Chapter 55 The first trial of Guo Huai was fruitless
"Li Niangniang?" Guo Huai sneered, "What is the proof?"
Master Bao was shocked, "Li Niangniang has the golden pill given by the emperor as proof!" Then he turned his head to look at Queen Li, and said, "Please show the golden pill!"
Li Hou took out the golden pill and handed it to Lord Bao, and with a twist of Lord Bao's hands, the golden pill was divided into two halves, and there was a nine-song night pearl inside!
"This is the Nine Songs Night Pearl, which was passed down by Emperor Taizu, and there are only two in the Great Song Dynasty!" Master Bao raised the golden pill and the night pearl in his hand, rotated it for a week, and shouted, "Guo Huai, can you see clearly?"
Guo Huai raised his eyes and glanced at Master Bao, picked his eyes, and said with a sneer, "Even if she is Concubine Li's mother? After more than 20 years, our family has forgotten, it is very possible? Moreover, Concubine Li was obviously dead back then, how could it appear? It is also common sense that our family did not recognize it for a while!"
"Bold Guo Huai!" Master Bao returned the golden pill to Li Hou, slapped the shocked wood, and shouted angrily, "Guo Huai, how did he replace the prince with the original framed Li Hou, and then murdered the palace maid Kou Zhu, so that Li Niangniang left her hometown and was wronged for 20 years, and she was recruited from the truth!"
"Joke!" Guo Huai sneered disdainfully, "At the beginning, Concubine Li produced a demon, and the first emperor was angry, so he degraded the cold palace." Is there any reason to make an exchange? Murder of Kou Zhu? Joke, where is the evidence? Please make it clear!"
"Guo Huai!" Master Bao snorted, then turned to the Eight Sages King and arched his hand, "This matter is evidenced by the Eight Sages King, and there is Chen Lin's father-in-law as evidence, you still don't recruit from the truth!?"
Guo Huai sneered, "Then dare to ask my lord, what is the ins and outs of this matter?
"Hmph!" Master Bao slapped the shocked wood and shouted angrily, "You are plotting rebellion, destroying your heart, exchanging the civet cat for the new birthday dragon of Li Niangniang in Yuchen Palace, and plotting to kill the prince! Later, you murdered Kou Zhu, if it weren't for the clear truth, I'm afraid that the prince would have died at your hands back then!"
"If it weren't for Father-in-law Chen Lin risking his life to send the prince out of the palace and to the Eight Sages King, now someone from An Can come to complain? An can avenge Concubine Li's mother?" Master Bao shouted angrily, "Guo Huai, do you know who the son is today?"
"The Holy One is the third son of the Eight Sage Kings!" After Guo Huai heard that Chen Lin had sent the crown prince to the Eight Sages King, his eyelids suddenly jumped, and he was a little frightened.
"That's good!" Master Bao shouted, "The saint is indeed the third son of the eighth prince, but his biological mother is Concubine Li!"
"What!?" Guo Huai and Empress Liu shouted in shock at the same time, "The Holy Lord is Concubine Li's son?"
"This matter is the Eight Sages King, Chen Lin's father-in-law has already testified, this is a true thing!" Master Bao sneered, "Guo Huai, you still haven't recruited from the truth?"
"Wait!" Empress Liu suddenly looked at the Eight Sages King with a pale face, her body trembled, and asked, "Is the Holy Lord really Concubine Li's son?"
The Eight Sages King nodded coldly, and there was no expression in his eyes when he looked at Empress Liu, "Yes, you were powerful back then, if this king told the truth, I was afraid that it would harm the crown prince, so this king has endured it so far." I want to find an opportunity to explain, but you have become a holy adoptive mother, and now the Queen Mother, in desperation, the matter has not been explained until now!"
"Tanuki for Prince...... The son of Concubine Li, the third son of the Eight Kings...... Prince...... Hahahaha!" A long and sad laugh came out of Liu Hou's mouth, Liu Hou's whole body trembled, and he laughed sadly, "People are not as good as the sky, hahaha, people are not as good as the sky!"
"Queen Mother!" Renzong paused slightly, tears flowed out, trembling and stretched out his hands, but put them down again.
He no longer has the courage to support her, and he no longer has the courage to call her the queen mother!
"This is the so-called Heavenly Justice, retribution is unpleasant! In the dark, there is Heavenly Justice to protect each other!" Master Bao sighed and said loudly.
Liu Hou sat slumped in his chair, and there seemed to be no focus between his eyes.
Guo Huai looked at Empress Liu, his eyes flashed with a trace of unbearability, a trace of pain, and he sneered, "Master Bao, your ability to make up stories is getting better and better...... This story is indeed interesting, very interesting!"
Master Bao was stunned, slapped the wood, and shouted angrily, "Guo Huai, now that the human and material evidence is complete, do you still dare to be cunning?"
Guo Huai sneered disdainfully, "Since this is the case, then let's ask, where is the witness?"
"The Eighth Prince and Father-in-law Chen Lin are both witnesses!" Master Bao said coldly.
"That's good!" Guo Huai smiled faintly and looked at the Eighth Prince and Chen Lin's father-in-law, "May I ask the two of you, where did you learn about this?"
"It's Kou Zhu who said it to me!" Chen Lin said coldly.
A sneer appeared at the corner of Guo Huai's mouth, "Since this is the case, then, in other words, both of you are hearsay!
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the public court was stunned.
"Where is Kou Zhu?" Guo Huai turned his head to look at Liu Hou, and then sneered at Lord Bao, "Please come out to testify, Lord Bao, you have always paid attention to the laws of the country, since this is the case, then please ask Lord Bao to call Kou Zhu as a witness!"
Master Bao frowned and said nothing with a heavy face.
"Since that's the case......" Empress Liu suddenly spoke, her voice was unwavering, "If you can't convict Gonggong Guo, then let him go, and go back to the palace with the mourning family!"
Master Bao suddenly slapped the shocked wood, "Queen Mother, please forgive Bao Zheng for not being able to comply with the order! Although there is no evidence of Guo Huai's crime, Guo Huai is still the biggest suspect, and according to the law, he cannot be released!"
"This case is postponed for retrial!" Master Bao slapped the shocked wood and shouted, "Escort Guo Huai down and leave the court!"
"Bao Zheng, you dare to disobey the will of the mourning family!" A wisp of murderous intent shot out of Empress Liu's eyes, and she looked at Lord Bao deadly.
"The mourning family ordered you to release Guo Huai!" Liu Hou sneered, "This is Yi's will, you dare to disobey?"
Bao Zheng suddenly raised his head, looked at Queen Liu, and was silent!
The Eight Sages King sneered, "Queen Mother, this move is against the law, please ask the Queen Mother to speak!"
"You don't need to take care of the affairs of the mourning family!" Liu Hou looked crazy, glared at the Eight Sages King, and shouted angrily at Lord Bao, "If you don't let people go again, the Mourning family will punish you for the crime of resisting the decree!"
"That's enough!" the Eight Sages King shouted angrily, turned around and took out a long strip of gold brocade-wrapped object from his chair, "The first emperor has given the golden gong here, the queen mother, you don't want to force this king!"
"You!" Empress Liu's eyes widened, her lips opened and closed a few times, and she turned around suddenly, "Send the mourning family back to the palace!"
"Chitose Chitose Chitose Chitose!" Although everyone disdained Empress Liu, they still did the courtesy of the monarch and the minister!
Renzong stood up silently, waved his hand, and said, "I'm leaving...... Father, it's good for me to go to Nanqing Palace today!"
The Eight Sages sighed slightly and nodded.
"Congratulations to the emperor, long live long live long live!" everyone knelt down again.
