Luo Yuanjian immediately knelt on the ground, looked at Huang with hatred, and then responded with a trembling voice,

"Empress... Empress, I don't know about this... This is all... all done by my wife. When I return... I will definitely... I will definitely teach her a lesson."

As soon as these words came out, Queen Jiang's face turned cold.

"Humph! You've lived under the same roof for more than ten years, how could you not know? Are you blind?"

Seeing Queen Jiang's ugly face, Luo Yuanjian knelt down in horror and admitted his fault.

"Your Majesty, calm down..."

Queen Jiang looked at Huang again with disapproval.

"Nianxi has been raised by your side since she was born. How can you bear to treat her so harshly? Do you treat your own daughter the same way? Woman, how can you be so vicious?"

Huang knew she was in the wrong, so she quickly buried her head on the ground.

"Empress, I am guilty. I shouldn't have been so foolish and treated Nianxi so harshly. But I did it for her own good. She has never liked music, chess, calligraphy, or painting since she was a child, and she has never studied hard. I was so angry that I punished her. Please understand, Your Majesty and Empress."

Luo Nianxi knew that Huang was making excuses for herself. The original owner was timid and would do whatever she told her to do. She never let her learn music, chess, calligraphy and painting. She only abused her.

If she had known that she would be married to Prince Yan and would be questioned by the Queen Mother, she would not have dared to treat the original owner so harshly!

However, she did not intend to expose Huang, because if she wanted to prove that her strange behavior was normal, she could not go into it any further, otherwise, it would be difficult to cover up the truth.

The emperor was silent for a long time, then looked at Luo Yuanjian again.

"Are you sure that the person standing in front of you is your daughter Luo Nianxi? If you dare to tell a lie, I will punish you for deceiving the emperor."

Luo Yuanjian nodded quickly and replied,

"I dare not lie. I remember the birthmark behind your ear very clearly. There must be no mistake."

After he finished saying this, the emperor's face turned pale again, and the air here seemed to freeze, and no one dared to even breathe.

After a while, he looked at Luo Nianxi again with suspicion.

"You said you can perform ventriloquism. I'm curious. Can you perform it for me?"

It seems that the emperor still has some doubts about her, but he just didn't say it to her face.

Luo Nianxi nodded with a relaxed expression.

"Your Majesty, what sound do you want to hear?"

"What do you know?"

"I can do everything, whether it's flying in the sky, running on the ground, swimming in the water, or walking on the street."

"Okay, then you should learn to bray like a horse!"

Luo Nianxi nodded slightly, half squinting her eyes, taking a deep breath, raising her wide sleeves to cover her mouth, and then taking out her cell phone from Bao'an Hall and putting it in her sleeves...

Suddenly, the sound of horses neighing, running, and snorting filled the room.

“Hiss…da da da…de de de de…chi chi…”

After the sound of a horse was heard, she found the sound of thousands of horses galloping and shouting that scared away the assassin last night. At the same time, her lips kept moving. People who didn't know the situation thought that the sound came from her mouth.

This scene shocked the emperor, Luo Yuanjian, and everyone present.

Huang looked at her in astonishment.

"You... this is impossible... Nian Xi doesn't know how to do this, you are lying..."

After saying this, Luo Yuanjian glared at her hatefully. She immediately realized that she had said the wrong thing and quickly covered her mouth.

Luo Nianxi put her arms down and looked at the emperor calmly.

"Your Majesty, I used this voice to scare off the assassins last night. If this can also make people suspicious, then I, Luo Nianxi, have nothing to say and will let Your Majesty deal with it."

At this point, she suddenly sobbed in grievance, "No matter what, the assassin was scared away by me, otherwise, by now, let alone Prince Yan, I'm afraid even I would have died. I saved Prince Yan and the entire Prince Yan's Mansion, not only did I not get a word of praise from others, but I was suspected by everyone, umm..."

Seeing this scene, the emperor's brows tightened instantly, and Queen Jiang hurriedly comforted him softly,

"Princess Yan, now that the matter has been investigated, it was me and the emperor who wronged you. Don't be upset. I will send you some rewards later."

The emperor also nodded solemnly.

"It's not without reason that the Queen and I suspect you. When you work in Prince Yan's Mansion in the future, don't be so mysterious, so as not to arouse suspicion..."

Having said this, he looked towards the door.

"Lin Ming, tell Wang Shichang to arrange 300 guards to take turns guarding Prince Yan's mansion day and night. If anything happens to Prince Yan, they will all be buried with him."

"Yes, I will make arrangements now."

"Also, tell these three hundred people to obey Ling Xiao and Su Yi's orders in Prince Yan's Mansion..."

"Yes."

After Lin Ming turned around and left, the emperor looked at Luo Yuanjian, who had luckily escaped the disaster.

"Luo Yuanjian has been harsh to Princess Yan since she was young, which makes people hate her. Although her true character is revealed in the Prince Yan's Mansion, you are also suspected of deceiving the emperor. I consider that you are the father of Princess Yan, and I will treat you leniently. The crime of deceiving the emperor can be forgiven, but you can't escape the crime of living. Now I will demote you by three levels and continue to be a doctor in the Ministry of Rites. As a penalty, you will be deducted from your salary for half a year..."

Hearing this, Huang immediately fell to the ground with a pale face, while Luo Yuanjian kowtowed repeatedly to express his gratitude.

"I thank the emperor for his grace. Thank you for his grace."

The emperor waved his hand at the two of them.

"Go down!"

After Huang glared at Luo Nianxi hatefully, she followed Luo Yuanjian and retreated together.

After seeing the two of them leave, the emperor looked up at Luo Nianxi again.

"Princess Yan has done a great job in protecting Prince Yan's mansion this time. I will reward you with a thousand taels of silver, a hundred pieces of silk, and some jewelry..."

At this moment, there was only one sentence in Luo Nianxi's mind: It's really just a thought to heaven and a thought to hell.

If she had not prepared a draft in advance, the emperor might have asked a few wizards to perform a ritual to reveal her true form.

She was so frightened that she breathed a sigh of relief and knelt on her knees to pay her respects.

"Thank you, Your Majesty for your grace."

Queen Jiang hurriedly reminded:

"Everything has been checked. You can call me as before."

Luo Nianxi hesitated for a moment, then bowed again.

"Thank you, Father and Mother, for your grace."

The emperor nodded calmly.

"Well, Princess Yan, you have made an invaluable contribution to saving Yan'er this time. You also understand Yan'er's situation. I don't want to wrong you. If you have any other requests, just ask."

Since the emperor has said this, if she doesn't make some requests, it would seem too pretentious.

Thinking of this, she immediately responded generously,

"Father, I have been married into Prince Yan's Mansion for more than ten days. I am familiar with the affairs of Prince Yan's Mansion, so I want to... take back the power of the head of Prince Yan's Mansion."

Hearing this, the emperor, who had no idea what was going on, frowned and looked at Queen Jiang in confusion.

"What's going on? Who holds the power to manage Prince Yan's Mansion?"
