C18 The Court Defense

The physician had told him many times that Yuan Chung-tzu's body was not well, and that he must not be too happy or too sad.

What does Luo Luo mean by that? Could it be that Seventh Brother has saved your life before?"

Everyone was confused.

Other than Cheng Luo, only Yuan Muchen knew what was going on. When their eyes met, he was full of questions. Why did she help him?

Cheng Luo Luo smiled. His smile was like a flower in spring, especially gorgeous under the sunlight. For a moment, Yuan Mu Chen was stunned.

She was really beautiful!

The next moment, he shook his head to get rid of the weird thoughts in his mind and then continued to listen to what she was going to say.

Cheng Luo Luo nodded his head, his back as straight as when he first met him, his eyes still full of stubbornness, "Yes Your Majesty, the Seventh Highness did save Luo Luo's life."

"When?" Yuan Chongyang asked with joy.

"On the way to the Cang Yuan Country, when he was passing through the maple forest, he encountered a group of assassins. While the guards were fighting the assassins, he was trapped in the carriage."

This last sentence was true. If it were not for Yuan Mu Chen's help, she would have been killed by that frightened horse. Even if she was lucky enough not to die, she would have been crippled.

"What? You met an assassin on the way here? Humph! Who dares to assassinate the princess?" Hearing him, Yuan Chong-Long was furious. - Pah! - He slammed on the table and frightened the crowd. They all kneeled on the floor and shouted, "Please calm down, your majesty!"

The only one who was still standing was Cheng Luo-Luo. Cheng Luo-Luo felt like his heart was going to jump out of his mouth.

"Cough, cough..."

Eunuch Zhang once again comforted Yuan Chongqing's back and tried to persuade him, "Your Majesty, please take care of your dragon body. The princess was fortunate enough to be saved by the Seventh Highness."

Yuan Chongqing wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and sat back on the throne to suppress his anger, "Seventh brother, what do you think is going on?"

Yuan Muchen, who had been summoned, got up and looked at Cheng Luoluo. Seeing Cheng Luoluo beating her chest in shock, he frowned. If he guessed right, she wanted to turn the assassin's target to her, and he had just saved her life.

But in the end, Yuan Muchen directly ignored Cheng Luo Luo's glances and told him everything that had happened that day." Father, the assassin didn't come for Princess Luo Luo. He came for me..."

After Yuan Mu Chen told her the whole story, Cheng Luo Luo rubbed her forehead and thought, Alas, this child is really tight-lipped. As soon as he said that, she immediately changed from being a good escort to being involved with him.

A cold light flashed in Yuan Mu Ling's eyes. It was fleeting. She didn't expect that she would be there that day!

At this moment, he should thank him for protecting her that day.

"That's true. Did you find anything on the assassin?" Yuan Chongtian held the blood in his throat and asked calmly.

If there was a clue, it would be the token of the Hall of Justice. Yuan Muchen looked at Yuan Muling with a complicated look in his eyes. In order not to alert the enemy and find out the great conspiracy behind him, he did not recognize him in the end.

Yuan Muchen shook his head and said, "Father, I didn't find any clues."

"Humph! How dare you! Seventh Brother, we have to get to the bottom of this!"

"Yes, Father!"

So that was the case. Everyone instantly understood that Cheng Luoluo had intended to protect Yuan Muchen, which made Yuan Muling feel extremely jealous.

Just as everyone was about to relax, Yuan Muling's eyes instigated Xia Junhou to continue, "Your Majesty, if that is the case, Princess Luo Luo is implicated because of the Seventh Highness, that is a crime..."

A serious crime? Cheng Luo Luo was furious. The person I want to protect, why are you, an old man, standing up for me?

She rolled her eyes at Yuan Muling who had an ugly face. [Yuan Muling, mind your people.]

Cheng Luoluo was certain that Yuan Muling was the ultimate villain in this novel. It didn't matter to Cheng Luoluo that one's worldview followed one's looks, not to mention that her male lead seemed to be even more attractive, so her remaining good impression of him instantly vanished.

Before Marquis Xia Jun could finish his words, he was interrupted by Cheng Luo Luo, "I say, the Prime Minister really knows how to make decisions for me. I said that the Seventh Highness is my savior, so he is." [What the hell?] "You don't seem to have the right to talk nonsense here! ...

[What the hell! I spent so much effort to find my destined one. I have to rely on him to go home. How can I let you bully me like this?]

"You..." Marquis Xia Jun was so angry that he didn't know what to say.

"Prime Minister, you dare to be so rude to me and call me that. May I ask you if I can convict you for that?" [Your daughter bullied me last time, and now you bullied my son of heaven again.

"Princess... Princess Cheng, the Prime Minister has no intention of disrespecting you. He does not wish to make a decision for you. Please forgive him, Princess!" Just as Cheng Luoluo was showing off, Yuan Muling, who had not spoken a moment ago, finally could not hold it in after seeing Marquis Xia Jun being taught a lesson.

She looked up at him, her eyes no longer full of the friendship she had once felt when she looked at him. She knew that he had almost blurted out the word Brother Cheng, and she wanted to continue to think of him as a friend.

"Well, since the Third Prince has come forward to plead for you, I won't hold it against you any longer. This can be considered as..." Let's put an end to the conflict between Brother Cheng and Brother Yuan!

Cheng Luo Luo's expression suddenly dimmed. Although it was only for an instant, it was still caught by Yuan Mu Ling and Yuan Mu Chen. What did she want to say just now?

"Thank you, Princess..." This was the first time that Marquis Xia Jun had been humiliated in front of the officials. He was unwilling but helpless.

Yuan Muling stared at Cheng Luo for a long time. Cheng Luo Luo pretended to be cold and turned her head. She bowed again, "Your majesty, for a war god who has defended the country like the Seventh Highness, he should be rewarded for his outstanding military exploits. Only then can the morale of the army be consolidated. As for Luo Luo... In Luo Luo's eyes, Luo Luo only knows that it was the Seventh Highness who saved Luo Luo from the horse that day. The Seventh Highness is Luo Luo's savior, so Luo Luo begs the Emperor not to care about such trivial matters. Just treat it as repaying Luo Luo's debt of gratitude, okay?" Go on, go on!

"Haha, good, ahem... Then I will do as Luo Luo wishes. Eunuch Zhang, please announce it to the world like the imperial edict just now!" Seeing that Cheng Luo Luo was so protective of Yuan Muchen, Yuan Chongqing felt relieved. In everyone's eyes, this meant that she had declared her position. She would choose the Seventh Prince... Prince Chen.

Since the result was already decided, no one argued anymore. Cheng Luo's performance just now had not only stunned Yuan Muchen, but even the Great General was the son-in-law of the current Emperor. Xuanyuan Ta admired her deeply in his heart.

She was the princess of a great country with such an aura.

"Thank you, Emperor, for your help." Cheng Luo was extremely happy.

"This son thanks the Emperor for his grace!" Yuan Muchen knelt on one knee and bowed. Cheng Luo Luo turned to look at him. When their eyes met, she was so happy that her eyes almost narrowed into a line.

After leaving the morning court, all the civil and military officials left one after another. Cheng Luo Luo and Yuan Muchen walked behind them, "Princess, why did you help me?"

Cheng Luo Luo was stunned for a moment, but in the next moment, she smiled sweetly and answered very naturally, "Hehe, of course it's to repay your kindness?" [Do I have to tell you that I want to pick you up in order to return home after a time-travel?]

"Repay the favor? If I remember correctly, I was tired after that..."

Before Yuan Mu Chen could finish, he was interrupted by Cheng Luo Luo impatiently." Oh my, why are you so slow as a man? I said you saved me, so you saved me. Stop talking nonsense! "

No one had ever dared to talk to him like that. The corner of Yuan Mu Chen's mouth twitched. He wanted to swallow this woman who didn't know how high the sky was and how deep the earth was.

Behind him, Yuan Mu Ling watched the two of them walk away. His face gradually turned dark. No matter if it was to obtain the power of the Tianmu Kingdom or not, he had to make her stay.

After returning to the Natural Residences, Cheng Luo hurriedly packed his luggage, "Princess, are you really going to move out of the Hall of Justice?"

Cheng Luoluo didn't even raise his head, "Of course!" And the sooner the better. It was best to move out before Yuan Muling returned.

The palace maids and eunuchs outside Fragrant Snow Ocean Palace had already been waiting for a long time. When they saw Cheng Luoluo's phoenix chariot, they immediately retreated and bowed from both sides, "This servant (servant) welcomes Your Highness."

"All of you, rise!" Cheng Luoluo waved her hand to signal them to rise. She raised her head to look at her new home, Fragrant Snow Ocean. Mn, not bad, this name is not bad, but I seem to have heard it somewhere before.

The birthday banquet was held in the Glazed Tile Palace on the second night. Cheng Luo Luo had already sat down in her seat early in the morning. Of course, the ones accompanying her were Senior Hong and Yuan Mu.

Beside her, Yuan Muyan was like a child as he looked at his surroundings in surprise. "Miss Fairy, look at that lamp. It's so beautiful..."

"And that..."

... ""

Looking at Yuan Muyan's excited face, Cheng Luo felt a wave of sadness from the bottom of her heart. She had never known that the First Prince, who was supposed to be the crown prince of a country, was living a life worse than an ordinary person.
