Chapter 667
He looked at the person in front of him coldly: "Lord Zhao is the right deputy and the censor. He can't even see the situation clearly. He wouldn't really believe the nonsense that someone can protect your people? Xie Gong has returned to the court. If it weren't for the kindness of Long Live Lord , now it is not the three clans that are being punished, but the nine clans that are being punished as your hall said!"

I thought it was the time of the first emperor, and he would be safe and sound even if he killed an emperor's heir. How naive, not to mention Long Live Lord, Xie Gong and other civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty could eat him!
After finishing speaking, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment said to his back: "Come here, bring up that corpse and let Mr. Zhao identify the corpse."

Zhao Zhong suddenly came back to his senses, with an ominous premonition in his heart, he looked at the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, grabbed the iron railing, and stood up: "Corpse, what corpse?"

"Some people accidentally found a corpse and reported it to the Shuntian Mansion. Someone in the Shuntian Mansion has dealt with your son of the Zhao family. It looks like your son. Let you identify it."

Zhao Zhong's eyes widened, he held onto the iron bars tightly, and kept denying: "No, no, how could it be..." That man promised him...

He held a trace of luck in his heart, always thinking that the man would not lie to him.

His current high-ranking officials and rich salary were all given by that person, and he still had a handle in that person's hands, and in the case of the emperor's heir, he had been used as a gunman and put in the light, and that person had been hiding in the dark. Behind the scenes, nothing was left behind, and he had nothing to do with that person.

After the Dongchuang incident, no matter what, he will not end well. Instead of tearing up his face with that person, it is better to let that person try his best to save his people, and only kill him, not to mention that his son was entrusted to that person. Protect his son.

But now why is his Zhao family surrounded by the barbarians?It's even worse than ransacking the family and exterminating the clan!

The Minister of the Ministry of punishment asked people to carry the body to him.

When he saw the corpse clearly, his hope was completely shattered. He cried out sadly through the iron gate towards the corpse, how his son was like this, crying out blood.

In the end, he was full of sadness, raised his eyes, his grief turned into raging hatred, and said: "Lord Lu, tell me, did Xue Ping kill my son?"

Hand over the person to Xue Ping properly, who else can there be besides him!
The Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment said contemptuously: "Presumptuous, don't slander Uncle Loyalty, miss you and my colleagues, let's forget it this time."

Zhao Zhong asked in shock, "Uncle Zhongyi? Who?"

The Secretary of the Ministry of Justice did not reply to him, but turned to the human who carried the corpse and said, "Since the identity is confirmed, it is enough to report the death of Mr. Zhao."

After speaking, he flicked his sleeves and left the cell.

"Xue Ping, Uncle Zhongyi?" Zhao Zhong muttered to himself, his face full of disbelief.

In just a split second, he understood everything.

After understanding it, he described it as crazy, crying and laughing loudly: "Hahaha, Uncle Zhongyi, you are so loyal, you are so Xue Ping, hahahaha... promise to protect my son, and you treat me like this? How could I believe that?" You, I'm so stupid, hahahaha..."

Xue Ping is an extremely human minister, using the life of his three Zhao clans to fulfill Xue Ping's name of loyalty, this is Xue Ping's promise!
Ridiculous, so ridiculous!
At the end of crying and laughing, he was like a fierce ghost climbing up from Shura's hell: "If you are not benevolent, I will be unrighteous!"

Making up his mind, he yelled in the direction where the Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice disappeared: "Master Lu, I recruited, I recruited, I was ordered by Xue Ping to sue Xu Hu and frame Concubine Xu De, if you don't believe me, go and investigate Yan Yukun!" , Wei Guang..."

The Minister of the Ministry of Justice, who seemed to have left, was hidden not far away and did not leave.

Hearing Zhao Zhong's words, he slowly smiled, and said to the people around him: "Bring those people over here, and lock them up around him, and let them all listen."

"Yes." The person next to him replied.

Someone came in a hurry: "My lord, someone from the Inner Guards Department is here."

Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice raised his legs and left: "Where is the person, lead the way quickly."

What he wants is here!

Huaqing Hall.

Concubine Xue Gui, whose feet were removed, sat at the table with no trace of joy on her face.

Since she was grounded that day, she became much less clear to the naked eye, and she was also much quieter. The calmness on her face was terrifying, making it hard to see what she was thinking.

During the confinement period, the entire Huaqing Hall was dead silent, and everyone dared not show their spirits, for fear of getting into trouble.

Today's decree came, Caixia wanted to pick some auspicious words to flatter her, but she just said "Congratulations to the empress", when she saw the empress gave her a cold look, which made her feel trembling, and swallowed the words back. Dare to say another word.

Such a noble concubine made her instinctively feel terrible.

At this time, she guards the inner and outer rooms, and the empress does not allow others to step inside.

In the inner room, Concubine Xue raised her catkin and caressed a painting on the table. The painting was old and had been there for some years.

Envy appeared in her eyes, and she looked at the painting quietly.

On the painting is a plump, handsome and introverted young man, riding on a tall horse, his eyes are cold and clear, staring at the person outside the painting, his face is very similar to that of the emperor, but younger.

This is the crown prince that she caught a glimpse of back then. It was painted by her when she was in the boudoir, and was brought into the palace and kept as a treasure.

This is the person she has always admired. Why is she so heartless and cruel to her? She was framed and refused to even give her a chance to explain.

She was full of worries, but no one could tell.

"Your Majesty, there are people coming from the Hall of Stars, Long Live God has given you many treasures, and they are shocking for you, how should we deal with them?" A voice came from outside the inner room door.

A gleam flashed in her eyes, and she couldn't help asking: "What else did you say? Who passed the decree? Why didn't you tell me?"

"It's the decree delivered by the eunuch from the Palace of Stars. He told you that you were frightened. The Lord specially explained that you don't need to accept the decree in person. He said that you were wronged and shocked you."

She suddenly felt better, and said unwillingly: "So there is nothing else to say?"

"No."

In an instant, her eyes dimmed again, and after a while, she said calmly: "Put it in the warehouse."

"Yes." The maid outside the door did not leave, and said again: "Your Majesty, the eunuch has passed the decree and returned the message, Mr. Xue has made meritorious service, and he was named Uncle Loyalty."

"Uncle Loyalty?" Concubine Xue Gui couldn't help standing up, holding these words in her mouth, she asked outside: "Is this true?"

"It's absolutely true. It was an imperial decree issued by Lord Long Live to Uncle yesterday near dusk."

Her eyes sparkled again, and she felt a little joy in her heart.

Is this Long Live God's compensation for her?
The title is so rare, even though she knew that she was being sentimental, she still couldn't help thinking that her father's conferment should have something to do with the grievance she suffered this time, right?

No matter what, she should be happy that her father was granted the title.

Thinking of this, she carefully rolled up the painting on the table, and took a last look at the person on the painting, and the sorrow and resentment that filled her heart seemed to have disappeared a lot.

After putting away the picture scroll, she ordered to the outside: "Caixia, I remember Curry, there are some leftovers of that 500-year-old wild ginseng, you go and get some, stew the ginseng soup, and give it to me." Long live Lord sent it, and said that the concubine thanked Long Live Lord Long En."
