The crown prince took the first step to report what happened at the banquet to Song Xu, and Song Xu almost overturned the table in front of him when he heard this in the imperial study.

If a dignified son wants to do something bad to the minister's daughter, if it spreads, I am afraid it will become a scandal that makes people laugh off their big teeth!

Song Xu's anger couldn't be suppressed, and at this time, the eunuch reported that Xue Bihe, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, was already kneeling at the gate of the palace with his son. Song Xu was even more dizzy, and a few words popped out of his mouth: "Let those bastards at the banquet get into the palace!"

The eunuch trembled and walked away.

A trial presided over by the emperor himself was held in the Taiji Hall.

Not long after the eunuch who delivered the decree went out, Song Xu waited for all the people involved, obviously, it was not caused by the efficiency of the eunuchs.

The ground of the main hall was full of kneeling people, including Song Yuande, the king of Qi who had just woken up and had a thick gauze on his head.

Song Yuande did have a little shame and fear in his heart, but more than that, he was resentful of Song Yi'an. There was a dense pain in his head, especially in the back of his head, and the tremor caused by walking could make him frown in pain - no, he couldn't frown, it hurt!

Xue Bihe appeared in a seated position on the Taiji Hall for the first time, but this did not alleviate his anger. He still vividly remembers how his jeweled daughter looked when she was brought home disheveled and scarred. Obviously he was fine when he went out, but when he came home, he became like that, how could he not feel distressed?

Even if the other party is a prince, he has to fight for justice.

Xue Bihe is qualified to fight for this justice, because seventeen years ago, he was not a courtier of the Zhou Dynasty, but a staff member of the Yiguo Mansion.

His family has been loyal to the Song family for three generations, and his son, who has become an official, is the fourth generation. When the Song family entered Chang'an, whether it was to make suggestions or to fight in the south and north, he made a contribution, but in order to take care of those generals with military merits, the court did not reward him with a title, but the official position of Zheng Erpin was placed there, is it not enough weight?

Song Xu sat on the dragon chair, although his heart was chaotic, he still had a trace of happiness: fortunately there was no bigger mess, fortunately Zhou Meiyu reacted in time and blocked the news, fortunately, Song Yuande, the king of Qi, was still alive.

Song Xu said in a deep voice: "Prince, tell me, what's going on?"

Song Yuanji knelt up straight and said, "Back to my father, today I will drink in Longqing Restaurant, during the banquet, Miss Xue went to the backyard alone to enjoy the calligraphy and paintings, and then the third brother also went to the backyard, taking advantage of the wine, wanting to do something bad to Miss Xue." The seventh brother was in a hurry, and hit the third brother on the head with a celadon vase to save Miss Xue. The Longqing Restaurant has now been blocked, please send someone to investigate. ”

"I'm already gone, I don't need you to remind me!" Song Xu said angrily, and then he asked Song Yuande again: "King Qi, do you have anything to say?"

Song Yuande climbed a few steps forward, kowtowed, and cried: "The child is wronged, and the father is aware of it!"

"Bastard!" Song Xu slapped the armrest of the dragon head and scolded, "Human and physical evidence are gathered, you have done such an ugly thing, and you dare to shout injustice, where did you come from!"

Shouting grievances is a "conditioned reflex" that Song Yuande has cultivated over the years, and after being scolded by Song Xu, he has nothing to say for a while. But he has been immersed in officialdom for more than 20 years, and he still has the ability to react. He hesitated for a moment and said, "Erchen...... Erchen didn't have the idea of being disrespectful to Miss Xue, it was she, herself, she seduced Erchen, and Erchen did such ugly things!"

Shameless, too shameless! It's just a matter of not admitting it, and pouring dirty water on a girl, people are secretly angry, why didn't Song Yi'an kill him with a bottle in the first place?

But there is one thing that needs to be noted, except for Xue Bei'er and Song Yuande, only Song Yi'an, who can't speak, was present at that time, and in the eyes of outsiders, Song Yi'an and Song Yuande had a bad relationship. The news has been blocked, do you still want Miss Xue to show up and state the situation at that time? Do you still want the name of the girl's family? Do you still want the old face of the Ministry of Rites?

Xue Xun couldn't hold it anymore, and wanted to rush over and punch Song Yuande a few times, but Xue Bihe frowned and pulled him. Xue Bihe knew what Song Yuande was thinking about it, and he also had his own abacus. He believed that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who was also present, would not let Song Yuande take advantage.

Song Xu stood up, he walked down the steps step by step, walked in front of Song Yuande, bent over, and asked lightly, "Oh?

Song Yuande was so frightened that his legs were weak, and the spasm from his heart completely covered the pain of the wound on his head. He gritted his teeth and said, "Yes." ”

"Very good," Song Xu stood up straight, stood with his hands in his hands, and asked, "King Shu, is that so?"

Song Yuanjie said: "The ministers are one step late, and they don't fully understand ......."

"Fifth brother!" Song Yuanji said anxiously, "At this time, do you still want to protect yourself?!"

Song Xu flicked his sleeves: "I am asking the king of Shu, what are you talking about, prince? This is the rule you learned from the prince?"

Song Yuanji hurriedly confessed: "My father is angry, and my son is speechless." ”

Seeing that Song Xu's eyes were still on his body, Song Yuanjie continued: "Although the ministers did not watch the whole thing, when the ministers arrived, they saw Miss Xue huddled in the corner, her dress was torn and messy, her face was full of tears, and her voice was hoarse; Miss Xue is a beautiful girl, she is a well-known talented woman in the capital, and she will definitely not joke about the famous festival. As for the rest, please ask my father to decide. ”

At this point, he can still not help each other, watch from the wall, and hand over the decision to the emperor, Song Xu suddenly discovered that maybe this silent fifth prince is not as cowardly and stupid as he imagined.

In the end, Song Xu put his eyes on Song Yi'an.

Song Yi'an's kneeling position is the back of the princes, almost alongside Zhen Yuqing and He Lianyi. As a participant in this matter, she wants to make an appearance of staying out of the matter, and Song Xu can't guess whether she is really worn out of her spirit or wants to be captured.

Shot ruthlessly, although it was to save people, but he smashed a prince unconscious without any scruples, I have to say that he has the guts, I believe that even if he changes Song Yuanji, who has been fighting with Song Yuandeming for nearly 20 years, it is impossible to smash it so decisively.

But Song Yi'an did it, without half a sense of emotion, regardless of the consequences.

Song Xu circled around Song Yi'an and found that her back was covered with blood marks. The prince had already heard about her embarrassment on the road, and at that time he only felt that Song Yuanji was breathless and ungraceful, but seeing that Song Yi'an's injury was so serious, he had to admit that he was too indulgent to Song Yuanji.

Also, Song Yi'an is still so forbearing.
