Chapter 238: The Last Struggle Before Dying
"Chenjun Xie? Confirmed? Empress Li frowned, as if she couldn't believe it.
"Yes." Xiuyan nodded and confirmed, "I found the tokens on those people, and there is no doubt that they are the secret guards of the Xie family." ”
"What kind of token?"
"It's a piece of black jade, hidden in the hair, and there is the word 'Xie' made of gold dust inside." Xiuyan said, pausing, "And after this jade is warmed up, another word 'Sun' will appear." ”
"Sun, Xie?" Empress Li narrowed her eyes slightly, and suddenly gave an order, "Go and check, which people with the surname Sun are among the people in the position of the master of the Xie family!" ”
The embroidered goose was clear, bowed and retreated.
"No matter who it is, they can't escape the Xie family." Li tilted his head, squinted slightly, and the essence light that burst out of his eyebrows seemed to be able to penetrate the roof and shoot directly into the sky, "I didn't expect that the Xie family would actually get involved!" ”
"When the princess went to Huangzhao Temple, she was assassinated by Xie Yan inexplicably, and later Xie Yan was stabbed to death by the princess, I am afraid that at that time, the Xie family hated the princess, and also hated the eldest son who protected the princess." As he spoke, he waited for Li Hou to lie down.
Speaking of Li Shouzhen, Empress Li sighed faintly: "Among these children of the Li family, they are the most popular in the constitution, but now they are ......."
"Mother's Day, the eldest prince is good, but it's not as good as our Royal Highness the Prince? No matter how good the eldest prince is, he can't compare with the prince of a country. Now the matter in front of us is aimed at the Wen family, and it is not good for our Highness......" Saying this, the weaving duck suddenly lowered his voice, "The Wen family treats us without two hearts, should this move really be abandoned?" ”
"No two hearts?" Empress Li's voice suddenly rose, "The one who has no two hearts is Wen Hai in the Wen family's room and the second room, Wen Hai is dead now, that Wen Chun is useless, look at that Wen Qing, where is he who has no two hearts?" ”
Empress Li paused, and then said: "If the second room is still Wen Hai's house, maybe today's incident will be avoided, in the end, the Wen family's second room is still too stupid, even if it is abandoned?" By the way, get rid of a warm Qing, you can't use it, and it's a disaster to keep it! ”
"Then why didn't Niangniang tell His Royal Highness the Crown Prince directly?"
"I told him? Doesn't he have a brain and can't think for himself? Empress Li glanced at the weaving mandarin duck, and the red lips of Zhu hooked a disdainful arc, "This matter is widely implicated, and several major families are involved. If his mind can't think clearly of the stakes in this rash move, I'll see how long he can sit for the position of prince! ”
Weaving Mandarin was shocked, I don't know why the mother who has always been calm is so impetuous now. Is it because ...... Did the Wang family feel pressured when they entered Beijing?
Three days later, the trial of the three halls ended, and Wen Yao's father and son were summoned again in the court.
Emperor Tianlong flipped through the charges handed over by the Criminal Department, and said: "Since your father and son have confessed, tell me, why do you want to collude with Beirong, do you think I have treated you badly?" ”
Taiyuan Wen's honorary title of "Imperial Merchant", how dare to say that Emperor Tianlong treated them badly? hurriedly said that he didn't dare. Wen Yao's haggard face was full of decadence because of the torture in the past few days, and he kowtowed to Emperor Tianlong, and said in a lamented voice: "Emperor Mingjian, my Wen family is now taking the blame for others!" ”
As soon as Wen Yao's words came out, the audience was in an uproar, and even the officials of the Criminal Department and Dali Temple were confused, and they didn't understand why Wen Yao came to say such a sentence now.
"Who are you taking responsibility for?" Emperor Tianlong narrowed his eyes and spoke in a deep voice.
Wen Chun pursed her lips, and a fierce look flashed in her eyes: "Second Miss Taiyuan Wang, Huaxi Yan!" ”
Everyone was silent, and then exploded again, people never thought that the Wen family was actually taking the blame for a woman! It's still a girl from a rival family!
"Send someone to pass the royal family into the palace, including this second young lady!" Emperor Tianlong gave an order to the inner servants beside him.
Coincidentally, the one sent to the palace this time was the father-in-law who went to the palace last time to pass the marriage decree to Hua Xiyan, thinking of Miss Wang's fierceness and courage to disobey the holy decree, he still had some palpitations.
Fortunately, Hua Xiyan didn't embarrass him this time, as if he had expected it, and followed him into the palace with a smile.
The officials above the court have also heard a lot about this second lady Wang, and originally thought that a woman who came out of the county order family would definitely not be able to make a big scene, but the gentle smile in front of her, the arrogant figure, and the graceful figure of the advance and retreat made the "self-thought" in their hearts a joke.
"The courtiers have seen the emperor!" Hua Xiyan followed behind Wang Yao, walked to the center of the Jinluan Palace, Ying Ying bowed down, and bowed his head slightly, without glancing at Wen Yao on his side.
Emperor Tianlong asked the group to get up, and asked straight to the point at Hua Xiyan: "Wang family girl, Wen Chun said that he was taking the blame for you, what do you say?" ”
The civil and military officials were all shocked, not because of anything else, but because of the attitude of Emperor Tianlong. The intimacy in this "Wang Family Girl" is self-evident, coupled with the boiling disobedience to the holy decree that was passed before, people know that the status of this young lady of the Wang family in the emperor's heart is not the same. So looking at Hua Xiyan's expression, he involuntarily became subtle.
In fact, Emperor Tianlong didn't know what was going on with him, and when he saw Hua Xiyan's name, he naturally said it, as if they should have known each other very well.
Hua Xiyan didn't care what everyone thought, he opened his mouth, and his light and pleasant voice resounded in every corner of the Jinluan Palace: "The courtiers also want to know how the Wen family took the blame for the courtiers!" ”
With the approval of Emperor Tianlong, Wen Chun looked at Hua Xiyan and said: "When this dart game was taken over from the Wang family, Miss Wang Er asked the grass people to agree to a condition. Later, Miss Wang Er found the grass people and asked the grass people to help transport a batch of goods, and said that as long as it was handed over to the Langya Wang family, there would be no mistakes in the middle. Caomin is a businessman, and he knows the credibility of the industry the most, so he took a huge risk to transport this batch of goods. ”
"Then do you know that the thing you're going to ship is a weapon?" Emperor Tianlong's expression did not change, and everyone was a little unsure for a while whether the emperor believed or disbelieved Wen Chun's words.
"The grass people know." Wen Chun replied without hesitation, if he didn't know it at this time, he would really fool the emperor, and then spoke, "Because these weapons are the same as sand, the grass people will be transported to the northeast to strengthen the border defense, and the Wang family has been loyal for generations, and they will definitely not do anything that damages the body of the Holy Heavenly Kingdom, so the grass people are silent." ”
Many people have begun to be suspicious, and the eyes of the Wang family are a little more strange, but they have a little more appreciation for Wen Chun, and at this time, they have not forgotten to praise the opponent, and this bearing is worthy of praise.
Huaxi Yanling's lips hooked slightly, and he listened carefully to Wen Chun's rambling lies.
"There is no basis for the words, but there is evidence?" This time it was not Emperor Tianlong who spoke, but the upright Dali Siqing.
A flash of remorse flashed on Wen Chun's face, and he said in a deep voice: "This matter is not suitable for the business world to be said in the open, so there is no evidence in black and white." But the grass people have a thing, which is a token given to the grass people by Miss Wang Er at that time. ”
Even the tokens were pulled out? Hua Xiyan pouted, she didn't remember what she had given Wen Chun. But when he saw the thing in Wen Chun's hand, his entire facial expression stiffened.
It was a hairpin, a white jade hairpin, the color was not very good, and the workmanship was not necessarily very good. But Hua Xiyan remembered it clearly, it was indeed hers.
On the way to Taiyuan, she went to find the thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, and at the top of Luliang Mountain, Yun Qi pulled her hair for the first time, and then replaced her original hosta and gave her another one. He also told himself that the original hairpin was thrown away, why is it in Wen Chun's hands now?
Jewelry is an extremely precious thing for women, and under normal circumstances, it must not be lost, otherwise it will not only be a matter of reputation. Emperor Tianlong looked at the hairpin, there was a word "Hua" at the end, and there was a wisp of green smoke, and he knew that this was indeed the hairpin of Huaxi Yan.
Originally, the people who were just skeptical had already believed Wen Chun's words, believing that he was giving Huaxi a sin for his crimes. An official couldn't help but come out and ask, "In that case, why didn't you say it during the three-hall trial?" ”
Wen Yao sighed in a mournful voice: "My lord doesn't know, where is the prison of the Criminal Department where people stay?" If we hadn't confessed our sins, I'm afraid we wouldn't even have the life to go to this Jinluan Hall and tell the truth! ”
With that, Wen Yao lifted his sleeves and revealed the scars on his arms. The people present were all clear-eyed people, and they could see at a glance that the scars were all new.
"Wang girl, is this your hairpin?" Although there was already an answer, Emperor Tianlong still gave Hua Xiyan a chance to plead.
Hua Xiyan was unheard, standing in place in a daze, with only the shadow of a hairpin in his empty eyes. She didn't intend to answer Emperor Tianlong's words, but just thought about why the hairpin that Yun Qi took suddenly ended up in Wen Chun's hands?
Thinking about it, a bright light crossed his mind, and the question that he had been searching for but couldn't solve suddenly had an answer, and many puzzles accompanied by this hairpin and cleared the clouds, and there was a most reasonable explanation.
It's just that what you see when you open the clouds and mist is not the light of the scorching warm sun, but an empty black hole, a dark night that makes people tremble and feel worried.
Fortunately, Hua Xiyan has figured out more and more things in the past few days, so some seemingly cruel answers are no longer so unacceptable, and her heart has become so strong that even she can't help but admire it.
I still want to be thankful, thanks to Yun Qi's successive surprises to himself recently.
A bitter smile flashed on Hua Xiyan's face, replaced by a calm and unhurried wave, she looked at Wen Chun with an attitude of insight into everything, watching his last struggle before dying, looking forward to his gradual change from hope to despair.
Against the opponent, she gave him enough chances. Hua Xiyan suddenly felt that he was so kind.
So, this time, Wen Chun, it's not me who is ruthless, it's you who killed yourself.
