Chapter 249: The truth that is about to surface

After dealing with the affairs of the Li Mansion, Jiang Liuli and Lan Tingxuan rode together and hurried back to Shengjing.

When they returned to their homes, they found that there were many officers and soldiers outside the door, and there were more people than outside the gate of the Li Mansion.

"Sure enough, it's a plan to divert the tiger from the mountain." Jiang Liuli smiled coldly, looking at the fierce scene at the gate of the Lan Mansion, she was very disdainful in her heart, did she really think that if she was tricked out of Shengjing, she would be able to capture the Lan Mansion? It's just whimsical.

Before leaving, she had already arranged everything, and Lan's mother and the children were secretly transferred by her early in the morning and hid them in Yishui Pavilion.

"Ruri, how is this good?" Lan Tingxuan looked at the scene in front of him in a daze, and still didn't understand how things could have evolved like this.

"Wait, wait until Xingtianqi comes." She said coldly, now that the matter has become a big problem, Xing Tianqi must have known, she wants to see what kind of choice he will make.

Lan Tingxuan didn't know what was going on, so she could only wait for the arrival of Xing Tianqi as she said, and maybe the answer would be revealed at that time.

And at this time in the palace, Xing Tianqi was angrily heading towards the Wanshou Palace, he already knew about what happened this morning, but he didn't understand why the Queen Mother sent troops to arrest Prime Minister Li Cheng and Lan Tingxuan without his knowledge.

Although Prime Minister Li Cheng had resigned when he ascended the throne as emperor, he had always remembered his teachings when he was young. There must be something hidden in this.

"See the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor." Walking into the Wanshou Palace, the palace people knelt down and saluted.

He ignored the group and continued to walk towards the dormitory, and before he could get closer, he heard the sound of conversation inside, and he stretched out his hand to silence the people around him, not allowing them to make any noise.

"What? Han Xiao is injured? The Queen Mother's exclamation came from the palace, Xing Tianqi frowned after hearing this, Qi Hanxiao's skills, he couldn't be more clear, and now that he was injured, it seems that the person who injured him is very likely to be Jiang Liuli.

"Yes, listening to Han Xiao's description, there is no doubt that it is Jiang Liuli's demon girl." A strong man's voice came again, this person was Xing Tianqi's uncle Zhongyonghou.

"This demon girl, why is she everywhere?" The Queen Mother said resentfully, which was diametrically opposed to the gentle and virtuous appearance of the past.

"The Queen Mother can rest assured, as long as we control the Lan Mansion, no matter how capable she is, she can only be captured." Marquis Zhongyong smiled confidently.

"No matter what, Lan Tingxuan must die." The Queen Mother said ruthlessly, in her eyes, as long as Lan Tingxuan can die, she will not hesitate to pay any price.

When Xing Tianqi heard this, he really couldn't listen to it anymore, he never thought that the gentle queen mother would disregard human life so much, because of her actions today, the people of Shengjing have become panicked.

He pushed open the door of the dormitory, walked in, ignored the surprised eyes of the two, and came to stand in front of the Queen Mother.

"Erchen doesn't know why the queen mother hates Lan Tingxuan so much, and she has to put him to death?" He looked at the Queen Mother coldly, and he would never give up until he asked the matter clearly.

The Queen Mother looked at him as if she was asking for guilt, and her heart felt a pang of pain, but she didn't show it, but just looked at the Zhongyong Marquis on the side coldly and signaled him to leave quickly.

"The minister retired." The Marquis of Zhongyong saluted Xingtianqi, and when he saw that he didn't speak, he withdrew from the dormitory, and the moment he closed the door, he sighed faintly.

"Queen Mother, please answer the son's question." Seeing that there was no one else in the dormitory, Xing Tianqi asked again.

"Didn't the mourning family say it? He colluded with the former prime minister and wanted to usurp the throne, the evidence is conclusive, and the mourning family saw that you were busy with official business during this time, and you respected the former prime minister, so he issued the decree. The Queen Mother said coldly, she had already thought of these words.

"Queen Mother, Prime Minister Li Cheng has been loyal to the imperial court for more than 40 years, how could he possibly seek to usurp the throne? If he wanted to usurp the throne, why didn't he let his grandson enter the court? The talents of his grandchildren can all be champions. Xing Tianqi smiled bitterly, the drama that can be seen at a glance, how could the Queen Mother be gullible.

"This is his strength, the grandchildren don't need to guard against him if they don't enter the court." The Queen Mother said coldly.

"Queen Mother, what kind of grudge do you have against Prime Minister Li and Lan Tingxuan, and you have to put them to death?" Xing Tianqi looked at the Queen Mother in disappointment, did he really think he couldn't see such a clumsy framing technique?

The reason why he didn't show it was because he wanted the Queen Mother to tell the truth herself, but what she did made him very disappointed.

"Your Majesty, the mourning family is doing this for your own good, if anyone wants to scold, scold me." The Queen Mother knew that this matter couldn't be hidden from his eyes, but so what, no one could stop what she wanted to do.

"Queen Mother, can't you tell your sons the truth?" Xing Tianqi looked at her helplessly, he just wanted to know the truth, was it so difficult?

"Emperor, this is a mistake made by the mourning family when they were young, and this time it should be up to the mourning family to end such a mistake themselves, so don't meddle in this matter." The Queen Mother closed her eyes helplessly, she didn't want her son to be disappointed in her, but she had to persist in this matter, even if she was spurned by thousands of people.

"Impossible, Lan Tingxuan is a friend of Erchen, Erchen can't let him die so inexplicably, not to mention, Jiang Liuli won't allow you to hurt him." Xing Tianqi shook his head resolutely, it was impossible for him to watch Lan Tingxuan die in vain.

More importantly, he is the emperor, and he can't let others die in vain because of his own selfishness, especially since this person is still the highly respected Prime Minister Li Cheng, although he is far away from the court, but his prestige still exists.

"Whether you agree or not, Lan Tingxuan must die." The Queen Mother said in a firm tone, things have come to this point, and they can no longer give up, they can only continue to move forward, even if this road will be insulted and spurned by the world, they can't give up.

"Queen Mother, what did Lan Tingxuan do wrong, you have to put him to death?" Seeing that the Queen Mother was so resolute, she was even more curious, Lan Tingxuan has always been gentle towards people and has never offended anyone, how could the Queen Mother hate him so much?

"Emperor, if you still recognize the mother of the mourning family, don't worry about this matter." The Queen Mother couldn't tell the truth, so she could only threaten him in this way.

"If you don't tell the truth, I won't let you kill innocents." Seeing that he couldn't move her, he was a little angry in his heart, and in his anger, he actually used the emperor's tone to talk to her.

"Okay, very good, you are now the king of a country, you don't have to listen to the queen mother, then you don't even want the queen mother." The Queen Mother said angrily, she didn't expect him to turn against her for Lan Tingxuan.

"The queen mother, the son didn't mean that." Seeing that the Queen Mother's angry body began to tremble slightly, Xing Tianqi could only soften his tone, in case he was angry, it would be terrible.

The Queen Mother saw that he was not as strong as just now, and took the initiative to admit her mistake, and the anger in her heart slowly subsided, but she still felt distressed like a thorn in her heart.

"Emperor, the mourning family is doing this for your own good, and you will understand in the future." She sighed and said, in fact, she didn't want to quarrel with the emperor, but this matter could not be compromised.

"Okay, the mourning family is tired and wants to rest." Seeing that he wanted to say something again, he was ruthlessly interrupted by her, and if he continued to talk, it was estimated that he would quarrel again.

Xing Tianqi closed his mouth in a daze, he originally wanted to find an opportunity to find out the truth, but now it seems impossible.

"The retainers retired." He lowered his eyes helplessly, it seemed that this matter still needed to be investigated in person.

Leaving the Wanshou Palace, he immediately asked An Fenghai to investigate Lan Tingxuan, everything from birth to the present must be investigated clearly, even if it is a small thing.

After An Fenghai received the order to leave, he took some people out of the palace, and the officers and soldiers sent by the Queen Mother were still encircling and suppressing the Lan Mansion, and it would not work if he didn't go there in person.

When he hurried to the Lan Mansion, he was suddenly stunned by the scene in front of him, and he watched in a daze as the brave and combative soldiers were beaten like a plate of scattered sand.

There was no one else who could defeat the strongest army of the Xingqi Kingdom except Jiang Liuli, and at this moment, she led dozens of people against hundreds of people, and she had no advantage in numbers, so she forced the officers and soldiers to retreat, not daring to take a step closer.

"The emperor has arrived." The chamberlain who followed the emperor saw his instructions and hurriedly shouted, but unfortunately his voice was muffled by the sound of swords colliding and no one heard him.

Seeing this, Xing Tianqi frowned unhappily, these armies were all managed by his uncle, and now for the sake of the Queen Mother, he dared to transfer troops into Beijing without permission, and what made people even more angry was that he began to disobey the orders of the emperor.

"Stop it." He let out a loud cry of rage, and this time everyone heard his voice because of the internal force he used.

When the soldiers saw Xing Tianqi, they stopped fighting, turned around and knelt down in front of him, and then shouted Long live the emperor, and the neat and loud voice did not reduce the majesty in the slightest.

Jiang Liuli looked coldly at Xing Tianqi not far away, took the opportunity to put away the silver wire in his hand, and walked straight to him.

Xing Tianqi saw her coming this way, and suddenly held her breath nervously, her face was not good at the moment, she must have come to reprimand him, and she was the only one in this world who dared to scold the emperor in front of everyone.

However, when she came to his side, she did not stop, but walked straight past him and walked behind him, which caught him off guard as he was about to speak.

He adjusted his mood and turned to look, and saw that Lan Tingxuan was behind him, so he suddenly smiled bitterly, knowing that she only had Lan Tingxuan in her heart, but she still couldn't stop hoping for those things that shouldn't be.

"Glass." Lan Tingxuan saw her coming, and hurriedly stepped forward and took her hand to look left and right, until he was sure that she was not injured, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

After they came back from Wannian Town just now, they saw that the Lan Mansion had been surrounded by officers and soldiers, and after Jiang Liuli hid him, he stepped forward to fight the rest of the Lan Mansion together.
