I made millions after becoming a tyrant's concubine

Huo Zheng's figure was upright and upright, and the crown robe on his body highlighted his imposing manner.

He turned around slowly, facing the officials and royal family members under the steps, and Huo Zong's resentful accusation, Huo Zheng said softly:

"The emperor's brother was abolished because his biological mother killed the heirs of the harem. He held a grudge and formed a party to oppress his father. As a result, he missed the position of heir. I know you have a grudge against me. As for whether I am the heir of the late emperor, doesn't the late emperor know?"

Huo Zong sneered: "Father has already returned to heaven, so you can naturally blame all these things on him. Huo Zheng, let me ask you, do you dare to admit it? Not only are you not the heir of the late emperor, even your father It is not the intention of the emperor to depose me, but your instruction!"

Huo Zheng stared quietly at Huo Zong in front of him, his eyes were calm and unwavering, taking into account the expressions of everyone in front of him.

At this time, several courtiers in the court stood up one after another, saluted Huo Zheng:

"Now I still call you Your Majesty, but if you are not the biological heir of the late emperor, you are not qualified to sit on the throne."

"Your Majesty, please clarify the mystery of this identity, so as to solve the doubts in the hearts of the ministers and others."

"Please tell the truth, Your Majesty, so that your face won't be hurt when the evidence comes out."

……

Huo Zheng also kept those who spoke in mind, and did not respond formally. Instead, it was the King Ying who looked gloomy:

"Huo Zong, you have no evidence for such an unfounded accusation."

"Wait." Huo Zheng said suddenly, making them all look at Huo Zheng, he said, "By taking advantage of today's anniversary of the death of the emperor, are you planning to join hands in a public trial?"

"Are you still talking about whether you are of royal blood? What is your name?" Huo Zong said angrily, and then bowed to King Ying, "Uncle Mingjian, my nephew has lived in Fangzhou for a long time these years, and every year he submits to the court. I wanted to go back to Beijing to worship my ancestors and my father, but His Majesty never agreed. This year, His Majesty suddenly allowed my nephew to return to Beijing, but he put him under house arrest in Huayang Palace and did not let him go out."

King Ying frowned, hiding a little anger.

Huo Zong continued: "But my nephew was not reconciled, so after a secret investigation, I found out that Huo Zheng's intentions were so deep that he wanted to kill me by luring me back to Beijing, because he suspected that the thieves who appeared in the palace earlier were It has something to do with my nephew, but my nephew was wronged! That's why my nephew investigated secretly, and found out that my father abolished me because their mother and son slandered my father, which made me stay alone in Fangzhou To be filial to the emperor."

Speaking of emotional remorse, Huo Zong even slumped on the ground, grabbed King Ying's clothes, buried his head in his lap and wept bitterly.

King Ying is the brother of the late emperor, and he also knew Huo Zong's temperament after seeing Huo Zong's birth and growth with his own eyes. Compared with Huo Zheng who came back from the Taoist temple when he was seven or eight years old, he is naturally not very close.

Seeing that Huo Zong was crying so much, he quickly pulled him up to comfort him, and then said:

"Huo Zheng, even if you are the emperor, you still have to pay attention to human relations and principles. This king is your uncle and your elder. I will ask you today. Is what your brother said the truth?"

Huo Zheng said calmly, "I respect my uncle, and I will naturally respect my uncle. It's just that I can't recognize his empty teeth."

"Uncle, uncle, nephew has witnesses, witnesses!" Huo Zong said anxiously, and then called for someone to come.

Under the leadership of his guards, Shang Gong Zhen Guanwan from the Shang Palace Bureau, and the old Taoist priest from Yunqingguan walked in from outside the Taimiao.

This discerning person knew at a glance that Huo Zong had come prepared and planned to pull Huo Zheng down.

After the two of them entered the Taimiao, they lowered their eyebrows and bowed their heads, not daring to look around. They just bowed in a proper manner, and then knelt down in front of Huo Zheng.

Huo Zong glanced at Zhen Wanwan, looked up at Huo Zheng again, and then said, "Zhen Shanggong, tell me what you saw."

Zhen Wanwan looked up at Huo Zheng's eyes, fell down on the ground as if frightened, and said in a panic: "As a female official of the Shang Palace Bureau, I have to deal with trivial matters in the harem every day. Time met Qian Chengjun in the Changning Palace. Qian Chengjun told the minister that the reason why he was deposed was because he knew the secret of your majesty, so he was deposed. He was worried that he would be silenced, so he told the reason minister."

"Qian Chengjun was very friendly to the servant Gong'e in the palace. Everyone thought of him well, so he also learned the truth about the fact that King Cheng was deposed back then. It was because the queen mother spoke in front of the former emperor. Even His Majesty felt that King Cheng should be sent to Fangzhou, so the late Emperor would be so decisive."

Qian Yanzhi, who was standing just behind Huo Zheng, had a good time watching the show, and even complained to the system about their acting skills in real time, but he didn't expect to eat melons on his own head in the end.

Qian Yanzhi: 'Damn it!When did I say those words. '

【Well... because there is no evidence for 'death'】

Qian Yanzhi: '...well, I accept this setting. ’ King Ying was at a loss when he heard this: "Then where is Qian Chengjun?"

Zhen Wanwan said: "When I went to the Changning Palace a few days ago, I wanted to bring some winter supplies for Qian Chengjun, but unexpectedly Qian Chengjun avoided seeing him. Remembering what Chengjun said, I was a little worried, Then I went to Changning Hall quietly in the middle of the night, but only saw Chengjun's substitute, as for Chengjun, it is said that his Majesty has murdered him, and even the corpse was never found."

After hearing this, King Ying was full of anger, pointed at Huo Zheng and said, "You are the king of a country, it is not easy to kill a person, why did you kill that Qian Chengjun, and you did it so secretly, is it true? What your brother said was related to you."

Huo Zheng was not annoyed, but just watched silently, as if pulling himself out, as if he was not the one being questioned, he said indifferently: "No, it has nothing to do with me, uncle can you be trusted?"

"Since it's irrelevant, why did you kill that Chengjun!" King Ying asked.

"Well..." Huo Zheng's eyes finally fluctuated, but it was fleeting, "He doesn't serve well."

Qian Yanzhi stared at his back angrily: "..." I want to bite you to death.

However, as soon as these words came out, all of them coughed and turned their faces slightly as if they had heard something they shouldn't have heard.

Only Huo Zongdao: "Uncle, why don't you listen to what this old Taoist priest from Yunqingguan said."

Only then did King Ying come to his senses, and hurriedly asked him to speak.

The old Taoist seemed to be used to big scenes, so he wasn't flustered, but after saluting to cheer, he said slowly:

"When the Empress Dowager came to the Taoist temple, there was indeed a man who followed him and took good care of him. Because he was from the palace, the poor Taoist also thought that the man was the inner eunuch or imperial envoy of the palace."

"Who is that person?" King Ying asked.

The old Taoist lowered his eyes and thought for a while, and then said: "A few years ago, he came to the Taoist temple to offer incense. Later, the poor Taoist learned that he turned out to be Yang Xinhou, Li Chang, who was later murdered for treason."

King Ying looked stunned, and Huo Zheng gradually clenched his fists. Qian Yanzhi knew that the queen mother was Huo Zheng's rebel, so he was really worried that Huo Zheng would get out of control and kill someone because he heard the queen mother's bad words, so he had to stretch out his hand to grab him. Pulling his sleeve, Huo Zheng was forced to calm down, and let go of his clenched fist.

Huo Zong looked at Huo Zheng, and continued to ask the old Taoist: "What happened to them after they entered the Taoist temple?"

The old Taoist replied: "They seem to be close, just like the loving couple among the pilgrims. Every two or three days, the Marquis would go to Yunqingguan's secluded courtyard for Mrs. Yang at that time, and occasionally bring them to Mrs. Yang. There are many valuable things, and even the servants who sent them here, but Lord Hou said that they are his relatives, and the poor Taoist is a practitioner of Taoism, so naturally he will not talk about it with the brothers and sisters in Guanzhong."

Not much to say, just a few words.

Yang Xinhou and the original queen mother seemed to be a loving couple, and they visited every now and then, and the servants sent on errands would feel that there was an affair between the queen mother and Yang Xinhou.

It's just that no one can prove whether this love started before or after Donggong became favored, and they can only say what they want.

Now that the secrets of Empress Dowager Yang were so exposed to everyone, Huo Zheng, because of Qian Yanzhi's appeasement, stabilized his mind and focused on the overall situation.

King Ying turned pale when he heard this, and looked at the person in front of him in disbelief: "In the end, in the end...what should I do."

Huo Zongdao: "Uncle, how can a person like Huo Zheng, who is of unknown origin, be able to offer sacrifices to his father, and how can he inherit the foundation created by our Huo family ancestors? Uncle, all kinds of clan uncles, you are all descendants of the Huo family. You are a member of the royal family, how can you watch an outsider confuse the royal blood, and even take on the role of the king of this country."

Qian Yanzhi listened to Huo Zong's complaint, and looked up at the faces of those relatives furtively. He really didn't understand why they valued blood rather than ability. Huo Zheng was obviously an excellent emperor. He was also the son of the first emperor, why did he look at Huo Zheng with such eyes when he heard someone provoke him?

It was unbearable.

At this time, an elderly prince suddenly stood up and said, "Huo Zheng, you used to be the son of the late emperor, and you were his blood. It is understandable to inherit the country, but now, you are not the son of the late emperor, that is, the son of my Huo family." People, please abdicate yourself, don't embarrass yourself."

"That's right, the blood of the royal family must not be confused. Since he is not the son of the late emperor, he is naturally not qualified to inherit the throne."

"The clan uncles also know that this matter has nothing to do with you, it is your mother's fault, but right now your background is unknown, and no one can prove it. I think King Qi is right, you should abdicate."

……

Facing the pressure from his clan relatives, Huo Zheng just nodded, with the corners of his lips slightly raised, turned around and walked up to the altar. Going forward without hesitation.

When he got to the center, he turned around and faced all the people in front of him who questioned him and even wanted him to abdicate. He waved his arms, his expression slightly trembling, purple thunder and lightning flashed in the sky, and the thunder was rolling, and those people who were startled couldn't make any sound. No.

The purple lightning strikes were very long, as if they had all struck the incense-burning copper tripod.

But Huo Zheng still faced everyone calmly, he said: "I! I am the king of a country, I think you are the elders of the clan, and I give you the opportunity to speak, but you don't cherish it very much."

"Huo Zheng! You can see that the thunder and lightning are here to punish you!" Huo Zong said angrily, pointing at Huo Zheng, "Your life experience is a mystery. In order to ensure that the country does not fall into the hands of thieves, you will definitely not You can continue to be the emperor! You still call yourself the king of a country, you want to rebel!"
