"Reporting to the Seventh Princess, the Prince of Huainan has bowed his head and confessed his crime, and committed suicide by taking poison."
The weather is getting warmer, and in the spring afternoon, the air is filled with the fresh fragrance of flowers and plants.
Xie Mingxi was holding A Luo in her arms and was teasing A Luo with her head.
Hearing Xianghui's voice, Xie Mingxi raised her head, with a look of indifference on her beautiful face, without any surprise: "How did the Queen Mother react? How did the Third Prince react?"
Xiang Hui replied in a low voice: "The Queen was very angry when she heard that she ordered everyone in the Huainan Palace to be imprisoned in the clan mansion. The King of Hejian will interrogate and find out the mastermind behind the scenes."
The Huainan Palace is completely finished!
Sheng Xuan is dead, King Huainan is dead, and now, even the dull and impulsive Prince Huainan is dead. Among the remaining children and grandchildren, they are either mediocre or weak, and there is no one with a strong temperament among the female relatives.
The prince of Huainan Prince has confessed his crime, and what awaits everyone in the Huainan Prince's Mansion will be catastrophe.
Even if the third prince didn't kill them all, the real mastermind behind it, the fourth prince, would still kill everyone.
This is the consequence of choosing the wrong political stance!
A hint of coldness flashed in Xie Mingxi's eyes, and she said calmly: "I understand. Please step back first!"
Xianghui responded and quietly stepped back.
Xie Mingxi quickly put the matter behind her and concentrated on coaxing her daughter: "Aluo, would you like to smile at your mother?"
The little A Luo grinned when she heard her mother's gentle voice.
Xie Mingxi also chuckled and bent her head to kiss A Luo gently on the face.
Despite the storm, there was still peace in Fulin Palace.
…
On that day, everyone in the Huainan Prince's Mansion was imprisoned in the Zongren Mansion.
How the King of Hejian interrogated him was unknown to everyone.
One day later, the King of Hejian entered the Jiaofang Palace holding a bloody testimony: "The Empress, the Queen, and the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince of Huainan has all confessed. The Crown Prince of Huainan was instructed by His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince.
Secretly bought Eunuch Luo with a hundred thousand taels of silver notes, and then poisoned the horse feed..."
Before he finished speaking, the fourth prince's expression suddenly changed and he coldly interrupted King Hejian: "A mere female family member was imprisoned in the clan's mansion. After being tortured for a while, she couldn't stand it. She confessed as she was told. He said
It’s really ridiculous that King Jian used this trick to frame me, the prince.”
"My mother has a sharp eye. Brother Three Emperors is my biological brother. How can I tolerate you talking nonsense and slandering me here?"
Then, with a stern expression, he held his hands in his hands and said, "Please, Queen Mother and Brother Three Emperors, strictly investigate the clan's residence and clear my name!"
Innocent ass!
The third prince sneered in his heart, but his face showed a brotherly demeanor: "Fourth prince, don't worry. This confession is really not credible."
Then he looked at King Hejian: "King Hejian, please go back to the clan's mansion and interrogate him carefully. You must interrogate him clearly and you must not accuse anyone unjustly."
King Hejian pretended to be aggrieved and agreed.
Queen Yu's cool eyes glanced at the pretentious third prince and the fourth prince who refused to recognize him.
Was all this done by the fourth prince, or was the third prince shouting to catch the thief?
Unfortunately, there is no chance to investigate thoroughly.
Late that night, the jailer guarding the prison of the Zongren Mansion quietly opened the lock and knocked everyone out with sweat medicine. Then he stabbed them one by one and killed them all. The female family members were no exception, and they all died in the prison.
The person who did it also committed suicide in prison.
The cell full of dead bodies and the ground full of blood is like Shura Hell. Those who have witnessed it with their own eyes will have nightmares for many nights.
The only one among the female family members who survived was Mu Ziqi.
Mu Ziqi originally had to observe her husband's filial piety for three years. Three months ago, her father and brother came to visit her and took her back to the Mu family. Fortunately, she returned to her parents' home early. Otherwise, she would not have been able to escape this disaster.
The King of Hejian went into the palace with a pale face to plead guilty.
The third prince was furious and jumped in anger: "You bastard! You are so negligent! You caused everyone in the Huainan Palace to die in the prison of the Zongren Palace! What use do you have?"
The fourth prince also said angrily with a dark handsome face: "Who is so cruel that he kills people and silences them! It makes me unable to defend myself! You must have been the murderer secretly. In this way, you can put all the blame on me."
On your body!"
King Hejian almost spit out blood!
He is truly incomprehensible!
It is true that he has been in charge of the Zongren Mansion. But for more than a year, people have been secretly stumbling upon him, and he has not had time to replace them all with his own people. King Huainan has been in charge of the Zongren Mansion for more than ten years, and he always has confidants.
Dead soldiers. There are also four princes. How can there be no internal support in the clan's mansion?
No, trouble occurred at the critical moment.
All of them died in the prison of Zong Ren Mansion. His testimony from the previous interrogation turned into a joke.
…
Sheng Hong returned to Fulin Palace with a sullen look on his face and a gloomy mood.
Xie Mingxi glanced at him: "What's wrong? Did everyone in the Huainan Palace die in the prison of the Zongren Palace?"
Sheng Hong: "..."
Xie Mingxi stayed in Fulin Palace every day and never searched for news. However, he was always sharp and sharp, and he could guess accurately at the first word.
No need to ask any more questions, Sheng Hong's expression gave Xie Mingxi the answer.
Xie Mingxi twitched the corner of her mouth, and a sarcastic coldness flashed in her eyes: "The fourth prince is still so ruthless and neat in his actions."
When it's time to kill, never show mercy.
Even if the Huainan Palace has secretly supported him for several years, there is no ambiguity when it comes to silencing him!
Sheng Hong was silent for a moment and then said: "Now everyone knows that it was the fourth prince who did it, but there is no real evidence and no one can do anything to him."
In that confession, not even Queen Yu mentioned a single word.
The fourth prince is even more magnanimous when he is wronged. His dark heart and shameless face are breathtaking.
Xie Mingxi's eyes flashed and she came to a conclusion on the matter: "The whole family of the Huainan Prince's Palace was wiped out, which can be regarded as an explanation for the matter. The third prince will no longer pursue him."
"Because he has more important things to do."
Yes, the Third Prince has more important things to do.
Ascended to the throne!
There is a world of difference between a prince and an emperor.
Only when you become the emperor can you sit on the dragon throne and aspire for imperial power. There is no need to deal with a fourth prince like this.
Xie Mingxi was right as he expected.
The third prince quickly settled the case. It was announced to the outside world that the mastermind was the prince of Huainan, who secretly carried out the murder out of resentment. All the members of the Huainan prince's family died, which can be regarded as the evil man getting his evil reward.
After that, the third prince personally went to Princess Changping's Mansion to apologize to Princess Changping: "...The Prince of Huainan originally wanted to murder me, but he never thought that his consort had suffered on my behalf. Now that his consort is seriously injured, I also blame myself in my heart.
I feel guilty. Today I came here to apologize to the imperial sister."
Princess Changping scolded the third prince, but the third prince took it all without saying a word.
In the end, the sister and brother hugged each other and cried, and reconciled.
