Zhu Gaolie sat on the throne, slapped his hand on the table, and said angrily: "This traitor! How dare you do such an evil thing in the palace? It is an unforgivable crime!"
Peng An lowered his head and said: "However, there are also doubts. All three people were unconscious, there was no one else around, and the person who called for help disappeared..."
"I don't want to know this, that's what you want to investigate!"
Zhu Gaolie interrupted him and said, "I just need to know, is this traitor using the ecstasy to plot against the Han family?"
The dignified prince unexpectedly took advantage of the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet to do something unruly to the imperial prince, the head wife of the current martial sage, and the royal wife of the imperial court!
If this spreads out, how will the world view the royal family!
"At this point, it seems that is the case."
Peng An was silent for a long time, feeling the overwhelming pressure coming from Zhu Gaolie, and finally spoke.
"He is really my good son!"
Zhu Gaolie's eyes turned cold and he directly announced his decision.
"According to my decree, Zhu Zhaolin will be expelled from the palace immediately and put under house arrest in Prince Chen's Mansion in the west of the city. The imperial family will take away Zhu Zhaolin's royal title and will not grant him the imperial title. During the period of house arrest, he will be under strict supervision and no one will be allowed to visit!"
"In addition, Chen Yinglong, the Marquis of Xuanwei, has worked hard for many years, devoted himself to military affairs, and served the country loyally, so he was ordered to concurrently serve as the general of the Imperial Guard. His wife, the Han family, was a virtuous and open-minded person. She bestowed the phoenix crown and harem, the sacred elixir of residence, and sheltered the three members of the Han family when they entered the court.
official."
Punish the prince heavily and compensate the Chen family.
This was Zhu Gaolie's final decision.
Inside the outer hall.
Chen Yinglong supported his wife Han, who obviously learned what happened from other people's mouths. She clutched Chen Yinglong's sleeves with her hands and looked pale.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty has his own decree."
Chen Yinglong comforted the Han family.
Concubine Chen's face was as dark as water, and her eyes were glaring at Zhu Zhaolin next to her, almost killing her.
Zhu Zhaolin lowered his eyes and stood motionless. Several old eunuchs stood on his left and right, seemingly guarding him, but actually protecting him.
As a martial saint, Chen Hou was beside him and could crush Zhu Zhaolin to death with one finger.
Naturally, they dare not be careless.
Just at this time, the door was pushed open, and Queen Wang walked in quickly, her face burning with anger, and she saw Zhu Zhaolin at a glance!
"Mother!"
When Zhu Zhaolin saw Queen Wang, he immediately became excited, burst into tears, and uttered an aggrieved voice, "My child is wronged!"
"Lin'er, what's going on! Tell your mother, she will definitely uphold justice for you!"
Queen Wang quickly came forward. Just as she was about to get closer, an old eunuch suddenly stood in front of her and said, "Queen, wait a minute."
"Why, do you even want to stop me?"
Queen Wang's face darkened.
Even though she treats Zhu Zhaolin in a doting and pampering manner, when it comes to other people, she is still the master of the harem with a mother-in-law, and the fate of everyone in the harem is in her hands!
However, the old eunuch did not change his expression: "The truth has not yet been found out. Others are not allowed to approach Your Highness. Your Majesty will decide everything. I hope the Queen will forgive me."
"Haha, this is the first time I heard that I have become someone else! Get out of my way!"
Queen Wang's face was covered with frost and she scolded coldly.
Eunuch Huang, who was following her as a confidant eunuch, stood up decisively and slapped the old eunuch: "Get away if I tell you to. If you dare to block the Queen's way, I will rebel against you!"
As soon as he waved his palm, a sneer appeared on the old eunuch's wrinkled face.
boom!
He raised his hand, and his palm suddenly swelled. His arm, which was as dry as a dead branch, was instantly filled with layers of muscles, and he squeezed Eunuch Huang's hand!
"Are you teaching us how to do things?"
With a series of clicking sounds, Eunuch Huang's fingers, palms, and wrists were all crushed!
He didn't dare to hit Queen Wang, and a little eunuch dared to be presumptuous in front of him. Yes, in his eyes, Eunuch Huang, who was in his fifties and sixties, was just a little eunuch!
He raised his hand, and Eunuch Huang rolled to the ground wailing. He didn't even look at it, his face remained calm: "Queen, please wait for His Majesty's decree."
"well……"
Queen Wang's pupils shrank, and she fearfully withdrew her eyes from the old eunuch's arm that had expanded more than ten times. She suddenly thought of the mysterious power that belonged to His Majesty.
A group of three old eunuchs composed entirely of old eunuchs!
It is said that each one is carefully selected and possesses extraordinary and superb skills!
They have been instilled in them the idea of loyalty to the emperor since they were young. They only have eyes for the emperor, and even she, the queen, is not in their eyes!
If she guessed correctly, these old eunuchs in front of her were from the Three Elders Association!
"Mother, the child is wronged..."
Zhu Zhaolin was still crying, his face full of grievances.
Concubine Chen, who was on the side, restrained herself for a long time, and finally couldn't bear it anymore, and said angrily: "Shut up! Everyone knows the truth, Zhu Zhaolin, don't think that just because you pretend to be pitiful, you can..."
"Yuan'er, stop talking. I believe that Your Majesty has his own decree."
Chen Yinglong interrupted Concubine Chen's words, his expression still as serious as water.
But the more he behaves like this, the more people dare not ignore him.
Not to mention that he was deeply trusted by Zhu Gaolie, and commanded the Longwu Guard with thousands of troops. There were 30,000 troops stationed near Shendu alone, and another 70,000 elites were stationed at various chokepoints leading to Shendu!
As a Martial Saint alone, even if he does not have military power, he can still dominate the world by relying on his personal force!
What's more, the princes and princes of the Ming Dynasty always advanced and retreated together!
Twelve princes, three kings and nine princes, together control almost half of the military power in the world, and Chen Yinglong is known as the number one marquis!
Such a person's head wife was almost plotted against by a dandy prince. If not dealt with properly, I'm afraid it would trigger a strong backlash from the entire princely line!
If it's more serious, the safety of the entire royal family may be affected!
Queen Wang pursed her lips and looked at her son with tearful eyes, then at Chen Yinglong, whose face was as dark as water, and at Concubine Chen, whose face was full of displeasure.
"Lin'er, I believe in you. If you believe in your father, he will definitely find out the truth, deal with it impartially, and give you justice."
Her eyes darkened a bit, but she sighed.
"Queen mother..."
Zhu Zhaolin now wants to die.
The problem is, he is worried that his father Zhu Gaolie will deal with it impartially!
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps in the inner hall, and Zhu Gaolie stepped out, followed by Peng An, holding the imperial edict in his hand with an expressionless face.
"See Your Majesty."
Everyone hurriedly greeted him.
Even though Eunuch Huang's hand was crushed, he endured the pain and did not dare to make a sound.
"Declare the decree."
Zhu Gaolie waved his hand, and Peng An stepped forward, unfolded the imperial edict, looked around at the people around him, and made public Zhu Gaolie's decision just now.
"What, expelled from the palace, placed under house arrest? Also deprived of Lin'er's throne? How can this be done!"
After hearing the imperial edict, Queen Wang's expression immediately changed. She hurriedly stepped forward and said urgently, "Your Majesty, the matter has not been clarified yet. Besides, Lin'er is still just a child..."
