Chapter 111: The Truth Revealed

"What did you say?" Su Lixiao's brows furrowed, and he pulled Wang Fugui over, and asked with red eyes.

"His Royal Highness King Li, when the old slave was still serving in the palace, he was assigned to Dong Guifei's palace as an errand, and soon after the Yuan Hou there was a scandal of fornication with the palace guards.

There are some secrets that Wang Fugui originally wanted to rot in his stomach for the rest of his life.

But now that he has an opportunity, he also wants to do some meager help for His Royal Highness King Li and Empress Yuan.

After all, whether it was His Royal Highness King Li or Empress Yuan, they were all kind to his king and wealth, and they couldn't be ungrateful and unreciprocated.

"The night before the incident, the old slave was on duty in the palace of the concubine Niangniang, and in the middle of the night I saw the concubine Niangniang meeting with the palace guard."

Wang Fugui can be sure that the person Dong Guifei saw was Li Kuan, the palace guard who had an affair with the Empress Yuan.

Because when he was keeping vigil, Xiangxiu, the maidservant girl next to the concubine Niangniang, suddenly had a good heart and brought him a bowl of chicken soup, Wang Fugui thought that he would go back to his house and enjoy it slowly after the vigil was over.

Therefore, he didn't drink the chicken soup immediately, and it was precisely because of this that when he was sleepy with the four eunuchs on duty, he pretended to squint and sleep in order to be lazy, and at that time he saw the scene of Dong Guifei meeting with the guards in front of the palace.

"His Royal Highness King Li, the remaining three people who were on duty with the old slave that day were directly poisoned by the chicken soup sent by the noble concubine Niangniang, and I was squeezed out by others, and the chicken soup was also snatched away by them to escape the catastrophe."

When Wang Fugui returned to his room at dawn, he saw an empty bowl, and the little eunuch who had secretly drunk his chicken soup was no longer breathing.

When he thought of that old days, he couldn't help but feel numb in his scalp and a chill down his spine.

"Later, when the Empress Yuan had an accident, Concubine Dong Guifei couldn't keep me, so she found a reason to break my legs, originally she wanted to watch the old slave fend for herself in the back mountain of the cold palace, but I had a big life and floated out of the moat outside the palace wall."

For so many years, Wang Fugui has been surviving in the black market, because he knows that if he goes out and let Dong Guifei recognize him, there will be no one to save him at that time.

"Later, the old slave was thinking that after the incident of the Yen Hou, Concubine Dong Guifei was anxious to kill everyone on duty that day, and it must be because she had nothing to do with the affairs of the Yuan Hou."

Wang Fugui sighed with emotion.

And Su Lixiao on the side was already so sad and angry that he couldn't help himself, he directly swung his sword on the pillar, and the master of Xiaolou was directly cut down by him.

This blow carried too many emotions, and Xi Qingyan knew that if he didn't let Su Lixiao vent out, he would always be suppressed.

"Wang Fugui, you dare to use your own head to vouch for the truth of what you just said?"

Shu Lixiao withdrew his sword and looked at him with a cold light.

"Your Highness, what the old slave said just now is true, if there is half a falsehood, His Highness can hand over the old slave to Concubine Dong!"

Wang Fugui swore at Su Lixiao.

This oath can be described as extremely vicious to Wang Fugui.

"Okay, from today onwards, you go back to King Li's mansion with this king, or this king stays behind to guard in this black market, which path do you choose?" Su Lixiao was calmly terrifying, and from this moment on, he once again became a battlefield is calmly His Royal Highness the King.

"Your Highness, the old slave wants to stay in the black market, you can let your people monitor and protect me, there is an undercurrent in the black market, if I don't sit here, it is very likely that the people below will ruin our cooperation."

In the end, Wang Fugui stayed.

Xi Qingyan accompanied Su Lixiao back to Li Wangfu, and on the way back, Su Lixiao kept silent.

She knew that Wang Fugui had the truth about the events of the Yuan Dynasty in his mouth, which was a heavy blow to Su Lixiao.

Empress Yuan had an affair with someone, and then wanted to argue to His Majesty in order to prove his innocence, but His Majesty was annoyed and angry, and he no longer believed in Empress Yuan's self-defense.

At that time, Su Lixiao was still a child.

He went from being the most noble prince to the most unpopular prince overnight.

Such a huge gap is not something that ordinary people can bear, and Xi Qingyan can't believe that he was dreaming at that time

How did Lixiao survive......

Xi Qingyan couldn't help but worry about leaving the sky in her heart.

Even after they returned to the Li Palace, Su Lixiao once pretended to be calm and squeezed out a smile to appease the others.

But Xi Qingyan was still relieved.

In the middle of the night, she went to the courtyard of Su Lixiao, but there was no figure of Shu Lixiao in the dormitory.

"What about the Lost Ones?"

"Princess, Your Highness, he didn't let us get close, and went there alone." Yun Fei pointed to the tall buildings in the night in the distance.

"His Highness commanded that he didn't want to see anyone today......

When Xi Qingyan heard these words, her eyebrows were filled with distress.

"When I was unhappy in my heart in the past, I endured it alone?"

"Well, that's how it was at the border back then." Yunfei nodded.

He has been by King Li's side for many years, and he has been with him for many years, but even so, he is still not allowed to approach King Li when he is sad.

"All the thoughts and sorrows of His Highness are slowly digested by one person, and the sympathy and pity of others will embarrass His Highness, which is not allowed by his pride."

King Li is extremely powerful, but he is also extremely lonely.

Yunfei can understand that King Li bears all this kind of toughness and self-esteem alone.

"Family, isn't that what works at this time? Have you forgotten that you weren't the lonely person you used to be?"

Xi Qingyan frowned, lifted the hem of her skirt and walked towards the tall building where Su Lixiao was.

Yunfei didn't stop him.

Although he respected His Royal Highness King Li's choice, he also always hoped that one day, the appearance of someone would make King Li not so lonely.

"The princess is mighty!" Yun Fei said with a smile.

"Yunfei, I'm pampered and arrogant!" Xi Qingyan also smiled and retorted arrogantly.

On the tall building, Su Lixiao sat on the ground alone, he didn't look at the moon, nor did he sigh by the railing, just sat quietly in the night alone.

If Xi Qingyan hadn't walked in, she wouldn't have found out.

"Forever ......"

"You're here, light-faced." Shu Lixiao saw the person coming clearly in the light downstairs, and reached out to hold Xi Qingyan's hand.

Xi Qingyan let Su Lixiao hold her hand, and then sat on the ground.

"Su Lixiao, you still have me, and Xiaochen Xiaomo, so don't hide alone like before to relieve yourself."

Xi Qingyan rubbed the hand that Su Lixiao held her and comforted the other party.

"Lightface, you know what? I have always been very annoyed and puzzled, annoyed that I was unable to save the queen mother back then, and I don't understand how a person who likes his father like the queen mother suddenly has an affair with the palace guards......

Su Lixiao never took the initiative to dissect himself to anyone, because he would feel that the other party was just watching from the sidelines and could never understand his feelings.

But Xi Qingyan is different, she is the person she loves and a relative.

"But today's Wang Fugui's words finally solved the doubts in my heart, the queen mother is not empathetic, but framed......

When the truth was in front of him, he was angry and sad, and he felt more and more that he was too incompetent back then.

"The queen mother died unjustly, and I, as a son, did nothing for her......

The guilt and remorse in Su Lixiao's heart surged in, almost drowning him directly.

"You were just a child at the beginning, how could you rescue Empress Yuan in such an extremely unfavorable situation?"

Xi Qingyan clenched his long-standing hand, trying to pull him out of his guilt.

"The person who hurt Empress Yuan is Concubine Dong Guifei who set up a conspiracy, and the person who doesn't listen to Empress Yuan's defense is Your Majesty, you are a victim like Empress Yuan, don't take the blame for crimes that don't belong to you, you haven't done anything wrong."

That conspiracy was against the mother and son of the Yuan Queen, and the Yuan Empress died, and Su Lixiao was sent to the frontier to fend for himself.

Such an ending of one death and one serious injury was brought by Dong Guifei.

"Xi Qingyan ......"

Su Lixiao turned around and hugged Xi Qingyan, he wanted to integrate her into his own blood and bones.

"This king has suffered a lot in the frontier land, and he has complained about my father's unkindness to me, but now I can only be glad for what happened in the past."

"If I have to go through all that inhuman suffering to meet you, then I am willing to go through it."

Su Lixiao hugged Xi Qingyan tightly, as if hugging everything he had.

What awaits him at the end of the suffering is Xi Qingyan, and Su Lixiao is willing to endure those pains, because the person in his arms is too precious to him.

"Su Lixiao, I will accompany you to witness Concubine Dong's mother and son receive the punishment they deserve."

"Hmm."

Su Lixiao regained his grief, and then arranged everything intensively with Wang Fugui in the black market.

Three days later.

The palace announced that the eunuch came to the door and brought Su Lixiao into the palace.

In the Jinluan Palace, Concubine Dong and Shu Yiting were already waiting aside, and His Majesty's expression was even more secretive.

"The son has seen his father."

Su Lixiao was unmoved, and saluted His Majesty in the palace according to the rules.

His Majesty stared at the kneeling in the sky, his eyes were full of disappointment and struggle, more than ten years ago, the betrayal of the Yuan Hou made him disappointed, and now, he did not expect that the son of the Yuan Hou would let him down as much as his mother.

"Su Lixiao, this king has given you a mission, do you remember?"

"Back to my father, my son always remembered that my father asked my son to investigate the remnants of the Western Xinjiang and find their lair."

His Majesty was still unmoved, and his heart began to be angry while being disappointed.

Su Lixiao has done something sorry for him and sorry for the court, why haven't he pretended to be nothing in front of him?

"Then you tell Lone, how did you do this? Have you found the lair of the remnants of the Western Frontier?"

"Erchen is investigating, and there is no harvest so far."

Su Lixiao's gaze swept over Dong Guifei and Shu Yiting on the side, and continued to speak calmly.

"Investigating? Who are you fooling here?" His Majesty got up angrily and scolded King Li, "In the past, you can quickly handle the things that Gu handed you to you, but now you just let you investigate the remnants of the Western Frontier and you blindly delay, is it possible that this remnant of the Western Frontier is more difficult than asking you to win the battle?"

His Majesty's heart fluctuated, and he walked in front of Su Lixiao with anger on his face.

"Lone always thought you were loyal to my father, but now it seems that Lone doesn't know anything about you!"

"Where are you not able to investigate the remnants of the Western Frontier, you are out of the same nostril as the remnants of the Western Frontier!"

As he spoke, His Majesty threw the letter on the dragon case in front of Su Lixiao, and the new dragon robe on the side was also thrown on Su Lixiao's body. ap.

"Su Lixiao, here are all letters from you in collusion with the remnants of the Western Frontier! And this dragon robe was also found from your subordinates!"

"Doesn't Lone let you be the famous prince of this country, but it still satisfies your greed? Gu is not dead yet, so you are thinking about the dragon robe?"

His Majesty scolded Su Lixiao.

"Father, these letters are forged."

Su Lixiao still indifferently picked up the letter on the ground, opened it, and handed it over.

"When my son was young, he was sent to the border for training, so he didn't have time to learn calligraphy properly, so in order to hide in front of his subordinates, I never used letters to deliver news, but used the army's order flags and tiger talismans."
