Chapter 108 Huaipings madness is unparalleled, the evidence is conclusive, Your Majesty
Give death
Ministry of Punishment.
At this moment, Xu Qingxiao was determined about one thing.
The prince of Huaiping County must die.
Xu Qingxiao didn't hesitate at all.
He completely believed every word that Prince Huaiping said just now. If he did not die, he would be mercilessly targeted.
I am not afraid, but what about the people around me? If I can not make mistakes, can they not make mistakes?
Once he makes a mistake, according to Prince Huaiping's behavior, he is afraid that the people around him will die in vain one after another.
Death may sound better, but life may be worse than death.
Therefore, Prince Huaiping must die.
Unless you die, your heart will not be at peace.
This is a great enemy, a truly great enemy.
Xu Qingxiao left the Criminal Department and walked towards the palace without even changing her clothes, that's all.
Looking at Xu Qingxiao's back, Prince Huaiping only had coldness in his eyes. He was sure that he would torture Xu Qingxiao to death. No, it was not to torture Xu Qingxiao to death, but to make Xu Qingxiao live in pain for the rest of his life.
Only in this way can he take revenge on Xu Qingxiao and make Xu Qingxiao truly regret it. If he killed Xu Qingxiao directly, there would be no pleasure at all. He would torture Xu Qingxiao to death so that he could have pleasure and continuous pleasure.
Thinking of this, Prince Huaiping smiled.
He looked at Jiang Xiyan with contempt in his eyes, his eyes were cold and he said nothing, but his eyes said everything.
He, Jiang Xinyan, is going to be in trouble too, and Prince Huaiping won't let him go.
The king of Huaiping County walked like a dragon and a tiger, with disheveled hair, walking towards the palace.
at this time.
Outside the palace, civil and military officials have gathered. What happened today is ten times worse than Xu Qingxiao's riot in the Ministry of Justice.
The officials of the six ministries were all silent outside the palace, and with the arrival of Xu Qingxiao, the officials' eyes were extremely complicated. They didn't know why Xu Qingxiao insisted on forging a deadly feud with Prince Huaiping.
But the only thing they knew was that Xu Qingxiao was really going to be in trouble. After all, Prince Huaiping was the prince, and as he said before, His Majesty would not kill him no matter what.
Unless Xu Qingxiao can produce key evidence to prove that Prince Huaiping is really suspected, everything will be empty talk.
When Xu Qingxiao arrived, no one spoke to him, but the Duke and others looked at Xu Qingxiao and nodded. They did not speak, but made eye contact, telling Xu Qingxiao not to say a word, and everything would be easy to talk about in the court.
Soon, Prince Huaiping appeared. He was still arrogant, his eyes were domineering, and his disheveled hair made him even more majestic and terrifying.
"You're impulsive."
Sun Jing'an spoke. He looked at Prince Huaiping and wanted to dissuade him. He thought that Prince Huaiping was too impulsive and radical, and now he is in a quagmire.
But Prince Huaiping looked at Sun Jing'an with great indifference and said slowly.
"What does this king's matter have to do with you?"
Sun Jing'an was stunned by the words he spoke.
He is a great scholar and has a very high status. Prince Huaiping is a prince. According to his position, he is indeed higher than him, and it is not just a little higher, but very high. However, Prince Huaiping is also a scholar, and he is a scholar in their Great Wei Wen Palace.
.
His teacher was also a great Confucian, and it was normal for him to preach a few words, but he didn't expect that the Prince of Huaiping County would actually talk to him like this?
However, in the eyes of Prince Huaiping, everything he did, including his enmity with Xu Qingxiao, was all because of the Great Wei Wengong. He didn't care about enmity with Xu Qingxiao, but he cared that the Great Wei Wengong did not help him.
Furthermore, why is he studying? Is it really for self-cultivation? Isn’t it just to suppress Huanglong’s great energy? Isn’t it just to win over Confucian officials?
But now, he has caused such a big thing, and Prince Huaiping knows that he is in trouble today, but so what? As long as he won't die.
The worst case scenario is that he will be imprisoned, the worst case scenario is that he will be punished, and the worst case scenario is that he will go to another place to become a vassal king. But sooner or later he will return to the capital, and sooner or later he will avenge these things.
As for the Great Wei Wen Palace, there is no need to respect him, he is just like a bunch of dogs.
"you!"
Sun Jing'an felt a little embarrassed. He pointed at the latter and wanted to scold him, but was immediately stopped by Chen Zhengru.
"Don't mess with him, he is the prince."
Chen Zhengru's words made Sun Jing'an silent. He was so angry that he could only hold it in his heart, and his face turned red.
His original intention was to educate Prince Huaiping, but he didn't expect that the other party would not give him any face, so he couldn't say anything more, so he could only keep his head down and suffer the loss.
"Xuan, hundreds of officials will enter the court."
The familiar voice sounded again.
Hundreds of officials entered the court one after another. Everyone's expressions were a little grim, and everyone had different thoughts.
What happened today was too big and too big.
They don't know how it will end.
Soon, hundreds of officials came to His Highness.
Almost at the same time, the eunuch's voice sounded.
"Enter the court."
The voice sounded.
Everyone lined up one by one and walked towards the main hall, while Prince Huaiping took the middle path. He was the prince and prince, and the royal family of the Wei Dynasty was qualified to take this path.
Hundreds of officials entered the court.
The hall was dark and cool, but everyone felt extremely heavy.
At this moment, hundreds of officials entered the court, and before all the ministers shouted, "Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live, long live the emperor."
Li Yuan's voice sounded.
"Your Majesty, Li Yuan, you have a copy of the instrument."
Li Yuan spoke immediately.
"Xuan."
On the dragon throne, the empress stood high above her. When she spoke a word, she let Li Yuan speak first.
"Your Majesty, I have no regard for the king's laws, trampled on the laws, hurt people, arrested people for disobedience, humiliated all the officials, and insulted us like pigs and dogs. Such words are treasonous and unethical. Such actions are condemned by God and God.
I am angry, I beg your majesty to severely punish the Duke of Huaiping County, to rectify the law, and to calm the hearts of the officials in the world."
When Li Yuan came up, he put a lot of charges on the head of the Huaiping County Prince, and his attitude was extremely strong. Otherwise, he would not even shout "long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live my emperor," but would take part in the book. This shows how determined Li Yuan is.
"That's nonsense."
"Why do I have no laws? He is just the head of the criminal department, and he wants to arrest me? I am the king of the county, the king of the Wei Dynasty. If I arrest him without any help, it will be an insult to the throne."
"My arrest for disobedience is a normal act of resistance. I have not killed anyone, but the soldiers from the capital have killed several of my men."
"You, the civil servants, confuse right and wrong with your mouth. I ask you, what is the mistake of me?"
Prince Huaiping is really arrogant, and his arrogance is boundless.
In front of His Majesty, he actually spoke directly and said what he had done in such a passive manner, which actually made the law enforcers scold him bloody.
"Then how do you explain why you insulted me like we are pigs and dogs?"
Li Yuan spoke indifferently and stared at Prince Huaiping without any fear.
"Aren't you?"
"Aren't the hundreds of Chinese and military officials in this dynasty the dogs of our Ji family? You are the ministers of the Wei Dynasty, and the Wei Dynasty belongs to our Ji family. Is this the king's mistake?"
As soon as this statement came out, the whole court went into a panic.
Prince Huaiping was really crazy. In front of His Majesty, he dared to say such things and was so humiliating. The whole court was furious.
They are the ministers of the Wei Dynasty, and there is nothing wrong with that, but they are assisting His Majesty, and His Majesty is assisting the people of the world. They are not slaves, pigs, or dogs, but ministers for the people of the world.
In the words of Prince Huaiping, they became the dogs of the Wei Dynasty and the emperor's dogs. This kind of humiliation was heartbreaking.
"Prince Huaiping, you are arrogant!"
"You are really arrogant."
"Shame, shame, such a shame."
"Prince Huaiping, are you humiliating us?"
"I beg your Majesty to severely punish Prince Huaiping."
"We sincerely request your Majesty to severely punish Prince Huaiping."
Voices rang out one after another, including civil servants, military officers, and Confucian officials. These words were too unpleasant to hear. Calling them pigs and dogs was a great shame and humiliation for them. They all spoke together, asking Your Majesty to punish them severely.
But Prince Huaiping laughed. He had completely let go. He was already going to be unlucky anyway, so why not have some fun?
This is what he is sure of!
Your Majesty dare not kill him!
Furthermore, everyone is afraid of Your Majesty, but he is not afraid. It is even said that every county king is not afraid. In terms of seniority, they are the same seniority as the empress. Furthermore, the empress does not completely control the Wei Dynasty.
What about being arrogant? What about being domineering?
I am the king of Wei, who dares to touch me? Who dares to kill me?
As long as his father is around, no one dares to kill him, and the reason why he is so arrogant is deliberately displayed in front of Xu Qingxiao. He knows that what he just said can offend many people.
But he just wants Xu Qingxiao to look at him. Even if he is so arrogant, even if he is so arrogant, in the end, his majesty will not kill him. His majesty still does not dare to kill him. The civil and military officials of the entire dynasty are just a bunch of barking dogs.
.
Hahahahaha!
However, at this time, the empress's voice sounded.
"Here comes someone."
"Thirty palms and mouths."
The empress' voice fell and was very calm, but when the voice came up, two golden-armored guards walked in, expressionless, and directly suppressed Prince Huaiping.
"Your Majesty, I am the king of the Wei Dynasty. If you humiliate me like this, you are also discrediting the royal family. Please think again."
At this moment, Prince Huaiping frowned. He frowned not because of fear, but because he did not expect that the empress would slap his mouth. This was a shame for him.
So when he opened his mouth, he directly played the family card.
But this sentence made him even more domineering. The person in front of him was the emperor, his majesty, the emperor of Wei Dynasty, but Prince Huaiping actually dared to make his majesty think twice?
It's so arrogant that it knows no bounds.
However, the empress did not speak, and the golden-armored guards did not hesitate to slap Prince Huaiping on the mouth.
Snapped!
Snapped!
Snapped!
Each slap was extremely clear, and the sound of the slap echoed in the hall.
Prince Huaiping did not resist. No matter how arrogant he was, he knew that he could not be arrogant in front of His Majesty. If he was really arrogant, he would still not die, but it would bring great trouble to his father.
So he endured it.
There is still some sense in him, he is angry, stubborn and extreme, but he is not stupid.
Blocking the case will not affect you in any way.
If I really kill Xu Qingxiao, it won't affect me at all, it's just a dog.
Bullying the Minister of Punishment will not affect anything, it is just a dog.
Killing the Beijing soldiers will have no impact. Except for the royal family, they are all the dogs of the Wei Dynasty.
What is he afraid of?
In fact, if one digs into his inner thoughts, Prince Huaiping doesn't take the empress seriously at all.
For a woman to become emperor is a huge irony in itself, but he doesn't understand many things. Why the empress came to the throne? He doesn't know. His father didn't say these things. He only told himself not to provoke the empress no matter what.
So he calmed down and did not continue to seek death.
But he also kept this grudge in his heart. Part of it was blamed on the empress, but more of it was blamed on Xu Qingxiao.
He remembered every slap.
It was Xu Qingxiao who caused him to be like this.
The thirty slaps on the mouth were over quickly.
Two golden-armored guards put Prince Huaiping down, and the latter slowly stood up, restraining some of his arrogance, but his eyes were still domineering.
That's what it means to be confident.
On the dragon chair, the empress glanced at Prince Huaiping indifferently. She did not say anything about this matter, but instead focused her eyes on Xu Qingxiao.
"Xu Qingxiao, I ordered you to investigate the case. How is your investigation going now?"
The empress opened her mouth and asked like this.
She did not talk about what happened between Xu Qingxiao and Prince Huaiping today, nor did she pursue the matter, because the core of these matters revolved around the 'Pingqiu Mansion Disaster Relief Case'. To put it bluntly, if Xu Qingxiao produced substantial evidence.
If Xu Qingxiao wins, Prince Huaiping will be severely punished.
But if Xu Qingxiao can't get it out, then Xu Qingxiao will be finished, and he will have to pay a heavy price for all the things he did before.
So instead of wasting time, let's get straight to the point.
"Reply, your majesty, my minister, Xu Qingxiao, has thoroughly investigated the Pingqiu Mansion disaster relief case."
Xu Qingxiao spoke, and his words surprised everyone in the civil and military court. They knew that Xu Qingxiao must have some confidence if he dared to touch Prince Huaiping, but hearing Xu Qingxiao's tone, it seemed that they had found substantial evidence.
"explain."
The empress spoke up and asked Xu Qingxiao to speak frankly.
"Your Majesty, I took over this case and spent all day and night investigating it. Finally, the day before yesterday, I discovered several things."
"The first five people who handled the case all raised questions in the first paragraph, but then immediately changed their words in the second paragraph. I believe that they were under coercion and someone was secretly preventing them from handling the case."
"Furthermore, except for Li Jianquan, the other four people all died in vain. Although they died in a normal way, there must be something fishy about one of them going crazy and four dying."
"So Zhang Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment sent someone to escort Li Jianquan to the capital. I interrogated him all night. Finally, I learned that the king of Huaiping County was the real culprit behind the scenes. Zhang Nantian was an innocent person who was killed by the king of Huaiping County. Even Zhang Nantian, the king of Pingqiu Prefecture,
The death of the whole family was also committed by Prince Huaiping alone."
Xu Qingxiao opened her mouth and spoke word by word.
But when the voice fell, Prince Huaiping's laughter rang out.
"Hahahahaha!"
"Xu Qingxiao, I thought you had found some evidence, but I didn't expect that you were talking nonsense here."
"Li Jianquan is already crazy. Why do you interrogate him all night long? How can a madman remember so many things?"
Prince Huaiping laughed, he really laughed. At first, he really thought that Xu Qingxiao had some substantial evidence, but what he didn't expect was that Xu Qingxiao was full of lies.
He knew very well whether Li Jianquan had gone crazy.
So Xu Qingxiao was just making things up here.
"Return to Your Majesty."
Xu Qingxiao continued to speak.
"Li Jianquan is indeed crazy, but I didn't find out through asking. I discovered that Li Jianquan had a scar on his abdomen. This scar is very strange. I'm investigating the origin of Li Jianquan's scar."
"I learned that Li Jianquan was chasing the thief and was stabbed by the latter. However, Li Jianquan was experienced and never underestimated his enemies. Therefore, I thought there was some suspense in the scar, so I knocked Li Jianquan out."
"The wound was cut open and a secret letter was found hidden inside. The minister then sutured Li Jianquan's wound and sent it to the hospital for treatment. Your Majesty can send someone to check."
Xu Qingxiao opened her mouth, told the truth, and then took out the secret letter and presented it.
At that moment, Zhao Waner walked down from the palace, came to Xu Qingxiao, took out the secret letter, and then went to His Majesty and handed it to the latter.
At this moment, Prince Huaiping showed a look of surprise in his eyes.
He didn't have any fear, he was just surprised that the secret letter was actually hidden in Li Jianquan's abdomen. He had miscalculated on this point.
The secret letter was revealed and Xu Qingxiao's voice sounded again.
"This secret letter was written by Zhang Nantian, the Prince of Pingqiu Prefecture. The content stated that when the disaster relief money arrived at Pingqiu Prefecture, there was already a shortage of 25 million taels. However, he wanted to report to the court, but was stopped by Prince Huaiping.
Down."
"The prince of Huaiping County is willing to give him one million taels of silver to shut him up. At the same time, he will exchange five million taels of silver for low-grade chaff that neither pigs nor dogs can eat. It will be used as food so that the people can breathe a sigh of relief."
"Zhang Nantian pretended to agree, but in fact he had a plan to expose it. He never wanted to be found out by the Duke of Huaiping, who intimidated Zhang Nantian and even threatened the lives of his whole family."
"Fu Jun Zhang Nantian was an upright official and refused to accept the wishes of the Huaiping County Prince. Therefore, the whole family was brutally murdered. Zhang Fujun's youngest son had his eyes gouged out alive, and his wife had all her fingernails pulled out. The process was extremely cruel.
.”
"My lord, it's hard to put into words, and I can't say it out loud."
"I hope your Majesty will learn from this."
When Xu Qingxiao said this, he no longer wanted to continue reading. The viciousness of the Huaiping County Prince was extremely rare and related to his character. He was extremely cruel. Even if such a person had not offended him, Xu Qingxiao would not allow him to live.
At this moment, the civil and military officials also frowned. They had actually guessed that he was related to Prince Huaiping before, but there was not enough evidence or relevant physical evidence, so they were just suspicious.
Now that Xu Qingxiao has produced the physical evidence of the secret letter, naturally, they can be sure that this is what Prince Huaiping did.
Especially after hearing Xu Qingxiao's words, their eyes showed coldness. They killed innocent people, which was against human common sense and lacked any moral character.
Everyone hates this kind of person, but in the current matter, they can't intervene or say anything. They can only wait for His Majesty to find out.
"ridiculous!"
At this moment, Prince Huaiping was still aloof and fearless.
"Can a secret letter prove that I killed him?"
"The king wants to ask you, if this secret letter is written by the minister of the court? It is written by other princes, does that mean that they are the culprits?"
"Furthermore, I have no interaction with Zhang Nantian, so this evidence is insufficient! And I can suspect that you are fabricating evidence."
Prince Huaiping sneered again and again.
He knew there was a secret letter but could never find it, but so what? Even if someone came out with it, he could still refute it.
There is no real evidence, everything is just conjecture and possibility.
If it were possible, His Majesty would not be able to condemn himself, and he would still be the prince.
However, at this time, Xu Qingxiao continued to speak.
"Your Majesty, it is indeed impossible to convict based on this secret letter alone, but I have ironclad evidence."
When Xu Qingxiao said this, everyone in the room was surprised. It was impossible that they didn't know about the Pingqiu Mansion disaster relief case, and they had even discussed it countless times.
We have even set our sights on Prince Huaiping and even Prince Huaining for a long time. But the problem is that there is no irrefutable evidence. How can you prove it? Just say it? This is unrealistic.
They talk about the rules in the court and talk about the evidence outside the court. If no evidence can be produced, even if it is really the King of Huaiping who killed him, so what?
But what I didn't expect was that Xu Qingxiao actually had ironclad evidence.
"What's the evidence?"
The empress spoke.
"The cause of Zhang Nantian's death is strange. The Qi veins in his body were forcibly opened. It was not due to swallowing spiritual fruit. But to open other people's Qi veins, strong Qi is needed. Therefore, as long as Zhang Nantian's Qi veins from Zhang Fujun were taken out, a peerless expert was invited to verify it.
, you can know.”
Xu Qingxiao said this.
If you ask a peerless expert to check the residual true energy in your veins, you can find out the residual true energy. This method is very good and very effective, because the Huanglong Great True Qi cultivated by Prince Huaiping is not only the only one in the world, but it is the only one in the world.
There are not many practitioners of this kind of technique.
At least for now, it is the Huaiping County Prince Meeting, so if there is really residual Huanglong Qi in his Qi, then he can be proven guilty.
But some people couldn't help but say it.
"Zhang Nantian's body had been torn into pieces and dumped in the wilderness. How can it be found now, decades later?"
Someone raised a question, not to help Prince Huaiping, but to ask, after all, the body was gone. Even if your logic is correct, the question is, how did you find Zhang Nantian's body?
All civil and military officials in the dynasty were curious.
But Xu Qingxiao opened her mouth and said.
"This issue made me feel very sad at first, but I thought that if Mr. Zhang was really wronged, then he would not be a corrupt official, but an upright official. After all, he could resist the bribe of one million silver taels from the prince of Huaiping County."
"You must also leave this secret letter. Such people are naturally honest and upright. Only the common people can really decide who is an upright official and who is a corrupt official."
"Therefore, the official sent people to search, and sure enough, it was found that some people took pity on Zhang Fujun's body and buried it properly. Therefore, although the official couldn't bear it, he could dig up the grave for Zhang Fujun's innocence.
corpse."
"Now the Qi veins have been taken out."
When saying this, Xu Qingxiao looked at the empress, and then slowly spoke.
"Your Majesty, can you present the evidence?"
Xu Qingxiao asked.
In fact, he made all these up, and his words were seamless and logical, but he didn't have Zhang Nantian's body.
But I don’t have it, but Your Majesty does.
It is not difficult at all to forge evidence using the Empress of Wei's methods.
However, what Xu Qingxiao is more worried about now is that if the empress does not provide evidence, she does not want to make the matter bigger.
Of course, the possibility of this is almost zero. If the empress is unwilling to forge evidence, then she implicitly agrees that it is completely unnecessary for her to make such a fuss.
"Cheng."
The next moment, the Queen's voice sounded.
Soon, a eunuch came up with a blackened Qi Vein. The Qi Vein had been blackened and corrupted for a long time.
"Your Majesty, this thing is Zhang Fujun's Qi. Now it only needs to be tested by others to know whether it is true or false."
Xu Qingxiao opened her mouth and said this.
Prince Huaiping, on the other hand, looked at all this with indifference. There was no trace of panic in his eyes, but he was extremely confident.
"Verify."
The next moment, the voice of the Empress sounded, and an old man suddenly walked in slowly from outside the palace. The old man emitted a light red light and disappeared into the Qi Veins.
In an instant, a slight dragon roar sounded.
"Roar!"
At this moment, the whole hall was in an uproar as the shadow of a yellow dragon condensed out of the energy veins.
"Huang Long is really angry."
"This is really Huanglong's great energy!"
"Prince Huaiping, aren't you still going to obey the law?"
"Prince Huaiping, I didn't expect you to do such a heinous act!"
"Prince Huaiping, are you still making excuses?"
There were reprimands one after another. When the irrefutable evidence appeared, all the officials roared. They embezzled 20 million taels of silver, killed the whole family, and even killed all the investigators in order to avoid future troubles.
Such methods and cruelty are truly unworthy of human beings.
"impossible!"
However, in the face of the reprimands from the civil and military officials of the court, Prince Huaiping shouted loudly. His voice was heard above everyone else, and the court fell silent at this moment.
"This is absolutely impossible."
Prince Huaiping watched this scene intently, and then looked at Xu Qingxiao, his eyes full of disbelief.
"Your Majesty, now that there is irrefutable evidence, I hope that your Majesty will issue an order that the Prince of Huaiping County embezzled 20 million silver and massacred Zhang Nantian's family with cruel methods. He also drove Li Jianquan crazy and killed Zhang Wang and four others. I don't know how many innocent people died in his arms.
In the hands of Prince Ping."
"Millions of innocent people in Pingqiu Prefecture died in famine. This kind of crime cannot be tolerated by heaven and earth. I hope that your majesty will grant the death of Prince Huaiping to rectify the laws of the Wei Dynasty! To rectify the hearts of the people and restore peace to the world!"
"My lord! Xu Qingxiao, please plead!"
Xu Qingxiao opened his mouth, and he spoke to His Majesty, asking Your Majesty to grant the death of Prince Huaiping.
"This is impossible!"
But Prince Huaiping still didn't believe it. His eyes were full of disbelief. He looked at Xu Qingxiao and roared angrily.
"The evidence is irrefutable, Prince Huaiping, do you still dare to quibble?"
Xu Qingxiao's voice was like thunder, and he asked the prince of Huaiping County.
"This is not evidence, this is not evidence, this is evidence you fabricated."
Prince Huaiping roared angrily.
"This is Zhang Nantian's body. What evidence do you have to prove that this is a forgery?"
"Prince Huaiping, you are ruthless and unscrupulous, killing millions of innocent people. Are you still a human being?"
"You are cruel by nature, and cultivating Huanglong Qi has made you even more cruel and extreme. If you were not the king of the county, you would have died long ago without a burial place."
"You just have a good father, but no matter how high your father's status is, you must abdicate today."
"Ah!"
Xu Qingxiao denounced angrily, especially at the end, with a mocking look in her eyes, as if she was telling Prince Huaiping that I am just the head of the Criminal Department, but I will still punish you for your crimes.
Xu Qingxiao deliberately angered Prince Huaiping because his goal has not been truly achieved.
"You are presumptuous!"
"You are brave!"
"You are arrogant!"
Feeling the mocking look in Xu Qingxiao's eyes, Prince Huaiping became furious. He roared angrily and pointed at Xu Qingxiao, wishing he could slap Xu Qingxiao to death right now.
"Let your dog bark, today's evidence is as solid as a mountain, you will die without a doubt."
Xu Qingxiao spoke again, and with a bark, he was scolding so freely that all the officials felt comfortable.
But Prince Huaiping roared angrily.
"This is impossible! This is definitely not Zhang Nantian's body."
Prince Huaiping roared angrily, his veins exposed, he roared like this.
He himself is extremely paranoid, extremely agitated, and extremely arrogant. This person has serious mental problems and cannot stand being stimulated.
"Why do you say this is not Zhang Nantian's body?"
"Produce evidence?"
Xu Qingxiao roared angrily, angering Prince Huaiping again and again.
"Zhang Nantian's body was destroyed by my king a long time ago. Do you really think that I am stupid? His body was burned to the ground before my eyes!"
"Zhang Nantian is completely dead. His whole family is gone. Can you still go back in time and get the body back? Xu Qingxiao!"
Prince Huaiping's roar sounded.
Almost hysterical.
However, this sentence was spoken.
The court hall was completely quiet.
All civil and military officials were stunned.
Everyone was stunned, except the empress and Xu Qingxiao.
With what Prince Huaiping just said, he directly admitted that he was the culprit.
It doesn't matter whether there is evidence or not now.
Prince Huaiping confessed.
"Say it!"
"Tell me, this is not perjury. What is it?"
Prince Huaiping was still extreme, he said angrily and asked Xu Qingxiao.
However, Xu Qingxiao retracted all expressions and looked at the empress on the dragon throne calmly.
"Your Majesty, I have investigated the Pingqiu Mansion disaster relief case. I hope your Majesty will make a decision."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone completely understood it at this moment.
Xu Qingxiao cheated.
This aura definitely did not belong to Zhang Nantian, but was forged by Xu Qingxiao. The purpose was to make Prince Huaiping tell the truth.
This is the ironclad evidence Xu Qingxiao said.
He knew the character of Prince Huaiping, so he deliberately angered him. First, he used a secret letter to confuse Prince Huaiping, making him understand that Xu Qingxiao had evidence, and then produced perjury.
After angering Prince Huaiping again and again, Xu Qingxiao finally succeeded.
But in fact, it doesn't matter even if Xu Qingxiao fails, because Prince Huaiping can't explain clearly whether this is Zhang Nantian's energy.
If you present evidence, it is equivalent to admitting it.
If no evidence is produced and the explanation is not clear, there will still be serious suspicions.
And all the decisions are in the hands of the empress. If she wants Prince Huaiping to die, then Prince Huaiping must die.
Quiet.
Quiet.
Deadly quiet.
At this moment, Prince Huaiping completely understood that he had been fooled.
"Xu Qingxiao, did you lie to me?"
Prince Huaiping's eyes were about to burst, as if a ball of flame was about to burst out from his eyes.
His momentum surged, but the next moment, the old man in the hall raised his hand.
Boom.
Like a mountain suppressing him, Prince Huaiping was pressed to the ground on the spot, like a dead dog, while Xu Qingxiao stood aside, aloof.
Fury, fury, fury.
Prince Huaiping struggled frantically, but facing the true masters of the Wei Dynasty, he, a fifth-level warrior, was still not enough.
"You dare to be so arrogant in the court."
"Prince Huaiping, you are really lawless."
An official couldn't help but angrily rebuked him. He had never seen such an arrogant person, and he had never thought that Prince Huaiping could be so arrogant.
"I beseech your Majesty, please convict me!"
"Prince Huaiping has committed such a great evil, and I hope your Majesty will convict him."
"I, please ask your majesty to grant death to Prince Huaiping."
At this moment, all civil and military officials in the court spoke out. Since the evidence was irrefutable, Prince Huaiping was really going to die.
He did too many evil things, and every one of them was shocking.
If we don't kill him, it will really be difficult to calm the hearts of the people in the world.
It's hard to calm their hearts.
And on the dragon throne.
The empress was silent. She didn't speak. No one knew what she was thinking.
Just like that, a quarter of an hour later.
Finally, a voice sounded.
"Your Majesty! Prince Huaining wants to see you!"
The eunuch's voice sounded, and at this moment everyone finally understood what the empress was waiting for.
Wait for Prince Huaining to come.
But everyone couldn't help but frown. Although Prince Huaining had a very high status and held great power, even so, his son Prince Huaiping caused such a big thing.
It's impossible not to kill.
This is a capital crime, a serious capital crime.
They were curious about what Prince Huaining would do to rescue his son.
This is almost a certain death situation.
"Xuan."
The empress spoke calmly.
Not long after, a figure slowly appeared outside the hall.
An old figure, holding a cane, walked in tremblingly.
This is an old man with white hair. He looks extremely frail and his eyes are extremely cloudy. He is wearing a python robe.
Holding a tray in his left hand, he walked into the hall.
"The sinful minister Huai Ning is ashamed of the royal family, his Majesty, and the people of the world."
"The son of the guilty minister has committed a heinous crime. The guilty minister is truly unworthy of being his father."
"But I beg your Majesty to spare my son's life. My son is like this because the guilty minister failed to teach him well, and also because he relies on the guilty minister's power, is lawless, and has no regard for the king's laws."
"Therefore, today, the guilty minister has sent me the Qilin Soldier Talisman. From now on, the guilty minister will no longer have any power. I will teach my son carefully and let him repent in this life. I hope Your Majesty has mercy on you."
The voice was old and full of sadness. After arriving at the main hall, he knelt down directly on the ground, pushed out the tray in his hand, and burst into tears.
But as soon as these words came out, everyone in the court was stunned.
Even Xu Qingxiao's expression changed.
Qilin Soldier Talisman!
The military talisman of the Qilin Army of the Great Wei Dynasty. Prince Huaining actually gave this thing in exchange for the life of Prince Huaiping?
This is impossible!
The Qilin Army is one of the five major military camps of the Wei Dynasty. It has millions of people and such a huge force. To put it bluntly, it is the capital of rebellion. If we really want to rebel, I dare not say that we can win, but at least it will make the Wei Dynasty.
You'll suffer a huge loss.
Especially for the current Wei Dynasty, if the Qilin Army rebels, the Wei Dynasty will face unprecedented challenges.
In other words, if anyone were to stand in Prince Huaining's shoes, it wouldn't matter if his son died, but if the Qilin Soldier Talisman was handed over, it would be a real loss of blood, which could not be exchanged for ten sons.
This is impossible!
What made the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty even more shocked was that His Majesty's plan turned out to be a unicorn military talisman.
After struggling for so long, the empress had already thought of this plan from the moment Xu Qingxiao entered the court.
Everything is going according to the empress' plan.
First, Xu Qingxiao was arranged to go to the Ministry of Civil Affairs. After being rejected, he was arranged to go to the Ministry of Punishment. It seemed that he was retreating in order to advance, but it was calculated that Xu Qingxiao would be benched.
It was also estimated that the Pingqiu Mansion disaster relief case would be handed over to Xu Qingxiao, and then Xu Qingxiao made a big fuss at the Ministry of Justice, and His Majesty asked it to review the case.
If Xu Qingxiao is found out, then Prince Huaiping will be convicted. If Xu Qingxiao is not found out, then Xu Qingxiao's talents can be revealed. At the same time, the empress has other methods.
In this matter, Prince Huaiping will undoubtedly die, but the empress is also sure that Prince Huaining will offer the Qilin Talisman in exchange.
Although I don’t know why Prince Huaining did this? He clearly had reasons and opportunities to stop Prince Huaiping from committing stupidity, just like when he made a big fuss in the Ministry of Punishment, he stepped in to stop it.
But today Prince Huaining did not do this, but let Prince Huaiping do whatever he wanted.
I don’t know why the empress is so sure that Prince Huaining will hand over the Qilin Talisman.
But what everyone knows is this.
All in all!
Everything!
It's all just a transaction.
A political transaction, the life of Prince Huaiping was exchanged for the Qilin Soldier Talisman.
"In this matter, Prince Huaiping has committed a heinous crime and deserves to be executed."
"However, it is the fault of the father that the son does not teach. Huaiping is arrogant because of his father's power. Now Prince Huaining hands over the Qilin Soldier Talisman."
"I am willing to be disarmed and return to the fields. I will forgive Huaiping's death penalty, but he will not be able to escape the crime of living. I will deprive Huaiping of the throne, remove his name from the clan, and the ten generations of Huaiping's descendants will not be allowed to enter the capital as officials. I hope that Huaiping will change his past mistakes."
"However, if you dare to make mistakes again, I will never forgive you lightly."
"My dear friends, what do you think?"
At this moment, the empress spoke.
Her goal was achieved.
Qilin Soldier Talisman!
As for the Prince of Huaiping County, he was removed from the throne and removed from the clan mansion, which was already considered punishment.
Although compared to the mistakes made, this punishment is nothing, but with the addition of the Qilin Soldier Talisman, it can indeed be smoothed over.
It's even a bit beyond imagination.
After all, the Qilin Soldier Talisman not only allows His Majesty to control the military, but more importantly, it makes the country more stable and many things can be done more smoothly.
Therefore, the civil and military officials did not continue to speak.
The life of Prince Huaiping is worth exchanging for the Qilin Soldier Talisman. It's worth it.
But all of this is from a political perspective.
Speaking from the perspective of the court.
So they agree.
"My ministers, I obey the decree! Long live my emperor! Long live my emperor!"
The officials spoke up and agreed to the deal, which was a good thing for the country.
Prince Huaining, on the other hand, burst into tears of gratitude and said, "Thank you very much, Your Majesty, for your kindness! I will teach Huaiping a good lesson."
Everything seemed to be arranged.
Everything has already been marked with a price.
In the court hall, Xu Qingxiao was silent.
Prince Huaiping, who was lying on the ground, looked at him at this moment.
This gaze is full of.
Smile!
A big smile!
Arrogant smile!
It seems to be like saying again, what if you condemn me? What if I kill someone? What if millions of people die?
Yes, I am a heinous person.
But so what?
I said, I can't die!
But...you have to die!
Hahahahaha!
Prince Huaiping did not laugh out loud, but in his heart, there was an extremely harsh laughter.
The provocation in his eyes.
The arrogance in the eyes.
The madness in the eyes.
It looks extremely dazzling.
All civil and military officials in the dynasty bowed their heads.
But Xu Qingxiao was the only one who did not bow her head.
Just at this moment.
A voice sounded.
"Official! I don't agree!"
The voice sounded, and at this moment, the expressions of both civil and military officials in the court changed slightly.
