Chapter 257: Guo Jia is arrested
The news came back from outside the customs, and the emperor began to order a thorough investigation of the case of the concubine, and at this time, he realized that the concubine Niangniang, who had always been amiable and never showed her temperament, was inextricably linked with the previous dynasty!
The emperor was furious and ordered the concubine Niangniang and Lu Zheng to be beheaded in the vegetable market on the same day. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 On the day of the execution, the vegetable market was crowded, and almost all of them were ordinary people who came to see the excitement!
And since Xun Fu escaped in the hands of Wanli and Shaoling last time, Guo Jia did not reveal his identity to the government. Otherwise, the streets and alleys in Yongning City would have already been plastered with Xun Fu's portrait.
Since Du Ruobai was beheaded, the army commanded by the five lieutenant generals led by Chu Rui was invincible, and in less than half a month, all the lost land was recovered. At the same time, Wei Lan led tens of thousands of elite soldiers from outside the border to enter Beijing in triumph. On the day he returned to Yongning City, the emperor personally greeted him outside the city gate, and the onlookers caused a sensation in the empty alleys. Wei Lan rode a horse and stood in the center of the crowd to greet the cheers of the people, but the expression on his face was faint.
There was no sign of her in the crowd······
Wei Lan lowered his eyes slightly, hiding the loss in his eyes by nine points.
By the time the fighting on both northwestern sides was over, three months had passed since the war began. In the past three months, Yongning City has crossed several cold days, the thick snow has begun to melt, and the grass and trees have ushered in a vibrant spring.
In this beautiful spring, Guo Jia is going to marry Wei Lan.
Speaking of which, Guo Jia still can't believe it in her heart! After all, since Wei Lan's victorious return, she has never visited him under the pretext of being sick, let alone said a word to him! And Wei Lan never came to visit her again when Guo Jia had insomnia at night.
The relationship between the two is clearly close, but they have strangely become strangers who never seem to have known each other······
Guo Jia can't figure it out, and Wei Lan can't figure it out either!
In such a cold atmosphere, the Loyal Marquis Mansion was beaming. But less than two days before the wedding, a sensational event happened in Yongning City - someone sued the emperor!
The complainant is a little girl in the mansion of the Marquis of Faithful. When gossipy people inquired about the news through various channels, they were very unfamiliar with the name.
However, the people in the Mansion of the Marquis of Zhongxin were very familiar, because this person was Sun Xiaohu's sister Sun Xiaorong.
Sun Xiaorong kept saying that she had caught Guo Jia's crime and accused Guo Jia of bullying the king, not only was she not qualified to marry Wei Lan, but she also committed a capital crime. The emperor is dissatisfied with Guo Jia, but he is worried that there is no suitable excuse to stop this marriage, and now that Sun Xiaorong has come to sue, the emperor is of course full of joy!
He looked at the thin girl in front of him condescendingly, and said, "What do you want to sue the Guo family's daughter, tell me!" ”
Sun Xiaorong said without humility or arrogance: "Your Majesty, the slave maid was originally a little girl who grew up in the mountains and villages, but Guo Jia's guy not only forced my brother to death, but also arrested me and forced the slave and maid to go to the Loyal Marquis Mansion to be a slave and a maid!" The slave and maid swallowed their anger and stayed in the Loyal Marquis Mansion for more than a year, and they originally wanted to accept their fate like this! But one day, the slave maid found that the eldest lady would change into a man's costume every few days and go out quietly, not knowing what to do. The slave knew that there must be something strange in this, and once found an excuse to go out to follow, but never thought that the slave and maid would discover a shocking secret! ”
"Oh? What secret? The Emperor stood up, as if he was a little interested.
Sun Xiaorong said loudly: "Your Majesty, the slave maid found out that the eldest lady originally had another identity, that is, the pianist of the largest Kabuki hall in Yongning City-Shen Qing!" ”
"Shen Qing?" This name made the emperor shake his head for a moment, and he immediately remembered that when the princes of various countries entered the capital, the queen mother seemed to have mentioned the name of this person, and this person's piano skills were heard to be first-class in the entire Yongning City. Isn't that man dead?
The emperor narrowed his eyes and said, "Little girl, do you know what the crime of bullying the king is?" ”
Sun Xiaorong kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty, the slave will never dare to lie!" The slave conjecture. It must be that Shen Qing's identity is about to be discovered by someone, and the eldest lady has no choice but to make this decision, and there is also a fraud to die. In this way, not only did Shen Qing disappear without a trace, but Guo Jia's relationship was also wiped out. Your Majesty, just ask a woman from a well-known family, who would go to such a pickled place to show her head? If such a person marries the prince, wouldn't it be an insult to the majesty of the emperor and a disgrace to you! Your Majesty, please be careful! ”
The emperor was shocked by this fact, he summoned his personal guards and ordered: "Go, put the Guo girl in the heavenly prison!" ”
The personal guard hesitated and asked, "Uh... Your Majesty, do you need to ask first? ”
The emperor waved his hand: "There is no need for this!" If King Liang comes to me, he will say that I am gone! ”
The personal guard got the order and immediately ran.
When Guo Jia received the news, the whole person was blind. She was put in prison in a daze, and she didn't even know what the crime was. Guo Sheng immediately asked Hongshang to go to King Liang's Mansion to find King Liang, and then told the news to the various branches of the Guo family. I have to say that the emperor's speed this time was very fast, and even when Wei Lan received the news, his face became very ugly, obviously only knowing the news. He immediately entered the palace to ask to see the emperor, but the emperor had ordered in advance, and Wei Lan was blocked from the forbidden palace. It's just that he quickly inquired about the ins and outs.
Wei Lan, who was extremely angry, ordered everyone in the whole house to go to Sun Xiaorong, vowing to break her body into thousands of pieces before he was willing to give up. However, Sun Xiaorong disappeared without a trace, and she was no longer visible.
Wu Wei came to report: "Your Highness, your subordinates guess that Sun Xiaorong ······ I'm afraid it's gone······"
Wei Lan nodded: "Yes, Your Majesty destroyed Sun Xiaorong, which can be regarded as cutting off our back road!" If Your Majesty continues to investigate like this, it will inevitably find out Xun Fu's identity, and at that time, not only Jia'er's life will not be guaranteed, but even the entire Fengyue Mansion will be difficult to say! ”
Wu Wei asked, "Then, Your Highness, what should we do now?" ”
Wei Lan narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "If you want to add to the crime, why bother? Your Majesty just wants to break us up, and he won't do anything to Jia'er. After all, the weight of the Faithful Marquis in the heart of the Holy Lord is worth more than half of me. (To be continued.) )
