I'm dressed as the villain of the novel

Chapter 137
After the emperor said this, Cao Xiong immediately bowed to accept the order, led the two attendants to put away all the impeachment memorials, and then came to Cui Cen with a smile, and said: "Cui Xiang, Your Majesty ordered, please Cui Xiang look carefully."

After speaking, he waved his hand and ordered someone to move a low table, and put all the impeachment memorials on the low table, then smiled sinisterly, and turned back to Xin Zhao's side again.

At the same time, the Empress Dowager Zhao Cui saw that all the courtiers and her nephew were competing to impeach the second elder brother Cui Cen. Although she had expected it, she couldn't help feeling panic.

I really complied with my nephew's words before, it is really "the prosperity is booming, and the death is sudden". Thinking about my second elder brother, relying on the means and the late emperor's favor, it can be said that he has power in the government and the public, and he promises everything.

But now, in the blink of an eye, everyone betrayed their relatives, almost to the point where everyone got it and punished them.

Even she herself had to stab a knife with a sharp knife.

Hearing the emperor asking himself, he came back to his senses, calmed down, nodded and said: "Your Majesty was young back then, so it's only natural that you don't know why, even Aijia and the late emperor were kept in the dark It wasn't until a few days ago that descendants of the Lin family found the Ai family for some reason, that they didn't know there was something hidden in it."

He sighed softly as he spoke, and then said to the emperor again: "Speaking of which, among the descendants of the Lin family, there is only one person, His Majesty should have seen it."

"Oh, I've seen it too, I don't know who it is?"

Zhao Xin and Zhao Cuishi both opened their eyes and talked nonsense, but they both looked serious, and their expressions were not unnatural.

Although everyone in the hall felt strange, why did the people of the Lin family seek the Queen Mother instead of the Emperor?

But no one spoke.

It's just that some people's eyes are a little dim.

On the contrary, Cui Cen didn't seem to have heard it, and actually sat on the floor next to the short bench, flipping through the memorials one by one, sneering from time to time, with a very disdainful expression.

Such a move naturally attracted the attention of many people.

But Xin Zhao didn't seem to see it, and didn't say anything, and the others had no choice but to turn a blind eye.

But the queen mother said again: "This person is a beautiful girl named Lin Yuyan in Your Majesty's Chuxiu Palace. She also has an elder brother named Lin Yuchen, and her mother Nangong Yanran. They also came with Ai's family today. Could Your Majesty please allow them to present themselves in the palace?"

When Zhao Cuishi said this, there was another slight commotion in the hall, especially when everyone heard the name Nangong Yanran, many people's expressions were slightly turbulent.

If this is not the Golden Palace, I am afraid that many people will whisper to each other.

It is really that this name was too famous back then, and she was known as the number one beauty in Daqin.

Even Xin Zhao had heard of it.

But at this moment, Xin Zhao suddenly had a thought, Nangong Yanran, Nangong...how should it be called, Lin Nangong?

It doesn't seem to be smooth.

Hey, this is really a problem. If two single surnames are combined and easy to call, Zhao Cui's and Wang Li's, if two compound surnames are also easy to pronounce, Sima Nangong's and Linghu Weichi's.

But this woman with a single surname and a combination of multiple surnames doesn't seem to be easy to call.

"cough……"

Xin Zhao coughed lightly, cleared his throat, stopped the divergent thinking, frowned slightly and said, "Since this is the case, there is no other way. Cao Xiong, Lin Yuyan, a descendant of the Xuanlin family, and his mother, his brother, went to the palace."

Cao Xiong led the order to go down.

Zhao Xincai asked again: "Lin Yuyan, I only remember that Cui Xiang had a adopted daughter who was selected into the palace a few days ago, it seems that her name is Cui Yuyan, but I don't remember that there is also a beautiful girl named Lin Yuyan."

Seeing that he pretended to be confused while pretending to understand, Zhao Cuishi didn't know that he was deliberately disgusting Cui Cen, and at the same time pointed it out.

But he could only cooperate with a smile and said: "Your Majesty, these two people are one and two, and two are one, Lin Yuyan is the original Cui Yuyan, otherwise how could she sue the Ai family, so there is no need for the Ai family to be embarrassed. "

"Ha ha."

How could Xin Zhao fail to understand what she meant, but he just chuckled and suddenly said, "So that's how it is."

Sui turned to Cui Cen and asked, "Cui Xiang, I wonder if you know about this?"

Cui Cen was still flipping through those memorials, but his eyes were clearly distracted.

I don't know if it's because of Lin Yuyan or Nangong Yanran.

In short, the calm state of mind he worked so hard to maintain has become chaotic.

Hearing this, he threw away a memorial in his hand, took a deep breath, cupped his hands and said solemnly: "Qi Zuo Your Majesty, I have already known about it."

Zhao Xin saw that his answer was straightforward, so he couldn't help but asked with a half-smile: "In this case, why did you adopt Lin's daughter in the family?"

Cui Cen suddenly smiled when he heard the words, and said slightly sarcastically: "Your Majesty's words, I do not understand one thing."

Without waiting for Zhao Xin to ask him to ask a question, he asked directly: "Since Your Majesty doesn't know about Lin's case, why do you want to ask this question?"

"..."

The whole court is quiet.

Xin Zhao was also slightly taken aback, he didn't expect this old thing to think clearly, he caught such a small language gap, and wanted to slap him in the face.

Xin Zhao didn't panic, he laughed.

"Why did Xiang Cui ask the question knowingly? Didn't he hear what the Queen Mother said? If not, she wouldn't have to be in trouble. It's just that the law of the country, justice and family affection are hard to choose."

Then he bowed to the queen mother Zhao Cui and said: "I am here to thank the queen mother on behalf of the court and the people of the world.

Abandoning the small righteousness and taking the big righteousness, everyone knows, everyone knows, but few people can do it.

The Empress Dowager understands the righteousness deeply, and does not hide the righteousness for the sake of small righteousness, so that Lin's grievances can be cleared up, and I, all the nobles and the people of the world will not be deceived forever, all of which are the benevolence of the Empress Dowager.

The Empress Dowager is indeed a role model for concubines! "

As soon as Xin Zhao said this, all the ministers were respectful and bowed at the same time.

They said in unison: "The Empress Dowager is benevolent!"

At this moment, Zhao Cui's mood was very complicated, he was helpless, but also had a trace of indescribable solemnity and excitement.

Standing up involuntarily, he glanced back at Xin Zhao and the ministers, "Your Majesty and the ministers have exaggerated what they said. Aijia is just adhering to the teachings of sages and sages, and can't bear the sages of the late emperor to be stained under the nine springs."

After saying this, even she herself couldn't help but believe it a little bit, she really had a sacred feeling of killing relatives with righteousness.

From this moment on, even if she died, she would not tell the emperor's previous arrangements.

Even if anyone doubted it, he would undoubtedly be her enemy.

Xin Zhao smiled slightly, then turned to look at Cui Cen again, "Cui Cen, do you have any questions?"

"Nothing."

Cui Cen's eyes were also a bit complicated. He didn't believe a word of Xin Zhao and the Queen Mother, but at this moment he really saw Xin Zhao's methods, this kind of subtle control over people's hearts.

At the same time, he also thought of the hint that Xin Zhao sent to him last night, his eyes glanced at the confused people in the hall, and he couldn't help sneering in his heart, "Do you people really think that the purpose of the emperor's court meeting this time is the truth? As naive as that?"

Then he withdrew his eyes and said indifferently: "I have no doubts."

"So can you answer my question?"

Xin Zhao smiled.

"There is no other, it's just my mother!"

Cui Cen replied calmly.

Everyone couldn't help being stunned when they heard the words. At the same time, there was an inexplicable feeling in their hearts. Although bloody, it was also understandable.

While the hall was quiet, there was a sound of gnashing teeth outside the hall.

Everyone turned their heads and saw that Cao Xiong had already led the people standing outside the hall.
