Chapter 278: You're Scared
"Wei'er, don't favor the wicked!" King Xuan was slightly angry.
Wei'er is so confused, Xiao Yurou is extremely evil, and Wei'er still has to protect her? This time, no one can intercede, Xiao Yurou is dead!
Ziwei pressed King Xuan's angry arm and smiled, "Hehe! Is it good for her to protect herself, if the prince kills Xiao Yurou in the palace, then people who don't know the truth will inevitably suspect that Princess Xuan is favored, and intimidate the prince to get rid of the side concubine, she is not fake to dominate the prince, but she can't bear a bad reputation for being ruthless.
"Xuan, in the palace privately tortured and killed this wicked person, the world only saw the prince tyrannically killed the side concubine, but did not know the evil deeds she committed, why not hand her over to Dali Temple for public trial, and show her notoriety to the world. ”
What Wei'er said was extremely true, beating her to death with a cane was a cheap thing for her. Chuan Xin Ge and Qing Xiao Zhong Yan arrived at the house. King Xuan nodded in agreement.
King Xuan's study walked into two people, one was the Shangshu Xinge of the Ministry of War, and the other was Xiao Yurou's father, Xiao Zhongyan, the current secretary of Dali Temple.
"Weichen Xinge see the prince, see the princess!"
"The old minister Xiao Zhongyan sees the prince, see the princess!"
"Excuse me, sit down. King Xuan looked at Xiao Zhongyan with a cold face.
"Lord Xiao, this king has abandoned your daughter Xiao Yurou today, this king has asked his father to hand her over to Dali Temple for public trial, Lord Xiao can avoid it, and this case will be presided over by Xin Ge. ”
Wechen obeyed. Xin Ge bowed down and took the order.
"The old minister obeys orders, the minister has no way to teach his son, and he teaches his daughter unladylike. The old minister is guilty!" Xiao Zhongyan knelt on the ground, ashamed of his shameless self-esteem, his son did not take the right path, and his daughter did not know the shame, and he did everything he could to compete for favor and position, he was loyal to his ministers, but his godson failed very much!
King Xuan glared at Xiao Zhongyan and sneered coldly, "Lord Xiao, is your daughter Xiao Yurou just unladylike? She is a very poisonous woman, and this king will not show mercy. ”
"The old minister is guilty!" Xiao Zhongyan kowtowed.
"Get up, for the sake of being Wei'er's father, the father-in-law of this king, you will spare the Xiao family. ”
"Thank you, Lord Wang. Xiao Zhongyan kowtowed in thanks.
King Xuan leaned back in his chair, eased his anger slightly, proudly picked up the teacup, and took a sip of tea.
"Daddy!" Seeing this, Ziwei immediately stepped forward to support Xiao Zhongyan, but Xiao Zhongyan still knelt and didn't move, a pool of tears suddenly welled up in Ziwei's eyes, Xiao Yurou is Daddy's own flesh and blood, and if a white-haired person sends a black-haired person, Daddy will definitely be heartbroken.
"Daddy, I'm sorry!"
"It's daddy who says I'm sorry, since the day Yurou stepped into the palace, daddy no longer has Xiao Yurou's daughter, just now Lord Xin has told daddy that Yurou committed crimes in the palace, Wei'er, you have suffered, the Xiao family is sorry for you!"
"Daddy, don't talk about outsiders, my daughter is also a member of the Xiao family, she will always be your daughter, the Xiao family is ashamed because of the eldest sister, and the daughter's face is not honorable. What's the matter, the eldest sister committed a lot of crimes, and she didn't want to repent, and she actually killed the prince's flesh and blood, and her daughter couldn't protect her anymore. ”
"If Rou'er is half as sensible as you, she will not go to a dead end. Xiao Zhongyan's eyes were red at this time, and his throat was choked.
The public trial of Xiao Yurou was set after the Queen Mother's birthday, that is, ten days later, Xin Ge interrogated the testimony of the relevant people, and then took Xiao Yurou back to Dali Temple to be detained, awaiting the public trial. Ten days later, Xiao Yurou ended her sinful life by a white silk, her viciousness caused the anger of people and gods, and she was still spurned by the world many years later, of course, this is a later story.
The Empress Dowager's birthday was grandiose, with great pomp and circumstance, and as in previous years, courtiers and ministers' wives of more than three grades were invited to the palace for a banquet, and various celebrities were also invited to perform to help the fun.
Ziwei entered the palace with King Xuan, first went to Feng'an Palace to meet the grandmother of the birthday emperor, and said a few auspicious words for longevity, and the queen mother naturally told Ziwei a parting word for a while, and then entered the birthday hall together.
The emperor and queen, several high-ranking concubines, and all the princes and princesses have been waiting in the main hall for a long time. The queen mother sat gracefully and luxuriously on the throne, the emperor and queen first worshipped her birthday, the concubines and younger generations worshipped her birthday in turn, and the ministers also wished the queen mother a long life.
The banquet was opened, the dance clothes were fluttering, and the sound of silk and bamboo resounded throughout the palace, and everyone was immersed in the banquet.
The banquet dance came to an end, the emperor respectfully invited the queen mother to go back to the palace to rest, after the queen mother left, she had been sitting next to King Xuan, Ziwei, got up lightly and walked in front of the queen, and bowed slightly.
"The queen, the concubine has something to ask the queen to recognize, you are an elder, well-informed, you will definitely recognize this thing. After she finished speaking, in the surprise of the queen and everyone, she took out a black jade hairpin, which was a little weird and a little contemptuous in front of the queen's eyes.
Ten years ago, Prime Minister Mu Cheng's hairpin was worn inseparably from his hair.
The queen looked at Mu Ziwei in disbelief, her expression flustered for a moment, but she immediately returned to normal. This black jade hairpin is an item that Prime Minister Mu never left before his death, at the time of the incident between Ling Guifei and Prime Minister Mu Cheng, because Prime Minister Mu did not wear this precious hairpin, therefore, some people suspected that Prime Minister Mu gave this thing to Ling Guifei, only the queen knew, this hairpin was left behind, how did Mu Ziwei get this hosta?
The queen narrowed her phoenix eyes and looked at a pair of clear eyes in front of her, Mu Ziwei, at the queen mother's birthday banquet today, in a large public, take out such a thing for the palace to identify, what do you want to do?
"Queen Mother, are you unrecognizable, or are you frightened and scared by it?" Ziwei curled the corners of her lips mockingly and smiled, raised her eyes, and looked at the queen's phoenix eyes sharply, "This hairpin has appeared, and it told me an ulterior secret of the queen ten years ago." ”
The queen was shocked in her heart, could it be that Mu Ziwei found something? It's been ten years, and there can't be any evidence for a long time, maybe this hairpin was picked up by her in Zhaoyang Palace.
"There are no ulterior secrets in this palace. Princess Xuan, you're drunk. ”
"The queen wants me to be drunk? Unfortunately, I'm not drunk, I'm sober. ”
Princess Xuan's fierce attitude towards the queen has attracted the attention of all ministers, and in the past ten years, the only people who dare to confront the queen are King Xuan and Princess Xuan and his wife. At this time, there was silence in the hall, and everyone's eyes fell on the queen mother and Princess Xuan.
"Queen Mother, there is a person who testifies that you conspired to frame Ling Guifei and Prime Minister Mu Cheng, and I brought her here. Ziwei looked directly into the queen's eyes, caught the palpitation in her eyes, and smiled faintly on her cherry lips, "Lin Xiao, pass on Hanyu to the palace." ”
"Yes!"
Hanyu walked into the main hall and knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "Slave Hanyu kowtows to see the emperor." ”
"Flat!" the emperor sat on the throne and watched the development of the situation.
"Hanyu, tell the emperor and the ministers what you saw ten years ago. Ziwei commanded.
