Prosperous advisors

Chapter 225 The End of the Zhu Clan (2)
Perhaps because they knew that the matter was unusual, all the concubines and princesses bowed solemnly to the Emperor Hua.Then went to their respective positions.The queen sat on Hua Huang's left hand side, while the others were led by Concubine Rong and sat behind the screen.

"Mr. Zhu, are you guilty?" Hua Huang asked lightly.

Yungui was taken aback, she was also suddenly locked up by the imperial guards and brought here.He didn't even know what happened, and he didn't even have time to communicate with Murong Yu.At this moment, he could only wonder in his heart whether Mu Feiluan's affairs had been exposed?

"The concubine... I don't know what crime the concubine has committed." The Yungui man hesitated for a moment, but still denied it.

Hua Huang sneered and said, "I don't know?"

Yungui nodded, gritted his teeth and said, "Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

Murong Yu suddenly stepped out, knelt down beside Yun Guiren, and said, "Father, I don't know what my mother and concubine did wrong to make my father so angry. It is necessary to alarm the royal clan, mother and queens, and all the mothers and concubines? But ...My son is willing to take the punishment on behalf of my mother and concubine."

Hua Huang is not a person who is easily moved, so he just sneered and said: "You are filial, I'm afraid you can't replace me."

Murong Yu clearly knew that the current situation was very unfavorable to him.No matter what happened to the mother and concubine was caught by the emperor, her fate would not be worse.After all, the father would not kill his son, even if it was for his reputation.If the surrogate mother is punished, she can also gain a good reputation.One day he will make a comeback!
Gritting his teeth, Murong Yu said, "Please punish me, Father."

How could Emperor Hua not know Murong Yu's thoughts, if it was another scene, he would applaud Murong Yu's scheming, but this time Murong Yu was obviously about to miscalculate, "Fu Wang, tell me."

Murong Ke sighed helplessly in his heart, staring at the eyes of all the people in the hall, and said in a deep voice: "I want to tell my father, Zhu Bian, the king of Pingnan County, claimed that there was something strange about the death of the late mother-in-law back then. It was poisoned by the people of Yungui."

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the hall.Murong Ke continued: "This matter is of great importance. My son, I dare not be good at it. I have to report to my father and ask my father to show me."

"There is such a thing?"

"Empress Gu was actually poisoned to death..." In the main hall, the royal clan members couldn't help discussing.Compared with the current queen who does nothing, Queen Gu has always been regarded as a good queen who is kind, generous, magnanimous and fair in the eyes of the royal family.These uncles and uncles in the royal family and even the distant relatives have a good impression of her.

"This matter is pure slander! Father, please enlighten me!" Murong Yu said loudly, and at the same time, a cold sweat broke out in his heart.He really couldn't bear the crime of murdering the current queen.Let alone punishment, if the Zhu family was not a member of the royal family, it would not be an exaggeration to punish the Nine Clans.

Murong Ke glanced at Murong Yu, and said calmly: "My son is just reporting the truth. Father can personally interrogate the King of Pingnan County for everything." He has no enmity with Murong Yu, although he was shocked when he found out about it. , but I don't want to get involved in it myself.

Hua Huang was silent for a moment, nodded and said: "Bring Zhu Bian in."

Soon, Zhu Bian was also escorted up.These few days of house arrest and various incidents made Zhu Bian look much older.As soon as he entered the hall, his knees softened and he knelt down on the ground, "Your Majesty... the guilty minister Zhu Bian kowtowed to His Majesty."

"Pingshen." Looking at Zhu Bian who was kneeling in the hall, Hua Huang said indifferently.

Zhu Bian got up tremblingly, and he no longer had the high spirits of being the king of Pingnan County in the past.

"King Pingnan County, King Fu said that you told King Gong's birth mother, Yun Gui, to poison the late Empress, but is it true?" In the clan, a prince stood up and asked in a deep voice.

Zhu Bian glanced at Murong Yu, and said: "The guilty minister dare not speak nonsense, what he said is true, please learn from your Majesty!"

Murong Yu and Zhu's apparently never thought that they would fall on Zhu Bian's body.Mrs. Zhu finally lost her usual composure, and screamed: "He is talking nonsense! Your Majesty, he is the one who framed my concubine with nonsense!" Mrs. Zhu knew very well that if this charge was confirmed, she would never stand up again. room for.Not to mention her, even Murong Yu will be devastated from now on.Hua Guo has always been strict about the distinction between the concubine and the concubine. If Murong Xi hadn't been implicated because of the Gu family's affairs, the other princes would not have hoped to ascend to the throne even if they were powerful.And the future emperor of Hua Kingdom must not have a biological mother who murdered his aunt.

Zhu Bian had already calmed down at this time, he didn't go to see Murong Yu and Zhu Shi, nor did he go to see Murong Xi standing behind Murong Ke.He just kowtowed deeply to Emperor Hua in the hall and said: "My little girl heard this matter from Yun Guiren to Prince Gong with her own ears, please Your Majesty look into it."

Zhu's face turned pale. She did tell Murong Yu about this, but she never thought that Zhu Mingyan would hear it.And that Zhu Mingyan, who always seemed to have no brains, even concealed that she knew about it, and even told Zhu Bian!
But fortunately... Zhu Mingyan is dead!

"Zhu Mingyan is already dead, so the king of Pingnan County naturally wants to say what he wants to say." Murong Yu's face was a little gloomy, but he didn't lose his sense of proportion.Staring at Zhu Bian, he said in a cold voice: "Who on earth wants to frame this king? Let the king of Pingnan County take so much trouble to falsely accuse the concubine mother in front of the emperor?"

Zhu Bian gritted his teeth, he really had no evidence.If Prince Gong insisted that he had framed him, he would really have no way to defend himself.But... Concerned about Murong Yu and Zhu's reaction, Zhu Bian felt that what was written in that letter was probably true.Then...with Murong Yu and Zhu's family, they have a feud with King Ping who killed his mother.Zhu Bian did not believe that King Ping would be unprepared.

Now that the Pingnan County Prince's Mansion and Prince Gong's Mansion are completely torn apart, Zhu Bian gritted his teeth without any hesitation and said, "This king not only knows about the Yungui people drugging the late queen. This king also knows... His Royal Highness Prince Gong also made the same request to His Highness Ping Wang. In the past two years, His Royal Highness Ping Wang’s health should not be as good as before. If His Majesty doesn’t believe it, you can ask the imperial physician to take the pulse of His Highness Ping Wang to see if it is the same as the empress back then. Same symptoms!"

For a moment, the hall was full of awe.Everyone turned their surprised eyes to Zhu Shi and Murong Yu.These two people are a bit too courageous.The mother poisoned the queen, and the son followed suit by poisoning the elder brother.You know, when King Ping was still the prince, he was not mean to Prince Gong.

The expression on Murong Yu's face was stiff, he looked up at the Emperor Hua who was thinking about something in the palace, and gritted his teeth, "Father, my son was wronged."

Hua Huang's eyes fell on Murong Xi who hadn't spoken since entering the palace to pay his respects, and asked, "Prince Ping, what do you say?"

Murong Xi raised his eyes, looked at Hua Huang for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "All is up to His Majesty."
