Chapter 383

When Wu Wanyi arrived at the palace, the emperor had not yet been able to convict the Xie family.

After all, the Xie family is the head of the four major families in the capital, and the Xie family is pervasive in all corners of the capital, if there is no conclusive evidence, rashly acting against the Xie family may cause an uproar in the capital.

And the Xie family did not admit guilt, and the evidence brought out by Long Jingyan and the Si family could not withstand the scrutiny of drug trafficking, and what made the emperor even more angry was that Prince An and Prince Rui didn't know which tendon was wrong, and they also helped the Xie family in and out of the words.

"Your Majesty, Princess Yu has arrived!" Just when the emperor was at a loss, Gonggong Gao came in and preached.

"Please let her in!" The emperor knows that Wu Wanyi hates the Xie family now, if she is given a chance, she will definitely bite the Xie family hard, no matter what, now that the matter has come out, she can't let the Xie family go. If you give them time to prepare, it will be difficult to deal with them yourself.

"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that this is an important matter in the court, and it is really unreasonable to let Princess Yu participate in this matter! I hope the emperor will think twice. "In the palace, there are not only a few princes, but also Taifu Taishi, Shangshu and his hundreds of civil and military officials. Hearing that the emperor was going to announce Wu Wanyi's entry into the palace, he immediately stood up against it.

"A few days ago, there was a commotion on the street, saying that Princess An was killed by Princess Yun in the palace of King Yu, and King An also sent people to surround the palace for a few days. Now that Princess An's body has been found in the Beijing suburb courtyard, then Princess Yu has nothing to do with this matter. The emperor said with a calm face, "I have brought the victim of this incident to hear her opinion, what is the discord?" ”

"Your Majesty, although Lord Yan found a body suspected to be Princess An in his house on the outskirts of Beijing, the face of the corpse is highly decomposed, and it is impossible to distinguish her identity, so it is difficult to say that she is not a trick." Lord Chen, the head of the household department, came out and said, "So Princess Yu can't rule out suspicion yet, and Weichen also feels that it is inconvenient to involve Princess Yun in this matter." ”

"Reconsideration!" The ministers in the palace were all very opposed to letting Wu Wanyi get involved.

The emperor is very troubled at the moment, it is really too constrained to be an emperor who does things according to the rules, if he is in a bad mood and is unwilling to listen to the advice of these courtiers, who dares to come out to oppose his proposal, this minister really has to inch in, and it will be too serious to give them a little face.

The emperor glanced at the ministers in the palace without saying a word, and before he could speak, Wu Wanyi had already been led into the house.

"Daughter-in-law Wanyi, knock on my father, long live my emperor, long live long live!" Wu Wanyi thought that she might see a lot of people today, so she rarely put on palace clothes, and her formal dress made the old stubborn resistance in the palace not so strong.

"Princess Yu, do you know what I called you here today?" The emperor asked.

"Back to my father, my daughter-in-law doesn't know." Wu Wanyi shook her head, even if the Xie family knelt aside, as long as the emperor didn't speak, she would pretend not to know.

"Today, your fourth emperor brother found a body suspected to be your second imperial sister-in-law in a courtyard on the outskirts of Beijing," the emperor did not blame Wu Wanyi's cleverness, "Your fourth emperor brother found out that the owner of this courtyard is owned by the Xie family, but the witness died of poison in prison." And although the corpse is undoubtedly your second sister-in-law from the perspective of dress, its face is already decomposed and cannot be distinguished. Before, your second emperor brother wronged you because of your second emperor's sister-in-law, so I think I should inform you about this matter. ”

"Thank you for your concern for your daughter-in-law!" Wu Wanyi was very moved and said, "It's just that how could the second imperial sister-in-law die?" Can my father be sure that the corpse is the second emperor's sister-in-law? ”

"Judging from the headdress she wore and the clothes on her body, they are the same as what your second emperor brother described when she disappeared." The emperor said in detail. I asked Wu Wanyi to use Princess An's matter to blame the Xie family, but I didn't expect her to become known to everyone the next day, and it didn't achieve the expected effect, so the emperor naturally wanted Wu Wanyi to remedy it.

"In that case, even if this corpse is not the second emperor's sister-in-law, it has nothing to do with the disappearance of the second emperor's sister-in-law." Wu Wanyi took out a handkerchief and pretended to wipe her eyes, "My daughter-in-law is saddened by what happened to the second emperor's sister-in-law. ”

"Your Majesty, forgive Weichen for being rude, Weichen is just puzzled by Princess Yu's words, just dressed similarly, why can she be sure that this corpse with a can't see the appearance is inseparable from Princess An's disappearance?" Old Master Xie questioned loudly, "Or does Princess Yu know all this, know where the corpse came from, and even more, it was Princess Yu who put the corpse in this courtyard?" ”

"Lord Xie's imagination is really admired, but Lord Xie, as the minister of the DPRK and China, must speak and act with a solid basis." Wu Wanyi replied calmly, the second imperial sister-in-law, as a first-class princess, has rules on dress, and her headdress is almost always recorded. Who in the whole world would dare to disregard respect and humility under the nose of the Son of Heaven and wear clothes and accessories that only the second emperor's sister-in-law can wear? Therefore, if this corpse is the second imperial sister-in-law, then she has unfortunately been killed, if not, then why did the clothes and accessories that originally belonged to her appear on this female corpse and are not much different from the dress of the second imperial sister-in-law when she left? Lord Xie, you said that Concubine Ben's judgment was wrong, so what do you explain to Concubine Ben's question just now? ”

Master Xie pursed his lips and lowered his head, Wu Wanyi's logic was impeccable, making him unable to refute.

"Seeing that you don't speak, you should agree with what the concubine said?" Wu Wanyi didn't seem to intend to let go of Master Xie, and kept asking him.

"Princess Yu is reasonable, but Weichen was confused before." Helpless, Master Xie could only respond.

The corners of Wu Wanyi's mouth curved, this weird smile inexplicably made the Xie family's father and son panic, and they kept thinking about whether Princess Yu had set a trap for them again.

"Father, daughter-in-law didn't expect that the second emperor's sister-in-law was really killed!" Wu Wanyi turned her head to look at the emperor, "The matter has come to this point, only by finding out the real murderer of the second emperor's sister-in-law can we let the second emperor's sister-in-law rest in peace." The daughter-in-law begged her father to find out the real culprit, and also cleared up the grievances suffered by the daughter-in-law during this time. ”

"Princess Yu, don't you know, this king has found the murderer of the second emperor's sister-in-law, but the murderer denies it alive and dead." Long Jingyan suddenly interjected, he saw that the conversation between the emperor and Wu Wanyi was very abnormal, and from his understanding of the emperor, he suddenly understood something.

"Fourth Emperor Brother, doesn't the fact that the murderer can deny it mean that the evidence you are looking for is not sufficient?" Wu Wanyi smiled, "The wild goose has left traces, it is impossible for the second emperor's sister-in-law to be killed without leaving any traces, as long as we start from the source of the corpse, arrest all the suspects and examine them strictly, we will always find clues." ”
