That afternoon, a shocking news spread in Beijing, which shocked everyone!
Daxing County Yayuan police officer Lu Yin injured his leg while chasing a prisoner. Later, he went to the Tzu Chi Bureau to work as a police officer, but he noticed errors and omissions on the roster.
So Lu Yin went to the person in charge of Tzu Chi Bureau, Master Yuan You, to inquire. As a result, Master Yuan You was quite panicked and exposed his flaws.
Lu Yin kept an eye on it and went to Daxing County to arrest Chu Sheng that day. Several people dressed up in disguise and followed the clues to go to Huguo Temple to find out.
This investigation was incredible, and they actually discovered that there was a farm hidden in the mountains behind Huguo Temple, and this farm was actually a den for the people of the North to train dead soldiers!
The most heartbreaking thing is that these victims were all young children of the Tzu Chi Bureau back then!
They were "adopted" here, suffered inhuman abuse, and finally became murder weapons in the hands of the people in the North!
As soon as this incident came out, the whole capital was shocked!
Especially when the news was revealed that the culprit was the late Jade Concubine’s subordinates, public outrage reached its peak in an instant!
You know, if Princess Nalaoshizi Yuliu hadn't come to make peace, the Northern Kingdom would have been included in the Yong Dynasty's territory by General Qiao's iron-blooded methods!
On this day, people's hearts were greatly moved.
The nobles and knowledgeable people in the capital took to the streets one after another, angrily denounced the wolfish ambitions of the Northern Kingdom, and denounced the sin of Princess Yuliu's old army of raising dead soldiers!
Memorials like snowflakes flew to the Imperial Study Room, begging the Holy One to seek justice for so many innocent children and young people who suffered, and to cut the traitors of the Northern Kingdom into pieces with a thousand knives!
As the son of Yu Liu, the second prince was naturally pushed to the forefront.
The Chunwei fraud case was mentioned again last year, and the original incident of Sheng Mingcheng beating the Dengwen drum to sue the second prince was also revealed.
The phrase "Those who are not of my race must have different minds" was on the lips of all the people. Everyone turned their attention to the palace, waiting for Emperor Yong to give an explanation to the people of the world!
Those official ladies who often went to Huguo Temple to offer incense and donate money for sesame oil almost vomited to death from the news!
I originally thought that the Huguo Temple was granted by the late emperor and had the name of protecting the country, so I felt honored every time I went there.
But it turned out that Mercy Temple had already become a den for thieves, and they were so horrified that they all cursed!
In the Putian Street restaurant, Qiao Bo and Qiao Jiaojiao were sitting by the window. Downstairs, indignant scholars were speaking passionately.
The people gathered around in circles, hearing the inhumane treatment those children had suffered and the dark and cramped cellar, and they all shed tears of grief!
The foundation of a country lies in its youth!
The people of the Northern Kingdom dared to do such unscrupulous things in the land of their Yong Dynasty, on the outskirts of Beijing, and even in the Huguo Temple. This was an attempt to destroy the foundation of their Yong Dynasty, and their sinister intentions were frightening!
"If I look on coldly today, disaster will happen to me tomorrow, and no one will wave the flag and shout for me!"
"Justice! We will fight for justice for those children!"
"The thieves of the Northern Kingdom should be punished and killed. Even if they were quartered by five horses, it would be difficult to relieve the hatred in our hearts!"
...
When Qiao Jiaojiao saw this, she knew that public opinion had been taken to the extreme.
After the prince's order came out from the palace, Qiao Tianjing followed his previous plan and asked the Daxing County Government to come forward to reveal the matter.
Chu Sheng and Lu Yin are both passionate people. Even if they knew that they would be involved in this matter, it would be difficult to stay out of it, and they might even be implicated in trouble, but they still chose to step into the game without hesitation!
After Tan Hanchi learned the whole story, he was very angry and anonymously wrote an apology of more than a thousand words, criticizing the traitors from the North!
The proclamation was circulated among scholars, scholars, and people of insight, causing an uproar!
At the same time, the prince and the secret guards of the Qiao family went deep into the market, adding fuel to the flames, and together they created a scene where all the people are fighting together today!
[After what happened today, it will be extremely difficult for the second prince to become the crown prince or even the king of the Yong Dynasty! 】
[Water can carry a boat and it can also overturn it. If Emperor Yong continues to insist on his own way, he will lose the support of the people of the world! 】
[I really can’t think of any other way for the second prince to turn the tables. In this case, dad will really have to keep an eye on the second prince and prevent him from fleeing to the North on his way back to the capital. 】
[If the second prince has never tried to escape along the way, then we must be even more vigilant, because with the second prince’s scheming, there is no way he will fall into a trap. 】
[If he dares to come back, he must have a trump card in his hand that we don’t know about! 】
With her thoughts reaching this point, Qiao Jiaojiao inevitably felt a little uneasy.
She did not forget Aunt Rou's hesitation in speaking, and the suspicion of Emperor Yong's early death.
[It seems that when the second prince returns to the capital, I may have to take the risk of following him to the palace! 】
[Fortunately, Xiao Si is already aware of it. Maybe I can ask for his help. If anything goes wrong with Emperor Yong and the Second Prince, I can use the Merit Mall to take action in time! 】
Qiao Jiaojiao secretly made up her mind.
————
The Hall of Nourishing Heart.
Emperor Yong's consciousness slowly awoke. Before he opened his eyes, the queen's voice floated into his ears.
"What does it mean to vomit blood twice? Even if the anger attacks the heart, the Holy Dragon's body is healthy, why is it like this?"
"Didn't Dr. Zou give the Holy Ping An pulse every day? Did he say anything?"
Huang Pei's voice sounded soon after, with a hint of panic.
"Back to you, Madam, there was no problem with Dr. Zou's pulse check earlier. Today, I'm just afraid...I'm afraid..."
Huang Pei hesitated to speak, but the queen suddenly chuckled.
"I'm afraid it's because the matter involves His Majesty's beloved Jade Concubine, that's why he's so angry!"
"Huang Pei, since there is nothing wrong with Your Majesty, you just need to take good care of yourself. I am of no use here. First -"
Hearing the Queen's increasingly cold tone, Emperor Yong felt anxious. He suddenly opened his eyes and saw a corner of the phoenix robe stretched out beside the couch.
He almost instinctively raised his hand and grasped the queen's wrist.
The queen was shocked, and when she turned around, she saw Emperor Yong lying on the couch, looking up at her.
The feeling of nausea surged up again, and the queen took a deep breath and sat back on the couch.
When Emperor Yong saw this, he actually let go of his hand.
"Queen."
When he spoke, his voice was hoarse, like someone who had been ill for a long time.
The Queen couldn't help but be secretly shocked when she heard this.
She knew that the news that her second son was not her biological child would definitely shock the Holy Emperor, but she didn't expect that it would weaken him so much!
This thought just turned around in the queen's mind, and then turned into ridicule and coldness.
It’s understandable that deep love comes with deep responsibility.
"What do you think, Your Majesty?"
The Queen tried her best to soften her voice and asked with "concern".
Emperor Yong's eyes were fixed on the queen, but he asked: "The queen also knows?"
The queen was startled for a moment, then nodded.
"What do you think after hearing this?"
Emperor Yong stood up slightly. Upon seeing this, Huang Pei immediately came forward to help him and placed two pillows for Emperor Yong.
Emperor Yong sat up, his eyes burning, never leaving the queen's face.
The queen shook her head calmly, "Go back to your Majesty, I have no thoughts at all."
There is no greater sorrow than the death of one's heart.
My heart is dead, let alone my thoughts and feelings.
Emperor Yong looked at the queen's calm appearance, but his heart was filled with turmoil.
This Yangxin Palace...the queen has not been here for more than ten years. Ever since that slap...
Yu Liu met the queen before committing suicide.
The two did not know what they said. After returning to Jinyu Palace, Yuliu took his own life.
At that time, he was grief-stricken and depressed for several days. When he remembered it afterwards, he summoned the queen to ask questions.
The queen knelt in front of him, explaining at the top of her lungs every word that Yu Liu's death had nothing to do with her.
What did he say at that time?
He said: "Even if you didn't kill her, you were one of the murderers who forced her to death!"
He was so angry that he immediately slapped the queen, and the red slap mark was branded on the left side of the queen's face...
