Forced to be a third person: I turned around and left the palace to marry a villain
Chapter 374: Really Falling into the Trap
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Xue clapped her hands, and a group of masked men were brought up and knelt in a row in front of Emperor Beiling.
"At 3:00 tonight, this group of people disguised themselves as eunuchs and sneaked into the palace to assassinate the emperor. Fortunately, General Nan heard the emperor's cry for help when he entered the palace to meet him, and acted in time to avoid a disaster, but the emperor still suffered a minor injury to his right arm. When this group of people were arrested, they insisted that they were following the orders of King Huan. I guess His Highness King Huan must be very familiar with them."
Jiang Xue took off the hoods of these people one by one. Xiao Huan looked at their faces and his expression changed drastically.
These people were the ones who had joined him in persecuting the Jiang family and insulting Jiang Xuan.
In order to destroy the evidence, he deliberately disbanded these people and found so-called "bandits" to replace them.
Since then, he has never seen these people again, and he didn't expect to see them again here today.
"Your Highness, Prince Huan, please save us."
"Your Highness, help us! We are only following your orders."
"Your Highness, we are loyal to you. We are following your orders in the assassination. You cannot ignore us."
As soon as they saw Xiao Huan, these people seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw and desperately asked him for help.
"Shut up, I don't even know you, how dare you frame me? Do you know that framing a member of the royal family is a capital crime."
Xiao Huan shouted angrily. If he could stand up, given his temper, he would have slapped these people's heads off.
What assassination, what orders? Ever since he left the palace, he has been staying in Prince Huan's mansion and has not taken a single step out.
This was a completely unfounded order, he never issued it.
"Your Highness Prince Huan is so courageous. Even with irrefutable evidence, he can still put the blame on others so confidently. Changle really admires him. Well, let's put aside the assassination for now and talk about the theft of arms. This was witnessed by everyone. Your Highness Prince Huan will not want to deny it, right?"
Stealing arms and hiding soldiers and horses are serious crimes of treason. In public, Xiao Huan could not defend himself even if he had a thousand mouths.
"Oh, you are the thief crying thief, Lu Linyi. You personally handed the key to the military supply depot to me. If we really want to investigate, the Zhenbei Marquisate will also be charged with treason."
Since he couldn't deny it, he had to find someone to take the blame for it. Xiao Huan grabbed the tree trunk with one hand and pointed at Lu Linyi with the other bloody hand, roaring like thunder.
Lu Linyi was already afraid of Xiao Huan, and now he was being stared at by his venomous eyes and roared at in public, which frightened him so much that his face turned pale.
Upon seeing this, Nan Jingxing immediately stood in front of her, blocking Xiao Huan's sight and protecting her behind him.
"Seventh brother, the evidence of your guilt is solid, don't make false accusations. You said that this key was given to you by Miss Lu, what evidence do you have?" Seeing that Lu Linyi was frightened, Xiao Zhan stepped forward and confronted Xiao Huan head-on.
"Evidence? Humph! This woman came to my Prince Huan's mansion with the key. Everyone in my mansion is a witness."
"Really? Then why not let the servants of Prince Huan's Mansion judge for themselves?"
As soon as Xiao Zhan finished speaking, all the servants of Prince Huan's mansion were brought forward.
"You know the consequences of lying in front of the emperor, right? If you don't want to be beheaded for deceiving the emperor, just tell the truth. Do you understand?" Xiao Zhan gave an order and the servants nodded repeatedly like chicks pecking at rice.
"Your master said that the key to the armory was given to him by Miss Lu, is that right?" Xiao Zhan asked.
The attendants looked at Xiao Huan, then at Lu Linyi, exchanged glances, and answered in unison: "No."
"Nonsense, how dare you talk nonsense." Xiao Huan's heart was more flustered than ever before.
He roared hysterically, his face distorted.
"Shut up." Emperor Beiling felt a headache because of his noise. The burning pain on his right arm reminded him of the fact that he was assassinated. He wanted to kill his son even more.
His bloodshot eyes stared at Xiao Huan, and he pointed at the attendants in the air: "One or two dared to deceive the emperor, don't they want to live? Do you think everyone is like you, bold and reckless, with evil intentions? I have raised you for more than ten years, and I think I have treated you well, but what about you!
You are so ruthless and ambitious that you dared to kill your father and your king, and secretly hide your troops. My Xiao royal family has been wise for thousands of years, but this generation has produced a scum like you."
The more Emperor Beiling spoke, the more excited he became. His face turned as red as an apple and he almost couldn't breathe.
The queen saw this and feared that he might develop some kind of illness, so she quickly patted him gently on the chest and back to help him calm down.
It took a while for Emperor Beiling to recover. His complexion and breathing slowly returned to normal, and then he began to speak.
"Come here, Xiao Huan, this rebellious son, has committed the heinous crimes of regicide, betrayal of his father, deceiving the emperor, stealing arms, and plotting against his will! The evidence is irrefutable, his crime is unforgivable, the title of King Huan will be revoked, he will be expelled from the royal family, demoted to a slave, and detained by the Court of Justice. In three days, he will be beheaded, and there will be no leniency."
As soon as he finished speaking, the cancer that was Xiao Huan was finally completely eliminated.
"Your Majesty, I beg you to eliminate all these assassins at once."
Xiao Huan, the mastermind behind the incident, has been arrested, but Nan Jingxing will certainly not let go of the remaining guys who bullied Jiang Xuan.
"Approved." Emperor Beiling had just experienced great joy and great sorrow, and his energy was almost exhausted.
After dealing with Xiao Huan, he felt exhausted physically and mentally, and really had no time to care about anything else. Since Nan Jingxing volunteered, he was happy to throw the mess to him. With the queen's support and surrounded by officials, he returned to the palace.
"Tieyi, help General Nan take these people back."
Seeing that the Yulin soldiers were short of manpower, Xiao Zhan asked Tieyi to take the people from Prince Gong's Mansion to lend a hand.
"Your Highness, Princess, thank you very much."
Nan Jingxing bowed deeply to Xiao Zhan and his wife. This "thank you" contained so much meaning.
Jiang Xuan's revenge and Lu Linyi's suffering both came to the best end on this night.
If it weren't for the couple's careful planning, Nan Jingxing might not even know the truth of what happened, let alone revenge.
Nan Jingxing will always remember the kindness of Feng and Xiao in his heart.
"You guessed right. Xiao Huan really fell into Jiang Xue's trap."
In the abandoned house in the south of the city, Mo Xue didn't even knock on the door and went straight into the study. Jun Li was writing with a pen, and when he got closer, he saw that all the names written on the paper were Jiang Xue's.
"I didn't realize you were so interested in that little girl. What's wrong? You always feel itchy when you can't have her?"
Mo Xue snorted coldly, put her hand on the paper that Jun Li had just written, and moved closer to him with an ambiguous look.
"Did the Emperor of Beiling say when Xiao Huan's head would be chopped off?"
Jun Li didn't respond to her words. He looked at the paper crumpled in her hands, frowning slightly, but he didn't show any unhappiness. He just asked his question lightly.
