It’s hard to break a phoenix’s destiny

Chapter 479: Thousands of Doubts

Not only Yuan Heshuo's eyes widened, but even Pu Jinshan and other people in the Shangshu Office were a little angry. Pu Jinshan said directly: "Your Majesty, this is a national event, how can you treat it as a joke? Queen Hui is just a woman, why does she come here to make trouble? She should go back to the palace to take care of the children."

"That's right! I heard that Queen Hui is not in good health. You should go back and take care of her."

"It's dark and gloomy inside the prison, don't get sick again!"

"We can't afford to serve such a delicate girl."

These people spoke more and more impolitely, even showing disdain and contempt. Qin Chaoge, who was following Yang Xianrong, had a dark face and secretly drew out half of his sword.

Xu Henian stood beside him and poked him lightly with the whisk in his hand, signaling him not to be impulsive.

Qin Chaoge said with his lips: "They have already bullied me to the point of being bullied, why don't you beat them up?"

Xu Henian's lips said: "Look at us, there are only a few of us. How many people are there in the prison? How can we win?"

Qin Chaoge took a quick look and found that it was indeed the case. Now, even Yuan Jianshuo and the others were not around, and had left with Yang Xiankang. However, after so many days, the Yang brothers should have known about the news that they were forced to return to the palace, right?

Yang Xianrong sensed the two men's little movements, just turned her head to look at them, then shook her head.

"What? Queen Hui has tried the case before, so why can't she do it now?" Sima Chi still showed the dignity of the emperor and shouted directly.

"We dare not, we dare not." The officials then lowered their heads slightly.

Yuan Heshuo straightened his official robes and said, "It's just that Queen Hui seldom goes out, and the adults are a little curious for a while. Please don't be offended, Your Majesty and Queen Hui."

"Hmph, Queen Hui and I are here to try a case. What's the matter? Do you want to make fun of me?" Sima Chi became even angrier.

"I wouldn't dare." These people still understood the etiquette between the monarch and his subjects, and at least it allowed them to get away with it for the sake of face.

"Then don't waste time, open the door quickly and let me and Queen Hui in. You, go and bring out the suspect!" Although Sima Chi was very imposing, he was obviously not confident when observed closely. Yang Xianrong stood aside, smiled softly, and then said to him: "Your Majesty, don't be anxious, let's go in first. Of course, I also need... Lord Yuan, right? Can you help me prepare some things?"

"Oh oh oh, it's Queen Hui's order." Yuan Heshuo cupped his hands. He had a very good relationship with Concubine Pei, so he was relatively polite to Yang Xianrong.

"Help me prepare a jar of the best daughter's red wine and a plate of roasted lamb." Yang Xianrong's expression was normal, but the officials were furious and started to talk. It was obvious that Yang Xianrong knew nothing and came here to eat, drink and have fun. The Jin Dynasty was really doomed. How could there be such a queen?

In fact, even Sima Chi's heart trembled, and for a moment he doubted whether his previous choice was right. He looked at Yang Xianrong and really wanted to ask a question. But Yang Zongguan stood by and pulled his sleeve, so he held back.

Pu Jinshan was a straightforward person, and he shouted again, "Queen Hui, this is wrong. You are here to try a case."

"Yes." Yang Xianrong nodded, "These are needed for the trial."

"I've never heard of that!" Pu Jinshan looked back at the officials, and seeing that they all supported him, his voice and confidence became stronger. "Then you can see it this time." Yang Xianrong was not angry, and still looked at him and the others, her beautiful eyes were clear and there was no intention of playing around.

Yuan Heshuo stroked his beard and asked, "I have heard a little about Queen Hui's trial. However, this time it involves a huge amount of money, so don't treat it as a joke."

"No." Yang Xianrong was also very serious.

"Then, how many days will it take to solve the case? You know, this suspect is extremely cunning and goes back on his word. If he doesn't confess and doesn't point out where the gold is hidden, it will be difficult for us to deal with him." Yuan Heshuo also reminded her.

Yang Xianrong nodded again, "Don't worry, Lord Yuan. I have my own way. How about solving the case in three days?"

"What? You can solve the case in three days? You must be kidding!" The officials' voices became louder.

"Silence!" Qin Chaoge finally couldn't help shouting out loud. He wanted to establish his authority for Yang Xianrong.

But after hearing Qin Chaoge's voice, these people started to talk even louder. "We have been investigating for more than half a month and there is no result! How is it possible for you... ahem, ahem?"

"Sir Yuan, go and help me prepare." Yang Xianrong ignored those people and said to Sima Chi, "Your Majesty, you are the ruler of a country, you have to show some momentum, right?"

This gentle tone aroused Sima Chi's fighting spirit. He immediately straightened his back and ordered his red-clad spearmen to lead the way. No matter how the officials from the Shangshu Office complained, they had to go to the interrogation room in the prison first.

It is unheard of to try a case with delicious food and wine.

When Yuan Heshuo was preparing these things, he also spread the news. Many officials who were still in the palace could not resist their curiosity and sneaked over quietly, intending to see with their own eyes what this beautiful Queen Hui was going to do.

After Yang Xianrong followed Sima Chi into the interrogation room of the prison, she was disgusted by the smell here and turned to look at the room where the jailers rested. This room was large, clean and tidy, and the key point was that there was a long kang with a small fire underneath, making the room very warm.

"It's nice here, please sit down, Your Majesty." Yang Xianrong picked a quiet spot, and Cuixi immediately went forward to clean it up, and then helped Yang Xianrong sit down. Xu Henian thought about whether he should also move over, but it was obvious that there was no place for anyone to stand, so he had to stand aside with Qin Chaoge, and followed Cuixi closely.

On the other side, Manager Yang followed Sima Chi and watched the two of them sit down. He then hurriedly directed the jailers to light the lights and add a few more pieces of firewood to the earthen kang.

When Yuan Heshuo brought over the daughter's red wine and roasted lamb, Yang Xianrong and Sima Chi had just sat down and were listening to the jailer talking about the suspect Hong Tianquan's past and his performance in prison in recent days.

The jailers didn't dare to look up at Yang Xianrong, because her focused eyes made these rough men blush.

So, at this moment, many people fell silent.

There was also an atmosphere of imperial supremacy in the room.

Sima Chi secretly sat up straight, feeling the respected imperial aura.
