"Your Majesty, it is a crime to use Wufu Powder privately, but the source of Wufu Powder must be found out. There must be something fishy about this matter." Another more traditional official stood up and said.
"I know this well. Since Bai Yiyi used Wu Fu Powder, he must have gotten it from the Bai family. Back then, I gave General Bai Wu Fu Powder to punish his subordinates. It would not be surprising if it was left behind.
Bai Yiyi, right?" Ximen Xianchu asked.
"Yes." Bai Yiyi glanced at the queen and nodded. She followed Ximen Xianchu's wishes to excuse the queen, just thinking that she could speak for herself without being involved.
"The matter is very clear. The prince broke the law and is as guilty as the common people. Bai Yiyi, you used prohibited drugs for private purposes first, and then deliberately killed the royal bloodline later. You are punished by death. Today in front of many relatives, relatives, courtiers and officials of the emperor,
It’s not easy for me to tolerate you. Although you are an orphan of an important minister, you have committed a serious crime and there are laws to prove it. I can’t tolerate it either.” Ximen Xianchu’s expression was very serious.
Regarding Ximen Xianchu's verdict, Bai Zhanfeng remained silent, kneeling in front of the emperor, not daring to look at Bai Yiyi behind her. The emperor's affection for her had reached this point, and she could no longer be ignorant. She could only keep it in her heart.
Bai Yiyi let out a sigh.
Bai Yiyi looked at Bai Zhanfeng's unmoved back, and her heart felt cold. Is this the aunt who treats her like a mother?
Ximen Hao, who had been silent all this time, completely understood Su Ranhua's purpose of looking forward to this New Year's Eve feast. She did not take any action, or she took advantage of the short time that she did not notice to make Bai Yiyi lose her mind.
After a while, he admitted what he had done.
Bai Yiyi would not admit such a serious matter easily, especially without any evidence. But just now, when he supported Bai Yiyi who had just returned to Showa Hall, he felt her stiffness and fear.
She truly believed that she had been poisoned by Wu Fu Powder, and she was extremely frightened and spoke indiscriminately in front of everyone.
What could Su Ranhua do as soon as she went out? Ximen Hao couldn't figure it out. He just realized that Su Ranhua could not leave his eyes for a moment. Even if he blinked, he would miss her little moves.
But, can he watch Bai Yiyi be executed?
Ximen Hao glanced at the queen who was moved by the emperor and gave up the idea of speaking for Bai Yiyi, then glanced at Su Ranhua who was determined to kill Bai Yiyi, and strode into the palace.
"Father, my son is willing to plead guilty for Bai Yiyi." Ximen Hao knelt in front of Ximen Xianchu and said, "Yiyi has been with my son since he was a child, and suddenly someone intervened. It was hard to accept that he had done something wrong. Please father.
In view of the past merits of the Bai family, the emperor allowed his son to plead guilty on her behalf and spare her from death."
Ximen Hao did not ask for immunity for Bai Yiyi. At this time, even the court officials who had cherished the Bai family in the past had no reason to plead for Bai Yiyi. Bai Yiyi's conviction was justified, and he could only use his status as a prince as a substitute for punishment to save Bai Yiyi's life.
.
"Are you going to plead guilty for her?" Ximen Xianchu stared at Ximen Hao with deep eyes. If he had Su Ranhua in his heart, what would be his attitude towards Bai Yiyi? He originally thought that Ximen Hao chose to be trapped in Yeting for Su Ranhua.
Xuan, he would no longer be deeply affectionate towards Bai Yiyi, at least he would not have to step into Yitingxuan twice in just one month.
"Yes." Ximen Hao's attitude was extremely firm.
Bai Yiyi turned to look at him. She was happy that Ximen Hao could stand up for her, but looking at the eyes that met hers, there was no pity, but more of a responsibility.
Haha, it turns out that his love for her after so many years was really just a responsibility. At this time, Bai Yiyi finally understood Ximen Hao's heart.
"Your Majesty," Su Ranhua said coldly from the side, "I asked Bai Yiyi to plead guilty tonight so that everyone can see her hypocrisy and make her unable to justify what she has done. You plead guilty on her behalf,
It's a shield for her. Just imagine **'s anger when she learned about Musk. Shouldn't ** stand in front of Bai Yiyi today to blame her for me and seek justice for me? "
"You know why I want to save Yiyi." Ximen Hao looked at Su Ranhua. He had already told Su Ranhua about the Bai family in the canyon. Su Ranhua should understand that he was not protecting Bai Yiyi because he wanted to protect her.
If she wanted justice, he would give it to her on behalf of Bai Yiyi.
"You can protect Bai Yiyi so wholeheartedly, or you can beat a maid to death ruthlessly." Su Ranhua stood up and walked to Ximen Hao, "The same life is a world of difference in your eyes, but to me
They say it’s all the same, including Liu’er who was almost poisoned to death.”
"How dare you compare Xiao Cui to Xiao Cui. Xiao Cui was beaten to death, but what was the reason for her beating?" Ximen Hao stood up and locked eyes with Su Ran Hua.
Su Ranhua gently glanced at the queen who was already out of touch. Originally, she wanted to drag Bai Zhanfeng into the water and point out the source of Bai Yiyi's Wu Fu Powder, because that would explain her sneaking out of Wutong Residence and using Ximen's help.
The purpose of Yi entering the palace was to severely injure the queen who had always disliked her.
But before Ximen Xianchu said that Wufusan came from the Bai family, she gave up the idea. Even if Ximen Hao dissatisfied with his mother, she still wanted to save face for the queen for Ximen Hao. After all, the queen was Ximen Hao.
mother-in-law.
Because of this idea, Su Ranhua hid the purpose of entering the palace deep in her heart, and even regretted it. In fact, there was no need for her to enter the palace to prove the origin of Wufusan. As long as Bai Yiyi personally admitted what she had done
That's all.
Su Ranhua looked at Ximen Hao coldly and did not answer his question.
"Father, please issue a decree. I am willing to plead guilty for Bai Yiyi immediately!" Ximen Hao looked away from Su Ranhua's face and said to Ximen Xianqing.
Since she decided to make a big fuss on New Year's Eve, he should accompany her to make a fuss.
"Father, please protect the prince on my behalf. I don't want the prince to suffer any harm because of a sinful daughter!" Su Ranhua then prayed.
Ximen Xianchu wanted to kill Bai Yiyi in public and grant Su Ranhua's wish so that she could concentrate on doing things for him. However, he also wanted to teach Ximen Hao a lesson. One trip to Yitingxuan was not enough, so he might as well go to the second one.
Second-rate.
Ximen Hao doesn't know why Ximen Xianchu attaches great importance to Bai Yiyi's death this time. Bai Yiyi's existence is insignificant. As long as she doesn't marry him, it is meaningless. But now if Bai Yiyi dies, can she bring it to him?
What?
Ximen Hao glanced at Ximen Xianchu, who had no intention of killing Su Ranhua at any time. Maybe there was some secret deal between them?
He knew that Su Ranhua actually cared about Xiao Cui's death, and it would be understandable if she wanted to compare her feelings after Xiao Cui's death with Bai Yiyi's death.
Thinking of this, Ximen Hao cupped his hands and said, "Father, there is no need to hesitate. I will go to Ye Tingxuan to suffer."
Then he turned to Su Ranhua and said, "I'm going to Ye Tingxuan right now to give Xiao Cui an explanation for his death!"
After the sound fell, he strode towards the outside of Showa Hall.
