Chapter 988 He can’t stand it anymore!
There are many different opinions in Shengjing City about the assassination of the third princess of the Thousand Islands Kingdom, and no conclusion has been reached yet.
At this moment, a bold statement suddenly emerged:
Some people speculated that the imperial concubine was jealous and afraid that the third princess of the Thousand Islands would take away the emperor's favor, so she sent someone to assassinate the third princess.
It just so happened that the imperial concubine had a group of Yulin Guards under her name. Those Yulin Guards were highly skilled in martial arts and they could easily disguise themselves as assassins to attack the third princess.
As soon as this statement came out, it was wildly dissed by the CP fans of the emperor and the concubine.
"She is just the third princess of a tiny country, not a fairy from heaven. How could the emperor want to take her into his harem after just meeting her once?!"
"If the emperor really liked her, she wouldn't have left the palace in disgrace the next day!"
"Do you really think that everyone can be as lucky as the Imperial Concubine and make the Emperor fall in love with her at first sight?"
"I'm unlucky enough to be targeted by a bad guy, but I still want to blame it on the imperial concubine. This is truly the most incredible fraud scene of the year!"
"Please, people from the Thousand Islands, please have some shame and stop flattering yourself!"
…
When Guan Ying heard these words, he almost thought there was something wrong with his ears.
He had people spread rumors in order to drag the imperial concubine into the water and force the Emperor of Dasheng to come forward and give an explanation.
But what’s wrong with these Shengjing people?
Instead of suspecting the imperial concubine, he scolded the Thousand Islands delegation!
Did these people's brains get crushed by the door? !
The outcome of the matter went against Guan Ying's plan.
But Guan Ying was unwilling to give up.
He went to the palace again to ask for an audience with Emperor Dasheng.
Luo Qinghan summoned Guan Ying to the West Warm Pavilion.
After Guan Ying greeted the emperor, he did not exchange pleasantries but went straight to the point.
"Your Majesty said he wanted to track down the whereabouts of the third princess. I wonder how the progress is going?"
There was a chessboard in front of Luo Qinghan, with some black and white chess pieces on it, which looked like they were left over from a recent game of chess.
He spoke slowly as he slowly picked up the chess pieces and put them into different chess boxes.
"It's still under investigation. If there are any results, I will have someone inform you as soon as possible. You just need to wait patiently."
Guan Ying said anxiously, "It's about the safety of the Third Princess. We really can't be at ease. Especially since we have heard some rumors about the Third Princess and the Imperial Concubine recently, we are even more worried about the safety of the Third Princess."
Luo Qinghan paused slightly.
"What does this have to do with the concubine?"
Guan Ying slowly delivered the speech he had prepared long ago.
“Your Majesty lives deep in the palace, and probably doesn’t know that the news of the third princess’ assassination has spread throughout Shengjing.
Now the people in the city are talking about this matter.
Some people speculated that it was the imperial concubine who murdered the third princess out of jealousy.
Of course, we believe that with the character of the imperial concubine, she would definitely not do such a cruel thing.
But what people say is scary!
If left unchecked, it will inevitably have a very bad impact on the reputation of the imperial concubine.
In order to clear the Imperial Concubine's name as soon as possible and restore her reputation, Your Majesty is requested to find out the truth as soon as possible and bring back the Third Princess!"
After hearing these words, Luo Qinghan's eyes gradually turned cold: "I will order people to conduct a thorough investigation to see who is spreading rumors and framing the imperial concubine? When I find this person, I will cut him into pieces!"
After saying that, he exerted force suddenly, and the black chess piece in his hand was directly destroyed by his internal force and shattered into powder.
The big beard on Guan Ying's face twitched slightly.
He coughed lightly and said, "Your Majesty, the most urgent task now should be to find out the truth as soon as possible and find the third princess. Other minor matters can wait and be investigated later."
Luo Qinghan said coldly: "The Imperial Concubine is the one I love the most in my heart. Normally, even if she loses a hair, I will feel distressed for a long time, not to mention that she is being framed like this now. This is definitely not a trivial matter for me. I must investigate it thoroughly immediately!"
Guan Ying really couldn't understand why the emperor in front of him, who looked cold and indifferent, was so love-minded and only cared about his concubine at this time.
Doesn't he think about the fact that the safety of the third princess is related to the diplomatic relations between the two countries!
Isn't the diplomatic relationship between the two countries much more important than a mere concubine? !
Guan Ying tried his best to persuade him, "Your Majesty, please calm down. The Imperial Concubine has always been very clear about justice. If she knew about this, she would surely support Your Majesty in looking for the Third Princess first."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a clear and bright female voice coming from behind the screen.
"That may not be the case!"
Guan Ying trembled all over and his pupils trembled!
He immediately turned his head and looked in the direction of the voice, only to see the imperial concubine walking out from behind the screen.
She was wearing a silver-red jacket and skirt; the bright color made her face look white and rosy, making her even more beautiful and charming.
The pearl and gold hairpins in her hair swayed gently, her red lips were raised, and a faint smile was in her beautiful eyes.
It is like the red plum blossoms blooming in the cold winter. Although not stunning, it becomes more beautiful the more you look at it.
However, Guan Ying had no intention of appreciating the beauty at this time.
He was so shocked that he couldn't help but ask out loud.
"Why is the Imperial Concubine here?"
Xiao Xixi: "I was playing chess with His Majesty just now, and when I heard that the Privy Councilor wanted to see you, I thought you must have something important to discuss.
As a concubine, I cannot interfere in state affairs, so I hid behind the screen.
I originally planned to wait until you guys finished talking before coming out.
I didn't expect the Privy Councilor to suddenly mention me, so I couldn't help but stand up and say a few words."
Guan Ying froze in place.
It turned out that the imperial concubine had been hiding behind the screen.
Then didn't the imperial concubine hear everything he just said? !
The most embarrassing thing in the world is to say bad things about someone behind their back, but be heard by the person involved, and the person involved then appears in front of you in a swagger.
Guan Ying tried his best to stay calm and not show any embarrassment.
As long as he is not embarrassed, it will be others who are embarrassed!
He greeted the imperial concubine as if nothing had happened.
"I didn't expect that the Queen is here too. I hope the Queen will forgive me."
Xiao Xixi sat in the empty seat opposite Luo Qinghan.
There was a chessboard between the two of them.
Luo Qinghan has already put away all the chess pieces on the chessboard.
But because he crushed a black chess piece, he had to ask someone to bring a new set of chess pieces.
Xiao Xixi looked at Guan Ying and said with a smile.
"I heard what the Privy Councilor said just now. Thank you for your trust in me, but I am just a woman. I am not as wise as you think. In my eyes and heart, there is only the emperor. Whatever the emperor says is what it is. I will always support him unconditionally."
At the end of her words, she turned and looked at the emperor.
And the emperor was also looking at her.
The two looked at each other with affection.
If CP fans were there, they would definitely shout that this candy is so sweet!
However, Guan Ying, a big and strong man, felt goosebumps all over his body.
These two people are so corny!
He can't stand it anymore!
…
Good morning everyone!
