Chapter 249 Convictions
The emperor's words exploded in the mourning hall like a thunderbolt, and everyone didn't dare to breathe, and their puzzled eyes were on the queen, Yan Xi and the two of them fluttered back and forth, as if they wanted to see a little bit of clue from their expressions.
If they have doubts, they don't dare to talk more, this is the emperor's family matter, and they dare not go over.
The empress's beautiful eyes stayed on the emperor, biting the corners of her lip with an aggrieved face, and there were crystal tears in her eyes, as if she was protesting against what the emperor said.
Yan Ximian was in response to the emperor's questioning, her heart trembled, her eyebrows twisted, the queen did let her do something in Xiang Guifei's medicine, but she didn't do it.
Why did the emperor insist that it was the empress who ordered it, could it ......
Yan Xi didn't have time to think about it, raised his clear eyes to look at the emperor, and shook his head desperately to explain.
"No, Concubine Xiang's death has nothing to do with me or the queen, someone wants to harm me and the queen, please let the emperor know."
Hum......
Perceive? The corners of the emperor's thick mouth outlined a sneer, as if he had heard a big joke, his eyes showed a touch of murderous intent staring straight at Yan Xi with an aggrieved face.
"Do you want Jie'er to say it again, you still quibble when you die. Do you have to go to your dormitory to confess your sin? ”
Yan Xi was stunned, her clear eyes as clear as water gently turned to look at Mu Jingjie, who was crying and sad, she gritted her teeth and forced Mu Jingjie to ask.
"Do you have anything unspeakable, you can tell me. But please don't frame me. ”
Mu Jingjie's eyes were full of tears, Xiuya's face was full of sadness, and she shook her head at everyone.
"Yan Xi. Don't force me to break my conscience. You did, what's the use of you asking me to lie for you. You'd better be truthful! ”
Yan Xi smiled, he was really a vicious person. Do you have to kill her?
Mu Jingjie insisted that she did it, so it was useless for her to explain. No one in this world will believe that she is innocent. I believe that all the evidence is in her dormitory, and her explanation is futile.
"Okay, Miss Mu, don't say more." She turned her gaze back to look at the domineering and resentful emperor, fearless and fearless.
"Your Majesty, the minister said that he was innocent. You won't believe it either. actually wants to take a blame, then listen to the emperor's fate, and the minister doesn't want to defend himself. Actions speak louder than words. It's just that the emperor can't see the facts. It's good that you move the anger minister, don't anger the queen, this matter has nothing to do with the queen's mother. ”
Everyone speculated about the truth of the matter, but everyone didn't dare to discuss it.
The queen's face was calm. but the wind and rain swept through the heart. Unexpectedly, Yan Xi didn't betray herself at the last moment, her heart was full of emotion, her eyes secretly glanced at Yan Xi, and nodded appreciatively at her.
In the face of Yan Xi's words, the emperor just sneered, and his eyes stared at Yan Xi more and more.
"Yan Xi murdered the concubine, a capital crime, and someone came to put Yan Xi in prison. Ask for the same day. "A firm voice that brooks no argument from anyone.
Yan Xi's face was calm, as if the person he wanted to ask was someone else, not himself. She just glanced at Mu Jingjie, the corners of her mouth tugged slightly, and she smiled weakly, as if she was laughing at Mu Jingjie's despicable methods.
Mu Jingjie turned a blind eye to Yan Xi's ridicule, her goal had been achieved, and she wouldn't care about other things.
The guards guarding the door stepped into the mourning hall with heavy steps, and stepped forward to take Yan Xi with an expressionless face.
Yan Xi slowly stood up and followed the guards out of the mourning hall, her heart was like the wind and snow blowing, very cold and cold.
It was because she was too stupid and believed in friendship that she would get such an embarrassing end today.
She knew that no one in this world could be trusted, but she couldn't be ruthless, and she held her head up and laughed at the radiant sky.
Yan Xi's smile lingered in the sky above Ziwei Palace, which seemed to be accusing and mocking.
Yan Xi was taken away by the guards, and the murderer of Xiang Guifei had been found, and the palace people of Ziwei Palace were acquitted.
The auspicious time was delayed, but Xiang Guifei was still buried, and it seemed that there was no delay.
――
After the burial of Concubine Xiang, the queen dragged her tired body back to Fengxia Palace, and she withdrew all the palace people, leaving only Father-in-law An by her side.
Father-in-law An seems to understand people's hearts very well, he saw that the queen didn't speak, he also accompanied him quietly, and never said anything inconsequential.
The queen supported her forehead with her hands, leaned over and lay on the soft couch, her phoenix eyes slightly closed, her eyebrows frowned, and she looked very uneasy and painful.
The whole hall was very quiet, and the faint breathing of the queen could be heard, and Grandpa An didn't dare to come out, just stood quietly, occasionally peeking at the exhausted queen.
For a long time, for a long time......
The queen with her eyes closed opened her eyes slightly, her bright eyes were a little lost, she looked at Grandpa An and asked sadly.
"Ande, do you think Imperial Doctor Yan can still save it?" On the surface, she was asking Father-in-law An, but in fact she was asking herself.
When Father-in-law An heard the queen's voice, he analyzed with the queen with a serious face.
"Queen Mother, you can't save it, but someone can."
The queen's eyes lit up and she asked in disbelief.
"You mean the eighth brother?"
Father-in-law An nodded heavily, his eyes showed a firm light, and he answered softly.
"Yes, sis. As long as the Eighth Prince is willing to save it, then Imperial Doctor Yan will be safe and sound. ”
The queen sat up from the soft couch slowly, her eyes showed a strange light, yes, as long as Taihong is willing to save it, then all troubles can be solved.
Thinking about it, the queen couldn't help but feel a little less worried in her heart, and she said cautiously to Gonggong An.
"Ande, you bring the palace handwritten edict to invite the eighth prince to come here."
"Yes, the minion obeys." Gonggong An's eyebrows showed a faint joy, and he replied repeatedly.
――
Mu Jingjie's accusation that Yan Xi was the murderer in the mourning hall spread all over the queen for a while, and everyone who heard the news was shocked.
Queen Mother, Princess Jing was just surprised by Mu Jingjie's change, why did Mu Jingjie, who used to be soft-hearted, become so insidious overnight?
They couldn't help but worry, so they sent people to find out what happened.
And Mu Chenjun, when Taihong heard this, he was furious in his heart, and they all asked Mu Jingjie for the first time.
Mu Jingjie, who was cultivating in Ninghe Palace, heard that the palace people reported to Mu Chenjun that Taihong wanted to see her, but she refused to see them one by one, telling them that she was not feeling well and did not want to see anyone.
Originally, she thought she could escape, but she thought it was too simple.
The palace people didn't think much about it when they went out, and there was an earth-shaking sound outside the dormitory where she lived.
"Whoever dares to stop this king, don't blame this king for being polite."
Tan Taihong started to beat the palace people, it seemed that he was about to break in, Mu Jingjie's eyes darkened, and the corners of her mouth were slightly hooked to reveal a sneer.
It seems that Yan Xi is indeed important to him, even more important than himself.
Thinking of this, her eyes couldn't help but burst into tears, she had reached this point, she could only face it, and there was no way to escape. (To be continued......)
