"Hey! Good son! Come here, stop kneeling."
Cao Bin sat down on the bench brought by the yamen servant, waved to the two children, and placed them on his lap.
Then he patted their heads and said with a proud smile:
"Cao Zheng, my son, is so good!"
During the period of caution, he still did not change the boy's name to "Cao Zhen".
Chen Shimei was so angry that she almost vomited blood.
Mad, this guy not only took in his son, but also changed his surname.
Chen Shimei stared at Qin Xianglian with murderous eyes, gritting her teeth secretly.
The people watching also started making noises, and their eyes towards Cao Bin became very strange.
It's so wicked to be the heir of an unparalleled person.
Moreover, Cao Bin himself was only in his twenties, and he was really happy to have a teenage son.
Seeing Chen Shimei staring at her, Qin Xianglian didn't show any timidity. She looked back at him with eyes full of hatred and said:
"The prince-in-law wants to kill his wife and children and exterminate his own heirs."
"In this case, it is natural for my son to change his surname. Uncle Cao has done a lot of good deeds."
Chen Shimei was suddenly speechless.
Now that so many witnesses have come to her hometown, and there are marriage and engagement letters, Chen Shimei can't argue at all.
The crime of stopping his wife and remarrying has become a foregone conclusion.
Bao Zheng glanced at Cao Bin speechlessly, turned to Chen Shimei and said:
"Chen Consort, Qin Xianglian is accusing you of killing your wife and son. Do you plead guilty?"
Looking at Han Qi who was kneeling down, Chen Shimei also gave up completely and shouted:
"So what if I plead guilty? I am the emperor's consort, Bao Zheng, you have no right to try me."
As soon as he finished speaking, the recorder ran down quickly, grabbed his hand, pressed it hard, and then asked him to make a mark.
When Han Qi heard this, her face darkened. She wanted to say something, but finally shook her head.
He originally had not made up his mind to report Chen Shimei, but now that he has admitted the crime, his confession is no longer important.
Cao Bin was very happy. This guy Chen Shimei wanted to die on his own. He actually thought that Bao Zheng didn't dare to kill him.
It saved him a lot of effort, but this was what he expected.
The purpose of all the previous actions was to break through Chen Shimei's defenses.
Bao Zheng slapped the crowd hard and sneered:
"I, the Kaifeng Mansion, have been given guillotines by three royal guards, capable of beheading royal relatives and sycophants. I have the right to kill first and then report. Who can't judge?"
"Not only did you stop your wife and remarry, you deceived the king, and you were so mad that you killed your wife and children. I won't spare you."
"When someone comes, the dragon head will serve him."
Hearing this, Chen Shimei was so frightened that she quickly retracted her hand, took a few steps back, and shouted in panic:
"Bao Zheng, how dare you? The Queen Mother and the Princess will not let you go!"
"I want to see the princess, I want to see the Queen Mother!"
As the saying goes, one day brings a hundred days of kindness to a couple.
Although he had some conflicts with the princess recently, he believed that the princess would come to save him.
Bao Zheng ignored him at all and ordered:
"Put Chen Shimei in the gutter!"
Two government officials immediately stepped forward and pressed Chen Shimei onto the guillotine.
"Slow down, Bao Zheng, stop it!"
At this moment, Princess Zhaoyang and Prince Duan Zhao Ji helped the Queen Mother into the lobby.
When Bao Zheng saw this, he felt something was wrong. He quickly came down from the hall and saluted to greet him.
Cao Bin cursed in his heart, thinking that the princess would not intervene and things would go smoothly.
Unexpectedly, the protagonist Bao Heizi's aura broke out and he fell out of control at the critical moment!
However, he did not dare to be rude in public, so he quickly followed Bao Zheng to greet him.
After the Queen Mother sat upright, she said:
"Bao Qing, even if Chen Shimei violated the national law, for the sake of the Ai family, please spare his life."
"this......."
Why is Bao Zheng:
"The Queen Mother, I am entrusted by Your Majesty to give you three guillotines to control law and justice."
"I don't dare to slack off in the slightest, and I don't dare to neglect the public affairs with private interests and live up to the emperor's kindness..."
The Queen Mother knew Bao Zheng's character. Although she was rejected for a while, she didn't care and continued:
"Zhaoyang is the emperor's sister. She is just pregnant now. You can't let them become orphans and widowed mothers, right?"
Her meaning is very simple. Since you, Bao Zheng, are deeply favored by the emperor, how can you ignore the feelings of the emperor's sister?
Bao Zheng was stunned for a moment and was about to hesitate, but Princess Zhaoyang did not react. When she saw Cao Bin looking at him with amazement, she suddenly turned red with embarrassment.
Who do you think you are? Is it too shameless to commit adultery with a child?
So he hurriedly defended:
"Mother, don't lie, I'm not pregnant at all!"
Bao Zheng looked strange. There was something wrong with this princess. It was completely beyond his expectation.
The Queen Mother was speechless for a moment, and Zhao Ji put his hand on her forehead.
We are saving your husband, so it would be better for you to cause trouble yourself.
Not long ago, Zhao Ji was enjoying rare treasures in his mansion, but Cai Jing suddenly sent someone to report that Chen Shimei had committed a capital crime and had been captured by Bao Zheng.
Hearing the news, he immediately became anxious.
A few days ago, I heard that Cao Bin wanted to give away all the proceeds from the construction camp, so Zhao Ji invested all the palace savings, intending to make a big profit.
If Chen Shimei dies, all his money will be wasted.
But as an idle prince, he could not directly intervene in the affairs of Kaifeng Mansion, so he had to rush to find the queen mother and princess, planning to let them come to the rescue on their own.
The Queen Mother did not want her own daughter to be widowed at a young age, so she did not dare to delay, and quickly called Princess Zhaoyang and went straight to Kaifeng Mansion.
Seeing everyone's strange looks, Princess Zhaoyang finally reacted.
Although she was extremely disappointed with Chen Shimei, she was not so heartless after all. She could save his life, and she didn't want him to die.
Realizing the seriousness of the problem, she quickly spoke out.
"What the Queen Mother said..."
Before she could finish speaking, Chen Shimei could no longer bear it.
He was frightened and angry at this time, and felt that there was no hope of survival. Before she could say anything, he started to curse:
"Bitch, adulterer and silver woman! You guys are really hooking up together!"
"Thief Cao, I will never let you go even if I'm a ghost!"
As soon as these words came out, they were like thunder, exploding above everyone's heads.
"Wow!"
Everyone was stunned.
One of the onlookers couldn't help but curse:
"Damn it, I guessed it right!"
His eyes suddenly glowed with excitement...
Seeing the Queen Mother and Zhao Ji looking at her strangely, Princess Zhaoyang suddenly became anxious and cursed with a little heart:
"Chen Shimei, you fart, how dare you slander me?"
She felt so ashamed and angry that her reputation was really ruined.
Empress Dowager Liu ignored her, smashed the dragon-headed stick, stood up and walked out.
Zhao Ji glanced at her resentfully and said angrily: "Sister Huang, you are really..."
After saying that, he hurriedly followed the Queen Mother and left.
He didn't dare to participate directly. If the emperor knew about it, he would have to wear small shoes for him.
Cao Bin quickly said: "Master Bao, I said Chen Shimei made it up, do you believe it?"
Bao Zheng glanced at him and didn't want to pay attention at all. He shouted: "Open... the guillotine!"
If he had to take care of Chen Shimei's crimes, then he didn't want to get involved with Cao Bin and the royal family.
"Thief Cao, I will never let you go even if I'm a ghost!"
Amidst Chen Shimei's struggling and shouting, only a "puff" was heard.
Heads rolled down.
Until he died, his eyes were still staring at Cao Bin, making him feel cold all over.
He couldn't help but said "poof":
"Made, you deserve to die if you still want to trick me!"
The onlookers looked at Chen Shimei's body and suddenly felt a little pity.
"Alas, Chen Shimei is also unlucky to meet a wicked guy like Cao Bin."
"Two hats in a row, worn tightly, even my son becomes someone else's. Who the hell can resist this?"
"The one who defeats the bad guy will still be the bad guy after all!"
