The surroundings were in an uproar, and the eyes looking at Song Shuwan also showed unkindness.
"Song Shuwan, you pretend to be the crown prince's concubine!"
"Sir, this Song Shuwan clearly wants to use the imperial doctor's hands to harm people, and she must not be bypassed."
"Your Majesty, you cannot protect her just because she is yours. The woman just said that she wants to harm you."
Amidst the noise, Song Shuwan faced everyone's accusations and stared at Tang Wan'er without saying a word.
Several imperial doctors exchanged glances again and stepped forward to diagnose Tang Wan'er's pulse. The imperial doctor who had spoken before immediately raised his head: "Prince Pei, as a doctor, how can you harm people with your medical skills? Why don't you come up with the antidote quickly?"
Another person followed and said: "Yes, get the antidote quickly. If you don't give the antidote, she will die."
Song Shuwan ignored it and still stared at Tang Wan'er. She was thinking, would Tang Wan'er's vomiting of blood really kill her? Or did Tang Wan'er do something to deliberately mislead several imperial doctors?
Time passed, and several anxious doctors could only look at Duan Cheng who was looking up.
"Master Duan, this woman really can't hold on any longer."
"Master Duan, please speak quickly and ask Princess Pei to bring out the antidote."
Duan Cheng, who was entrusted with the important task by them, remained silent. Instead, he looked at Pei Huan: "Does the Crown Prince have anything to say about this matter?"
Pei Huan knocked on the armrest of the wheelchair: "My people will not harm me."
Duan Cheng's eyes flashed with coldness: "Your Majesty, you have mistaken the point. The key now is not whether Princess Pei harmed you, but that Princess Pei used your name to disregard human life. If Prince Pei had been protecting her, I would
Officials should think about whether Princess Pei married into the Marquis Mansion really for the purpose of setting up a defense plan."
There was silence all around, and Song Shuwan snorted: "It turns out that Dali Temple does not rely on evidence when handling cases, but only relies on one person's words. Why? Just because she is a weak person, should I be convicted without evidence?"
She dragged her out of Dali Temple, and Duan Cheng's face instantly darkened: "Prince Pei, please don't think that you are personally appointed by the emperor. I don't dare to do anything to you! To hack Dali Temple is to hack the emperor. This crime,
Can you afford it?"
Song Shuwan looked at him and sneered: "I can really bear the responsibility for this crime, but Sir Duan, do you dare to say what you just said in front of the emperor?"
At this time, both the imperial doctors in the lobby and the common people outside the lobby all chose to remain silent.
The two sides were confronting each other, and even they did not dare to say anything without evidence.
As time passed, Pei Huan drew everyone's attention to him by tapping on the handrail: "Tang Wan'er is suing the imperial wife, can it be regarded as a people's lawsuit against an official?"
Duan Cheng's pupils narrowed: "Prince Pei, what does this mean?"
Pei Huan raised his head slightly: "Not everyone can beat the drum of redress. According to the rules, this Tang Wan'er should have been hit by fifty boards before Song Shuwan arrived. Why is it now... intact?"
"
Duan Cheng's figure swayed: "Your Majesty, Tang Wan'er is unconscious now. If she hits fifty boards again, I'm afraid she will..."
Pei Huan interrupted him: "Rules are rules. If the drums of grievances are drummed up, and those who bring people's complaints against officials will be punished without mercy, will the drums of grievances still have a deterrent effect in the future?"
Duan Cheng tightened his fingers and looked very ugly: "Tang Wan'er is almost dead, is Prince Pei really going to put his own reputation at risk for the daughter of a guilty minister?"
"The daughter of a sinner?"
Pei Huan repeated the four words in his words, and a coldness flashed in his eyes: "My eldest concubine, she is the upright cousin of the Duke's palace. Where did the saying that she is the daughter of a guilty minister come from? Or should I say, Dali Temple and
Do the government officials think that the Duke of Guo's Palace will ignore the laws of the Zhou Dynasty and protect the daughter of a criminal minister? If so, then I will take Duke Xin to the imperial study and ask him where the Duke of Guo's Palace came from.
Why would you marry the daughter of a guilty minister under the protection of the State Council into the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion!"
The sensation caused by Tang Wan'er's redress of injustice was wiped out in a few words by Pei Huan.
Silence fell once again inside and outside the lobby, but the silence on the surface did not mean the turmoil secretly.
Song Shuwan stared at the man in the wheelchair. The fingers hanging by her legs tightened little by little. Her fingertips dug into the tender flesh of her palms, causing bursts of tingling pain. Pei Huan seemed to be defending her, but every word he spoke
But they all pushed her to the forefront.
Those words will only make the people in the capital hate her more and more, and make her reputation worse and worse.
If the identity of the "daughter of the guilty minister" hadn't been revealed today, Song Shuwan would have thought that what happened today was arranged by Pei Huan.
No, if you think about it carefully, there is no guarantee that Pei Huan's involvement in today's matter is impossible, because no matter how big the matter is, as long as it comes in front of the emperor, the emperor will choose to suppress it. After all, her identity is not worth mentioning compared with Pei Huan's body.
.
The question is, would Pei Huan really get involved in this kind of thing?
Time passed little by little, and suddenly, a sharp voice came into the lobby: "The Emperor orally said -"
A group of eunuchs entered the hall, and everyone knelt down. The leading eunuch glanced at Song Shuwan: "The emperor announced that the crown prince Pei and the crown prince came to the palace to pay homage. In addition, today's case was transferred to the Ministry of Punishment and will be handled by the Ministry of Punishment. Once the matter is found out, it will be dealt with in the palace.
Set up an explanation next to the injustice drum..."
After saying this, the people did not dare to stay and left one after another.
After Duan Cheng saluted, he sent Tang Wan'er to the Ministry of Punishment.
At that time, Song Shuwan and Pei Huan got on the carriage heading to the palace.
In the silence, Song Shuwan said: "Is there any arrangement for today's matter by the prince?"
Pei Huan tilted his head slightly, his pupils diverging outward, looking very lively in front of Song Shuwan.
"Why do you think that today's events are planned by me?"
Song Shuwan pursed her lips, looked into the man's deep pupils, and her heart sank uncontrollably: "So, today's matter is indeed arranged by the prince, right?"
Pei Huan sighed: "You are more hostile to me."
Listening to these familiar words, Song Shuwan closed her eyes and opened them again. She was already calm now, and the topic also changed: "Tang Wan'er is alone, and she is a bandit in Qingyun Mountain. She will not and dare not take her own life.
She came to bet, so there is a person hidden behind her, who is that person? Is it the Crown Prince? Prince Ning? Or... Prince Yong?"
When the last two words came out, Song Shuwan tightened her grip on her clothes. She had no clue, but she already had the answer in her heart. This matter should be a confrontation between King Yong and Pei Huan, and she was just involved in it, but she wanted to
I don’t understand why both King Yong and Pei Huan chose to let Tang Wan’er jump out?
Without evidence, even if it ruins her reputation, what's the use?
In the silence, Pei Huan uttered something that made Song Shuwan's heart run cold.
