Chapter 211: Imperial Petition
"Bold!" Father-in-law Hao looked at the woman without any remorse, and he was still in such a tone to the emperor, and immediately reprimanded angrily.
The woman laughed at the moment, not arrogant, but desolate.
"Hahahaha, hahaha..."
The woman's voice resounded throughout the hall, and no one else knew why the woman looked like this.
But among them, Ren Qixiu, who was really injured, was a little flustered at the moment, what did the woman's words mean, Ren Qixiu suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart, and wanted to stop the woman from continuing to speak, but the emperor also noticed the meaning of the woman's words.
When he just wanted to speak, he was robbed of the conversation by Father-in-law Hao, but now, the emperor can finally ask about the confusion in his heart.
"What do you mean by that?"
Seeing that the emperor calmed down, but asked the meaning of the woman's words, Ren Qixiu wanted to block in front of him, and subconsciously didn't want the woman to speak.
But Cheng Rang just spoke at this time, he didn't speak in the corner, and now he suddenly spoke, making Ren Qixiu's eyes dark, Cheng Rang, will not speak for him.
Really.
"Father, according to what Erchen has seen, this woman is only afraid that there is something else hidden, and the father might as well find out clearly, maybe, he can find out something deeper."
Cheng Rang's words were approved by the emperor.
"That's what I thought, too."
The emperor looked at Ren Qixiu's gaze like a torch:
"Third child, don't you want to know why this woman did this?"
Ren Qixiu's answer in his heart was naturally that he didn't want to, but at this moment, everyone was looking at him, and he had no way to say these two words, so he had to nod heavily:
"Erchen also wants to know why he suddenly assassinated."
Ren Qixiu's words seemed to be a promise that the emperor and others could start to ask the woman seriously.
The woman just laughed out of tears, and when she heard Ren Qixiu's words at this moment, her eyes suddenly looked at Ren Qixiu, and the guards on both sides were startled, just now the woman's actions seemed to be taking the initiative to die, since the emperor wanted to save this woman's life, they naturally didn't dare to do such a thing, so they had to retreat one after another, which could be regarded as leaving a glimmer of life for the woman.
"Back to the emperor, my name is Hu Pei." At this moment, the woman solemnly bowed to the emperor, and the guard's sword had been put down.
The playfulness in everyone's eyes at the moment is even heavier, and it seems that this woman is not a traitor.
So what is the reason why she found Qi Xiu.
"The little woman and her family did not intend to destroy the stability of Dayou and Nanzhou." Hu Pei straightened his rocker at this moment and looked at the emperor, his eyes full of helplessness and weakness.
Since Hu Pei can perform in front of the emperor, he thinks that this posture is not bad, and now he is crying like this, which is a little sympathetic.
"Tell me about you, and we will do justice for you." Li Nian looked at Hu Pei who was obviously about to sue the emperor, and the object was Ren Qixiu, so he was naturally very happy and took the initiative to say to Hu Pei.
"Thank you, Queen." It's another big gift, it turns out that Hu Pei is really a person who knows etiquette.
Everyone's eyes turned to Ren Qixiu's body again, it seems that this Prince Ning is only afraid of trouble today.
Although it is not common to sue the royal court, when did it not give the victim justice?
What's more, now that there are Princess Xueli and Prince Yisu here, the emperor can't just prevaricate for the sake of Nanzhou's face.
Hu Pei's hand pointed at Ren Qixiu:
"What the people want to sue, Prince Ning is extremely cruel and kills innocents indiscriminately!"
As soon as this sentence came out, everyone present was in an uproar.
Behind this is the means, everyone has a little bit in their hearts, but now that it has been put on the bright side on such an occasion, it seems that Ren Qixiu is really a little difficult to step down.
"Ridiculous!" Ren Qixiu was naturally in a hurry to deny it at this time, if he didn't speak in time, he was afraid that the emperor would think that he was acquiescing, although Ren Qixiu was not sure about what Hu Pei said in his heart, but now, he had to refuse neatly.
"Prince Ning is really good acting." Hu Pei looked at Ren Qixiu at this moment and said:
"How did my brother die tragically, Chinese New Year's Eve, do you think I will forget!"
It seems that Hu Pei's brother's death is related to Ren Qixiu.
"Your brother?" Li Nian asked at this time.
Hu Pei turned to Li Nian and said:
"Returning to the queen's mother, the folk girl has been dependent on her brother since she was a child."
"My brother was originally a member of the dart game, and later because of his outstanding skills, he was favored by Prince Ning and became Prince Ning's person."
Reaching out to be outstanding, so he was favored by the prince, the meaning of this sentence is self-evident.
Although this is a very obvious thing in every prince's mansion, being said directly to the emperor like this will inevitably make the emperor a little unable to step down.
Besides, not long ago, it was precisely because Ren Qixiu was a little too arrogant that the emperor would think about frustrating Ren Qixiu's sharpness and promoted Ren Chenlin, after all, compared to everyone, Ren Chenlin is really clean.
"Don't spew blood!" The panic in Ren Qixiu's heart was a little obvious on his face, and he clasped his fists at the emperor and saluted:
"Back to my father, my son saw that the woman looked like a snake and scorpion, and he was not a good person, he was able to assassinate in front of the emperor, and his father must not believe what this woman said!"
The emperor raised his hand, his eyes did not look at Ren Qizhi, but said to Hu Pei:
"You go on."
Hu Pei glared at Ren Qixiu again, turned to the emperor and said:
"Yesterday, my brother told me that he was going to perform a mission for Prince Ning, so that he could come back to celebrate the New Year with me, but last night, the people's girls kept vigil all night, and they couldn't see my brother when it was full of wind and snow."
Hupe said, and began to sobble again:
"Early this morning, I found my brother's body in the yard."
Although this matter has nothing to do with the emperor, the words of yesterday's mission can't help but make people think of other things.
"You say!" Now it is not the emperor who is a little impatient, but Yi Su, who is clenching his fists tightly at the moment, and Xueli, who has a cold face, what he can let Ren Qixiu send someone to do yesterday, and now everyone knows how much in their hearts.
The emperor felt even more embarrassed on his face, just now Ren Qixiu jumped out and explained quickly, but now that he said this, Ren Qixiu did not continue to speak.
"You say." Hu Pei got the emperor's promise before he dared to continue to speak.
"The folk girl thought that her brother had encountered the enemy on the way back, so she thought it was fate, but when the folk girl went to find her brother's friend to deal with the aftermath, the man avoided it."
"It's all Prince Ning's people, and in the end, that person only threw a silver ingot to the people's daughter, and a kind uncle told the people's daughter, brother..."
"Brother, why was he killed by the enemy, he was obviously killed by Prince Ning!"
After that, Hu Pei also took out the ingot of official silver from his arms, and the seal of Prince Ning's mansion could not be denied.
However, this incident does not seem to be enough evidence, but what Hu Pei said next made others have to believe it:
"My brother's corpse is still listening in the courtyard, and the uncle told the people that it was the hand of the brother's friend, if the emperor doesn't believe it, he can ask someone to check whether the wound on his brother's body was stabbed by Prince Ning's mansion!"
Hu Pei pointed at Ren Qixiu and continued to complain:
"My brother did his best for Prince Ning, but Prince Ning, just because my brother failed to kill Princess Xueli yesterday, did he kill his brother like this!"
This scene came suddenly, as for yesterday's incident, when someone was still being sent to investigate, the murderer took the initiative to send it to the door, which was really a bit of a surprise.
But Ren Qixiu's face has been a little unpleasant from just now to now, the emperor understands his temper, and what Hu Pei said should be eight or nine without leaving ten.
"Huh!" There was another sound of a sword coming out of its sheath.
Yi Su was furious at this moment, pulled out the saber worn by the guards in the back row, walked through the crowd, pointed at Hu Pei and said:
"It's your brother, who was going to murder my princess yesterday?"
Hu Pei closed his eyes and kowtowed three times to Yisu:
"What my brother did, although it was involuntary, came from him after all, and he was willing to atone for his brother's sins."
With that, Hupe closed his eyes.
"Me!" Yisu really seemed to lose his mind because of anger, and he was about to make a move, but Xueli stopped him.
"Yisu!" Xueli's tone at the moment was not flat, but a little mixed with faint anger.
Hearing Xueli's words, Yi Su stopped his hand embarrassedly.
Hu Pei felt a murderous aura pass by him, but what he expected did not happen.
Yi Su threw the sword at Hu Pei's side, turned around and turned back, the whole time, without looking at Ren Qi Xiu.
Xueli looked very calm at the moment, and after stopping Yisu, he even said to the emperor:
"Now that the truth of the matter has come out, please ask Nanzhou to give Dayou an explanation."
Xueli's words were different from the mildness of the previous days, and obviously, she was also a little angry.
"It's nature." The emperor didn't expect that there would be such a scandal, and with so many people at the moment, it is obviously impossible to keep his mouth shut, so he must give everyone an explanation as he said.
"Father, I didn't!" Ren Qixiu was like waking up from a big dream at this time, knelt down directly, and said bitterly to the emperor:
"If it's a silver ingot, a wound can explain something, the son is really wishing, father!" At this time, Ren Qixiu remembered to defend himself.
If it was just now, from the time Hu Pei began to speak, Ren Qixiu would have been able to gain the emperor's trust, and he would definitely not be surrounded by everyone's eyes like now.
Although Ren Tingyou didn't understand where this Hu Pei came from and disrupted his plan, but now seeing Ren Qixiu deflated, Ren Tingyou was also very happy.
"You explain?" The emperor's eyes were already full of alienation when he looked at Ren Qixiu at this moment.
Whether the emperor believes it or not, since Princess Xueli and Prince Yisu believe it, then this matter is the truth.
The emperor couldn't erase the thoughts in their minds, and now, he could only send Ren Qixiu out.
"When I was just like that, I didn't see Prince Ning come out to explain half a point."
The emperor has some hatred that iron is not steel, Ren Qixiu gave him a problem, and no matter what, Nanzhou's face today is a big loss.
"Why don't you go to the prison and explain to me well!"
The emperor has not rashly sentenced Ren Qixiu to death, but it is about the same.
It's just to give Ren Qixiu some more time to survive in the world.
"Father, son-in-law doesn't!" Ren Qixiu was really anxious now, and wanted to speak, but there was no chance for someone to come, and he wanted to drag Ren Qixiu down.
Although Ren Qixiu still wanted to say something, no one was willing to continue listening.
Yisu's face was still dissatisfied:
"Please also ask the Emperor of Nanzhou to give a final reason as soon as possible."
