Here, Emperor Yu asked the palace maid Xiaozhu to repeat what he just said in front of the third prince. It is extremely easy for a mere palace maid to be bribed. Such people are very timid. As long as they are tortured, are they afraid that they will not be able to tell the truth?
His Yuan'er has always been pure and kind, how could he do such a thing.
Confronting him in front of everyone is nothing more than giving the Ji family an explanation.
With this thought in his mind, Emperor Yu raised his hand to signal the palace maid to speak.
Xiaozhu seemed to be frightened by Emperor Yu's moody expression, and started to say nothing at the end of the sentence. "No, no, no, the poison was put by His Highness the Third Highness, and the rumors were not put out by the slaves. No, no, the rumors were put out by the slaves. The poison was put by His Highness the Imperial Master into Lord Ji's wine glass."
Everyone became more and more confused as they listened, but no matter how they reversed the order, both things were related to the third prince.
Who is the third prince? Even if Emperor Yu personally offered the throne to him, he would refuse on the grounds that he would not live long. What reason would such a person have to poison Lord Ji?
But the two young masters of the Ji family are different. I believe it is written all over their faces.
Ji Linfeng stepped forward angrily and asked Bei Hengyuan: "Third prince, why did you poison my father? Tell me? Why? Why did our Ji family offend you? My father devoted half his life to Sheng Yu and never did anything like this." I'm sorry for the people of Sheng Yu. My eldest brother was injured by thieves and became disabled for life. "
Thinking of Ji Hua’s thoughts and the final outcome of the Ji family. Ji Linfeng really wanted to kill the wolf in sheep's clothing in front of him with one punch. I really want to tear off the hypocritical mask on his face and crush it severely.
At this moment, Ji Linfeng screamed for the dead Ji family from the bottom of his heart.
Now they are like reborn people, experiencing the things they have experienced before again after knowing the ending.
Ji Linfeng vividly performed the role of a filial son who cares about his father.
The ministers on the side were all dumbfounded. Did Young Master Ji believe the words of the palace maid? how can that be possible? The third prince had been poisoned by a strange poison for six years, and it was a luxury to live for even one more day. How could it be possible to poison Lord Ji?
Seeing Emperor Yu's face gloomy and terrifying, the prince hurriedly stepped forward to hold Ji Linfeng, who was so excited that he was about to lose his mind. He advised: "Second Young Master, please don't get excited. This matter may not have been done by Third Brother. Third Brother has a pure nature and is weak, so there is no need to make enemies for himself."
Being disobedient in front of the palace is a provocation to the royal family. Seeing this, Eunuch De also hurriedly came down and helped the excited Ji Linfeng with the prince. "Second Young Master, calm down, calm down. This is in front of the emperor. Don't make your majesty angry."
Prime Minister Lu on the side also echoed the prince's words and came forward to advise Ji Linfeng not to commit trouble at this time.
In the eyes of everyone, Ji Linfeng himself was rebellious. When Lord Ji died, it was good that he did not enter the palace.
How could Ji Linfeng stay calm after such a big thing happened? He knelt on the ground, punched the ground with his fists, and asked the third prince angrily with hatred on his face: "Why? Why?"
Then he seemed to have thought of something, and looked particularly frightened: "Could it be that he has been pretending all these years? The purpose is to find an opportunity to get rid of my father?" Ji Linfeng's voice was neither loud nor quiet, and he was pulled forward just in time. His three heard.
At this moment, the eyes of the three of them were trembling.
The prince’s brows immediately frowned.
Even though the third prince acted calmly, his body still trembled after hearing Ji Linfeng's words.
Ji Linfeng looked at it and snorted coldly in his heart: See if I don’t scare you to death.
Ji Linfeng calmed down and knelt on the ground with a bang, begging for mercy. "I lost my mind for a moment, please ask Your Majesty to punish me."
The calmness at this time was in sharp contrast to the excitement just now, giving people the impression that the person just now was messing around was not himself.
The prince's eyebrows furrowed even deeper. What did Ji Linfeng's move seem to be telling him?
Emperor Yu was so angry that his face became even more gloomy. If he didn't want to bear the infamy after killing Zhongliang in anger, how could he let a young boy be so reckless in front of the emperor. How could he publicly punish a filial son who sought justice for his father? At this time, he can only be a good emperor who loves his people like his own son.
Emperor Yu suppressed his anger and said: "I understand the second master's mood very well. However, there are many doubts about this matter, and we need to ask more details. But I promise that no matter who it is, I will definitely seek justice for the Ji family."
Emperor Yu asked Bei Hengyuan with a sullen face: "Yuan'er, please tell the truth whether you did this or not."
Bei Hengyuan shook his head firmly as Emperor Yu expected: "Your minister is very sympathetic to the Ji family's plight, but this matter was not done by your minister."
After hearing this, Emperor Yu was very satisfied. He turned to the palace maid and said angrily: "You brave bitch, who asked you to pour the stolen money on the prince? It's true." Emperor Yu slapped the table with his palm, frightening the palace maid to tremble.
Suddenly, the palace maid's eyes lit up, as if she suddenly remembered something and she said smugly: "I remember, I was the one who spread the rumors, and the poison was administered by the Third Prince. I really remembered it right this time." ”
This time, the maid no longer spoke incoherently, but spoke clearly. He also looked like he was happy because he remembered it. It doesn't look like he's lying.
Emperor Yu was so angry that he flew into a rage.
"You bastard, you still dare to bite randomly, come here, give me a beating, until she says so." Emperor Yu was so angry that he directly ordered people to do it.
Immediately, two forbidden soldiers waiting outside the door rushed into the house. Emperor Yu glanced at the two men, indicating that they should know the seriousness. If they were beaten to death, they would really be dead.
The two of them understood the meaning and immediately pressed the person to the ground, raised the board high and then dropped it hard. It looked like they were using force, but in reality it was mostly intimidating.
“Spare your life, Your Majesty, everything I say is true. I dare not deceive the Emperor.” Xiaozhu screamed at the top of his lungs. Emperor Yu didn't believe it and ordered the two forbidden troops to continue fighting. Everyone present frowned.
Seeing that Xiaozhu’s **** was spanked until it was bloody, she still insisted on telling the truth.
“Slave, I really don’t dare to deceive the emperor. Every word I say is the truth.”
"The truth. The so-called truth is to tell the person behind the scenes, and I will spare your life. You have to think carefully about it." Emperor Yu looked at the palace maid with a look full of threats.
The prince's eyes fell on Emperor Yu's face, and the fists hanging in his sleeves tightened. At this moment, what did he seem to understand?
Emperor Yu thought to himself, if I give him two more blows, he will always say it when he can't bear it anymore. Who would have known that he would not speak until he vomited blood, but he was a tough guy.
Before she told the truth, she couldn't die. If torture didn't work, she had to think of another way.
With this in mind, Emperor Yu raised his hand to signal to stop. Unexpectedly, Xiaozhu, who had just played eighteen strokes, suddenly raised his head and spit out a mouthful of blood. He turned his head and looked at the third prince, crying out loud as he spoke.
She said: "Third Highness, didn't you promise me that if something happens to me, you will protect me? Now, you are indifferent." As soon as she finished speaking, the person lost his life.
Just, died so suddenly?
Ji Linfeng seized the opportunity, his face changed, and he said loudly: "It's clearly you, what else do you have to say?"
