Want to tease the prince, the cat is soft and delicate

Empress Cao wanted to say something, but Emperor Shunde nodded in agreement: "Your Highness is right, this is not a trivial matter. Yue'er, tell me what is going on."

Xuanyuan Yue, who had been acting like a spoiled brat in front of Emperor Shunde just now, now shrank his head and hid behind Empress Cao, with uncontrollable fear in his eyes.

Since Xuanyuan Che came, she hasn't said a word, and even her sobbing has become quieter.

"I'm asking you a question! You're speechless!"

Emperor Shunde, who had not received an answer for a long time, roared in a stern voice, scaring Xuanyuan Yue so much that his body began to tremble continuously.

"My son, my son, I don't know either." Frightened, Xuanyuan Yue began to babbled, "Monster, there is a monster."

"Yuer." Queen Cao grabbed her shoulders and pinched her hard where no one could see, trying to wake her up and stop talking nonsense.

The palace was taboo against ghosts and monsters because the second princess had died from witchcraft, so Emperor Shunde hated the talk of ghosts and monsters the most.

Queen Cao knew the seriousness of the matter, so when Xuanyuan Yue said the word "monster", she quickly stopped her.

Unfortunately, it was too late for her to stop it. Emperor Shunde was only a few steps away from them, so how could he not hear it?

His face was as gloomy as ice, and he was obviously very disappointed with what Xuanyuan Yue said.

"Monster? Where did this monster come from in this palace? You are talking nonsense." Emperor Shunde flicked his sleeves, looking furious.

Xuanyuan Yue was so frightened that she dared not utter a word. Her tears fell even more violently and her whole body was shaking.

"Don't worry, my sister." Xuanyuan Che said, looking at Xuanyuan Yue behind Empress Cao with a meaningful smile: "Think about it carefully, but did you offend someone during the day, and the other party is here to seek revenge."

It would have been better if Xuanyuan Che hadn't said this. As soon as he said this, Xuanyuan Yue, who was trembling behind Queen Cao, suddenly had clear eyes.

As if suddenly awakened, he shouted: "It's that beast, that little beast!"

"She must be resentful that I hired someone to catch it during the day, and then came to my palace at night to hurt me!"

Little beast?

Xuanyuan Che pinched the paw of the little fur ball in his arms. Although he was smiling, there was a chill in his eyes.

"Little beast? Could it be that it was a cat that hurt the imperial sister?"

After saying this, Empress Cao suddenly looked at Xuanyuan Che, a gleam in her eyes, and she grabbed Xuanyuan Yue's hand to stop her from saying the next word: "Yuer, shut up!"

But Xuanyuan Yue's mind had long been clouded by hatred and fear, and at this moment his mind was filled with the desire to catch the culprit who caused all this and cut him into pieces.

She ignored Empress Cao's attempts to stop her and said with eyes wide open and a terrifying look: "Yes! It was a cat! That beast! It wanted to harm me, luckily I woke up! It was also the one who put out the fire, it was all because of it!"

Empress Cao sighed with a headache, and loosened her grip on Xuanyuan Yue's hand, but she didn't let go in the end. She used up her last bit of patience and said to her, "Yuer, you are frightened and talking nonsense."

But Xuanyuan Yue didn't understand the good intentions of Queen Cao, and thought she didn't trust him. She was so anxious that she burst into tears and couldn't even breathe when she spoke.

"Mother, mother, mother, please believe me, I am not talking nonsense. You knew it all during the day. That beast beat me. She also scratched my face tonight while my daughter was sleeping. You clearly knew it!

Look, the wound on my forehead was caused by that beast at night! Tell my father that I am not talking nonsense! "

Queen Cao loosened her grip on Xuanyuan Yue's arm, closed her eyes and said nothing.

A scornful laugh rang out, and a mocking smile appeared on Xuanyuan Che's enchanting face.

"My sister said that she was beaten by a wild cat during the day? But why is it said in the palace that my sister was scratched by a wild cat?"

He raised his eyebrows, stretched his neck to check, squinted at Xuanyuan Yue in the distance, then frowned and asked in surprise, "My royal sister was captured during the day and at night, but why do I only see one scar? Could it be that the wound from the day has healed? Or did the wild cat scratch the same place twice?"

"Tsk tsk." Xuanyuan Che was amazed, looking at Xuanyuan Yue with suspicion, his voice lowered: "Or... is the imperial sister lying?"

"I don't!"

Xuanyuan Yue lost control. She had indeed lied to Emperor Shunde about what happened during the day, so she felt very guilty when Xuanyuan Che talked about it at this moment.

"I, I, I didn't lie." She retorted weakly.

"Since you are not lying, why don't you explain why there is only one scar? Where is the scar from the wild cat scratching in the daytime?"

"Che'er!" Queen Cao roared, looking at Xuanyuan Che with red eyes, the corners of her mouth twitching: "She is your sister."

"Ha, ha ha ha." Xuanyuan Che seemed to have heard a joke. For a moment, apart from the crackling sound of wood exploding in the distance, his laughter was the only harsh sound.

"I really want to thank you, mother, for reminding me that I have a younger sister."

Xuanyuan Che's eyes were as sharp as an arrow that broke through the wind, shooting straight at Empress Cao: "As a brother, I have the obligation to teach the younger generation. After all, deceiving superiors and subordinates and taking human lives lightly are not things a princess should do."

The sharp nail pierced Empress Cao's palm, and the pain prevented her from losing her mind.

Her eyes were cold, and she looked at Xuanyuan Che with such a strong desire that she wanted to bite him to death: "Don't talk nonsense, Yue'er is young, it's inevitable that she said something wrong after being frightened, deceiving the superiors and hiding the truth from the subordinates is too serious.

"As for the disregard of human life, it is something that you should not do. Since you came here, you have been mocking Yue'er and have no manners towards me, your mother, and you have been targeting me everywhere. What exactly do you have in mind?"

I have to say, ginger is still spicy when it’s old.

With just a few words, Empress Cao pushed the blame onto Xuanyuan Che. It was Xuanyuan Yue who deceived first and lied later, but now it was Xuanyuan Che's fault that he did not like his legitimate sister and did not respect his legitimate mother.

What a good way of putting the blame on someone else. When it comes to confusing right and wrong, Queen Cao is second to none and I'm afraid no one dares to claim to be first.

Xuanyuan Che doesn't care about his reputation, otherwise he would not have turned a blind eye to the rumors that he is cold-blooded and cruel.

But just because he doesn't care doesn't mean he will allow others to slander him in person. The crime of disrespecting one's stepmother can be a big or small crime. He, Xuanyuan Che, can allow anyone to act insolently in front of him, except the Cao family.

Mesusu under the cloak felt that he was unhappy, and scratched his clothes on his chest with her little claws and swept his hands in the cloak with her tail.

She did not dare to shout and hid herself in her cloak again.

Mei Susu could never have imagined that things would develop to this point because of a little personal grudge.

In this situation, if Xuanyuan Yue saw her, Xuanyuan Che would be in a weak position, which would be extremely disadvantageous to him.

So even if it was to comfort Xuanyuan Che, she only dared to flick her tail twice in her cloak, and she wouldn't dare to do more than that.

Feeling the movements of the little one in his arms, Xuanyuan Che patted her butt with his big hand and said in a voice that only he and the little one in his arms could hear: "Are you worried about me?"
