Chapter 431

Xia Tingzhen's sight finally recovered from the Zen courtyard and then looked at the crowd.

In a hurry, Ji Xiu, who was wearing only his usual clothes, was being surrounded by several officials——

Xia Tingzhen had a sarcastic sneer in her slightly narrowed eyes.

These officials, who think they are very good at judging the situation, think that Ji Xiu is particularly popular recently, and sent another confidant to the Central Library Province, which is deeply valued by his majesty

In the final analysis, it's just a bunch of mindless fools who think they're smart.

During this time, what Jixiu took from him... It's time to return it.

In the meditation room, Emperor Qingming was coldly looking at the king of Xiang who kept defending.

"At this time, there is no outsider, but between you and my brothers. Are you still unwilling to tell me the truth?"

"Brother Huang, it really has nothing to do with my younger brother!" the king of Hunan was so anxious that he was sweating: "someone must want to separate my younger brother and brother Huang!"

Emperor Qingming straightened his lips.

Estrangement?

Who would choose to do so?

"... from my younger brother's point of view, it may not be that the second brother talked through the Empress Dowager and played such a play, deliberately slandering my mother and concubine."

For this speculation without evidence, the king of Hunan didn't dare to be forthright, and his tone was a little weak: "it's clear that he was estranged from what happened in those years, but people can't see half of it. Who knows what he was totaling all day... Maybe he just wanted to get rid of his younger brother because he couldn't see the emperor's brother alone."

Emperor Qingming sneered, wondering whether he believed it or not.

At this time, Han Yan walked in quickly.

"Your Majesty, I found it in a locked box under the bed in Princess sun's room."

Han Yan held a porcelain vase in his hand and said, "I have asked doctor Zheng to examine it and confirm that the poison in this bottle is the same as that in the cup of pear soup."

Looking at the porcelain vase, Princess sun's eyes were shocked, and the blood color on her face completely faded in an instant.

No wonder she was not careful... She was going to go back to deal with the aftermath after delivering pear soup!

But who knows that the damned maid saw through on the spot!

She doesn't have any time to hide the evidence!

Seeing her reaction in his eyes, Emperor Qingming had made a judgment in his heart.

He slowly looked at the Xiang King standing there and asked, "now, do you have anything else to say?"

The Xiang King's face repeated, opened his mouth, but failed to make a sound.

"Emperor, I did it alone... He didn't know it!"

Princess sun suddenly knocked her head heavily on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "it's because I have always hated the Empress Dowager for trivial things in previous years. I can't find a chance to do it in the palace on weekdays... Thinking that it's a rare opportunity to go out of the palace for sacrifice, I did such a wrong thing for a moment!"

Emperor Qingming sneered and said nothing.

The mother did a good job.

Unfortunately, he didn't believe a word of these words!

"Mother imperial concubine, don't cover up for your son..." the king of Hunan finally opened his mouth and said in a dumb voice, "it's your son who has troubled you."

"... stop!" Princess sun shook her head at her son.

No, she's just such a son. Her son can't have an accident!

The king of Xiang had knelt down, and cold sweat dripping from the corner of his forehead: "brother Huang... It was really done by my younger brother..."

He knew his elder brother's temperament very well. If he continued to argue at this time, he would really be looking for his own death.

Emperor Qingming sneered: "this is recognition."

The next moment, the cold smile suddenly put away, suddenly raised his hand, and swept his sleeves to the tea set on several tables at his elbow.

"Bang!"

The enamel colored porcelain teapot fell to the ground and the broken porcelain splashed.

"... I almost believed your nonsense just now!"

In the face of the wrath of the emperor, the king of Hunan crawled on the ground, trembling and said, "my brother, this is also for the consideration of the Emperor..."

"For me?" emperor Qingming squeezed out a strange smile from his teeth, and his eyes were extremely vicious: "for me, so you want to poison the Empress Dowager? I'd like to hear what's good for me!"

In vain, he always thought that even though the fourth brother thought carefully, he was still under his control.

Now, there should be no so-called trust between people in this world... Including these simple minded fools!

"Brother Huang is kind-hearted. He knows that his second brother has a heart of disobedience, but he is still just restraining..." the king of Hunan tries to make his voice sound less shaking. "Brother Huang always believes that as long as the Empress Dowager is still in Beijing, his second brother will not dare to act rashly, but in the long run, it is just a matter of raising a tiger!"

"So, you're going to make a good claim to kill the Empress Dowager?" emperor Qingming said sarcastically: "have you ever thought about the possible consequences of doing so?"

"Younger brother... Younger brother just wants the emperor to make up his mind and take this opportunity to remove the second brother!"

"When will you arrange my affairs?" emperor Qingming was furious: "you will only bring me trouble and disrupt my original plan!"

Get rid of the Yan King... Where is such a simple thing?

If it is so easy, why should he wait until today!

The fool did this not so much to force him to get rid of the king of Yan as to force the king of Yan to rebel as soon as possible

Now Daqing is in such a situation that one hair will affect the whole body. Such an unprepared thing is equivalent to a sudden great change. Once it happens, how should he deal with it?

Keeping the Empress Dowager's life, even if it really comes to that step, it can at least be used as a hostage, which makes the king of Yan afraid——

And such an important chess piece was almost destroyed by this stupid thing tonight!

"Yes... I'm stupid. I don't dare to be smart anymore!" the king of Hunan quickly admitted his mistake.

"No, I've found it now. You're not stupid at all..."

Aware that the emperor's examination came from the top of his head, the king of Hunan crawled there, and his body became stiff.

"For me? For your own discontent and personal resentment against the Yan king, or for your own personal interests? You can get more benefits and real power when he dies." emperor Qingming's voice was slow and cold: "fourth brother, you have learned to kill with a knife now. It really makes me look at each other."

"I dare not......" the Xiang King's voice was low and uneasy.

Emperor Qingming closed his eyes: "I don't care what your purpose is, but since the disaster broke out, the evil consequences will be swallowed by yourself -"

"Brother Huang, I know I'm wrong. I don't dare to make any more claims and hide from my brother!" the king of Hunan repeatedly kowtowed and begged for mercy: "please give me another chance because my brother hasn't really made a big mistake... I will work harder for my brother in the future!"
