The next day's court meeting kicked off with the Wei family's impeachment of King Su for disregarding brotherhood and filial piety and murdering King Xiang.

The Su family faction led by Qiu Shuxia naturally denied it: "His Royal Highness King Su and His Royal Highness King Xiang used to be blood brothers, and now they are cousins, they have both blood friendship and no grievances near and far, and Princess Xiang and Princess Su are cousins, and they are closer than other brothers, why would His Royal Highness King Su murder His Royal Highness King Xiang?" This is simply Assassin nonsense intended to provoke cannibalism between the royal siblings! ”

Qiu Shuxia said, "This case was handled by Gu Gong himself at that time, it is true that Gu Gong is famous all over the world, and the city government is very accessible in terms of vision!" But there is a way that people are not sages, who can be without fault? The disciple who was personally raised by Gu Gong, He Lou Duhan, isn't it an example? Gu Gongneng was wrong once on the issue of He Lou Duhan, but he knew that he couldn't be wrong again in this case? ”

Saying this, the Wei family was so angry that they almost wanted to vomit blood, and Wei Xi Tie came out in person with a blushing face: "Qiu Shilang is eloquent!" However, the assassination of the dignified prince is not an inconsequential trivial matter, how can you say whatever you want?! ”

He sneered, "Could it be that Qiu Shilang has been handling cases like this since he went to the Criminal Department?!" No wonder after the assassination of His Royal Highness King Xiang, Gu Gong couldn't rest assured that you, the servant of the Criminal Department, had to go out in person! ”

"The Criminal Department's judgment is naturally based on evidence!" Qiu Shuxia said hesitantly, "The question is, which of the so-called evidence in this case can withstand scrutiny?" Just based on the words of an assassin, you have to punish the sins of the prince, is there such a reversal of dignity and humility in the world?! ”

He squinted at Wei Xi, "If a rural village woman pops up another day, and says on the street that Wei Shangshu has been messy and abandoned, shouldn't my criminal department immediately take Shang you to prison without saying a word?!" ”

He also said, "What's more, His Royal Highness King Su has no reason to assassinate His Royal Highness King Xiang, but the one who only regained the prince yesterday, since he poisoned His Royal Highness King Xiang's father-in-law and aunt earlier, do you know that he will continue to poison King Xiang and his wife with the purpose of cutting grass and eradicating the roots?!" Fortunately, God is pitiful, King Xiang survived - so if Zongzheng Temple wants to take people for this, then the master who has only recovered the prince should also go to prison to give a good explanation, how many hands and feet has he used His Majesty's trust and ignorance over the years? ! ”

What he said was obviously to link the assassination of King Xiang with the resumption of King Liang!

Wei Xi naturally couldn't let him get his wish, so he said immediately: "After He Lou Duhan assassinated the prince before, he didn't mention Gu Gong for a half, but Gu Gong still ignored his high position and power, and was the pillar of the country, so he immediately tied himself up and took the initiative to go to prison, according to the national law!" So far, people are in the edict prison, showing the law of the emperor! And the assassination of King Xiang was even before the assassination of the prince, the assassin clearly said that he was ordered by King Su, and yesterday Zong Zheng Shaoqing went to King Su's mansion to get people, but he was still blocked - as the old saying goes, the prince broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people! ”

"King Su is so contemptuous of the laws and regulations of the country, he is simply taking "Da Rui Law" as a child's play!"

"In terms of the eldest and youngest, Gu Gongnian is over the sixtieth year, but King Su is not as good as Double Ten;"

"In terms of dignity and humility, Gu Gong is the teacher of the prince and the prime minister of the country, no matter the grade or status, he is not under the prince of King Su!"

"On the country and the people, Gu Gong was entrusted by the first emperor to assist His Majesty, since he was the prime minister, he has been conscientious and conscientious, and he has been sleeping at night, Da Rui has been prosperous and prosperous, and Gu Xiang has made great contributions!"

"And what about His Royal Highness King Su? In addition to the first emperor of Tuoti and the king of Cheng'en Suhui, what credit does he have for the country? What credit goes to the people? ”

"As a child of the clan, King Su has been born so far, enjoying all the world's Li Shu offerings, all day long, not thinking of contributing to the country and the people, but treating the national law as nothing, arrogant, arrogant, and rude...... It's simply a shame for the royal family and the scum of the clan! ”

"Gu Gong is old and has a high position, and he has made contributions to the country and the people, but he doesn't dare to be ashamed of himself and violate the law and discipline!"

"On the contrary, King Su is young, and he has no contribution to the national community, and he actually regards the law and morality as nothing!"

"What kind of system is this?!"

"According to this official, not only should he be immediately imprisoned to strictly investigate how he instructed the assassin to assassinate King Xiang, but also depose his royal title, so as to show the majesty of the law and the majesty of the criminal law!"

The two sides fought with each other, you came and went, quarreling from morning to evening - not even eating lunch in the middle - and finally seeing that it was getting late and the palace gate was about to close, this was a temporary truce.

Of course, the result of this day's quarrel was not very satisfactory to both parties: the Su family did not agree to let King Su go to prison, let alone cut off King Su's title, but the Wei family brought up the example of Gu Shao taking the initiative to go to prison, and insisted that King Su respect the law of the country and not do anything that would embarrass the children of the royal family!

In the end, the result of the two sides compromised step by step was:

From now on, King Su will be grounded in the Su Palace, and will be interrogated by Zongzheng Temple and related people at any time until it is proved that he has nothing to do with the assassination of King Xiang, and then he can resume his free movement.

In exchange for the Wei family's concessions, the Su family agreed to Lu Hehao's restoration of the prince, and promised not to make a fuss about this matter in the future - of course, he just didn't mention it in the court, as for private, will the Su family admit it?

"No way, this matter is Gu Shao's handiwork, His Royal Highness King Su has not come back before, we have sent people to contact King Xiang many times, but King Xiang has never meant to cooperate." After the dispersal of the dynasty, Qiu Shuxia came to the Jihou Mansion as usual to report and ask questions, and complained very much that this time the concession to the Wei family was too big, Su Bofeng explained to him, "According to our people's observations, King Xiang may not be unmoved by the price we offered, but the handle he gave to Gu Shao was too big, so he didn't dare to disobey Gu Shao." ”

"It is estimated that King Xiang will regret it very much!" Qiu Shuxia snorted, "At that time, he thought that Duanhua Xiao'er had already won, right?" ”

Otherwise, how could King Xiang cooperate with Gu Shao to pit the King of Pit Su?

Who knew that the situation was changing so quickly, King Xiang had just surrendered to Emperor Duanhua a few days ago, and there was a thunderstorm on the Holy Birthday Festival, and Emperor Duanhua himself fell into a situation of disrepute, but it was King Su who went around and around, and regained the hope of practicing Zuo!

King Xiang's current mood can be imagined!

Qiu Shuxia stroked the short hair under her chin, rolled her eyes, and said, "Princess Xiang is the sister of the Marquis of Fuyang, isn't the Marquis of Fuyang also on the side of His Royal Highness King Su now?" I wonder if I can start here? ”

King Xiang was pinched to death by Gu Shao and had no way to fight back, so he simply gave up on him and let him die.

"I've tried." Su Shaoge said, "However, although Princess Xiang married His Royal Highness King Xiang because of the love of the sword, Xu is because the couple already has a daughter, Princess Xiang has no intention of being a widow, but effectively imitates the meaning of Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of the country." Fuyang Hou repeatedly. I wrote to persuade Princess Xiang to never waver - Marquis Fuyang could only beg me privately that when His Royal Highness King Su ascended the throne in the future, I would be able to save King Xiang's life. ”

Qiu Shuxia patted her forehead and didn't continue the topic: "Now that Lu Hehao has restored the title of King Liang, he can go to the court to discuss matters openly!" However, King Su was placed under house arrest in King Su's mansion, saying that he could be restored if he found out. But how could the Wei family really return his innocence? Even if you can't convict King Su and don't let him come out for a long time, what should you do? ”

"Why should Yun Ran be so worried?" Yun Ran is Qiu Shuxia's word, Su Shaoge smiled indifferently, and said, "Although King Su is temporarily grounded in the mansion, how can Lu Hehao be an invulnerable saint?" ”

He pointed in a certain direction, "Since the death of Sikong's mother and son, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of Zhenyang has been weeping day and night, and she feels sorry for the death of her granddaughter and great-grandson all day long!" There is also Fuyang Hou, who is the son of man, and it is a matter of course to complain for his parents! ”

Su Shaoge's tone was playful, "Lu Hehao can go to court openly...... So what? ”

If it weren't for the backhand, how could the Su family instruct Qiu Shuxia to make concessions on the issue of Lu Hehao's restoration of the prince?

Another day - this day was not supposed to be a day of rest, but Baiguan was given a day off: this day was the period of descent of the eldest princess of Changxing.

Although the thoughts of the former harem during this period of time were all focused on the battle for the throne, the eldest princess descended, and the scene still had to be taken into account.

In fact, the palace began to put up lights a few days ago to prepare for the eldest princess's wedding.

And Concubine Xue of Qibao Palace has long been removed from the palace for disposal, so as not to collide with the joy of the eldest princess.

Because of the fact that Xue Concubine and the palace maid complained to the Huiyi Palace, although Empress Wei did not say anything to reprimand He Xiuyi, but after He Xiuyi guarded the spirit of Xue Concubine for one night, she remembered this matter, and still called the people in the palace to the main hall and beat it hard, and there were a few palace people who were usually slack in doing things - He Xiuyi was held all the way after entering the palace because she took advantage of the light of her background, and no one dared to fool her, so she did not particularly stand up.

Now that the color is so given, the palace people have a little bit of spirit, at least it looks very regular.

As for whether they will do similar things in private, He Xiuyi has no bottom in his heart, so he can only secretly pray that the dust will settle as soon as the battle for the throne is settled - otherwise, it will be a torment to hang up and down like this.

"Isn't Niangniang going to Huiyi Palace?" Xu was because of the spirit of Concubine Xue, Tian Baolin and the other three, who had obviously alienated He Xiuyi, have become close to her again in the past two days.

And there is a little less perfunctory and flattering in the past, and a little more sympathy, but it is a bit like their friendship in the boudoir in the past, more or less mixed with sincerity.

This morning, Tian Baolin changed into a more colorful dress, came to the main hall to greet He Xiuyi, and saw that He Xiuyi was still wearing a moon white palace dress, and asked in surprise, "Or are you going to wear this to Her Royal Highness Princess He?" That's not a good fit, is it? ”

He Xiuyi shook his head and said, "The wedding was held at dusk, and there is still some time for this!" I'll go back later! ”

Tian Baolin said with some envy: "Also, the eldest princess who descended this time is Niangniang's maiden uncle, presumably it doesn't matter if you go late." ”

"Where am I going to go later because I am afraid of my mother's house?" He Xiuyi sighed when she heard this, let the left and right retreat, and then whispered, "We are all living under the hands of the queen now!" Two days ago, because of Sister Xue's affair with the palace maid, although the queen didn't blame me for anything, how could she not feel that I was not angry? At this time, if I go to Huiyi Palace early in the morning to offer courtesy, what will you think if you say that the queen mother knows? ”

Stretched out his fingers and rubbed the corners of his forehead, "So, I can only go later-there is a way that the county official is not as good as the current management, isn't it?" ”

Tian Baolin smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "Niangniang can still go to congratulate her, but we don't even have the qualifications to go to Huiyi Palace." ”

In fact, the eldest princess of Changxing is a sister of the eldest princess of Yushan, and when she puts on makeup, it is inevitably deserted.

The problem is that the Su family and the Empress Dowager Su were worried that the Wei family would do something at the wedding, so the Empress Dowager Su told Empress Wei in advance under the pretext of Xue Concubine's death that those who had guarded Xue Concubine's spirit should not go to Huiyi Palace, so as not to collide with the wedding.

He Xiuyi can make an exception, or Empress Wei helped her speak, how can there be a reason for an aunt to dislike her husband and niece?

Now seeing Tian Baolin mention this, He Xiuyi said that she actually had to go, but she knew that saying this would inevitably hurt a little, so she hurriedly changed the topic: "It's been snowing all the time in the past two days, and it's weirdly cold!" Even if the earth dragon is burned in the palace, it is so boring to stay in the house all the time! Catch up with Ming'er and ask Sister Zhong and Sister Jiang to come over, how about we get a pot to eat? ”

Tian Baolin hadn't answered yet, but a palace maid came in to tell her, saying, "Zhong Meiren and Jiang Cairen are here, and they are asking to see them outside the palace!" ”
