Chapter 108 The Ruthless Emperor's House

Naturally, Wang Gangquan knew what the emperor was worrying about these days. As the only son of the empress dowager, if the empress dowager had no results, the emperor would feel restless.

Today's son is known for his benevolence and filial piety, unlike people like Wang Bingquan who don't return to the palace several times a year, even if Wang Bingxian became emperor, he still pays respects to the emperor and queen mother three times a day in the morning, afternoon and evening, and never dares to slack off for a moment .

Now the emperor rarely showed a smiling face, indicating that the matter of the queen mother has been settled.

Sure enough, after the palm print eunuch said the phrase "start playing if there is something to do, and leave the court if there is nothing to do", the Minister of the Ministry of punishment was the first to stand up.

"Your Majesty, the Ministry of Criminal Justice has already caught the real culprit regarding the secret operation in Beijing. After interrogation, the man confessed to his crime and admitted that he had no accomplices. This is the man's confession. Your Majesty, please have a look."

"Oh? Submit it quickly!"

Wang Bingde, who was always present every morning, was closing his eyes and resting his mind at this moment, showing no other indications.

It is true that he provoked the Queen Mother, but he doesn't care about the result.He once asked the Empress Dowager if there would be a result, but the Empress Dowager did not answer, he only said that he could figure it out, the Empress Dowager was not the goal, nor was it the goal to overthrow the Empress Dowager.

As for the real purpose, Wang Bingde didn't ask much, but he more or less guessed it.

The emperor had received the news as early as last night, and the move he made this morning was nothing more than an explanation to the officials.

After watching Lu Xiaoxian's confession symbolically, he ordered the little eunuch beside him to pass on the confession.

No matter how stupid the ministers are, they know that the outcome of this matter is settled, so no one will touch the emperor's fate.

"Since all the lovers have no objection, let's deal with it according to law." After glancing at the ministers, the emperor issued the final order.

After coming down to court, Wang Gingquan could only sigh inwardly. Although he didn't know why Lu Xiaoxian would spare his life to protect the Queen Mother, since he did so, there must be his reasons. get to the bottom.

The only thing that makes people worry is Xishun. The relationship between this boy and Lu Xiaoxian is too deep. It is not surprising that he will take the act of robbing the magic field. Wang Gangquan is now having a headache as to how to deal with this boy.

……

"Your Majesty, do you want my concubine to die?" Outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the Empress Dowager cried through the door.

If there is anyone else in the entire capital who is worried about this matter besides Wang Gangquan, it must be Lu Xiaoxian's own sister, the empress dowager who is under one person and above ten thousand.

Ever since Lu Xiaoxian, formerly known as Lu Quan, was arrested, the Queen Mother got the news immediately.But at this time, she was already on the cusp of the storm, and any action she made would attract attention. These days, she could only wait for the result without thinking about food or tea. She would rather the other party confess herself.

As soon as the morning court at the Hall of Supreme Harmony ended this morning, the Empress Dowager who was in the Palace of Compassion and Ning immediately got the news.

Now she is in a dilemma.

Her son, the current Holy Majesty was unwilling to convict her, so he arrested Lu Xiaoxian who was related to this matter.But she also knew that it would not work to plead with the emperor. In order to give an explanation to the world, the right of way must die.

After thinking about it again and again, the Queen Mother finally made a decision. If there is anyone else who can convict her, then only the Supreme Emperor who is now in the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

As soon as the Queen Mother came outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation, she was stopped by the guards at the door, and was told that the Queen Mother had been ordered by the Supreme Emperor not to be seen.

Thus, there is a picture of the Queen Mother begging outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

The queen mother cried for nearly half an hour outside the hall, and confessed her identity, experience, and all her crimes to the emperor who did not say a word in the room, but even so, there was still no sound from the room.

"You and I have been husband and wife for more than 30 years, don't you have any affection? Others say that the emperor's family is the most ruthless. The concubine has seen it today!"

The empress dowager's face was covered with tears at the moment, and she was completely slumped on the ground. Her eyes were full of resentment. She resented the emperor's ruthlessness and hated her own powerlessness. Women are just women after all, no matter how high their status is, they are still inferior to men.

Just when her heart was ashamed and she got up to leave, a long-lost voice came from the house: "I knew today, why bother, you go."

The empress dowager, whose back was facing the gate, was startled when she heard the words, and then turned around. Her distorted expression also relaxed at this moment, and she said softly, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your fulfillment!" in an unprecedentedly relaxed tone.

After she walked away, a sigh came from the room.

……

As for the spies, the emperor naturally wanted to end the matter earlier, so he hastily set the execution date in the early court, which was exactly three days later.

On the way back to the mansion, Wang Gingquan was a little hesitant, he didn't know whether he should tell Xishun about it.

Ordinarily, Xishun should have the right to know, but he was afraid that if he told him, the child would do something stupid again.

When Wang Gangquan was frowning, he accidentally raised his head and found an acquaintance walking across from him. A smile immediately appeared on his face that had been suffering, and it was Yan Rongrong who came.

"Hey! Miss Yan, we are really destined, amidst the crowds..."

"Okay, stop talking nonsense, let me ask you, has Zhao Zhiyi been back to the capital before?"

Hearing this, Wang Gangquan rolled his eyes again and again, and after Yan Rongrong's appetite had been whetted, he said leisurely, "Yes, he came back a few days ago, and he probably hasn't left yet. I don't know what Miss Yan would do for him." ?”

"Don't inquire about what you shouldn't, where is he now?"

Yan Rongrong has never had much patience with Wang Bingquan. The reason why she knew that Zhao Zhiyi had returned to the capital was because when chatting with Nie Yingxue a few days ago, the other party had inadvertently mentioned that in the process of chasing Lu Xiaoxian, she met a mysterious man wearing a mask.

From Nie Yingxue's description, Yan Rongrong guessed the identity of this person at once.

Wang Gingquan picked his ears and said helplessly: "You know him, he always comes and goes without a trace. We had a drink together, and he disappeared the next day."

The reason why he said that was because of his own selfishness.

Before the matter of Lu Xiaoxian was settled, he couldn't deal with the matter with Yan Rongrong with peace of mind, but he was afraid that the other party would return to the northwest, so he decided to use this method to leave the other party first, and wait for the matter to pass. , Let's talk about lifelong events.

"Nothing!"

Yan Rongrong was not satisfied with Wang Bingquan's answer. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, I heard from Sister Nie that Boss Lu was arrested. Did he really break the law? If he was wronged I'm going to find Sister Nie to help me investigate."

Yan Rongrong is not a heartless person, on the contrary, she is an extremely warm-hearted woman, even if Wang Gangquan's friend is arrested, she will not stand idly by.

Wang Gangquan was moved, grabbed Yan Rongrong's little hand, tried to squeeze out a few tears and said: "Miss Yan is really a good person, but unfortunately you can't help, it doesn't matter if Nie Shenzhang said about it, Miss Yan don't have to worry about it." .”

Yan Rongrong was a little annoyed at being caught by Wang Bingquan, but seeing the other party's sad look, he was embarrassed to interrupt, and could only comfort him: "Don't be too sad, I believe Sister Nie, she will never catch a good person by mistake. .”

"Hmm!" Wang Bingquan pursed his lips, pretending to have a sad face.
