The emperor gritted his teeth and said, if he doesn't perform well, how will the ministers treat him in the future? Don’t you think he can’t even suppress the Queen Mother?
Originally, when Mr. Xu was called out by the Empress Dowager in public, he felt frightened and uneasy, fearing that the Empress Dowager would point the finger at him. But fortunately, the Emperor spoke up, obviously intending to protect him, which made him feel a little relieved.
But the Queen Mother obviously didn't intend to let him go just like that: "Han Xin? Is he worthy of someone like him who is making trouble and slandering the royal relatives?"
As soon as the Queen Mother said this, Master Xu and the Emperor's expressions became even more ugly.
"Princess An has already explained it just now, and these things are well documented. Since they were the ones who assassinated Princess An first, they deserve what they deserve!"
The Queen Mother had a cold face and said in a deep voice: "If you want to tell the Ai family, the princess is already tolerant of them. They are all small punishments and big punishments, and they have not caused much real harm to them at all!"
"Compared with the malice they have towards the princess, the things they have done show how tolerant Princess An is!"
"Those so-called noble ladies, in the eyes of the Ai family, are just a bunch of rotten and black-hearted flowers! Look at the things they did! Which one of them was not to force Princess An to death?"
"Since Mr. Xu has thoroughly investigated this matter, will he not know the truth? Since he knows, he still does such a thing today, what is it if it is not slander?"
The Queen Mother's eyes gradually turned cold when she looked at Mr. Xu: "Not to mention that Princess An is a member of my royal family, even a commoner can't help you slandering and harming others! How can you hold such an important position as the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue? ?! This is what really chills the hearts of people all over the world!"
As soon as the Queen Mother finished speaking, everyone was shocked!
Is it possible that the Queen Mother is going to take action against Mr. Xu? !
The emperor's heart was also tense, and he frowned and said hurriedly: "The Queen Mother's words are serious. From my point of view, Mr. Xu is just anxious to do things for the people, and then I think there is something wrong in his impatience."
"The truth has been revealed now, and Princess An is not injured at all. Since it was a misunderstanding, Master Xu should apologize to Princess An, and let this matter be over."
After that, he didn't ask the Queen Mother at all, and directly urged: "Master Xu! What are you waiting for? Why don't you apologize to Princess An quickly!?"
There was a bit of gnashing of teeth in the emperor's words. It was obvious that he was extremely angry and unwilling to give up, but he could not do anything about the current situation.
The fact that Princess An is the deputy master of Baihua Valley has been personally confirmed by Mu Jinyu, the young master of Baihua Valley, and it has become impossible for them to take action.
It has to be said that Baihua Valley is indeed an excellent sign. They are also people who use poison. Although disciples of Baihua Valley Poison Technique are also scary, they will not make people suspicious.
The reason is still the reputation and style of Baihua Valley over the years, as well as its restraint and punishment of the disciples in the valley.
It is precisely because of this that the emperor and others did not hesitate to question and deny Luo Tong's identity when he revealed his identity as the deputy valley master.
After receiving the emperor's look, Mr. Xu also knew that what happened today was impossible. When he noticed the cold gaze of the queen mother, he felt uneasy. Knowing that the emperor was trying to protect himself, he quickly turned to Luo Tong.
"Princess An, I'm really sorry. I didn't investigate clearly in advance and caused you trouble."
Mr. Xu lowered his head slightly, clasped his fists perfunctorily, and even his tone was still condescending.
But even like this, he felt humiliated and felt that it was a shameful act to apologize to Princess An in public.
How could the Queen Mother not see the little thoughts of the Emperor and Mr. Xu? She doesn't plan to let Master Xu go so easily! Otherwise, wouldn't anyone be able to cause trouble for Luo Tong in the future? !
But before the Queen Mother could speak, Luo Tong spoke up first.
"Master Xu, please don't apologize to me. I can't bear your condescension. If you don't know, you think I have wronged you!"
Luo Tong's sarcasm made Mr. Xu change his face on the spot. He said angrily: "Princess An! What do you mean? I have already apologized to you in public, what else do you want? Don't push yourself too far!"
"Am I trying to push the envelope? Ha!" Luo Tong sneered and suddenly said, "In my opinion, it's Mr. Xu who's pushing the envelope!"
"Ever since he took the position of Minister of Household Affairs, Mr. Xu has really pushed his limits! He almost moved the entire treasury to his own Xu Mansion!"
"The people you really should apologize to are the people of Zhou!"
"You are spitting blood!" Mr. Xu was furious, his face instantly turned red, as if he was angry.
But there was an uneasiness rising in my heart...
"Whether it's blood-stained or not, you'll know soon. As for now..."
Luo Tong paused, and suddenly looked directly at Mr. Xu with a cold expression: "Let's first talk about how Prince Lao An died!"
As soon as these words came out, the sound of inhalation suddenly sounded in the hall!
How did Prince Lao An die? !
The initial determination was that he died of illness, but Princess An raised the matter again at this time and under such circumstances, which shows that the matter must not be that simple!
It's just that Prince Lao An has passed away for eighteen years. Is there really any clues that can be dug out?
However, compared to the doubts and curiosity of those who were not involved, those who were really involved were nervous and completely uneasy.
In particular, Luo Tong has exposed her identity as the deputy owner of Baihua Valley. The most important thing is that she is the successor of the Baihua Valley Poison Technique lineage!
Even though the death of Poison Immortal Kong Yimeng was not reported, Luo Tong took over the position of Deputy Valley Master. What does this mean?
This shows that Luo Tong's poison skills are definitely not inferior to the Poison Immortal Kong Yimeng!
The extremely high level of poisonous skills is what really makes those people uneasy...
When Luo Tong mentioned the death of Prince Lao An, many people looked ugly, including the emperor, queen, and Master Xu...
But what was different from them was that there was one person who stood up on the spot with a shocked and angry face, it was the Queen Mother!
"Tong'er, what do you mean by this! Is there something fishy about the death of the youngest?!"
The Queen Mother asked urgently, even her breathing became rapid!
At that time, she couldn't believe how her youngest son, who had always been in good health, suddenly fell ill and died in a hurry not long afterward. !
If it were said that her youngest son died on the battlefield, or that he died of a recurrence of an old injury, then she would be more accepting of it, but she could not accept that her youngest son died of illness!
Until now, Luo Tong mentioned the death of Prince Lao An again in front of all the civil and military officials!
