After rebirth, she turned around and married the emperor's uncle and tore the scumbag apart
Chapter 191 Forced into a desperate situation
After Xiao Yu's breathing gradually became smooth, he slowly raised his head which was buried in Su Lingyue's neck.
Has it come to this?
In a few days, I might not even be able to hold her...
Thinking of this, Xiao Yu tightened his hands on Su Lingyue's waist and lowered his eyes to hide the sadness in his eyes.
Su Lingyue was aware of Xiao Yu's abnormality. She stroked his face with her warm hands and asked, "How are you? Are you feeling better?"
"It's like this every winter. I'm used to it. But this year is an exception." Xiao Yu touched Su Lingyue's forehead, looking at Su Lingyue with a smile without blinking.
There was no other emotion except laughter.
"What exception?" Su Lingyue asked curiously.
"With the princess's warm embrace this year, things seem to be improving." Xiao Yu raised his eyebrows, a faint smile in his eyes, like ripples in spring water.
"...Is that so...Then let you hold me." Su Lingyue spoke stutteringly and lowered her head to hide the heat on her face.
Xiao Yu didn't often say such things, but when he suddenly said it, Su Lingyue felt her heart beating unusually fast, her mind went blank, and she couldn't remember anything else.
When Xiao Yu and his party arrived in front of Longhua Temple, the first day's blessing ceremony had already ended, and the emperor and his party were enjoying vegetarian meals in the hall.
Hearing Han Feng's words, the emperor slammed his chopsticks heavily on the table.
Because of the emperor's anger, others put down their bowls and chopsticks and dared not eat.
"Where are they?" The emperor put his hands on the table, clenched into fists, and asked in a cold voice.
Han Feng cupped his hands and replied, "Your Majesty, it's outside in the courtyard."
The emperor stood up, emitting a chill, and strode out.
The queen's heart sank and she followed the emperor's steps closely.
Xiao Changshi and Xiao Changan, who were sitting not far away, also heard Han Feng's words and followed the queen out of the dining hall.
Seeing that the emperor, empress and princes had all gone out, the ministers in the hall also followed them out.
In the huge courtyard of Longhua Temple, the emperor, empress and ministers stood in front of the main hall.
Opposite them, He Zhang was supporting Tutor He, Xiao Yu and Su Lingyue were standing together, with Yan Qing and Yun Ting following behind them.
Under the setting sun at dusk, a cold wind blew by, and Su Lingyue shrank back and moved closer to Xiao Yu.
The emperor's gaze was fixed on several people, and when he saw Tutor He and Xiao Yu standing together, his gaze darkened even more.
He had already told Han Feng not to let anyone leave the city, so why did the tutor come out anyway?
Moreover, she was with Xiao Yu.
"Master, why are you here?" The emperor's eyes were cold and his words were full of displeasure.
The Grand Tutor bowed respectfully and saluted the Emperor, then said loudly: "Your Majesty, I have hurried here only to make a report on one person."
"who?"
"I would like to report Sima Changfeng for assassinating my son He Zhang while he was praying for blessings. He forced my son to jump off a cliff. Fortunately, he survived the ordeal. Your Majesty, please make a decision for my son and restore the integrity of the court!"
The emperor's eyes darkened, and he asked in a cold voice: "Do you have any evidence for what you said, Grand Tutor?"
At this time, Xiao Yu, who had been silent, stepped forward and said, "I also want to report Sima Changfeng for assassinating my husband and me while we were praying for blessings, and forcing us to jump off the cliff, which almost killed my husband and me. Your Majesty, please severely punish Sima Changfeng and give justice to my husband and me!"
One person may commit fraud, but when two people participate together, the credibility increases a lot.
Especially one of them is the emperor's younger brother.
Everyone started talking.
"This Sima Changfeng is so bold that he dared to assassinate the emperor's relatives!"
"He has done so many things!"
"Keep your voice down, His Majesty hasn't said anything yet!"
……
Ignoring the discussion behind him, the emperor said, "Prince Su! The seventh day of Concubine Zhen's death has not yet passed. Why don't you return to the palace to stand guard for him instead of talking nonsense here?"
Su Lingyue was shocked when these words were spoken.
What is the seventh day after death? What is the wake? When did Concubine Zhen die?
She looked up at Xiao Yu, only to see that Xiao Yu's eyes were the same cold as before, without any change.
Xiao Yu said in a deep voice: "I am here for this matter as well. I heard from the people that the person who broke into the palace and set fire was Sima Changfeng. Your Majesty, please give justice to my husband and wife, and to my mother!"
"I know!" The emperor put away the chill around him and said calmly, "This matter is complicated. Since you have reported him, I will have someone investigate it thoroughly. If it was Sima Changfeng who did it, I will not forgive him!"
"It's getting late, you should go into the temple and rest first. Tell Duan Aiqing the details, and let the Dali Temple investigate this matter."
Duan Xu is a very smooth person and he never offends anyone when doing things.
If this matter is handed over to him, and if the emperor is determined to protect Sima Changfeng, this matter will surely fall into oblivion.
"Your Majesty, this matter involves two members of the royal family, a fifth-rank general of the imperial court, and my mother's body is still warm. I'm afraid the Dali Temple alone will not be able to take care of it."
Xiao Yu continued, "Sima Changfeng dared to kill even the son of Grand Tutor He. What other ministers would he not dare to touch? As long as he does not surrender to the law, the lords here may die one day."
The emperor turned the ring on his thumb, his face terribly gloomy. He had wanted to get the matter over with today and ask Sima Changfeng what happened when he came back another day.
If possible, he didn't want to lose Sima Changfeng's sword.
"The Dali Temple has dozens of officials, both big and small. Is Prince Su questioning the decision of His Majesty, or the Dali Temple's ability to do things?"
Xiao Yu raised his eyes and saw Su Heng, who had been silent all the time, speaking at this moment.
Su Lingyue's heart tightened. Her father was trying to throw the dirty water of questioning the imperial power on Xiao Yu, and it would also cause confrontation between the Dali Temple officials and Xiao Yu.
The emperor said nothing, just looked at Xiao Yu coldly, waiting for his answer.
Su Lingyue raised her eyes and saw Xiao Yu staring at Su Heng for a moment, then said slowly: "I want to find out the truth as soon as possible, arrest the murderer, give justice to my mother, and give peace of mind to the living, and..."
"Restore your Majesty's innocence."
Once these words were spoken, it was like a stone thrown into a calm lake.
Su Heng's eyes darkened, and he shouted sternly, "Prince Su, what do you mean by this?"
Xiao Yu did not answer, but just looked at the emperor coldly.
The emperor wanted to shirk responsibility for this matter, but Su Heng stood up and said what the emperor was not convenient to say, so he could naturally sit on the mountain and watch the fight.
But Xiao Yu didn't want his wish to come true.
Xiao Yu would not answer unless the emperor spoke.
Let the ripples of doubt spread among the crowd.
Behind the emperor, every pair of eyes was staring at him.
Everyone knew that Sima Changfeng was not under the jurisdiction of any official and only obeyed the emperor's orders.
Now Sima Changfeng wanted to assassinate the prince, assassinate a fifth-rank general of the imperial court, and kill a royal concubine.
Everything points to the emperor.
"Your Majesty, please give my son justice!"
At this time, Tutor He, who had been standing aside for a long time, knelt down in front of the emperor and knocked his head heavily on the ground.
"Dad!" He Zhang called out and knelt down as well.
Upon seeing this, He Wen hurried over to Master He and knelt down beside him.
The sound was so loud that even the minor official standing at the end of the crowd could hear it.
This move was like throwing a huge rock into a lake, causing even bigger waves and bringing the officials' panic to a peak.
The emperor's eyes were full of sinisterness, and his voice was cold, "Taifu, are you going to force me too? You are my teacher!"
"Your Majesty, please give my son justice!" Tutor He was unmoved and shouted loudly.
"Your Majesty, please give justice to General He and Prince Su!"
A censor from the Imperial Academy then knelt down and knocked his head to the ground.
Seeing this, the others knelt down.
"Your Majesty, please give them justice and give peace of mind to all officials!"
"Your Majesty, please give them justice and give peace of mind to all officials!"
……
For a moment, the sounds continued, rising and falling.
Xiao Yu stood quietly, looking at the emperor calmly, watching him being forced into a desperate situation little by little.
"Sima Changfeng is extremely evil. From today on, the secret guards will be abolished. The three departments will investigate this matter together. Once confirmed, they will be dealt with according to the laws of Daning!"
The emperor said sternly, his eyes bloodshot, and the red agate ring in his hand broke into several pieces.
He stared at Xiao Yu with cold eyes, as if he wanted to cut Xiao Yu into pieces.
Xiao Yu curled his lips and chuckled, "Your Majesty is wise!"
