"Oh! Could it be that you're using one eye to look at people? Three mouths talking?" Lan Fu retorted the Seventh Princess.
How could Lan Fu not know what a princess meant? It meant that if the Seventh Princess reported him to the Emperor, the Emperor might really punish him.
However, Lan Fu was still unwilling to give in. The emperor would not come to take her life just because of a daughter's willful request, right?
The emperor was a very black-bellied person in Lanfu! When it was time to be dignified, it was full of dignity. Even if it was not maintained, it would still be able to find a way out.
So Lan Fu still felt that even if the Seventh Princess complained, the Emperor would not do anything to her because of anger.
"Humph! What a sharp-tongued woman!" The Seventh Princess looked at Lan Fu seriously. She felt that she was far behind in terms of eloquence. If she wanted Lan Fu to submit to her, it would also be a difficult problem.
"It's not that I'm sharp-tongued, but that I have a reason to speak, so I won't lose my footing! It was clearly the princess who rushed onto me just now!”After Lan Fu finished speaking, she paused for a moment before continuing to speak to the Seventh Princess,""If Princess has nothing else to say, I will take my leave first!”
Lan Fu moved her body away. This time, the Seventh Princess did not stop her. Lan Fu successfully passed by the Seventh Princess and gradually approached the palace.
Lan Fu found it funny during the process. This Seventh Princess was really willful. If she didn't compromise, the Seventh Princess might bully her!
As she thought about it, Lan Fu's legs had already stepped into the palace! However, as soon as they entered the palace, Lan Fu felt a different atmosphere!
Lan Fu saw that Consort Lan and Lady Situ were already waiting in the palace... Lan Fu thought, how could the treatment be finished so quickly?
However, what made Lan Fu feel strange was why everyone in the palace was looking at him. And no one spoke.
When the Emperor saw Lan Fu, he stood up from his seat. He first examined Lan Fu a few times, then asked Lan Fu in a questioning tone,"Murong Lanfu, did you just walk back from the side of the Immortal Moon Lake?”
"Ah?" Lan Fu was startled by the Emperor's question, and then she recovered. She thought for a while and then answered the Emperor," Your Majesty, ChenQie did come back from the Fairy Moon Lake just now. What's the matter, Your Majesty?"”
After the Emperor heard Lan Fu's answer, he was silent for a few seconds.
"Do you know that the Seventeenth Prince just fell into the lake?”The Emperor's questioning tone was even more harsh, making Lan Fu feel uncomfortable all over. As for why she was uncomfortable, Lan Fu soon understood---the Seventeenth Prince fell into the water, and it was at the place where she had just passed. Was the Emperor doubting her meaning?
"ChenQie did not know, but now I know!”Lan Fu told the truth!
"Oh? Really? However, how do you explain yourself when faced with your sister and Concubine Lan's evidence? They said that you left alone to look for the hairpin of the Situ family, and before they separated from you, the Seventeenth Prince was still fine!”
It seemed like the Emperor had asked Concubine Lan and Situ Cheng some questions again.
Lan Fu didn't deny it because Concubine Lan and Ms. Situ's words were true. However, everything seemed to be too coincidental, so coincidental that it was a little strange.
" This is a conspiracy..." Lan Fu fiercely looked at Situ Shi and Concubine Lan, but the two of them had an expression of indifference and did not say anything. Lan Fu was even more certain that if Concubine Lan really wanted to be friendly with him before, she would not stand by and do nothing now.
He didn't expect the Situ Clan to get to know so many of the Emperor's concubines…
After all, Lanfu was innocent. Lanfu began to defend herself."Your Majesty, Consort Lan and Sister Situ are right, but the matter of the Seventeenth Prince falling into the water really has nothing to do with me!”
Lan Fu was now caught in a dilemma, so she began to think hard to see if she could remember anything that could remove her suspicion.
But soon, Lan Fu seemed to have a flash of inspiration and thought of something!
Didn't he meet the Seventh Princess on his way back? And he had a fight with her…Just the time of the fight was enough to prove that he did not have the time to commit the crime!
"Seventeenth brother, how did you fall into the water?”The emperor turned around and looked at the seventeenth prince who was tightly wrapped in a blanket. Because of falling into the water, the seventeenth prince kept shivering.
In addition to his young age, he was already so scared that he could not speak.
The Emperor continued to guide the Seventeenth Prince,"Seventeenth brother, have you seen that sister?”
After the 17th Prince heard the Emperor's question, he raised his head and looked at Lan Fu, then nodded…
"Did you see that? Although the Seventeenth Prince is now unable to speak because of the shock, he still remembers your appearance! What else do you have to explain?" The Emperor revealed a displeased expression.
Clearly, the Emperor already had an answer in his heart. The reward he had given Lan Fu previously was clearly against his will. The Emperor was not willing to admire a woman. So now that he had the opportunity to find something to criticize on Lanfu, why didn't he exercise his supreme rights?
Although the meaning in the words of the Seventeenth Prince seemed to Lan Fu that he had only seen her, in fact, wasn't she seen by the Seventeenth Prince before he fell into the water?
However, Lan Fu was unable to defend herself under the current circumstances. Under the strange gazes and increasing discussions of the crowd, Lan Fu's mind went blank…
"Lanfu, did you accidentally drop the Seventeenth Prince into the lake? Why don't you just admit it, because you were the only one with the Seventeenth Prince at that time…If you admit it yourself, maybe the Emperor will spare you!
At this time, Situ Group finally found an opportunity to kick Lan Fu when he was down. They simply expressed their point of view that Situ Group also believed that Lan Fu was the culprit!
"Sister Situ, I didn't push her in the first place. Why should I admit it? If that was the case, would there still be law in this world?”Lan Fu directly replied to Situ Shi. Lan Fu felt that Situ Shi's face was abnormally ugly now.
"Emperor, I don't think Lan Fu was the one who caused the Seventeenth Prince to fall into the water! After all, Lanfu is my wife. I know Lanfu very well. She's not a bad person. It was even more impossible for him to push a child casually! So there must be something fishy about this. I hope the emperor will investigate clearly!”
Tuoba Qian had already felt very strange when the news of the 17th Prince falling into the water spread. Everyone was present, but Lan Fu still did not return. This naturally led everyone's suspicion to Lan Fu.
However, what Tuoba Qian told the Emperor was also his true feelings. Even though Tuoba Qian did not know Lan Fu very well, he knew that Lan Fu would not do such a thing.
