Reborn from the Ashes: Miss Fifth Devil

Duke Wei frowned.

He looked at his crying daughter, then at Yun Jingchu who was as steady as a rock, and at Baili Wushang who was holding Yun Jingchu's hand tightly, and he also had a headache.

He still had some sense left in him and knew that it was impossible to question a princess based on the one-sided words of a thief. Moreover, to be honest, he did not completely believe what his wife had just said.

He is also a person who has been wallowing in the court for more than 20 years. Although the anger now makes his head almost explode, the remaining trace of reason still tells him that all this is not as simple as it seems.

"This matter is of great importance. It seems that it is better to report it to the Emperor and the Queen." Suddenly, Mrs. Xue, who had been silent, spoke.

After speaking, he turned to his son and said, "Cheng Li, you enter the palace first and report to the emperor. I will take the people here and enter the palace last to meet the emperor."

"...Yes." Mr. Xue breathed a sigh of relief quietly, and then responded respectfully.

He also felt that it was reasonable to let the emperor and queen handle this matter.

After answering, Mr. Xue left in a hurry.

Mrs. Xue stood up and said majestically: "Okay, everyone, get ready and follow me into the palace."

No one had any objection.

So, everyone followed Mrs. Xue's carriage and headed towards the palace.

When Mrs. Xue and her party arrived outside the palace gate, they happened to wait for the eunuch who came to deliver the order and let everyone in.

Imperial study room, east side hall.

Luo Huang and Lu Hou sat in the main seats, looking at the people below with a straight face.

Below, Yun Jingchu, Baili Wushang, Wei Guogong's family, and the Xue family are sitting or standing.

Mrs. Xue was naturally sitting. Others were standing in groups. Huo Xueyan had already changed her clothes and was nestling next to her mother with a sad look on her face.

As for the others, they were temporarily placed in the west side hall.

Emperor Luo and Queen Luo had already known the cause and effect of the matter from Xue Chengli. After knowing it, they also had a headache. Now they looked at the people below and were thinking about where to start.

Finally, after thinking for a moment, Luo Huang spoke and simply repeated what Xue Chengli had told him. Then he looked at Yun Jingchu and asked in a deep voice, "Jingchu, what did you say?"

"Returning to my father, I have been wronged. I don't know the flower picker, nor did I instruct him to harm Miss Huo." Yun Jingchu replied calmly.

"No, Your Majesty, Princess Kang is lying. That little thief confessed clearly because Princess Kang instigated her." Mrs. Wei Guogong said angrily.

"Yilan, shut up! Your Majesty and your concubine have made their own decisions, so don't interrupt." Duke Wei tugged at his wife's sleeves and frowned to stop her.

"Your Majesty, my empress, you must make the decision for Yan'er..." After saying this, Mrs. Wei Guogong began to cover her eyes and cry.

"Don't worry, I will definitely investigate this matter and give you an explanation." Luo Huang said solemnly. After speaking, he looked at the eunuch aside and ordered, "Bring the flower picker in, I will interrogate him personally.

he!"

"Yes." The eunuch responded and gave instructions to the eunuch outside the door. Soon, the door of the palace was opened, and the flower picker was brought in by the two scoundrels and thrown to the ground.

"I have seen the emperor." The flower picker shook his head and knelt on the ground to salute.

"If you answer me honestly now, why do you want to taint the innocence of Miss Weiguo's mansion? Is there anyone who instigated it? How did you get into Xue's mansion? You'd better answer honestly. If you tell any lies, I will not spare you.

!" Luo Huang said coldly.
