Your Majesty - This Palace is from modern times

Chapter 43

Not only did the queen mother discover a tunnel in the cold palace that hadn't been blocked in time, but according to eyewitnesses, the man in red who escaped just now was the leader of the Demon Cult who escaped from the secret tunnel—Yin Xueqianxun!
What's worse is that Peiran faked news to help her escape last time and caused catastrophe to Dayin, and was exposed by the second princess, and the deaths of the previous two princesses were all blamed on her!
At that moment, the sky was dark!

Before that, she was still thinking about how to please this mother-in-law, so that she would not hate herself so much.

It's a pity that it will never be realized. From the eyes of the queen mother, it can be seen that no matter how hard she tries, how good she is!Even the queen mother will not like her!

It was not far from the place of detention to the Palace of Longevity, An Xin struggled to move her legs and walked forward under the push of the inner court eunuch.

The scenery along the way is so familiar that it makes people feel sad. I think that not long ago, she and Langye walked this path in full view. At that time, all the subjects of the Yuezhi prostrated themselves on the ground, bowed three times and kowtowed nine times, shouting: Long live the king of Langya, Long live An Xin, at that time she was in high spirits, accepting the worship of all people.

The cycle of life is so ironic.

She became a prisoner in an instant, what kind of trial awaits her?
The open door poured into a cloud of icy fine snow. After the New Year's Eve, the Yueshi Palace ushered in the first clan trial!
When all of them came in, the door slammed shut, and her heart trembled.

There are not many people this time, and those who can participate in this kind of family trial are all relatives of the emperor, who are relatively old and related to the emperor.Of course the queen mother would not be so stupid as to call a group of officials to interrogate why the emperor's woman drank and chatted with a group of men on New Year's Eve!
Bu Zhen sat on the farthest side, and behind him was Qing Yan, a servant and bodyguard.Both looked worriedly at the slowly approaching person.

"Prince, the princess said in a letter..."

"To shut up!"

Qingyan had no choice but to shut up obediently.

Sitting at the highest place was Langye, the queen mother was on the left, and a dozen or so respected clan relatives were on the two sides.

An Xin never raised her head, walked to the center and was kicked severely by someone, and she fell to her knees.

Faced with such oppression, she felt somewhat calm.Boldly staring at the Queen Mother.

The eunuch in charge of law enforcement said loudly, "Princess Anxin, you made friends with the cult members such as the Demon Sect and Bishui Palace, and you let go of the Demon Sect Yin Xue Qianxun privately, causing countless deaths and injuries. You killed the eldest princess and the third princess, and even tried to kill the queen mother to silence you. It is really innocent." Pardonable, can you plead guilty?"

"I didn't kill the eldest princess and the third princess! It was also unintentional to let Xue Qianxun go." She looked at everyone quietly, including Langye.

"Still quibbling!"

The clansmen of all ethnic groups have heard that King Langya favored this girl alone, but at that time the Queen Mother was not there, and it was King Langya who had the final say, and they dared not complain no matter how much they complained, but now the Queen Mother took the initiative to call them over, which undoubtedly gave them A great time to get rid of peace of mind.

There is no other reason. Since she came, His Majesty has never stayed in other people's palaces. King Langya has been on the throne for seven years, but he has no heirs. This undoubtedly seriously threatens the safety of Langya Kingdom.

That is to say, even if she is not guilty today, she still has to squeeze out a death penalty!What's more... the queen mother almost died at the hands of Ye Yanxun today.

The Empress Dowager still has a guilty conscience, and the breath of the armrest of the chair is hard to calm down.

"Ai's family almost died at the hands of that Ye Yanxun, what else do you want to say?"

If you don't mess with him, will he kill you?An Xin felt aggrieved in her heart, but it was useless to say more at this time.

Still the same sentence: "I'm not guilty!"

"Not guilty? The queen mother saw you making friends with people from the cult. Could it be that the queen mother wronged you?" The eunuch who was in charge of the interrogation next to him reminded him eccentrically, and glanced at the high-ranking queen mother from time to time. On Shan Mu's face: "If your master doesn't say it, then you should say it first!"

Shan Mu covered her face with a determined face: "My master is not guilty!" After a lot of wind and rain, even the timid she has developed a good courage.

"Not guilty? So the Ai family wronged you?" The queen mother slapped the armrest violently, her tone aggressive.Recalling the threats made by the man before he left, the queen mother who came over from the strong wind and waves actually shuddered all over, but then again, what is she afraid of, the dignified queen mother of Langya country?
"The tunnel leads directly to the cell where Yin Xueqianxun is being held. The second princess has found witnesses. Your bodyguard Peiran sent someone to send a message to Dayin outside the palace two months ago! You cooperated with Dayin to rescue Yinxueqianxun, but later you were afraid that something might happen. If you were exposed, you would turn against Langya and help Langya, wouldn't you?" The Empress Dowager said in an aggressive tone.

"no!"

"The main story is conclusive, don't you think so?" The queen mother stood up excitedly and threw the evidence in her hand at her.

Open the note, and there are Peiran's notes on it.

It turned out that the sender was afraid of being silenced, so he withheld Peiran's handwritten letter and copied it himself.

After An Xin finished reading, her whole body went cold, and she looked at Langye in horror.

"Langye... no..."

Peiran suddenly leaned down and trembled: "Your Majesty knows that, Peiran is fascinated by ghosts for a while..."

"It was you who sent the letter to Dayin?" Langye suddenly spoke up, and the audience fell silent.

Peiran shuddered and nodded with difficulty.

"Come on, drag him down and behead him!" After receiving the answer, Langye immediately made a decision.

The guards immediately came up to drag Peiran away, and looked at him in horror: "Langye...Langye don't want it! He has no intentions! Langye!"

"Don't drag it away yet!" Langye seemed to have not heard her call, and his voice became a little colder.

Bu Zhen was listening clearly, he understood that Lang Xie was just doing this in order to exchange Pei Ran's life for peace of mind.Thinking about Pei Ran's death, the Queen Mother would not find An Xin to be wrong, at most it would be a crime of negligence!
"Don't say it...it's my fault! I admit it!" Although he was afraid of death, he had brought on this killing and had to bear the consequences.

"Don't... Langye, he didn't mean it, you have to believe me!" She had never been so humble before, and she kowtowed to the Queen Mother several times in a row: "Queen Mother, Queen Mother, trust me, he is still a child, and he can't do anything wrong." Don't understand! He doesn't understand anything!"

The queen mother smiled slightly, lowered her body and said pityingly: "The Ai family can also see that this child doesn't understand anything. It seems that someone ordered it! Just now Ai family saw you and your group happy there, is it for celebration?"

After finishing speaking, the queen mother looked at Langye with ulterior motives.

"I said that Peiran will be beheaded, can't you hear me?" Langxie was suddenly furious, without even looking at the Queen Mother, he gave the order directly.The guards didn't dare to neglect any longer, and dragged Peiran away!

"Don't kill him!" An Xin rushed forward, hugged Peiran's body tightly, and still looked at Langye unwillingly: "Langye... Please don't kill him..."

"Bold, are you calling His Majesty's name?"

At this moment, the eunuch had already stepped forward with a stick in his hand, and greeted An Xin back without hesitation.

At this moment, Bu Zhen gave a look, Qing Yan stepped forward immediately, and the stick that was supposed to hit An Xin's back stopped in the air.

Bu Zhen stepped forward slowly, and said calmly: "Your Majesty Langya Kingdom, should you clarify the matter before making a decision?"

"Buzhen! It's your business to make friends with the emperor in private. As for this woman, it's a private matter of my Langya country, and it's not up to you, an outsider, to take care of it!" The queen mother stood up and said coldly.

Bu Zhen didn't want to intervene at first, but just now he stopped when he saw the stick coming down, but he didn't want to be silenced by the Queen Mother!

"Buzhen, don't worry about it, you'd better go! I'll be fine!" Involved one after another, she didn't want to let the people around her get hurt because of her... The queen mother made it clear to find fault, and Langye was in front of so many people. Can't fully cover up either!She can see clearly
Langye glanced at Buzhen, and said in a deep voice: "Prince Buzhen is so tired, you should go down and rest!"

Bu Zhen understands that at this time, one must not speak out in defense again, if it causes public outrage, the bad luck is still at ease!So he got up to say goodbye, and before leaving, he took a deep look!
"Prince, the princess said in the letter that if you have someone you like, you can snatch her to Xixia. Why didn't you snatch such a good opportunity just now?" Qingyan followed behind Buzhen, complaining unwillingly.The opportunity just now was so good, so what if you snatch it?

Bu Zhen glanced at Qing Yan coldly: "Is it yours if you snatch it?"

"But I don't think the queen mother will let her go. Prince, you don't know. Just now, the eunuch has martial arts. I almost missed the stick... Prince... Prince..."

Bu Zhen stepped forward quickly, thinking in his heart, he must find a good way to save An Xin!

Can't let go, can't let go, if you let go, Peiran will die!An Xin hugged Peiran tightly as if she was in a tug-of-war with death!

Langye never said a word for her from the beginning to the end... Maybe it is easy to die in the palace, but Peiran is different!He is still so young...so innocent...why does he have to die?
"Relax!" Langye shouted angrily.

An Xin knelt on the ground, tears slid down her cheeks: "Is it true that if you repent, you can forgive me?"

"Your Majesty has always been very clear about rewards and punishments. If we spare this woman, what will the people of the world think of our Langya Kingdom? How will we unify it in the future?" Seeing the emperor's wavering, the clansmen rushed forward to stop him.

"That's right, the harem is not allowed to engage in politics, not to mention that this woman has not been canonized yet..." Langxie cast a cold glance at the following sentence, and it became lower and lower, almost inaudible.

An Xin saw that Langxie hadn't moved for a long time, her heart was getting heavier and her hands were getting colder, and she spoke again with a trembling voice: "What are you going to do?"

"You have no jokes!"

Although the voice was blunt, but the tone was full of unavoidable difficulties. If Peiran did not die, then all the sins would be borne on her. Even if she was the emperor, what was death of Peiran compared to this?
"He's unintentional..."

"Relax! I'm already tolerant, if you don't give up, I'll do it with you!" Langxie, who was driven into a hurry, was full of majesty.

An Xin blinked and suddenly understood a truth.
