Chapter 40

The emperor did not want to make Jun Xuelan angry in the Ning Dynasty, so he found an excuse to send her away and put it on the imperial tomb. Perhaps he wanted to comfort King Ning with the saying that Jun Yuanxi was guarding Jun Xuelan for the tomb. And calling Jun Jiuning to the banquet should be to clear her misunderstanding.

Qiuyue whispered: "The princess herself has not been completely poisoned yet, so she has to block the gun again."

Jun Jiuning said lightly: "My father is doing this trick, and I didn't hear any news. However, it's too naive to try to escape accountability in this way."

Even if King Ning doesn't take action, Jun Jiuning will have to let her know what the consequences will be for hurting innocent people.

Let's see.

Jun Jiuning put a little rouge on her lips, which made her skin look like jade. She sighed in a long sigh: "Qiuyue, let's go. Let's go to this Hongmen banquet."

Emperor Wen held a banquet in Zhengtai Hall, and the imperial kitchen prepared a full banquet for Man and Han, but only the two emperors' close relatives came to the banquet.

Jun Jiuning had arrived a long time ago. As soon as he saw King Ning enter the door, he got up and bowed, and asked him very thoughtfully.

King Ning was still cold in his face. When he saw Jun Jiuning, he paused and nodded stiffly.

When facing the emperor, although King Ning did not forget to salute, he spoke in a tough manner: "I will meet the emperor."

The emperor knew that he was in the wrong, and felt guilty, so he didn't care about him so much.

"Why should I be so polite to you, get up quickly and sit down."

Eunuch Liu, who had served the emperor for many years, came forward in person to pour wine for King Ning. This was naturally the emperor's instructions, so he would like to pay a gift first.

King Ning raised it without waiting for hello and drank it all. Some wine stains slid down from his throat, all of which showed his rudeness.

The emperor's hand holding the wine glass couldn't help but tighten.

"The emperor brother asked me to come, but is there any mistake in chasing the murderer?" Ning Wang rudely wiped away the wine left on his lips, and his pair of hawk eyes stared at Emperor Wen without hesitation.

Emperor Wen seemed to be unable to speak out, so he also drank a glass of wine and waved his hand at Eunuch Liu.

After receiving the order, Eunuch Liu shook the folds on his face and hesitated and said: "The Second Princess was a little admirable to Lord Mu Yun, and was sought to find someone to tamper with the princess and the prime minister to find some unhappiness. Unwilling to be taken advantage of, a great palace maid who made enemies with the princess took the opportunity to replace the laxatives with severe poison, which led to a tragedy. The emperor has sent someone to execute the evil palace maid, and his accomplices will also send them to the Ning Prince's Mansion for the prince to deal with, and the second princess..."

At this time, Emperor Wen raised his hand, and Eunuch Liu stopped talking and retreated aside.

Jun Jiuning's eyes had already looked angry, and what Liu Bing said was simply out of nothing! She looked at Emperor Wen with some disappointment: Although she had long thought that Emperor Wen would never let Jun Yuanxi take the blame and get the punishment she deserved, she did not expect that he would involve so many other people to take the blame and try to calm King Ning's anger.

Obviously Emperor Wen also knew that this statement was too unconvincing, and King Ning would not give up, so he had to come forward and exonerate Jun Yuanxi: "Yuan Xi was also confused. He was accidentally used by others and harmed Xue Lan. I have already punished her to leave the palace to think about her for a year and pray for Xue Lan. The emperor's brother... the dead are gone. I will add Xue Lan to the posthumous title of the princess and to bury her with the specifications of the legitimate princess. I hope you can forgive Yuanxi."

After hearing what Emperor Wen said, Jun Jiuning was cold-hearted for King Ning.

His daughter died inexplicably, and his brother wanted to protect the murderer, and even asked him to forgive the murderer who killed the daughter.

This is too much!

But although Jun Jiuning was full of anger, she knew that she should be at the right time and could not refute or even contradict Emperor Wen in front of King Ning. But she was still so angry that she poked the dishes in her bowl with chopsticks, thinking about how to secretly teach Jun Yuanxi a lesson.

The dinner table suddenly became quiet because of Emperor Wen's words.

King Ning lowered his head and said nothing, the heavy atmosphere made people breathless.

Jun Jiuning took a breath, and was about to find a topic to relieve the air that seemed to be frozen in the room, but Ning Wang suddenly looked up, his deep eyes were covered with red blood.

He spoke in a hoarse voice: "Brother, you know. I have a bad temper since I was a child and don't like to study. I was taught a lesson by my father and mother in the palace all day long. Later, I brought soldiers and earned some achievements, which made me a little good-looking. Miaomiao didn't dislike me at that time. A young lady from a scholarly family married me as a martial artist and gave birth to a smart daughter for me. You don't know how happy I am."

Emperor Wen's eyes flashed and he said in a deep voice: "Brother..."

King Ning interrupted him and said as if no one was around: "Later, Miaomiao was weak and accidentally died when she gave birth to her second child. I thought to myself that Xue Lan was still there, so I also supported her. Looking at her year by year, from being able to pluck my calves to growing so high on my shoulders, she would make me a cloak, cook a bowl of sober soup for me, and love to call me dad at home every day."

"Last time Xue Lan suffered from cold symptoms, I kept guarding her, for fear that she would go with Miaomiao in the blink of an eye."

King Ning suddenly grinned, looked at Jun Jiuning, and showed an ugly smile: "I have to thank the eldest princess for pulling Lan'er back to me from the gate of hell."

Jun Jiuning looked at him sadly, his tongue was bitter, his lips seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and he couldn't open his mouth and said even a word of comfort.

She knew that there was no empathy in this world, let alone the pain of losing her closeest loved ones. What is her right to understand? What position should she stand to sympathize with King Ning?

"Uncle Wang, you're welcome, I should have done this." Jun Jiuning lowered his eyes and whispered.

King Ning picked up the wine pot, poured himself a full glass of wine for Emperor Wen, Jun Jiuning.

He fell too hard, and transparent liquid overflowed from the cup and penetrated into the gorgeous tablecloth, like the tears of a newlywed bride dripping on her wedding dress.

King Ning raised his glass and looked at the father and daughter opposite him deeply. In a trance, he seemed to see him and Jun Xuelan eating on the table.

"Since the emperor has avenged me, I will respect you and the elder princess. No matter what, thank you for letting Xue Lan stay by my side for a while. To show my respect, I will do it first."

King Ning raised his head and poured the hot spirit into his throat without leaving a drop of the hot wine, and plastered the empty wine glass on the table.

"My brother is not in good health, so he will take his leave first."

Before leaving the door, King Ning couldn't help but look back and quietly looked at Emperor Wen and Jun Jiuning. The eyes were neither happy nor sad, but suddenly felt a chill on Jun Jiuning's back.

In the end, he stepped out of the palace gate step by step, but just said something, but the palace servants following him were covered in goose bumps: "There are heads and debts, and the impermanence knocks on the door, and you will not be able to get the wrong soul. Hahahahahaha..."
