Dressed as a concubine instead of a concubine

Chapter 139 She is Caomin’s biological daughter

This one sentence made the people present look different.

Prince Ning'an and his wife, as well as Cui Nanjin, were puzzled.

But King Liang and Cui Panxi were horrified.

In particular, Cui Panxi’s face turned pale and she almost fainted.

How could this happen? Who sued her? Who else knows about this?

She looked at King Liang in a state of panic, hoping that he could help her.

Prince Liang also reacted quickly. He scolded, "This is nonsense. What about Princess Liang's background? Xier's background is known to everyone in the world. Who wants to deal with me? You are making random accusations."

"Pei Nan, you must be responsible for your words. Slandering the princess is a serious crime."

Facing his anger, Pei Nan remained calm and said, "Your Highness, I did not slander the princess. It's just that someone went to the Dali Temple to file a complaint. We have accepted the complaint. According to the rules, Your Highness needs to go there."

"Speaking of this, I haven't asked you yet?"

As if he had found something wrong, the King of Liang said in a cold voice, "Shouldn't this lawsuit be handled by the government? Are you, the Dali Temple, overstepping your authority? Or was this originally done by you, the Dali Temple? Who instructed you to do this?"

Prince Liang has been trying to divert the focus of the matter by directing the blame onto Prince Qi and the Dali Temple.

"Why don't you go to the government office? Doesn't King Liang understand?"

"What do you understand?" King Liang frowned. What on earth was Pei Nan keeping in suspense?

Pei Nan raised his head and smiled, "The person who came to file the complaint is named Zhao Da."

"What did you say?"

Now King Liang could no longer remain calm. He had clearly sent people to kill Zhao Da, so how could it be him?

"King Liang is so surprised, it seems that he really knows this Zhao Da." Pei Nan smiled coldly.

"The reason why Zhao Da didn't go to the government office and came directly to the Dali Temple is because Zhao Da has also filed a lawsuit against His Royal Highness Prince Liang for murder and silencing him."

Lord Yin from the government office is now King Liang's man. Going to the government office to file a complaint would be like walking into a trap.

Therefore, it was reasonable for Zhao Da to choose the Dali Temple, and because the case involved royal relatives, it was also within the rules for the Dali Temple to accept the petition.

"Zhao Da? Why does this name sound so familiar?"

Princess Ning'an frowned and looked at Prince Ning'an in confusion. She felt like she had heard it somewhere before, but couldn't remember where.

"Xier's adoptive father when she was a child was named Zhao Da."

As King Liang spoke, he looked at Cui Panxi.

He probably understood what Pei Nan meant just now. Zhao Da came to the capital, but was eliminated by King Liang. He didn't know how he survived.

What about Cui Panxi? Have you seen her?

Cui Panxi was so scared that her whole body was shaking. How could it be Zhao Da? Wasn’t he already dead?

Seeing her like this, Prince Ning'an guessed something, and even vaguely understood the reason why Cui Panxi suddenly wanted to marry Prince Liang.

"Master Pei, if that's the case, then let's go."

He wanted to see what was going on.

"No, I can't go."

Cui Panxi suddenly shouted, "That Zhao Da is just a gambler, he is talking nonsense."

"Don't worry, Princess Liang. We at the Dali Temple will definitely get to the bottom of this matter. If Zhao Da makes false accusations, we will not let him off easily."

Pei Nan replied calmly.

"No, mother, I don't want to go. I don't want to see Zhao Da. He always beat me when I was little. Whenever I see him, I get scared."

Cui Panxi finally found an excuse for her abnormal behavior. She looked at Princess Ning'an with tears in her eyes.

Princess Ning'an naturally thought of the suffering she had endured in her childhood, and quickly spoke with heartache.

"If you don't want to go, then we won't go."

"That's probably not possible. This matter mainly involves Princess Liang. She must be present."

Pei Nan was somewhat helpless about their repeated evasions. "Prince Ning'an, Prince Liang, you should know the rules of the Dali Temple. If you are unwilling to go to the Dali Temple, then I can only ask the emperor for permission to publicly try this case."

The trial is public and they have to be present even if they don’t want to. No matter what position they hold, they have to be present.

"Master Pei, Zhao Da has framed us at will, so we must go to the scene to confront him and prove our innocence."

King Liang suddenly changed his words and said, "Xi'er, don't be afraid, I will protect you. Zhao Da is just making empty promises and making false accusations at will. I will not let him off."

Cui Panxi looked at him and immediately understood what he meant. Although Zhao Da was not dead, he had no evidence from beginning to end.

At that time, no matter what he says, as long as I deny it, it will be fine.

However, after all, Zhao Da knew everything that happened. If King Ning'an believed it, it would be the same to her whether there was evidence or not.

She lowered her brows and did not answer.

Princess Ning'an grabbed her hand and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, Xi'er, you are our baby now, Princess Yiran. You are no longer the little girl who can be beaten and scolded at will. Zhao Da dare not do anything to you. Mother will protect you."

Cui Panxi's heart softened. This was what she told herself when she first met Princess Ning'an.

He said he would protect her, and she did.

But if she knew that she was not her daughter, would she still say that? Would she still protect herself?

"Let's go. Don't make things difficult for Lord Pei." King Ning'an said without allowing any room for refusal.

Although he felt sorry for his daughter, he was still more rational than his own princess.

There is obviously something hidden behind this matter, and when Pei Nan first arrived, he said that this matter involved Cui Panxi's life experience.

Then he had to figure out what was going on.

Prince Ning'an and Prince Liang both agreed to go, so naturally the others had no objections.

Cui Panxi suppressed the trembling of her body and kept saying that Zhao Da had no evidence, so she must fight to the end and never admit it.

She is Cui Panxi.

When she arrived at the Dali Temple's court, Cui Panxi's uneasiness reached its peak.

She almost fainted until she saw Zhao Dazhen appear.

"Princess." The maid quickly supported her.

Pei Nan looked at the few people and immediately signaled the servants to bring a few stools.

Generally speaking, in the court of Dali Temple, except for those who are unwell, all persons, regardless of their status, must stand during interrogation to show the fairness of the trial.

He asked someone to bring stools, not because he was trying to please them, but because he was afraid that they would not be able to withstand the confrontation that would follow.

Sit on a chair to avoid falling.

Seeing King Ning'an nod at him, Pei Nan patted the wood in his hand.

"Zhao Da, now that King Ning'an and King Liang are here, confess your grievances truthfully."

Zhao Da raised his head and looked at Cui Panxi with cloudy eyes.

"Your Excellency, before I cry out for justice, I want to first admit my fault to the Prince of Ning'an and the Princess. I'm sorry, I deceived you."

"She is not your daughter at all."

Zhao Da pointed at Cui Panxi and said firmly.

"She is Caomin's biological daughter."
