Chen Qingle's kowtows echoed in the hall, but Emperor Xuanlian's response was not heard for a long time.
Chen Qingle kowtowed her head very low and did not dare to get up.
On the seat, Emperor Xuanlian stared at Chen Qingle closely, his expression unclear as to whether he was happy or angry. Finally, Emperor Xuanlian spoke, his tone was calm, but every word was heartfelt.
"Qingle, do you want to do what your mother and concubines did to bring trouble to Xuanlian?"
Chen Qingle hurriedly raised her head, but before she could respond, the second prince jumped in and said, "Father, please calm down and don't worry too much about the affairs of the forty-ninth brother. Qingle, why don't you kowtow to your father and confess your sins!"
Chen Qingle replied calmly: "My son entered the palace with the order and just bowed to my father. I don't know where the crime originated from. How can my second brother convict me first? My father is still in power and he can still convict me. How can I still be guilty?"
It’s not the second brother’s turn. Is it possible that the second brother is impatient now?”
"you!"
The second prince immediately scolded: "The evidence of what you committed is conclusive and the crime is heinous. I can't convict you, but Father, God has to convict you! Chen Qingle, today is your trial, don't ramble on.
!”
Chen Qingle directly ignored the second prince and replied to Emperor Xuanlian.
"Returning to my father, the crimes committed by my mother and concubines are unforgivable. I have always taken them as a warning. I don't know what my father just said. Please make it clear!"
Emperor Xuanlian smiled calmly: "Qinglian defected and Dayu forced the border. At this time of crisis on the Xuanlian border, you ignored the overall situation and maliciously offended the Miao witches, causing the Xuanlian western border to be in danger. Isn't this a serious crime?"
Emperor Xuanlian spat out the last few words very hard, like two sharp knives directed at Chen Qingle.
Then Emperor Xuanlian waved his hand and threw a memorial in front of Chen Qingle.
"Read it carefully. It contains the accusations made by the Miao tribe against you, as well as the eyewitness testimony that you coerced Feng Mumu and killed his guards. Now that things have happened, what do you have to argue with?"
Chen Qingle picked up the memorial in front of her and looked at it carefully.
Then Chen Qingle put down the memorial and said, "Everything said in the memorial is true."
The second prince snorted: "Then you are admitting your guilt? You endanger the border, harm the country and the people, Qing Le, this is a serious crime that will punish the nine tribes!"
"Who told the second brother that I, Chen Qingle, was guilty? If it was what my father said, I, Chen Qingle, would immediately lead everyone from the Dragon King's Mansion to the Zhan Tiantai to slay him. If it was what the second brother said, then Qingle, please let him go.
Talking about madness is a transgression! Let me remind you again, King Yeluo, you have no right to convict me of meeting the Dragon King!"
Then, Chen Qingle spoke to Emperor Xuanlian: "The Miao Wu tribe's troops came to Xuanlian West Mirror. This incident was indeed caused by my son, but I feel that I was not at fault for this!"
"Our Xuanlian Dynasty, under the guidance of Yu Ming's superior clan, governs the trillions of people in the territory, and is the dynasty to which this territory is destined. The Xuanlian trial is not over yet, my son and the other three royal brothers have
The identity of the prince of the dynasty is the foundation of the Xuanlian dynasty! Who is Feng Mumu?"
"A foreigner dares to offend the Xuanlian Kingdom. If there is no punishment and he is allowed to act arbitrarily, then where is the majesty of our Xuanlian Dynasty? Can any foreigner offend the power of the Xuanlian Dynasty without being punished?
How can the Xuanlian Clan establish its majesty among all the tribes on the east coast?!"
Chen Qingle said impassionedly: "This person has offended my ministers, and my ministers have the right to punish this person on behalf of the Xuanlian Dynasty. However, my ministers did not harm his life. They only killed the attendants around him who helped the evildoers. A small punishment but a big warning."
.Now the Miao Wu people are actually at war with my Xuanlian Dynasty over such a trivial matter, Father, isn't the reason for this not obvious?"
"The Miao Wu tribe has been ambitious for a long time! They must have secretly contacted Dayu, who is stationed in the eastern border, with the intention of jointly attacking our Xuanlian Dynasty. Therefore, even if there is no such thing as the son, the Miao Wu tribe will still find an excuse to raise troops to offend!
"
"I think that by punishing Feng Mumu, I have defended the power of the Xuanlian Dynasty and have not committed any crime! I hope that my father will learn from it and don't believe in the words of villains. When the Xuanlian Dynasty is in a difficult situation, it will cause trouble within the court.
fight."
"You are sophistry!"
The second prince immediately retorted: "If you are wrong, you are wrong, and you dare to use sophistry. My father and son think that Chen Qingle's refusal to admit his mistakes is to harm the ambition of the wolf son of the Xuanlian Dynasty."
Then, a strange light flashed in the second prince's eyes.
"Furthermore, Father, just now I mentioned that Chen Qingle not only attracts thieves from outside, but also hides them from within..."
However, before the second prince finished speaking, Emperor Xuanlian raised his hand and stopped him from continuing.
"That's enough."
Emperor Xuanlian said calmly: "Hua Ye, you have nothing to do here, you should go back first."
The second prince was immediately confused.
He just wanted to expose Chen Qingle's rescue of prisoners of war in public, and accuse him of making powerful enemies outside and supporting rebels inside.
He was sent away before he finished speaking. Of course the second prince was unwilling to do so.
"But Father..."
"go out!"
Emperor Xuanlian was so angry that the second prince was so frightened that he did not dare to say anything nonsense. He had no choice but to glare at Chen Qingle and left the Xuanlian Temple with a look of reluctance.
Seeing the second prince leaving the Xuanlian Temple, Chen Qingle could finally relax a little. At this moment, only Emperor Xuanlian and him were left in the Xuanlian Temple. Emperor Xuanlian stepped down from the throne and said: "
Get up."
Chen Qingle stood up after hearing the sound, her palms already covered in sweat.
"It was really a good match just now."
"Father, you have given me the reward."
"You have indeed learned a lot over the years. You have been able to develop your own power despite being surrounded by your second son. My father is really impressed by you. And your performance just now is also very satisfactory to my father."
Emperor Xuanlian patted Chen Qingle on the shoulder: "You should know your sins."
Chen Qingle cupped her hands and said, "I understand my guilt."
"Knowing your guilt but not pleading guilty, you already have the grace of an emperor."
Emperor Xuanlian praised: "You must always remember that sitting in that seat, you are a perfect person without any fault. Even if you have committed a huge crime, as long as the dynasty does not collapse, you must try to pass the crime on to others.
, you must end up clean and tidy. Not only must you learn to do this, but you must also believe in your heart that you have no fault!"
Chen Qingle swallowed and spit.
"My son, I will be taught a lesson!"
Emperor Xuanlian continued: "But things always have to be dealt with. In fact, it is not serious. When you killed Feng Mumu's attendant and drove Feng Mumu out of the Xuanlian Empire, my father already knew about it. Now you and the Miao Wu tribe have already known it."
Negotiated."
Chen Qingle was surprised: "Then the Miao Wu tribe won't invade our Xuanlian?"
"They dare!"
Emperor Xuanlian snorted: "I'm still here, but they don't have the courage to kill Feng Mumu for a small job, but the Necromancer Curse is a big deal. If they don't ask for the Necromancer Curse back, they will definitely not follow me.
Give it up and let it go."
Then, Emperor Xuanlian looked at Chen Qingle and said: "I am very satisfied with your performance just now, but I am still very disappointed in you! The disappointment lies in the fact that you would actually ignore the overall situation for the sake of a maidservant. With such a character, what can I do?
