This adopted daughter was forced by circumstances and arranged by the clan. Huangfu Haofeng treated her less favorably than the elders of the clan, doting on her and not even liking her, but he never criticized her harshly and even treated her favorably.
After all, there are not many descendants in the clan. Before Ling Xiyue was recognized, she was the only one with royal blood.
It's one thing for Huangfu Haofeng to insist on his own path, but at the same time he still doesn't want the Huangfu family to be cut off from inheritance, so he tolerates Huangfu Qianyu as much as he can tolerate, and treats those who can be kind to him, and he never demands too much.
But he can tolerate anything except her endangering Ling Xiyue's safety. This is his principle and bottom line!
But Huangfu Haofeng is not a casual person. He makes a conclusion based on just a jade plaque. It's just that at the cusp of this storm, Huangfu's shallow words and unreasonable sophistry are enough, but he is stupid enough to drag Ling Xiyue into the water. This
What's it if you don't hit the muzzle of the gun yourself?
Huangfu Qianyu covered her forehead, screaming in pain, and blood instantly stained half of her cheeks.
"Qianyu..." The great venerable saw this and felt heartbroken.
But at this time, no one dared to step forward when looking at the furious Huangfu Haofeng. Even the Great Master didn't know how to plead for mercy. His granddaughter was completely untenable. The clear evidence is here, and it's not just relying on words.
, it can be dealt with in a few words.
What's more, Huangfu Qianyu couldn't explain why, he just lost a sentence and didn't even know where it was lost. It was far-fetched for anyone to hear it.
Ling Xiyue sat next to him and didn't say a word at this time.
But it is true that if Huangfu Qianyu wants to make such a quibble, there is really nothing he can do to her.
At this time, a guard in green clothes hurriedly came outside the palace and said something quickly in Wei Lin's ear. Wei Lin's expression changed and he quickly stepped forward to report, "Your Majesty, the high priest, the escaped assassin has been found."
The high priest looked solemnly and said, "Bring it up!"
If he could be caught alive, things would be much easier to handle.
Wei Lin waved his hand, and two green-clothed guards quickly carried a corpse into the hall and placed it with the three corpses.
"Although the assassin escaped, his injuries were too serious and he was still a corpse when he was found." Wei Lin reported.
Ling Xiyue nodded. She naturally knew the severity of her attack. She would never be able to go far with that kind of injury. She was found now, so she was able to escape.
Elders from all races looked at each other with different eyes.
"Where did you find it?" Huangfu Haofeng swept away his sleeves and put one hand behind his back, saying coldly.
Wei Lin held up his hands and said, "Go back to the king..." He glanced at Huangfu who was covering his forehead on the ground and said, "Inside Lanyuan Peak."
"Impossible, this is impossible!" Huangfu Qianyu screamed and stood up, staring at Wei Lin with a pair of blood-stained eyes like ghosts, "I don't know any assassins at all, I don't know them at all, how is it possible!"
Why, why do you want to harm her like this? Who wants to harm her?
Ling Xiyue's red lips curled up slightly, it was interesting, it was getting more and more interesting.
The high priest was furious, and the star scepter fell and the whole palace trembled, "The evidence is solid, you still dare to quibble!"
There was a bit of sadness in his angry voice. He couldn't believe that the child he had carefully taught as his heir for more than ten years would do such a treasonous thing as rebelling against the clan.
"It's not me, it's really not me." Huangfu Qianyu was really anxious now. He stumbled to his feet and rushed to the great venerable's side, grabbing his arm with his blood-stained hands, "Grandpa, believe me!
"
Why is Huangfu Dingtian not in a hurry?
He was more anxious than Huangfu Qianyu, but as a respected law enforcer in his clan, he could not bend the law for personal gain. That would be heartbreaking, "Qianyu, only you can save yourself. What else do you know? Give me a try."
Five ten, say them all!”
One of them still has room for maneuver, but with these two pieces of evidence placed here, it’s impossible to argue.
Huangfu Qianyu's eyes flickered again, but she couldn't say it. If she did, it wouldn't end well, and no one would believe her!
The second venerable Huangfu Yunyi also quickly spoke up and advised, "Qianyu, if someone is intentionally harming you, don't worry, think about it carefully, talk to it carefully, don't worry, as long as you haven't done it, I and the clan elders will help you.
The one who calls the shots!”
Huangfu Qianyu's face was as green as death. After hearing these words, his expression became even more desperate. Tears welled up and he fell to his knees, muttering and repeating, "I don't know, Qianyu really doesn't have anything."
Know……"
As he spoke, his body softened and he fell to the ground.
"Come here." Before Huangfu Haofeng could speak, the high priest's silver robe sleeves were waved violently, with thunderous roars, and his scepter slammed. He pointed at Huangfu with a cold face and said lightly, "Tie me up and take him to the sea prison."
Water prison..."
"No!"
Huangfu Dingtian suddenly stretched out his hand to stop.
The high priest looked sharply and said, "Huangfu Dingtian, do you want to be punished with the same crime?"
Huangfu Qianyu relied on his noble status and the favor of the clan elders to sneak out of the king's island, treat the clan members harshly, and did not abide by the clan rules outside... The high priest could turn a blind eye to these small fights.
, but colluding with the ghost clan to assassinate the emperor of the clan is a serious crime of treason.
Although he still couldn't bear it, he had to deal with it according to the law.
No matter who it is, he will punish them severely!
Huangfu Dingtian's face tightened, "High Priest, Your Majesty, I am not trying to excuse Qianyu, but this matter is full of doubts. Whether it is really Qianyu's doing needs to be verified. How can you be so arbitrary?"
"The evidence is conclusive, who have I wronged?" Hearing this, the high priest's face froze again, and his voice was also filled with pain. He pointed to the ground, "Look, open your eyes and take a good look, these are all
What is it!"
Such an execution was also Huangfu Haofeng's intention. Since the high priest opened his mouth, he didn't say much.
Even if I feel a little sorry for Huangfu Qianyu, compared with my daughter's safety, those little regrets are nothing to mention. What's more, the family has family rules and the clan has clan laws. Even if a woman is not involved, as the person who holds the throne of power, for the betrayal,
Members of the clan will also be severely punished.xdw8
The Qinglong Priest next to him was even more stern. He held the Star Scepter, walked up to the High Priest, and said word by word, "Everyday small fights and arbitrary actions can be punished lightly, but this crime of treason must not be punished."
Indulgent."
This is also a stubborn idea. No one can ignore the laws and clan rules.
The high priest nodded a little, expressed his agreement, and even sternly ordered, "Whoever dares to plead again will be punished!"
As soon as these words came out, several clan elders who originally wanted to plead for Huangfu Qianyu and wanted to spare her death looked at each other, sighed and shook their heads.
The great venerable's face was bruised, and he looked at his granddaughter who fell to the ground. He was anxious and annoyed, and his hands were trembling slightly.
"It's better to take it slow first." No one expected that the person who stood up to the wind and asked for mercy would be Ling Xiyue.
