Chapter 22 Killing Two Birds with One Stone

When everyone was in distress, a man dressed like a guard in armor came in and said, "Your Majesty, when the ministers were ordered to seal off the palace, they caught a maid and prepared to leave the excuse to get clean clothes for the second prince." The minister sensed that something was wrong, so he took her down and waited for His Majesty to send it. ”

Wen Mingshi breathed a sigh of relief, "That's the case, then the sons and ladies of the various families should step aside, come here, and escort Prince Xiao and the envoys of the Yan Kingdom away." ”

Xiao Junyu snorted coldly in his heart, don't think that he doesn't know what this old fox is planning, he hasn't figured out what he wants to know yet. But the emperor's eviction order had to be followed, after all, this truth is still understood in other people's territory.

Then he turned his head and left, but a strange look flashed in the eyes of the envoy of the Yan State who was silent, he never spoke and no one could even notice his existence, but he was silently observing everyone, especially when everyone was retreating, Wang Yue beside Wen Yunxiu had no intention of leaving, and even the emperor did not drive him away.

The corners of the mouth hooked up a good-looking arc, hehe, interesting.

After everyone left, the emperor opened his mouth and said to the woman who was kneeling and huddled in the main hall, "Say, who instructed you to poison the prince?"

Concubine Hui next to her exclaimed, "Your Majesty, this is the maid who came to the palace to bring sweet soup to the concubine that day."

Concubine Ya immediately knelt down, "Your Majesty, the concubine really doesn't know, this is indeed the concubine's maid" with a crying tone, she was really scared, she couldn't afford to murder the prince, besides, she still has Xiu'er, and she must not let Xiu'er be affected by her.

Wen Yunxiu also knelt down and arched his hand, "Father, the son guarantees with his life that the mother concubine will never do such a thing." ”

Wen Yue knew Wen Yunxiu's temperament, and besides, he promised her to do what she wanted. If so, then there is only ......

Wen Yue wanted to defend Wen Yunxiu, but was stopped by Wen Yunxiu, raised his eyes and saw that the queen mother was winking at her, making it clear that she would not let her stir the troubled waters, but she was even more convinced that Wen Yunxiu had nothing to do with this matter.

As we all know, her identity as a princess has nothing to do with the court's desire to fight, and she is extremely favored in front of the emperor, if she opens her mouth to defend herself, she can't say that she is completely exonerated for Wen Yunxiu, at least it will alleviate the emperor's suspicions.

But Wen Yunxiu stopped her, on the one hand, he didn't want Wen Yue to be affected by the forces that wanted to frame him, and on the other hand, he was a conspiracy to protect her from being involved in the court dispute too early.

"Say, who instructed you to confess that the mastermind behind you spared your dog's life."

The kneeling woman sneered, "Hehe, if I say it, I won't be alive tonight, it's because I can't get used to seeing the second prince want to poison, and no one instructs me" The woman was so faint, as if she had already put life and death aside, and she didn't panic and blindly begged for mercy, her expression was calm, like a trained dead soldier.

"Come on, drag it down, the punishment is waiting, if you can't ask, you come to see you" Wen Mingshi was a little angry at this time, he was no longer angry that someone poisoned the prince in front of him, but someone committed his taboo as a son of heaven.

As the Son of Heaven, the imperial power is inviolable, and the throne is not coveted by others.
