Chapter 474: The Cuckold

"Confrontation before the emperor, since I didn't summon my palace, I won't show up." The main reason is that Xie Xiaoyu has been beaten to death for the crime. If Yun Fenghuang rushes over, it will only appear to be unreasonable, and the subsequent confession will be unavoidable. believed to be her instigation.

The imperial concubine ordered in a deep voice, "If this is the case, immediately ask the steady and smart attendant in front of Brother Shiba to go to a palace gate to call for grievances..."

Above the temple, Xie Xiaoyu’s crime of killing his wife and child was well established, but who knew, a guard came to report that there was a servant in front of the palace gate claiming to be Xie Xiaoyu’s driver. Come to complain for the master!

Now the servant arrived at the hall, kowtowed and saluted, and said: "Your Majesty, my lords, the master of this old servant, I have been wronged!"

The people on Mrs. Gu's side were all laughed angrily: "A mere servant, how dare you talk nonsense in front of the mountain of ironclad evidence?!"

"The master of this old slave did kill Xie Jiang, but the reason is definitely not for the so-called marriage to a noble family!" This servant followed Xie Xiyu from the battlefield, and has seen big scenes. Don't panic, said in a deep voice, "It's because... because she is sorry for the old slave's master!"

Without waiting for others to ask questions, he turned to Xie Xiaoyu, who was lying limp on the ground, and said sadly, "My lord, you are confused! I know you are young, you want to save face, and there are some things that you would rather die than spread! But not to mention that you are not the only one now. As for human matters, if this crime is committed, teach the imperial concubine and the son-in-law how to deal with themselves in the future, and say that after my Xie family suffered a catastrophe, only you, the son of the fourth house, survived! If you lose your reputation, you are called How do people in the world view the deceased master and his wife who doesn't know where?!"

Xie Xiaoyu only said that today's test would not be passed no matter what, she was in a daze, hearing these words, she raised her head in a daze, but she didn't know how to explain it.

Seeing this situation, Cui Wan frowned slightly, and had no choice but to stand up and pass the ladder to the old servant instead of Xie Xiaoyu: "But I don't know what's going on here?"

"Responding to my lord, Xie Jiang... Although Xie Jiang is the married wife of my young master, but... the so-called eldest son born to him is actually...not my young master's bloodline at all!" When the servant said this, the monarch and his ministers were all a little numb.

At once……

how to say?

The old son of Longpinghou was not his own, and his concubine Hongxing cheated; Xie Xiaoyu's first wife's eldest son was not his own, and his wife Hongxing cheated...

this? ? ?

The courtiers of the country, what happened to the green cloud cover?

Or do you think everyone is an idiot? ? ?

Cui Wan's face was also a little uneasy, but at this time, he could only go on with his words. After all, his daughter was married, and his granddaughter was born. Abandoning Xie Xiaoyu at this time, wouldn't it be a loss for a daughter and a sum of money? Dowry in?

The most important thing is that Xie Xiaoyu's backer, Yun Fenghuang, has not yet collapsed, so no matter what Cui Wan thinks in his heart, he will still help Xie Xiaoyu after all.

Seeing that Xie Xiaoyu hadn't recovered yet, she had no choice but to continue talking: "There is such a thing?! It's just that this Xie Jiang family is my son-in-law's first cousin after all, so why would he do such a thing?"

"It's all Gu's fault!" The old servant looked at Mrs. Gu with hatred in his eyes, clenched his fists, and said with a sneer, "So that Your Majesty and all the adults will know: Xie Jiang is the direct relative of Mrs. Jiang, my mistress. My niece, speaking of which, my mistress watched her grow up, and she really knows the truth. When she was in the Northland, she was a very appropriate person, even though she was a bit impatient. Otherwise, my mistress would I will not promise her to the young master!"

After all, Yun Fenghuang's purpose was to pick Xie Xiaoyu out, and he didn't want to offend the Jiang family.

It is enough to frame one Xie Jiang family, and there is no need to discredit the entire Jiang family.

At this moment, the old servant emphasized that Xie Jiang's family was fine, but, "But after he came to the imperial capital with my son, because of the imperial concubine, many people came to flatter him. Originally, Xie Jiang was still thinking of the imperial concubine's warning. , not daring to make too much publicity... But with the repeated invitations from the wealthy family, Xie Jiang's family was not affectionate at first, and later... Later, he was attracted by all kinds of extravagant things, and couldn't help but join in the fun!"

"Originally, this is nothing, after all, although the imperial concubine does not like to make public..."

Hearing this, several courtiers showed a look of unbearable reading.

There is one thought in mind: If the imperial concubine doesn't like to make publicity, why did the court and harem treat her so loudly? ? ?

It's just that the old servant opened his eyes and said nonsense: "But after all, Xie Jiang has a blood relationship with the imperial concubine and empress, and she is so old, it is not easy for the imperial concubine to say anything about her. I thought it was just a gathering of female relatives, so I ignored it."

"Who knows..." He changed his face in an instant, and said with a wry smile, "Who knew, Xie Jiang's family came from a small family, and how did he know the methods of those high-ranking families, such as Gu's?! Once, She was invited by a lady from the Gu family to go to the theater, smelled the incense, and fell asleep without knowing it, and when she woke up, there was a man lying beside her..."

Old Mrs. Gu was furious: "Blood! You..."

"Everything that this old slave said is true, dare to swear to God!" The old servant followed Xie Xiyu for many years, and after several life and death, although his status was low, he was not lacking in courage. Facing the wrath of Old Master Gu, he was not afraid at all, and instead raised his voice , and shouted confidently, "These are all after the Xie Jiang family went with that evil, my son tortured Xie Jiang's left and right and learned about it! The offshoot of the Gu family has no grievances or enmity with my son, how could they do such a thing?! It can be seen that they were instigated by Uncle Longping's mansion, but to catch Xie Jiang's handle, so as to set up eyes and ears by the young master and the imperial concubine's side!"

"Just ask the imperial concubine and Empress Xie Jiang who grew up together and love the same direct sisters, how could she doubt Xie Jiang's!"

"It's natural and clear. Although the Xie Jiang family was intimidated by the Gu family, and worried that after the incident, he would lose his reputation and dare not speak up, so he would be manipulated by the Gu family. However, my son spent time with her day and night, and finally found clues... Let me ask, who in the world can tolerate such humiliation?!"

"It's also because my son is young, he regards such a thing as a great shame, and refuses to say anything!"

"Just show off quietly with Xie Jiang, let Xie Jiang take advantage of the postpartum kung fu to commit suicide, pretend to die of dystocia, so as to cover up for both parties."

"After all, the Jiang family is also my young master's natal family. My young master hates Xie Jiang's disobedience of women and visits everywhere so that there is such a disaster, but he doesn't want to affect the Jiang family!"

"Besides, because Xie Jiang's family is dead, there is no evidence for his death. My son is young and tender, and he can't save face. He refuses to ask the imperial concubine to help him get justice, but he himself can't argue with the Longping uncle's mansion, so he can only bear it in silence!"

"I don't want the Gu family to be ambitious, to make another plan after one plan fails, and to slander my son in public for killing his wife and son!"

"Don't even think about it. My son is the brother of the same father and mother of the imperial concubine. With the support of the imperial concubine, why be afraid of any noble son?! But why bother to marry a noble daughter and murder a wife? Let alone, my son When I was in the clan, I loved the children the most, but if the Xie Jiang clan's heirs are my son's own flesh and blood, my son would not have time to take care of them, so how could he do anything wrong?"

He immediately brought up the matter of Xie Fuwang, "This is the flesh and blood of my ten sons, and it is just my nephew. Almost all the rewards I got belong to the name of the young master! My son treats his nephew so kindly, let alone his own son?!"

At the moment when the words were spoken, Xie Xiaoyu finally came back to his senses, and said, "Uncle Zhong, there is no need to say any more! You have the face to speak, but I... I have no face to listen!"

After speaking, he raised his sleeves to cover his face, as if he couldn't bear to look back.

It's just that everyone knows the truth.

This Xie Xiyu looked like a young child in the temple, if it wasn't for the brother of the imperial concubine, how could it be worthwhile for someone like the Gu family to personally report the scandal against him?

If it is true that the Xie Jiang family gave birth to an evil species, how could Xie Xiaoyu not tell it just now?

Right now, it was the old servant who came to call for grievances. It could not be said that it was Concubine Min in the harem who heard the news and sent someone to help.

There was a moment of silence in the court hall. Old Master Gu squinted his eyes and said, "You keep saying that Mrs. Xie Jiang was seduced and raped by a woman from a branch of my family, and even became pregnant with an evil seed, but you don't know when and where this happened? What proof?"

The old servant said without hesitation for a while, and then sneered: "Such a scandal, my son has a good face, even the imperial concubine and empress are hiding it, so it is possible to keep a special certificate? Even the few who served the Xie Jiang family Maid, I've dealt with it too! Now it's true that there is no proof of death, but the sky has eyes, good and evil are rewarded, and Gu's deception is too much, sooner or later there will be retribution!"

...I have to say, this old servant is much more useful than Xie Xiaoyu.

At least looking at his aura, without Xie Xiaoyu's collapse before, he really thought his master had suffered a great humiliation.

But as long as you calm down and think about it, you will know that he is groundless.

Therefore, the expressions of all the ministers are very delicate.

It has to be said that Concubine Min's response was really quick, and even the servants she found were very reliable.

But……

Brother is really incompetent!

Fortunately, Xie's other difficult master, son-in-law Xie Wuzheng was not present.

Otherwise... Even if Mrs. Gu comes prepared, it's really hard to say whether she can survive the fight.

The old man Gu was very calm, ignored the old servant, and only bowed to Dan Chi: "Your Majesty, please be aware of the details."

Several important ministers looked at each other, how could Chunjia not know what they could see?

Leaving aside who was responsible for the cause of Longpinghou's death, Xie Xiaoyu is 100% murdering his wife and son.

Everyone is very clear about this, and so is Mrs. Gu.

So he just clarified the ins and outs, produced evidence, and now asked the emperor to make the decision... To put it bluntly, let the emperor choose.

The main palace, which has a righteous name and has just lost the Marquis of Longping, and the Xuanqing Palace, which was born in a humble family and did not do much for the emperor, but is not less honored but favored.

Who will the emperor choose?

Is it to deal with it impartially, or to favor one's own love?

All the officials didn't pay attention to Xie Xiaoyu's master and servant's performance, they held their breath and waited for the verdict from the throne.
