Hongli looked at him coldly and said in a cold voice: "What is your identity? When will it be your turn to criticize the imperial concubine?"
Wei's father was shocked and kowtowed quickly: "You deserve to die, but what you say is true. I hope your Majesty will tell you the truth!"
Hongli did not speak, but showed a cold smile. Wei Jingxuan had been with Hongli for several years and had an understanding of his character. As soon as she saw his appearance, she knew something was wrong. When she wanted to plead for her father, Hongli
Already he said: "Sixi, if some common people criticize the imperial concubine, what crime should they be punished for?"
Si Xi bowed and said: "Report to the Emperor, he shall be sentenced to death!"
Hearing this, Father Wei's whole body softened. He tried hard to open his mouth to ask for mercy, but no sound came out. As for the others, who were no better than him, they were all frightened.
Wei Jingxuan reacted the fastest and said in a panic: "Your Majesty, although my father is guilty, he is also out of love for his daughter, just like the Emperor loves Wen Yu. Besides, today is the day when Master Fu and A Luo are happy. It would be unavoidable if there is blood.
It's unlucky, please ask the emperor to spare my father the death penalty."
Seeing Wei Jingxuan mention Wen Yu, Hongli's face turned slightly, but he was not willing to let Wei's father go, and said coldly: "Okay, I will spare his life, but the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped. If he is dragged down, he will be punished three times."
Ten sticks!"
Si Xi agreed and ordered the guards to pull down the earth-colored Father Wei. Not long after, there was a sound of wailing, which made Wei De and others tremble with fear. It was not until this moment that they truly realized the majesty and power of the royal family.
The slightest mistake could lead to death.
After an unknown amount of time, the wailing finally stopped, and Sixi walked in to tell her, "Your Majesty, thirty canes have been given."
Although Wei's mother was very worried about Wei's father's condition and didn't know whether he was seriously injured, no one dared to take any action at this time to avoid offending Hongli again.
"Your Majesty..." As soon as Wei Jingxuan said two words, Hongli interrupted: "Listen clearly to me, I don't want to hear any more criticism of the imperial concubine, otherwise, even if it is you, I will not forgive you lightly.
"
His words made Wei Jingxuan almost crazy with anger. After swallowing the hatred, she said: "I know I was wrong. I made a mistake just now. I ask the emperor and the imperial concubine to forgive me, but I and Zheng Feng took it seriously."
It doesn't have anything to do with it. I don't know that he hasn't gotten married in these years, let alone that he is waiting for me. I beg the emperor to find out."
Zheng Feng was afraid that something might happen to Wei Jingxuan, so he said anxiously: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, everything is my own business and has nothing to do with Mr. Wei. You... don't blame her, it has nothing to do with her."
Hongli glanced at them indifferently and said in a cold voice: "Take Zheng Feng to the prison and wait for his fate. As for the Wei family, drive them out of the Fu Mansion immediately." After saying that, he stood up and said, "Let's drive back to the palace!"
He didn't mention Wei Jingxuan, as if he had spared her, but the latter saw the anger in his eyes and knew that the matter was not over. He... would inevitably be punished, but he didn't know... whether he would take it away.
She has only been promoted to the noble position for a month, I hope not.
After Hongli and others left, Wei's mother hurriedly walked out and picked up Wei's father who was lying limply on the ground. The latter gasped and said: "What...how is it?"
"I don't know either. The emperor imprisoned Zheng Feng in the sky prison and ordered us to leave here immediately..." Before Wei's mother finished speaking, Wei's father said: "I'm asking Jingxuan, is she... okay?
?”
"The emperor didn't say anything. He just took her back to the palace. I think it won't be a big deal. But you were beaten like this. What should you do?" As she said this, Mother Wei couldn't help but shed tears.
Father Wei endured the pain and said: "Don't worry, you won't die. That imperial concubine is so vicious that she actually used Zheng Feng to harm Jingxuan. No wonder we didn't see Zheng Feng two days before we left home. It turns out he came here."
"Before, when my sister said how cruel she was, I didn't believe it, but now I have no doubts at all. I hope my sister will be safe, otherwise..." Before Wei De could finish his words, Father Wei had already scolded: "You
What nonsense are you talking about? My sister will definitely be safe and sound, and she wants to revitalize our Wei family!"
While they were talking, the guards had already begun to drive away. Wei De and Wei De helped Wei's father leave and went to find a place to stay in the inn. Every time they thought about what happened just now, they could be said to be frightened, with the exception of one person.
Along the way, Wei Xiuyan looked back at the Fu Mansion from time to time. Hongli's life and death were all in her hands;
longing for.
The Forbidden City... it must be the most beautiful and gorgeous place in the world. I really want... I really want to see it, and even live in that majestic and gorgeous palace like my sister did.
Wei Jingxuan didn't know all this. She sat in the car without saying a word, her hands on her knees clenched tightly into fists, which showed the annoyance in her heart.
Zheng Feng...how could she forget this person? When Qi Kuan said he would bring her family to Beijing, she should have thought that with Nala Xianyue's method, she must have found Zheng Feng, and then borrowed him
I had wronged myself and blamed that Zheng Feng for actually waiting for me for ten years without getting married. This time I was really killed by him.
The same goes for Hongli. Even though there was something fishy, he actually believed in Nala Xianyue without hesitation. What kind of confusion did that bitch fill him with that made him believe it like this?
No, she couldn't let Hongli continue to trust Nala Xianyue like this. She had to find a way to make Hongli lose confidence in him, so that she wouldn't be in the way of her own way.
But all this has to wait until she gets through this first. I hope Hongli will take a lenient approach for Wen Yu's sake and not demote her back to her usual position.
When I was upset, I suddenly heard a faint female singing voice, "The flowers are deep on the floor, the painted curtains are half rolled up and the east wind blows. Spring returns to the green roads, the smooth grass is tender and tender, and the weeping poplars are golden..."
The singing voice was delicate, soft and waxy, and very pleasant to listen to. Listening to it in this late night, it was as if it would take away the soul of a person. Wei Jingxuan opened the side curtain and said to Yu Liu who was following the carriage: "Where does this singing come from?"
Did it come from?"
"I'm looking for you too, but unfortunately there's no one there, and I guess I'm some distance away from this voice." When Yuliu was talking, Sixi was also saying the same thing, and this singing voice also reached Hongli's ears, and the latter
After waiting for a while, Hongli didn't speak, so he asked tentatively: "Your Majesty, would you like me to send someone to look around to see if we can find the singing woman?"
Hongli was about to speak when he suddenly smelled a faint fragrance on the tip of his nose. He had never smelled this kind of fragrance before, but it smelled so surprisingly good that he couldn't help but want to keep smelling it.
Xianyue, who was riding in the same car with him, also smelled the aroma and asked in surprise: "Where does this aroma come from?"
