At this time, Leng Zian was half-naked, with a bunch of tent bars on his back. After entering the room, he knelt down on one knee, lowered his head and clasped his fists, saying:
"Your Majesty, Leng Zian offended Your Majesty before, and now you are here to plead guilty and ask Your Majesty's forgiveness."
Seeing this scene, the emperor suddenly took pictures of Long An and roared,
"You are so bold that you come naked in front of me and all my lords. What kind of behavior do you have? Come here!"
"etc……"
Before the emperor finished speaking, Luo Lan lifted her skirt and came to the front of the crowd. She bowed and bowed slightly.
"Your Majesty, although the uncle's clothes are indecent, the thorns he carries on his back are extraordinary. Although the thorns are from an ordinary place, they contain many burrs that can scratch people's skin. If your Majesty, If you don’t believe it, take a closer look, the emperor’s uncle’s back has been punctured, and there is even blood oozing out, which shows his sincerity in coming to bear the crime.”
Hearing what she said, everyone looked at Leng Zian's back and saw drops of blood flowing out from his body.
The emperor was unmoved. He snorted with his nose and said disdainfully:
"So what? If he does this, will he be able to clear his charge of trying to assassinate me?"
"Of course not."
Luo Lan took two slow steps forward, folded his hands together, pursed his lips, and replied softly:
"I met the emperor's uncle when I came here just now. I saw him carrying a thorn stick, so I asked him what it meant. He said that his son Xiaozhi got lost last night. He was looking for it everywhere. He thought he would use it after he found it. The late Emperor's Exquisite Sword taught him a lesson, but he didn't want to accidentally break into the Emperor's study room and make the Emperor misunderstand him, so today he specially took off his shirt and came with a thorn stick on his back as a sign of I apologize to the Emperor and ask the Emperor to punish me."
"That's nonsense."
The emperor suddenly slapped the dragon case in front of him heavily, raised his eyebrows and roared, his face was as cold as ice, and his eyes were glowing scarlet.
Seeing this, Taishi Wu also agreed, "Yes, that's nonsense. Who doesn't know that his son is no longer in the palace? You may have taken him somewhere. He clearly came to the emperor last night to ask for punishment."
"Initiate an expedition to prosecute?"
Luo Lan repeated Taishi Wu's words and asked with confusion on his face:
"What does Taishi Wu mean by this? You said that the emperor's uncle is here to ask for a crime? Then what crime is he asking about? I swear there is no one in Daning who doesn't know that the emperor is loyal to his ministers and loves the people. What crime does the emperor have?"
Her words made Master Wu speechless for a moment, and he even regretted what he had just said by mistake.
"Stop arguing."
The emperor roared again, "Leng Zian, you came to my palace with a sword last night. No matter what the purpose was, it was inappropriate. Today you let people from your Yunnan Palace come straight to the capital. Don't use others to block it for you." Well, please tell me yourself, what do you want to do?"
Leng Zian thought that he had to escape no matter what today, and he had to think about his son, not for anything else, so he did not dare to speak loudly, but tightened his expression, lowered his head, and replied softly :
"Your Majesty, what happened last night was really... really an accident. My son really... did hide it because he didn't want to go back to Yunnan with me. I watched him enter the imperial study room, so I followed him in. , it was getting late at that time, and I didn’t have time to look up, and it wasn’t until I entered that I discovered that there was the Imperial Study Room.”
Obviously, the emperor would not believe his words, but the emperor did not expose him, but continued to ask:
"Then it seems that your troops from the Yunnan Palace came to the city this morning to pick up your son?"
"right."
Leng Zian nodded heavily, but the emperor laughed contemptuously.
At this moment, Wu Hong strode over. When the emperor saw him, he immediately pointed at him and asked,
"General Wu, tell me, judging from the momentum of the officers and soldiers coming from the Yunnan Palace, are they coming to pick up people with happy faces, or are they coming to attack the city and save people with angry faces?"
Hearing the emperor's question, everyone turned their attention to Wu Hong. At this time, his words would definitely become the most powerful explanation. Master Wu raised his head proudly. He expected that his son would definitely tell the truth about what happened today. It will not be easy for Leng Zian to escape.
Unexpectedly, Wu Hong tightened his expression and directly cupped his fists and said:
"Your Majesty, what happened at the gate of the city this morning was indeed a misunderstanding after my investigation. People from the Yunnan Palace came to pick them up, and the commotion was indeed louder. The officers and soldiers guarding the city had never seen such a posture, so they He was so afraid that he closed the city gate directly, which caused panic among the people and misunderstanding among everyone, including the ministers."
As soon as he said these words, everyone present was surprised, even the emperor had a look of confusion on his face.
Master Wu reminded him directly with his eyes. Seeing that he didn't look at him at all, he said directly:
"Hong'er, did you say the opposite?"
Seeing that his father was asking questions in such a harsh tone, Wu Hong hurriedly replied:
"I didn't say anything against it. This matter is true. I hope the emperor will learn from it."
As soon as he said this, Taishi Wu did not dare to pursue the matter any further. He knew better than anyone else that if his son told lies to the emperor, it would be a crime of deceiving the emperor.
So, he changed his tone and said directly:
"Even so, it doesn't make sense that he broke into the imperial study room last night, and it was obviously a lie. So how could his son be in the imperial study room?"
Hearing what he said, Luo Lan raised his eyebrows, raised the corners of his mouth, and said softly:
"Your Majesty, I can prove this. That child Xiaozhi is naughty by nature. He may have gone somewhere now. He may be in the Palace of Preservation and Harmony."
Hearing this, the emperor suddenly frowned and snorted. He knew that this must be a trick played by Shui Luolan and Leng Zian. He didn't know what happened to these two people. Yesterday, Leng Zian wanted to kill her, but today she actually did it. Speak for him.
At this time, Huang Shixiong sarcastically said again:
"King Zhennan's excuse is really good. On the day your so-called son was injured, everyone saw that he had expired, but now you are saying that he was hiding behind a cat. Could it be that your brain has been stimulated and cannot be used properly? If that's true In this way, I believe that the emperor will not punish a crazy person like you."
"You're crazy."
As soon as Huang Shixiong finished speaking, Leng Zian responded angrily, and then said angrily:
"Everything I just said is true. Now my son must have come to Baohe Hall again. He likes to hide in busy places."
Hearing this, everyone present booed, and the emperor's face was even more disdainful.
He half-closed his eyes, raised his hand and patted the dragon case in front of him, and roared angrily,
"Alright, Leng Zian, don't be pretentious here. Someone comes to clean the Hall of Preservation and Harmony every morning, not even a crack in the bricks, but you said that your son is in the Hall of Preservation and Harmony? This is simply a fantasy. Tan.”
