Bei Chenlan looked at the emperor who was smiling slightly, and felt a bad feeling in her heart, but she had already said what she said just now, and if she wanted to change her words now, she would be afraid that her situation would be even worse.

It's just that what she did today was very hidden, and the one who framed her was only an insignificant person like Murong Yue. Her father, who always loved her the most, shouldn't blame herself for this!

Thinking of this, Beichen Lan couldn't help but purse her red lips, and said with a bit of coquettishness: "Father, why would you ask Lan'er like this? Chang Chun has been accompanying Lan'er today, she..."

"How presumptuous!" The emperor finally lowered his face and shouted coldly. In full view of everyone, he had given Beichenlan another chance. However, it seemed that this daughter was really spoiled by him, and she actually started to deceive Yu with no idea of ​​the high and high.

Own.

This made Emperor Beichen, as the king of a country, deeply feel that his majesty was being despised!

Concubine De suddenly opened her eyes and looked at her only daughter with a complicated expression. It seemed that this daughter could no longer be pampered like this. In the palace, she didn't even have such a look or scheming to treat her.

Saying, is not a good thing!

"Father...Lan'er..." Beichen Lan was startled by the emperor's sudden anger, and looked at the angry emperor at a loss.

"Kneel down!" The emperor slapped the tea table and shouted angrily. He could tolerate his daughter's domineering temper and his daughter doing wrong things, but he could not tolerate his daughter deceiving him.

The higher a person is in a high position, the less he can tolerate deception. However, Bei Chenlan encountered this problem.

Beichen Lan, who was used to being held by stars and holding the moon, had never seen the emperor look like this before. She was so frightened that she fell to her knees with a "pop" and shouted with pale face: "Father, why do you treat Lan'er like this? Lan'er.

What did you do wrong?"

"Do you need me to ask you what you did wrong? You said that Changchun has been by your side since noon, so I ask you, why are there Changchun's fingerprints on this jade pendant?" After the emperor became angry, the whole

The hall of Liuhua Palace fell silent, and everyone watched the scene in front of them with bated breath.

It's just that the expressions on their faces are different and their thoughts are different.

"This, Lan'er..." Beichen Lan finally knew the reason why the emperor took everyone's palm prints this afternoon.

The whole afternoon, she pestered Ye Lufeng to play with her. Even if a eunuch told the emperor that he wanted to collect palm prints, he just printed the palm prints in a hurry and continued to play. Who would have thought that collecting palm prints would

, it was Murong Yue’s move to clarify for herself.

"Lan'er doesn't know... maybe, this is someone else's fingerprint? Father, a fingerprint can't mean anything! Lan'er is deeply loved by his father, mother and concubine, and there are countless treasures in the palace, so why should he take a look at such an unknown one?

An eye-catching jade pendant!" Bei Chenlan gritted her teeth in her heart. Since the matter has developed to this point, she can't save anything by admitting it. It might be better to deny it to the end, which may be more beneficial to herself.

Chang Chun is his personal palace maid, who has been by his side since he was a child. He has done a lot of things for him over the years, and he is very easy to use. Without her, he will never want to have such a comfortable person again in the future.

A palace maid with deep meaning is rare!

The most important thing is that the other concubines of the father are here at the moment, and they have long wanted to find something to do with him. If they admit it now, they will definitely take advantage of it and add insult to injury.

"Concubine De, this is the good daughter you taught me!" The emperor laughed angrily, looked at Xiao He with a pair of sharp eyes, and said: "In that case, Xiao He, please explain what you just said to Qi

Princess, tell me again!"

"Yes!" Xiao He prostrated on the ground and repeated what he had said before. He also clearly stated the amount of money Chang Chun paid for him and the conversation.

Chang Chun trembled and knelt on the ground, knowing that at this point, the Seventh Princess could no longer protect herself. She might as well admit it as soon as possible and take all the crimes on herself, so that the Seventh Princess would still think of her.

For all the great contributions he has made for her in the past and his current loyalty, he will treat himself and his family well after he is punished.

"Father, this Xiaohe..."

The matter calmed down slightly. Bei Chenlan turned around and glared at Xiao He fiercely. She wanted to say something, but Chang Chun interrupted her and said in a trembling tone: "This slave is guilty, Your Majesty, all this is the fault of this slave."

It was only because of this that she bribed Xiao He and framed Princess Xingyue. The princess didn’t know all of this. I acknowledge my guilt and beg the emperor to spare my life!”

Hearing what Chang Chun said, Concubine De's eyes flashed, and she asked: "You said you did it alone, then why did you frame my niece? Come on, get the truth. If it is just a lie, I will definitely not

Be gentle!"

"Slave..." Chang Chun looked at Concubine De's eyes as soft as water. His body trembled slightly and his mind was spinning rapidly. Then his eyes flashed and he said, "Slave, I saw Princess Xingyue in front of Yihe Palace.

pissed off the princess

, feeling aggrieved for the princess, he then took it upon himself to find Xiao He, and asked her to steal the jade pendant of Concubine Hui and frame Princess Xingyue. All these slaves did had nothing to do with the princess. Please, Your Majesty and Concubine De

Insightful!"

Seeing that things would turn out to be unexpectedly unexpected, Concubine Li was not willing to watch Beichenlan escape. If she attacked Beichenlan, she would be attacking Concubine De. She finally had such a good opportunity, so naturally she would not let it go easily. She would not wait for De Concubine at the moment.

The concubine spoke again and asked loudly: "You said that all this has nothing to do with the princess, but I

Just now I heard clearly that the princess said that you have never left her side for a moment today, so why did your fingerprints appear on the jade pendant of Empress Hui Fei? Besides, where did you come from, a little palace maid?

So much silver to bribe Xiao He! Do you know that this crime of deceiving the emperor will implicate the nine clans!"

Chang Chun trembled at Concubine Li's last cold words and almost collapsed to the ground, but she still gritted her teeth and replied firmly: "Everything I said is true, and this matter of stealing the jade pendant is all my fault."

The princess lied about having a stomachache and used Chu Gong's time to steal it. Therefore, the princess did not know what the slave did today. She had just

He was not sincerely deceiving the emperor. As for the silver coins used to buy Xiao He, they were all given to the slave by the princess who loved her. The slave was deeply favored by the princess, so she looked for an opportunity to take revenge because Princess Xingyue had angered the princess.

Princess, you committed such a crime. All crimes were committed by this servant alone. I hope the emperor will forgive you, princess!"

After saying this, Chang Chun knelt down on the ground respectfully, kowtowed his head repeatedly, and allowed his snow-white forehead to hit the cold ground again and again, becoming red and swollen until bright red blood splashed out.

Seeing that all the flaws were dealt with by Chang Chun, Li Fei hesitated, but had nothing to say. After all, this Chang Chun had already risked his life. No matter how unwilling Li Fei was, she had no choice but to give up.

Murong Yue looked at Chang Chun with overflowing eyes. Naturally, she didn't believe Chang Chun's words, but seeing Chang Chun's loyalty to Beichen Lan, she couldn't help but feel more respect in her heart.

After all, this matter has been brought before the emperor today. If you admit this crime, you must be prepared to die. This kind of courage and dedication is not something everyone can possess. Although dragging Beichenlan into the water is very harmful to her.

There is no benefit at all, but it is very commendable that a person can still have this kind of heart before death, thinking about leaving others behind and shouldering everything by himself!

This Beichenlan is arrogant and domineering, but she has such a loyal maid. I have to say that she is really lucky! Beichenlan escaped today's disaster. But I don't know what Beichenlan's temper will be in the future after what happened today.

It will be more restrained.

"Chang Chun!" Bei Chenlan looked at this palace maid who had been following her since she was a child. She didn't know why Chang Chun made such a decision. She was doing it to protect herself!

"Princess, I can no longer serve you. You must take care of yourself!" Chang Chun looked at Bei Chenlan's heartbroken expression with tears in his eyes, and a broken smile appeared on his face. Although the princess is usually unruly and often loses her temper.

, and occasionally vent my anger on myself.

But it is undeniable that among all the palace ladies, Beichenlan can be said to be the best to me. Except for the occasional punishment, her treatment is better than that of all the palace ladies, no worse than ordinary official ladies. Even herself

My parents, brothers and sisters all found good jobs because of my favor. I heard that my younger brother also arranged a good marriage because he was a popular person in front of the princess.

All this is obtained because of the princess, so he can die, but the princess must not fall. Moreover, even if he drags the princess into the water, he cannot escape from what happened today. He might as well do everything.

Take it upon yourself and use your own life to pave the way for your family.

"Chang Chun, although you are dedicated to Lan'er, you can't just murder my niece because of this! The quarrels and grudges between the sisters are just petty tricks! They quarrel today and forget about it tomorrow.

.I know that you have grown up with Lan'er since childhood and have a deep affection.

But you can’t do such stupid things because you feel sorry for Lan’er! In this case, I can’t let you stay with Lan’er...” Concubine De sighed, with compassion on her beautiful face.

He seemed to be moved by Chang Chun's protectiveness and heartbroken by Chang Chun's mistakes.

"Chang Chun, you, why are you so stupid..." Bei Chenlan is not a fool. Now that Chang Chun has taken full responsibility for everything, she has escaped. Naturally, she will not admit everything stupidly again.

But at this moment, Beichen Lan still looked at the emperor and Concubine De with a glimmer of hope, hoping that the emperor could spare Chang Chun this time!
