"Shen Xianhe, you are so ruthless, my son just said that you cheated, so you pushed her into the lotus pond, causing her to leave like this at a young age, you femme fatale, why didn't you die. You are an ominous person, not to mention killing your own mother, even the eldest princess who adopted you has left, and now you have killed my daughter ....... ”

Shen Xianhe stiffened, wanting to say something, but seeing her crying bitterly, he couldn't say anything anymore.

The bell girl stood up angrily and retorted angrily.

"You're embarrassed to say that our young lady is ruthless, femme fatale, your daughter is dead, that's her own fault, playing a pot throwing game, not winning our miss, just say we cheat, it's such a simple game, as for cheating? It's not a big benefit, why should she be like this? Besides, our young lady pushed your daughter into the lotus pond, you deliberately confused the public, obviously your daughter can't afford to lose, go and pull our young lady, don't say it when you fall down, and pull our young lady down together, fortunately, our young lady is blessed with a great life, not like your daughter, harming others will not end up harming yourself. ”

The bell girl said this quickly and ruthlessly, and stopped crying when Mrs. Li was crying, and looked at her in amazement.

"What the hell is going on?"

Chu Xi's voice came, and everyone got out of the way one after another to greet him.

As if grasping a life-saving straw, Mrs. Li reacted quickly, knelt down in front of Chu Xi, and cried loudly.

"Your Majesty, please be the master of the little girl! The little girl was pushed to the lotus pond by Shen Xianhe and drowned, the courtiers questioned her, she refused to admit it, and instructed her maid to speak ill of me, these are obvious to everyone, she can reverse black and white, she is really lawless, bold and reckless. ”

The bell girl was angry, and when she wanted to step forward to argue for her, Shen Xianhe took her hand and shook her head at her, signaling her not to act rashly.

After getting her instructions, despite how unwilling the bell girl was in her heart, she still endured it and followed Shen Xianhe's side.

After listening to Mrs. Li's words, Chu Xi pretended to look at her with an embarrassed look.

"Xianhe, is what Mrs. Li said true?"

Shen Xianhe sneered in his heart, grabbing such a handle, Chu Xi couldn't wait to trample her under his feet, how could he help her? It's a pity that she won't let him succeed?

"Your Majesty, what Mrs. Li said is not true, the folk girl did not push Miss Li, she was dissatisfied with the result of the game and rushed over to pull the folk girl, the folk girl tried to break free, in the meantime, the two unfortunately fell into the lotus pond together, the folk girl was lucky to get General Huo to recognize the wrong person, and the folk girl was rescued, so she picked up a life, as for the lawlessness and arrogance that Mrs. Li said, the folk girl did not dare to be, so many people present saw it, who is reversing black and white, everyone knows it."

As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Junhe hurriedly stood up and echoed.

"Your Majesty, the minister believes in Shen Xianhe's character, she will not be like Mrs. Li said."

Mrs. Huai'an Hou and Gu Rongrong, who were hiding outside the crowd, were secretly having fun, and suddenly saw Gu Junhe rushing out to speak for Shen Xianhe, and they were all angry.

Huai'an Hou also stood up.

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister also believes that Shen Xianhe will not do such a thing, and please ask Your Majesty to be aware of everything."

"Okay, Shen Xianhe is a member of your Gu family, this is already a well-known fact, now you stand up and speak for her, your Gu family's daughter is a daughter, and my Li family's daughter is not a daughter, should you let your daughter kill her?"

Seeing Huai'an Hou and Gu Junhe standing up to speak for her, Mrs. Li's mood became even more volatile.

"Your Majesty, what the folk girl said is the truth, if you don't believe it, you can ask people other than the Gu family."

Shen Xianhe opened his mouth with a calm face.

Chu Xi looked at her, then at Mrs. Li who was kneeling in front of her, and said coldly.

"Whoever comes, isolates all the people present, interrogates them one by one, and there is no need to waste time on the side where I am, although everyone is on the shore, but they are still separated by some distance, and they can't see it very clearly, and they can't do any evidence."

Soon, the nobles present were separated for interrogation, while Shen Xianhe, the people of the Gu family, and the people of the Li family all stayed in place, waiting for the results of the investigation.

And Chu Xi looked at Huo Biao, who was watching the show on the side, and couldn't help but ask.

"I just heard Xianhe say that you recognized the wrong person, so I rescued her first?"

Huo Biao turned his head and glanced at Shen Xianhe, his face was full of disgust, and he replied to Chu Xi with annoyance.

"Your Majesty, don't mention it, I obviously went to Miss Li, but unfortunately the lotus pond is full of silt, and the minister can't see who is who? If the minister hadn't mentioned the wrong person, maybe it would not have been Miss Li who died, but ...... Hum! ”

Although his last words were not spoken, everyone understood what he meant.

When Mrs. Li heard this, she sobbed even more silently, and Prime Minister Li Cheng, who got the news, was silently standing aside and comforting her.

"You've never been a nosyman, why did you rush to save people this time without getting my order?"

Chu Xi looked at Huo Biao and said with a smile.

"It's not because of Prime Minister Li."

Huo Biao replied impatiently, seeing that everyone was looking at him puzzled, he continued to explain.

"This Prime Minister Li Cheng likes to find the minister's stubble the most on weekdays, as long as the minister has something to do, he will immediately play to you and start to impeach the minister, the minister is not afraid of him, but he thinks he is a little annoying, so he also thinks about being more attentive, if he saves his daughter, he has inherited such a big favor, and he will not keep staring at the minister in the future."

After hearing his explanation, Chu Xi couldn't help laughing, but the current occasion was not suitable for laughing, so he pretended to cough a few times, and after holding back the smile, he straightened up.

"It's the only thing that can do that."

After listening to Huo Biao's words, Prime Minister Li Cheng had a shame on his face and bowed to him apologetically.

Huo Biao said unappreciatively.

"Don't bow to me, although I have this heart, but the final result is that I can't save her."

Just when Prime Minister Li Cheng was about to say something, the person who went to interrogate came back with everyone's confessions.

"Your Majesty, this is the right word of the people present, the fact is as Miss Shen said, it is because Miss Li was dissatisfied with the result of the game, rushed up to reason with Miss Shen, and then in the process, Miss Li pulled Miss Shen, and then the two fell into the lotus pond together between pulling."

Chu Xi took the confession recorded by everyone and looked at it, everyone signed and drew a charge behind what they said, and after he roughly swept it, he handed it to Chen Han, who was speechless.

said to Mrs. Li and Prime Minister Li who were still crying.

"The result is already here, this is the case, I am also very sad about Miss Li's departure, and I also ask the two of you to mourn and change."

"Now that the truth has been ascertained, the minister has nothing to say, and His Majesty Xie will uphold justice."

Prime Minister Li Cheng forcibly endured the pain, knelt in front of Chu Xi and made a big salute, and then replied.

"Xianhe, although Miss Li's death is not directly related to you, but it is also because of you, and you are also responsible for her death, so you can escape the death penalty, but the living crime is unforgivable, I will punish you with ten lashes to set an example."

Shen Xianhe strode forward and saluted Chu Xi.

"The people's girls are at fault and are willing to be punished."

After saying that, she knelt on the ground with a "plop" and let the guards come forward and whip her.

The guard seemed to have received some order, and each whip was extremely hard, and the whips were drawn on her body, leaving deep blood marks, and her clothes were torn, revealing the bloody wounds of the moon.

Mrs. Li, who was still crying, saw that she was beaten so far, and gradually stopped crying, she also knew that this was the emperor making them angry, if she continued to cry without knowing how to lift up, then the emperor might really make them unable to get down the steps.

When she thought of her daughter who had lost her fragrance and jade at a young age, Mrs. Li was full of hatred in her heart, seeing Shen Xianhe being whipped like this, she still couldn't dispel the hatred in her heart, and silently swore in her heart that she would always find an opportunity to avenge her daughter in the future.
