Chapter 976: Plead for a lenient dismissal
But if she loses the emperor's favor, now that the East Window incident has happened, I'm afraid that this time, she will not be so lucky.
At the moment, she can only make a desperate bet, hoping that the emperor can believe in her and protect her.
Bai Liyan forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, his favorite woman, he didn't expect that she would be involved in such a right and wrong, but whether it was the concubine in the harem who was restless and guarded, or the minister in the court deliberately planted it, this is not a trivial matter, and it must be investigated.
"A few Aiqing, can't you be dumb?"
Facing the wrath of the emperor above the high hall, several ministers were even more frightened and did not dare to speak nonsense.
Gu Qinghuan looked at those ministers, and he was also full of disdain.
Someone has a head, and they still have to hide behind as a shrinking turtle, which is really hateful.
"Your Majesty, Wechen ......"
Stammered, afraid to speak.
"Speak well!"
Bai Liyan was furious, and the atmosphere in the court fell into unprecedented solemnity.
"Your Majesty, the people have an idea, these ministers should have some concerns in their hearts, so they are spitting, it is better to summon the steward of their house and the little maid who guards the door to question, such as the Gao family's mansion, if there are night visitors visiting, the little guy guarding the door must be aware."
Gu Qinghuan doesn't want to drag on like this any longer, if he doesn't solve this matter today, I'm afraid that there will be many dreams at night, which will be even more unfavorable to Baili Jingxu.
When several ministers heard this, cold sweat broke out on their backs.
They didn't expect such a situation to happen today.
"Send an order to go down and bring in the housekeepers of these ministers in the court, as well as the guards at the door, and interrogate them properly."
Bai Liyan is now difficult to ride a tiger and has to continue to be tried.
Concubine Xue was so angry that her hands clenched into fists, did the emperor ignore her face, her life and death?
Needless to say, the prince's face was extremely embarrassed.
Everything is now quite unfavorable to the mother.
Gu Qinghuan stood up straight, and now everything was in her plan.
Because they were caught off guard, these ministers who came from the previous dynasty didn't have time to explain to the people in the palace before they went out, not to mention, even if they had an explanation, but the guards in the palace passed, and all kinds of coercion and temptation could pry open their mouths again.
The final review results that came back made Bai Liyan Thunder furious.
Because most of the guards confessed, there were indeed guests late last night, and they stayed in the house for some time.
When leaving, even their master personally sent it out.
Although these little men guarding the door don't know the specific identity of the person who came, they also know that they are either rich or noble, and they are big people that their masters must respect.
"Send a few cronies around the concubine over and ask them to identify and testify one by one."
By this time, Xue Fei already knew that she was finished.
Your Majesty's attitude is to thoroughly investigate to the end.
Baili Haolin was secretly anxious, but he couldn't do anything.
The final identification and testimony were obviously faster.
"Back to the emperor, the testimony has been completed."
At this point, the entire court fell into a deathly silence.
Since Bai Liyan ascended the throne, there has never been such a bad incident, even in the previous dynasty, there is no such example.
The concubines of the harem secretly colluded with the ministers of the previous dynasty and colluded with the ministers of the previous dynasty, which was really unbearable.
"Your Majesty, the people ask Your Majesty to be the master of Prince Rui! Prince Rui returned to the palace without permission, it was indeed a taboo, and it also broke the rules in the palace, but there was a reason for it, and there was a last resort, but this absolutely did not mean to rebel, and this point is also requested to be clearly observed by Your Majesty, and the people also implore Your Majesty to be light! ”
