Chapter 55: Frame-up
Xie Bi'an held back a thin anger on his face, he stood with the eldest princess, his upright face and beautiful facial features still maintained the handsomeness of his youth, the lord of Ling'an looked like Xiao's mother, and his personality was also very similar to that of the eldest princess when she was young, so she was favored by the eldest princess on weekdays, so she was used to being arrogant and domineering, and in the absence of conclusive evidence, even the girls of the Guogong Mansion dared to accuse casually.
Let's not talk about whether the fourth prince was injured by the girl of the Guogong Mansion, but her accusation, the friendship between the two families has been broken since then.
Concubine De softened her body when she cried, and when she heard the words, her eyes immediately turned red with anger, her body trembled, and she broke away from the palace people who were supporting her, and she was about to go up and tear Sheng Mingzhu.
"You return my emperor's life, if my emperor has three long and two short, that is, you have the protection of the grandfather of the country, and I also want you to pay for your blood debt."
"Concubine De is angry, this matter has nothing to do with the lord of Fengyang, and the slave can testify." Biqing stepped forward and blocked in front of Sheng Mingzhu, but was slapped away by Concubine De, "You are a cheap, you dare to stop in front of me." ”
Biqing's body was beaten and staggered, Sheng Mingzhu took a step back, and the discomfort in her legs became more and more obvious.
Grandpa Guo and the Lin family just wanted to stand up to protect their daughter, but they heard the queen mother say sharply: "Don't pull Concubine De Niangniang away, the truth of the matter has not yet been investigated, the county lord of Fengyang is the county lord with the surname of His Majesty, and the grandfather of the country and General Zhenwei are the loyal and righteous courage personally rewarded by the saint, and the pillar of protection of the country relied on by the people. ”
King Chu glanced at Xie Bi'an, stepped forward and said, "Erchen thinks what the queen mother said is reasonable, and this matter needs to be thoroughly investigated." ”
Emperor Wu still held back his anger on his face, and when he heard this, he glanced at him coldly.
His Royal Highness the Prince, who was standing next to Concubine Yan, saw that the King of Chu stood up and said, not to be left behind, and then stood up and said: "Erchen also feels that this matter is full of suspicions, and he plotted to kill the prince, but the big crime of the Nine Clans, no matter how bad the Lord of Fengyang is, he will not fail to understand this truth." ”
When everyone saw the queen, the King of Chu and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince stood up to speak for the Sheng family, and they looked at each other, and many people then stood up to speak for Sheng Mingzhu and pleaded.
Although there is the Ling'an County Lord in the past, but this matter, as the two princes said, as long as they have a little brain, they will not think that the Sheng family girl will do this.
There must be something else hidden in this, at this moment, the Sheng family is in the limelight, and they came forward to ask for a favor, and they just happened to sell their favors to the Guogong Mansion.
The county lord of Ling'an didn't know the turmoil in the court, and at this moment, seeing so many people coming forward to intercede for Sheng Mingzhu, he said to Emperor Wu with unwillingness: "If the saint doesn't believe it, you can ask her, she is not in the front hall banquet so late, and with the maid beside Concubine Li, she secretly appeared here, what is Ande's intention." ”
Sheng Mingzhu, who had been silent and did not speak, suddenly smiled unexpectedly at this moment: "You and I are adjacent to each other, how to say that it is also a love for growing up together since childhood, and I picked the fine silver hairpin on your head for you, but who would have thought that it would be you who wanted to kill me today." Sheng Mingzhu's words changed, and his tone became cold. A few days ago, just because a subordinate had a little quarrel, a little suspicion actually made you resentful to this point, and slandered me for such a big crime, murdering the prince, what a big crime, you not only want me to die, but also want our Sheng family to die without a place to be buried. “
Lord Ling'an, you have such a vicious heart.
The latter sentence, Sheng Mingzhu did not say it, but those who are qualified to enter the palace for a banquet today are not stupid, and the eyes of the county lord of Ling'an are full of their own thoughts.
Hearing Sheng Mingzhu say this about her daughter, the eldest princess was unhappy, and said coldly: "Commander Zhang also said just now, he saw your hand taken away from the neck of the fourth prince with his own eyes, can this also be fake?" The little girl of the Sheng family, if you don't know what you don't know unless you do it, you can't argue with the facts, you don't go to the banquet in the palace, but you appear here with your subordinates, and Ling'an and Commander Zhang testify in person, what else do you have to explain. ”
"Please ask my father to severely punish the murderer and avenge Jin'er." Princess Fury knelt on the ground.
"Your Majesty, Jin'er is so innocent and pitiful, you must make the decision for him." Concubine De also cried and knelt in front of Emperor Wu.
"Sheng girl, what else do you have to say." Emperor Wu's temples were occasionally white, his voice was majestic, and he called the Sheng family girl affectionately in his mouth, but he couldn't see the slightest warmth on his face.
Sheng Mingzhu was looked at by him, and there was no fear on his face, and he knelt down without humility or arrogance: "The injuries on the four princes have nothing to do with the courtiers, and please ask the Holy Lord to investigate." ”
Seeing that Emperor Wu didn't speak, Sheng Mingzhu said again: "The courtiers hurt their legs and feet a few days ago, and today they were favored by the saint and were able to enter the palace to participate in the banquet, but their legs and feet could not be affected for a long time, so they invited the maid Biqing beside Sister to guide the way, and went to Liren Palace to rest for a while, who wanted to go to the Heyue Pond, but saw two black-clothed people sneaking a child into the stone cave here, the courtiers approached quietly, but found that the child they threw in their hands turned out to be the four princes, and jumped out to stop it at the moment, but the courtiers were alone and invincible with four hands, Let the two gangsters jump into the water and escape, and the courtiers saw that the fourth prince was not moving, so she wanted to test his snort, and then Commander Zhang came over. ”
"If the saint doesn't believe it, you can compare the pinched marks on the necks of the four princes, and the imperial doctors are here, and ask the saint to return the courtiers to a clean slate."
The needle was applied next to him, and seeing that the snort of the four princes slowly recovered, Imperial Doctor Zhang, who was breathing a sigh of relief, heard the words and said: "What the county lord of Fengyang said is true, the pinch marks on the neck of the four princes are obviously done by a strong man. ”
After listening to what Imperial Doctor Zhang said, the Sheng family finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Grandpa Guo stepped forward and knelt down and said: "Please also ask the Holy Lord to strictly investigate this matter, and return my little daughter to a clean house, since the villain jumped into the water and escaped, it is very likely that he is still lurking in the harem, for the safety of the Holy Lord and the princes, the ministers are invited, and the palace guards will search again, and will not let go of any corner of the harem." ”
"Shengshang, those two black-clothed people are familiar with the path in the palace, and after committing the crime, they also stunned the palace attendants in Sister A's palace, and they were thrown here, obviously preparing to frame the blame for Sister A, Sheng, my Sheng family is full of honesty and loyalty, for the stability of the Holy Zhou Dynasty for a hundred years, I would rather die in battle on the frontier, but at this moment, someone blatantly set up a poisonous plan to frame my sister, and the courtiers were wronged for my father and sister."
Sheng Mingzhu's words were earnest, his voice was sad, but the words he said were like a thunderclap.
One word stirred up a thousand waves.
Only then did everyone find out that there seemed to be a small chamberlain lying next to the four princes, and they originally thought that they were serving by the side of the four princes, but they didn't expect it to be in the palace of Concubine Li.
