Although everyone in the hall didn't know what Xia Zhihe was thinking, they could more or less guess what was going on. They looked at him with all kinds of looks, from those who watched the excitement to those who looked down upon him with disdain.
The matter has reached this point, and it is already like a farce in this main hall. This is a place where important matters of the court are discussed, but now they are arguing about trivial family matters.
By this time, all the forces, including the emperor, had realized that there was no way they could take advantage of Prince An today.
"That's enough, what's it like to make such a fuss!" The emperor suddenly said, frowning obviously displeased, "Return all the property of the Sun family to Princess An, and let's do this. We are all decent people. , how unbecoming it will be if you continue to make such a fuss, it will be an embarrassment to me!"
The emperor suddenly made a decision and wanted to put an end to this matter. His original intention was to get rid of the matter quickly, lest Prince An would hold on to the poisoning matter and make them all passive and continue to cause trouble. , except for being more embarrassing, there will be no better results.
But the emperor didn't know how heartbroken Xia Zhihe was at this moment. The Sun family's property was more than just what he said was "just a little bit"! That's quite a lot for him!
If he hadn't used the Sun family's property to purchase some properties of his own over the years, then what Prince An had taken away would have been his entire property!
But even so, it still hurt him greatly, because he had no business talent. After so many years, not only the operation of the Sun family's properties was mediocre, but even the properties he later purchased were not outstanding. Because of his eyesight, most of what he squandered was the income from the Sun family's industry.
Now that he wants to hand over all the Sun family's property, it is simply cutting into his heart!
He is just an abandoned son who will be sacrificed sooner or later! He even wanted to take away most of his family fortune. It was like losing his wife and losing his troops. It was a huge loss!
Once this good-for-nothing daughter dies, won't these properties become Prince An's?
Xia Zhihe suddenly thought of this and couldn't help but wonder about Prince An's purpose of insisting on taking back the Sun family's property. Could it be that Prince An actually wanted those things himself, so he was asking for them in the name of Princess An?
It's just that Xia Zhihe has never thought about whether the things he cares about can really catch the eyes of Prince An. In his eyes, they are treasures, but in the eyes of others, they may not be anything at all.
He never thought that those things that did not belong to him belonged to Xia Luotong, and he was the one who took other people's property.
The emperor had already spoken. Even though Xia Zhihe was so heartbroken that he could hardly breathe, he couldn't say anything more. After all, Mr. Li Ge on the side also acquiesced to the decision and winked at him, telling him to accept it and not mention it again.
However, Xia Zhihe's group planned to give up, but Prince An did not intend to let them go so easily.
They were the ones who started the matter. Did they see that they were seeking benefits and wanted to just pat their butts and leave like this after provoking themselves? Does Wu Zechen look like such an easy person to bully?
If he let them off so easily today, wouldn't everyone dare to provoke him in the future?
"The princess's dowry has been decided, and I have no objection, but what about the princess being poisoned? Doesn't Mrs. Xia, the matron, have no guilt at all? Then if anything happens to the children of each family, the matron of the family will be responsible. Wouldn't it be possible to get away with just saying, 'It's all the servant's fault, it's none of my business'?" Wu Zechen said coldly, holding on to the matter of poisoning.
Unexpectedly, Prince An would insist on this matter, but this matter was indeed Li's fault, and it was hard for anyone to say anything.
At this time, the emperor just wanted to get rid of the matter quickly and not to dwell on it any longer: "It is too much to say that the guilt is too much, but the responsibility for laxity and oversight is there. Let the Li family compensate Princess An for what she has suffered during this period. It’s my sin, and you will discuss how to compensate for it after you go to court.”
After the emperor said this, no matter how dark the faces of Xia Zhihe and Li Ge were, they immediately wanted to announce their resignation.
He knew whose handiwork the cause of this incident was, and to put it bluntly, it was his acquiescence. What's more, the marriage was his will in the first place. How could he not know the twists and turns here?
This time, he originally wanted to go with the flow, but unexpectedly, something like this happened in Baihua Valley, and so many things happened later. Since this matter was no longer possible, he naturally didn't want to waste any more time, otherwise he wouldn't be able to do anything with his mother. Easy to explain.
However, Prince An was obviously not satisfied with this. Before the emperor spoke again, he spoke first: "The princess's matter is over, what about the minister's matter? He spread rumors and slandered the king for poisoning his wife. Now it is even more troublesome. If the whole city knows about it, don’t we need to take responsibility? What does this bring to the royal family’s face?”
As soon as Wu Zechen said these words, Xia Zhihe and others' expressions became darker. However, he didn't care and showed his royal dignity. No matter whether the emperor was happy or not, he couldn't ignore this matter, so the next step was his goal.
However, it was obviously not suitable for Xia Luotong to be present at this time. He didn't care about the emperor's Shen Rushui expression, which was full of displeasure. He turned his head and said to Xia Luotong with a gentle expression on his face: "You are waiting outside the palace now. My king, don’t run around.”
Xia Luotong also knew that she was not suitable to stay, not to mention that her purpose had been achieved and it would be useless to stay longer, so she nodded obediently and responded in a soft voice: "Okay, I will wait for the prince outside."
Having said that, after receiving the emperor's permission, Xia Luotong turned around and walked out of the palace. Feeling the various looks behind her, she chuckled in her heart but was not afraid at all.
She and the cold-faced prince were already collaborating, so it was not surprising that he had his own purpose, but she even took it for granted.
You cooperate with him and achieve your own goals, and he uses himself to achieve what he wants. This is very reasonable and is what cooperation should be like.
Standing quietly outside the main hall, she quietly recalled what had just happened.
As she said two days ago, she does not plan to, nor does she think she can bring down the Xia family and the Li family at once, so her primary purpose this time is to plant a seed in the hearts of everyone in the capital. , revealed a corner of the Xia family's hypocrisy, and was also the beginning of the Xia family's ruin.
With this stain, everything in the future will be much easier to operate.
In addition, it is to get back everything that was originally owned by his biological mother, the Sun family. Xia Zhihe relied on the Sun family to enter Beijing and have everything he has now, but he was so cruel that he killed the Sun family and the entire Sun family, and even occupied the Sun family. family property.
