Chapter 495: Pure and Virtuous
Zong Zhengxuan frowned, and waved his long sleeves and said, "Xuan Lao Wu-"
After touching a cup of tea, Zong Zhengziyan came to meet him.
Zong Zhengxuan coldly swept Zong Zhengziyan's face, with a bit of sternness on his face, and said fiercely: "Old Five, I ask you, do you know the inside story of Wei Nan's death?!"
Zong Zhengziyan's brown eyes moved slightly, and then he lowered his head and did not make a sound.
Zong Zhengxuan thought he was acquiescing, and was so angry that he poured a full cup of tea straight into his face!
"Your Majesty, stopβ"
Concubine De let out a low voice, hurriedly stepped forward, protected Zong Zhengzi Yan behind her, and then pulled him to kneel in front of Zong Zhengxuan, "A while ago, Yan'er was busy inspecting Jiangyin, how could she have time to take care of Wei Nan's affairs?" Please Your Majesty, Yan'er will never know about this matter! β
"Don't know?!" Zong Zhengxuan scolded, "It's the secret guard next to him who committed the crime, can he still not know?!" β
Concubine De glanced at Baili Guyan coldly, raised her voice and said, "Your Majesty only thinks that your son is guilty based on the words of a girl, is this too hasty?!" Yan'er was cultivated by you, what kind of character is he, Your Majesty, don't you know? β
Concubine De looked at Zong Zhengxuan with burning eyes, and suddenly said emotionally: "Your Majesty, if you don't remember, let the concubine remind you." You once said that Yan'er has a generous temperament, not as strong as a concubine, but more like the eldest grandson queen. How could a person as pure and virtuous as Empress Changsun commit such an absurd and cruel act?! β
Baili Guyan frowned, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Good for you, Concubine De, you actually know how to use the eldest grandson queen as a shield!
Empress Changsun was deeply favored, and after she passed away, Zong Zhengxuan never forgot her for a long time.
When Zong Zhengxuan heard the name of Empress Changsun, he couldn't help but say, "Perhaps, I was too hasty." β
He saw that Zong Zheng Ziyan was splashed with tea all over his face, and he couldn't bear it, so he hurriedly said: "Gonggong Li, take a handkerchief to the fifth child and let him wipe his face." β
"Yes."
Seeing that Zong Zhengxuan was moved, Concubine De hurriedly pulled Zong Zhengziyan to stand up.
Zong Zheng Ziyan didn't say a word from beginning to end.
He just glanced at Baili Guyan faintly, and his heart was cold to the bone. He knows that there is no airtight wall in this world, and what he has done will always need to be borne by himself one day, but he didn't expect that the person who wants to confront him in front of his father today is not someone else, but his most beloved woman!
"Your Majesty," Concubine De raised her head and looked at Shangzong Zhengxuan, "The concubine learned about Cangya's murder and has sent someone to arrest her overnight, and now Cangya has been arrested and is waiting outside." β
"Oh?" Zong Zhengxuan was slightly stunned, and then immediately rushed at Gonggong Li, "Bring it up!" β
At this moment, Cangya was covered with hemp ropes and thorns, and was dragged to Zong Zhengxuan.
Baili Guyan glanced at his back, and his back was densely covered with whip marks and bloodstains, and anyone with a discerning eye could see at a glance that he had just been tortured to extract a confession! Baili Guyan couldn't help but sigh: Concubine De, Concubine De, you are really ruthless! Whether it's an enemy or your own people, as long as it's someone who will threaten you, you probably won't leave any of them?!
"Your Majesty, the concubine has interrogated Cangya overnight, it turns out that as early as a month ago, Gongzi Wei had a verbal conflict with Cangya's parents, and accidentally injured his parents, Cangya couldn't be angry, that's right-"
