The Lady's Code for Raising Her Husband

Dong Yi knew what was going on and immediately withdrew. Chunxiao also went out soon after.

Eunuch Wei then lowered his voice and said, "This matter has to start when General Gu Heng was falsely accused of collaborating with the enemy."

Gu Heng was falsely accused of collaborating with the enemy? King Pingnan was stunned: "Hasn't that matter been investigated clearly? The person who collaborated with the enemy is actually the Marquis of Yichun."

"No, no, that's what happened originally, but today the Marquis of Yingchuan told the Emperor that the Marquis of Yichun and the King of Suiyuan of Xia are actually tool men, and the real mastermind behind the scenes is King Heng. King Heng's original plan was to first King Suiyuan attacked Tianma Pass, and King Heng asked the emperor for troops to fight. When King Heng led the troops to Tianma Pass, King Suiyuan immediately led his army to retreat, allowing King Heng to make a great contribution and win the emperor's trust, which would lay a solid foundation for the future. Pave the way for ascending to the throne of prince.”

"The Marquis of Yingchuan was aware of this at the time, and he first asked the emperor to fight at Tianma Pass, which caused the emperor to reject King Heng's request to fight and not let him succeed."

Ye Yuxiao and Prince Nan Ping were shocked to hear Mr. Wei's ordinary words. Isn’t King Heng collaborating with the enemy? Once this charge is confirmed, even if he has great achievements in regaining the lost territory of the previous dynasty, he will definitely not be able to save his head.

"The Marquis of Yingchuan had no evidence before, does he have evidence now?" King Pingnan asked impatiently.

Eunuch Wei nodded: "The Marquis of Yingchuan said that evidence was brought back from the lost territory of the previous dynasty, and there are both witnesses and physical evidence. Therefore, the matter is of great importance, and the emperor will convene the ministers to discuss it overnight, so you should go home first. , otherwise when the palace door is locked, you won’t be able to get out.”

Eunuch Wei talked about the evidence of King Heng's collaboration with the enemy, as if he had seen King Heng's misfortune, and there was a sense of gloating in his words.

So it turned out that King Pingnan suddenly realized that if King Heng could really be convicted of collaborating with the enemy, then why should he worry about the emperor's marriage? By then his head would be on the ground, and the marriage would naturally be annulled.

"Let's go home!" King Pingnan said easily. He trusted Ouyang Sheng. Ouyang Sheng said that there was evidence that King Heng was collaborating with the enemy, so this evidence must be solid and could kill him to the death. Thinking about it now, no wonder King Heng did not hesitate to attack King Lu in order to "turn" Ouyang Sheng into Yao Ying. It turns out that as long as Ouyang Sheng regains his identity, he will only die.

Ye Yuxiao's nervous mood was relieved a lot, but she was worried about Zhang Chengxuan's health, so she asked Eunuch Wei: "Can you please ask the emperor to allow me to stay in the palace overnight in case King Lu is unwell?"

Eunuch Wei waved his hand and said, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid you don't have the time or the mood to worry about such a trivial matter right now. Why don't you ask the Dong Yuan Envoy to stay on duty? If anything happens, I'll go and invite you immediately."

That's okay. Zhang Chengxuan is fine anyway. At most, he's a little weak and Dong Yi can handle it. Ye Yuxiao accepted Eunuch Wei's proposal and went out of the palace with King Pingnan.

After leaving the palace, she originally wanted to follow King Pingnan back to Prince Pingnan's Mansion and tell the elders about what happened today, but King Pingnan thought that she had just had a major surgery today, and he had done something for Ouyang Sheng and herself. Worrying about the matter, it took too much physical and mental energy, so he asked her to go back to Mrs. Ning Hui's house to have a good rest. As for what happened today, he could just tell her family.

Ye Yuxiao was indeed tired, so he didn't insist, left King Pingnan, and went back to Mrs. Ning Hui's house.

Like Ping Nan Wang, she trusted Ouyang Sheng very much and knew that he would not fight an uncertain battle. However, King Heng's rank is much higher now than before, and he is no longer just violent and angry. This can be seen from the fact that he insists that Ouyang Sheng is Yao Ying. Therefore, she could not completely relax before the emperor made the final decision.

If she didn't push King Heng to the end this time, she would still have to marry him. She had been waiting for Ouyang Sheng for so long, and she couldn't accept it if she got this result.

Ye Yuxiao was worried, tossing and turning, and didn't fall asleep all night.

The next morning, Gu Qingyan came to pick her up and said that Zhang Chengxuan had come out of the palace.

Ye Yuxiao quickly packed up and followed her to Prince Lu's Mansion.

Zhang Chengxuan spent the whole night in the palace with his injuries. He looked very tired. He could hardly lift the arm that had been operated on.

Ye Yuxiao quickly changed the medicine for him, and asked the maid to boil a bowl of decoction to nourish his energy and spirit, and gave it to him to drink.

Zhang Chengxuan told them that the emperor and Ouyang Sheng were still arguing about King Heng's collaboration with the enemy. He came back first because he was weak and couldn't hold on any longer.

She knew that it would not be easy to convict King Heng. Ye Yuxiao's heart, which had been worried all night, suddenly became even higher.

The three of them were all very nervous. No one spoke for a while, and they waited silently.

When it got dark and the sun set, Ouyang Sheng finally came out of the palace.

He walked into the house with long strides and said with a smile: "I knew that you were all in Prince Lu's Mansion, so I didn't even go back home and came directly from the palace."

He is smiling! The three of them breathed a sigh of relief.

"Has King Heng been convicted?" Ye Yuxiao asked hurriedly.

Ouyang Sheng nodded: "The evidence is conclusive that King Heng collaborated with the enemy. The emperor demoted him to a commoner on the spot. In order to prove that the queen was not involved in this matter, he committed suicide in front of the emperor."

In front of the emperor, he committed suicide and his blood spattered the imperial study? Did he dig out his heart alive? ? Ye Yuxiao and the other three took a deep breath. But this seems like something King Heng would be able to do.

"Then was the Queen involved in this matter?" Ye Yuxiao asked.

"I don't know whether the queen was involved in this matter, but the emperor doesn't believe it anyway." Ouyang Sheng said, "The emperor has already drafted an edict to abolish the queen and put the queen in the cold palace. Not only that, the emperor also decreed to take away Pei To seize the title of Duke of the country, confiscate the family and exterminate the clan."

Ye Yuxiao suddenly remembered that the emperor had originally suspected that the third son of Pei Guo Gongfu was colluding with the enemy country. Now that King Heng is colluding with the enemy, he will naturally not let Pei Guo Gongfu go.

"Master Hou, where did you find the evidence?" Gu Qingyan asked curiously.

Ouyang Sheng replied: "One of the prisoners of war this time was King Suiyuan of Xia Kingdom. He personally identified King Heng and handed over the letters between King Heng and him. The emperor could not help but not believe it. King Heng had already noticed that our general Sui King Yuan hid himself, and then he attacked King Lu and pretended that I was Yao Ying."

So that was the case. Gu Qingyan sorted out the cause and effect and asked the question she was most concerned about: "King Heng is dead, so my cousin doesn't need to marry him anymore, right?"

How can you get married if you are already dead? Ouyang Sheng nodded and said, "The emperor said that the marriage decree was drawn up by the queen in his name, so naturally it does not count."

The emperor is quite good at finding someone to take the blame. The queen is already finished anyway, so it doesn't matter if she is charged with another crime.

Gu Qingyan felt relieved and immediately got up, ready to go home and tell everyone the good news.

At this time, Ye Yuxiao suddenly patted the coffee table: "You have been talking about this for a long time, can you get to the point quickly?"

Aren't they talking about the topic? Aren't these the real topics? Ouyang Sheng and others were all stunned.
