Chapter 223: Engagement

Above the main hall, hundreds of officials make a pilgrimage.

Qi Yuan generally rarely organizes people to go to the early court immediately, firstly, he has no intention of seeing those mediocre ministers pretend to be smart, and secondly, there is nothing special, and generally few people will report in the early dynasty, but if there is any urgent matter, he will go to his residence East Palace to meet him.

But this time, Qi Yuan had something important to announce.

"Father-in-law Su, are you here?" Qi Yuan raised his eyes, half-leaning on the dragon chair, Xue Tan couldn't help laughing, how could a dignified monarch of a country, look like he was in the place of flowers and willows, casual and lazy.

And several ministers were also whispering below.

"Prince, this is ...... Tired last night? Why did you fall asleep on the dragon chair? ”

Xue Tan looked at the source of the voice, thinking to himself who was so bold, just say it in private, and dare to ask.

Sure enough, it was him.

Xue Tan frowned, although he had never been interested in court battles, but the person in front of him could be unfavorable to Yin Qingqi at any time, which also made Xue Tan gradually notice this sixth elder brother who was in a high position.

The sixth elder brother still looked so cold, and he didn't look at Qi Yuan, but looked like he was doing nothing, but it was like the words came out of someone else's mouth.

"What? Sixth brother has some questions about my whereabouts? Qi Yuan wasn't angry, he had just come to his senses, and he didn't have time to argue with him here.

"Father-in-law Su-"

"The old slave is here." Gonggong Su stood aside and bent over.

"Tell him what I did last night."

"Yes." Gonggong Su respectfully promised, "The prince approved this overnight last night, naturally it was very hard, the old slave saw it in his eyes, the prince was sympathetic to his subjects, and he never closed his eyes all night, which is really merciful." ”

"yes, yes."

The group of people below was also making a noise, constantly saying flattering words.

Only Xue Tan and Sixth Elder Brother disagreed.

Xue Tan was because there was nothing to do last night, and when he walked around the palace, he obviously saw Qi Yuan who was coming out of the East Palace and going to Qingmu Palace, thinking that the prince must be going to sleep in Qingmu Palace this night, so he shook his head and went to Jinghong Hall alone to eat and drink.

But after late at night last night, Qi Yuan left Qingmu Palace alone and went out of the palace.

And the sixth elder brother just smiled contemptuously, "Heh, so many people played, I don't know what happened recently?" How did I not know? ”

The sixth elder brother looked around, and the ministers who were swept all lowered their heads, not daring to speak.

"You don't know, it's nature." Qi Yuan rubbed his forehead, he talked with Chang Lei outside the palace all night last night, and now he is still a little sleepy.

"After all, you are not the crown prince, and the emperor has entrusted this important task to me, so I naturally have to deal with it well, and ......"

Qi Yuan's eyes were quietly dark, staring at all the civil and military officials present.

"Something big has happened."

Sixth Elder Brother's pupils shrank, he knew what Qi Yuan was going to announce.

"Yesterday, Concubine Liang finally admitted the crime she had committed, deceived the saint, and rebelled." Qi Yuan's voice was not loud, but it exploded in the crowd like thunder.

"What?"

"How could such a thing happen?"

"I can't imagine that Concubine Niangniang, who is quiet on weekdays, and doesn't fight with others, would do this kind of thing."

"There will be no mistake, it is said that the people in the harem such as Concubine Shuniang were also present at that time, and she admitted it herself."

The sixth elder brother looked at him coldly, and the words in his ears were noisy like flying insects.

"That's enough." Qi Yuan sneered, it seems that the effect is good, and the sixth elder brother's face is very unsightly.

"Concubine Shuniang was also present at the time, oh, by the way, Sixth Elder Brother, you are also there, right?" Qi Yuan deliberately directed his gaze to the sixth elder brother.

"Why is the sixth elder brother there, what is he doing in the harem?"

"Don't say it, don't say it."

……

"Concubine Liang, first, she deceived the saint, wanted to hide from the world, and she had already committed the crime of deceiving the king, and secondly, ......" Qi Yuan paused, "It is to cooperate with the former crown princess, deceive the superiors and subordinates, and murder others, the crime is unforgivable, and also create a false image and bewitch the public, so as to damage the reputation of others, clear their suspicions, and excuse themselves." ”

"Therefore, the head of the concubine was hung on the north gate of the city and hung for three days to shock the majesty and justice of the imperial court."

"I have condemned the good concubine to warn everyone that if there is a next time, it will end up like her."

After Qi Yuan finished speaking, he coldly glanced at the officials of the Manchu Dynasty, although the chaos was disorderly, but this was the result that Qi Yuan wanted.

"Well done." The sixth elder brother took his head and clapped his hands, "The prince is really majestic, and he convicted her casually, I don't know what happened back then, but there is evidence that this matter is related to Concubine Liangniang?" Or is it that the prince has been bewitched by some women, who is bewitching the public? ”

"Presumptuous." Gonggong Su blocked the exit, "Sixth elder brother, the old slave reminds you that the emperor is not here, and the words of the prince represent the emperor." ”

"Oh?" The sixth elder brother glanced at his father-in-law with interest, "You are a father-in-law, what identity do you use to talk to me like this?" ”

"This is the right given to him by the emperor." Qi Yuan glanced at Father-in-law Su and laughed without a trace, "But Father-in-law Su, it is indeed a bit rude to speak to Brother Su like this." ”

"The old slave knows his mistakes, please forgive the sixth elder brother."

"Excuse me." The sixth elder brother doesn't seem to want to delve into this matter, after all, Father-in-law Su is the emperor's bodymate, and he has a falling out with him, and no one can hang on his face.

"But the prince, what about the evidence?"

"Evidence?" Qi Yuan slapped a blood letter on the table, "This is the evidence, the suicide note written by Concubine Liang herself, and also, do you want me to invite Concubine Shu Niangniang over?" ”

"No need." The sixth elder brother stared at the blood letter, "I also ask Gonggong Su to read it to the ministers." ”

What the sixth elder brother needs to confirm is whether Concubine Liang added anything later.

"Prince?" Gonggong Su asked Qi Yuan for instructions, and when he saw him nodding, he stepped forward to pick up the blood book and read it out word by word.

Sixth Elder Brother's satisfied expression failed to escape Qi Yuan's eyes.

It seems that he is still very cautious, and he does not even believe in his lover. Qi Yuan snorted coldly, "What, Sixth Elder Brother, this time, 'rest assured'?" ”

"The prince's discernment is a blessing for the people today." The sixth elder brother said lukewarmly.

"Okay, then I'll announce one more thing."

Xue Tan's pupils contracted extremely, clutching the corners of his clothes tightly, could it be?

"The truth about Xi Yue has been revealed, and in a month, I will marry Yin Qingqi, that is to say, Yin Qingqi will be the crown princess today, and when I see her in the future, I must see her as if I was myself, and her words are my words."

"Did you hear it all?" Qi Yuan was unusual, and a majestic and murderous aura was revealed with him, which made people tremble.

Xue Tan stumbled two steps and almost fell, Qi Yuan glanced at it lightly, pretended not to know, and moved his gaze away.

"Your Ministers obey."

When the ministers bowed down, Qi Yuan's heart finally calmed down.

Yin Qingqi, what I promised you, I finally did it.
