C119 The Main Hall Returned to the Royal House
"The Emperor is right. " Xiner did not speak nervously and also affirmed the Emperor's words. This once again shocked everyone.
"Since that is the case, I want to know which one of these two ladies is Princess Helian?"
"Replying to the Emperor, which one is she? No, one of them is my elder sister and the other is my younger sister. "
"Oh? I don't understand. Your words seem very contradictory. "
" Replying to the Emperor, Xiner's words are not contradictory because Xiner is not Royal Father's biological daughter. "
"Not his biological daughter? What is going on? Princess, please explain it to me. "
" Emperor, the matter is like this. Back then when Royal Father was hunting on the mountain, he rode his fast horse towards the depths of the mountain forest because he was happy. He left the guards far behind and it was also at this time that he encountered a rebel. Fortunately, Xiner was at the mountain high school and was saved by me. From then on, Royal Father recognized me as his goddaughter and made me a princess. "
"That means that the princess is the savior of Patriarch Helian, but I can't just rely on you to say that. He believed it. Everyone knew that a few strange murders had happened in Shuntian Prefecture recently. According to Li Commander's investigation, they had all died at the hands of martial arts masters. The murder weapon is a silver needle. " As he spoke, he took a few silver needles and passed them to Shunzi. After Shunzi took the silver needles, he walked down the hall and showed them to the various officials. This caused these officials to be amazed.
The Emperor looked at the expressions of everyone and continued to speak, "I have already received news that this murderer is indeed someone from the Western Regions. This silver needle killing technique is his usual technique and the Princess is also from the Western Regions. And she is not the biological daughter of the Patriarch. This is too much of a coincidence. For the harmony between the Great Ming and Nanzhou, I must investigate this matter and also clear the Nanzhou. Thus, I will send someone to the Nanzhou to confirm the identity of the princess. During this period of time, I hope that the princess can stay in the courier hostel with peace of mind. I will send someone to protect the princess. If what you said is true. . . Then I will personally pay a visit to apologize. "
After listening to the Emperor's words, all the emissaries nodded their heads. Helian Xiner knew that the Emperor intended to keep her here. Although he said that he wanted to send someone to protect her, he actually wanted to put her under house arrest. Fortunately, she had let Jia Tianwei leave in advance. Otherwise, there would be a huge crisis this time.
"Reporting to the Emperor, Shuntian Prefecture is a good place. The scenery is beautiful and the land is blessed. Although it is winter now, there are no flowers blooming in the courtyard without the shade of trees. But this pure white snow scene also made Xiner forget to return and still have a lingering feeling. Originally Xiner wanted to tell the Emperor to stay in Shuntian Prefecture for a period of time. Since the Emperor said so today, then Xiner would gladly accept it. She would stay in Shuntian Prefecture for a few more days. As for the important matter of the murder case, if according to what the Emperor said, Xiner was indeed suspected. But every word that Xiner said was true, the Emperor must investigate this matter thoroughly. To clear Xiner and Nanzhou, as for apologizing to the Emperor, the Emperor would be overly courteous. This is also for the sake of the peaceful relationship between my Nanzhou and Da Ming. Xiner should thank the Emperor for what the Emperor did. Where did the apology come from? The Emperor please rest assured. As long as there is anything that needs Xiner to do, Xiner will definitely cooperate with you with all her might. " Helian Xiner knelt on the ground as she spoke.
"En, don't bow down. Princess Helian is indeed wise and righteous. I am deeply impressed. I also believe that this matter has nothing to do with you, Princess. But just as the Princess said, this matter is of great importance. Please rest in peace, Princess. I can also use this opportunity to treat the Princess well. "
"Thank you, Emperor. "
"Yes, if there is nothing else, then withdraw from the court. I heard that many ambassadors really wish to tour the Imperial Palace. Today, I will satisfy everyone's wishes. Although it's winter now, the envoys can still see the snow in my palace. Take a look at the buildings in my Palace. General Qu, bring the ambassadors around the Imperial Palace and let everyone take a look. Bring them to the banquet at noon. Prince Mu, follow me. If Princess Sima wants to go, she can follow General Qu. If you don't like to watch, you can come with me. "
"This official obeys the decree. " Qu Jinpeng and Mu Qingyun stepped forward and cupped their fists.
"Emperor, then I will follow you. " Sima Yuer knew that the Emperor probably wanted her to feed Lord Lee with medicine, so she gave up on watching the scene. To treat Lee Xiangyu, it was much more important than watching the scene. Furthermore, Princess Jinyu had already brought her to the Imperial Palace to take a look and she did not need to look anymore.
"Alright then, let's go. " The Emperor stood up and walked towards the back hall while Mu Qingyun and Sima Yuer followed him to the back hall. Seeing this scene, all the envoys were at a loss as to why the Emperor wanted Sima Yuer to follow him.
Xiner seemed to have understood a little when she saw this scene. Currently, the Emperor should only care about two things. The same murder case and the other one should be Lee Xiangyu's injuries. And she heard from Sima Yuer's guards that Sima Yuer was left in the Palace after she went to the Imperial Palace yesterday. To make the Emperor do this, it should be because Yuer had a way to treat Lee Xiangyu. Everyone turned around and followed General Qu down the hall.
Ting'er and Yaner saw Xiner walk out but did not see Nameless so they went up and asked, "Princess, where is Big Brother Nameless?"
"You guys, in the future when there are people, you can't call him Big Brother Nameless anymore, understand?"
"Why? What exactly is the matter of the Emperor summoning him in the main hall?"
"Of course it's to reward him. Otherwise, what else would it be? The Emperor has already given him the title of Pingyun Prince. From now on, he will be the Royal Highness. Do you know how to address Prince Mu when you see him in front of others? "
"Prince Mu?"
"I also just found out that his real name is Mu Qingyun. So naturally, he is Prince Mu. "
"Oh, that's right. Then he is really too amazing. He has become a prince all of a sudden! Looks like he must have made a lot of contributions to Da Ming. "
"Haha, alright. I will tell you all the details when we return. Don't you all like the scenery of the Imperial Palace? It just so happens that the Emperor asked General Qu to bring us to various places to view the scenery. You all follow. "
"Really! That's great. " As he spoke, he happily followed behind Helian Xiner. At this moment, Xiner was not in the mood to view the scenery. She did not think that the Emperor would actually know so much. But she dared to conclude that all of these news came from Lee Xiangyu. He was simply too dangerous. Now that she was in a dangerous situation, she could not leave even if she wanted to. Mu Qingyun had returned to the Imperial Court. He had some understanding of the people in Nanzhou. This was the most troublesome matter.
What the Emperor said just now made her feel that the Emperor already knew who the murderer was. However, she understood. Although the Emperor knew that there was nothing he could do now, after all, Jia Tianwei's actions had always been mysterious. Other than herself and a few of Jia Tianwei's trusted aides who knew his true identity, there was no one else. Even if the Emperor wanted to capture him, he would not be able to do so. That was why he was placed under house arrest here. However, the nameless return would directly drag him into a dangerous situation. After all, Nameless already knew about Hundred-face King. If he were to inform the Emperor about this matter. . . It would be hard for him to escape responsibility.
