Chapter 266: Please enter the urn
Xie Shiyun was still trying to save Xie Zhuo, but unexpectedly learned that Xie Zhuo suddenly confessed.
"Feiyu, is this true?" Xie Shiyun looked at her in disbelief, she really couldn't understand how Xie Zhuo could take the initiative to confess?
She still remembered that when she went to the prison, Xie Zhuo kept begging her, hoping that he would be released from prison safe and sound.
Unexpectedly, in just a few days, there was a big change in attitude.
"Subordinate, I only dared to tell you about this matter after careful inquiry." Fei Yu clasped his hands into fists and spoke to Xie Shiyun.
"As for the specific situation, my subordinates don't know for the time being."
"I have to go to the prison now."
The situation is urgent, and Xie Shiyun can no longer sit still. She dressed up in disguise and sneaked to the prison to learn more about the situation with Sun Zhao.
"I heard that Xie Zhuo has pleaded guilty, I wonder what has happened in the recent period?" As soon as Xie Shiyun and Sun Zhao met, they got straight to the point.
"In fact, the prince was forced to admit his guilt because he was helpless." Sun Zhao sighed faintly.
Although he was in prison, due to his position, he was unable to come forward to protect Xie Zhuo.
I could only watch him being beaten and standing aside and unable to do anything.
"What do you mean by that?"
Xie Shiyun could vaguely feel that this matter was inseparable from Ning Anhou.
Sun Zhao's vigilant eyes scanned the surroundings, and when he saw that there were no suspicious characters, he whispered to Xie Shiyun about the reason.
"I heard that Ning Anhou was kind to the Ministry of Punishment. Because of this level, Shangshu of the Criminal Department had to torture Xie Zhuo under the instruction of Ning Anhou. It can be said that the prince is a trick. ”
Xie Shiyun was so angry that she gritted her teeth and secretly scolded Ning Anhou for being despicable.
Her original plan was to try her best to exonerate Xie Zhuo. At present, Ning Anhou has been killed, and all his efforts have come to naught.
"Thank you for giving me this information." Xie Shiyun did not forget to stuff a certain amount of gold into Sun Zhao's palm.
As an intelligence provider, she will still give the remuneration she deserves.
"Thank you, princess." As soon as Sun Zhao saw the money, his eyes lit up, and he subconsciously put the gold to his mouth and bit it.
"If something happens, I'll come to you."
While no one had discovered her existence, Xie Shiyun hurriedly left the prison.
The news of Xie Zhuo's voluntary confession soon reached the ears of Emperor An He.
He was sitting in the imperial study to review the recitals, and when he heard this, he covered his head with a headache.
"This son who is not angry will only make trouble for himself all day long!" He slammed the table in anger, his face flushed.
"Your Majesty, what now?" The eunuch, kneeling in front of him, asked cautiously.
What to do? What else can I do?
If he hadn't been convicted yet, he would have wanted to find an excuse to get rid of it.
But now, Xie Zhuo has blocked his back road. Even if he tried to help, it would be useless.
He knew very well that other princes wished that Xie Zhuo would be beheaded, so that there would be one less competitor.
Although everyone is of royal blood, we should cherish the brotherhood. But who doesn't want to sit on his dragon chair, especially ambitious people, don't care about family affection at all.
"Hurry up and find Shiyun, I have something to discuss with her."
Now, Emperor An He plans to pin all his hopes on Xie Shiyun.
Perhaps, she can think of some ways to save Xie Zhuo.
Coincidentally, Xie Shiyun planned to go to the imperial study to face the saint. As soon as he walked to the courtyard, he was led into the door by a eunuch who came in a hurry.
"Father." Xie Shiyun saluted respectfully, subconsciously observing the expression on Emperor An He's face.
Xie Zhuo pleaded guilty, it stands to reason that Emperor An He should know about this at this time.
"Shiyun, Zhuo'er now confesses her sins, your name is me, what should I do?"
As the king of a country, he simply could not protect his son in such a situation.
Even if he wanted to save it, there had to be a reason.
"Father, the child understands your eagerness. When things got to this point, the only way was to remove Xie Zhuo from the position of prince and become a commoner. In this way, at least his life was saved. ”
The status is gone, and you can make a comeback. If you lose your life, you will definitely end up with nothing.
An He Di thought about it carefully and felt that what Xie Shiyun said made sense.
In any case, saving Zhuo'er's life is already benevolent and righteous.
Although the two of them discussed and came to a certain conclusion, they were not in a hurry to announce the verdict.
Emperor An He wanted to wait and see the changes first, for fear that there would be extraneous branches.
That night, the palace seemed to be calm as usual, but in fact it was turbulent.
Concubine De wanted to discuss with Emperor An because of Xie Zhuo's matter.
She had already figured out that no matter what the cost, she would keep her son.
"Niangniang is not good, I heard that the prince has escaped from prison. Your Majesty has already received the news, and at this time he is sending someone to rush to the prison. ”
Concubine De's complexion changed slightly, but she didn't expect one wave to be unsettled, and another wave to rise.
"Let's go, let's go and have a look." She had a vague bad premonition, and hurriedly pulled the personal palace maid to find Emperor An He.
The people sent by Emperor An He soon sent back the news, and when he learned that this was the case, he was furious and asked people to quickly bring back the people who had been caught.
He tried his best to save Xie Zhuo, but he didn't expect that this son would only cause trouble for him, and he wouldn't leave himself a way to live.
"Your Majesty, my subordinates have crawled and caught someone and brought them back."
Two guards detained two men and appeared in the imperial study.
An and Emperor Dingqing took a look and found that it was the Duke of Qi.
The other young man, at first glance, bears a resemblance to Xie Zhuo.
The light in the prison is dim, and in the face of such a similar person, if it is a person guarding the prison, if one is not careful, it is very likely that he will be deceived in the past.
"Qi Guogong, Qi Guogong. You're so bold! Emperor An He raised his trembling right hand, pointed at Qi Guogong's nose, and couldn't help but curse.
I really thought that the prison was a place where you could come and go whenever you wanted!
Where to put the royal majesty? Where to put his face?
As soon as Emperor An He became angry, the scene fell silent.
The depressing atmosphere made the palace maids and eunuchs guarding the door so frightened that they didn't dare to come out.
From time to time, they used their spare eyes to observe Emperor Anhe's face, and secretly prayed in their hearts that they would not become cushions.
Concubine Shu, who was hiding in the shadows, looked at the situation in front of her, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly.
Sure enough, the emperor lived up to his wishes, he just "reminded" Emperor An He a little, and the battle in front of him seemed to be bigger than she expected.
"You're doing a good job." She casually took off the jade hairpin on her head and threw it into the hands of the palace maid standing beside her: "This thing is yours." ”
The palace maid hurriedly thanked her, and held the jade hairpin excitedly, and she couldn't say anything.
You must know that taking this kind of thing to a pawnshop is enough for her to spend years.
