"Oh?" Xiao Yunxi raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at Shangguan Hui with a hint of suspicion, "Did that maid run away because she was afraid of the Shangguan family's revenge?"
Her words seemed to provide a reasonable explanation for the sudden "disappearance" of this maid. After hearing this, everyone unanimously cast their suspicious eyes on Shangguan Wenyong. Shangguan Hui has been in jail for the past two days, so how can such a person be able to do so?
Operation
The only one who can blame Shangguan Wenyong is Shangguan Wenyong. In order to clear his daughter's charges, it is indeed a 'good way' to make the maid disappear completely. Now, without the most important witness, if you want to accuse Shangguan Hui,
I'm afraid it will be difficult
…
Shangguan Wenyong's face was condensed. The maidservant was gone. It would be even more difficult for Hui'er to get away with it. Although it seemed that without the witness, the emperor could not convict Hui'er. But just then Empress Xiao made such an understatement.
In one sentence, the "disappearance" of the maid was blamed on his Shangguan family. This only deepened everyone's suspicion of Hui'er, which was not good.
At this time, Qingcheng suddenly knelt in the main hall, looking at the man on the dragon throne with tears in his eyes, "Your Majesty, Qingcheng implores you to uphold justice for the eldest sister. She is not only my eldest son, but also my elder sister."
Sister, it’s yours too.
The matter is clearly revealed. It was Shangguan Hui who brutally murdered the eldest sister Huang because she felt humiliated by her. Now, the eldest sister’s body is still cold. The emperor must not let the murderer go unpunished, and let the eldest sister Huang die in peace.
"
Seeing the situation, Xiao Yunxi also immediately stood up, blessed Feng Zheliang, and said sincerely, "I also beg the emperor, don't let the eldest princess be buried unjustly!"
Qingcheng and Xiao Yunxi took the lead, and the descendants of the famous families who had some personal relationship with Qingcheng or were attached to the Xiao family in the main hall all seconded their opinions. Hongxuan's consort also knelt on the ground with a face full of grief and indignation, and begged the emperor for punishment in a loud voice.
Murderous villains have the tendency to never give up until they achieve their goals.
Seeing that the situation was one-sided, Shangguan Wenyong couldn't help but worry. Would he still not know who the emperor was? Even if the death of the eldest princess was not caused by Hui'er, in order to appease the public's anger, maybe he would kill Hui'er.
Hui'er was pushed out as a victim to gain the reputation of a wise king. In that case, Hui'er would really be hopeless!
In desperation, Shangguan Wenyong looked at Feng Yebei, who was standing on the side of the hall without saying a word. There was no trace of worry or urgency on his face. Looking at Hui'er kneeling in the center of the hall, the same expression appeared.
Her face was calm and calm, as if the person who was about to be convicted of "murder" was not her.
Who is Shangguan Wenyong? Seeing that both of them had confident expressions on their faces, he already had an idea. Perhaps Hui'er still had a "backup" that she hadn't used yet. This girl is very smart, so I won't rely on her if I'm not sure.
Will fight.
As expected, Shangguan Hui, who was in the spotlight, not only did not show any panic, but looked at ease. She glanced at Feng Yebei, and there was a tacit understanding. Even if there was no verbal communication, Feng Yebei knew it.
What does she want.
"Come on, bring people up!"
Following Feng Yebei's order, two young and strong men dressed as guards immediately appeared in the main hall escorting Fang Guan, who was still dressed in pink.
Seeing Fang Guan, Qingcheng's eyes flashed with surprise and surprise for a moment, but she quickly covered it up with a calm expression.
"My servant Fang Guan comes to see the Emperor and Queen. May the Emperor and Queen be blessed and safe!"
As soon as Xiao Yunxi saw that Fang Guan was escorted in by two guards, she immediately pointed the finger at Shangguan Hui and sternly asked, "Shangguan Hui, it was you who arrested Fang Guan. Tell me, what are your intentions?"
