At this time, Leng Zi'an was half naked, with a rattan rod on his back. After entering the room, he knelt down on one knee, bowed his head and cupped his fists and said:

"Your Majesty, Leng Zian offended the Emperor before, and now he is here to plead guilty, please forgive him."

Seeing this scene, the emperor suddenly slapped the dragon case and roared,

"Bold, naked, come in front of me and all the adults, how decent is it? Come on!"

"and many more……"

Before the emperor finished speaking, Luo Lan raised her skirt and came in front of the crowd, she bowed and saluted slightly,

"Your Majesty, although the emperor's uncle's clothes are indecent, the thorns on his back are extraordinary. Although the thorns are produced in an ordinary place, the thorns contain many burrs that can cut people's skin. If the emperor If you don't believe me, you can take a closer look, the uncle's back has been punctured, even bloodshot, it can be seen that he came to take the blame sincerely."

Hearing what she said, everyone looked at Leng Zian's back, only to see drops of blood really dripping from his body.

The emperor was unmoved, he snorted coldly with his nose, and said disdainfully:

"So what? If he does this, can he be cleared of the crime of trying to assassinate me?"

"Of course not."

Luo Lan walked two steps forward slowly, folded her hands together, pursed her lips, and replied softly:

"When I came here just now, I ran into Uncle Huang. I saw him carrying thorns on his back, so I asked him what he meant. He said that his son Xiao Zhi didn't quite get lost last night. He was looking for it everywhere. The Linglong sword of the former emperor's imperial assassin gave him a good lesson, but he didn't want to accidentally enter the emperor's imperial study and make the emperor misunderstand, so today he took off his battle robe and came here with thorns on his back to show I apologize to the emperor and ask the emperor to punish me."

"A bunch of nonsense."

The emperor suddenly slapped the dragon case in front of him heavily, raised his eyebrows and roared, his face was as cold as ice, and his eyes were scarlet.

Seeing this, Taishi Wu also echoed, "Yes, it's a bunch of nonsense, who doesn't know that his son is no longer in this palace, maybe he was taken somewhere by you, he obviously came to ask the emperor Xingshi last night to question him."

"Xingshi asks for guilt?"

Luo Lan repeated Taishi Wu's words, and asked with a puzzled face:

"What does Taishi Wu mean by this? You said that the emperor's uncle came to Xingshi to inquire about the crime? Then what kind of crime is he asking about? I swear to ask who in the entire Daning Kingdom does not know that the emperor is loyal to his ministers and loves the people. What is the emperor's crime?"

Her words made Taishi Wu speechless for a moment, and he even regretted what he said by mistake just now.

"Stop arguing."

The emperor roared again, "Leng Zian, you brought your sword to my court last night. No matter what your purpose is, you shouldn't. Today you let people from your Yunnan palace come straight to the capital. Don't use others to block it for you!" Let’s talk about it yourself, what do you want to do?”

Leng Zian thought that today he had to get out of his body no matter what, and he had to think about his son for nothing else, so he didn't dare to speak loudly, but tightened his expression, lowered his head, and replied softly :

"Your Majesty, what happened last night was really... really an accident. My son really... really hid it because he didn't want to go back to Yunnan with me. I watched him enter the door of the imperial study, so I followed him in." , it was already late at that time, I didn't have time to look up, and I didn't realize that it was the Imperial Study Room until I went in."

Obviously, the emperor would not believe his rhetoric, but the emperor did not expose him, but continued to ask:

"Then it seems that the soldiers from your Yunnan palace came to the city this morning, and they were really there to pick up your son?"

"Correct."

Leng Zian nodded heavily, but the emperor laughed contemptuously.

At this moment, Wu Hong strode towards him. When the emperor saw him, he pointed at him and asked,

"General Wu, tell me, the officers and soldiers from the Yunnan Prince's Mansion, from the look of their aura, did they come to pick them up with happy faces, or came to attack the city to save people with angry faces?"

Hearing the emperor's question, everyone turned their attention to Wu Hong. At this time, his words will definitely become the most powerful explanation. Grand Master Wu even raised his head proudly. He expected that his son would definitely explain what happened today. It would not be easy for Leng Zian to escape.

Unexpectedly, Wu Hong tightened his expression, and directly cupped his fists and said:

"Your Majesty, the matter at the gate of the city this morning was indeed a misunderstanding after the investigation of the minister. The people from the Yunnan Palace came to pick him up, and the commotion was indeed a bit louder. The officers and soldiers guarding the city had never seen this posture, so we just He was so frightened that he closed the city gate directly, which caused the panic of the people and the misunderstanding of the people, including the ministers."

As soon as he said this, everyone present was surprised, even the emperor had a puzzled look on his face.

Taishi Wu even reminded him directly with his eyes, seeing that he didn't look at him at all, he said directly:

"Hong'er, did you say the wrong thing?"

Seeing that his father was questioning in such a harsh tone, Wu Hong hurriedly replied:

"I didn't say anything against it. If this matter is true, I hope the emperor will learn from it."

As soon as he said this, Grand Master Wu dared not to pursue the matter any further, he knew better than anyone else that if his son told lies to the emperor, it would be a crime of deceiving the emperor.

So, he changed his tone and said directly:

"Even so, the incident of him trespassing on the imperial study room last night is unjustifiable, and it was obviously a lie. How could there be his son in the imperial study room?"

Hearing what he said, Luo Lan raised her eyebrows, raised the corners of her mouth, and said softly:

"Your Majesty, I can prove this. Xiao Zhi's child is naughty by nature. Now, he may have gone somewhere. Maybe he is in the Palace of Preserving Harmony."

Hearing this, the emperor suddenly frowned and snorted coldly. He knew it must be a trick played by Shui Luolan and Leng Zian, and he didn't know what happened to these two people. Yesterday Leng Zian wanted to kill her, but today she would speak for him.

At this time, Huang Shixiong said sarcastically again:

"King Zhennan's excuse is really good. On the day your so-called son was injured, everyone saw that he had passed away, but now you say that he is hiding cats and cats. Could it be that your brain is not working after being stimulated? If it is true In this way, I believe that the emperor will not punish you, a crazy person."

"You're crazy."

As soon as Huang Shixiong finished speaking, Leng Zi'an responded angrily, and then said angrily:

"Everything I said just now is true. Now my son must have come to the Palace of Preserving Harmony again. He likes to hide in lively places."

Hearing this, everyone present sighed for a while, and the emperor's face was even more disdainful.

He half-closed his eyes, raised his hand heavily and patted the dragon case in front of him, and roared angrily,

"Okay, Leng Zi'an, don't play tricks here. My Hall of Preserving Harmony is cleaned every morning, not even a single crack in the brick is left untouched, yet you say your son is in the Hall of Preserving Harmony? This is simply a fantasy pool."
