Chapter 416: Dealing with the Aftermath
Don't count?
It's too much to count!
Is this a slap in the face in public, and then said that he was too excited to smoke the wrong person? This made him more angry than the incident itself. Zhu Changan was trembling with anger, and he almost wanted to step forward and strangle this woman desperately!
"What a sharp-toothed county lord, my father only let you say what happened, but didn't let you make a judgment, what are your intentions for speculating so wildly!"
At this time, Zhu Changan also understood that if there was no substantial evidence witness, it would definitely not work if he wanted to bite Cheng Ziyu. So the only thing he can do at this time is to think of Xiao Huai out of the incident.
"Father, the county lord of Jinxi seems to be a little prejudiced against his son, and her testimony is only afraid that it will not be credible, and her son feels ......"
"That's it! Shut up! The Emperor's anger gradually rose.
Although the emperor cleared the people out of the courtyard, the crowd did not disperse, and they were all concerned about it. Because of Cheng Ziyu's sentence just now, the emperor clearly felt that the direction of this matter had changed again......
Lose face!
The evidence is conclusive, and the victims and perpetrators are all Zhu Changan's people. Even if this matter has nothing to do with him, he will not be able to escape the responsibility of His Majesty! What kind of face is he still bouncing around here......
At this time, the guards had already confirmed that there were Wang Yue's fingerprints and traces wiped by clothes on the high vat according to Cheng Ziyu's instructions. Because it is a ruined courtyard, the tank and the ground are covered with ash, so the traces are particularly obvious. Even on the ground, there are traces left by the scraping of Wang Yue's shoes when they were pushed out.
The abdomen of Wang Yue's clothes does have a layer of gray marks.
The medical lady and the grandmother brought by the emperor also came forward to confirm that there was an obvious indentation on the abdomen of the princess, and there were red marks left by the back of the princess. Judging from that imprint, it should be a good start.
Then the high cylinder was hit by that and pushed it back nearly an inch away, and the marks on the ground can prove that this force is not small.
All indications show that Cheng Ziyu is not lying.
The Emperor motioned for her to continue.
"The stewards of the Cheng family are all Jingxi locals, and Jingxi people rely on their skills to eat, where are there those who know martial arts? And at that time, as soon as I saw the man, I felt familiar, and I saw that he was obviously targeting the princess, and then I remembered that he seemed to be the person of the four princes.
He was clearly caught stealing food, and he was angry. Such a wicked slave, how can he be allowed to be presumptuous! I immediately ordered someone to stop the courtyard gate and try to take this man down. Then a few of us stepped forward to stop him, but this martial artist is so strong that so many of us went up to arrest him, but he easily solved it. ”
Cheng Ziyu pointed at Wang Yue's grandmother who was knocked unconscious and injured, and Xiang'er who was sobbing...... She has a lot of injuries on her body, her clothes are messy, and she is embarrassed, and she is not afraid of being investigated at all.
The people brought out by Wang Yue were all cronies, and as long as their masters didn't object or speak at this time, the three people who were dizzy and crying didn't say a word that shouldn't have been said.
Cheng Ziyu pointed at Liu Er again.
"Fortunately, I brought a girl who knows martial arts with me. My girl was bought from Jinling with a lot of money that day, and she is a good martial artist, but today she has a place to use. She rushed forward and backward, barely trying to stop the man.
The two of them were entangled, and I called out a few times, thanks to a patrol team nearby, who quickly came to surround the man, and together they took him down. No, the man was still a celebrity, and several guards recognized him at a glance. At that time, I knew that this person was the confidant of the fourth prince called Xiao Huai. ”
The patrol came up to confirm that what the county lord said was true.
said that after they took Xiao Huai, they tied him up and controlled him, and hurried to ask for help and report to the fifth prince...... General Li and the fifth prince came early, and arranged for the medical woman to come over as soon as possible.
The medical woman stepped forward again to prove that when she arrived, Concubine Wang was in a dangerous condition and had signs of miscarriage......
Zhu Changan opened his mouth, unable to refute.
Mama Jin was still pretending to be dead, and Wei Hong didn't look at him at all.
And the near-truth experience brought by Cheng Ziyu made him unable to find a loophole and have no way to start.
The emperor nodded, and motioned for his father-in-law to step forward and ask Wang Yue, did Xiao Huai push her?
Wang Yue opened his eyes and replied like this:
She didn't see it clearly, only to see a blue shadow float by, and then her back sank, and she was pushed out, and her abdomen hit the high tank, and the pain made her delirious......
She is a smart person, she didn't lie, she didn't frame anyone, and she didn't testify against Zhu Changan, she protected herself to the greatest extent. For her, that's the best thing to do......
The facts are actually quite clear.
The Emperor already had a judgment in his heart.
Jin Yu and Xiao Huai shouldn't have appeared at the banquet at all, but they appeared in this abandoned courtyard at this moment, and they actually didn't run away.
There were only a few people present, and only Xiao Huai was able to talk about ability and possibility.
The "blue shadow" in Wang Yue's mouth, only Xiao Huai was dressed in blue.
What's more, there are all kinds of human and material evidence......
On the other hand, if Cheng Ziyu is talking nonsense, slandering, and lying, then Wang Yue will definitely come forward to refute it, and Concubine Zhao's grandmother will also be arrogant, and they will definitely shout that they are wronged and beg for severe punishment.
But at this moment, they are all saying no, and if they don't say it, it's hard to talk about it, and it's clear that they are in a dilemma......
After that, it was obvious.
The emperor stepped forward, kicked Xiao Huai in the chest, and kicked out.
"What crime should you be guilty of murdering the royal bloodline?"
Xiao Huai shook his head and looked at Zhu Changan.
Zhu Changan was afraid that Xiao Huai would be deposed, and he was afraid that Xiao Huai would accidentally shake something out, so he was still working hard to fight.
"Father, Xiao Huai said that he didn't do it. Why don't we hear what he has to say? ”
Zhu Changjue next to him sneered.
"What's so good about it now. Fourth brother, he eats inside and out, is disloyal and unfilial, plots to kill the royal bloodline, and steals your people...... The combined punishment for several crimes was enough for him to die many times. As long as he's not a fool, he won't admit it, right? His word does not count! ”
At this time, if he doesn't fall into the well by the way, Zhu Changjue feels sorry for today's excitement.
He couldn't help but glance at Wei Hong several times.
Today's play, I don't know how to act, is even more exciting than he imagined, the key is that his hands are clean and innocent, it is interesting to watch these people eat dogs......
And over there, Zhu Changan knew that his brothers were pushing down the wall, and he knelt directly on the ground.
"The son thinks that there must be something strange about this matter, father, this thing is quite strange, Xiao Huai is his son's subordinate, and his son still knows a little about his character. The son feels that this matter needs to be carefully investigated, whether the father can hand over this matter to the son to investigate, and the son will definitely give you a satisfactory answer. ”
"Father, the evidence for this is conclusive."
Zhu Changzhe lowered his voice. "If you ignore the testimony of the witnesses who have been confirmed and insist on re-investigation, it will inevitably damage the majesty and prestige of the royal family and the imperial court, so many guests are here, it is a matter of royal face, and the royal family has to give an explanation, so this matter should be closed quickly......
"Fifth brother, my father has his own decision, don't try to influence my father's judgment. Your people happened to be in a hurry, but they happened to pass by this abandoned courtyard at a time of crisis, and I am afraid that it is not very clean. Don't you think it's strange, Father? How can it be such a coincidence? ”
"Fourth brother, what you said is ridiculous! As soon as the accident happened, I, the younger brother, rushed to the scene, caught the murderer for you, and saved your concubine and child, don't you thank me and suspect me? You're not authentic!
You have a problem with your cognition too! What the? The internal defense was handed over to me, and the guards on patrol were my people? The duty of the guards is to patrol everywhere, so what's wrong with patrolling around? It's ridiculous that you don't hold your people accountable for committing adultery, but you question the guards responsible for the security of the feast? ”
Zhu Changzhe is very good at grasping the psychology of the emperor. Zhu Changan is stupid, want to fight him? "The whole world is not a king soldier", he questioned the guards, that is, he questioned the emperor. Just pick out a word, and you can make your father disgusted to death!
"Fourth brother, according to your logic, could it be that I didn't know in advance that there was a big drama here? Arranged in advance for the guards to wait here for the rabbits? Could it be that I sent someone to kidnap your from Concubine Zhao and found your subordinates to frame it? It's just a joke in the world. Do you blame them for ruining your good deeds by having such a big opinion of the dutiful guards? ”
Zhu Changzhe's words turned like this, just turned back to the "nonsense" mentioned by Cheng Ziyu before, and it also confirmed to everyone Zhu Changan's strange behavior today, and by the way, he also pulled a big circle of hatred from the guards to Zhu Changan......
Cheng Ziyu knew that Zhu Changzhe could say it, but she didn't expect to say it.
The cooperation is still so tacit and pleasant.
She understood and answered immediately.
"Actually, the four princes don't say it, I also want to ask the emperor to make the decision and check it out. Why did they all insist that Jin Yu was mistreating with the Cheng family? I've been curious all the way, the Cheng family steward has no post, how did he get into this Wang family? How is it possible to touch this place? The Cheng family is too late to do the goods, how to get in touch with the gold and jade in the back house in the blue sky and daylight? This Xiao Huai is clearly pretending to be the steward of our Cheng family! Xiao Huai, what do you want? Who instructed you to pretend to be a member of the Cheng family? ”
Zhu Changan wanted to argue, but he couldn't speak. He knew that not only had the tide turned, but the crisis had shifted to him again.
But Cheng Ziyu didn't even give him time to deal with it, and at this moment he was naming Wei Hong, "Miss Wei, why did you insist on seeing my Cheng family steward?" But someone bought you? ”
Wei Hong thought that there was nothing wrong with her, but she was taken aback when she was named at this moment.
"No, no!"
She immediately called the names of the two girls outside the courtyard gate, saying that she had not lied, that she had not been bought, and that all three of them had seen it.
The two girls swore by heaven and assured that what they said was true.
At the same time, the two pointed at Xiao Huai and said in unison: "It's this person!" We followed him here and saw him and Jinyu here...... Pull pull pull. We couldn't stand it anymore and went back, and then when the princess found out, she invited the county lord to come over. ”
"You say he's the Cheng family's steward?" Father-in-law Yu asked.
"We saw a token drop from him, it was the token of the Cheng family."
The guards stepped forward and found a Cheng family token from Xiao Huai's underwear. This token was originally left in the house by Xiao Huai, but half an hour ago, it was secretly stuffed back into his clothes.
"That's it." The two girls nodded in unison. This person kept saying that he was the steward of the Cheng family, saying that he had the support of the county lord, and no one was afraid...... That's when we were mistaken. But this man is born, and we really haven't seen it. ”
"It's strange if you see it, he's from the capital, not even from Jingxi!"
Cheng Ziyu was furious at Xiao Huai, "Where did you get the Cheng family token, it seems that you not only pretended to be the Cheng family, but also wanted to harm me?" Have me back you up? Do I know you? ”
Cheng Ziyu immediately knelt down for the emperor.
"The Cheng family's token is fixed. Whether they stole it or forged it is a matter of fact.
If Jinxi didn't bring a martial arts maid by his side today, if there were no guards arriving in time, the consequences would be unimaginable. At that time, Xiao Huai escaped, wouldn't the pot of murdering the princess and the little emperor and grandson have to be carried by Jinxi and the Cheng family? Ask the emperor to be the master of Jinxi and the Cheng family! Make the decision for the princess! Be the master of the little emperor's grandson! ”
Cheng Ziyu made such a fuss, the window paper was about to break!
It's just about herself, but she has to be involved in the "emperor grandson", who hasn't given birth yet, who knows if she will be born or not, who knows if it's a man or a woman, the emperor is itching, but he can't say that she is wrong......
The emperor's scalp was numb, and if he couldn't understand what this trick was at this point, then he would live in vain.
It's really not going to stop for a day!
But before he could speak, a figure appeared behind him.
I saw Li Chun kicking Xiao Huai's waist and eyes.
"Do you want the county lord to support you? Then ask your master if he agrees! Since you have a bad waist, the master will treat you first? ”
Xiao Huai, who was kneeling on the ground, snorted and fell sideways.
In an instant, Xiao Huai's face was pale, and his head was full of beads of sweat the size of beans jumping out.
"Think about the consequences before you start. The county lord is the general's wife under the holy decree, and if you frame him, you will slap me in the face. How? Shouldn't you have borrowed the county lord to calculate me? As Li Chun spoke, he walked around behind Xiao Huai and kicked him in the back again.
"Stop!" Zhu Changan took two steps closer to stop it, but he obviously heard a "click". Xiao Huai's eyes bulged outward, his face was distorted, his face was full of pain, and he fell to the ground.
Zhu Changan's vest was cold again, just now, Xiao Huai is like this, is it lumbar spine...... Broken?
"Li Chun!" Zhu Changan's lips trembled with anger.
Li Chun ignored him at all, and only looked at Xiao Huai with a sneer.
"Regardless of whether you are instructed by someone to do today, or whether the people behind you are here or not, I will leave the words first, Cheng Ziyu and the Cheng family, I will keep it. Whoever makes a moth any more will be against me. I don't care how big his backer is, I will never spare him! ”
Xiao Huai's lumbar vertebrae have been broken, and Li Chun's words are naturally not for Xiao Huai.
After finishing speaking, Li Chuncai turned his face to Zhu Changan.
"The Fourth Prince called me? Is it to be explained? Li Chun faced Zhu Si with his back to the emperor, and the undisguised killing intent flowed in his eyes.
The more arrogant he became, the more weak Zhu Changan became, and he was destined to gain nothing today.
Cheng Ziyu understood that Li Chun deliberately preemptively abolished Xiao Huai in public.
A bad lumbar spine is equivalent to a waste person.
No matter how good Zhu Changan has to save Xiao Huai, there is nothing he can do.
Li Chun didn't go through the emperor, and he didn't use formal interrogation, so he shot in public, arrogant, rude, simple, but enough to be remembered!
His strong domineering is not only to deter Zhu Changan and Zhu Changjue and others, but also to let everyone see the consequences of bullying her. He's backing her up in his own way.
The effect is very good, Zhu Changan didn't hold back half a word.
In fact, several people have focused their attention on the emperor at this moment. Li Chun's actions just now were completely out of order, and it was impossible for the emperor not to see it!
Zhu Changjue, Zhu Changqi and others all have the mentality of watching a good show.
"General Li is so mighty......" Before the word "wind" came out, Zhu Changjue, who was just about to fall into the well, was interrupted.
"Zhe'er!" It was the emperor who interrupted Zhu Changjue.
A few people who were afraid that the world would not be chaotic were slightly surprised.
The emperor really didn't intend to pursue Li Chun, but he just pretended not to see it, and even looked at Li Chun without a trace of blame, and there was something strange.
"Zhe'er, I'll leave this matter to you. Jin Yu and Xiao Huai, you take it back! Today, you came in time, saved the princess and caught Xiao Huai, and you will be credited! After returning to Beijing, we will discuss the reward! ”
The emperor can see that he must also die down at this time.
If you tear it down again, the water will come out, and you will still lose the face of the royal family.
Therefore, it is most important to find someone to deal with the aftermath, but there is no need to clean it too cleanly, and it is most important to calm things down quickly......
The emperor's selection of Zhu Changzhe to deal with the aftermath was also expected by Cheng Ziyu.
This matter caused a lot of attention, and no matter how many eyes would continue to stare at it, they couldn't even hand it over to Bai Heng. Zhu Changzhe contributed to this matter, and it was the most appropriate to hand it over to him......
Father-in-law Yu walked outside the courtyard to continue the banquet and signaled the guards to evacuate everyone.
Only a few parties remained in the hospital.
Zhu Changzhe began to take care of the aftermath, took Xiao Huai and Jin Yu away, and invited several eyewitnesses to go elsewhere.
Wang Yue's side poured a lot of medicine.
The expressions on the faces of the two imperial doctors gradually soothed.
The four-month-old fetus is very stable, and the success of the guarantee is still not small.
After checking the pulse a few times, the pulse finally stabilized.
The imperial doctor came to report the good news, saying that as long as there were no accidents, the fetus should be saved. In recent days, it is best for the princess to lie flat in bed to recuperate, and not to move and move around at will......
But when Wang Yue heard this, he ignored the imperial doctor's obstruction, and wanted to get up and kneel on the ground, and his bright eyes were full of tears.
With a wave of his hand, the emperor ordered the doctor to press her back.
"You're not well, so take a good rest. The fleet will leave tomorrow, and you will stay in Jingxi to protect the tires. ”
The emperor naturally understood what Wang Yue was afraid of.
The imperial doctor said that if nothing happens, the fetus can be saved. But since it was an accident, it could happen anytime and anywhere. Since someone doesn't want this baby, the accident is bound to happen.
"There is no fine person in the fourth courtyard to serve you, let Father-in-law Yu send you to Mrs. Wang's place to live for a while, and I will ask the Queen Mother to assign two people to take care of your baby."
What the emperor said was exactly what Wang Yue wanted, and she burst into tears for a while, feeling a little grateful......
The emperor sighed slightly.
Wang Yue's performance has confirmed to him what Xiao Huai did, and obviously Wang Yue also knows that it is her husband who doesn't want this baby. If she wants to keep the child, the first thing she has to guard against is her husband. So by Zhu Changan's side, she couldn't stay......
The emperor didn't expect that this son was ruthless.
Before he went to the northwest, he planned to sever the bonds of Beijing.
In fact, only from the point of view of courage, this heart appeared in the fourth child, and the emperor felt slightly gratifying. This son, after breaking up with Concubine Zhao and following Bai Heng, has indeed become a big picture recently, and he knows how to think about it in the long run.
But the capacity is not enough...... It's a hard injury, and self-defeating is not what the emperor wants. It's a long way, and he's still far away!
Wang Yue was sent away.
The emperor walked up to Cheng Ziyu.
"In this matter, the Cheng family was wronged. Since Concubine Wang's fetus has been saved, and you and the Cheng family have not suffered any losses, it is better to expose it. I visited the Cheng family workshop the day before yesterday and felt a lot, so I wrote a note to the Cheng family workshop and asked my father-in-law to send it over for a while. In addition...... "The emperor glanced at Li Chun.
"I have something I want to say to Old Man Cheng, you will see your grandfather in a while, tell me for me."
"Yes."
The emperor will turn a big deal into a small one, and the result of this disposal is expected by Cheng Ziyu. However, if the emperor wants to find her grandfather, he will summon her directly, so why bother to let her tell her at this time? He is clearly doing it for Li Chun!
Thinking of the comings and goings of these two people, I am afraid that there are still a lot of secrets between the two.
Li Chun volunteered to send Cheng Ziyu away, so that only the emperor and Zhu Changan were left in this courtyard.
"Father, I ......"
The Emperor raised his hand to stop his words.
It's all nonsense. If you don't want to hear it, you don't have to listen to it.
"I only have three points to say: first, Wang Yue's fetus is being watched by many people at the moment, and you are not allowed to do it again. If I find out that you have made a small move, I will punish you severely!
Second, I allow you to follow Bai Heng is already the greatest tolerance for you, and you know how many catties and taels you have. Bai Heng is a person I trust, if you hadn't blocked that knife for me in Zhenjiang, I would never have agreed. Such an opportunity, you weigh it yourself. I have tolerated you enough, but there is a limit to this tolerance, and if you provoke again, you will bear the consequences!
Third, I don't understand why you want to make a move on Cheng Ziyu. But aside from Li Chun's level, Cheng Ziyu and the Cheng family are useful to me! Cheng Ziyu is a smart person, and the benefits she brings to me are far more important than the name and wealth I give her. If you do it to her again, I will still say the same thing, and I will bear the consequences!
That's it, you know what is happening today. I pressed it down for you, and it was I who did it for you. In the future, if you want me to value it, you must also let me see your value and ability! Hello for yourself! For the rest of the time, you better take care of my injuries. ”
After saying that, the emperor left.
Zhu Changan felt that this winter came so early and so cold.
The most relied on, trusted, and most important person around him in his previous life seemed to be gone.
It's a little harder......
A little tired......
On the other side, Cheng Ziyu and Li Chun walked side by side.
"What is the emperor looking for my grandfather to do?"
"Probably, I'm here to make up the dowry for you." Li Chun laughed, and lowered his voice in her ear: "I promised you to come back with more silver." I'm so angry with his son, he's always going to have to make amends......"
……
