Foxi's heart sank, and she turned around in shock.

She nodded to Foxi from the bottom of her heart. She was also unbelievable when she first heard the news. She put her lips on Foxi's ear and whispered, "The man who had an affair is Su Hexuan, the son of the general who protects the country."

Foxi showed fear. The son of the general who protects the country, isn't that the younger brother of Princess Lin?

Slightly sideways, she asked in a low voice, "How is Su Hexuan now?"

Congxin shook her head slightly, "Su Hexuan insisted that he did not know Qu Xinlin, and said that he did not know how he fell into a coma. His Royal Highness Prince Lin arrested the two of them on the spot and is now going to invite the Emperor."

Foxi narrowed her eyes, "What did Qu Xinlin say?"

"Qu Xinlin also said that he did not know Su Hexuan." Seeing that Foxi wanted to get up, Congxin glanced at the hall and whispered, "The side bedroom is in a mess now. Princess, you'd better not join in the fun."

Foxi nodded to signal Congxin to leave, turned around and glanced at the people in the hall. Judging from the expressions of these people, they didn't think that the matter between Su Hexuan and Qu Xinlin was framed by her, right?

She glanced at those people coldly, then covered her eyes. Although she didn't know Su Hexuan, looking at the temperament of her sister Princess Lin, she thought that her brother, who was born of the same mother, would not be too bad. How could he do such a thing at the banquet?

[What's the hidden story? ]

[If Su Hexuan and Qu Xinlin get into trouble, who will be the beneficiary? ]

Foxi lowered her eyes, her hands rubbing unconsciously, and suddenly a hand covered it. Foxi knew it was Bei Mingchen, and looked up.

Bei Mingchen sat beside Foxi, holding Foxi tightly with one hand and stroking Foxi's head with the other, and said in an extremely gentle voice: "Don't think too much. When you are in a high position, you must always be vigilant. This incident can be regarded as a lesson for him."

Foxi looked directly at Bei Mingchen, his eyes moving, asking him with his eyes whether he knew the whole story of this matter?

Bei Mingchen smiled softly, put his hand on Foxi's head, leaned down and whispered in Foxi's ear: "Nantong National Security has been divided, Su Hexuan will inherit his father's position soon, and the power of the National Defense General should be weakened." Foxi

suddenly felt cold, her eyebrows were very low, and she tilted her head to put her lips on Bei Mingchen's ear. She could hear the fluctuation in her voice: "But why choose her? She is pregnant?"

Bei Mingchen shook his head lightly, rubbed Foxi's hair, and stood up with a smile.

Soon the emperor walked in, followed by Bei Minglin and Su Manyi.

Everyone stood up and knelt: "Greetings to the Emperor, long live the Emperor."

Foxi looked over and saw that Su Manyi's face was pale, but her eyes were very firm, while Bei Minglin just had a gloomy face. The two felt like strangers and walked over to sit down at a distance.

Bei Mingchen held Foxi's hand tightly and shook his head at her, signaling her not to disturb Su Manyi.

Foxi nodded with a pout.

Bei Mingchen had a doting look in his eyes, rubbed Foxi's head with one hand, and said in a very gentle voice: "Be good..."

The Emperor had just taken the seat, and before he could say anything, he saw a guard running in in a panic. The guard fell to his knees on the ground with a thud, looking very terrified.

"I, I see your Majesty."

The Emperor frowned and said with dissatisfaction: "Why are you so flustered?"

The guard immediately lowered his head and said in horror: "Report to the Emperor, His Royal Highness Prince Ning, His Royal Highness Prince Ning has passed away."

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall was panicked. Some people subconsciously looked at Foxi. They could not forget the murderous look of Foxi.

Foxi was also stunned.

[Bei Mingning is dead? ]

Bei Mingchen's eyes shrank, and he held Foxi's jade hand tightly. He violently swept over those who looked at Foxi, with warnings in his eyes.

Those people met Bei Mingchen's vicious eyes and turned their heads away in panic.

Foxi turned his head to look at Bei Mingchen.

Bei Mingchen smiled and signaled Foxi to ignore them.

The emperor stood up suddenly after hearing this and said in disbelief: "Say it again, what happened to Prince Ning?"

The guards lowered their heads even lower, afraid of the trembling voice: "Your Majesty, Prince Ning, he passed away."

The emperor was stunned, and everyone looked at the pale emperor, but no one dared to speak. At this moment, the hall was silent.

After a long time, the emperor sat down suddenly.

Everyone stood up, bowed and said respectfully: "I hope the emperor takes care of himself."

The emperor lowered his head slightly, without any emotion in his eyes. After a while, he raised his head, and his eyes were red, his face was forbearing, and his voice was full of anger and fluctuations: "I want to know what happened? How did it become like this? Who is it? Who is so bold?"

Seeing that the emperor was angry, everyone shrank their necks, fearing that they would be implicated.

The guards lowered their heads, and their whole bodies were shaking, "Report, report to the emperor, His Royal Highness Prince Ning was stabbed in the eye, and, stabbed in the chest..."

"Bold, let me find out who it is?" The emperor held his breath and roared angrily, and then he put his hands on the table, looking heartbroken.

The Queen quickly calmed the Emperor, "Your Majesty, please take care of yourself."

Everyone in the hall knelt on the ground and saluted, "Your Majesty, please take care of yourself."

In the entire hall, only Bei Mingchen and Foxi sat there without changing their expressions. Bei Mingchen held Foxi's hand tightly, his eyes full of thought.

Foxi thought about what happened tonight and felt that something was wrong.

The Emperor took a deep breath and said to the guards, "Bring Prince Ning up and let me examine him carefully."

"Yes." The guard responded and immediately retreated.

The Emperor held his forehead with his hand, his brows were wrinkled, and his expression was painful.

When Concubine Ning Jia saw the Emperor like this, a trace of worry flashed in her eyes, but it quickly disappeared.

The guards lifted up Bei Mingning's body and placed it in the center of the hall.

Foxi looked up and saw Bei Mingning covered with a white cloth with blood stains on it, which looked very creepy.

The emperor staggered down, his heart trembling with sorrow, and he reached out to uncover the white cloth.

Bei Mingning's bloody face was exposed to everyone. People with a timid heart would only take a glance and then look away, because it was really unbearable to watch.

After seeing this, Foxi's eyebrows wrinkled, his stomach churned, and he immediately covered his mouth and nose with his hands.

Bei Mingchen quickly turned Foxi's gaze away, "Don't look." He poured tea and handed it to Foxi, "Drink some water..."

Foxi covered her mouth and shook her head.

The emperor closed his eyes, then opened them after a while, scanning the hall, and his gaze stayed on Bei Mingchen and Foxi for two seconds. Bei Mingchen was holding Foxi's back, while Foxi covered her mouth, as if she wanted to vomit but couldn't.

The emperor frowned, with an unknown emotion in his eyes.

At this time, Prime Minister Ning stepped forward and knelt in front of the emperor, "Your Majesty, please accept my condolences. I will definitely find out the real murderer who killed His Royal Highness Prince Ning."

The emperor nodded, "We must find out. No matter who it is, I will punish him severely."

Prime Minister Ning saluted, "Yes." Then he stood up and investigated with the Minister of Justice in front of everyone.

The two looked around, and finally discussed. Prime Minister Ning said righteously, "Has the coroner not arrived yet?"

Foxi

rolled her eyes immediately. [Better pretending than me.]

Bei Mingchen's eyes were dark, one hand tightly holding Foxi's hand, and the other hand stroking it.

Not long after, an eunuch came in, followed by a middle-aged man.

The man knelt down and saluted: "Your Highness and Empress, long live the emperor, and a thousand years and a thousand years for the Empress."

The emperor said nothing, but waved his hand, signaling the coroner to hurry up and perform an autopsy.

The coroner stood up and saluted respectfully to Prime Minister Ning and the Minister of Justice, then put down his backpack, took out the tools from it, and uncovered the white cloth on Bei Mingning 's body.

Bei Mingchen immediately covered Foxi's eyes. Foxi blinked mischievously, and her long eyelashes swept up and down in Bei Mingchen's palm, making Bei Mingchen itchy.

Bei Mingchen leaned over and lowered his head, and said ambiguously: "Xi'er is really naughty, but have you been lonely these two days?"

Foxi turned her head and looked at the man with a smirk sinisterly.

[Only Bei Mingchen and the villains are hard to raise. ]

A smile spread across the corners of Bei Mingchen's lips.

Foxi grabbed Bei Mingchen's hand that was blocking her eyes and continued to look forward.

[Is this a live autopsy? ]

[I don't know how good this guy's skills are. If he has good skills, please ask him to go to Prince Chen's Mansion to help cut the mutton. The mutton, which is as thin as a cicada's wing, will be boiled in a spicy pot. ]

Foxi drooled as she thought about it, and quickly inhaled it and wiped her lips with her hands.

Bei Mingchen turned Foxi's head to face him helplessly, and said in an unhappy tone: "Am I not as good-looking as him? Do you believe that this king will kill him now?"

Foxi's eyes were shining with stars.

[This sick look really penetrated my heart.

Bei Mingchen: "..."

The coroner took a piece of cloth from Bei Mingning's hand, put the cloth on a plate, knelt down and held the plate high, and said in a very respectful tone: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Prince Ning was attacked by someone. The person first pierced His Royal Highness Prince Ning's eyes, and after His Royal Highness Prince Ning fell to the ground in pain, she gave him a fatal blow." The emperor raised

his head, looking very dull, and glanced at him indifferently. Looking at the flat plate held high by the coroner, "What is this?"

The coroner lowered his head slightly and said respectfully: "This was taken out from the palm of His Royal Highness Prince Ning. I think His Royal Highness Prince Ning tore it off in panic when he was attacked by the murderer."

The emperor looked at the small piece of cloth in the flat plate and frowned slightly, "Check whose clothes this is for me."

Bei Mingchen's face became gloomy after seeing the piece of cloth, and his eyes became dimmer and dimmer. After

seeing the cloth clearly, Fuxi's pupils shrank and she subconsciously looked at Bei Mingchen's clothes.

[Bei Mingchen killed him? 】

Prime Minister Ning took the plate and looked at it for a while, then he knelt on the ground in panic as if he was too frightened, "Your Majesty."

The emperor asked in confusion: "Prime Minister Ning, did you recognize whose clothes this cloth belongs to?"

Prime Minister Ning turned his head to look at Bei Mingchen and Foxi who were sitting on the side, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

When he looked at it, other people in the hall followed his line of sight and looked over, and then they were all surprised. Isn't the color of the clothes that His Royal Highness Prince Chen and Princess Chen are wearing today the same color as that piece of cloth?

Could it be that His Royal Highness Prince Chen killed His Royal Highness Prince Ning?

Bei Mingchen was being stared at by everyone, and he raised his cold eyes, as if a cold light shot out, and his eyes swept over fiercely, and his whole body exuded a violent aura.

Everyone looked away in panic, with some fear on their faces, fearing that Bei Mingchen would be furious.

The emperor looked in the direction of Prime Minister Ning's gaze, then looked away, "Prime Minister Ning, feel free to say what you want to say."

Prime Minister Ning bowed his head, swallowed his saliva, and said, "Your Majesty, I think this fabric looks very similar to the clothes worn by His Royal Highness Prince Chen and Princess Chen." "

After these words, the hall fell silent. Everyone held their breath, fearing that the emperor or Prince Chen would be furious and

implicate innocent people. At this moment, they hoped that they were transparent. Concubine Ning Jia was hesitant for a moment. After a moment of silence, she raised her eyes and glanced at Bei Mingchen and Foxi, then fixed her gaze on the emperor. She was slightly absent-minded, and then laughed.

Su Manyi's mind was already in a mess, and she didn't have much time to think about what happened in the hall, but she still knew what had happened. Now she heard these words again, hesitated for a moment, and looked at Foxi with an uneasy expression.

The emperor looked at Prime Minister Ning who was kneeling in the hall, and glanced at Bei Mingchen and Foxi who were sitting on the side, pretending to be angry and said, "Prime Minister Ning, do you know what you are talking about?"

Prime Minister Ning lowered his head even lower, "Your Majesty, this old minister is not wrong. "

The emperor pondered for a moment, and said with a bit of majesty in his tone: "Prime Minister Ning is really old and confused. Prince Chen has been discussing state affairs with me since he entered the palace, and he has never left."

Bei Minghuai, who was standing on the side, showed a cold look. Does the emperor want to get rid of Foxi?

He really overestimates his own abilities.

Prime Minister Ning glanced at Bei Mingchen and Foxi again, and saw that the two were calm and looked at him with interest. He snorted silently and continued to say to the emperor: "In this case, he is not His Royal Highness Prince Chen."

Then he looked at Foxi, "I wonder where Princess Chen went just now? Is there any witness? "

Things have come to this point. Although Foxi was a little confused, she still knew one thing, that is, these people wanted to kill her tonight.

Congxin knelt down and crawled forward a step, knocking her head on the ground, "I have been with the princess all the time, and I can testify for the princess."

Prime Minister Ning seemed to have heard a joke and sneered, "You are from the Prince Chen's Mansion, so you will naturally side with your own master..."

Before Prime Minister Ning finished speaking, he heard Bei Minghuai's voice: "Princess Chen always speaks with reason and evidence, she would never do such a thing?"

Prime Minister Ning looked at Bei Minghuai, "Your Highness, I don't want to wrongly accuse Princess Chen, but this fabric..."

Su Manyi said coldly: "Princess Chen has been with me just now, does Prime Minister Ning have any objection?"

Before Prime Minister Ning could speak, Bei Minglin, who was standing beside Su Manyi, stood up and said in surprise: "Manyi, this is a matter of life and death. You can't lie to your father just because you are on good terms with Princess Chen. You were clearly with me just now." Su Manyi

... Yiming's eyes widened, "You're talking nonsense, I was just outside the palace with Princess Chen..." When he said this, a gleam in his eyes, "I was also knocked into the pond by a palace maid. If you don't believe me, just check it out."

Bei Minglin put his hand on Su Manyi's forehead and said worriedly, "Manyi, are you angry about Hexuan? Do you know what you are talking about? If you were knocked into the pond, how come the brocade dress you were wearing was dry? If you changed into a dry one, how come it looks exactly the same as the original one?"

Su Manyi opened her mouth to explain, but when the words came to her lips, she realized how pale and powerless what she was about to say was. What happened tonight flashed through her mind. A big tree attracts the wind, so is it time to cut the weeds and uproot them now?

He looked at Foxi apologetically, then closed his eyes in despair.

Bei Minglin supported Su Manyi's arm, looking anxious, "Father, please forgive Manyi. She must have been angry about Su Hexuan's matter."

The emperor waved his hand, signaling Bei Minglin to take Su Manyi away.

Prime Minister Ning struck while the iron was hot and said, "Many ministers saw Princess Chen beating His Royal Highness Prince Ning in public. Would Princess Chen kill His Royal Highness Prince Ning when no one was around?"

The Prime Minister's wife stood up straight and said, "Your Majesty, I first heard Princess Chen insult Concubine Laughter, then I saw her beating His Royal Highness Prince Ning, and she intended to kill His Royal Highness Prince Ning in the hall, but was stopped by Princess Lin. Then Concubine Laughter had an affair with Su Hexuan, and His Royal Highness Ning..."

At this point, people in the hall began to talk.

Everyone thought that Princess Chen was really vicious, relying on His Royal Highness Prince Chen to support her and she was fearless, but Concubine Laughter was pregnant.

Princess Lin advised her with good intentions, but she didn't expect that her own brother would be implicated. But what was even more pitiful was His Royal Highness Prince Ning, who was kicked to the ground just when he walked past her, and now he is dead.

Foxi glanced at the people in the hall with her eyes, smiled sarcastically, then broke free of her hand and clapped her hands, "Oh, what a good show." Then she stood up and looked at everyone, including the emperor above, and said in a very sarcastic tone: "I really didn't expect that someone would set up such a big plan for me. It's really a good plan."

Bei Mingchen also stood up, holding Foxi's hand, and said in a violent voice: "It seems that I have been too kind in the past two months, letting you think that you can climb over my head."

Then he glanced at Prime Minister Ning coldly, his eyes as cold as a sharp blade, "I advise the Prime Minister to think clearly before speaking, and don't gossip."

After speaking, he lowered his head to look at Foxi, and his voice changed drastically: "How long has it been since the tiger that my concubine killed last year had meat? "

Prime Minister Ning shuddered, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty dare not."

The emperor's face was unfriendly. Bei Mingchen dared to be so presumptuous in public, which showed that he did not take him seriously at all.

Now that things have come to this, how can he back down? He said angrily: "Come here, take the maid of Princess Chen away and torture her severely."

"Yes." Immediately, the guards came forward to arrest Congxin.

Foxi said coldly: "Who dares?"

The emperor was shocked when he heard it. Bei Mingchen did not take him seriously, but now even Foxi dared to refute him in public. If he did not take Foxi down today, how could he establish his prestige in front of these ministers in the future.

He slammed the table angrily and shouted in a furious voice: "Rebellion, Princess Chen has committed treason, put Princess Chen in prison."

Bei Mingchen raised his foot and kicked down the table and chair in front of him, and the table and chair hit the guards who were about to step forward. Then Bei Mingchen said coldly: "I want to see who dares to step forward?"

After that, he swept towards the emperor violently and unrulyly, "If the emperor wants to deal with my princess, shouldn't he ask me if I am willing? "The emperor almost couldn't catch his breath. He was shaking with anger. He suppressed his anger and said in a trembling and angry voice: "Today's matter has been made clear. Foxi is the murderer of Bei Mingning. Is the prince going to hide the criminal?"

Bei Mingchen stroked Foxi's hand and smiled at her dotingly. His voice was very inconsistent with his expression.

"Your Majesty should be glad that he died like this. Otherwise, for what he did, I will kill him with a thousand cuts." He straightened Foxi's hair and stroked Foxi's cheek.

"My princess has always had a bad temper. I can't bear to anger her. Who gave you the courage to provoke her?"
