Chapter 288: The world is cold
From the moment Lin Qinghuan entered the palace to this moment, no minister dared to stand up and put his beak on the matter, because Lin Qinghuan's behavior was too shocking, and His Majesty's ugly face was already obvious to all, not to mention that Lin Qinghuan's performance involved the prince, everyone was waiting and watching, and no one was willing to be the first to eat crabs.
If you come out rashly, when Your Majesty is angry, I am afraid that I will not be able to please him, so it is better to stand honestly and be deaf and dumb, at least I will not be convicted for it.
What's more, the father and son of the Chu family have been escorted to the execution ground, and standing up at this time not only offended Lu Xian, but I am afraid that when the king of Beiding drags this hour, even if His Majesty wants to investigate thoroughly, the Chu family has already become a ghost under the knife.
If it were on weekdays, Lin Qingwan's words had come to this point, for the sake of the favor of the Chu family, some people might be willing to stand up, but now the Chu family has long been unable to return to the sky, in order to offend the prince for the dying person, it is not cost-effective for anyone to calculate this account.
So even if Lin Qingwan counted so many charges against Lu Xian, no one still stood up and asked Emperor Dongjia to investigate thoroughly, and Lin Qingwan couldn't help but feel a little chilled.
The affection for officials in the same dynasty for many years is so cold, the Chu family has come to this situation, and they are wronged, seeing that the lives of the whole house are all due to conspiracy and trickery, but no one stands up to say a word.
Lin Qingwan didn't ask these people to do anything to the Chu family, but at least the words had come to this point, was it so difficult to say a word for the Chu family?
Even if she did not come up with conclusive evidence, she had already made the suspicions clear in the Chu Mansion case, and Lu Xian's crime was not groundless, she didn't ask everyone to believe her, but she didn't even have a person who stood up and asked Emperor Dongjia to investigate thoroughly, this group of ministers led the court's Yulu, but all they cared about was the black gauze hat on their heads.
Lin Qingwan originally thought that as long as she seized the opportunity to make Lu Xian's crime public, and then said some strong evidence of the crime, even if Lu Xian's crime could not be immediately determined, it would be difficult to block the public.
Even if someone falls into the ground, there must be someone who is willing to help him, and Emperor Dongjia has always loved face and wants fame, as long as the ministers have doubts about this matter and bite it, even if it is for the sake of superficial justice, Emperor Dongjia will definitely thoroughly investigate the affairs of Chu Mansion.
At that time, she will be able to fight for the entire Chu family, even if she is imprisoned for this, it is worth it.
But Lin Qingwan never expected that she had already said so clearly, and this group of courtiers would stand in place and pretend to be deaf and dumb, without the slightest intention of interfering, but stood by and watched.
In a special period, and the matter is urgent, Lin Qinghuan will inevitably be angry in his heart, although none of the ministers in the palace are willing to stand up, but they are not as ruthless as Lin Qinghuan said, people will consider themselves, and the people standing in this palace, who are not tied to the life of the whole family, naturally do not dare to make a wrong step.
The world is cold, Lin Qingwan is extremely disappointed, but he still does not give up.
Chu Fuyan and Chu's father have been escorted to the execution ground, since none of the ministers are willing to stand up and speak for the Chu family, then she can only rely on herself and the evidence in her hands to force Emperor Dongjia to take back her life, as long as the lives of everyone in Chu Mansion are temporarily saved, there will be a chance to clear up the grievances in the future.
The guards had already surrounded her, but Lin Qingwan stood up from the ground as if she hadn't seen anything, took out the evidence in her sleeve, and turned to everyone.
"Today, Your Majesty is above, all the adults are in front, the matter referred to by the concubine is by no means groundless, the king of Beiding has committed a lot of crimes and framed the courtiers, and no one in the Chu family has killed the innocent, the evidence is here, I hope that Your Majesty will judge and give the Chu family justice!"
Lin Qingwan said a lot before, no matter how the courtiers believed it in their hearts or subconsciously, they only relied on Lin Qinghuan's mouth, and there was no evidence, but now that she has taken out the evidence, everyone's eyes will be different.
Besides, Lin Qingwan pulled the hundreds of officials in the palace, it seemed that he was seeking justice, but in fact, he made these people unable to get out, as officials of the imperial court, since they witnessed an unjust case today, how could they stand by and watch?
Even if they are cheeky and don't hear anything and ignore this matter, if the father and son of the Chu family really die unjustly, and the truth comes out afterwards, it is difficult to guarantee that no one will come out about this matter in the future and impeach them for failing to fulfill their duties as court officials.
What's more, most people are biased towards the Chu family in their hearts, although they don't have the courage to stand up and speak, risking their official career and the lives of the whole family, but they don't fully believe that the Chu family will really do something rebellious, after all, the father and son of the Chu family are officials in the court, and their conduct is obvious to all.
So as soon as the evidence in Lin Qingwan's hand came out, I don't know who hit the head, the courtiers have already begun to discuss, although they are only talking in small voices, but the atmosphere in the hall is completely different from Fang Cai.
When Emperor Dongjia ordered Lin Qinghuan to be taken down, Lu Xian breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, as long as Emperor Dongjia couldn't tolerate Lin Qingjuan, she would not have the opportunity to show evidence in front of others, and Lin Qinghuan said no matter how much, no evidence was slander.
As long as Lin Qingwan, a sinner woman, dies and has no proof of death, as long as he makes some fake traces and acts in a few scenes, he can explain how he wants to explain at that time.
But Lu Xian didn't expect Lin Qingwan to bring the evidence with him, and he took it out at the last moment, and now everyone in the hall has seen the evidence in her hand, and everyone is inexhaustible, it is impossible for him to kill hundreds of officials, not to mention that in this palace, there is still his father and emperor.
Looking at the eyes of the ministers who had obviously changed, Lu Xian's heart was annoyed that this group of guards was grinding things.
"What are you still doing in a daze, the Lin family is making a big fuss in the court, framing this king, there is no word or deed in front of my father, and the crime is already unforgivable, so don't take it quickly!"
The guards who surrounded Lin Qingwan did not move immediately, because Lin Qinghuan had already been surrounded and would definitely not be able to run, and the guards led by him looked towards Emperor Dongjia, waiting for Emperor Dongjia's order.
Although they are sincerely afraid, but they can be on an errand in the palace, and a few of them are brainless, I don't know whether what Lin Qingwan said is true or false, but whether it is true or not, what they want to see is the meaning of Emperor Dongjia.
The moment Lin Qinghuan took out the evidence, not only the courtiers, but also Emperor Dongjia's face changed, if there was no evidence, no matter how much Lin Qinghuan said it, he couldn't count, no one knew whether what she said was true or false, but now that she swore to come up with evidence, Emperor Dongjia was also suspicious.
Could it be that the King of Beiding really had stiff wings, and he did so many hurtful things behind his back, and even the entire Chu Mansion was destroyed by this son?
Emperor Dongjia doesn't mind whether the Chu family is really wronged, but he doesn't mind who is behind the scenes, if his son, without his knowledge, already has the ability to destroy the government, then this is what Emperor Dongjia can't tolerate no matter what.
The Chu family can't stay, but if the facts are really as Lin Qingwan said, then Lu Xian has to guard against it.
If Lin Qingjuan is killed today, then the matter of the Chu Mansion can no longer be verified, and Emperor Dongjia wants to get rid of the Chu family, but at the same time, he also wants to know what Lu Xian has done in this, so he hesitates about Lin Qingjuan's life, and he doesn't know how to make a decision for a while.
While Emperor Dongjia was thinking, the whispers of the courtiers had already reached Lu Xian's ears.
"The king of Beiding has always been diligent and fair, could he really do such evil things?"
"Knowing people and knowing faces but not knowing their hearts, then the Lin family is right, not to mention that now that even the evidence has been taken out, I don't think this matter can be faked, and eighty percent of the Chu family has been wronged. ”
"Yes, yes, the Chu family has always acted fairly and benevolently, and this case is indeed full of suspicions. ”
"What if there are many suspicions, a courtier sued the prince, don't you really think that the prince can be guilty of the same crime as the common people, what the result is, naturally you still have to look at the holy will. ”
"The sacred heart is unpredictable, it's just that I have been an official for more than ten years, do I really want to watch Lord Chu suffer and die unjustly?"
If it was just one or two people, they naturally wouldn't dare to talk about Lu Xian, the prince, in the court, but now that everyone is making money, even if Lu Xian is not angry, he can't offend all the courtiers, so these people are even more unscrupulous.
Listening to the discussions of the people around him, Lu Xian's face was full of embarrassment, and he was so angry that he wanted to kill Lin Qingwan immediately.
If it weren't for this slut, when the hour had passed, and everyone in the Chu family had become dead souls under the knife, naturally no one would come to accuse him of being wrong for the dead.
But Lin Qingjuan, a woman, is uneasy, and at this time she dares to come to him, she simply doesn't know whether she is alive or dead, and those people under him are also ineffective, so that Lin Qinghuan can get so much evidence, and she is calculated by a woman, it is a waste!
Lu Xian stared at Lin Qingwan, who was holding evidence in the center of the hall, the murderous aura in his eyes became stronger and stronger, and he couldn't hold it back.
His fists were clenched tightly, Lu Xian gritted his teeth, suppressing the urge to strangle Lin Qinghuan, he knew that he couldn't do this, if he killed Lin Qinghuan at this time, he would only be charged with murder and contempt for Tianwei, and even if Lin Qinghuan died, he would have endless trouble.
Lu Xian could only pin his hopes on Emperor Dongjia, but when he looked up and saw Emperor Dongjia in a high position thoughtful, his heart sank to the bottom, and his father's expression was already suspicious of him?
Glancing at Lin Qingwan viciously, Lu Xian knelt down again and said, "Father, the Lin family has already despised Tianwei when he broke into the palace, and after entering the palace, he has no etiquette at all, and he has no respect for his father, how can he believe that the words of such a vulgar and rude woman are wronged, and he still asks his father to call the shots!"
Lu Xian's trick is also very clever, it seems that he is crying out for himself, but he does not leave Lin Qingwan's disrespect for Emperor Dongjia, and Emperor Dongjia has always been a person who loves face, and he cannot tolerate his imperial authority being provoked and questioned.
Sure enough, as soon as Emperor Dongjia heard this, his face darkened again.
Regardless of whether what the Lin family said is true or false, the disrespect for him has become a fact, even if the matter of the Chu Mansion needs to be verified, Lu Xian is not completely innocent, and he must not live in the world with this woman.
As an emperor, the hall of his deliberations was disturbed by a woman, if this woman can still live in the world, who else in the world will take his majesty in his eyes, just afraid that in the future, in the annals of history, future generations will also laugh at his useless imperial might.
