Chapter 682: The Cuckold King

"Come on, go and call the imperial doctor, my father is sick again by the two princes." Seeing Emperor Xingwu sitting on the dragon chair in anger and panting heavily, Ye Qiu shouted loudly.

The ministers looked at him speechlessly while panicking, Fifth Prince, Your Majesty was obviously angry with you, okay? But if that's true, it's hard to say.

Soon the imperial doctor came, and at the same time there was a bowl of ginseng soup, thinking that this ginseng was still offered by Ye Qiujin, Emperor Xingwu angrily knocked over the bowl.

"Father, even if you are angry with the second brother of the crown prince, you can't abuse yourself." Ye Qiu admonished.

"Bastard thing." Emperor Xingwu picked up the things at hand and threw them at Ye Qiu, but he was very angry, he didn't have much strength, and he fell down halfway.

Ye Qiu seemed to be angry, and said aggrievedly: "Father, the second brother knows that you have always been partial to the second brother of the prince, I know, the second brother is the son-in-law and the prince, you should be partial to him, but the second brother of the prince bullied the wife of the minister, and sent someone to assassinate the son, father, can't the father and emperor give justice to the son?" ”

"Evil obstacle, who told you these faint words? Don't go back yet? Emperor Xingwu coughed heavily in annoyance.

"The sons have witnesses and physical evidence, even if they die and have no place to be buried, the sons have to ask for an explanation today, the father does not give the sons and daughters the masters, and the sons will ask the queen mother and the ministers to make a fair decision today." Ye Qiu stood up, and then said to the palace maid behind him, "You go to Changxin Palace to invite the queen." ”

"Not allowed." Emperor Xingwu shouted.

Ye Qiu turned his head and stared at him deadly: "Father, is this a weak heart?" Father, how long will you still be eccentric? After today, I will admit the crime of my father and the emperor for defrauding the king, anyway, I don't wear this green hat, go, invite the queen. ”

"Who dare? Someone came, the fifth prince went crazy and escorted him down. Emperor Xingwu looked at Ye Qiu's eyes, and there was already murderous intent.

A few ministers, you look at me and I look at you, they are all at a loss, and in the end, Prime Minister Shen Cheng stood up: "Fifth prince, Your Majesty is not feeling well today, you should go back to the house first." ”

Ye Qiu looked at him without showing weakness: "What?" Is the prime minister afraid that his good son-in-law will be guilty? Doesn't the prime minister want justice for his daughter? The real person in my good second brother's heart is my fifth princess, I don't know what the princess and sister-in-law will think after knowing about this? ”

"Everything is just what you said yourself, the fifth prince, Your Majesty has issued an order, please ask the fifth prince to return to the house." Prime Minister Shen still said with a straight look.

"Hey, Prime Minister Shen Cheng is wrong, Weichen thinks that since the matter has reached this point, it should be investigated, and now the rumors in the capital are also boiling, if it is false, the prince should also be given justice." General Xia said with a different view.

"This is exactly the case, if this matter is not investigated clearly, the stigma of the prince will still be there for a day, and it will not be good for the country and the people." The Ministry of Rites should be kind to the Tao, he is the person who pays the most attention to etiquette and fame in the Manchu Dynasty, if the prince is not stained, he should return the prince's innocence as soon as possible, if the matter is true, then such a virtuous prince is not worthy of being a king.

The rumors in the capital cannot be groundless, and the five princes claim that there are witnesses and physical evidence, but His Majesty does not let people check it, which makes people suspicious.

Thinking about the previous case of the five princes who were almost assassinated, as well as the abnormality of the day in the palace, it really makes people have to be suspicious.

"Lord Xia, Liang Shangshu, didn't you see that Your Majesty is unwell? Is it good to bother Your Majesty again in this situation? The lieutenant also stood up against it.

"Then ask the queen to come out and judge, and this king can also be a witness." The person who said this was an old prince, whose seniority was twice as high as that of Emperor Xingwu, and he was very prestigious in the court.

"Uncle Huang, even you ......" Emperor Xingwu sank his face.

"Your Majesty, don't blame the old minister for being rebellious, whether this matter is true or not, it should be investigated clearly now." The old prince said very fairly.

Emperor Xingwu saw that everyone except the crown prince looked like they were asking to find out the truth, and his fierce eyes immediately shot towards Ye Qiu, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, then according to what the ministers said, come here, go and invite the queen, and let her make a decision together." ”

Ye Qiu knelt down again under Emperor Xingwu's murderous gaze: "Son-in-law Xie Father." ”

Emperor Xingwu looked at this fifth son with burning eyes, as if he knew him for the first time, and a son who only knew how to make money and acted absurdly dared to threaten him?

Oh, he wants to see what tricks he can come up with today, the palace maids and eunuchs present that day have all been executed, and the remaining few women must not dare to talk nonsense, what other evidence is there?

Empress Liu soon came in surrounded by everyone and sat on the chair at the bottom left of the dragon chair, and the ministers also stood on both sides in order.

Seeing Emperor Xingwu's unhappy appearance, Empress Liu spoke: "Old Five, what is your appeal today?" Tell me more? ”

Ye Qiu knelt down, and his words were sincere and resentful: "The first son accused the second brother of the prince of cheating with his wife Lin Jingxian, and let their children occupy the position of my son-in-law, and the second accused the second brother of the prince and his wife Lin Jingxian of assassinating the son-in-law, and asked the father and queen mother to call the shots." ”

"Do you know that if you are not convicted of these two crimes, you will be held liable for disturbing the court and the cholera court? If you are not convicted, are you willing to be punished? Empress Liu asked again.

"The son has no regrets, only seeks justice." Ye Qiu kowtowed again, seeing that he was so resolute, the ministers present were actually biased towards him in their hearts.

"Okay, since you insist, do you have any evidence?"

"Son-in-law has." Ye Qiu raised his head, "The dragon and phoenix fetus born to Lin Jingxian is the biggest evidence, they are not the children of Erchen." ”

"Why do you say that?"

"Because Erchen has never touched Lin Jingxian's slut from beginning to end?"

"Since you haven't had sex with her, why didn't you say it when she was pregnant?"

"Because she misled her son, so that she thought that she had sex with her when she was drunk."

"Do you have proof?"

"Yes, her personal maid can testify, and so can her Yuanpa." When Ye Qiu said this, Lin Jingxian, who was covering her lips, raised her head violently, and then began to struggle violently.

"Someone is coming, and the personal maids and evidence of the five princesses will be presented." Empress Liu said with sharp eyes.

At this moment, the palace people came with the news that Lin Xueyuan wanted to see him, and Empress Liu also asked him to listen to it by the way.

"The slave and the maid Hibiscus meet the emperor and the queen." Hibiscus knelt tremblingly, with a frightened little face.

"This palace asks you, when the fifth prince and the fifth princess get married, do they have a real cave room?" As soon as Empress Liu asked, everyone stared at the hibiscus.

"Nope." She was so frightened that she lay down.

Hearing her answer, everyone was in an uproar on the spot.
