On this day, the sun had just risen, and the officials who were qualified to wait for the early dynasty were already waiting outside the Taihe Gate, and the captain of the Luan Yiwei Guard, who was holding a clean whip, began to sound the whip inside the door.

The crisp whip sounded, and the officials above the fifth rank cautiously checked whether there was anything wrong with their bodies, and then walked in a hurry, and went up to the court under the guidance of the eunuch.

Gu Shangshu walked in front of Wenchen's team, frowning slightly, as if he was thinking about something.

Cao Guogong stood on the side of the generals, he was a nobleman, and he also walked in front.

This is the most solemn moment before the Shang Dynasty.

The whip is one of the manifestations of the absolute monarchy and authority in China's feudal era. There were two whips at each court meeting: first, when the emperor came out of the Zhonghe Hall and arrived at the Taiji Hall (Jinluan Palace), the Luan Yiwei officer shouted "Whip!" Then there were three strokes of the whip; Another time was after the ceremony, and three more net whips were sounded, and the emperor drove back to the palace before the ministers retreated.

At this time, all personnel should be extremely quiet, and there should be no other voice. The ministers were already about to go to the court, when they suddenly heard a voice outside shouting: "Wronged, wronged!" The minister's sister died unjustly! ”

Because of the solemnity of the audience, this voice was particularly miserable. The officials were all standing there, and no one dared to look back to see who was shouting. It's just that the one who can rush here and shout can't be ordinary people, he must be a high-ranking official.

"The surname is Xu! Murderer! You killed my sister! ”

The man pushed away the blocking lieutenant and rushed over directly, just rushing towards Cao Guogong opposite Gu Shangshu, Gu Shangshu fixed his eyes and found that this person was a little familiar. Cao Guogong Xu Yongchang was pushed to the ground before he could dodge, and the person pressed on Cao Guogong and beat him hard: "Your Xu family is the murderer!" Kill you! ”

Standing next to Cao Guogong was the current emperor's uncle Cheng Engong, who was a little stronger, and hurriedly stepped forward to pull the person who lay down on Cao Guogong's body, the person was full of tears, Cheng Engong couldn't help but shout after taking a closer look: "Xiao Zihui, why are you!" ”

This one who dared to offend Tianyan and fight in front of the court was Xiao Huifei's younger brother Xiao Zihui.

Concubine Xiao Hui was also born in a big family, and she was drafted into the palace with Queen Xu that year. I used to be very favored. gave birth to a son and three daughters, and the son was the later King of Qin. After the death of Empress Xu, there was a great call for the government and the opposition to appoint Concubine Xiao Hui as the queen, and at that time, the Xu family had sent another concubine into the palace to replace Empress Xu, but it turned out to be lukewarm and hung there. Very embarrassing. For this reason, the Xu family moved around. hopes to push the daughter of the Xu family to the position of queen. Later, Concubine Xiao Hui suddenly fell ill and died, and the concubine of the Xu family naturally sat on the throne of the queen, which is today's Empress Dowager Xu. When the Xu family and the Xiao family competed for the queen's seat. Chengen Gong Sun Yan's sister is just a small Cainu, and not favored, fortunately Sun Cainu has a good son is the current emperor, after ascending the throne, Sun Cainu has been dead for more than ten years, was posthumously named the Queen Mother, Sun Yan also got the title of Chengen Duke, and became the leader among relatives, at that time, the Xiao family because of Xiao Huifei's violent death, soon fell behind in the relatives, these years are gradually away from the circle of the powerful, it is Sun Yan who saw Xiao Zihui was obviously stunned, and shouted after tearing apart the two people: "Where are the guards!" ”

Sun Yan is the emperor's uncle, he can shout here, others don't dare.

At this time, the guards had already rushed over, and the two of them quickly set up Xiao Zihui.

"Xiao Zihui, what kind of crime should you be guilty of roaring at the court!" This was a serious misconduct in front of the king, so Gu Shangshu asked on the side.

Xiao Zihui, as the mother of King Qin, was implicated in King Qin's rebellion, and he has been in a slump for half a year, and no one expected him to appear here.

"Hmph, my sister was murdered by the Xu family, and I want to get justice for her."

Xiao Zihui glared at Cao Guogong and roared.

"Bold maniac, dare to roar here, what are the Janissaries doing?"

The person who walked over in a blue python robe was none other than King Ying, who was followed by Wang Heng and a team of forbidden troops.

"Your Highness, this person doesn't know what to say, and suddenly pounced."

Cao Guogong stood up with the help of Cheng'en Gong, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth with one hand.

"Yes, Your Highness, Xiao Zihui suddenly rushed over and knocked Cao Guogong down at once, regardless of Cao Guogong's affairs." Cheng Engong is an honest and responsible person, and he testified honestly on the side.

The civil and military officials also nodded: "Cheng Engong is right. ”

"Doesn't Cao Guogong think it's strange? Why did Xiao Zihui keep saying that your Xu family was plotting to kill Concubine Xiao Hui. ”

Wang Heng asked coldly on the side.

"Xiao Zihui is talking nonsense, can this be believed?" Cao Guogong couldn't help wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, glanced at Wang Heng and said, "Wang Dusi, you don't want to fake the public and help yourself, right?" ”

"I don't know what is public and what is private in Cao Guogong's heart? Wang Heng didn't understand, so he asked Cao Guogong to make it clear? ”

Wang Heng waved his hand, and the two forbidden soldiers stepped forward to set up Cao Guogong as well.

At this time, the great eunuch with the emperor's body shook the dust and stepped forward and asked, "What happened?" This is where you can make a loud noise? Hurry up and take it away. ”

"Father-in-law, look at this ......" Yu Shizhao pointed to the two people who were erected, one was Cao Guogong and the other was Xiao Hou, both of whom were nobles, and this was really not easy to deal with casually.

"What's wrong with you? Do you have to be noisy in the early morning? Come on, Banzai wants me to reply, I have to hurry up and reply, this person, just take it down first, and wait for Banzai to deal with it. ”

"Father-in-law, I am avenging my sister Concubine Xiao Hui, I know that ordinary people sue the royal court to roll the nail board, I have the determination to roll the nail board, I ask my father-in-law to tell long live, I am willing to roll the nail board to show my determination!"

Nail plates! He was willing to roll a nail board! The civil and military officials whispered, and someone muttered in private: "It seems that this thing is true, and the nail board is willing to do it." ”

"Yes, yes, Xiao Zihui used to be a gentleman, and now he is willing to roll the nail board for his sister's grievances, it's really unexpected, it seems that the Xu family really has a problem."

Although it was a whisper, I could still hear it clearly because of the silence around me.

Xiao Zihui heard everyone's sympathetic voice, and said loudly, "Ask long live to give my sister justice, my nephew is rebellious, but my sister is innocent, the Xu family dominates the harem, and it was not only my sister who was harmed back then, maybe, maybe the Empress Dowager Sun was killed by them, Cheng Engong, you never thought that your sister Empress Dowager Sun died of illness at a young age?" This is all a conspiracy of the Xu family! How many palace concubines did their Xu family murder back then! ”

After saying this, Cheng Engong was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly looked at Yu Shizhao, who scolded in a low voice: "Xiao Zihui, don't climb around." Yu Shizhao said that this sentence was obviously very unconfident,

When the father-in-law heard that the Empress Dowager Sun was involved, he shook off the dust and hurriedly went to the Jinluan Palace to find the emperor to restore his life.

Yu Shizhao pointed at these people and said to Wang Heng: "Be optimistic about them, I will also live the situation." ”

Wang Heng nodded, and Cao Guogong sneered: "Wang Dusi, you don't want to beat my daughter's idea." ”

Wang Heng pretended not to hear it, while Gu Shangshu looked at Cao Guogong and Xiao Zihui, and then at Wang Heng, thoughtful.

After a while, Yu Shizhao came over with the eunuch and said: "Long live, please go to the court, and at the same time bring Xiao Zihui in, and argue in front of hundreds of civil and military officials, Xiao Zihui, you can think about it, once it is a false accusation, just by shouting at the Taiji Palace, the crime is enough to kill the head." ”

"Since I, Xiao Zihui, dare to sue the royal court, I am not afraid of anything. I only hope that Dali Siqing will hear this case fairly. ”

Sun Zhengqing said on the side: "When has our Dali Temple been unjust? ”

"Hmph." Cao Guogong snorted angrily.

The corners of Wang Heng's mouth curled, "Are the two adults going up by themselves, or are you going to send you up?" (To be continued......)
