The next day, the sky was overcast and a little scary.

The clouds were low and low, making it difficult to tell if it was early in the morning or dusk at night.

Jiang Yu went to court as usual, his face was no better than the sky, and the people accompanying him were all carefully selected cronies, all of whom had unique skills.

"Jiang Xiang, please stay."

The familiar voice made Jiang Yu slightly surprised.

As soon as he got off the horse, he found that the person who came out of the palace gate was Xu Baisen.

"You?" Jiang Yu didn't know that Xu Baisen had been rescued, and he didn't bother to ask about it.

"Jiang Xiang, don't enter the palace." Xu Baisen's eyebrows tightened: "You should call yourself sick, maybe I can help you!" ”

Before the words fell, Xu Baisen swung his fist at Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu dodged the situation, and the entourage around him rushed up and restrained Xu Baisen.

"No, Jiang Yu, you really can't enter the palace." Xu Baisen was pressed to the ground, and his cheeks were dusted.

"It's a blessing and not a curse." The corners of Jiang Yu's lips hooked slightly: "Let him go." ”

Lu Yao nodded immediately, and the entourage let go of Xu Baisen.

He quickly got up, didn't care about patting the dust on his body, and walked in front of Jiang Yu: "The Queen Mother will not let you go." ”

"Peilin is in her hands." Jiang Yu said unhurriedly: "How can I leave her alone?" ”

These words made Xu Baisen petrify instantly, and after Jiang Yu walked in for a while, he woke up and chased after him.

In front of the golden hall, a high wooden platform was erected, and the bottom of the earthen platform was full of dry wooden branches.

After just one glance, Jiang Yu's heart tightened.

Does Wen Xinlan want to burn Gan Peilin alive?

"Jiang Yu, you'd better not mess around." Su Qizhe stood behind Jiang Yu and reminded with a cold face: "I am dissatisfied with the Empress Dowager's reign of imperial power, but I will never let you seek to usurp the throne." ”

Jiang Yu didn't look back, walked calmly, and walked up the jade steps.

Su Qizhe followed his pace, and went up the jade steps together, and only halfway through, he saw Xu Baisen catching up in a hurry.

"You're back?" Su Qizhe couldn't help but be curious, and stretched out his hand to stop Xu Baisen.

"Why didn't you stop him?" Xu Baisen frowned and looked at Su Qizhe: "If something happens to him, who can save Peilin." ”

"We can all save her." Su Qizhe raised his eyebrows slightly, and looked at Xu Baisen, who was covered in dirt: "However, you must first stay calm and tidy up your appearance." I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to see the Queen Mother and the new emperor like this. ”

"What His Royal Highness King Qin said is extremely true." Xu Zhongshen's tone was serious: "Bai Sen, you are too rude to be like this." ”

"Grandfather......" Xu Baisen turned his head and found that Xu Zhongshen and Xu Jingxian came together. My father also came......"

"Nature." Xu Jingxian frowned: "Don't hurry up and clean up yourself." How can the palace lose its honors. ”

"Yes." Xu Baisen hurriedly tidied up his clothes and wiped his cheeks again: "Grandfather and father are also here, so Peilin's chances of winning are a little more." ”

Su Qizhe said with a stiff face: "You can rest assured, Gan Peilin will be fine." ”

With that, the group hurriedly walked up the jade steps and quickly entered the golden hall.

Today's court is really lively, and everyone who can come is here.

Under the attention of everyone, Wen Xinlan came with the young new emperor in her arms.

She was dressed in a red phoenix robe, and her skirt was inlaid with excellent pigeon blood gems, and her shining appearance was magnificent, which was indeed the posture of a power-maker.

But there was no joy on the faces of the old courtiers.

How many days has the emperor died, and the queen mother wore such a festive costume, how could she have any respect.

Even the new emperor was wrapped in such a dazzling swaddling clothes, without the slightest consideration for the first emperor.

Even so, the courtiers saluted in unison: "Long live the Five Emperors, long live, long live." ”

Wen Xinlan hugged the new emperor, lifted a long phoenix robe, and then committed herself to sit on the dragon chair. She looked around, her gaze passed over each courtier, and finally said, "Flat." ”

Everyone knows that only the emperor can say that he is flat.

Even if she is the queen mother, she can only use words such as exemption or invitation. But the Queen Mother did not shy away from it, and the courtiers were helpless.

King Huiqing was the first to step forward and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother, and the ministers have thoroughly investigated the affairs of Concubine Yun, and they already have eyebrows. The sinner Gan Peilin shielded the concubine and escaped from the palace privately, but she didn't want to be discovered by the ministers, so she harmed the concubine overnight, in a vain attempt to destroy the corpse and destroy the traces, but unfortunately it was a step late. Surrendered to the Prime Minister's Mansion and caught him on the spot. Please let the Queen Mother decide. ”

Prince Night glanced back at Jiang Yu and instantly understood something.

If it weren't for the Prime Minister's wife sacrificing herself to protect her, it would be impossible for Jiang Yu to stand here at this time.

He knew it in his heart, so he stepped forward: "The queen mother, the emperor, the minister has some doubts, I don't know if I can ask." ”

Wen Xinlan naturally nodded: "King Yeqing and King Huiqing are both auxiliary princes, so naturally they can ask." ”

"Thank you for the grace of the Queen Mother." King Yeqing turned to look at King Huiqing and asked, "Concubine Yun disappeared a few days ago, why was she only captured in the Prime Minister's Mansion last night?" ”

King Huiqing was quite dissatisfied with his tone of questioning, and said unhappily: "Then you have to ask the Prime Minister's wife where Concubine Yun was hiding before." I have to ask her why she only took people back to the Prime Minister's Mansion last night. ”

After saying that, King Huiqing nodded to the inner guard.

Gan Peilin was escorted to the Golden Palace by the guards.

said that it was an escort, and the Queen Mother treated her well. She didn't ask anyone to tie her up, she just asked the guards to follow her up. It can be regarded as giving her enough face.

Seeing that his grandfather and uncle were there, Gan Peilin felt faintly uncomfortable. She must not implicate the Xu family, and must take good care of these relatives who love her for her mother.

"Is King Yeqing dumb?" King Huiqing said unhappily: "Aren't you curious? The prisoner has already been brought, why don't you ask? ”

"Prisoner?" When Gan Peilin heard these two words, he felt particularly harsh and couldn't help laughing.

This move angered King Huiqing, and his face was gloomy and a little scary: "What a bold man, he dares to make a mistake in the Golden Palace." Didn't you take the queen mother and the emperor seriously? ”

"There is no excuse for the sin you want to add." Gan Peilin replied with cold eyes, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Someone sent Concubine Yun to the Prime Minister's Mansion last night. For the sake of the family, the concubine just asked someone to serve her to change her clothes, and entertained her with some coarse tea and light rice, is this a criminal wife? ”

"She is a criminal of the imperial court, and you took her in privately, and you still don't admit guilt?" King Huiqing gritted his teeth and said.

"I plan to send her back to the palace at dawn. But ......" Gan Peilin lowered his head and said regretfully: "She was too worried about the first emperor, and after saying goodbye to me, she followed the first emperor." I can't stop her, and I'm sorry I can't stop her. ”

"It's a clever tongue." King Huiqing was really angry: "Harboring and harboring the concubine of the first emperor, coming out of the mouth of the prime minister's wife, turned out to be following the first emperor, Gan Peilin, you are really the true biography of the great Sima." ”

"Then may I ask King Huiqing, which eye did you see the concubine poisoning Concubine Yun?" Gan Peilin asked rhetorically: "Yes, you went to the Prime Minister's Mansion late at night, but when you came, Concubine Yun had already gone with the first emperor, how could you clearly see that the concubine was poisoned and destroyed the body?" ”

"You ......" King Huiqing was speechless for a while, and had to glance at the Queen Mother.

"If you want to follow the first emperor...... Wen Xinlan couldn't help but speak: "She just has to follow in the palace." Why did you want to escape from the palace without permission, be charged with a crime, and then commit suicide? Concubine Yun is still young, and she is not willing to bury the rest of her life in this deep palace, so she begs you to save her. ”

Wen Xinlan raised her hand.

Bao Que presented Concubine Yun's letterhead: "These are the letterheads intercepted by the Great Internal Guard, I'm afraid there are still some that have not been intercepted." It was all Concubine Yun who asked the prime minister's wife for help. ”

"And that's not all." Wen Xinlan stared and said: "Da Sima embezzled silver money, made the armament incomplete, and shoddy, resulting in the defeat of the Ao family's army. As the daughter of the Great Sima Mansion, you are also guilty of one degree, and there is no way to refute it. Gan Peilin, it's all this time, do you still have to quibble? ”

What the Queen Mother means is that if you confess your sins well, the Gan Mansion may be able to immortalize.

But if you refuse to admit your guilt, the fiasco of the Ao family army will also involve Xu Baisen, and both the Great Sima Mansion and the Xu Mansion will be convicted at that time.

Gan Peilin couldn't hear it, but she wasn't afraid.

"My father has never been corrupt and bent the law, Ganfu was born in Jiangmen, and there is no shortage of warriors who have sacrificed their lives for the country for several generations. My father would never let the soldiers go into battle with indiscriminate armaments. This is the bottom line of being a leader. Gan Peilin raised his chin slightly: "It was His Royal Highness King Huiqing who impeached my father, and the one who slandered me for murdering Concubine Yun was also His Royal Highness King Huiqing. However, the concubine is really curious, when did King Huiqing start staring at Da Sima with one mind and staring at the Prime Minister's Mansion with one mind? ”

"How can this be reasonable, what does this king want to do, do you need to explain it to your wife?" King Huiqing said coldly and arrogantly: "Da Sima has committed many injustices, so naturally he has to pay the price. ”

"Okay, may I ask Your Highness, did my father sign the pledge and admit that he embezzled military funds?" Gan Peilin wrinkled his brows and asked, "Where is the painting?" Can you present it to the officials in person? ”

"How the court tries the case, it's not your turn to put a woman's beak." King Huiqing was secretly unhappy.

He tried his best, but he really couldn't force Gan Yuntian to admit his guilt.

With a sharp mouth, you can shout in this golden palace. Wen Xinlan really admired Gan Peilin's courage, but she wouldn't let her live anymore.

"Mrs. Prime Minister, the mourning family advises you not to resist anymore." Wen Xinlan frowned: "Da Sima's side, sooner or later, he will recognize it." And Concubine Yun died in the Prime Minister's Mansion, you will not be able to escape the responsibility after all. The mourning family has ordered someone to erect a wooden platform to give you a ride. You should confess your sins earlier and avoid the pain of the flesh. ”

"Why should the Queen Mother be in a hurry." Su Qizhe couldn't listen to it anymore, and Jiang Yu was still silent.

He stepped forward with a smile and arched his hand: "Wei Chen listens like this, and the words of the prime minister's wife are also reasonable. Maybe Concubine Yun just wants to see her relatives and then go with Emperor Xianxi. Unless there is evidence that is nine out of ten, it is indeed unconvincing to punish the crime in this way. It's hard to escape the suspicion of being framed, isn't it? ”
