The prince supports her, and the reborn princess kills people

Gu Chenan's expression froze. After explaining the situations of other princes, it was his turn finally. He even asked such a question.

It's hard not to think too much.

"What does Master Pei mean?"

Pei Zheng bowed and said in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "It means what it says. Your Highness, please answer truthfully."

Gu Chenan knew something was wrong, but he remained calm.

"How could this king possibly have correspondence with other kingdoms?"

Most people don’t believe this because...

"Your Highness Prince Chen must really like writing letters." Shen Qingyan suddenly spoke up, innocently, "I used to exchange letters with my father frequently, but he always refused to let me read them when I wanted to."

After these words were spoken, the whole audience fell silent for a moment.

Gu Chenan's face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot.

Shen Qingyan was secretly happy, but she quickly covered her mouth, looking as if she had said something wrong, and asked Gu Beihuai in a panic.

"My Lord, did I say something wrong?"

Gu Beihuai put a peeled grape into her mouth and said softly: "Yan'er is not wrong, Yan'er is telling the truth."

I have to say that in terms of acting, Gu Beihuai is not only cooperative, but also very talented.

Gu Tianyan's face also looked unhappy. Originally, he intended to protect Gu Chenan and only punished Shen Pinghe, but unexpectedly, Shen Qingyan said it openly.

Gu Chenan glanced coldly at Shen Qingyan who was separated by a tent, and said to Pei Zheng.

"Master Pei, if you have anything to say, please speak directly. I am upright and will not be afraid of slander from those with ulterior motives."

Shen Qingyan raised her eyebrows slightly. Okay, okay, she is slandering me, right?

Humph, her slander is still to come.

Pei Zheng stopped talking nonsense and directly handed over a few letters.

"This was found in the study of His Royal Highness Prince Chen. Please have a look, Your Majesty."

Gu Chenan clenched his fists suddenly and knelt down immediately.

"Father, I would never do such a thing. This must be a frame-up. Father, you are wise enough!"

Gu Tianyan glanced at the letters coldly, anger and disappointment already written on his face.

Everyone held their breath, waiting for his decision.

Pei Zheng is the same.

He knew that Gu Tianyan had shielded Gu Chenan last time. If he continued to do so this time, he would stop the emperor even if he had to give up his official position!

"madness!"

After a moment, Gu Tianyan coldly uttered two words, and then threw the letter at Gu Chenan's face.

"What good things have you done behind my back?"

Gu Chenan knew that he couldn't panic, but he was still surprised when he saw the letter with the same handwriting as his own.

"Father, this is definitely not what I did. Someone must have forged it!"

Shen Qingyan poked her head out from the gauze curtain and slowly picked up a letter, once again breaking the tense and depressing atmosphere.

"Your Highness, this is your handwriting. How could it be forged?"

After saying that, he began to read it seriously.

"I promise that the Tianfeng Kingdom and the Shouyue Kingdom will be able to form an alliance, and when I take the throne in the future..."

"shut up!"

Gu Chenan was completely panicked. He knew the letter was forged, but others didn't believe it! Shen Qingyan just read it out so openly, wasn't it pushing him into the fire pit!

He snatched the letter away, but he used too much force and Shen Qingyan was shocked and retreated repeatedly.

Ahem, of course, there is some exaggeration in this.

"Ah!" Shen Qingyan screamed and fell backwards...towards Gu Beihuai.

A gust of wind passed by, and the obstructive gauze curtain was blown away. Just as Shen Qingyan was about to fall to the ground in a mess, a warm hand wrapped around her waist, steadying her and then taking action quickly.

"boom!"

This palm hit Gu Chenan's chest hard.

Gu Chenan staggered a few steps and forced himself to steady himself to avoid making a fool of himself.

Damn it, did he and Shen Qingyan discuss this? They were fighting in the same place!

There were sounds of people gasping for air all around.

Shen Qingyan leaned safely in Gu Beihuai's arms, rubbed him quietly, and a triumphant smile appeared at the corner of her lips.

Hehe, she’s fooled me again.

Gu Tianyan was almost mad at his two sons. He slammed the table and shouted angrily.

"Presumptuous! How unbecoming!"

Gu Beihuai said calmly, "I just did what I should do to protect my woman. Compared to what my brother did, it's not outrageous."

This double entendre not only satirizes Gu Tianyan's inability to protect his woman, but also points out his favoritism towards Gu Chenan.

Everyone felt that there was not enough air around them and their hearts were in their throats.

Wonderful! Exciting! Love it!

Gu Tianyan was so angry that he had difficulty breathing. He covered his chest and was unable to speak.

The queen rolled her eyes and immediately asked loudly, "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you? Are you angry with Chen An?"

Gu Ruxiao understood immediately and quickly agreed, "Father, don't be angry. Maybe my second brother was just confused for a moment and made such a mistake..."

The mother and daughter sang the same tune, not mentioning Gu Beihuai at all, and all they blamed was Gu Chenan.

As for Your Majesty, I know you are going to faint, but don’t do it yet. Punish Gu Chenan first.

Shen Qingyan saw through their thoughts at a glance, and added with a suppressed smile: "Yes, Your Majesty, there must be something fishy about this matter. Do you want to take a closer look?"

After saying that, he picked up the letter, stuffed it into the eunuch's hand, and signaled him to hand it to the emperor quickly.

Eunuch: "..."

Gu Chenan clenched his fists and veins bulged on his forehead. He had no way of defending himself now, and even Gu Tianyan could not take his side.

He picked up a lost letter, looked at the handwriting on it carefully, and suddenly remembered something.

Only one person can imitate his handwriting.

Shen Qingyan!

Although Shen Qingyan is not good at playing the piano, chess, calligraphy or painting, she is very good at imitating handwriting. She doesn't know many words but she can imitate!

Some of the secret letters before were written by her on his behalf!

A sharp gaze suddenly shot towards Shen Qingyan, "Shen Qingyan, is it you?!"

Shen Qingyan blinked, and snuggled into Gu Beihuai's arms with an innocent and frightened look on her face.

"Your Highness, I don't understand what you mean."

Gu Beihuai held her in his arms and glanced at Gu Chenan coldly.

"Gu Chen'an, I advise you to stop now, otherwise I will no longer consider our brotherhood."

For a moment, all the people who had a say in the Hall of Supreme Harmony directed their criticism at Gu Chenan.

Gu Tianyan knew that if he continued to make a fuss, it would probably not end well, and it would only confirm the fact that he was partial to Gu Chenan.

So he said sternly: "Come here, take the prince to the Dali Temple and investigate this matter thoroughly!"

"Yes."

Pei Zheng had been waiting for a long time. Upon hearing this, he immediately ordered the guards to take Gu Chenan away. He acted decisively and would not show any leniency to Gu Chenan because of his identity.

Gu Chenan knew that arguing would only make things worse, so he could only pin his hopes on how much Gu Tianyan loved him.

His mother was once Gu Tianyan's favorite concubine. Since his mother passed away, he has received a lot of favoritism.

Shen Qingyan and Gu Beihuai looked at each other. Shen Qingyan quietly squeezed his hand and asked in a low voice: "Prince, was today's show good?"
