Chapter 889
Outside the gate of the clan's mansion, more and more people were watching.
Although it's not yet time for the trial to begin, the road outside the door is packed!
"Can Ling Yu prove her innocence?"
The onlookers gathered together in twos and threes and talked about it.
"How is that possible? I heard that the witnesses and physical evidence are complete, Ling Yu must not quibble this time!"
"Why is this woman so vicious? She can even attack such a small child!"
Han Yu was among the crowd, anxiously waiting for the trial to begin.
Prince Yi has already told him that he must pay attention to Ling Yue's safety in the past few days to prevent the Wei Palace from retaliating.
Therefore, Han Yu and Aunt Li did not dare to tell Ling Yue the truth, and Ling Yue was not allowed to leave Prince Yi's palace.
Han Yu was sent out by Grandma Li today to inquire about the news. She listened to those people talking about the young lady, and she couldn't help but want to scold her back several times, but thinking about her mission, she had to listen with frustration.
"Why haven't you started yet?"
When the waiting time got too long, some people said impatiently.
"Isn't there a change? Has Ling Yu found a way to prove that she didn't kill anyone?"
Someone sneered: "The time has not come yet! Is your family the one that opened the clan mansion? You can try it whenever you want!"
Just as he was talking, he heard someone shouting: "Prince Hongshan and Vice Commander He are here!"
"Ah, Prince Hongshan is here too!"
Everyone was suddenly in an uproar.
Prince Hongshan is over sixty years old this year. He is the former Zongling of the Zongren Mansion, the sworn brother of the Supreme Emperor, and the only iron-hatted king in Western Qin.
This Prince of Hongshan has been retired for many years and has been retiring in the countryside, but he appears here today!
When Prince Cheng received the report from his subordinates that Prince Hongshan was coming, he smiled coldly.
Was Queen Wei afraid that she would favor Ling Yu, so she specially invited this giant Buddha to suppress her?
Although Prince Cheng is a relative of the royal family, Prince Hongshan can be equal to him, and Prince Hongshan also saved the Queen Mother's life back then.
Queen Wei's move also blocked the way for the Queen Mother to plead for Ling Yu!
This old guy, instead of teasing his grandson at home, comes here to help the tyrant!
Except for the Queen Mother and the old Marquis, few people knew that Prince Cheng and Prince Hongshan were at odds.
Prince Hongshan did not ask to retire at that time. He built the imperial mausoleum for the Supreme Emperor and lost more than two million silver.
This matter was investigated for a long time, but there was no conclusion, and finally it was dropped.
Prince Hongshan took the blame and resigned. He secretly suspected that Prince Cheng was spying on Zong Ling's position to frame him, so the two never interacted with each other. Occasionally they met at palace banquets and ignored each other.
Now that this old guy is here, Prince Cheng is afraid that he will secretly cause trouble and hinder his trial of the case.
People of the younger generation like Qin Shan only know the reputation of Prince Hongshan and do not know the specific grudges between the two.
But with He Zhu accompanying him, the alignment becomes clear at a glance.
"Why hasn't Prince Yi come yet?"
Qin Shan said worriedly when he saw that the time for the trial was approaching.
Anzhe had asked his servant to go out and wait, but there was no news at all, and he felt anxious.
"Doctor Liao, will Ling Yu wake up? You can't carry her to the hall like this, right?"
Anzhe asked anxiously.
Doctor Liao was also very anxious, but he checked Ling Yu's pulse several times, but the pulse condition remained the same.
He even took the risk to prick some acupuncture points on Ling Yu, but Ling Yu was still the same.
Dr. Liao was really at his wits' end.
"Prince Cheng, Prince Hongshan has arrived in the lobby and asked you when the trial will begin!"
Cheng Dong hurried in and said with a wry smile: "I have already told you about Princess Yi's situation!"
"Prince Hongshan only said one thing...The emperor has given Ling Yu the opportunity to prove his innocence. If Ling Yu doesn't wake up then, he will give up this opportunity! Then follow the emperor's will!"
