In the hall, the three of them quietly waited for Concubine Yao to arrive.

The emperor's face was dark, and he didn't know what he was thinking. The man on the earth who had made a false message trembled, fearing for his own life and that of his family.

Huo Lingxiao's face was gloomy, and seeing the emperor's attitude, he had no hope for the so-called interrogation results after Concubine Yao arrived.

In the emperor's opinion, it is obvious that he does not want to make a big deal about it, and the favorite concubine sent someone to falsely pass on the holy decree, which can really be called a royal scandal. Huo Lingxiao thought.

Sure enough, after the graceful arrival of Concubine Yao, the emperor's cold expression eased a little.

"See Your Majesty, I don't know why Your Majesty called your concubines to come?" Concubine Yao pinched her throat and said softly.

"You are guilty!" The emperor pretended to be majestic, but in fact, he motioned to Concubine Yao with his eyes and asked her to confess her guilt obediently.

Concubine Yao was surprised and denied it again and again, "This... The concubine is really wronged! ”

Unwilling to see the emperor and Yao Guifei playing Tai Chi here, Huo Lingxiao took a step forward and escorted the suspect to Yao Guifei.

"Niangniang, do you know this person?" Huo Lingxiao lowered his tone and looked at it with scrutiny, "As far as I know, this person's mother and wife are young, but they are all in the Zhuangzi of the mother's house." ”

Listening to Huo Lingxiao's meaningful words, under his gaze, Concubine Yao trembled unconsciously.

She sorted out her emotions, stabilized her mind, and pretended to look like Thurso, "Third Highness, I don't know what crime this person has committed?" ”

"Niangniang herself should know in her heart that the crime of falsely preaching the holy decree and murdering the prince is not known to be the right thing to do!" Huo Lingxiao snorted coldly.

"Ling Xiao!" The Emperor's voice recited above his head, "Don't be rude! ”

Seeing that at such a moment, the emperor was still supporting herself, Concubine Yao made up her mind in her heart, made a pitiful attitude, and sobbed: "The concubine will never dare!" Your Majesty, please be clear! ”

The emperor threw Huo Lingxiao's secret fold in front of Concubine Yao and ordered her to take a good look.

Yao Guifei picked it up gently, patted the non-existent dust on it gently, and held it very respectfully and began to read.

Seeing her actions, the emperor nodded secretly in his heart, and he couldn't help but be a little dissatisfied with Huo Lingxiao.

In the midst of that secret compromise, the evidence is conclusive, and Concubine Yao always has a thousand means, and she must not be able to use them. But for some reason, Huo Lingxiao was always a little uneasy in his heart.

Sure enough, after reading it, Concubine Yao fell to the ground softly, and at this moment, her personal maid rushed in.

"I beg Your Majesty to spare the mother! These are all done by slaves and maids, and they have nothing to do with the mother! As soon as the maid rushed in at the door, she knelt on the ground and kowtowed several times until her forehead was red.

Without waiting for the emperor to speak, Concubine Yao spoke.

"You... You! How so! Concubine Yao was heartbroken, she turned to face the emperor, and said angrily: "Your Majesty, there must be a secret in this matter, I implore Your Majesty to investigate thoroughly!" ”

Huo Lingxiao looked at the farce in front of him, his face was faint, and he sneered in his heart, sure enough, sure enough......

I didn't want the previous dynasty to know about the scandal in the harem, and the emperor didn't order the criminal department to investigate thoroughly, but he just asked the maid to be escorted to the Shen Criminal Division for torture, and fined Yao Guifei half a year of silver as a punishment.

Even though he had been prepared in his heart, seeing the emperor's such a light punishment, Huo Lingxiao was still extremely disappointed. When the once strong lion grows old and puts away his sharp fangs, will he still be able to lead the tribe to prosperity?

Back to Fuchu. Huo Lingshen looked earnest, expecting to get good news from the third brother. But looking at Huo Lingxiao's expression, the blood in his heart gradually cooled down.

"Isn't it... Isn't it—" His face was full of disbelief.

Huo Lingxiao couldn't bear to see him like this, and he didn't answer much, just sighed tiredly.

"How so!" Huo Lingshen took the case, "That woman has targeted the third brother again and again, and even tried in vain to take the third brother's life, how can my father be so mediocre!" ”

"Ling Shen said carefully!"

"Your Highness Eleventh is cautious!"

Two voices sounded one after the other, and Huo Lingshen slid down the chair weakly.

"Did you already know this was going to be the case?" he said softly.

Wei Xiyue stepped forward, patted Huo Lingshen's shoulder gently, and said comfortingly, "Your Highness, you have to get used to it." ”

Huo Lingshen was sullen, answered with a "hmm", and stopped talking. Seeing this, Wei Xiyue was worried about the Liu family and Wei Qinghe, and she didn't stay longer.

On the carriage back to the Wei Mansion, Huo Lingxiao saw Wei Xiyue's expression faint, and he felt pity in his heart.

"Xiyue, don't take this matter to heart, there will be a long time in the future." A look of uncertainty crossed his eyes, and he spoke lightly.

In the previous life, the emperor was also like this, no matter what, he unconditionally favored Concubine Yao, Wei Xiyue had long been used to it, but seeing Huo Lingxiao's gentle persuasion, she still felt warm in her heart.

"I had long expected this to be the case, and the third brother didn't have to worry."

"The college entrance exam is coming, after you return to the mansion, don't worry about it, I have something to do outside, you just have to review with peace of mind."

"Okay."

After Huo Lingxiao and Wei Xiyue left, Huo Lingshen thought about it repeatedly, but he was still angry, and impulsively, he hurriedly came to the Queen Mother's palace and told the Queen Mother what Concubine Yao had done.

The queen mother was shocked when she heard this, in the past, Concubine Yao was just making a small fuss in the harem, because of the emperor's affection, she was inconvenient to teach, who knew that Concubine Yao actually stretched out her hand to the court, and even did such a thing that shook the country.

"Presumptuous! Come on, bring me Concubine Yao! The Queen Mother was furious.

Seeing this, Huo Lingshen felt a little relieved in his heart, he took a step forward, helped his grandmother to sit down, squatted at the feet of the Queen Mother, and comforted him: "Grandmother is angry, don't be angry for irrelevant people." ”

"Good boy, good boy, you suffered." The Queen Mother raised her hand and touched Huo Lingshen's sideburns.

Hearing that Concubine Yao had arrived outside the hall, he stood up and smiled obediently, "As a foreign man, my grandson is afraid that it will be inconvenient to see Concubine Niangniang, so it is better to avoid the inner room first." ”

"Good boy, go ahead." Watching Huo Lingshen's figure disappear behind the screen, the smile on the Queen Mother's lips slowly receded, and her cloudy gaze revealed a hint of fierceness.

"Let her in." The Queen Mother spoke lightly.

"See the queen mother, the queen mother is blessed..."Before Concubine Yao finished speaking, she heard the queen mother drink: "Kneel there, reflect on it, think about it and get up again." ”

After saying that, he turned around and left, and didn't look at Concubine Yao again.

She knelt on the ground, secretly hating in her heart, waiting for her Ling Yu to ascend to the throne to see how to clean up these people.

"Hiss-" Long-term pampering, Concubine Yao has not knelt for so long, she calculated a little, I am afraid that in the next half an hour, the gold silk bluestone bricks of the Suzhou Imperial Kiln on the ground are cold to the bone, and there seems to be a small hook at the knee to hook her own flesh and bones.

Huo, Ling, Xiao, Concubine Yao silently recited this name in her heart, after the matter is completed, this palace will definitely not be able to spare you!

Huo Lingyu, who was far away outside the palace, heard the news from the spies in the palace, and his heart was in turmoil for a while, and he asked again and again, the plan was obviously so thorough, how could it still be discovered?

Worried that his mother would suffer in the palace, Huo Lingyu was going straight to prepare a car and rush to the palace and to the palace of Concubine Yao.

Seeing this, the spy saw that Huo Lingyu was so angry, worried that he would do something unwise under his anger, so he was so frightened that he slipped and knelt down, and grabbed Huo Lingyu's robe and feet.

"Fourth Highness, don't be so impulsive!"

Huo Lingyu's chest rose and fell, and his eyes widened angrily, "The concubine doesn't know what to suffer in the palace, you have to stay here with peace of mind!" I don't care about you! With that, he kicked the spy three feet away.

Ignoring the injuries on his body, the spy crawled up again, "Your Highness, Your Highness!" Listen to me! ”

Huo Lingxiao was tripped by him, and he was never able to get out of this door, but after he was extremely angry, he calmed down, "You say, what do you have to say!" ”

"Niangniang has been immersed in the palace for many years, and Your Majesty is favored, so she will definitely not lose her foundation because of this, and Your Majesty is only a small punishment and a big precept, Your Highness does not need to be so alarmed." He took a breath and continued, "Your Highness confronts the Third Highness when she enters the palace, why don't you stay outside the palace and carefully investigate what they have done, this can better help Niangniang!" ”

The spy's words were earnest and his tears were in tears, after all, Huo Lingyu calmed down a little, he calmed down and thought about it carefully, knowing that what the spy said was very true, so he couldn't help but nod his head and let the spy go down to receive the reward.

Concubine Yao knelt in the palace of the Queen Mother for two hours, and the Queen Mother only appeared once from beginning to end, but after she got up, she brought out words and did not let her take advantage of it.

With the help of the maid, Concubine Yao finally stood up, looking at the long palace road, the hatred in her heart was even worse, and with every step, the images of Huo Lingxiao and Wei Xiyue were stabbed in her heart.

Finally returned to the palace, the spy who had been sent out to the palace had been on standby for a long time, and she struggled to sit down and listen to the spy reply.

After the man retreated, the hall was empty, she waited for a while, saw that no one stepped forward to help, and shouted: "Xiao Cui! ”

There was still no answer for a long time, but a little palace maid timidly poked her head out and asked what Niangniang commanded?

By the way, Xiao Cui has been sent to the Shen Criminal Division. Xiao Cui, who grew up with himself since childhood, stepped forward at this critical juncture, and from now on, there will be no one to laugh and scold with him in this long night in this deep palace.

She came back to her senses and beckoned the little palace maid to step forward, "Help me to the bedroom." ”

Lying on the couch, she had the energy to review today's events, and for a moment, she stared at the Baizi grape tent above her head and spit out a name - Wei Xiyue.

"Someone." She raised her voice.

"Mother, the slave is here."

"Send a message to the Wei Mansion, asking the old woman to pay more attention to the relationship between Wei Xiyue and Huo Lingxiao."

After the palace maid retreated, her face was gloomy, and she stared at the curtain above her head, not knowing what she was thinking.
