Early the next morning, as usual at the entrance of the Dali Temple, a dense crowd gathered early.

The people watching today are the same as yesterday. In yesterday's case trial, it was not until the verdict was pronounced that Xia Wenxuan stood up and revealed a little clue about the case. When Lord Duan was about to interrogate Xia Wenxuan in detail, Xia Wenxuan unexpectedly fainted. Lord Duan had no choice but to announce his retirement and retry at a later date.

The people thought that the case would be delayed for a long time before it was heard, but who knew that Dali Temple had posted a notice in the evening of the same day and would open for trial in the near future. Tsk, this is okay with speed.

This efficiency, the people don't dare to compliment. The case went through several trials, each time with new witness statements, but they were not successfully overturned due to insufficient evidence. The people are slandering in their hearts and believe that this case is unsolved.

At first, the people were very concerned about the case with a curious mentality, but then they were disappointed many times, and gradually stopped looking forward to it. Fortunately, the clouds are light and the wind is light today, the weather is very good, and there are really a lot of onlookers.

No matter how many people are watching, how should Duan Zisheng of Dali Temple try the case, or how to try the case. He even hoped that the fewer people who came to watch the better, so that it would be easier for the officials of Dali Temple to maintain order.

On the public court, Duan Zisheng of Dali Temple was already sitting at the table in the public court before the time for the trial of the case. He didn't look very good, presumably because he hadn't slept well last night. Shaoqing of Dali Temple, who was sitting next to him, was white, and his dark circles could be clearly seen.

Although Xia Wenxuan has promised to testify in court and expose the truth, Duan Zisheng of Dali Temple is still faintly worried about this case. He was afraid that Xia Wenxuan would regret it temporarily, that there would be an emergency in the case, and that Xiangye would refuse to admit his guilt.

This case caused a sensation, and the people of the Great Western Kingdom paid attention to this case, as well as the officials of the Manchu Dynasty, as well as the current saints. Dali Siqing Duan Zisheng was the chief judge of this case, and the pressure was great.

Today's trial is very important, if he doesn't handle the case well today, I'm afraid he really has no shame to face the people of the world, the courtiers, and even more so the emperor, so he has to take the blame and resign.

The onlookers looked inside, and the decorations in the public hall, the queue of officials and officials, and the observers in the hall were basically the same as those who were present yesterday.

Among the people in the court, the most obvious surprise is probably Xiangye. Relatively speaking, Sun Shan's sense of presence is very low. Dressed in a prison uniform, he stood next to Xiangye, watching him shrink.

As a family member of the victim yesterday, Xiangye sat on a stool in a brocade dress, quite majestic and magnificent, and even Duan Zisheng gave him three points of courtesy. Unexpectedly, today he has become a suspect ready to be tried.

Xiangye was wearing a prison uniform, his hair was a little messy, and he stood alone in the public court, without the anger of the past. He was probably in the prison last night, tossed and turned all night without sleeping, and looked haggard.

This is different from Chu Tiankuo, Chi Le, and Fang Hongyi, who are also suspects. Although the three of them are suspects and have lived in the prison for a while, they are not as depressed and embarrassed as Xiangye only lives in the prison for one day.

In the final analysis, it is Xiangye who is a thief. I have done too many bad things on weekdays, and I can deceive others, but I can't deceive myself. He knew what he had done, but he didn't know what he had done to his daughter Xia Wenxuan.

Just now, when the official took Xiangye to the court, he glanced at the hall and searched for his daughter Xia Wenxuan. However, he did not see his daughter Xia Wenxuan.

At this moment, he has been praying in his heart that his daughter Xia Wenxuan will not be hot-headed and turn her elbow outward. She must not come forward to testify against him, he doesn't want the father and daughter to turn against each other.

Even at this moment, Xiang Ye is still thinking about how to quibble and how to get away with it, and how he should deal with it once his daughter testifies against him in court. He certainly wasn't going to sit still.

In the hall, Chu Tiankuo's eyes sharpened to see Yanxiang and Dongfanghong standing together, and the two whispered and chuckled, looking extremely affectionate.

His face sank, his eyes darkened a lot, and his heart was sour.

Yesterday, he specially told her not to get close to Dongfang Hong. Did she deliberately go against him?

Admittedly, the incense was deliberate. Because yesterday the senior brother said that he wanted to give the water vein a name. Because of this sentence, she has been entangled, it is lying in bed at night tossing and turning and unable to sleep, and she does not fall asleep until it is very late at night.

When she woke up in the morning, she was still glad that she would not have trouble sleeping, but finally fell asleep. No matter how late she fell asleep, she did, didn't she?

No matter who the senior brother wants to marry, she can still live and will not abuse herself because of him. She won't be unable to live without him.

Yanxiang deliberately whispered to Dongfang Hong in front of the senior brother, just to provoke the vinegar of the senior brother. She wanted him to understand that the situation of him and Sister Shuimai was similar to that of her and Dongfanghong. If he can marry Shui Mai to sleep, then she can also marry Dongfang Hong.

She also knew that her ideas were unconventional and bizarre. Polygamy is widely practiced in the Great Western Country. Not to mention that the prince and grandson can have a group of wives and concubines, even ordinary people can marry three wives and four concubines as long as they are a little richer. What's more, the eldest brother is the crown prince, and a group of wives and concubines is unavoidable.

However, she did not want to be one of the many wives and concubines of the elder brother; She didn't want to compete with other women for favor; He didn't want to share his love with others.

She will either give up being with him or become his only one. However, this is simply not possible. I'm afraid she'll be ridiculed if she says what she thinks. Unless the senior brother himself is willing, otherwise, how can she force him to marry only one of her?

She knew that the senior brother would definitely marry her, but he didn't dare to promise that he wouldn't marry someone else. Once he marries Sister Shuimai, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not marry another woman in the future. As soon as this gap is opened, I am afraid that I will not be able to hold it.

Yanxiang deliberately became hot with Dongfang Hong, and only secretly looked at the actions of the senior brother with the corner of his eye. She peeked at a look of forbearance on his handsome face, and she seemed to penetrate his mind, sensing that he was secretly turbulent inside.

However, she deliberately didn't look at the senior brother, he was still so dazzling, and he was surrounded by the loving eyes of other women. For example, Sister Shuimai, her gaze kept rolling around him.

Smoke Xiang has thought sadly, what is the point of her struggle?

Presumably, how many women in the world are looking forward to being concubines for their senior brothers. I'm afraid that even if some women can't be concubines, they are willing to be maids for him. How many women burn high incense every day in order to win his favor. She is the object of many women's aspirations, admiration, and even envy.

However, she was still struggling with whether he would marry one or two.

If he really had to marry Sister Shuimai for some reason, would she really abandon him? She didn't know, her heart was so messy.

Inadvertently, Yanxiang's gaze met the gaze of the senior brother. He sent a message to her with his eyes: Come here.

Of course, the smoke is understandable, but she pretends not to understand. She winked at him, her eyes full of confusion.

Chu Tiankuo had no choice but to make concessions. He coughed dryly, drawing the attention of the cigarette and beckoned to her with a Qingyun fan.

Yanxiang whispered a few words to Dongfang Hong and walked over to the senior brother. She realized a truth herself, don't be too emotional. Stimulate the other party appropriately, and be relaxed to a certain extent.

A little stimulation of the senior brother can arouse his jealousy, if it is overstimulated, I am afraid it will backfire. At that time, I am afraid that it will not be jealousy, but anger. Vinegar can make love sweeter. When anger accumulates to a certain extent, it will explode, and then it will hurt people.

Besides, anger will inevitably lead to quarrels, and quarrels will hurt feelings. She didn't want to really push him elsewhere.

To use an apt analogy, it's like flying a kite with a string in your hand, and you have to retract it freely.

"Disobedient." When the smoke was close to Chu Tiankuo, Chu Tiankuo lowered his voice and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Wait and see how I clean you up!" ”

Yan Xiang knew that he was full of vinegar and was content. She grinned, and her voice was as thin as a mosquito: "Is it the implementation of yesterday's family law again?" ”

Naturally, others couldn't hear the conversation between the two of them clearly, but Chu Tiankuo had always been deaf and clear-sighted.

Family law? The smoke is really playful and cute.

Chu Tiankuo was amused by the fresh metaphor of the incense of smoke. The jealousy that sprouted just now because of her intimate behavior with Dongfang Hong disappeared all of a sudden. He was not a scheming person, and no one could make him jealous except for cigarettes.

He thought about it for a moment, could she be trying to exchange this for yesterday's family service?

"You're thinking too much." Chu Tiankuo's face turned red inexplicably, and he said softly: "You, you just don't have a long memory. ”

With the smoke of a on his face, he whispered: "Then are you serving the family law again?" ”

Chu Tiankuo was speechless.

Thinking of the crazy behavior of the two in the room yesterday, both of them felt ripples in their hearts.

Shui Mai's gaze was not far from Chu Tiankuo, and when he saw him and Yanxiang looking like each other, a trace of bitterness surged in his heart.

Dongfang Red is also felt like a vein of water.

Fortunately, this leisure time did not last long.

Duan Zisheng of Dali Temple glanced at the hourglass, picked up the shocking wood on the table, and slapped it vigorously: "Ascend to the hall!" ”

The two rows of officials standing upright raised the killing stick in their hands and struck the ground hard, making a rhythmic sound. The mouth shouted in unison: "Mighty! ”

This is the official ascension.

In the first year of Xingde, Hong Gaode proclaimed himself emperor, established the Great Western Kingdom, and set the capital of Fengcheng. In the early days of the establishment of the regime, the surrounding countries were eyeing the Great Western Kingdom and provoked wars for no reason. Before the expedition, Xu Guifei, the mother of Xigong, was 8 months pregnant. The emperor proposed an edict, if the prince was born, he would be named Hong Chengye, and the prince would be established, and if he was born a princess, he would be crowned Princess Changyu.

After Emperor Hong left the palace, Queen Xia made a plan to let Xu Guifei slip the fetus, who knows, the sky did not fulfill her wish, and the fetus in Xu Guifei's womb was born, and it actually survived.

"Your Majesty has already doted on Concubine Xu, and now, she has given birth to a prince again, and I see that our master and queen throne will not be able to be kept."

"Isn't it? Listening to the palace maid in the West Palace, the prince was born white and fat, very cute, his face resembled His Majesty, there was a righteousness between his eyebrows, and he must be a good emperor when he grows up. ”

This is the little palace maid in the queen's palace whispering in private.

Even if they don't talk about it, the Empress Xia knows that if she doesn't try to get rid of the prince, I'm afraid that life won't be better in the future.

She immediately summoned her elder brother Xiangye and Chu Xiang, the head of the imperial guard, to discuss countermeasures. They plotted to burn down the West Palace, which was carried out by General Chu.

At the critical moment, General Chu gave up the idea of harming the prince and exchanged his own son for the prince's exit from the palace.

Xu Guifei cried and cried, turned her heart sideways, picked up the hairpin, and used the tip of the hairpin to tattoo the word "heaven" on the prince's left shoulder. The stab is in the child's body, the pain is in the mother's heart, and after the stabbing is finished, Xu Guifei's painful liver and intestines are broken. She trembled and hung a jade pendant on the crown prince, which was given by the emperor himself, and there is only one in the world today.

Concubine Xu Guifei kowtowed to Chu Xiang, and said with tears in her eyes, "General Chu, please accept my three bows, your great kindness and great virtue, this palace will repay it in the next life." ”

"Niangniang, you can't help it, please get up ...... quickly" As he spoke, he heard footsteps outside, General Chu picked up the prince and hurriedly fled through the side door.

Xu Guifei fainted.

The person who came was the imperial doctor Feng Nanyang. Legend has it that this person was originally a man in the rivers and lakes, and his nickname was the fortune teller. He can pinch and calculate, not only has excellent medical skills, but also has extraordinary martial arts. He took away General Chu's son, performed light skills, shuttled freely in the palace, easily got rid of the pursuit of the palace guards, and left the city safely.

After Xia, he ordered people to burn down the West Palace, and Xu Guifei and a cadre were buried in the fire. During the inventory of the body, it was found that the body of a baby was missing. Plus General Chu Xiang's whereabouts are unknown. Empress Xia and Xiangye concluded that the prince was most likely taken away by Chu Xiang. So, Empress Xia secretly sent people to hunt down and kill General Chu Xiang.

In the fourth year of Xingde, the emperor returned triumphantly.

Xia Hou was shrewd and capable, and kept this matter a secret. Emperor Hong didn't believe that Xu Guifei really died in an accident. He often dreamed of the crown prince, and he has been sending people to investigate the matter secretly, but he has not been able to find out the truth, Chu Xiang disappeared, and Feng Nanyang also disappeared.

In the fifth year of Xingde, the queen gave birth to a son, and Emperor Hong named him Hong Cheng'an. The queen thought to herself, the emperor obviously did not have high hopes for this son. Empress Xia thought to herself, even if the emperor delayed issuing an edict and appointing a new crown prince, Emperor Rihong would die, and the throne would be her son's sooner or later. However, she still had some concerns, twenty-four years ago, she sent someone to hunt down and kill Chu Xiang, Chu Xiang was seriously injured and died, but the prince did not know who rescued him.

For more than 20 years, there has been no news of the prince. If the crown prince is still alive, then he will be the biggest threat to Hong Chengan's succession to the throne. Besides, once this matter is revealed, she and Xiangye will definitely be in trouble.

Emperor Hong Gaode reigned for 24 years, he worked hard, knew people well, the country was strong, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. Emperor Hong grew old and missed his lost prince more and more, and finally fell ill.

Knowing that Emperor Hong was ill, Feng Nanyang sneaked into the palace to see the emperor.

"Bold Feng Nanyang, you are guilty, you have been hiding for more than 20 years, and I have been sending people to look for you and General Chu for more than 20 years. Do you know about Concubine Xu? Emperor Hong cried with joy when he saw him.

"Your Majesty, the minister is guilty. When the queen wanted to burn down the West Palace, the minister arrived after learning about it, and the minister came one step late, and the prince had been taken away by General Chu. In a panic, Zhongchen rescued General Chu's son and handed him over to a foreign master to raise. For the past 24 years, I have been secretly searching for the whereabouts of the prince, but I have never found it. The ministers have the great trust of the emperor. Feng Nanyang was full of guilt.

"What a queen. Over the years, I have seen her keep to herself and teach the emperor carefully, but I never thought that she would be so vicious. I'm going to send her to the cold! Emperor Hong gritted his teeth angrily and slapped the imperial case.
