Chapter 489: Unexpected
Counting it up, this is the second time Su Xi has come to the palace, and the first time Jing Hao has Liu Yiyi by his side.
"Wei Wuhou, long time no see. ”
I really don't want to see anyone, but I just meet anyone, and there is nothing more infuriating and helpless than this.
"The Seventh Prince. Jing Hao just said hello lightly, and they didn't like each other, this is something that everyone in the court and the central government knows, and there is no better way to pretend to be familiar with each other than to envelop each other, or to confuse everyone, but to deceive themselves.
In terms of form, Jing Hao has never been keen on it, which is one of the reasons why he and the Seventh Prince can't go together.
The three views are not only used to pay attention to husband and wife, but also friends and business partners.
"Hey, why didn't you bring Aunt Liu here this time, isn't she the most favored by Hawei Wuhou?"
Jing Hao didn't speak, just silently grabbed Su Xi's hand tightly and consciously shook it to a place where the Seventh Prince could see.
Su Xi spoke: "She went back to her parents' house." "It's very short, she really doesn't want to say a word to the Seventh Prince.
No matter how uninteresting the Seventh Prince is, when he sees Jing Hao and Su Xi's hands holding tightly, he should understand a thing or two, and his face suddenly showed a sudden look: "Oh, I understand." ”
Su Xi and Jing Hao walked behind the Seventh Prince, deliberately narrowing the distance.
Su Xi muttered softly to Jing Hao: "It's really unlucky, I haven't entered the palace yet, I met such an unappetizing person first, and I won't be able to eat for a while." ”
Jing Hao admonished: "Today, you can't get any wine, and so do meals, at most eat some fruit." ”
"Got it, you're so long-winded. ”
Not touching the wine is not only for the sake of the children in the womb, but also to prevent the emperor from drugged these drinks.
Even if you don't drug other people, just drugging Jing Hao and Su Xi is amazing, then today's action will definitely be in vain, and Jing Hao will definitely not allow such a thing to happen.
The banquet was very boring, and in Su Xi's opinion, she would rather be bored at home than be bored in this kind of court, and she had to bear everyone's attention, which was very uncomfortable, like sitting on pins and needles.
Time passed slowly, everyone drank three rounds, and the dishes had five flavors, Jing Hao was only after secretly testing the poison test given to him by Su Li, he could eat a little, but he didn't dare to eat more, the important task was always in mind, and on the surface, he had to deal with the emperor and the seventh prince politely.
And just when everyone was eating, Liu Yiyi's father, Lord Liu, suddenly shouted that he was wronged and asked the emperor to call the shots for him.
Everyone was stunned, unexpected.
This unexpected situation was never expected.
Su Xi looked at Jing Hao, and Jing Hao stared at Lord Liu tightly. Should I say that he is smart or should I say that he is stupid, if you don't say it sooner or later, you just shout grievances to the emperor when you pick up the banquet, isn't this a disappointment?
However, looking at the expected look of the Seventh Prince, coupled with the emperor's overly contrived look of surprise, Jing Hao suddenly woke up to the fact that this was clearly another play jointly performed by the three of them, and the target was naturally Jing Hao.
Lord Liu's grievances naturally refer to Liu Yiyi.
"Lord Liu, what grievances do you have?" the emperor asked decently, with a look of surprise and concern on his face.
Lord Liu was in tears, looking very sad: "Your Majesty, the daughter of the minister...... Killed. It seemed that it was very difficult to spit out these words, and everyone present was in an uproar, their faces were surprised and surprised, and for a while, there was silence, but they couldn't help but sweep their eyes back and forth on both sides of Lord Liu and Jing Hao.
"Do you know who the murderer is?" The emperor was direct, and asked the murderer when he came up, obviously he couldn't wait, but unfortunately, there were too many flaws.
Lord Liu was also skilled, and without hesitation, he pointed his finger at Jing Hao, who was raising a glass and drinking: "It's him, Wei Wuhou, he killed my daughter." ”
"What, how can this be?"
"That's it, hasn't Wei Wuhou always loved Aunt Liu the most......?
All of a sudden, everyone whispered and had different opinions, most of them held a questioning attitude, of course, this matter obviously has nothing to do with them directly, so naturally they don't have to worry about implicating themselves.
The emperor glanced at Jing Hao, who was too calm: "Marquis Wei Wu, your concubine is dead, why don't you feel any sad?"
Tsk, listening to the tone of the emperor's questioning, it is clear that Jing Hao has been identified as the murderer, even if he really wants to eradicate Jing Hao, he shouldn't be so eager, this is completely different from the usual time when he reuses Jing Hao.
Crossing the river and demolishing the bridge can be used in modern times because of the endless stream of victims, this idiom will endure and be widely used.
"Your Majesty, the minister has always believed that seeing is believing, and if he didn't see the corpse, how can he conclude that Liu Yiyi is dead?
The emperor hesitated for a moment, and subconsciously set his eyes on the Seventh Prince.
Jing Hao sneered, he really fell back more and more, when the seventh prince was the prince, he always listened to the eldest prince, but now the eldest prince has become the emperor, but he wants to see the face of the seventh prince, which is extremely ridiculous.
It seems that the Seventh Prince glanced at the emperor, and the emperor said, "Okay, you ask." ”
Lord Liu was stunned, thinking that the emperor would block it for him, but who knew that he would be allowed.
"Father-in-law, you are crying like this, I think you just learned the news, first, I didn't see Liu Yiyi's body, and second, you just rely on the words of others to determine that I am a murderer, is it a bit too arbitrary, or is it because my father-in-law has some hatred for me that he will frame me like this?"
Jing Hao spoke ruthlessly, as soon as these words came out, everyone was originally condemning Jing Hao in their hearts, but now they set their eyes on Lord Liu and agreed with what Jing Hao said.
"Wei Wuhou, are you going too far, after all, no matter how you say it, Lord Liu is also your father-in-law, how could he frame you?"
Sure enough, the Seventh Prince and the Emperor couldn't help it, they wanted to cut through the mess quickly, and so did Jing Hao, but it depends on who makes the move faster.
It is very important to take the lead in the war, and it is also very important to have the upper hand, and now the emperor and the seventh prince are obviously helping Lord Liu to speak, and anyone with a little brain can see it.
"How does the Seventh Prince know that he won't frame me?" Jing Hao asked rhetorically, and then saw the smug and even triumphant smile on the Seventh Prince's face.
"What if I have proof?"
As he spoke, the Seventh Prince beckoned, and someone took a small package and presented it to the emperor, and then said loudly: "Your Majesty, this is the evidence." ”
