After rebirth, she was forced into marriage by the sickly prince

Chapter 224 Chapter 226
"Because the little girl wants to kill him."

After Xie Xiaoman bit out these words calmly, he smiled shyly:
"As a result, I was captured instead, and then I realized that I was being used. Mr. Zhong, who saved me back then, was actually one of the culprits who framed General Rong Xi."

This conclusion made Shen Xingnan more and more frightened, his body tensed up and down, but he could only bite the bullet and go on:
"Who told you this?"

Xie Xiaoman looked at King Jingbei: "It's King Jingbei."

Shen Xingnan's scalp hurt even more, why did the presiding officer be involved?
"His Royal Highness, what is the situation?"

King Jingbei immediately came to Xie Xiaoman's side, and bowed to Shen Xingnan: "Master Shen, there was indeed another hidden story about General Rong Xi's treason case back then. Tomorrow, the king will personally report this matter to the emperor..."

Shen Xingnan wiped the beads of sweat that protruded from his forehead, and there was only one thought in his mind:
If this case goes on like this, it's really going to make a big fuss.

There is one thing that he didn't have time to tell His Highness, that is...

"Very good, very good. If I hadn't come to listen on a whim today, I wouldn't have known that my Third Emperor would dare to mention this old case to me..."

Emperor Liang came in from outside the door suddenly, with a cold face, stern words, the scurrying dragon body exuded a frightening evil spirit, making people daunting.

This is what Shen Xingnan didn't say.

That's right, during today's night trial, Emperor Liang is listening through a wall.

He wanted to know what kind of ability his son relied on to make Xie Xiaoman hand over the antidote.

In the end, I heard such a mess.

If it was the past, he would definitely be furious, but tonight, he was extremely calm.

This kind of calm made Xiao Qiyu secretly startled when he saw him for the first time.

Shen Xingnan saluted immediately: "Meet the Emperor..."

Xiao Qiyu came back to his senses, and followed suit: "Kowtow to see Father."

Xie Xiaoman stared at the emperor, although this was not the first time she saw the emperor, but the feeling was extremely complicated.

She met this emperor when she was a child. At that time, her parents were still alive. The emperor once hugged her and told her mother to take good care of General Rong, but she never thought about it. In the end, it was the emperor who took the Rong family The whole family, as well as the soldiers who followed the Rong family, were all cornered.

"Little girl Xie Mang, I have seen His Majesty the Great Liang Emperor..."

It is said that this is her name, and it was chosen by the emperor, which means: I hope she will be a radiant little girl, but in the end she has to change her name and surname, and live in obscurity in the harem.

"So you are Qingshuang's child..."

When Emperor Liang passed by Xie Mang, he took a look, his mind was in a trance:
Back then, Rong Xi had cultivated so many high-spirited women. What a pity... In the end, she chose to betray him and go out of Great Liang...

In private, she gave up her marriage with him and married a vanguard general with little military power.

At that time, all the civil and military officials in Tiandu knew that he, Xiao Li, and Rong Xi, the first daughter of the Rong family, admired each other, and they could get married only after the filial piety period passed. Just marry yourself.

That refusal made him lose face and became seriously ill with anger. Even if the Empress Dowager asked someone to invite her, she directly refused.The cruelty of the heart is outrageous.

Yu Gong, she and her third elder brother opened the gate of the city and let in the Qi army, which almost destroyed the foundation of Great Liang. Later, she passed on to the general of Da Qi and became the wife of Yuan Long...

That woman, who once haunted him in his dreams, also made him hate him to the bone.Therefore, in the first ten years after her death, he forbade anyone to mention her and commemorate her.This is not even allowed to be recorded in history.

As long as someone dares to mention it, he will punish them, and the punishment will be severe.

Several times of severe punishment, ranging from civil and military officials to common people, has reached the point of "talking about Chen's discoloration" for the Chentang mutiny that year.

Unexpectedly, after so many years, the poisoning case happened in the palace, and it was actually the "Chen Tang old man" who was responsible. Moreover, Xiao Qiyu, the child he hated the most, actually said that there was something hidden about the "Chen Tang Mutiny".

……

"Yes. Qingshuang is my mother."

Xie Xiaoman in the hall replied.

"Oh, so many years in the blink of an eye, the children of the past have grown up."

Xiao Liang looked at Xie Xiaoman, then at his son, and suddenly said with emotion, after sitting on the main seat, he said:
"I heard what you said just now. King Jingbei, you said that your master Rong Xi's case has other secrets; Xie Mang also said that the traitor general Rong Xi was wronged. Okay, today, I will give you a chance , Arguing and arguing..."

"Even I didn't want to believe this matter back then, so when it happened, I sent two groups of people to investigate. The result of the investigation is that Rong Xi was indeed treasonous."

This was the thing that hurt him the most.

In the past, he and her worked hand in hand to solve cases in Tiandu City, but in order to eradicate corruption in the officialdom and restore the world to a bright future.

Two years later, she helped him seize the heir apparent, and became the heir apparent of a country ever since.

But later, because he beheaded her elder brother, she raised the banner of rebellion, led wolves into the house, closed Chen Tang, and was caught in the flames of war for a year, with refugees fleeing everywhere.

His disappointment in her was so deep.

Back then, they had agreed to create a prosperous world, rule the country by law, put the people first, and make Daliang the most affluent country. In the end, she actually started that war.

……

Thinking of this, Emperor Liang's heart still hurt like a knife, and he continued:
"Up to now, the investigation files left by those two adults are still kept separately in the Ministry of Criminal Justice and the Dali Temple. All the evidence and confessions are in it.

"Master Fu Quan of the Ministry of Punishment is famous for being upright; Lord Chai Zhao of Dali Temple is also a person who understands the law and is fair and selfless.

"The two of them have never missed a case in their lives. This is known to all the world."

While speaking, he patted the table heavily:

"And I'm not a fool. If it weren't for the iron case back then, everything in the case would have been ironclad. Do you think I would have nailed the Rong family to this pillar of shame for a crime of treason?
"General Rong Xi and I have come from a dangerous situation and supported each other all the way. I don't want her to betray the country. But in fact, she really is a traitor."

Emperor Liang bit the last two words very hard.

Xiao Qiyu listened quietly, his father's tone was so heavy, it showed that he still had old feelings for Rong Xi, which was a good sign.

So he immediately raised his hands and said sonorously:
"Returning to my father, my son was a person who experienced the mutiny in Chen Tang, and he was also brought up by Master Rong Xi. My son is sure that Master has no rebellious heart.

"Back then, General Rong San opened the city gate and brought the Qi army in. It was a plan. Master and General Rong San intended to invite you into the urn and wipe out the Qi army... At that time, the people in the city had been evacuated overnight...

"But I didn't expect that most of the soldiers in the army were poisoned and lost their resistance... Chentangguan changed hands overnight, and Master worked hard to get General Yuan of Daqi to give up the idea of ​​massacring the soldiers, and promised to marry each other with their bodies. .

"On the day of marriage, Master led the soldiers to fight back and seize the city - this was a plan discussed with General Qin Yi who led the order to rehabilitate him.

"However, on that day, Master and her subordinates drove Qi Bing away on the front foot, but they were massacred by General Qin and the others on the back foot.

"Master felt that something was wrong, and escaped from Chentangguan with the remnants of his troops, and was finally surrounded by the generals of the Great Qi Yuan. In order to save the seed of the Rong family, the master could only endure the humiliation and surrender temporarily, and then look for opportunities to break out , must not bear this innocent injustice."

"Unexpectedly, General Yuan is also a bastard, and in the end he joined General Qin to eradicate the rest of the Rong family.

"While escaping, the master finally fell into the hands of General Qin. General Qin thought: Master has a relationship with you, and if she is taken to the capital for trial by you, you must be more frank with her.

"So, he intentionally asked Da Qi's General Yuan to rescue her among thousands of troops, let her die in a foreign country, and could no longer defend himself from the truth...

"Father, my master Rong Xi was really wronged..."

Having said that, he kowtowed heavily, his voice so sad.

Emperor Liang listened coldly, this remark was very different from what he had obtained from his investigation.

Regardless of the Ministry of Punishment or the Dali Temple, the result of the investigation was that Rong Xi was recruited into the Qi army because of hatred for the imperial court.Afterwards, Rong Xi wanted to set up self-government at Chentangguan, but the Qi army leader refused. During the battle between the two armies, Qin Yi arrived and drove them out of Chentangguan.

Rong Xi and the rest of the troops were crusaded by the Qi army again, and were captured by Qin Yi again while fleeing. The rest of the Rong family army fought hard to save the Lord, some were executed, some escaped, and the large army was broken into pieces The scattered sand, was beaten to pieces, and a good General Rong was beaten like this...

Why now, his son uttered another version of "Chen Tang Mutiny"?
For this reason, he unconsciously narrowed his eyes, and stared intensely: If he knew, General Qin Yiqin is the queen's uncle, and the current Qin family can be regarded as powerful.

"What evidence do you have that what you know is true?"

Emperor Liang asked coldly.

If he has evidence to prove that what he said is true, it means that Qin Yi did something appalling.

"Father, when my son and minister were hostages, my master wrote me a letter, telling me the inside story, saying: If one day, she is killed, in the future, I will entrust my son with the task of avenging the [-] generals." I hate you. I hate that letter, and the guard next to Master, who were later burned to ashes..."

He kowtowed to the ground again.

"That is to say, you have no evidence, and everything is just empty talk."

Emperor Liang sneered and snarled:
"Xiao Qiyu, is it because I have favored you too much recently that you dare to wantonly fabricate lies?"

"I don't dare. But father, I have heard that Master originally wanted to go back to Beijing to see you in a prison cage, but the day before returning to Beijing, she followed General Yuan who came to rescue her without hesitation. Daqi, don't you think this is unreasonable?"

Xiao Qiyu straightened his back, and said seriously: "If she sees you, tell the truth frankly, if she leads the Qi army into the customs, there is a reason, will you kill her? But she just left."

This is also what Emperor Liang is puzzled about.

Back then, he was afraid that something would happen to her, and even drove him far away to the border, because he was afraid that someone under his command would try to deceive her, hurt her, humiliate her, and make her feel wronged for nothing.

As a result, when he came to the border, she had already left with the general of the Qi army, Yuen Long, and on the day he arrived, she was in the Qi army and married Yuan Long.

At that time, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood, hating why she hated him so much, he would rather marry someone he didn't love again and again than meet her face to speak clearly.

"Do you know there's something hidden here?"

Emperor Liang suppressed his anger and asked back.

"Have."

Xiao Qiyu forcefully dropped a word:

"Master and you once had a child, and that child was snatched away by a mysterious person as soon as it was born. Master went with Yuan Lang, because the child was in Qi State, and in Yuan Lang's hands..."

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Li was shocked, and suddenly remembered that before he and Rong Xi broke up, she said to him with joy: "When you come back, there is a good thing to tell you."

Calculating the time, it must be that she had a dark knot in her womb and wanted to tell him to know.

But later, he was plotted against and slept with Rong Xi's good friend Chu Ying.

At that time, there was also a case that the eldest son of the Rong family was tainted by the innocence of the three princesses. Mr. Rong Dalang was forced to marry the princess and had to withdraw from his beloved one. The woman, unbearable to be humiliated, jumped off the city gate and died a tragic death.

The witness of this case is Xiao Li.In fact, he did see Mr. Rong Dalang sleeping with his sister.

For the sake of his own daughter, Xiao Li's father persecuted Rong, but Rong refused flatly, which made his father look bad.However, this princess is a person who does things extremely and has an extremely crazy mind. Later, she wanted to commit suicide several times and turned things upside down.

Of course, the marriage between the Rong and Xiao clans finally came to fruition.

However, Rong Xi had a rift with Xiao Li because Xiao Li slept with Chu Ying, and because his sister-in-law was forced to jump off the tower, so she left Kyoto, went to the border, and quickly married Shu He, a border general.

After marriage, in order to prevent Xiao Li from chasing after her, she took her husband and maidservant to tour the rivers and lakes again.A year later, he returned to the border, accompanied by his old father, and guarded the border.

In that year, Xiao Liji ascended the throne, established a queen and made concubines.

The relationship between him and Rong's deteriorated step by step.

Until Mr. Rong Dalang hurt and humiliated the princess because the princess was jealous at the mansion. During the dispute between the husband and wife, Mr. Rong Dalang and Mr. Rong Erlang accidentally injured the princess, causing the princess to die. Another princess who was having a banquet at the princess mansion also followed She had a miscarriage and nearly died.

In the end, both of Rong's two generals were executed.

Hearing the news, old general Rong vomited blood and died, Mr. Rong Sanlang led the Qi army into the country, the Rong family army rebelled against the country, Rong Xi died before the battle, and married to the Qi country...

This is what Xiao Li knew, but he didn't know that he still had a son in the Qi army and became their hostage - this shocked him, and he couldn't help but have this idea:
Is there really something else hidden in the case of Rong's treason back then?
