Revenge of Rebirth: Intrigue

Chapter 578 Punishment
Pulling out other witnesses, Lily couldn't continue to quibble, and said in a crying voice: "Your Majesty, this matter was indeed done by the servant, please give the servant a death!"

The emperor narrowed his eyes dangerously, suppressed the anger in his heart, and asked her: "Did the imperial concubine order you to do it?"

Lily was silent for a long while, then shook her head and said, "No, the servant girl wanted to do this herself."

Mu Huaxian chuckled lightly, and said lightly: "I have no grievances or enmities with you, what's more, you are just a court lady, and you will need a token from the imperial concubine to leave the palace. Don't you say that now that the emperor And you adults are all fools?"

She said such a sentence at the right time, making it impossible for everyone to stand on the side of the imperial concubine and speak for Lily.

Otherwise, they will also become the kind of people who regard the emperor as a fool and commit the crime of deceiving the emperor.

At this time, the emperor had already lost his patience with this matter, and was deceived by a court lady with such a simple lie, his anger could no longer be suppressed, and he said coldly: "Come on, take her down for me!" , hit twenty big boards again! If you still don’t confess, you will continue to fight!”

Lily's complexion changed drastically, she was as pale as paper, but she bit her lip and didn't say a word until she was dragged out of the Golden Palace by the guards, and screams came from outside the palace.

Mu Huaxian had expected this to happen. Since the imperial concubine dared to ask Lily to do that, it means that this court lady is trustworthy and she will definitely not betray her. Therefore, even if Lily is beaten to death now, she should not confess a word .

However, since it has already been proven that the imperial concubine's personal maid did it, and the court lady refused to admit it even after being beaten to death, doesn't it mean that this matter is inseparable from the imperial concubine?

What's more, Gu Wanshuang testified that those scriptures were indeed copied by the imperial concubine instructing her to trick her into copying.

The imperial concubine will never get rid of this crime.

Everyone present understood this, and it can be said that they can now be convicted.

Mu Huaxian looked at the emperor, and asked softly: "Hua Xian dares to ask the emperor, if the imperial concubine can't explain herself after waking up, how will the emperor deal with her?"

She has to ask the result here in front of everyone, and with all the officials watching here, the emperor can't be biased in the slightest.

Mu Huaxian is now the princess of the second rank, no matter how he has no real power, he is still a noble person. The imperial concubine secretly designed and tried to kill her, so she should not be punished lightly.

The emperor's face became ugly, and he was very angry at Mu Huaxian's aggressiveness today, but she did nothing wrong, no matter how dissatisfied he was, he couldn't vent to her.

At this time, he could only think seriously, and said after a long while: "If it is really the concubine's doing at this time, then... let her be concubine Yun, and stop thinking about it for three months, after all, she also assists the queen in governing the six palaces. For many years, the merits are indispensable, and the merits and demerits are offset, such a punishment is satisfactory?"

It is not bad to be demoted from concubine to concubine, and the most important point is that she is banned for three months.

That is to say, within three months, the imperial concubine will not be able to participate in the party struggle, and the harem will be completely handed over to the empress. This is a good opportunity to eliminate the imperial concubine's manpower!
Mu Huaxian couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, but there was no emotion on his face: "The emperor is wise."

"Okay, I'm tired too, let's stop here today, we're all gone." He said, waved his hand, got up and left.

Changde hurriedly shouted loudly: "Back to court——"

All the officials knelt down to send the emperor off respectfully, and then they dispersed.
