The queen's stewardess couldn't stand the palace's criminal laws and finally revealed the truth.
It’s the same as what Aunt Song and Liu He explained.
However, before Feng Ruobao had time to interrogate him, the leader of the secret guards beside the queen bit open the poison sac and committed suicide. He was unable to interrogate whether the Huangshaling incident was the queen's fault.
As for the Queen's affairs outside her home, she only gave orders to the leader of the secret guard, and the grandma in charge and the others did not know about it.
Feng Ruobao knelt down and apologized, "This slave is incompetent and failed to prevent him from committing suicide. Please punish him."
The emperor's expression was gloomy, as if he was extremely angry, and he looked at the queen coldly.
The queen bit her lip and frowned, "I am unjustly accused. I have never done anything. Your Majesty cannot just listen to a few servants and punish me."
The prince also knelt down and said, "Father, perhaps the slaves cannot withstand the criminal law, so they have to admit like this. My son believes that his mother will not do those things."
The emperor suddenly raised his hand and hit the prince on the head with a stick, "You mean, I'm trying to beat you to a trick?"
"I don't dare. I just believe in my mother."
The emperor suddenly sneered and looked at Xie Shoufu and his son, "You think so too?"
The Xie family father and son hurriedly said, "I don't dare, but the queen is the mother of a country after all, and represents the royal face. Your Majesty, please think twice."
"Don't you dare?" The emperor's voice softened and his expression gradually became calmer. "Then according to Xie Shangshu, the identification of Aunt Song, Liu He, and the Queen's close associates can deny the Queen's crime of murdering the emperor's heir?"
able!
But Xie Shen knelt down and remained silent.
It can convict, but it cannot convict the queen.
The emperor's calm voice sounded again, "Xie Aiqing has been the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment for many years. Is he so incompetent in the laws of the Wei Dynasty? How long does it take to think about such a simple case?
Or is it that Xie Aiqing is not qualified for the position of Minister of Justice? "
These words made the expressions of both the Xie family and his son change.
The Emperor planned to punish the Queen, and knowing that they were going to stop her, he asked the Xie family to make a choice, whether to protect the Queen or to keep their position as Minister of the Ministry of Punishment.
"Your Majesty, you can't do this. I am really unjust." The queen was also panicked. She knew that her father and brother would protect her, but that was under the premise that the interests of the Xie family were not threatened.
But if family interests were involved, she would have to stay behind, and her waist slumped.
Sure enough, as long as Lan Shu was involved, the emperor would be partial, not caring about his relationship with the Xie family, and not paying attention to himself as his head wife.
she suddenly laughed
Fortunately, fortunately, fortunately, she had ruthlessly killed those two bastards and driven Lan Shu crazy. Otherwise, her position as queen might not have been preserved until now, and her son might not have been able to become the prince.
He would always only have that bitch Lan Shu in his heart.
She suddenly glared at Lan Shu fiercely, and her eyes fell on Lan Shu's unchanging face. She was even more angry. Why, how could such a rough woman from the world be remembered by the king for decades.
But the famous lady trained by her aristocratic family could not catch his eye, even though she had done so much for him.
Her eyes returned to the emperor's face, "Your Majesty, everything I have thought and done these years has been for the royal family. For the sake of you and the prince, you cannot treat me like this."
The emperor was still looking at Xie Shen with his eyes half-closed. After hearing the queen's words, he clenched his teeth and squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth, "Is Xie Shangshu really not familiar with the laws of the Wei Dynasty?"
"His Majesty!"
The queen suddenly screamed loudly. She couldn't stand the emperor's ignorance, "Does your majesty really want to force my concubine like this?"
"Queen, the prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people. The queen is guilty, the prince is guilty, and the Xie family is guilty as well. Queen, do you understand?" The emperor finally looked at the queen and said word by word.
"No, no, no..." The queen suddenly turned pale and tears welled up.
Her expression finally changed.
Eyes begging.
But the emperor's eyes swirled around Lan Shu and then fell on Xie Shen.
Xie Shen was stared at so hard that his scalp went numb, and wet clothes gradually formed on his back. He looked at his father and saw that he had his eyes closed.
"Brother?" Even though she was prepared in her heart, the queen still looked in disbelief after hearing her brother's words.
Xie Shen lowered his head and did not look at her. There were too many witnesses, and there were countless people surrounding him outside. As the Minister of Punishment, if he did not know the laws of the Wei Dynasty, the emperor could justifiably remove his hat.
He is the future head of the Xie family, so how can he lose his official position?
The queen looked at Xie Shoufu again, and saw that his eyes were still closed. She then looked at her son. The prince's face was filled with anxiety, worry, and even some resentment.
Men are unreliable, fathers and brothers are unreliable, but at least the son is sincere.
She slumped on the ground, looked at the emperor, with a wry smile on her lips, and slowly shook her head at him, tears streaming down her face from the movement of shaking her head.
After a moment of silence between the emperor and her, he ordered in a deep voice, "The Queen Xie has attempted to murder the emperor's heir. She is unworthy of being the mother of a country. From today onwards, the Queen will be deposed from her position, moved to the cold palace, and taken away."
It was just about murdering the emperor's heir and not mentioning Huangshaling. Wei Qingyan's eyes darkened a bit.
Lan Shu's lips were slightly opened. Before she could say the sentence "Kill for life", Wei Qingyan pinched her arm. Wei Qingyan shook his head slightly towards her.
Although she didn't know why Wei Qingyan wanted to stop her, she still swallowed the words that reached her throat.
"Father..." The prince begged for mercy.
"You also go down and reflect on what you have thought and said today. I am not an old fool yet." The emperor looked at him with a serious look, "I can still make the decision in this dynasty."
This was said to the prince, and also to the Xie family father and son.
The prince wanted to say something else, but the queen stopped him with her eyes.
She slowly got up and walked to Lan Shu, her eyes filled with hatred, "Do you think you won? No, you didn't, and no one will win."
After saying that, without waiting for the eunuch to come forward, he turned around and walked out of the palace.
Perhaps she had been kneeling for too long, so she walked very slowly, as if she was reluctant to take a step forward and finish the road. The prince saw this and stepped forward to help her.
Feng Ruobao hurriedly followed him with his people.
The Xie family father and son and other ministers wanted to leave, but they couldn't because the Huangshaling incident was still involved and there was no result.
The emperor looked at Xie Shen, "I hope Xie Aiqing will continue to investigate the Huangsha Ridge matter and give justice to the general who protects the country as soon as possible."
"I obey the decree." Xie Shen responded hurriedly.
The emperor stopped talking, and the palace was so quiet that one could hear needles.
The commander of the Imperial Army had no choice but to speak and had already brought Luo Congyun.
The emperor also knew about Luo Congyun. Feng Ruobao told him it as gossip. He didn't expect that what he heard as a joke was actually done by him and Lan Shu's daughter.
Looking at the people walking into the palace timidly, the emperor frowned slightly.
He couldn't see any trace of Lan Shu in her body.
Lan Shu looked at Luo Congyun, thinking that this was her child. Her eyes instantly turned red. She moved slightly and reached Luo Congyun.
Luo Congyun was very scared when she entered the palace for the first time, but she was more happy. She would finally get her identity back. From now on, she would be a high-ranking princess.
She only glanced briefly at Lan Shu who suddenly walked up to her. Seeing that she was dressed in a very ordinary way, she quickly turned her gaze away, walked to the steps, knelt down in front of the emperor, "Daughter... daughter pays homage to father... …Father.”
"Your name is Luo Congyun?" the emperor asked.
"Yes, it's mother, my adoptive mother got it for me." Luo Congyun replied. Seeing no movement from above, out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that the woman in black just walked up to her again.
The man squatted down next to her and reached out to grab her hand. She shrank back in fright, "What are you doing?"
