The news of the death of the second lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion spread all over the capital in one day, and on the night she was in the coffin, a shocking thing happened in the capital again.

Miss Bai of the Bai family experienced the pain of disfigurement during the day, and in her midnight sleep, a fire broke out in the room for no reason, but fortunately, when she was discovered, the fire did not spread, but only burned her room.

And the wound on her face, according to the Imperial Doctor, could have been slowly healed, but it was baked by the heat, and there was no possibility of recovery after the Imperial Doctor's diagnosis and treatment.

Overnight, this Miss Bai family, who was once the only one comparable to Murong Ling, completely became the first ugly girl in the capital, and hid in the room and never saw anyone again.

Early in the morning of the second day, Murong Yuan, the Duke of Fu Guo, personally gave the emperor a recital, saying that a servant of the Bai family saw Ouyang Junyu outside the Baishui Ning Gate on the night of the fire, and he personally set the fire.

Of all Murong Yuan's descendants, the most beloved ones were Murong Ling and Bai Shuining, and he asked the emperor to severely punish the son of the Ouyang family and seek justice for his granddaughter.

The hall is full of people, and the ministers are all there, if this matter is not investigated, it will definitely not work, and what kind of character is Ouyang Junyu, the emperor knows in his heart that he is very likely to do such a thing. He knew that this little boy liked Su Yi'er, but he didn't think that because of her death, he wouldn't care about anything and would offend the Bai family.

After Murong Yuanzheng finished speaking, a voice came from outside the main hall: "The criminal minister Ouyang Mu begged to see His Majesty, and His Majesty severely punished Xiao'er, and gave an explanation to the Murong family and the Bai family." ”

Following the prestige, it turned out to be the captain Ouyang Mu, who was still holding Ouyang Junyu in his hand, it looked like he had been beaten, and he was dragged by the two of them and slowly walked forward together.

The emperor knows that he is giving himself a step, but whether he can be punished or not, whether he is punished lightly or heavily, and how to punish him is still a big problem.

He rubbed his aching forehead and asked, "What does Aiqing mean by this?" ”

Ouyang Mu kicked Ouyang Junyu, and he slowly knelt on the ground, bowing his head and saying: "Your Majesty, this son of evil, broke into the Bai Mansion last night and burned Miss Bai's house. ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Murong Yuan, and then continued to speak: "The minister only begs Your Majesty to spare the child's life, the father has always loved this grandson the most, if he has any three strengths and two weaknesses, I am afraid that if he is the father, he will also follow." ”

After Murong Yuan heard what he said, he couldn't help but snort coldly and reprimanded: "Ouyang Mu! Where are you pleading, you are clearly telling Your Majesty that your delicate son cannot be punished or touched. ”

Ouyang Mu hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty forgives the sin, the minister has no such intention." ”

At this time, the emperor really didn't know how to decide, if such a thing happened, he must give an explanation to Fu Guogong and the Bai family, but this Ouyang family, no matter what, is easy to offend, not to mention, if he wants to personally issue an order to punish this nephew, not to mention that he is a little unbearable, the queen mother must be the first to not allow it.

The Queen Mother loved Anyang the most in the past, and Anyang got married, and after she gave birth to Ouyang Junyu, she transferred all her love to him, even more than those princes.

"Your Majesty, my Murong family is dedicated to the country, and has done their best to maintain the social peace of South Vietnam for many years, how can my granddaughter suffer this shame, and ask Your Majesty to be the master of the old minister." Murong Yuan is sincere, like an old man who is desperate for his granddaughter.

The emperor looked at the people in the court, and saw that they were all speechless, and his heart was also like a mirror.

In the entire South Vietnam, the most unoffended thing is the Ouyang family and the Murong family, not to mention that they are also involved in a Bai family, no one will stand up and speak at this moment, and this matter must be dealt with by him personally.

He hesitated for a while before he said slowly: "Since the Ouyang family has also admitted this matter, there is nothing to investigate, Ouyang Aiqing, as a father, is not strict in discipline, and it is difficult to escape the blame." ”

Ouyang Mu bowed his head again and said, "Your Majesty punishes the ministers, and the ministers are willing to accept the punishment." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a loud female voice came from outside the door: "Your Majesty, slow down." ”

Everyone looked at it, and it was Ouyang Mu's wife, the eldest princess of Anyang, she was dressed in purple clothes, extremely noble, and walked forward generously.

The emperor was stunned, "Anyang, why are you here?" ”

The eldest princess of Anyang waved her hand slightly, and then replied: "Your Majesty, Jun'er made a big mistake and has nothing to do with Lord Taiwei, he is dedicated to politics and has never put his mind on the child, all of this is the minister's sister and the son." If Your Majesty wants to punish him, please punish his ministers and sisters severely. ”

The emperor rubbed his aching forehead again, and said softly: "Anyang, you don't care about this matter, it has nothing to do with you, you step back first." ”

After hearing this, the eldest princess of Anyang knelt on the ground with her hands and pleaded again, "Please Your Majesty agree, punish the courtiers and sisters heavily, and atone for Jun'er, otherwise the courtiers will not be able to kneel for a long time." ”

After the queen and the emperor got married, Anyang never gave her any good looks, Murong Xue didn't like Anyang, Murong Yuan didn't like her even more, and now when she came out like this, a fire erupted in her heart again, and she snorted coldly again, "You people from the Ouyang family, are you singing in a group today?" Eldest Princess Anyang, do you think that the old minister, think that Your Majesty, can't help your son? ”

As he spoke, he looked at the emperor again, and continued: "Please Your Majesty be the master of the old ministers, the Son of Heaven is guilty of the same crime as the common people, Your Majesty cannot ignore what Ouyang Junyu did just because he has royal blood flowing in his body." ”

The emperor was still rubbing his forehead, and when he saw Ouyang Junyu who was only in a daze with his head down, he asked him: "Junyu, do you have anything to argue with last night's incident?" ”

Ouyang Junyu hadn't spoken since he entered the door, and when the emperor asked him personally, he still lowered his head and replied: "I did it, I haven't denied it." ”

Murong Yuan glanced at him, thinking secretly in his heart, he simply didn't admit it. But Ouyang Junyu's next words almost made him vomit blood with anger.

"But I'm not wrong, all this is Bai Shui's own fault, she relies on her family background and beauty, she has always liked to slander and bully people at will, and now she has returned to the capital, and framed Yi'er, and stimulated her to commit suicide by jumping into the lake, such a person, living in the world, is the shame of my South Vietnam, she is a scourge, I am, in the elimination of harm for South Vietnam. I didn't kill her, I was righteous. ”

Murong Yuan turned his head suddenly, staring at him with dead eyes, as if he wanted to strangle him to death, showing that he was angry by his words, it was his good granddaughter in the palm of his hand, he did not deny that Bai Shuining was shallow and flamboyant, relying on his family background and appearance, and did not take anyone in his eyes, but he Murong Yuan's granddaughter, only he himself could discipline him, and he would never allow others to say anything bad about her.

He pointed at Ouyang Junyu, word by word, sonorous and powerful, as if he wanted to reason with him: "When the matter comes, you are still so unrepentant, when it comes to relying on your family background and being frivolous, looking at the whole of South Vietnam, you Ouyang Junyu admit the second, who dares to admit the first?" When it comes to misconduct, who can compare to you? What is the enmity between my granddaughter and you, that you want to insult her like this? ”

He waved his hand at the person above again, "Please give an order to your Majesty to imprison Ouyang Junyu and deal with it according to my Nanyue law!" ”

"Who dare?" As soon as he finished speaking, a crisp and loud voice came from outside the door, and when he saw the man coming, everyone knelt down one after another: "See the Queen Mother." ”

The people in the court were so shocked that they didn't dare to say a word, what day is today, early in the morning, the two most valuable families in South Vietnam, the Ouyang family and the Murong family, there was such a big conflict, and the eldest princess of Anyang, who didn't like to see people, broke into the court alone without being summoned, and now the queen mother is also here.

The most surprising thing is that behind her, there is also Concubine Huixian.

Thinking that Ouyang Junyu has been so frivolous for many years, it seems that he has really been spoiled, and he is all protected by people.

"I've seen the queen mother. Why did the queen mother come? The emperor walked down slowly and greeted the visitor.

The Queen Mother glanced at him, pulled the kneeling Ouyang Junyu to stand up, pushed behind her, and said frankly: "The mourning family has nothing to do today, walked around the imperial garden, and happened to meet the concubine, I heard them say that Anyang has been feeling a little unwell recently, and I wanted to visit with her, but at the gate of the palace, I saw her walking into the court alone. ”

Before the emperor could speak, he heard Concubine Huixian pointing at Ouyang Junyu and exclaiming, "This Ouyang Gongzi, did he commit something?" How is it so embarrassing. I heard in this palace that there was a fire in Miss Bai's house yesterday, could it be that it has something to do with him? ”

Everyone was silent, not because they didn't want to speak, but because they didn't dare to speak at the moment, and if they didn't pay attention, they would offend people.

In the end, it was Murong Yuan who replied to her words: "The Queen Mother, the noble concubine, it is the son of the Ouyang family who broke into the White Mansion last night and burned down my niece's house." Queen Mother, please be the master of the minister. ”

"Your Majesty, Jun'er has had it, and he should indeed be punished, but he is still young and ignorant, if he wants to be punished, he should be severely punished for misdiscipline of him."

The corners of the emperor's mouth raised slightly, he had guessed the meaning of the queen mother's move, it was rare that she would have the same heart with Su Yujin, so he followed her and asked: "Then who does the queen mother think should be punished?" ”

The Queen Mother replied: "The son does not teach his parents, it stands to reason that he should punish Lord Taiwei and Anyang, but as we all know, Ouyang Taiwei has always only asked about the affairs of the court, and never paid attention to family affairs. ”

Murong Yuan knew that she would exonerate Ouyang Junyu, but he didn't want to be so indiscriminate, and he didn't care about the rules, so he hurriedly interrupted her: "Could it be that the Queen Mother is so partial and wants the emperor not to pursue this matter?" ”
