After crossing, she was forced to become the first assistant

Chapter 158 Confrontation
Elder Qin Ge said again, "How do you know that the emperor didn't guard the empress dowager's spirit? The emperor has ordered not to wear it outside the palace. Even the old man and several veteran ministers only knew the whole story about the death of the empress dowager today. You only know that the empress guarded the coffin for two days and two nights, but you know that the emperor handles official duties during the day and goes to watch the coffin at night. It's been a long time, so why didn't you mention it today?"

"Instead of comforting the emperor's pain of losing his mother, you have come to criticize the loyal ministers who have done their duty for him. What should you do?"

As a civil servant, Qin Ge was already a blockbuster.

"As a woman, Wei Xingzhi stays in the palace regardless of her reputation. Do you know why? The envoys from the four countries come to visit, and there are frequent disturbances in the palace. The assassins would treat the palace as their own backyard. If it weren't for me This granddaughter-in-law has worked tirelessly to escort her in the palace, how can you wait here to mess around and talk nonsense?"

Wei Xingzhi was going to have a big fight at first, but it turns out that Qin Ge is always like this, so there is no need for her to speak out!
"But, but there are guards in the palace..."

Qin Ge laughed sarcastically, "What a guard, if the guard is useful, the palace can still have assassins? Now there are so many spies from the enemy country among the guards."

Master Liu saw that he was no match for Elder Qin Ge, so he directly faced Wan Chengqian, "Your Majesty, empress..."

Wan Tengqian interrupted him, "The queen has worked hard. I have already sent someone to send the queen back to Fengqi Palace and order her to take care of her. As for the matter of keeping the spirit, let Concubine Xu Xian take the place temporarily. Do you have any objections?"

Since ancient times, it has been done by the wife of the first wife, how can I send the wife back and put a concubine in the mourning hall to preside over it.

"Your Majesty, Taifu Cheng..."

"Teacher Cheng has objections, so let Master Cheng come to see me in person. Why does Mr. Liu bother to be the microphone." When Wan Chengqian said this, Mr. Liu's face turned green and pale.

At this time, the door of the main hall moved again, Li Duobao knocked on the door, and cautiously reported, "Your Majesty, the Second Princess of Xishu and the Fifth Prince are here."

Everyone's expressions changed, this is a matter of Nanxiao's state, what are the people from Xishu here for?
Could it be that the death of the Empress Dowager has something to do with Xishu?
Master Liu, who was the first to speak just now, turned his eyes half cold. Taifu Cheng asked him to lobby the emperor, but he didn't want to put his life on the line.

The less you know about the royal family, the better.

"Your Majesty, since Xishu is a visitor, I will take my leave first."

"Wait." Wei Xingzhi said, the corners of his mouth curved, "What is Mr. Liu doing in such a hurry, this is just the beginning?"

Wan Qiqian raised his hand, motioning for Li Duobao to bring the fifth prince and second princess of Xishu.

Yu Linglong was still the first to walk, she seemed to have no idea what she was about to face, her expression was still arrogant and rude.

Yu Huaiyin, who was walking behind, looked uncertain.

Wei Xingzhi walked up to Yu Linglong, "The second princess is so courageous, she dared to instruct the Jianghu faction to assassinate my Queen Mother Nanxiao and King Duan. I don't know if this is the second princess' intention to avenge her personal revenge, or the emperor of Xishu ordered it?"

Except for those who were known, everyone's expressions changed.

Yu Linglong's proud expression instantly froze on her face, "What nonsense are you talking about? This princess can't even understand what you are talking about. What kind of person who ordered the Jianghu school to assassinate you Nanxiao? What kind of thing are you? The hat is on the princess's head?"

Wei Xingzhi clapped his hands, and Dongxue dragged the half-dead assassin in.

The assassin was tortured badly, it was the maid Chunniang who had been dormant in the palace for three months.

Chun Niang glanced at Yu Linglong, smiled wryly and said, "Second Princess, I have only completed half of what you ordered me to do, but I beg you, let my son go, he is only two years old, I beg you Let him go..."

Yu Linglong frowned, "I don't understand what you are talking about."

"Second princess, I beg you, let my son go... I killed the queen mother for you, isn't it worth my son's life?"

Officials, including Mr. Liu, feel remorseful at this moment.

If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have come!

People from Xishu assassinated the Empress Dowager. Since the emperor chose not to disclose this matter, it means that there is another way to deal with this matter.

They could have stayed out of it.

Wan Chengqian looked at Chun Niang lying on the ground, following her gaze, not Yu Linglong, but Yu Huaiyin who was standing behind her.

Why did he feel that the assassin's words were more like speaking to Yu Huaiyin?
Wei Xingzhi, "Second princess, this assassin has already made all his moves. You used the life of her husband and son to threaten her and make her do things for you. The double-knife Chunniang in the world was forced to enter the palace to hibernate for the sake of her son's life." Three months... on the night of her assassination, you quietly sneaked into the palace to attract the emperor's attention...you still say it wasn't you?"

Yu Linglong looked astonished, "This princess doesn't know her at all, so don't spit on people, who knows if this is a play you pulled to play to slander this princess."

Wei Xingzhi snorted coldly, "Then tell me, what did you do in the palace that day?"

Wan Chengqian's face froze.

Yu Linglong looked at Wan Qiqian rather ambiguously, "Naturally, she is boldly pursuing what she loves."

Wei Xingzhi's eyes froze for an instant, what else is going on?

"That's not bad. You transferred away the guards and servants around the emperor and dragged the emperor, so that this assassin could take advantage of it. My queen mother of Nanxiao can't die without knowing why. The second princess thinks that Xishu What price should be paid?"

Yu Huai, who had been silent all this time, said, "Is there some misunderstanding in this, my second sister has no grievances with the Queen Mother of your country, why did you kill her?"

"Then I have to ask the second princess." Wei Xingzhi lowered his eyes, "I also want to ask this assassin, why did he bite the second princess so hard?"

Chun Niang crawled on the ground, "What I said is true. The second princess took my son and threatened me to work for her. If there is a word of falsehood, then I will die a terrible death and never be reborn forever."

Wei Xingzhi looked at the adults who were still aggressive just now, and now they are stupefied, "I don't know what you think about this matter, my colleagues? The death of the Queen Mother was not an accident. Should they give us the South China Sea?" Owl has an explanation."

"Yes!" Master Liu was glanced at by General Wei, and couldn't help blurting out. He wiped his brow, "Since it's the assassin's confession, this matter has nothing to do with Xishu anyway. Xishu You must give me Nan Xiao an explanation, otherwise, will you really think that I, Nan Xiao, have no one?"

Yu Linglong kicked on Chunniang, "You all believe what a half-dead person said. That princess wants to say that this princess and your Emperor Nanxiao are already married. Do you, Nanxiao, still have to give this princess a piece of paper? A title."
