Newlyweds divorced: Marry a scumbag and his brother is sweet and have a baby

"Yan Zhaoyue, what else do you have to say?" Emperor Xuande asked angrily.

"Your Majesty, everything was ordered by me and has nothing to do with the eldest princess."

At this time, a voice came from the entrance of the palace. Everyone looked up and saw Yan Chonghou stumbling over quickly and kneeling in front of Emperor Xuande.

"Did you instigate it?" Emperor Xuande knew that Yan Chonghou wanted to take the blame for Yan Zhaoyue.

After all, in the eyes of outsiders, Yan Zhaoyue is the eldest prince's concubine, and she is likely to become the prince's concubine and queen in the future.

If that were the case, it would bring endless glory to the Yan family.

Compared to the position of Minister of the Ministry of War, the position of Princess Baoda is certainly more worthwhile.

But little did they know that Emperor Xuande was determined to uproot the family, and they could not keep either the position of the eldest princess or the position of minister.

"Then tell me, how did you instruct people to burn the most beautiful things in the world?" Emperor Xuande asked.

Last night there were flames and thick smoke billowing into the sky, and the smell of burning could be smelled for miles around.

Of course, Yan Chonghou also knew about the burning of the most beautiful thing in the world. He replied, "The guilty minister ordered people to light a fire and burn the most beautiful thing in the world in the dead of night."

"You Ning, is this true?" Emperor Xuande asked Shen Yan.

"No." Shen Yan said, "Your Majesty, the people who set the fire are outside. Let them come in and ask questions."

"Bring people in!"

Lin Xiaoliu brought in the people who set the fire. When Emperor Xuande asked, they all arrested him.

"It was the eldest princess who asked us to burn the most beautiful thing in the world. We took advantage of the silence of the night and poured tung oil into it. We didn't leave until the fire got bigger and the watchman discovered it."

"Nonsense!" Yan Zhaoyue was furious. She spent a lot of money to bribe these two people and let them run away after setting fire. Who would have thought that these two people would be caught and even come as witnesses.

"Presumptuous!" Emperor Xuande shouted, "The evidence is irrefutable, don't even think about making excuses!"

Yan Zhaoyue kowtowed, "Father, my daughter-in-law is really innocent, it must be them!"

She pointed at Shen Yan and He Qianqian, "Shen Yan bribed He Qianqian, and they worked together to harm my daughter-in-law. Father, you have to make the decision for your daughter-in-law."

"Shameless woman, you still haven't repented until now! Since you still have royal blood in your belly, I will spare your life for the time being. However, you can avoid the death penalty, but you cannot escape the living penalty!"

Emperor Xuande was furious, "The Yan family plotted to kill King Ling, ordered people to set fire to hurt others, cruel methods, vicious heart, unrepentant, now demoted to common people, waiting to give birth to royal blood, and expelled from the palace!"

Yan Zhaoyue's face turned pale, and she collapsed on the ground, shaking her head, unable to believe that what she saw in front of her was the truth.

She couldn't help Shen Yan, so she wanted to destroy what Shen Yan cared about and take revenge on Shen Yan.

Unexpectedly, she trapped herself in a cocoon and ruined everything about herself.

"Your Majesty, you can't..." Yan Chonghou wanted to plead with Emperor Xuande.

"Yan Chonghou!" Emperor Xuande shouted.

"The sinner is here."

"As a minister, you deceived the emperor and ignored your superiors. As a father, you were lax in raising your daughter. You can't sit in this position of minister. Go back and reflect on yourself!" Emperor Xuande dismissed Yan Chonghou with a single word. The position of Shangshu.

If this happened before, he would never dare to do this.

At that time, the aristocratic family was in power. If he dismissed Yan Chonghou, Yan Chonghou would simply give up his job, and would also lead other people from the aristocratic family to stop working.

Things are different now. Some people who used to obey Yan Chonghou now disobey him.

Moreover, Shen Yan is one person, and Yan Chonghou is the leader of ten people.

After Emperor Xuande said these words, his heart suddenly felt very happy.

He had wanted to say this for a long time, and he finally said it today.

Yan Chonghou was startled. He did not expect that Emperor Xuande would punish him so severely.

You have no jokes.

Even if he begs for mercy now, Emperor Xuande will not take back his will, and he also knows that Emperor Xuande has wanted to do this for a long time.

In this case, it is better to leave a trace of dignity for yourself, pretend to obey the order, return home and lie dormant, waiting for the right time to make a comeback.

"The guilty minister obeys the decree." Yan Chonghou buried his head on the ground and kowtowed hard.

Outsiders only thought that he was sincerely repenting, and no one saw the cold light and fierceness in his eyes.

At this time, a chamberlain reported, "Your Majesty, Chief He Shan is here."

"Xuan!"

He Wentang stepped into the hall and saw several people kneeling in front of him. He knew that he was late.

Moreover, he has missed the best opportunity to plead his case. At present, it seems that the only way to survive is to confess his guilt honestly and retreat in order to advance.

"Your Majesty, I am here too late. I have taught such an unfaithful, unjust, unfilial and unkind evil girl. I deserve death!"

He Wentang burst into tears. After he finished his performance, he straightened his back and looked righteous, magnanimous and decisive.

"Your Majesty, as the headmaster of the academy, the guilty subject did not even manage his own daughter well. He is really unworthy of the position of the headmaster. The guilty subject asks the emperor to remove the guilty subject from the post of the academy!"

After he finished speaking, he looked at Emperor Xuande and thought to himself, Emperor Xuande would probably appreciate him for being so submissive and confessing his crime.

However, unexpectedly, Emperor Xuande said lightly, "I'm sure."

He Wentang was dumbfounded.

The other courtiers in the palace were also stunned, except Shen Yan and Xie Huaijing.

Emperor Xuande looked at He Wentang's stunned expression and asked, "Did Chief He regret it after he finished speaking?"

He Wentang looked embarrassed, but quickly explained, "I don't dare."

"Then you still don't want to thank me?" Emperor Xuande looked cold.

"Thank you Lord for your kindness!" He Wentang pulled his hands tightly inside his sleeves, and he just lost his position as mountain chief, which he had been doing for many years.

Be the leader of the mountain, and you will have peaches and plums all over the world.

Any student who leaves the academy must give him some respect.

Therefore, it was extremely convenient for him to get things done in the past.

From now on, such good things will no longer exist.

"In addition, the Jiuzhou Chess Competition is coming soon. Your current status is no longer suitable to be the team leader. You will be dismissed along with this position of team leader." Emperor Xuande said.

"Your Majesty, you must not do this!" Ning Zhengxun, who had been silent, spoke up.

"Ning Guo Gong has any opinion?" Emperor Xuande asked.

"Your Majesty, you have already said that the competition is about to take place. Where can we find someone to lead the team?" Ning Zhengxun said, "Moreover, He Wentang is an outstanding chess player and has led a team to participate in competitions. There is no one more suitable to be the team leader than him." .”

"Why is there no suitable person? How could Daqin, which is so big, not even find a team leader?" Emperor Xuande looked at Shen Yan, "You Ning, you will lead the team to participate in the competition!"
