My husband is a traitor

Chapter 309 arraignment, old case

"My lord...Mu Lao failed." Jiang Meng opened the curtain and came in, and slightly cupped his hands at the frail and half-lying boy on the bed, then his face darkened, and said.

A Ying was gently stirring the brown medicinal juice in the porcelain-white bowl in her hand. Hearing this, she shook her hand, and the medicine almost spilled out. She hurriedly held the medicinal bowl and handed it to Jiang Ying who opened her eyes slightly after Wen Yan.

Jiang Ying wore half a mask, with white hair falling down, took the bowl from Aying with her white and thin hands, lowered her eyebrows slightly, and hummed in a low voice.

Then he raised his neck and drank it in one gulp without changing his face.

He reached out to Aying, "Sugar."

A Ying blinked his eyes, pursed the corner of his lower lip inaudibly, and handed him a piece of crispy candy as promised.

Jiang Ying's face remained the same as before, and while eating the crisp candy, she responded to Jiang Meng's previous words in a low voice, "Then...does sister know?"

Sure enough, after Miki's failure, what he was worried about was none other than Jiang Linlang.

With the excuse of holding the bowl, Ah Ying got up and went out, walked to the door, and stopped.

"Understood." Jiang Meng's voice was somewhat helpless and worried.

Then he heard the boy's hoarse voice with obvious apprehension, "Sister...you must be angry with me."

Hearing these words, Ah Ying's heart throbbed violently, and the coldness on his face also shattered.

After a while, looking at the clear sky, he exhaled lightly and clenched his fists. After a long time, his eyes looked forward firmly, as if he had made some kind of determination.

……

"Why is the emperor thinking of going to court today?"

"That's right, didn't you say that His Majesty's dragon body is not in good health?"

"Yeah, it's strange..."

In the Golden Luan Hall, the ministers who were summoned to the early court were all confused and whispering.

But the seat on the dragon chair in the Golden Luan Hall is still vacant. The emperor has not yet arrived, and even the prime minister has not yet arrived.

Gu Shengchang was the first to notice something strange, squinting his eyes, and glanced at Zhou Daren behind him, the latter shivered, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and shook his head.

Qi Rui also came to the court today, but the difference is that he knew that the early court order was not issued by his father, so——

It was Rong Jue's fault.

He exchanged glances with Qi Lei, the latter shook his head blankly, expressing that he couldn't figure out what to do.

"Prime Minister arrives—"

"The Emperor is here—"

It wasn't until the summons from the supervisor Gao Yang sounded that all the ministers came back to their senses and knelt down to greet him.

But seeing that the emperor's walking steps were a bit vain, relying on Rong Jue's support, he slowly walked up to his dragon chair and sat down.

Rong Jue returned to the ranks of officials, and unexpectedly met Gu Shengchang's warning eyes.

He just raised the corners of his lips slightly, turning his head away in an unclear manner.

"No courtesy." The emperor leaned on the dragon chair, not wanting to admit that his body felt as if it had been hollowed out, he couldn't lift up his energy, and it was difficult to speak.

Hearing the unanimous long live voice of all the officials, he seemed to have regained some energy, sat up straight, waved his hand, and signaled all the officials to stand up.

"It's the prime minister's intention to call all your loves here today." The emperor said, coughing with some discomfort, and the chief supervisor at the side hurriedly stepped forward to stroke his back, calming down.

Prime Minister?

All the ministers who didn't know what they were doing all turned their attention to Rong Jue, the leader of the officials.

I couldn't help thinking in my heart, the emperor saw that the dragon was indeed in poor health, but the prime minister was able to invite him to the palace. I wonder if there is another important event to be announced.

Gu Shengchang's faction, taking Gu Shengchang as an example, all of them turned gloomy, especially Gu Shengchang, he vaguely noticed something...

Qi Rui turned his head thoughtfully, and when he caught sight of Gu Shengchang's ugly face, a flash of clarity flashed between his brows, and then he was a little worried.

The emperor looked at Rong Jue disapprovingly, and motioned him to speak quickly if he had something to say.

He is really not in good health recently, if it is not supported by Taoist Changqing's elixir, he may wake up less and sleep more.But the emperor dared not let others know, especially the empress, even his beloved prince.

This is probably the suspicion and suspicion of an emperor, and it is also the pathetic reason for the coldness of the emperor's family.At this time, the emperor would rather trust Rong Jue than let the person who can sit on the throne know that he is not in good health.

After a long time, I can't bear to part with this dragon chair.

Rong Jue went out, first bowed his hands to the emperor, and then stood at the forefront, facing all the civil and military officials.

Suddenly pursing his lips, without looking at Gu Shengchang, he raised his voice and said, "Today, I called you here to try an old case."

"Prime Minister? What's the point of showing off? The old case, the old case won't go to the Shuntian Mansion for trial, so why bother His Majesty in the main hall?" Gu Shengchang said coldly. If you look carefully, you will find that he is hiding under his wide sleeves. Faintly trembling hands.

Can't hold back anymore?
Rong Jue snorted and laughed very softly, except for the officials facing him who saw it, the emperor behind him didn't know it.

But he ignored Gu Shengchang's words when he raised his voice, and said, "Don't be in a hurry, my lord. The case that I want to try is related to the tragedy of the imperial court's order to destroy the family. Naturally, His Majesty must intervene in person to get to the bottom of it."

As soon as the words fell, the emperor frowned silently behind him. The old case, the order of the court, and the extermination of the family all reminded him of something... he didn't want to think about it.

"Rong Aiqing, don't play tricks on the discrepancy. Let's get straight to the point." Therefore, the emperor seemed very impatient when he spoke again.

But everyone's complexion changed, and it was taken for granted that they all thought of something like the emperor.

Wen Rencheng was standing at the front of the line, he was the only one in the hall, his eyes were slightly raised, and the corners of his mouth were raised, revealing a happy smile.

Qi Rui clenched his fist, for a moment he didn't know whether to look forward to or worry about the next one, the so-called old case was retried.

"It seems that everyone is very nervous?" Rong Jue raised his eyebrows as before, taking in everyone's expressions, and suddenly changed his tone, "Master Li should be relieved."

Mr. Li?
Who?
Everyone looked at Rong Jue in bewilderment, didn't it happen?

Even Gu Shengchang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, it wasn't Jiang Dingtian...

But soon, he couldn't relax.

"Your Majesty, about two months ago, Li Wancai's whole family was silenced, I think you still remember?" Seeing Rong Jue turn around, he said loudly to the Emperor seriously.

The emperor was slightly relieved, leaning against the dragon chair, he seemed dispirited for a while, and hummed perfunctorily.

"However, Li Wancai did not die, but narrowly escaped death and survived incognito. Not only that, but he also wanted to identify the mastermind behind the scenes."

Rong Jue looked at the emperor, a light smile flashed in his eyes, making the emperor confused, did he die?
In court to identify?

He couldn't help leaning on the dragon chair and coughed, "Where is he now?"
