The matter involves the Huainan Palace and the Xie family. The person who wrote the petition personally was the seventh prince, and the Xie family also had to show up.
Since the Seventh Prince was willing to support him, Xie Jun straightened up and came to the court together today and stood beside Eunuch Wei.
Eunuch Wei is not old, but his mind is very active.
Emperor Jianwen rewarded him to the Seventh Prince. No matter what the emperor's intention was, he was the Seventh Prince's man. Furthermore, the Seventh Prince reused him in everything and trusted him very much. People's hearts are made of flesh, so his heart
Quietly leaning towards the Seventh Prince.
He must handle today's affairs properly.
The Prince of Huainan had a gloomy face. He first glared at Xie Jun until Xie Jun felt weak and weak, and then glared at Eunuch Wei.
Eunuch Wei was much more courageous than Xie Jun. He bowed his hands in a respectful manner and said, "Today I follow the orders of His Highness the Seventh Prince to go to court with the Crown Prince, which is really not what I want. If there is any offense, please forgive me.
!”
Now that we have come to this point, how can we show off to the Prince of Huainan?
How ridiculous!
When the Prince of Huainan heard Eunuch Wei's seemingly respectful but actually mocking words, he felt angry and welling up in his heart.
According to his past temper, he should have beaten this sinister and treacherous Eunuch Wei long ago.
But when I think of Princess Yongning hanging on a thread in Cixin Nunnery, and of King Huainan who is too ill to frown and sigh, I have to swallow my breath.
I came to the court today just to bow my head and embarrass myself.
Only when Xie Mingxi became so sulky would the Seventh Prince give up.
Only when the Huainan Palace lowers its head will Queen Yu be satisfied.
Be patient! You must be patient!
Prince Huainan took a deep breath and repeatedly encouraged himself to be patient.
No matter how much Eunuch Wei mocked and sarcasticly, the impulsive, irritable, violent and hands-on prince of Huainan still gritted his teeth and endured it.
Xie Jun saw this in his eyes, and felt extremely happy and relieved.
Last night, Xie Mingxi made a special trip back to Xie's Mansion and told him: "When father goes to court tomorrow, just straighten your back and angrily scold the Prince of Huainan."
Xie Jun was a little uneasy and asked subconsciously: "The Prince of Huainan has never been a person who swallows his anger, so why is he willing to go to the court to be tried? I opened my mouth to ask, he won't do it in front of the court!"
If the Prince of Huainan attacks him in public, then it will not be the Huainan Palace that will be embarrassed, but the Xie family.
Xie Mingxi raised her eyebrows and smiled meaningfully: "Don't worry, he will never dare to do anything in vain in the court! Father only needs to vent his anger!"
It wasn't until this moment that Xie Junti finally felt relieved.
I don’t know how Xie Mingxi made the Huainan Palace bow its head. In short, such a beautiful thing as pursuing victory must not be let go!
…
The capital government offices are open to hear cases almost every day, but it is unprecedented for them to be heard with such momentum as today.
One is the chamberlain next to the current prince, the other is the crown prince of the Huainan Prince's Palace, and there is a fourth-rank Honglu Temple Minister standing aside.
Zhao Fuyin couldn't afford to offend anyone, so he invited everyone to sit down with just one mouthful.
Eunuch Wei's thin and soft voice sounded unhurriedly: "Master Zhao, today I am here on the orders of His Highness the Seventh Prince. As the defendant, there is no reason for the Prince of Huainan to sit down. According to our opinion, he will stand.
Let’s open a trial!”
"What do you think, Mr. Xie?"
Xie Jun immediately said: "What Mr. Wei said makes sense, I can just stand there."
The complainants all stood, but the defendants had no right to sit down.
Prince Huainan snorted coldly and said nothing.
After a brief trial, Zhao Fuyin calmed down and put on the majestic face he usually wears when opening the hall: "Open the hall!"
The government officials standing on both sides raised their voices angrily: "Mighty~~~"
Soon, more than a dozen idle men were brought to the court. After staying in the prison for several days, the idle men suffered a lot. Their heads and faces were still in good condition, but there were many injuries on their bodies.
It is not hard for idle men to be bribed with money. They have been beaten for the past few days and have already confessed. At this time, they all knelt in the court and rushed to confess:
"The rumors about Third Miss Xie were ordered by the steward of the Huainan Palace. As long as we spread the rumors within two days and ruin the reputation of Third Miss, the Crown Prince will reward you greatly."
"The villain took five taels of silver."
"The villain took ten taels."
"Bah! Why can I only take five taels, but you can get ten taels!"
"I went to the Lotus Pond Academy to spread the news. Of course I should get more..."
Zhao Fuyin slapped the gavel with all his strength, with a cold expression on his face: "It's noisy in the court! Each person hits ten boards!"
At that moment, the tall and strong government officials held long sticks and beat the dozen idle men until they howled like ghosts.
The people who were watching the trial outside the government office also started making noises, saying things like, "It's really hateful for the Huainan Prince's Palace to bully others with such power", "Miss Xie San is so famous, how can she be slandered", "Master Zhao must judge the case impartially and not spare the prince of Huainan" and so on.
, rang out one after another, resounding throughout the courtroom.
Xie Jun stepped forward at the right time, with an angry look on his face: "...As a father, I am very indignant that my daughter has been slandered in this way. I beg Zhaofu Yin to deal with it impartially and restore my daughter's innocent reputation."
Then, he pointed at the Prince of Huainan and cursed angrily.
Xie Jun lives up to his reputation as a prodigy, and he quotes scriptures when he curses, which is particularly sharp!
The prince of Huainan had veins popping up on his forehead and his face looked extremely ugly.
The anger in my heart grew stronger and stronger. I endured it again and again, and finally resisted the urge to fall out in court.
Be patient! You must be patient!
…
Lotus Pond Academy, noon.
Xie Mingxi accompanied Gu Shanchang to have lunch.
Gu Shanchang glanced at Xie Mingxi, who looked calm: "Are you really not worried that the Prince of Huainan will make a fuss in court in anger?"
Xie Mingxi smiled leisurely: "For the sake of Princess Yongning's life, he dare not."
Although the prince of Huainan has many shortcomings, he truly loves his sister, who is from the same mother. It can be seen that there are not many brothers in the world as cold and selfish as Xie Yuanting.
Gu Shanchang subconsciously asked: "What if Prince Huainan takes action again?"
Xie Mingxi felt a little regretful: "My father can only suffer the pain of flesh and blood again."
Gu Shanchang: "..."
Gu Shanchang thought about it for a while and couldn't help but laugh and sigh: "This move of yours is indeed powerful!"
Having captured Princess Yongning, Prince Huainan and his son no longer dare to do evil to her!
The case was heard in court today. Prince Huainan bowed his head and pleaded guilty to "wantonly fabricating rumors to damage Miss Xie San's reputation." From now on, no one will mention Xie Mingxi's alienation from her biological mother and brother.
Even if someone wants to slander someone, they must weigh their own weight first.
Xie Mingxi smiled slightly: "I also borrowed the Queen's power. Without the Queen's protection, the Huainan Palace would have many ways to deal with the Xie family."
Surrendering to Queen Yu is indeed a wonderful move!
At least before getting married, King Huainan would never dare to kill her in private!
Come to think of it, the King of Huainan soon lost his mind to ask about the Xie family.
Given this opportunity, King Linjiang and King Hejian will never let it go. (To be continued)
