Obviously, everything has been planned.

In Qinghui Garden, the fragrance of Albizzia julibrissin is lingering.

The palace maid will find a suitable excuse to bring Wu Tianxiao here to change clothes.

Lin Jiaoyue will also lure Mu Rong away from the table and come to Qinghui Garden on the pretext of rescuing Mu Wu.

Even though Xu Rongrong is extremely reluctant, Mu Wu's life is on the line, and Mu Rong will never sit idly by!

Secret guards are lurking in Qinghui Garden, and the flashes of swords and shadows of sabers are hidden deep among the flowers and trees.

With Mu Rong's current strength after being poisoned, there is no way he would be able to escape unscathed once he enters this garden.

He and Lin Jiaoyue both left the table, and the emperor also had a clever plan to alienate the relationship between him and Xu Rongrong.

At that time, the cousins ​​would expose their ugly behavior in front of the royal family, and Princess Lingxi, who was controlled by the emperor, would come forward and accuse the two of rape.

Wu Tianxiao and Mu Rong will certainly lose the support of the people, and the general trend will be determined.

The situation is closely linked, and everything is developing in the direction arranged by the emperor.

but……

Why was the person who was caught from the room Wu Tianqi?

Wasn’t he drinking with others in Zhengyang Palace?

The disheveled, dazed woman also fell off the bed. When she raised her hand and looked at everyone blankly, the face she saw was the palace maid who had just led Wu Tianxiao to change his clothes.

The two of them collapsed on the ground, their faces flushed, obviously showing that they were still in love.

Everyone was stunned.

The fourth prince, Wu Tianqi, had never achieved anything, but he was caught having an affair with the eldest daughter of the Lin family during the Flower Festival. Less than a year later, he was fooling around with palace maids in the palace's female quarters.

It's rare for a prince to be so absurd!

"Didn't they say that His Royal Highness Prince Ning entered the room? Why would it be the Fourth Prince?" a member of the royal family asked.

"Not only that, didn't the Fourth Imperial Concubine just say that Marquis Weiyuan also entered the room?"

The emperor stood outside the crowd, his eyes as sharp as torches, looking straight at Lin Jiaoyue.

The reason why he had not attacked the room just now was because he was waiting for news from Lin Jiaoyue.

But now, who can tell him what is going on!

Lin Jiaoyue's face was pale and her eyes were filled with horror. She was as shocked and confused as the emperor at this moment.

"Rebellious son!" The emperor was so angry that he threw the heater in his hand at Wu Tianqi with a sound like thunder.

Wu Tianqi did not feel the emperor's rage. He collapsed to the ground, dazed, and muttered something incoherently.

"I still want..."

"Give me more..."

Seeing this, the emperor frowned and a sinister look flashed in his eyes.

If someone were to investigate further, I would be exposed immediately.

So he waved his hand and said coldly: "Take this rebellious son away, don't let him pollute the eyes of the people!"

"Yes!"

Several guards who rushed over after hearing the news hurried forward and were about to carry Wu Tianqi and take him away.

"Father, wait!"

Who dares to stop the emperor at this time?

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Ning Wang Wu Tianxiao, dressed in a black python robe, walking calmly into Qinghui Garden.

He had picturesque features and a smile on his lips. Walking side by side with him was Ning Wang's Consort Mu Qianyin. One of his hands was interlocked with Mu Qianyin's fingers, and the other hand was holding a lantern. The flickering candlelight made the four-clawed golden python on his robe sparkle.

"My fourth brother broke into Qinghui Garden and committed a crime that was unforgivable...but why did the maid who had led me to change clothes earlier appear in the room?"

As soon as he finished speaking, an elder from the royal family whispered, "Your Majesty has always been very strict about rules. The maids and eunuchs from different places are not allowed to communicate with each other... It is indeed strange that this maid from Zhengyang Palace appeared here. The changing room is not far from Zhengyang Palace. Why did she come to Qinghui Garden?"

Although everyone remained silent, they all had doubts in their hearts.

"What do you mean, Prince Ning?" asked Eunuch Yao.

"After I left the palace with my clothes soiled, she wanted to take me to Qinghui Garden. Can you smell the fragrance of love in this room?" Wu Tianxiao sneered, "I'm afraid the person she really wants to frame is me!"

The crowd was in an uproar at first, but then returned to silence in an instant.

Indeed! When they first arrived here, when His Majesty asked, a palace maid clearly said that she saw His Royal Highness Prince Ning enter the room.

That's why everyone thought that it was Ning Wang Wu Tianxiao who did the wrong thing in the room.

Thinking of this, everyone looked to the side and found that the palace maid who had misled them just now had disappeared.

When the emperor heard this, his brows furrowed: "Third brother, are you saying that someone wants to frame you?"

"Exactly!"

"Who do you think it is?"

"Isn't your Majesty clear?" Wu Tianxiao met the emperor's gaze with a smile.

The once kind and gentle eyes were now dark.

"Everything is just your imagination." The emperor said coldly, "Who dares to be so bold as to frame the prince in the palace?! And this woman is just a palace maid. I can let her enter the palace to quell the criticism. She can't bring you much harm. Isn't it a waste of effort for those who plotted against you?"

"What if it wasn't a palace maid, what if the woman who was defiled tonight was Princess Lingxi?" Wu Tianxiao asked back.

The daughter of the King of Northern Frontier, and also a princess.

Even if Wu Tianxiao is a prince, I'm afraid today's incident will not end well!

If... Princess Lingxi cannot bear the humiliation and insists on being punished by His Majesty, it is not impossible for the prince to be deposed from his title.

After figuring out the key, everyone dared not say a word.

Who would benefit the most from harming Prince Ning?

Maybe it’s the Fourth Prince, but maybe… it’s the Emperor.

No matter who it is, the person behind it is not someone they can afford to offend.

At this time, all the members of the royal family regretted that if they had found an excuse not to get involved in this game that day, they would not have faced such an embarrassing situation.

Seeing the colorful regret on everyone's faces, the emperor became more and more angry: "This is just your imagination, Princess Lingxi is not here..."

"That's because Lingxi hid herself..." A delicate and weak female voice with tears in it.

Princess Lingxi, wrapped in a cloak, walked in from the darkness tremblingly. She had no maidservants with her, and not even a lantern to lead the way.

The whole person looked thin and withered, as if he was about to fall apart.

Her face was as pale as paper, but her eyes were burning with a fire of determination.

The emperor felt something was wrong.

Three days ago, he told Lingxi: "As long as you accomplish this, I will give you the antidote so that you will no longer suffer from the burning desire! Don't worry, I won't think you are dirty, and I will love you as always..."

At that time, Lingxi was shaking with desire and bowed her head in despair to accept the task.

And today, how dare she?

She had taken so many banned drugs and had already become addicted. How dare she disobey him!

He was about to scold her when Lingxi looked up. Although her voice was soft, every word was as sharp as a knife: "Your Majesty asked Lingxi to light the love incense in the room, asked the palace maid to bring the Prince of Ning who was changing clothes into the room, and asked the Fourth Imperial Concubine to bring the Marquis of Weiyuan into the room as well. After the two of them were given the medicine, Lingxi used her body to frame them for the crime of rape and humiliation... It was Lingxi who was useless and unwilling to give up her innocent body that failed to fulfill Your Majesty's wish and ruin the reputation of the Prince of Ning and the Marquis of Weiyuan."

There was complete silence all around, with only a chilling atmosphere floating faintly in the night sky.
