"I see that Chen Aiqing is also fascinated by this Lu Xuan, right?" The word "also" of Emperor Liang Qindi does not know who it implies.

But Chen Weizhi had no fear at all, and still insisted on his opinion calmly-

"His Majesty the ancestor had a female prime minister Lin Ying when he was there, assisting the king in peaceful and troubled times, and his virtue and talent were not inferior to men, and later women in the past dynasties were not allowed to be officials and not allowed to enter private schools, and the people had already complained, this time Lu Xuan's virtue and ability were obvious to the people of the world, if His Majesty was guilty only because of her status as a woman, it would be difficult to convince the public."

"Serve the crowd? This country is my country, and the people are my people, if I want to kill a Lu Xuan, can't I be the master? Emperor Liang Qin was disdainful and did not take Chen Weizhi's words seriously.

After a pause, Emperor Liang Qin immediately ordered: "Lu Xuan concealed his identity, deceived the king, and had bad intentions, and punished his nine clans according to the law, and executed immediately, and no one is allowed to intercede!" ”

Hearing this, the prince raised his lips and smiled, but Chen Weizhi stepped forward: "Lu Xuan's mother is a descendant of the clan, and thanks to the blessing of His Majesty the ancestor, no one is allowed to kill her." ”

"You!" Emperor Liang Qin was speechless for a while, although the face of the king was important, but it was even more inappropriate to disobey the ancestor emperor in front of so many people, and he couldn't help but fall into a tangle.

But before this headache passed, Gu Huanli also stood up: "Lu Xuan has repeatedly performed miraculous feats, he is the talent of the pillar of my dynasty, and the younger brother is willing to guarantee with his life, she has no dissent, and hopes that the imperial brother will be exempted from serious crimes." ”

These two successive objections really made Emperor Liang Qindi lose face, and he instantly stood up from the dragon chair excitedly: "You, are you going to rebel?" ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw four people walking in menacingly outside the Jinluan Palace, one of whom Lu Xuan was very familiar with.

"Cousin?" Lu Xuan couldn't help but be surprised, and he didn't know why Rong Li suddenly appeared here, it stands to reason that he should be far away in Dongyang at the moment.

The civil and military officials were even more at a loss, and it was not until the four of them walked in front of Emperor Liang Qin and each took out the family emblem that everyone suddenly realized.

"Isn't this the four great clans that His Majesty Ancestor has enshrined? It is rumored that they are all living in seclusion, why did they appear together in the court today? The ministers couldn't help but talk.

In the past, not to mention the patriarchs of the four major clans appeared together, even if it was difficult to see one of them, it was really a magnificent spectacle today.

The four major clans are the orders of the ancestor emperor, and most of them have the power related to the survival of the Liang State in their hands, so the emperors of all dynasties have paid great respect to them, and Emperor Liang Qin is naturally no exception.

As soon as he saw the patriarchs of the four major clans, Emperor Liang Qin immediately suppressed Fang Cai's anger, and instead greeted the four of them in an extremely gentle tone: "How could the four patriarchs come to the palace together today? ”

Hearing this, Rong Li, as a representative, immediately spoke: "Your Majesty, we have come to ask for my life, and I also ask Your Majesty to allow her to enter the court as a woman as an official, and at the same time open women to enter private schools and gain fame." ”

As soon as the words came out, all the civil and military officials were shocked, probably saying that women should not be allowed to gain fame and become officials in the court.

Emperor Liang Qin did not focus on this matter, and only said what should not be said with a grim face: "The four patriarchs personally came forward to ask for Lu Xuan's life, could it be that they were instructed by someone?" ”

When he said this, Emperor Liang Qin's gaze deliberately fell on Gu Huanli.

Rong Li didn't pay attention to it, and only gestured to the other three patriarchs to take out the token from his bosom together.

Seeing this, all the civil and military officials were dumbfounded: "This, isn't this the gold medal left by His Majesty the ancestor?" Legend has it that this gold medal was divided into four pieces and sent to the four major clans, and if one day the gold medals were combined into one, His Majesty would also respond to the request of the four major clans. ”

Even ordinary officials still understand the rules of this, and Emperor Liang Qin naturally will not be unaware.

"What do the four patriarchs mean by this, do you really want to exchange the only gift of the ancestors for a Lu Xuan?" Emperor Liang Qin couldn't believe it, in his opinion, Lu Xuan's life was not worth so much.

But he was extremely determined, and was questioned by Emperor Liang Qin, and he immediately leaned over with the three major clans to ask for his life-

"His Majesty the Ancestors gave us such power to protect the country, if Your Majesty kills loyal ministers, it will inevitably alienate the people, so that we will live up to the trust of His Majesty the ancestors." Lie so you go.

Although Emperor Liang Qin was dissatisfied with Lu Xuan's bullying of the monarch, no one could disobey the orders of the ancestor emperor, and now that the four major clans had taken out tokens in exchange, Emperor Liang Qin was not good at doing anything to Lu Xuan.

In desperation, he sighed: "That's it, since it is the ancestor's last order, Lu Xuan will be exempted from the death penalty and allowed to enter the court as an official, but the matter of opening a private school for women is very important, and it needs to be considered in the long run, so I won't talk about it for the time being." ”

In any case, Lu Xuan's life was saved, and there were so many arguments about the lies, and several people who were bent on closing Lu Xuan's door were all relieved.

But some people can easily be angry, hearing Emperor Liang Qin's treatment, the crown prince, who has been deployed for so long, couldn't bear it anymore, and immediately stood up against it:

"Father, what Lu Xuan committed was the crime of bullying the king, if she was forgiven only by the ancestor's last life of more than a hundred years, wouldn't the face of my father as the king of a country be lost?" 186 Chinese Network

The crown prince knew Emperor Liang Qin, and everything he said hit his sore spot.

But before Emperor Liang Qin could speak, Gu Huanli walked to the prince's side, only to see a meaningful smile on his face, and pondered for a moment before speaking: "Oh? According to the crown prince, the sin of deceitful kings cannot be forgiven no matter what? ”

The prince didn't know why, but he still nodded: "The crime of bullying the king is naturally unforgivable." ”

This answer was obviously in line with Gu Huanli's wishes, and he immediately raised his lips and smiled: "In this way, what is the intention of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to take advantage of the imperial court's handling of Lu Xuan's affairs to win over hundreds of officials and expand the power of the East Palace?" ”

Hearing this, the prince was suddenly shocked: how could he know about this? The main palace is very well disguised.

Seeing that the prince didn't speak for a long time, the eyes of the civil and military officials and Emperor Liang Qin also fell here, and Gu Huanli continued: "Does the prince think that this king is busy with the affairs of Chu Zhi Lu Xuan and has no intention of paying attention? ”

"You talk nonsense! When did Hongu win over whom? The prince denied it regardless of it.

Gu Huanli had already grasped the evidence, and then his eyes fell on the head of the cabinet who originally followed him: "Lord Wang said that what this king said is half a lie?" ”

Not to mention letting him say it, just Gu Huanli's eyes could directly scatter his burning soul, and the head of the cabinet hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down tremblingly towards Emperor Liang Qin:

"Your Majesty, the minister is loyal to His Majesty and has no intention of rebellion, the prince did make an appointment with the minister, but the minister did not agree to her any request, and asked Your Majesty to see it."

"What about Lord Li?" Gu Huanli set his eyes on another person.

Just like the cabinet leader just now, he begged Emperor Liang Qin for mercy without thinking about it: "Your Majesty is aware of it, and the minister has not agreed to any requests from the prince's concubine. ”

The two of them confessed their sins one after another, and Gu Huanli then returned his gaze to the prince: "What's the matter, do the rest of the people still want the king to find out one by one?" ”

The prince couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, and Emperor Liang Qin was even more angry, he had already protected the prince in front of the civil and military officials I don't know how many times, but I didn't expect that he not only didn't know how to restrain himself, but also intensified again and again.

This time, Emperor Liang Qin didn't want to protect this rebel anymore, and Emperor Liang Qin suddenly took the case: "Prince! Is what the fierce king said true? Are you really forming a party behind my back? ”

The prince hurriedly knelt on the ground: "Father and Emperor Mingjian, the sons have no dissenting intentions, all this, all this was done by that slut behind his back, and the sons and daughters don't know anything." ”

The prince was in a hurry and pushed all the evidence on Lu Qingmeng, and Lu Xuan, who was listening on the sidelines, was embarrassed, but he didn't expect Lu Qingmeng to go around in a big circle, and finally he was thrown out as a scapegoat by the person he took refuge in.

Such an explanation is naturally what Emperor Liang Qin is most willing to hear, after all, if this matter really spreads, it will be really bad for the face of the royal family, and after brewing for a while, Emperor Liang Qin reprimanded the crown prince:

"You are still the crown prince of the court, and you can't even manage a woman, and the prince's concubine is bewitching the lord, intending to cause trouble to the court and provoke the royal family, so he will be immediately escorted to the execution ground and executed!"

Such a decision undoubtedly made Lu Xuan breathe a sigh of relief, and the revenge she had pursued for two lifetimes was finally avenged today.

originally thought that today must be a dead end, but I didn't expect that he could change his life against the sky, not only saved himself, but also made good and evil finally rewarded, so that Lu Qingmeng got the punishment he deserved.

The court dispersed, and everyone came towards Lu Xuan, and the first thing that rushed to her was Rong Li, who had not been seen for a long time.

"Ah Xuan, how are you? How many days have you suffered? Rong Li asked as he looked Lu Xuan up and down.

Lu Xuan hurriedly shook his head: "I'm fine, thank you for saving me today." ”

This word of thanks was addressed to someone in the venue, especially the three clan patriarchs who had never met Lu Xuan.

But the three patriarchs did not respond to Lu Xuan, but turned to look at Gu Huanli: "I have completed the entrustment of His Royal Highness, and the affairs of the clan are busy, so I will not stay here for long, and I will retire first." ”

Seeing this scene, Lu Xuan couldn't help but be surprised, she originally thought that Rong Liao invited the other three clan patriarchs to join her as the head of the Dongyang Rong family, but she didn't expect that this matter was still Gu Huanli's credit.

But if you think about it, I'm afraid that the only one who can invite the four major clans to come forward together is Gu Huanli, Rong Li has just taken over the Dongyang Rong clan, so naturally he doesn't have such appeal.

Understanding the reason, Lu Xuan watched the three clan patriarchs leave, and turned to look at Chen Weizhi: "I also want to thank Lord Chen for interceding for Lu." ”

Chen Weizhi smiled helplessly when he heard this: "The person you should be most grateful for is not me, and I haven't done anything." ”

With that, Chen Weizhi turned around and left.
