Chapter 349 Willing to Testify for the Deer Marquis!
It was particularly ironic to say that he was a commoner, and that he wanted to kill or behead each one. In Li Shimin's ears, it seemed particularly ironic. But thinking of what he had done, Li Shimin gritted his teeth and endured it.
This is a poor woman.
I killed his husband and son, so she should hate me.
Li Shimin took a deep breath and said: "I will ask the reason for the matter now. The emperor's sister-in-law can supervise from the side. If it is You'er's fault, I will definitely give the emperor's sister-in-law an explanation."
"Ha!" Zheng Guanyin smiled and said: "Your Majesty, there is no need to ask. The common people have already said that it is all our fault. King Yan is your Majesty's son. Whether it is appearance or style, he has your Majesty's style.
I just heard my daughter say that what King Yan did was exactly the same as His Majesty, how could Your Majesty punish him? We should be happy, and we, mother and daughter, should deserve to die."
Li Shimin gritted his teeth and said, "Sister-in-law Huang, there is no need to speak like this. I have told you that I will give you an explanation."
"Ha..." Zheng Guanyin ignored him and started to walk back with the two children.
"Isn't the imperial sister-in-law concerned about Li Mu's safety?"
When Zheng Guanyin heard this, she stood still. She looked back and looked at the direction where Li Mu was carried away. It was not the Taiji Palace, but the East Palace. Calculating the distance, Changle Gate was closer to the East Palace, separated only by a wall.
East Palace...
It is truly a place worth remembering.
Not sure whether he was worried about Li Mu's safety or wanted his children to see his former home. Zheng Guanyin hesitated and said, "Marquis Zhulu saved my daughter, so I should say thank you."
Li Shimin quickly ordered Eunuch Gao, "Go and arrange the evacuation!"
"The ordinary people can't even walk around, so Your Majesty doesn't have to show it to anyone. There are only a few steps, so just walk."
After saying this coldly, Zheng Guanyin bent down and picked up his youngest daughter, holding his eldest daughter in his hand, and walked straight towards the East Palace.
Stepping out of Changle Gate, her body trembled a little. This was the first time she had walked through this gate in almost five years.
Li Shimin glared at Li You fiercely and said, "Come here, take King Yan and Yin Hongzhi to the East Palace!"
"Your Majesty!"/"Father!"
The two shouted, but Li Shimin glared at them coldly and added: "If they are making noise, shut their mouths!"
After saying that, he told Eunuch Gao impartially: "Go to the harem, tell the queen what happened, and ask her to bring Concubine De here! I want Concubine De to see her good brother and the good son she has taught!"
Eunuch Gao heard the coldness in Li Shimin's tone, and his heart trembled. He hurriedly responded and quickened his pace towards the Li Zheng Hall.
Li Zheng Palace.
With nothing to do, Empress Changsun called a few concubines and gathered for a mahjong table. Concubine Yinde happened to be among them.
Seeing Eunuch Gao running towards him in a panic, Queen Changsun put down the 30,000 yuan in her hand, frowned and asked, "What's going on? You're in a panic."
"Report to the queen, something big happened. King Yan bullied people in the Changle clan, and was caught by Zhuluhou. King Yan was beaten. Yin Changshi stood up for King Yan, and took the sword of the imperial guard and stabbed Zhuluhou. The sharp sword
It penetrated Zhuluhou’s arm. Now Zhuluhou has lost too much blood and has fainted. He is being rescued!”
"What!"
Queen Changsun suddenly stood up and said: "What is going on? How did King Yan appear in Changlemen, and how did Li Mu get involved? Yin Hongzhi is a virtuous person, how could he stab..."
Halfway through the words, Concubine Yin De started to cry. She held the hand of Empress Changsun and cried: "Queen, please make the decision for my sister. Li Mu has bullied others too much, even if my son had an affair with a member of the Changle family.
In a conflict, he shouldn't just reach out and hit him! This world belongs to His Majesty, and my son is His Majesty's heir. No matter how bad things happen, he is still the son of a dragon, how can he be beaten... Queen, my sister is not alive."
He kept crying and almost convulsed.
Empress Changsun is a woman who is calm when things happen, but when she heard Concubine Yin De's cry, she felt a little upset. She had the same idea as Li Shimin. Li Mu was not an unreasonable person, and everything happened for a reason. Ignore it.
Concubine Yin De cried out and asked Eunuch Gao: "What did your Majesty say?"
"Your Majesty ordered people to tie up King Yan and Yin Changshi, and he also said that he would give an explanation to Princess Yin and ask the old slave to invite the queen and Concubine De..." Eunuch Gao looked at Concubine Yin De who was about to faint and said: "Your Majesty, please give me an explanation."
He said, let Concubine De take a good look at her good brother and the good son she taught."
Hearing this, Concubine Yin De, who was crying, turned pale in an instant. She was not a stupid woman. When she heard that Li Mu was involved in the matter, she knew she couldn't be kind. Crying first was to gain the upper hand, and try her best to
Fight for some points for your brother and son. But hearing Eunuch Gao say this clearly shows that His Majesty has determined this matter and the fault lies with his son. What should we do?
Empress Changsun also understood what Li Shimin meant. Although Concubine Yin De was pitiful, there had to be an explanation for this matter. Li Mu was stabbed with a sword and almost lost his life, so she had to give him an explanation.
"Let's go and see what's going on. We're all one family. There's nothing we can't resolve. On Li Mu's side, I'll help you with the matter."
When Concubine Yin De heard this, she felt even more desperate. Li Shimin's attitude had already tilted, and Empress Changsun's attitude was like this again. It seemed that her son and younger brother would not be able to escape today.
The group of people arrived at the East Palace. The door of the palace was wide open, and the noise inside could be heard from a distance.
There were more than a dozen guards in the palace, talking about something. Empress Changsun and Concubine Yin De walked into the palace, and everyone's eyes were focused on them. Li You, who was gagged and tied into a ball, saw his mother and concubine coming, and used his food to eat.
Li You struggled hard, and the guards did not dare to hold him down, so he broke away. Li You ran to Concubine Yin De, tears streaming down her face. When Concubine Yin De saw her, her tears fell, and she pulled her son.
Kneeling on the ground, he cried: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you're being beaten, why are you still tying him up...Does Your Majesty want our mother and son to die? Then please give me a poison bar! Anyway, my concubine and my brother are Dai."
The sinner should have died eleven years ago. I have survived these many years and been able to serve His Majesty for these many years. I am already satisfied."
"Shut up!"
Li Shimin shouted loudly, and Concubine Yin De was so frightened that she did not dare to speak.
"Your good brother, the good son you trained! Okay! Okay!" Li Shimin pointed at Li You, as if he was too angry to speak. He pointed at a dozen guards standing next to him and said: "Come on.
, you say it again, let my concubine take a good look at what this traitor has done!"
The guards started talking at once.
"His Royal Highness King Yan came out of the East Palace and came to Changle Gate for some reason. Because Eunuch Gao once sent a message that there is no need to guard too tightly. If anyone comes to visit, he can be let in to see each other. We thought that King Yan was visiting Princess Yin.
There was no stopping it.”
Another person took over the words, pointed at Li Wanyan, and said: "His Royal Highness Yan Wang entered the door wall and was hit by the little girl. His Royal Highness Yan Wang was so angry that he raised his foot... and kicked her."
Concubine Yin De glanced at Li Wanyan, who was covered in bruises, and her face turned a little pale.
"Then the little girl's sister stood up and stopped her. Who would have expected that His Highness Prince Yan... began to tease her verbally. He even pressed her against the wall and wanted to kiss her."
Concubine Yin De was about to faint. The guards did not dare to say how she could not know whose daughter the sisters in Changle Gate were. If what the guards said was true, their son had done this.
It's against human ethics!
Concubine Yin De looked at her son in shock and murmured: "Impossible, this is impossible, my Youer is not such a person, he is not..."
Another guard continued: "At this time, Marquis Zhulu came. He told us that he was ordered by His Majesty to visit Princess Yin. Before he could finish speaking, he heard the sound and rushed over."
Concubine Yin De blurted out and asked: "He beat my son like this?"
The guard shook his head and said: "The Marquis just stopped King Yan and asked him who he was. The King of Yan revealed his identity and threatened the Marquis, saying that if he let go, he could leave a whole body for him, otherwise he would be chopped into pieces.
dog."
Concubine Yin De murmured: "This is not true..."
The guard continued: "The Marquis let go of his hand when he heard this. Unexpectedly, King Yan rushed over to fight again. In order to protect himself, the Marquis raised his leg and kicked..."
The guards are not stupid either. They can't escape the suspicion of neglecting their duties after what happened today. If they can't see the direction of the wind clearly at this time and say what needs to be said, will there be any good fruits to be gained?
Concubine Yin De looked at her son's injuries, gritted her teeth, and said bravely: "Your Majesty, you can't listen to their words. Look at You'er's injuries. How could they be caused by a kick? Li Mu must have beaten him again. Please, Your Majesty."
Let Youer say a few words, Your Majesty, I beg you."
"It seems you still don't give up." Li Shimin sighed in disappointment and waved his hand. Eunuch Gao walked over and pulled out the cloth gagged on Li You's mouth.
Li You took a deep breath and shouted: "Mother, he lied. The thief not only kicked me, he also hit me twice in the mouth!"
Li Shimin looked at the guards. The guard who had his sword robbed hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the truth is like this. Zhuluhou walked over and asked King Yan if he knew he was wrong. King Yan said that Zhuluhou would die today and scolded him for being a member of the royal family.
The lackey, maybe Zhulu Hou was too angry, so he hit me twice more. Then Yin Changshi rushed over, took my sword while we were unprepared, and stabbed Zhulu Hou in the back viciously."
"Your Majesty, because I was eager to snatch the sword back, I saw it most clearly. Yin Changshi stabbed Zhuluhou in the back of the heart. He just wanted to kill Zhuluhou. And Zhuluhou had already noticed it when he shouted.
, he could dodge. But if he dodged, the sword would hit King Yan's chest and abdomen. In order to save King Yan's life, Zhulu Hou paused at the last moment, barely avoided his heart, and used his arm to meet the blade of the sword.
."
When Li Shimin heard this, he was moved and said: "Is this true?"
The guard knelt on the ground, banged his head on the ground, and said: "Your Majesty, I see it really. If you tell a lie, I am willing to be quartered by five horses and die. Not only I saw it, but all the brothers saw it. Your Majesty is also in the army."
People should be able to see it. Originally, Zhuluhou's back was facing Yin Changshi, so why did the sword penetrate from the front? Because Zhuluhou had already turned around, and he could dodge but didn't. That's why this happened.
Sword wound!"
The imperial guards knelt down one after another and shouted: "We are willing to testify for Zhuluhou, please give your Majesty a clear warning!"
