Palace Prisoner

Chapter 3 Destroy the Wang family and investigate the real murderer

"What?"

Wang Chu, who was suppressed by the imperial army, struggled when he heard the words. Maybe others don't know, but he knows his daughter, and she won't make such a decision without permission. Even if she is scheming, she will not do such a big move behind her family.

Xiao Yuanqi put the embroidered square pa on the table, and the material evidence is here and cannot be denied.

How about it? Presumably, Lord Youcheng should also know this thing. If it happened more than 20 years ago, the evidence this time is not enough for me to sentence you. If Concubine Li conspired me as the crown prince, she should kill the nine clans. Why can't I take you down?" Xiao Yuanqi looked coldly at the captured Wang's courtiers.

"This..." Wang Chu had no way to refute it, and it took a long time for him to look back. He looked at the king on the dragon chair, and some fog in his heart gradually dispersed. Sad laughter echoed in the hall, and Wang Chu trembled his lips and said, "The emperor is really a good king, killing virtuous ministers and destroying loyalty. Ha...haha... Changli Kingdom will definitely be destroyed by you. It's better to set up a new king now."

With that, Wang Chu deftly lowered his head, skipped the blade of the imperial army, and then turned around. Wang Chu, who was nearly 50 years old, avoided the control of the imperial army.

"Come on, Wang Chu rebelled." Wang Chu was arrested, and the happiest person in his heart was Xiao Yuanqi, followed by Chen Xun. Seeing that Wang Chu avoided the Royal Forest Army and went straight to the Dragon Throne, he couldn't help shouting.

Xiao Yuanqi looked coldly at the Wang family who moved with Wang Chu in the hall. He picked up a fold from the table and threw it down casually. The seemingly casual action broke the strength of Wang Chu's chest, and a mouthful of blood gushed out, and Wang Chu fell five steps away from the throne.

The imperial army beside him had long been ordered by Xiao Yuanqi and deliberately let the generals who were pressing Wang Chu fall into a gap. Wang Chu can't be higher than him in his eyes, so as long as Wang Chu moves, there is an excuse for the lack of previous evidence. Every official present is a witness.

"Wang Chu, do you think you can be the queen after you harm my mother? Do you think Wang Shu can become my queen by sending someone to intercept and kill the crown princess? Do you think that if you weave the charge to the Su family, your Wang family can be dominant? I tell you, it is impossible for neither the late emperor nor me to let the royal family leave a place in the court or the harem and put Wang Chu to death.

Xiao Yuanqi's eyebrows suddenly opened up, revealing a little domineering, intertwined with the golden embroidered dragon on the dragon robe, transforming into an infinite imperial spirit.

Wang Chu was tightly suppressed by the two royal forest troops, and the rest of the Wang officials knew that the last way of the Wang family had been blocked by him as soon as Wang Chu started. Chen Xun came out and bowed, and then took out a memorial from his sleeve, which he had begun to prepare for a long time, which listed what Wang officials had done over the years.

"Can you plead guilty?" Xiao Yuanqi asked coldly, and Wang officials kneeling on the ground bowed their heads one by one. At this time, those courtiers who were still ignorant were determined, and the glorious Wang family died today.

"If the sinner knows his guilt, please let the emperor fall."

Xiao Yuanqi looked at Xiao Yuanfeng beside him. Xiao Yuanfeng just looked at the Wang officials in the center indifferently, and there was no joy or sadness in his eyes.

"King Li, how do you think I should find them guilty?" Xiao Yuanqi's fingers slid back and forth on the imperial case. Today, Xiao Yuanfeng's reaction was very safe.

"Return to the emperor, the guilty of the Wang family will naturally be punished according to law, and if the innocent person is found, he will be demoted to a commoner." Xiao Yuanfeng answered respectfully.

Xiao Yuanqi looked at Xiao Yuanfeng's eyes changed, and then smiled and said, "As King Li said, take them all down."

Wang's officials were all led, and the originally full court became extremely empty.

"Your Majesty, this..." Shen Shiyan, the imperial historian, looked around the hall and said with a little hesitation, "Your Majesty, although there are not many officials, they are also in important positions. I don't know if the emperor has the will and who can make up for these official positions."

Xiao Yuanqi smiled and made a gesture to Wang Guangrong. A sharp voice came out of the hall: "It's a new scholar."

The people in the hall are puzzled. This year's Enke has not yet opened. Where can there be a new scholar? When a team of people in the robe of Jinshi entered, Xiao Yuanqi said, "I have ordered the top talents collected from all over the country. Today, in this hall, you will test them. If you can take a big job, you will arrange the official position according to its director, and limit it in March. If you can make some achievements, you will keep it. On the contrary, Depreciate the blame. I don't know what you think?"

Naturally, this statement has never been encountered by the courtiers. Opposition came one after another, but Xiao Yuanqi didn't say a word. When everyone thought about it again, they felt that it was a good strategy. With local appointment, you can let the people know the emperor's kindness, and you can also let aspiring people come to serve the court.

"I think it's feasible." Xiao Yuanfeng thought for a short time and came out to talk about it. At this moment, he has some admiration for this royal brother. Only those who can make good use of the people can the people maintain it.

"I seconded it."

"I'm seconded."

......

It is not easy to deal with the Wang family. The series of actions of conviction, raiding and sealing the house also took three days, and three days are enough for the harem to react to this.

Wang Shu was hanged, and before the execution, Shen Sirong was sent to her for the last time. Shen Sirong brought a pot of wine and a few dishes and looked at Wang Shu through the dim candlelight in the dark prison.

"I didn't kill the child." Wang Shu, with dull eyes, saw Shen Sirong squatting in front of her and rushed over with an anxious face. She knew that Xiao Yuanqi had decreed to kill her, but the emperor would listen to Shen Sirong's words.

Shen Sirong nodded gently: "I know."

A sentence "I know" made Wang Shu's eyes exude endless hatred. She grabbed Shen Sirong's arm desperately: "You know? Do you know why you still killed me? Why didn't you tell the emperor?"

Wang Shu pushed Shen Sirong to the wooden fence with her hand, and her eyes were like shooting thousands of arrows, and her hatred was as strong as wine.

"The Wang family is dead, what's the use of retaining it?" Shen Sirong knew that her child's death was not much related to Wang Shu, but she knew something that she should not know. Last time, the fruit tea in the peach blossom forest was poisonous. Although she did not drink it, she also let the medicine enter the body. She can forgive the person who hurt her, but she will not let go of the knife to her child.

"What did you say?" Wang Shu's eyes were a little lighter, and she was eager to get a little answer from Shen Sirong.

"I said that Wang Chu's murder of the Su family and Empress Hui'an has been investigated, and Wang Chu has been beheaded. And the rest of Wang's officials have been dismissed, and even Princess Shu no longer cares about this matter. Shen Sirong downplayed the collapse of the Wang family, and a few words made Wang Shu fall into the ice cellar.

Shen Sirong sat down sideways over her and put the wine and vegetables one by one: "You and I have met in Chuxiu Palace, and we used to be sisters. As soon as I entered the deep palace, I couldn't help it. Today, I came to see you on this journey.

Looking at Shen Sirong drinking a glass of wine, Wang Shu dragged her heavy legs to the opposite side of Shen Sirong and sat down. She was no longer violent just now, only a deep sadness: "Okay, thank you for coming to see me off. If it weren't for the same person we liked, if we hadn't been involuntarily entering the palace, if It's a burden of the family. Maybe we can really be sisters. Wang Shu smiled bitterly and drank all the wine in front of her. Tears fell from the end of her eyes and were in the wine.

"Yes, unfortunately, we can't decide anything about it." Shen Sirong got up and stood outside the prison door. There was a heavy sound of landing behind him. Shen Sirong raised his head slightly and walked out of the dark prison with his head held high.

As soon as Wang Shu died, Shen Sirong seemed to have lost his strength. In the Fengming Palace, Hanmei had been accompanying Shen Sirong for the past few days, and Shen Sirong became thinner and thinner.

"Madam, please eat something. The emperor will come over later and feel sad to see you like this." Hanmei held blood swallow porridge in her hand, and there was a little red mark in the sticky bird's nest. This red mark was like a muffled hammer hitting Shen Sirong's brain. She took the porridge and fell to the ground coldly.

Hearing this sound, Lanxi in front of Shen Sirong's bedroom and pushed the door in, and then pushed Hanmei aside without asking the reason.

"Come on, take this bitch to my palace." Lanxi looked at Hanmei with naked anger in her eyes. Since she learned something from the nursing lady a few days ago, Lanxi has resented the maidservant, but she has not acted according to Shen Sirong's instructions. Today, although she doesn't know why Shen Sirong has the idea of moving, Lanxi will not bypass her with this opportunity.

Hanmei looked at a loss. When she grabbed her in front of the internal prison, she knelt down: "Mother, mother, what did I do wrong? Mother, forgive me."

She looked at Shen Sirong sadly, but Shen Sirong's eyes were extremely cold. The delicate face was less confused than before, but more cold.

"Hanmei, I remember that when I was in Chuxiu Palace, you were the person arranged by the emperor to be next to me, right?" Shen Sirong kicked the fragments under his feet and asked.

"I'm going back to my wife, yes." Hanmei focused on her head.

Is that right? Then tell me who is hiding behind you?" Shen Sirong asked softly.

Han Mei was stunned when she heard the words, and then calmed down and said, "I don't understand what the Empress said. Naturally, the master of the slave is the emperor and the Empress.

"Are you still not honest?" Lanxi was full of resentment when he saw her obedient look. Lanxi came forward with a slap and swollen the corners of Hanmei's mouth.

Hanmei's lips were bloody, crying, and her face was full of grievance.

"You don't have to hide it anymore. I know everything. I just can't figure it out. Why don't you even let go of a child?
