Mu Yan never thought that he would have the opportunity to meet the emperor face to face
Kneeling on the ground, looking at the man lying on the bed, his face was pale, but his eyebrows were still majestic and he exuded the aura of a king. Mu Yan was unable to take his eyes away from him.
Sitting weakly on the bed, Xia Yuanfeng frowned slightly as he glanced at Mu Yan, who was kneeling on the ground. He hadn't seen him for a while.
After walking in front of the gate of hell, I woke up and heard the whole story from the confidants around me. If it was Mu Yan who did such a thing, it was definitely not impossible. After all, he personally destroyed Cangqiong Kingdom.
After all, it’s still yourself
"Get up, stop kneeling." He spoke softly to Mu Yan, who was kneeling on the ground. Xia Yuanfeng closed his eyes tiredly, "I want to hear your explanation about witchcraft."
Unexpectedly, the emperor would ask him about this matter so directly. Mu Yan was stunned for a moment, then slowly stood up. His legs, which he had never knelt on before, were a little numb and sore.
After scanning around the people in the room, Mu Yan couldn't help but feel suspicious that the Queen and Xia Mingyi were here. She had no objection, but why did Murong Zixuan also appear in this room? Who was he?
"Back to the Emperor, Mu Yan has nothing to say about this matter. I did not do it. No matter what, I will not admit it. I hope the Emperor is wise enough to investigate this matter thoroughly." He lowered his eyes and said polite official words in a low voice.
, Mu Yan was more or less helpless. If the emperor knew the truth of the matter, would he really give her justice?
"Everyone has gained the stolen goods, and you still have the nerve to quibble?!" After glaring at Mu Yan, Queen Jiang Shuying made no secret of her disgust for Mu Yan. "The things were found in your room. If it's not yours, who does it belong to?"
?Prince Xia?" There was a little cold light in Jiang Shuying's eyes. When Jiang Shuying thought of Xia Yifeng, the disgust in her eyes increased even more. Mu Yan, who had been watching her, couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
"Shut up." There was a hint of dissatisfaction in his voice. He opened his eyes slightly and glanced at Jiang Shuying who was sitting next to him. Xia Yuanfeng coughed twice and said, "Let her continue."
The corners of Mu Yan's mouth rose slightly. The emperor's move made Mu Yan's sinking mood begin to change.
"Mu Yan doesn't want to quibble, he just wants to state some facts." He stared fearlessly into the emperor's eyes. Mu Yan's move made Xia Yuanfeng startled. "I don't know what benefits I can get by killing the emperor.
You and the Queen will feel that I have always harbored hatred towards you, so there is nothing wrong with me doing that kind of thing. But what Mu Yan wants to tell you is, please don’t think too highly of me. No matter what, I am just a woman.
My country is gone, my home is gone. What strength do I have to resist, and what qualifications do I have to contend with my fate?"
Standing there with a trembling voice, Mu Yan's words penetrated into the hearts of Xia Mingyi and Murong Zixuan.
"Your Majesty" took a step forward and stood side by side with Mu Yan. Murong Zixuan narrowed his eyes with a solemn expression, "The common people are not talented. I would like to say a few words for Princess Xia. Please allow me to do so."
Unexpectedly, Murong Zixuan would stand up for Mu Yan. Xia Yuanfeng nodded, moved, and stared at the man and woman in front of him with bright eyes.
"According to the common people's opinion, the reason why the emperor fell ill this time is entirely because he was poisoned and has nothing to do with the theory of witchcraft." Paying careful attention to his words, Murong Zixuan understood that as long as he said
If you don't say it well, Mu Yan might be in danger of being beheaded.
"Whether it matters or not, it doesn't matter now." Looking at Mu Yan with deep eyes, Xia Yuanfeng raised his voice slightly, "What matters is why you have those things in your room! I want to know the reason! If it doesn't belong to you, it will."
Whose? I don't want to hear your explanation, I just want to hear the truth!" The aura of the king flowed silently in the air. He looked around at the people in the room coldly, Xia Yuanfeng frowned, "What's wrong with Feng'er today?
not coming?"
As soon as Xia Yifeng was mentioned, the atmosphere in the room instantly became more tense. Even Eunuch Li, who was standing in the distance and waiting at the door, felt a little depressed.
When the emperor woke up, there was indeed a message calling Prince Xia to come to the palace to meet the emperor. Unfortunately, one day had passed, but Prince Xia was still missing...
"Father"
Xia Mingyi, who had never spoken a word, knelt down unexpectedly. What made everyone even more surprised were the few words he blurted out next.
"The things in Princess Xia's room were put in by my son. Until now, I don't want to implicate other people anymore, so... I ask my father to convict me!"
"Yi'er, what are you talking nonsense?!" Jiang Shuying stood up nervously and looked at Xia Yuanfeng with a pale face, "Your Majesty, Yi'er is talking nonsense, you must not believe him!"
"Mother, every word of your son and minister is true. Mother, please stop defending your son and minister."
Seeing the expression on Xia Mingyi's face with a faint gaze and an indifferent smile again, Mu Yan suddenly understood what Xia Yifeng's purpose was in doing all this!
As if time had stopped, the silence in the room was suffocating. She clenched her fists hard. Mu Yan looked at Xia Mingyi kneeling on the ground in disbelief. She didn't expect that he would pay so much for himself. He was a member of a country.
The prince is the future emperor! But after these words are spoken, he is nothing... It is even difficult to determine whether his life can be saved.
She is a chess piece in Xia Yifeng's hands. She is just a chess piece. Xia Yifeng is using herself to make bets with Xia Mingyi, betting on whether Xia Mingyi will watch her die, or will risk everything for her.
crime
For Xia Mingyi, he knows better than anyone how much courage and pressure it takes to admit this matter! But now, he is still kneeling on the ground so calmly, trying hard to excuse Mu Yan
crime
"What did you say...say it again!" Xia Yuanfeng looked at the man kneeling on the ground with his head down and his sharp eyes made Xia Yuanfeng feel as if his head was about to split.
"The witchcraft doll in Princess Xia's house was put in by Erchen. Not long ago, Erchen had gone to Prince Xia's Mansion to find Princess Xia. Both his father and mother also knew that Erchen had always had a crush on Princess Xia, so
After she repeatedly rejected him, he was filled with resentment and did such a thing. Now that he has realized his mistake, I ask my father to convict him!"
"Shut up!" A slap hit Xia Mingyi's face. Jiang Shuying trembled all over and could barely stand. She knelt on the ground with a thud and kept kowtowing hard. "Your Majesty, please investigate clearly. This
This thing must not have been done by Yi'er. Your Majesty, don't listen to his nonsense. He was confused by this woman Mu Yan! How could he do such a thing? Absolutely not..."
Biting her lower lip, Mu Yan looked at the scene in front of her and suddenly felt a little helpless.
The prince premeditated the assassination of the emperor. What a heinous crime this was. How many people would lose their heads because of this...
Silently turning his head and looking at Murong Zixuan who was staring at him with a confused look on his face, Mu Yan knew that the world of Yixuan Country was really going to change!
