Chapter 449 Even the Xuanwu Cauldron is fake
Cui Yudie was stunned, and quickly grabbed Cheng Dongjiang's sleeve, "Why does the emperor have a house raid? This marriage was granted by the emperor, and we are also victims, so why?"
"Just because you planned that scene at the palace banquet on New Year's Eve! That's the palace, not your own backyard. The things you did can't be hidden from anyone but the emperor! I'm afraid that the emperor is also annoyed by Princess Wuya, so he turns a blind eye. I'll let you succeed by closing one eye, but that doesn't mean the emperor won't settle the scores!
Be wise, you should find out the emperor's thoughts and share your worries in advance. Maybe the emperor can still remember the old feelings and forgive us, you still want to get benefits from the emperor! ill! "Cheng Dongjiang didn't want to say so much in front of the long-haired and short-sighted housewife, but things at home were getting bigger and bigger. If things continued like this, he was afraid that the whole family would be buried with them, so he had to say a few more words.
Cui Yudie was stunned for a moment after hearing this. Cheng Jiao beside her said weakly: "Father, we didn't do anything."
“You still want to quibble!” Cheng Dongjiang snapped.
Cheng Jiaojiao wilted immediately.
This side of the inn.
Lan Suiwendong led a group of people into the courtyard and immediately closed the door to block the prying eyes of those outside.
“Brother, what should we do now? Princess, is she really a fake? Your Majesty is trying to trick us to death!” Lan Sui Wenhan kicked over his stool in anger.
Lan Suiwendong said coldly: "Calm down, we have no enmity with the king. Why does he bother to deceive us so much?"
"That's right! The king also pointed out that we wanted a piece of territory for the Wuya tribe, so how could we do such a thing! But Guangenhou said it with certainty, and the princess was very hostile to Baiweilou when she entered the capital. To say that they are not Yes, I don’t believe it at all! I think the princess is most likely the Zhao Yuejiao mentioned by Guang Enhou, but I don’t know if she is the king’s daughter!” Lan Sui Wenhan frowned.
Lan Suiwendong was calm, "What are you afraid of! We have the Xuanwu Ding, and the princess was handed over to us by the king himself. As long as the king recognizes the princess, the princess will be the princess, and Emperor Qi can't do anything to us!"
“That’s true!” Lan Sui Wenhan felt relieved again.
Inside the palace.
The emperor has been waiting for news from Wei Guangxian.
The Xuanwu Cauldron is a big thing. It was very difficult to get it from the Cheng family to the palace. It was not until dusk that the items were delivered.
The emperor was very happy and ordered the Xuanwu Ding to be sent to join the other three tripods.
Prime Minister Sun and other court officials also entered the palace at this time, vying to catch a glimpse of the Xuanwu Ding as soon as possible.
More than a dozen guardsmen stepped forward, and Wei Guangxian shouted, "Lift it up!"
Everyone worked together to lift the Xuanwu Cauldron off the ox cart. When the cauldron fell to the ground, it made a crisp and muffled sound.
The emperor raised his hand, "Open the red silk!"
The Imperial Guards peeled off the red silk, revealing the true appearance of the Xuanwu Ding. The huge cauldron was engraved with a Xuanwu and the three striking characters "Xuanwu Ding", neatly aligned with the other three cauldrons. .
The civil and military officials were so excited that they knelt down suddenly and shouted, "Long live the emperor!"
“Hahahaha. I finally get to see the Four Tripods return to the palace in my lifetime, hahahaha!” the emperor laughed.
At this time, a bolt of lightning flashed across the sky.
Dekang hurried forward and said, "Your Majesty, it looks like it's going to rain. Please move inside the palace to take shelter from the rain."
The emperor nodded, looked around, and pointed to Taishi Ling Cui Guang, "You arrange for people to stay here and observe for twelve hours. We will see the situation tomorrow. If the rain stops, arrange for people to carefully inspect the Xuanwu Ding. See if there is any damage.”
“Old minister, I understand.” Cui Guang respectfully watched the emperor leave. They began to summon people from the Qintian Prison to come over and work. It was about to rain, so they couldn't do much, but they could still simply check and clean up.
A group of people were busy working, and it took two quarters of an hour for the rain to fall, pattering on the four tripods.
Cui Guang stopped for a moment, turned around and sat down, staring at the four tripods.
In the early morning, the sleeping emperor was woken up by a panicked cry, "Your Majesty, this is bad, something happened!"
“What’s the fuss about?” The emperor opened his eyes in displeasure and quickly got out of bed.
Dekang pointed to the direction where the Xuanwu Cauldron was placed, "There's something going on over there, Mr. Cui!"
The emperor didn't bother to wash up and rushed over with his people.
In the hall, a group of people from Qintian Prison knelt on the ground.
The emperor asked with a gloomy face: "Tell me! What happened?"
Cui Guangzhan stood up tremblingly, hunched over, "Your Majesty, you come with me."
The emperor and Cui Guang walked towards the four tripods together. Cui Guang asked someone to set up a high stool and said, "Your Majesty, just take a look."
The emperor climbed up seriously, but at first glance he couldn't see anything wrong.
Cui Guang had to explain: "Before it rained last night, I asked others to quickly clean the Xuanwu Ding. The Xuanwu Ding itself is very clean. The so-called cleaning is just wiping off the dust on the surface. The Xuanwu Ding is better than the original recovery." The Qinglong Cauldron is still clean, but you see, no one interfered with the rain that night, and the cauldron was filled with accumulated water. The water in the other three cauldrons was as clear as a mirror, without any turbidity.
Look at the Xuanwu tripod again. There are many impurities in it, including sand and gravel deposits, and it is not translucent enough. The four tripods are filled with water, and you can immediately tell that the material of the Xuanwu tripod is different from the other three tripods. "
The emperor subconsciously narrowed his eyes and got down from the high stool after a while, "So the Xuanwu Ding is also fake!"
The emperor was so angry that he laid his corpse thousands of miles away.
Lan Suiwendong and others were rudely escorted into the palace from the post station before they knew what was going on.
They struggled and cursed all the way until they were led to the Xuanwu Cauldron.
The emperor's stern face was like a thousand-year-old ice, staring at a group of them, "Now, who will tell me where the real Xuanwu Ding went?"
Lan Suiwendong's pupils shrank, he looked at the big cauldron beside him in disbelief, and shouted: "This is the genuine Xuanwu Cauldron!"
The emperor took a deep breath and roared fiercely, "Lansui Wendong! I've had it checked. It's completely fake! It's a counterfeit! You can make the fake look just like the real thing, and you still say you don't know the real thing." Where is the Xuanwu Cauldron! Are you thinking that I won’t kill you?”
Lan Suiwendong fell to the ground with weak legs, eyes wide open, "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! We really don't know! Both the Xuanwu Ding and Princess Wuya were given to us by the King! Our mission is only to **** the Xuanwu Ding I will go to Beijing to get married, and then sign an agreement with you, that’s all!”
He was really anxious now. He had not calculated that the Xuanwu Cauldron was fake. Could it be that King Wuya was crazy and wanted to kill the entire Wuya tribe?
His mind was spinning all over the place, and he couldn't figure it out no matter how he thought about it. The more he thought about it, the more confused he became.
Seeing his anxious look, the emperor generally believed that he didn't know anything about it, but he became more and more angry and said angrily: "Come here! Go and take Princess Wuya into the palace for me to interrogate carefully. I want to know the whereabouts of the real Xuanwu Ding! Also, given Wang Chuanxin told King Ding to capture King Wuya alive! If you dare to tease me like this, I will never give you mercy!"
