The sky lightened slightly, and a new day came, but Wu Yue's life was completely bleak.

Tears were all dried up, her voice was hoarse, and the lost life had gone away before it stopped. Wu Yue hugged the child tightly in her arms, propped up her frail body to get out of bed, and staggered out of the building. A courtyard more infiltrating than a haunted house.

Prime Minister Zuo Wei was washing his mouth and cleansing his face in the mansion, when he heard a servant outside the door announce, "My lord, there is a girl in front of the mansion who calls herself Wu Yue, begging to see her, and begging him to see her no matter what."

Zuo Wei, who was wiping his hands, was taken aback, opened the door, "Take her to the middle hall."

In the palace, Wan Ming accompanied Emperor Yuan to dinner early in the morning, and the harmonious atmosphere once made Emperor Yuan think that Wan Ming had changed his mind and would follow him back to the court, but unexpectedly this was not the case.Not long ago, Wan Ming didn't even want to take a second look at the letter that Wan Ming found out. The craftsman who was good at carving was appointed by the Yuan Emperor himself and summoned to the palace to verify the authenticity of the seal on the letter.

The craftsman raised his head and put away his tools, and he knew the result.

Wan Ming had a plan in mind, but Emperor Yuan was dubious, "Master, what's the result?"

"Returning to the emperor, neither the fineness nor the degree of smudge of the ink pad can compare with the materials used by the royal family. The grass people are sure that this is a forgery."

Exactly what Wanming said, Emperor Yuan waved his hand to make the craftsman back down, feeling uneasy in his chest, "What's going on with this Ren Baishui?!"

"Father, this can always prove that the son-in-law is innocent, and the collusion in the rebellion is completely unfounded!"

"Although she did not collude with foreign enemies, it is a fact that she rebelled."

Wan Ming was not in a hurry to argue with Emperor Yuan about Xiang Xun's matter, and to expose the fraudulent letter, Wan Ming had other intentions, "Father, you don't need to specify, you must also know that the seal of the prince of Silicon Kingdom stamped on the letter If it is true, but the son-in-law's seal is fake, and this matter was not done by the son-in-law, then Ren Baishui who submitted this letter is extremely suspicious. As a minister trusted by the emperor, he not only has close contacts with the eldest prince of Silicon Kingdom, but even forged it. Isn't it terrible that the evidence puts the blame on others?"

Even if Wanming wanted to defend Wanming's words, it would be difficult to find a reason to justify them, not to mention that Emperor Yuan had doubts about Ren Baishui in his heart.If the facts are true, Ren Baishui's crime of deceiving the emperor and colluding with outsiders will be aggravated.It is far-fetched to say that Ren Baishui obtained this letter without knowing it and submitted it to Emperor Yuan. In the end, Ren Baishui still couldn't get rid of the relationship.

"Father, I know that you are thirsty for talents." Wan Ming walked to Emperor Yuan, and handed the teacup on the table to Emperor Yuan, "I also recognize Ren Baishui's literary talent, but when it comes to character, Ren Baishui may It is not what the father sees. The son-in-law really wants to avenge the son-in-law, but the father also said that the Yuanjing confrontation again has become a fact, and the more important thing is to let the father understand Ren Baishui better, so as not to develop Woe."

Emperor Yuan gently blew away the tea leaves, took a sip of the hot tea, and before he could say anything, Prime Minister Zuo Wei came to see him outside the door.

"Why did the prime minister come here today?"

"My Majesty, according to Wu Yue, the daughter of General Wu Kai in the former Jing Dynasty, the biological father of the fetus in her belly is Ren Baishui, Ren adults, not the son-in-law Xiang Xun. The previous rumors are all groundless, and the son-in-law is innocent. Not only that , Mr. Ren also hid Miss Wu Yue, so that the investigation could not be carried out smoothly, and he ignored Wu Yue's mother and child, which caused Wu Yue's dystocia and gave birth to a dead baby. His deeds are terrible and inhumane. I implore the emperor to uphold justice for Wu Yue's mother and son."

After hearing the news of Wu Yue again after such a long time, Wan Ming was really surprised when Prime Minister Zuo Wei met Emperor Yuan, "Master Prime Minister, where is Wu Yue now?"

Zuo Wei looked solemn, and cupped his hands, "Her Royal Highness, Miss Wu Yue was already dying when she came to Weichen's mansion this morning. After telling all the facts, she couldn't hold on any longer and passed away."

The result that she had never thought of made Wan Ming speechless and just looked at Emperor Yuan.Perhaps because of sympathy, Zuo Wei said something more to Emperor Yuan, "Your Majesty, when a person is about to die, his words are good. It is not an example of an official appointed by the imperial court."

Emperor Yuan looked at Wan Ming, then at Zuo Wei, and issued an order, "Decide my order, send Shang Shu Ren Baishui to the prison, and obey orders to await trial."

Wanming had expected the outcome, but couldn't let go of what happened to Wu Yue.Walking out of the imperial study, Wanming called Zuo Wei, "Prime Minister, can you hand over Wu Yue to the palace? Fusheng, an old slave in the former dynasty of Jing Kingdom, who took care of his son-in-law since he was a child, must be familiar with General Wu's family and his cemetery." Where, this palace wants to bury their family together, and please ask the prime minister to do it."

"Your Highness, the princess, is serious. Your Highness is kind-hearted, and I am willing to serve you."

"Then there is Mr. Lao."

After Zuo Wei saluted and walked away, Wan Ming raised her head and looked at the sky. The sudden bad news made Wan Ming's heart heavy. Thinking of Xiang Xun, whom she had not seen for many days, she couldn't help sighing, "When will this dispute end?"

In Ren's mansion, Ren Baishui's wishful thinking became a little complicated because of a fish that slipped through the net, and even had an ominous premonition.

"Where can she go alone as a woman who just gave birth?! How do you take care of it?! A dozen people don't even know she's gone?"

Ren Baishui was furious, and those who were incompetent only dared to kneel and answer, "My lord, yesterday was a whole night of turmoil, and the brothers are all tired. Besides, it is a blood-stained room. I, we didn't keep too close." ,who knows……"

Ren Baishui kicked down the subordinate who was full of excuses, "Stop talking nonsense, and find it for me quickly! If you can't find it within today, please come and see me!"

"Knock...Knock..."

The hasty knock on the door temporarily saved the people under Ren Baishui's fist, but it brought disaster to Ren Baishui.

"My lord, my lord, it's not good, come out and have a look."

Ren Baishui was puzzled, opened the door and saw that the courtyard outside was full of officers and soldiers, a posture that Ren Baishui was no stranger to.

Emperor Yuan made an order, Wan Ming supervised, and the officers and soldiers soon appeared in Ren's mansion, enumerating the crimes of deceiving the emperor and collaborating with the enemy. As a result, they were sent directly to prison. Ren Baishui was like being poured thoroughly by a pot of cold water in the cold winter months.

"This is framing! I want to meet the Holy Majesty, and I have something important to say!" The king's fate is difficult, and when Ren Baishui resisted, the officers and soldiers immediately clamped him down. Ren Baishui still shouted for grievances, "It's Xingzheng! I was framed by Xingzheng , he stole the seal, I want to explain to the emperor that Xiang Xun's eyeliner is still by the emperor's side! Catch Xingzheng!"

In vain, dragging and dragging, Ren Baishui was hung up on a chain, and he could no longer be left alone.Xing Zheng was in Ren's mansion, watching all this in the dark, watching Ren Baishui being taken away.

Xing Zheng clenched his fists, "Brother, I promised you, I did it."

In fact, something was wrong with Xingzheng. Hong Shichang noticed something after Wu Yue fell into Ren Baishui's hands inexplicably. Hong Shichang was not as careless as he appeared on the surface. Because of this, Xing Zheng, who sneaked into the main camp to steal the consort's seal, was caught.

That night, as brothers of more than ten years, Xing Zheng and Hong Shichang fought for the first time. However, Xing Zheng still couldn't take the seal from Hong Shichang's hand. When he was exhausted, Hong Shichang just asked Xing Zheng one sentence after another. .

"Ah Zheng, is it worth it? You know what kind of person Ren Baishui is, so you give up your conscience and work for him? All he does is to satisfy his own goals, not for the people and the court. He is here After that, how many things did you do for Jingdi? Can you name even one thing that benefited the common people? On the contrary, what is Brother Xiang doing? Marrying a princess, protecting the hometown, curing floods, farming the land, going to the battlefield, and chasing the enemy …A good bird chooses a tree to live in, Ah Zheng, if your ambition is only to pursue fame and fortune, what is the difference between you and those high officials we once hated?"

On the night of the execution, he kept silent and did not take away the son-in-law's seal as Ren Baishui said.On the second day, Xing Zheng was safe and sound, and on the third day, it was still as calm as if nothing had happened.On the night of the third day, Xing Zheng, who had figured it out, swore to reform in front of Hong Shichang, and because of Hong Shichang's confession during this period, Xiang Xun Wanming knew this fact, not only did not blame Hong Shichang, but also accepted Xing Zheng generously.And since then, Xing Zheng has changed his position, breaking away from his momentary vanity.

But the discovery of the bamboo house and the capture of Xiang's mother as a hostage are definitely the biggest accident and variable.

Whether sitting or standing, Xiang Xun has locked himself in the study for a day, and it's not that he has nothing to do, it's really a dilemma.

Mingning knocked on the door and went in, Xiang Xun was always looking forward to a good news, but this time, Mingning was really helpless.

"It's just that the intentions are sinister. Since he plans to use my mother to bind me, he will never let us crack the poison easily. Master, you don't have to blame yourself." Xiang Xun put his eyes on the map, "Just do as he said Well, this can be exchanged for the antidote, so as not to make the empress suffer."

"Xun'er, what does Shanshi want this time?"

"Yunzhou."

As soon as Xiang Xun finished speaking, Ming Ning was startled. It was very important for Xiang Xun to capture Yunzhou, but he had to give it up. If it was not a last resort, Xiang Xun would never do this.

"Only on the condition of increasing troops, after the successful capture of Yunzhou, Yunzhou City will be garrisoned by silicon troops, and then go out of the tiger's den and enter the wolf's den. Our soldiers go through life and death, and finally make wedding dresses for others. I am really not reconciled." Xiang Xun clenched his fists on the table and lowered his head, "Our army is well prepared. Even without their help, we are sure to occupy Yunzhou. Shan Shi is even more anxious to let the army back because he is about to return home because he has framed the prince of Silicon Kingdom. Settling in Jingdi, his ambition is self-evident, trying to reap the benefits of the fisherman. I just don’t want to be able to think of a way to save my mother, and can’t think of a way not to be threatened by Shanshi!”

"boom!!"

Xiang Xun's fist hit the table heavily, and he was under too much pressure, as well as his mother's life, no one could easily deal with it.

Xiangmu held the soup cup, there was no more sound in the study, she turned around and left without a sound.

"Empress Dowager, it's time to take the decoction."

In the room, Mother Xiang looked at the black concoction that she had been drinking for the past few days, and couldn't help asking the maid, "What kind of medicine is this?"

"Back to the Empress Dowager, the servants don't know, His Highness only ordered to deliver it to the Empress Dowager on time."

"Put the medicine first, you can go down."

"This... Your Highness said that you have to watch your empress take it with your own eyes before..."

"Is this palace still going to lie to His Highness?!" Xiangmu's tone became even more serious, and the little maid immediately dared not speak, "The prince has been involved in state affairs recently, you can't wait to bother him, this palace will explain to the prince, Back off."

"Yes, slaves obey."

Mother Xiang watched the maid close the door and leave, raised her hands to take the soup and smelled it, thinking about what she had just heard.
