The return of the son-in-law

Liu Shi was brought here soon.She has been completely disliked by Li Chonghao. She is no longer the imperial concubine in the palace who had to avoid even the Queen Jiang by three points. She has been cleaning the toilet for several months with a group of old palace people. A beauty who was well maintained has become old. It is no different from the group of palace people in their 50s.

And the jade craftsman who took Saishenxian was already kneeling in the room one step ahead of Liu.

Liu Shi knelt down numbly, put her hands on the ground with her forehead, and saluted everyone in the room with a hoarse voice.

Li Shaojun didn't let her get up, and asked directly: "Mr. Liu, do you know this person?"

Mrs. Liu glanced at the jade craftsman, shook her head and said, "Return to Your Majesty, this servant does not know this person."

Hearing this, the jade craftsman yelled: "Mr. Liu, don't deny it! It's obvious that you tempted me to take Saishenxian and made me addicted, yet you still deny it now!"

Liu Shi lowered her eyes and just shook her head: "Your Majesty, this servant really doesn't know this person."

"Oh?" Li Shaojun looked at the jade craftsman, "So, you lied?"

"Your Majesty, the little one is absolutely not lying!" Jade Carpenter panicked, "If Your Majesty doesn't believe it, you can ask Liu Shi's former personal maids, they are Liu Shi's accomplices!"

Li Chonghao turned his head and asked Ah Xin: "Where is the Liu family's former grand maid?"

Ah Xin bowed and replied: "Back to Your Majesty, Xia He, the first great maid of the Liu family, was taken away by the Imperial Concubine Yu Tai. Does Your Majesty want to pass on Xia He?"

Li Shaojun nodded and said: "Send someone to pass it on. Concubine Yu Taigui should be accompanying the Emperor right now, don't bother me, just pass it on to Xia Helai."

Xia He was quickly brought here, and when she was asked whether Mrs. Liu was tempting the Jade Carpenter to drink Sai Shenxian, she began to tremble violently, her head resting on the ground: "Your Majesty, please forgive me! Your Majesty, please forgive me! It's your mother, no, no, yes Mrs. Liu instructed, everything was instructed by Mrs. Liu!"

Zuo Xingzhi frowned and asked, "Mr. Liu, what else do you want to say?"

Mrs. Liu sneered, and said: "It's just a little maid's one-sided words, and the servants still say the same thing. The servants have never done this. If your majesty and the adults insist, please show evidence. Although the servants are only one I'm just a palace man, but I can't accept other people's framing."

Liu Shi's words undoubtedly created a problem for everyone - she has been demoted to a court lady and moved out of Linzhi Palace, even if Immortal Sai is found from it now, she can deny it.

While everyone was thinking about how to get Mrs. Liu to plead guilty, Guo Zhanan noticed something was wrong—while Mrs. Liu kept denying it, she kept asking them questions, as if vaguely pulling their thinking to follow her Set up and go.If this continues, they will definitely get nothing this time.

In order to solve this situation, Guo Zhanan suddenly asked, "Mr. Liu, do you know how the common man Li Bo is doing?"

There was a flash of astonishment and worry in Liu's eyes, and then he regained his composure: "So it's Mr. Guo, does Mr. Guo like to take other people's lives to blackmail a palace man now?"

Guo Zhanan couldn't be fooled by her, and continued to ask: "How long have you not heard from the common man Li Bo in the palace?"

This time Liu Shi's cheeks twitched involuntarily again, but she simply closed her eyes and ignored it.

Guo Zhan'an continued his efforts, and asked again: "Where is the person who passed the news for you before? Why didn't he continue to pass the news to you? Do you know where the common man Li Bo is now?"

Guo Zhanan broke Liu's line of defense layer by layer with several questions in succession. Her face turned pale, and she said with trembling lips, "Jin'er, what happened to my Jin'er? What did you do to my Jin'er?" That's it!"

Guo Zhanan shook his head and said, "It's not what we did to the common man Li Bo, it's that person who did what to him. Mrs. Liu, don't you know what kind of person is the best at keeping secrets?"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Liu shook her body, fell to the side, struggled and said: "No, no, he promised me!"

Guo Zhan'an smiled and said, "Promise you? Did he promise too little?"

Liu Shi punched the ground: "Impossible, impossible! My Jin'er will be fine!"

Li Shaojun already understood the purpose of Guo Zhanan's move at this time, and then said: "Liu Shi, you know that King Liang has such a big secret, will he easily let your mother and son go? You are in the palace, he is not easy to do it, but the common man Li Bo has already been exiled from the palace, has nothing to live on, and doesn't have much money to hang around, whether he died of starvation at home or was bullied and beaten to death by gangsters, it won't be suspicious if it spreads."

After hearing this, Mrs. Liu suddenly laughed: "Your Majesty and Master Guo are really good at joking, what is King Liang, what secret? I haven't realized that I actually know the big secret of King Liang. Your Majesty, this servant doesn't know that Your Majesty and Lord Guo are together. Please tell your Majesty what to say."

Yue An let out a long sigh: "It seems that you can't refuse the benefits that King Liang has promised you. Your Majesty, why don't you remove the guard who secretly guards the common man Li Bo and see if he can live for a few days."

It was about the safety of her son, so Liu did not dare to take any risks, and asked, "What do you want to do!"

Li Shaojun smiled and said: "It's nothing, it's just to remove the guards, the life and death of the common man Li Bo has nothing to do with us from now on."

Liu's eyes were big and round, and she looked at Li Shaojun: "He is your younger brother, what are you going to do to him!"

Ah Xin who was beside Li Shaojun shouted: "Bold! The common man Li Bo has nothing to do with the royal family!"

Guo Zhan'an said at this time: "Mr. Liu, you have also been in a high position. Do you really think that King Liang will keep his promise?"

Mrs. Liu struggled for a long time, but still shook her head and said, "Your Majesty, my lords, I really don't know what you are talking about."

Zuo Xingzhi, who had been silent all this time, said, "Your Majesty, when King Liang heard the case, he made two copies after the case was closed. One of them was written to the emperor, and the other was kept in the Ministry of Criminal Justice for record. Why don't you show it to Mrs. Liu?" ?”

Logically speaking, with Liu's status, he would not be able to see these things, but of course Li Shaojun would not stop him at this time: "Did Zuo Qing bring it?"

Zuo Xingzhi nodded and said: "Today, I thought that His Majesty wanted to see it, so I went to the Ministry of Criminal Justice to get this record and kept it with me."

Saying that, Zuo Xingzhi took out a dossier from his sleeve and handed it to Mrs. Liu in person.

Mrs. Liu eagerly opened the file, read it carefully twice, and fell to the ground: "He, he clearly promised me."

After hearing this sentence, Guo Zhan'an felt that something was wrong. After going up to pick up the dossier and looking at the ten lines, he found that the words on the dossier were written by King Liang.

Mrs. Liu had always denied that King Liang had anything to do with this matter, and even more did not believe that King Liang would murder their mother and son, but now after reading this file, Mrs. Liu suddenly believed it. believe.

Could it be this handwriting?

But Mrs. Liu was in the harem, how could she recognize King Liang's handwriting?

Guo Zhanan had this doubt in his heart, but this matter was not a good time to ask Liu's reason, so he had to put it in his heart first, and let's not talk about it for now.

After reading the dossier, Mrs. Liu discovered that King Liang had decided that their mother and son should be beheaded. She no longer covered up for King Liang, and simply admitted: "Your Majesty, it is true that I lured the jade craftsman to take the Immortal Sai, and it was I who used the Immortal Sai". He threatened the jade craftsman to carve a four-clawed dragon jade pendant. But the mastermind of all this is King Liang, including Immortal Sai, who was also sent to me by King Liang.”

Seeing Liu's confession, Li Shaojun immediately asked, "Why did King Liang ask a jade craftsman to carve a four-clawed dragon jade pendant?"

"The king of Liang said that his four-clawed dragon jade pendant was missing. He didn't dare to say anything. He was afraid that the emperor would scold him if he found out. When the incident was leaked out, King Liang came up with a way to select a jade craftsman and let his maidservant use Sai Shenxian to control him, so that he had to work for King Liang. However, he did not expect that King Liang found a jade craftsman from the maidservant's natal family. 'Sixth Prince', he also wears a four-clawed dragon jade pendant." Speaking of this, Liu laughed at herself, "This servant is really stupid, and even hurt himself and Jin'er."

Zuo Xingzhi frowned and asked: "Since everything is the envoy of King Liang, why didn't you tell these things when you were interrogated?"

"Lord Zuo speaks so easily," Liu said disdainfully, "Murdering the prince is a crime of beheading. There are all witnesses and evidences at that time. Even if I tell this story, will anyone believe it? Sir Zuo, do you believe it?"

Speechless when one of the left lines.If he hadn't seen the jade craftsman go crazy with his own eyes, he really wouldn't have believed it.

Mrs. Liu continued: "Later, King Liang met with the slave girl alone, and said that if the slave girl would bear all the crimes, he would find a way to save the slave girl and her mother. Actually, the slave girl didn't really believe him at the time, but Jin'er survived. The only hope is that the servants have no choice but to bear all the charges according to what King Liang said. The servants were finally demoted to clean the toilet by the emperor, and Jin'er was also demoted as a commoner and expelled from the palace, but at least we The lives of the mother and the child were indeed saved. Unexpectedly, the last time I was blocked, I actually lost the bet."

Guo Zhanan asked: "At the beginning, King Liang was not in the southern tour team. Does the disappearance of the sixth prince have anything to do with you?"

Mrs. Liu shook her head and said, "Of course not. Even if Empress Jiang and I disagree, I wouldn't attack such a young child. King Liang didn't go to the southern tour, but it doesn't mean that his people are not in the southern tour team."

After hearing this, Guo Zhan'an and others couldn't tell whether Liu's words were true or not.

But right now is not the time to worry about this matter, Li Shaojun told Ah Xin: "Send someone to see if the emperor and Concubine Yutai are finished."

Ah Xin took the order, went out and called a fast-paced inner eunuch, gave some instructions in a low voice, the inner eunuch bowed, and then ran out quickly.

Hearing the words "Great Concubine Yutai", a murderous intent flashed in Liu's eyes: "Bitch!"

Her voice was quiet, but it was loud enough for everyone in the room to hear clearly.

Li Shaojun was in a good mood. Seeing that Mrs. Liu had misunderstood what he meant, he didn't bother to explain. He called the guards outside the door and took the jade craftsman and Mrs. Liu to a side room for custody. He, Guo Zhanan and others continued to discuss how to deal with the impending arrival in the capital An Wang.

The inner eunuch who went to inquire soon came back. Hearing that Li Chonghao and Concubine Yutai had finished their work, Li Shaojun stopped delaying and asked Yue An to go down to deal with official business, while he took Guo Zhanan and Zuo Xingzhi with him, and ordered the guards to guard them. The Liu family and the jade craftsman headed for the palace where the emperor was.

When they arrived in front of the palace where the emperor was, Li Shaojun and others did not enter in a hurry. Instead, an inner eunuch who had been following Ah Xin went in with his head down and turned around, then came back and said, "Your Majesty, the smell inside seems to be incomplete. Dissipate, would your majesty invite the emperor to sit in the garden pavilion?"

"It's okay, just say that I have something important to discuss with the emperor, please move to the side hall."

"Yes."

After listening to the conversation between Li Shaojun and the eunuch, Liu Shi who was standing behind was distorted.

Once upon a time, this love belonged to her, but now it is taken away by that bitch, Concubine Yutai!

After entering the side hall, Mrs. Liu did not dare to look up, but just lowered her head and followed the guards and inner eunuchs to salute.

"The emperor is here now, what's the matter?"

Li Chonghao's old voice reached Liu Shi's ears, arousing Liu Shi's curiosity.You know, Li Chonghao attaches great importance to maintenance on weekdays, and more than a dozen imperial doctors take turns to diagnose his pulse every day, and the medicinal food in the imperial dining room is not missing every day. Compared with his peers, Li Chonghao is much younger.

But it's only been a few short months, and Li Chonghao actually seems to be more than 20 years old. Could it be that Concubine Yutai has been pestering him for it?

It's really shameless!

The more Liu thought about it, the angrier she became, and she wished she could immediately pinch Concubine Yutai to relieve her hatred.

While Mrs. Liu was dreaming, Li Shaojun had already explained what happened clearly, and said: "Father, my son has brought Liu and the jade craftsman. If you have any questions, just ask them two." .”

Li Chonghao couldn't see any joy or anger on his face: "According to what you mean, Yu'er in the palace is a fake now?"

Li Shaojun replied cautiously: "Father, it is not according to my opinion. The facts are in front of you. Liang Wang asked Liu to threaten the jade craftsman, carved a four-clawed dragon jade pendant for him, and found a jade pendant from Liu's mansion with a jade pendant. How can the young man with the four-clawed dragon jade pendant be unsuspecting?"

"Bold!" Li Chonghao made a sudden attack, grabbed the teacup on the table and threw it at Li Shaojun's head.

His move was really sudden. Guo Zhan'an and others wanted to stop him, but they couldn't because they were far away.Fortunately, Ah Xin, who was dedicated to protecting him, was by Li Shaojun's side. Seeing this, he hurried forward and blocked Li Shaojun behind him.

The teacup fell on Ah Xin's head, and a long gash was cut on his forehead, and blood kept gushing out from the wound, which was really scary.Fortunately, the tea in the teacup was not so hot, otherwise Ah Xin would be torn to pieces.

Li Shaojun supported Ah Xin, Guo Zhan'an and others also reacted at this time, and quickly stepped forward to help Ah Xin from Li Shaojun, took out a handkerchief to seal the wound for Ah Xin, and asked the guards to call for the imperial physician.

Li Shaojun was startled and angry: "Why is the father so angry? The 'sixth younger brother' that King Liang found is indeed a fake. Even if the father doesn't trust me, the testimony of the Liu family and the jade craftsman are still there."

But Li Chonghao didn't admit it: "It's just two people's one-sided words. Yu'er has a four-clawed dragon jade pendant, and she has confessed to me with blood, why not?"

"Because the real 'sixth brother' has been killed by someone sent by King Liang!" "Li Shaojun couldn't bear it anymore, and yelled out the truth.

Li Chonghao's eyes widened: "What did you say?"

Seeing that the truth had been exposed, Li Shaojun decided not to hide it any more, and told the whole story: "After Yu'er disappeared, he was picked up by passers-by and kept in the folks. Later, Guo Qing became the county magistrate of Tonghua County. After returning to the capital, Guo Qing discovered the four-clawed dragon jade pendant and the note signed by his father on Yuer's body. After returning to the capital, he secretly told me. What the father said about blood recognition , I and Yuer also tried it. He is my younger brother!"

After Li Chonghao heard this, he didn't feel sad at all, but became more and more angry: "I think you are out of your mind, to say such nonsense! Can you still be a good emperor like this, and take care of the country left by your ancestors?" ? You don’t have to go to court these days, reflect on yourself, and wait for when you have figured it out, and when will you talk about it.”

Guo Zhan'an and the others felt a chill in their hearts when they heard this—what Li Chonghao said was to completely empty out Li Shaojun!

If this continues, I'm afraid that Li Chonghao will take the opportunity to seize Li Shaojun's power, and even abolish the emperor Li Shaojun!

There are no eggs under the overturned nest. Once Li Shaojun loses power, Guo Zhan'an and others will not be able to escape.

At this time, Guo Zhan'an could no longer hide it, so he had no choice but to come out and say: "Qizou the emperor and your majesty, the sixth prince was ambushed by killers on the way, but fortunately, he was blessed by the dragon spirit, and he returned to the capital safely yesterday."

"What?" Li Chonghao and Li Shaojun were shocked.

Not only was Li Shaojun shocked, but he was also overjoyed, and quickly ordered: "Quickly send Huo Yu into the palace!"
