Chapter 240: Clearing Grievances
Although he received a summons from the emperor, Huo Lingxiao did not go out as soon as possible, he looked at Wei Xiyue, who was pale lying on the bed because of excessive blood loss, he was distressed, and he wanted to kill Huo Zeyu directly, but he still forcibly endured it, at this time, he must be calm, killing Huo Zeyu can only vent his anger for a while, but it will cause trouble for Wei Xiyue.
"Ruyu, have you found what I asked you to check?" Huo Lingxiao walked out of the door and asked with a cold face, Mo Ruyu arched his hand, "Master, I have found it all, and I can clear up my grievances for Miss Wei in front of the Holy Lord today." ”
"In that case, then we will enter the palace now for a while Huo Zeyu and the crown prince, hehe, the prince thinks that I don't know if I detain everything on Huo Zeyu, and I can't run away if I hurt Xiyue!" Huo Lingxiao's eyes showed a hint of murderous aura, and then he was ready to leave.
At this moment, Wei Xiyue suddenly appeared at the door of the room, she was holding on to the door frame a little weakly, but said firmly, "Huo Lingxiao, you take me into the palace together, I also want to confront a few of them face to face." It turned out that Wei Xiyue had just heard the emperor's summons, but she really didn't have the spirit just now and couldn't speak, so she finally got up and chased her out.
Huo Lingxiao turned his head to see that Wei Xiyue actually got up, and hurriedly stepped forward to support her, "Xiyue, why did you get up, you still have injuries on your body!" Beware of the wound opening again! You're really, why don't you care about your body so much! As he spoke, Huo Lingxiao's tone was a little rushed.
But Wei Xiyue suddenly felt warm in her heart, and even the wounds on her body didn't hurt anymore, because she could hear that Huo Lingxiao was concerned about it, she smiled, "I'm really fine, Ruyu's medical skills are very good, it's just scary to look at, and my injury can't be in vain, only crying children can eat candy, I have to go into the palace with you." ”
Huo Lingxiao had some hesitation, it wasn't that he couldn't understand Wei Xiyue's words, but he always felt that since he had a way to clear Wei Xiyue's grievances, he shouldn't let her suffer more, but Wei Xiyue was very persistent, "Huo Lingxiao, you saved me and helped me, I am grateful, but I also want to save myself, this happened to me, I can't let you be busy." ”
"Good! I'll take you! But you have to promise me that if you don't feel well, tell me at once, and I'll bring you back. Huo Lingxiao still agreed, because he knew that Wei Xiyue was stubborn, even if she didn't agree, she might have to sneak into the palace, and it would be even more troublesome when the time came.
Wei Xiyue put on the clothes she wore when she was tortured, discussed her rhetoric with Huo Lingxiao, and followed Huo Lingxiao into the palace, and when the emperor saw Huo Lingxiao helping Wei Xiyue, who was covered in blood, to come in, his heart couldn't help but tremble.
"This, why is Miss Wei so seriously injured? I brought it over without healing, come on, take Wei Xiyue down to heal. "The emperor is not the kind of cruel faint monarch, looking at this situation, how could he still let Wei Xiyue kneel here, and arrange for her to go down.
Huo Lingxiao breathed a sigh of relief, what he had imagined before was also like this, it was impossible for the emperor to watch Wei Xiyue kneeling covered in blood in this situation.
"Your Majesty, Miss Wei was injured by Huo Zeyu, after she was imprisoned, I had obviously told me not to use torture, but Huo Zeyu abused lynching, fortunately I went in time, otherwise Miss Wei would have either been beaten into a trick, or she would have died! Now they still dare to sue the wicked first, and Miss Wei knows that she will not have time to heal in the future, so she dragged the sick body forward. What Huo Lingxiao said is called a grievance.
The emperor heard that it was the hands of the four princes, and he was also depressed for a while, a good prince actually went to the prison to embarrass a weak woman, and before the conviction was decided, he had already begun to be punished, how could there be a little prince's bearing.
"Zeyu, how can you act so impulsively! Sentenced before trial, which master taught you the rules! "The emperor reprimanded Huo Zeyu, no matter what, one is to show his attitude and the other is to give face to Huo Lingxiao's son, how could the emperor not see that Huo Lingxiao has affection for that Wei Xiyue, although the two of them did not break it, but in the emperor's heart, if Huo Lingxiao opened his mouth, he would definitely be willing to give marriage.
But Huo Zeyu was scolded and quickly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, but he was very resentful in his heart, he glanced at the prince, obviously the prince sent him, why did he hold on to himself one by one, Huo Zeyu thought in his heart to poke all this, and simply pulled the prince into the water.
The crown prince saw the unwilling expression on Huo Zeyu's face, and was afraid that he would talk too much, so he immediately stepped forward and said: "Father, in fact, although the fourth brother did a little reckless in this matter, he did not wronged Wei Xiyue, I have evidence here to prove that Miss Wei is the one who poisoned her." As he spoke, he presented the evidence.
And Mo Ruyu also stepped forward under Huo Lingxiao's instruction, "Your Majesty, my master has also sent me to investigate for a long time, and I have also found out some things, it seems that it seems to be diametrically opposed to the results found out by the prince, I wonder if Your Majesty can take a look?" ”
The emperor knew that Mo Ruyu was under Huo Lingxiao's command, and now he jumped out and said that there was evidence, but he was just speaking for his son, so he raised his chin and motioned for the little eunuch to bring up the evidence he said. Guangxi
"Father, you can't listen to this Mo Ruyu's words, he is just quibbling for that Wei Xiyue, I have already found out the ironclad evidence, Wei Xiyue bribed the maid next to Wei Feiyu to poison her, if I hadn't saved her in time, Wei Feiyu would have been poisoned to death!" The prince was afraid that Huo Lingxiao would do something bad this time, so he hurriedly spoke in advance.
But Huo Lingxiao couldn't help it, he stood there straight, like a pine and cypress standing upright, and his body was full of anger and suppressed coldness, "Prince, the poison in Wei Feiyu is extremely rare, if Wei Xiyue is poisoned, how can she get the poison?" I have already searched the whole city, and no one can prove that Wei Xiyue has bought poison, but ......"
"On the contrary or what!" The crown prince blushed, and he already faintly felt that something bad was wrong in his heart, but he still roared in a bluff.
"Oh, on the contrary, half a month ago, an unknown little maid in your backyard bought this poison. If there is no connection between the two, I'm afraid no one believes it, right? Huo Lingxiao flicked his sleeves and no longer looked at the prince, but at the emperor, quietly waiting for his ruling.
His evidence is complete and there is no ambiguity, as long as the emperor does not intend to show favoritism, he will not pretend not to see it, of course, even if he pretends not to see it, Huo Lingxiao will not let Wei Xiyue suffer this injustice in vain.
The emperor listened to the dispute between the two sons below, and also looked at the so-called ironclad evidence presented by the two of them, in fact, he also knew that Wei Feiyu's poisoning was indeed inextricably linked to the prince's backyard, but the emperor also believed that it was definitely not the prince who did it.
But now, I can't slap the prince in the face in front of so many people, and in desperation, the emperor can only play a round, "Ahem, I have already read the evidence you have submitted, indeed, Miss Wei is innocent, as for whether this matter is really related to the prince, I will investigate the matter thoroughly later, in short, I will not really let the murderer go unpunished, Ling Xiao, you take Miss Wei back first." ”
Huo Lingxiao had already guessed that the emperor would be with the mud, but he didn't care now, as long as Wei Xiyue was fine, he took Wei Xiyue out of the inner room, and saw that she had changed the medicine all over her body, so he left without looking back.
The emperor looked at this son as if he was shaking his face, and he also knew that his behavior of not punishing the prince and Huo Zeyu in public made him unwilling, and he could only act as if he didn't see it.
After coming out of the palace, Huo Lingxiao personally sent Wei Xiyue back to the Wei Mansion, and on the way, Wei Xiyue said gratefully: "Ling Xiao, thank you for saving me and helping me find evidence, otherwise I may not have to suffer a lot." ”
Although Wei Xiyue herself is confident that you will clear your grievances, it is definitely not as fast as Huo Lingxiao's action, not to mention that she is against the prince and Huo Zeyu, this matter can end so quickly, the emperor is also looking at Huo Lingxiao's face, and Wei Xiyue also knows it in his heart.
"Between you and me, needless to say, I just want you not to suffer again in the future, this time, it's me who is not good." Huo Lingxiao only felt guilty, obviously she failed to protect Wei Xiyue, otherwise how could she be covered in injuries.
Before Wei Xiyue could say anything, the Wei Mansion arrived, and after arriving, Wei Xiyue's mother-in-law, Liu, saw that her daughter came back with an injury, and she was both happy and distressed, with red eyes, she didn't dare to reach out to touch her daughter, for fear of hurting her.
"Yue'er, you, are you okay? Does it hurt? It's all because my mother is not good, and she didn't protect you. If it weren't for Huo Lingxiao, the Liu family would definitely not be able to stop the tears, this injury was in the daughter's body and in the mother's heart, and Liu's heart was like a knife cut.
"Mother, I'm fine, Ruyu has already given me the elixir, and the imperial doctor in the palace has also seen it for me, I am just a skin injury, and it will be cured soon." Wei Xiyue hurriedly comforted her mother.
Liu wiped his tears, thanked Huo Lingxiao and them, and then went to prepare dinner and a change of clothes for his daughter, Mo Ruyu left the wound medicine and left with interest, and Huo Lingxiao comforted and accompanied Wei Xiyue until it was dark.
As soon as Huo Lingxiao left on the front foot, Liu Shi came over on the back foot, "Xiyue, you hurry up and drink the medicine, and then I will change the medicine for you." While giving Wei Xiyue the medicine, the Liu family asked tentatively: "This time thanks to the third prince, it's just that the third prince has an unusual attitude towards you, what do you think?" ”
