Bai Yushi did not realize the seriousness of the matter at this moment.
Even when he saw someone coming, he didn't panic at all. He kowtowed with an aggrieved look on his face and said, "Emperor, I am wronged. You make the decision for me!"
"Are you sure you don't know the people in the hall?"
Yushi Bai refused: "Wei Chen only recognizes Master Wu Qi, but not the woman."
He had raised Yaoniang for many years and once persuaded her to go out for a walk, but Yaoniang said that she did not like contact with strangers, so she had never left the house for more than ten years.
Therefore, he was sure that no one knew Yao Niang, and no one could authenticate her.
Unexpectedly, Yao Niang actually took a step forward and said, "My lord is so heartless. Do you want to draw a clear line with me now?"
Bai Yushi's body froze, never expecting that Yao Niang would say such a thing.
He looked at Yao Niang in disbelief, how could she be like this? She had clearly promised before that even if someone exposed her, she would pretend not to know her.
Yao Niang took a step forward and knelt down and said: "Master, Yao Niang has confessed everything, just admit it!"
Bai Yushi pushed her away angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about, bitch?"
Yao Niang was pushed to the ground by her, and she was not angry. Instead, what she said made Bai Yushi collapse.
"Master, in order to get me, you killed more than 20 members of the Zhao family, so you and I have been in love for ten years. How can you bear not to recognize me now?"
Everyone was shocked. To get a woman, kill everyone?
This Censor Bai is so vicious!
Bai Yushi felt bad all over. He pointed at Yao Niang and said, "Bitch, you're crazy. You're crazy."
Yao Niang looked at the frightened Emperor Chu and said: "If I were just your lord's Yao Niang, I would naturally not expose your lord. But Yao Niang is still the emperor's concubine Wu. I can't hide it and dare not say anything more." A lie."
Bai Yushi was so frightened by these words that he staggered back a few steps, with an expression of shock on his face.
When he came to his senses, his whole body was shaking like chaff, and he was so frightened that he almost leaked urine.
"Emperor, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know!"
The Great Chu Emperor was furious: "Someone came and put Bai Yushi on death row and used torture to extract a confession.
Censor Bai immediately knelt down in front of Prime Minister Yan and begged: "Prime Minister, please save me, please save me."
Prime Minister Yan himself was shocked by this incident. Regarding Concubine Wu, it must involve the dead third prince. He did not dare to touch it and could not touch it.
"Yu Shi Bai, you committed such a heinous crime yourself. I only feel hatred for you. How can I plead for you?"
Bai Yushi was stunned, raised his eyes to look at Prime Minister Yan, and met his warning eyes.
At this moment, he regretted that he should not have listened to Prime Minister Yan and went against the Weiwu Hou Mansion.
The Minister of Industry's eyes shone with shock when he saw it. His old friend was right, there was an expert behind this mighty Marquis Mansion.
Bai Yushi was taken away crying like a ghost, and was personally tried by the Minister of Dali Temple. The case of Bai Yushi killing a whole family.
Then, the emperor issued an edict in public, officially conferring Wei Wuhou as the third-grade censor.
Having completely replaced Bai Yushi's position, Marquis Weiwu looked extremely excited.
After leaving the main hall, Prime Minister Yan came over and said, "Marquis Weiwu, what you showed today really caught people off guard."
The old Marquis was too lazy to talk to Prime Minister Yan and snorted coldly: "As an official, I am upright and not afraid of detection."
Prime Minister Yan simply did not believe that a country man who had lived a mediocre life would suddenly become wise and resourceful.
So he asked: "Marquis Weiwu, there is someone behind this. He can even find the dangerous card of Concubine Wu."
Marquis Weiwu snorted coldly: "As long as a person has shortcomings, he can be caught. Prime Minister Yan must hide his weaknesses!"
Prime Minister Yan snorted coldly, and asked someone to check after returning to find out whose instructions Marquis Weiwu received.
——
Prison inside the palace.
The emperor looked at Concubine Wu angrily: "Why are you still alive? My prince is dead, but you are still alive."
Concubine Wu said: "Back then, I was young and vigorous, but I suffered a miscarriage and lost my flesh and blood. Naturally, I didn't want my enemy to give birth to a healthy son, so I killed the newborn third prince on the day the empress gave birth."
She recalled what happened back then, and the emperor held his breath, because the death of the third prince was likely to reveal the true life experience of King Chu.
Concubine Wu continued: "The Empress was still the Crown Princess at the time. She fell into a coma after giving birth to the third prince. When the doctor left, I took the third prince out, cruelly strangled him to death in his infancy, and then took the medicine to fake death. Yao jumped into the pool with the third prince in his arms."
The Minister of Dali Temple recorded this, and the questions of more than ten years resurfaced again.
That year, Concubine Wu fell into the water and died, and the infant Third Prince was also among them. However, if Concubine Wu deliberately held the Third Prince and fell into the water, the pinch marks on the Third Prince's neck could not be explained.
He said: "The pinch marks on the third prince's neck are obviously those of an adult man."
Concubine Wu admitted: "Yes."
"who is it"
"My brother, Mr. Wu Qi."
Concubine Wu readily admitted without hiding anything.
She continued: "In order to take revenge, I disguised my brother as a palace maid to accompany me, in order to wait for the then crown princess, who is now the empress, to give birth."
The Minister of Dali Temple nodded: "That makes sense."
He stood up and said: "Emperor, when my master was investigating this case, the only thing that couldn't be explained was the pinch marks on the necks of the third prince, and Concubine Wu was also dead. There was no evidence to prove her death, so it became a palace mystery."
But that was not what the emperor was concerned about. He asked Concubine Wu: "Did you notice anything strange when you took the child away?"
Concubine Wu was puzzled: "What do you mean by this?"
"Didn't you find anything unusual when you took the child away?"
Concubine Wu thought carefully and found nothing unusual.
She said: "I can't think of it."
Emperor Chu's face became even more gloomy: "Bitch, you can betray Bai Yushi and admit everything readily, it must be to protect someone who makes you feel more important. If you can even betray your own brother, then this important person It must be your bloodline."
Yao Niang's eyes trembled, this was actually guessed by Emperor Chu.
The Great Chu Emperor said: "You are able to fake death and kill for revenge for the sake of the fetus in your belly, which shows how much you value your own flesh and blood."
Yao Niang's eyes turned red and she looked at Emperor Chu full of resentment: "You are not worthy of being a father at all. The child in my belly is also your flesh and blood."
When she said this, her eyes were filled with hatred and she said angrily: "It was obviously Wu Xia, that bitch who harmed the fetus in my belly, but you are partial and said it was an accident. If you don't help your child avenge, then let me avenge it, mine If her son dies, her flawless son cannot live either.”
The emperor was furious: "The whole story of your pregnancy was clearly stated at the beginning, but you didn't believe the evidence and only believed in yourself. It's because you have your own way of doing things and make mistakes again and again."
Yao Niang didn't listen at all and just said paranoidly: "I feel unlucky to fall into your hands now. I'll kill or cut him up as you please."
