyards in the mansion carefully inside and out!"
After he finished speaking, Princess Xuanning said:
"Brother Emperor, I wonder if I could ask a few ladies to come along so we can get the latest news as soon as possible?"
Qi Nanyue agreed upon hearing this. His cousin has always been considerate. How could she be going there just to watch the fun?
He must be supervising the actions of the servants in the palace!
At this moment, Si Jinyue felt as if a thorn was on her back. She sat in the chair, feeling extremely uncomfortable all over.
The baby in her belly was moving non-stop, which made her even more upset!
Si Jinyue picked up a handkerchief and wiped away the thin layer of sweat oozing from her forehead. She felt that today's events seemed increasingly out of her control...
Qi Nanyan, who was standing by, saw that her face was pale and her eyebrows were tightly furrowed. He couldn't help but ask:
"Princess, why are you so worried and look so unhappy? What's wrong with you?"
Si Jinyue was immersed in her own thoughts and didn't hear what Qi Nanyue said!
Finally, it was Chunyu beside her who gently pulled her sleeve and she came back to her senses.
She pointed to her bulging belly and said:
"It's this little thing that keeps kicking my belly. I'm wondering what will happen to the baby I give birth to in the future."
Qi Nanyan heard this, but before he could say anything, he heard Liu Yangfeng snort coldly from the opposite side:
How can a princess be so shameless as to speak so openly and incessantly in front of everyone?"
When these words were spoken, everyone in the room was shocked!
How could the women in the hall have imagined that the Prime Minister would dare to scold Princess Rui?
Si Jinxing tried so hard to suppress her laughter that she almost got internal injuries!
It was the first time she felt that this old man Liu was a master at arguing with people!
Even, a little cute!
Qi Nanyan knew that Liu Yangfeng was angry, so he said to Si Jinyue:
"From now on, you should also consider the occasion when speaking."
Upon hearing this, Si Jinyue was not angry. Instead, she looked at Liu Yangfeng with a guilty look on her face and said:
"Thank you, Prime Minister Liu, for your teachings. Jinyue will definitely keep them in mind."
Seeing her being so humble, Liu Yangfeng felt like he was punching cotton!
He just snorted coldly and couldn't say another word.
Everyone saw this and sided with Si Jinyue:
"The princess has such a good temper!"
"Even though Lord Liu holds the position of Prime Minister, the princess is still a member of the royal family. There should be a hierarchy!"
"This kind of person can't be tolerated, otherwise he will be even more arrogant next time!"
"I think Prime Minister Liu is heartbroken over the loss of his beloved grandson, and is taking his anger out on the princess!"
"No wonder Liu Fangzhi dared to talk about the princess in private. It seems someone in the family is the leader in being disrespectful!"
.......
Although Liu Yangfeng is old, his hearing is not bad.
When he heard the women's discussion, especially the last sentence, he immediately shouted at them:
"What are you guys talking about? I've been an official for decades. When have I ever failed to observe etiquette and distinguish between high and low?
I have devoted all my energy to Long Yin for decades, and even the current empress dowager sympathizes with me and refuses to scold me.
Even your father wouldn't dare to slander me like this!
How dare you, a few girls from the boudoir, throw dirty water on me!
In that case, come with me later to the Emperor and discuss this matter thoroughly!
I want to see if the laws of Longyin still apply to this matter. What is the punishment for framing an official of the imperial court? "
After all, Liu Yangfeng is a veteran minister who has been in the court for many years and served in three dynasties!
His righteous rebuke immediately frightened the young ladies who were inexperienced in the world and made them take two steps back and fall silent.
Seeing this, Qi Nanyan's eyes darkened slightly.
Today, I am afraid that I have offended the old prime minister badly.
He was very angry. He needed Prime Minister Liu's help in that matter. Was this matter really irreversible?
Qi Nanyan concealed his thoughts and was about to say a few words to comfort him, but he heard a cry from outside the door:
"Your Highness! I am too embarrassed to stay in your palace!"
Immediately, a woman in a pink cloak entered the hall!
As soon as she entered the room, she saw that everyone in the hall had strange expressions, so she quickly fell silent. She just sobbed and bowed to Qi Nanyue and Si Jinyue, then stood aside without saying a word.
This person is none other than Consort Liu of Prince Rui’s Mansion.
Seeing her like this, Qi Nanyan felt very annoyed and said coldly:
"Why are you crying? Why are you coming here instead of just resting in your yard?"
Upon hearing this, Concubine Liu could no longer hold back. She wiped the tears from her face with a handkerchief and cried,
"Your Majesty, please tell me what I did wrong.
You actually want to let the servants of the palace search my yard?
Now that the yard has been turned upside down, where else can I go?"
After hearing this, Qi Nanyue remembered that the servants in the mansion were searching the backyard one by one.
He was too lazy to explain at this time and just said:
"In that case, you can rest here for a while."
Concubine Liu lowered her eyes slightly, glanced around carefully, then stood quietly aside without saying a word.
How could she not know what happened in the palace?
There was silence in the flower hall, and everyone was full of doubts. The death of Miss Liu was really strange!
Just then, there was a noisy sound of footsteps outside the door.
Immediately afterwards, the door curtain fluttered, and the housekeeper, Doctor Du, Princess Xuanning, and several young ladies who went with them came in one after another!
What was different from the previous search of Linglong Garden was that Doctor Du was holding a tray in his hand this time!
There was something on the plate!
