Chapter 338: Women Heroes (28)
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, something is wrong, Lord Xiao Yu Xiao knelt outside the palace and accused King Changqing of killing the former Empress Xiao of the Great Sui, and there are witnesses and material evidence, please ask the emperor to make decisions for Empress Xiao. When Li Yuan took the family and He Lele, the attendant ran in in a panic and knelt down to pray.
Li Yuan's face darkened when he heard this, "What kind of human and physical evidence?"
"Lord Xiao has already knelt outside, please ask the emperor to move. The chamberlain didn't dare to answer, but relayed Xiao Yu's words, and Li Yuan's expression was even worse, "He let me go out, instead of coming in?"
"Yes!" the chamberlain was eager to shrink himself into a ball. Li Yuan snorted coldly, "Let's go, follow me into the inner hall." ”
When I entered the inner hall, I wanted to see Yan Yuan, Yan Yuan did this right, it hasn't been turned up by everyone for so many years, so who turned it out, but Yan Yuan's people?
As soon as Yan Yuan heard the whole story, he said to Li Yuan: "What is my father afraid of, since the human and material evidence is there, let's go and take a look." ”
Hearing her say that she didn't care so much, Li Yuan almost didn't spit out a mouthful of old blood, "This matter can be big or small, if Xiao Yu is a private relationship with me, it's okay, how I want to deal with it is a matter of my words, if this matter is heard outside the palace, the whole dynasty will know, and at that time, how to deal with you is not my alone." ”
"Lord Xiao obviously doesn't want my father to suppress this matter, in other words, Lord Xiao wants to put me to death. No, it should be said that someone is going to borrow Lord Xiao's hand to take my life. This is really a big gift, a wedding gift!" Yan Yuan smiled.
"Lord Xiao dares to say this in front of the palace, there must be ironclad evidence, otherwise he will not act recklessly. Li Shimin reminded him, and Yan Yuan sneered: "Since I dare to kill people, I am not afraid of people turning it out." ”
Yan Yuan is not afraid, but others are afraid, Li Yuan said: "You are not killing ordinary people, it is the queen of the previous dynasty." ”
"A queen who cares about human life and wants to kill the courtiers and daughters, it is natural for me to take revenge, even if he has evidence that I killed the Xiao family, I also have evidence to prove that the Xiao family deserves to die, since he is not afraid of the Xiao family's reputation plummeting, what am I afraid of?" Yan Yuan said the reason why he had no fear, Li Shimin said: "Everything must always be reasonable, it is the Xiao family who wants to kill his mother and Yuan'er first, and Yuan'er killed the Xiao family in order to never suffer in the future, it is the Xiao family's own fault." ”
Li Jiancheng said: "If someone asks why Xiao Shi wants to put his mother and Yuan'er to death?"
Li Yuan is in a hurry, this matter must not be made out. Yan Yuan said confidently: "How do we know why the Xiao family is doing something to us, people who want to know go and ask the Xiao family, as long as it proves that the Xiao family is vicious and wants to kill people." ”
What they say is, if they don't say it, no one will ever know about it.
"That being the case, go out with me. The big stone in Li Yuan's heart fell, let Yan Yuan go with him, and Yan Yuan smiled as it should be. Dou also said that he wanted to go, yesterday was Yan Yuan's wedding day, and today there was such a thing, and Dou also wanted to find out who was so bold.
The Li family and his entourage marched to the palace gate, and Xiao Yu greeted him and said, "The minister knocks to see the emperor, the queen." ”
"Shi Wen, let's talk about something. Li Yuan spoke gently at Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, my sister died unjustly, and I ask the emperor to seek justice for my sister." ”
Li Yuan's face turned black all of a sudden, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he asked him to seek justice, did he want him to kill his own daughter with his own hands to avenge Empress Xiao? Not to mention that Empress Xiao really deserves to die, even if Empress Xiao doesn't deserve to die, Li Yuan can't kill his own daughter for a woman!
Therefore, looking at Xiao Yu's gaze, Xiao Yu didn't notice anything. "When my sister disappeared, the ministers and other families only thought that my sister was lost and could always be found, and they didn't want to hear about this big change, but it was King Changqing who killed my sister. Your Majesty, even though my sister is not the queen of the previous dynasty, but she is the daughter of our Xiao family, King Changqing killed my sister, this is physical evidence, and there are other witnesses here, please let the emperor know it. ”
Besides, Li Yuan took the so-called physical evidence handed over by Xiao Yu, and then looked at a girl kneeling beside Xiao Yu, and handed it over to Yan Yuan, Yan Yuan took it and took a closer look, the so-called physical evidence was a poison bottle, which was indeed the bottle she used when she asked people to fill Xiao with medicine, Yan Yuan did not suspect that there was a traitor around him, he did not suspect people, he did not use suspicious people, and the people who could make Yan Yuan take him with him were all taught by Yan Yuan since he was a child, and they were absolutely reliable.
Then the appearance of this bottle was a little surprised, and the breath that this girl gave her was also strange.
"You, look up. Yan Yuan spoke to the girl, and the girl who originally lowered her head slowly raised her head when she heard it, and gasped, with a moth eyebrow, an apricot face and peach cheeks, autumn water in her eyes, and her skin like congealed fat.
But it would be better if there was no hatred when he looked at Yan Yuan. Yan Yuan smiled, "Xiao Clan!"
A panic flashed in the girl's eyes, and Yan Yuan's smile deepened. "Lord Xiao, before you want to condemn me, I think you should know something, such as why I killed Xiao. Except for the two armies fighting each other and fighting on the battlefield, I dare say that I have never killed an innocent person in my hands. In this way, Lord Xiao still decided to make it clear in front of this hall?"
Xiao Yu was stunned, facing Yan Yuan, Yan Yuan had just admitted that she killed the Xiao family, and Xiao Yu was also impressed by this bearing.
"The minister has no form, offending the emperor. Xiao Yu knelt down and pleaded guilty, Li Yuan said: "Shiwen get up, let's go in and say." ”
He glanced back at the girl, he thought that he could see it hidden, but he didn't know that it was all in the eyes of Dou and Yan Yuan. But they were silent.
Entering the inner hall, Xiao Yu asked Yan Yuandao: "What did King Changqing mean in his words just now?"
"I think there is someone Xiao that Lord Xiao must know. Yan Yuan high-fived, and an old grandmother walked out, Xiao Yu recognized the person with just one glance, "Rong Niangzi." ”
"County King!" Mama called Xiao Yu's former title, the king of Xin'an County, Xiao Yu glanced at the girl beside her, although she quickly retracted her gaze, Yan Yuan saw it in her eyes. "Since Lord Xiao knows this person, he should know that she is Xiao's henchman, can Lord Xiao believe what she said?"
Xiao Yu moved his lips, unable to speak for a long time, as Yan Yuan said, Rong Niangzi is Xiao's henchman, he knows in his heart, this person disappeared after Yang Guang's death, at that time the world was in chaos, he couldn't even protect Xiao's, let alone a servant.
Yan Yuan didn't wait for Xiao Yu's answer, turned around and took a stack of confessions from the maid's hand, "This is the confession of the former imperial doctor Zheng in the palace, Mrs. Qiu of the former Ministry of Rites, Mrs. Xiao, Queen Xiao is the sister of Lord Xiao, Mrs. Xiao of the Ministry of Rites is also the sister of Lord Xiao, Queen Xiao is dead, Mrs. Qiu is still alive, Lord Xiao may as well go to meet Mrs. Qiu after reading the confession, and ask clearly." ”
Xiao Yu snatched the confession in Yan Yuan's hand and flipped through it with some gaffes, the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became, Yan Yuan stood in front of him and waited for Xiao Yu to finish reading, and his whole body was already weak and paralyzed.
"Lord Xiao, I gave you the answer, and now I also ask Lord Xiao to answer my doubts. For example, how did Lord Xiao know that Empress Xiao was dead in my hands?Who is she?" Yan Yuan pointed at the girl, the girl lowered her head, Xiao Yu took a deep breath, "This is Xiao Hui, the niece of the family." In the matter of Empress Xiao, the minister received a letter a few days ago, bluntly saying that it was King Changqing who killed Empress Xiao. The minister didn't believe it, but Xiao Hui asked to see him last night, and pointed out that Empress Xiao had a dream, saying that his death was unjust, and he took out a dry piece of physical evidence. The emperor, the minister, deserves death. ”
Bowing his head and confessing, Li Yuan glanced at Yan Yuan, Yan Yuan sneered, "Let me ask Lord Xiao again, who gave Lord Xiao the idea to kneel in front of the palace gate and point directly at me killing Empress Xiao?"
Xiao Yu, who was originally bowing his head, heard this question, and his whole person trembled, "King Changqing?"
"Lord Xiao, I also called you Lord Xiao because of my respect for you, but the person who gave you this idea wanted me to die from the beginning, if it weren't for the fact that I have never killed innocent people, and I am used to keeping the evidence, I can't tell ten mouths today. This man wants to kill me, how can I not find out his identity? Lord Xiao, you have two choices, first, tell me who that person is, and second, I will tell you what Empress Xiao has done. Yan Yuan squatted in front of Xiao Yu, looked at him at eye level, and showed her strength.
"King Changqing was able to let go of the Xiao clan at the beginning, so why bother with each other now. Xiao Yu's face was embarrassed, and Yan Yuan snorted coldly: "What did I get by letting you Xiao Shi get a horse, it was Lord Xiao who came to the palace gate to kill me." Speaking of which, if the Xiao family is ruined, Lord Xiao can complain about the dead Empress Xiao and yourself, then he can't blame me. I only punish the evil, and I have never embarrassed the Xiao family, including Lord Xiao, what did I get in exchange? It was Lord Xiao who wanted to put me to death! Since everything has been said, then simply explain it. To tell you the truth, if Lord Xiao doesn't say who gave you the idea, won't I find out? I give Lord Xiao a chance, and if Lord Xiao doesn't grasp it, then don't blame me. ”
Speaking of this, Xiao Yu glanced up at Li Yuan and called the emperor. Li Yuan said: "Shiwen, I also want to know who wants to put my King Changqing to death. You cherish the reputation of the Xiao family, and my son's reputation is equally important. ”
Li Yuan showed that he was protecting Yan Yuan, Xiao Yu took a deep breath, and finally said, "Back to the emperor, it's the king of Qi." ”
This answer really surprised the whole house, and Dou looked at Yan Yuan at the same time, but Yan Yuan did not have the slightest look of surprise, which made Dou's heart tighten. And Yan Yuan's words made Dou completely understand his conjecture, "Sure enough, it's him." ”
There's no sadness, there's no sadness, it's just a kind of sure thing. Yesterday she married Luo Cheng, Li Yuanji did not participate because of his serious injury, and he did not see Li Yuanji today, according to Li Yuanji's mentality, she abolished his martial arts, and beat him with a hundred military sticks in front of everyone, he must hold a grudge. Li Yuanji can't do righteous and bright things, but he can do it with a knife in the back.
"This girl stays, Empress Xiao can dream with you, it seems that you have a deep relationship!" Yan Yuan pointed at the girl Xiao Hui and spoke, Xiao Hui looked at Yan Yuan in fear, and called pleadingly, "Uncle." ”
"Is it uncle, or brother?" Yan Yuan approached Xiao Hui's ear and whispered, Xiao Hui's whole person froze, Xiao Yu spoke: "My niece offended King Changqing without a complaint, and if King Changqing wants to blame, blame Yu Chen, it has nothing to do with her." ”
Yan Yuan said: "Lord Xiao is too worried, I'm just curious about how Empress Xiao can have the face to dream that she died unjustly?" So I want to ask Miss Xiao, who has a deep relationship with her, to ask her, and in a few days, I will send Miss Xiao Hui back to your house safe and sound." ”
Having said that, who can say half a word? Xiao Yu was originally weak-hearted, but he just let Xiao Hui stay in Yan Yuan's hands for a few days, it was no big deal. Xiao Yu had to confess to Li Yuan again and again, Yan Yuan didn't speak again, and Li Yuan and Xiao Yu staged a scene of harmony between the monarch and the minister.
Because of this incident, no one was in the mood to be in the mood to be normal anymore, and the Dou clan had the heart to ask Yan Yuan what happened to her and Li Yuanji? Li Yuanji led Li Yuanba to be killed by thunder, but Li Yuan and Yan Yuan concealed it to death, and the Dou clan did not receive the slightest rumor. Yan Yuan's injury has not been fully recovered for more than a month, and this matter will not be noticed by the Dou family.
But Yan Yuan only got married yesterday, and he had to go back to Luo's house to recognize his relatives, so Dou told Yan Yuan to let Yan Yuan take some time to enter the palace, and then sent Yan Yuan and Luo Cheng out of the palace.
"Xiao's heart is not right, why do you want to take her back to the house?" Luo Cheng rode a horse when he entered the palace, Yan Yuan sat in the carriage, but when he left the palace, Luo Cheng couldn't help but squeeze into Yan Yuan's carriage, and immediately asked the doubts in his heart.
"You said you can see it, why can't the person who has lived a lot of age see it?" Yan Yuan said regretfully, Luo Cheng smiled, "Xu is mentality is different, after all, such a peerless beauty, those who can sit still are determined people." ”
Yan Yuan glanced at Luo Cheng when he listened, Luo Cheng smiled at her, Yan Yuan said: "I asked her to send her back to Changqing Mansion, a few days is enough time for me to figure out everything I want to know from her mouth." ”
"What does Your Highness want to know?" Luo Cheng asked with some curiosity. Yan Yuan said: "The dream is fake, and I only believe it when I borrow the corpse to return the soul." ”
Luo Cheng was stunned, but understood what Yan Yuan meant, "She has such luck?"
Yan Yuan couldn't help but laugh at one sentence, "Whether there are facts in front of us, we have to admit it." When I killed Xiao Shi, I really didn't expect that she would have such good luck and come back to life. If she hadn't come to me with such fanfare, maybe I would have really gotten her way. Now, hehe......"
Luo Chengshen thought that Xiao's IQ was definitely inferior to Yan Yuan, if it weren't for his lack of self-knowledge, he would never have faced Yan Yuan like this in order to help "himself" avenge, you must know that she was at fault in the first place, it was she who wanted to kill Dou and Yan Yuan, and Yan Yuan would kill her.
Thinking that Xiao Shi must have thought that Yan Yuan killed her, he would definitely lose all the evidence about the evil things she had done, but he didn't expect that Yan Yuan would never easily lose the evidence of the crime, so that Xiao Shi couldn't take revenge, but was exposed under Yan Yuan's nose. In the past, she was the queen of the Great Sui Dynasty, but she couldn't help Yan Yuan, not to mention that the status between them had already reversed, compared to a person who could only be in charge of Yang Guanghou and the palace, Yan Yuan commanded the three armies and commanded the world, which was not comparable to the Xiao family.
