The reborn king is ferocious

Chapter 201 Can't Wait
"I think it is very possible that he is really moved. Otherwise, if you are afraid of Empress Xiao, why don't you go directly to Empress Xiao to save face? In this round, Empress Xiao is currently winning. However, it depends on each Whoever is more able to win the king's heart will be able to laugh proudly to the end."

"By the way, Eunuch Deng has already found out the clues, and we will have a good one tomorrow." The corner of Fu Lingtian's lips twitched, and he smiled "insidiously".

In order to try the case of Fang Xing's bizarre death in the palace, Eunuch Deng had to bite the bullet and interrogate the people who hadn't left the palace one by one.

The vast majority of people have witnesses, proving that they have never left their seats, even if they occasionally leave, they will be accompanied by others.

Therefore, as more people were released from the palace, Eunuch Deng became more anxious.

Finally, things are progressing.

A servant girl serving his wife at the servant of the Ministry of Rites said that she once saw a palace maid next to Princess Changping come back from the outside in a panic.

Grasping this point, Eunuch Deng finally found out that the maid was Mei Hong, the eldest maid next to Princess Changping, and immediately took Mei Hong down.

As a result, Xu You'er was placed under house arrest, waiting for the results of the interrogation.

"How did you find Fang Xing's body and come up with such an arrangement?" Luo Qingchen asked Fu Lingtian.

Mei Hong passed the news to Concubine Jia through Luo Qingchen that Xu Youer and Jian Yu took the opportunity to have a private meeting. At that time, Concubine Jia didn't say anything, and Luo Qingchen secretly asked Fu Lingtian to pay attention to Fang Xing and their movements.

Later, when he heard that Fang Xing was dead, Luo Qingchen thought that Fu Lingtian should know the inside story, and he must have tampered with the corpse to cause trouble on purpose.

It's just that it was reckless for Fu Lingtian to do so.Luo Qingchen had an ominous premonition in her heart, that Xu You'er would not be brought down so easily.

Fu Lingtian asked strangely: "Why is it me? Isn't it you?"

The two were stunned. Since it wasn't them, there was only one person who knew about this matter and had the ability to do such tricks.

Concubine Jia... She actually set up this game quietly.

At first glance, it seemed that all this was in line with Fang Xing's habits, and after a thorough investigation, it was easy to lead out Xu You'er.

Everyone knew that Xu You'er didn't like Fang Xing, and she put off this marriage as long as she could, and she didn't look good when she saw Fang Xing. When he died, Princess Changping was probably the happiest.

This is indeed a good way to get revenge on Xu You'er.

However, this not only shows that Concubine Jia still can't trust Luo Qingchen at the critical moment, and if she plans well, she may not be able to succeed.

Both Fu Lingtian and Luo Qingchen realized that this matter had deviated from their plan, and Concubine Jia obviously couldn't wait.

Fu Lingtian said: "Since someone wants to come out and sing, we'll wait and see what happens. Anyway, we have a few good plays to watch, and this one is not bad."

Luo Qingchen agreed, let's enjoy Mrs. Liu's performance first.

After Xu Hongwen escorted Mrs. Liu home, he put her under strict surveillance. Not only did he change and dismiss everyone around her, he also ordered his cronies not to allow anyone to approach Mrs. Liu.

He told the people in the mansion that Mrs. Liu was crazy, she was talking nonsense, and everything she said was unbelievable, and no news was allowed to leak out.

At this time, Xu Shangyong and Xu Shangzhi happened to be going out with the prince, so Xu Hongwen could take advantage of it.

Mrs. Liu yelled, slapped, threatened and begged in the dusty utility room, but no one paid any attention to her, let alone seeing Xu Hongwen's face.

After two days of hunger, Mrs. Liu's voice became hoarse and her momentum became weak, and she knew that Xu Hongwen was determined.

Finally, the door opened, and Mrs. Liu felt a glimmer of hope again.

I saw a few sturdy women walking in with bowls of soup and medicine.

"What do you want to do?" Mrs. Liu stepped back vigilantly.

The women didn't answer, and one of them ordered: "Catch her, open her mouth, be quick."

Mrs. Liu realized that the bowl of medicine was definitely not a good thing, and desperately pushed away to catch her mother-in-law, trying to escape, but bumped into the people blocking the door.

Like a devil, Xu Hongwen approached Mrs. Liu step by step: "Where are you going, Ma'am? You are sick, drink the medicine obediently, and when you recover, you can go wherever you want."

Mrs. Liu leaned against the wall in horror and shook her head: "No, I'm not sick. Master, I was wrong. It's because we have been married for many years, I gave birth to two sons for you, and my natal family has sponsored you so much, don't Do this to me."

Xu Hongwen let out a long sigh, and said sadly: "Madam, I remember all your kindness. I treat your illness for your own good. Look, you are so crazy that you still refuse to take medicine. What will happen to me in the future?" Explain to father-in-law and the children?"

When the women saw it, they rushed forward, some grabbed their hands, pressed their feet, grabbed their hair... forcefully poured the medicine into Mrs. Liu's mouth.

Mrs. Liu struggled hard, staring at Xu Hongwen, wishing she could eat him alive.

But Xu Hongwen behind the crowd showed a sneer on his face, turned around and left heartlessly.

Brown concoction dripped down Mrs. Liu's mouth, and the wives tightly covered her mouth with their hands, watching Mrs. Liu finally swallow all the concoction before letting go.

The women had finished their task and closed the door again.

Mrs. Liu stuck her fingers into her throat, trying to spit out the medicine, but failed after a while.

She laughed wildly with disheveled hair: "Xu Hongwen, you have such a vicious heart! Just wait, you will be punished one day!"

The two servants outside guarding the door curled their lips disapprovingly, and continued to be loyal to their duties as if they didn't hear it.

"What, Mrs. Liu has lost her mind?" When Xu You'er heard the news, it was as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on her head.

The little eunuch who delivered the message kept looking around anxiously, afraid of being discovered: "Princess, the message slave has already arrived, can you..."

He made a gesture of leaving, and Xu You'er waved his hand impatiently and said: "You servants, when this princess gains power, every one of you wants to be noticed, but it's just a little suspicious, just like avoiding snakes, insects, rats and ants, For fear of getting sparks, get out of here, snob."

The little eunuch slipped out in disgrace, very angry: "Huh, if it wasn't for the sake of money, who would care about you now? That is, I am showing kindness, so what kind of airs do I have to be a princess? The father in the palace doesn't care , the adoptive father outside ignores you, and you will not know how to behave when you see it."

Xu You'er is really going to be caught blind now, Mrs. Liu can't count on it, Jian Yu can't get in, Xu Hongwen is safe...

How could that Mei Hong be seen so accidentally?

Empress Xiao couldn't possibly help her at this moment, Xu You'er thought she was doomed?
With Mei Hong, the trial of the case went smoothly. As soon as Eunuch Deng was about to be sentenced, Mei Hong was so frightened that she told everything.

She said she found that Princess Changping was missing, so she went to look for it, but halfway she met Fang Xing who was also looking for Xu Youer.

When the two separated, Mei Hong saw that Fang Xing was going to the yard next to her, and after she searched elsewhere, she didn't see Xu Youer, and when she came back, she saw Xu Youer disappearing from Fang Xing in a panic. Come in that direction...

Of course, these words are half-truths and half-false, Mei Hong is still counting on the benefits from Concubine Jia.

Eunuch Deng ordered people to go to the place where Mei Hong confessed to, but they didn't make much effort. Several eunuchs came back and said that they found traces of Fang Xing who had been buried in the cracks in the rockery.

The person who checked Fang Xing and the maid's body also reported that Fang Xing and the court lady had not had an affair because Fang Xing had a hidden disease.

Now things are even more confusing.

Eunuch Deng didn't dare to speculate, and reported the results of the trial to Empress Xiao.

After discussing with Deng Gonggong, Empress Xiao personally arraigned Mei Hong.

"You said you saw Princess Changping coming from the direction where Young Master Fang left, which means you didn't see Young Master Fang and Princess Changping together?" Xiao said expressionlessly.

Mei Hong was already trembling with fear from Empress Xiao's aura: "Yes, this servant did not see them together."

"When you saw Young Master Fang, he was alone, right?" Empress Xiao said coldly.

"Yes." Mei Hong realized that Concubine Jia promised her a lot of money, and said that she would leave the palace after it was done. These looked beautiful, but when the opponent became Empress Xiao, she regretted it so much.

"Everyone, if there is a conflict between a princess and an adult man, whoever is stronger will be able to restrain the other?" Empress Xiao asked the jury officials beside her.

Do you even need to think about it?No matter how bad Fang Xing was, he was still a man. Although Xu You'er knew how to work hard, but the banquet was so lively, she couldn't kill Fang Xing at once, drag the body away, and then kill a court lady to set up another suicide.

"Obviously, someone is lying about this matter." Xiao Hou looked at Mei Hong.

Her body trembled even more: "No slaves."

She lured Fang Xing over on purpose, except for this point, Mei Hong is really not talking nonsense.

"Come here, let me punish you." Empress Xiao didn't listen to Mei Hong's cry of injustice and swore, first with a stick, then with a whip, Mei Hong lost her human form.

"Think about it clearly. If you say it, I can consider keeping you as a dead body. If you dare to bully the king again, I will give you a lingering death sentence. Do you think it's worth it?" Empress Xiao It's very casual.

In her eyes, the lives of these slaves are no more than ants.

Mei Hong was stunned.

Didn't she take refuge in Concubine Jia?Having done so many things for Concubine Jia and received so many rewards, I thought I was Concubine Jia's.

She clenched her mouth tightly and did not let go, because she hoped that Concubine Jia could come forward to save her.

But Concubine Jia is nowhere to be seen, so is she going to die here?

"No, empress, please listen to the servant girl. When Princess Changping was still in the prime minister's mansion, she was defiled by Mr. Fang Xing. She has always held a grudge. She told the servant herself that she wished to kill Mr. Fang. The servant does not know that Mr. Does Princess Ping still have helpers, but what this servant girl said is all the truth, please let me know." Mei Hong had no way out at this time, she only hoped that Xu You'er could be proved guilty in order to save her life.

Empress Xiao glanced at Eunuch Deng, and Eunuch Deng stepped forward and said sternly: "You are such a slave! Master Fang Xing is cheating on Princess Changping? Even if he has the heart, he doesn't have the strength."
