Mountains and rivers are in her palm

Chapter 161 The Emperor Kills Tonight

In the middle of the night, there was no wind everywhere, and the air was filled with restless heat waves.

Just walking this distance made Yan Wanqing sweat profusely.

At this moment, her internal organs are full of distorted pain, but she can't express any expression on her face.

After finally waiting, the father-in-law went in to report and told her to wait outside for a while.

Yan Wanqing had no choice but to stand outside the hall and wait.

After waiting for another half an hour, her underwear was soaked through.

Relying on the medicine given by Xiao Liu to numb the pain caused by the wound, if not, she might not be able to hold on at all.

"Princess, Your Majesty is calling you in." The little eunuch came out and said to Yan Wanqing.

Yan Wanqing nodded at him, walked up the steps, and walked into the main hall.

All I saw was the emperor sitting on the high seat with a serious face, and there was no figure of the queen Zhang Lanyi.

Kneeling on the ground was a man covered in blood, Yan Wanqing recognized it as Wu Chengnan.

The Seventh Prince sat on the chair next to him with a weak face, and Li Chengyuan stood beside him with a worried face.

Really lively.

I just don't know what the emperor called her to do.

"I have seen Your Majesty, long live your Majesty, long live your Majesty." Yan Wanqing said in a deep voice with her head lowered without kneeling in salute.

The emperor nodded: "Yes, Anping is here."

"Your Majesty is in a hurry, but what's the matter?" Yan Wanqing asked with a puzzled expression.

The emperor's eyes narrowed into a long line: "Tonight, my Iron Armored Army caught a few people with strange whereabouts. This person used to be a servant of the prince, and now he has defected to Lao Qi's family. This is his testimony. Anping, you have always been the most Come on, help me see if he is lying."

The testimony was held in both hands by the father-in-law and sent to Yan Wanqing.

Yan Wanqing took it with both hands, on it was Wu Chengnan's actions tonight, it was faintly stained with drops of blood, and at the end of the signature was a bloody handprint.

It seems that Wu Chengnan suffered a lot during this time.

The Seventh Prince obviously just woke up. At this time, he lowered his head in embarrassment and didn't know what he was thinking. Only Li Chengyuan looked at Wu Chengnan who was kneeling on the ground with indignation, his expression filled with righteous indignation.

The emperor sat in a high position without saying a word, his expression was as unpredictable as ever.

Yan Wanqing quickly went through everyone's expressions, and already had a rough calculation in her heart.

Wu Chengnan's testimony has clearly explained tonight's actions. He and his men planned to directly surround the emperor's bedroom, but he didn't expect Jiang to be old and hot. The emperor who was detected in advance replaced the surrounding imperial forest army. He joined his own Iron Armored Army, so that's why Wu Chengnan didn't take action tonight. The person who handed over to him had already died in the hands of the Iron Armored Army, so there was no way to come forward to report the news.

The only thing that has not been explained above is whose will he has received.

Wu Chengnan was beaten to death, but he still didn't reveal who was behind the scenes.

That's why the Seventh Prince was carried to the front of the palace on the bed today.

Murder must be punished.

The emperor wanted Xiao Hongshen to be afraid all the time.

But what does this have to do with me?
Several calculations flashed through Yan Wanqing's mind.

Shouldn't.

What she did was extremely secretive, not to mention that Chai You had already been sent far away by Wuji at this time, she was very sure of this.

But right now she can't take it lightly, just wait and see what happens.

Thinking of this, Yan Wanqing said: "Returning to Your Majesty, according to the testimony, this person was indeed at the door of His Highness the Crown Prince before. Now he has taken refuge in the Seventh Prince, but made such a big mistake. It is said that there is no one behind the scenes, which may not be true." People will believe that the person behind the scene must have made some promise or threat to him because he is steadfastly biting his tongue."

"Then according to what you want, what should I do? I have used all the punishments of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and only two little fingers are left out of ten fingers. I still can't let go. I have no other way, so I called you over. You have captured so many spies on the battlefield, and everyone obeyed you, let’s see if there is anything you can do.” The emperor rubbed his brows, and the father-in-law next to him stepped forward with great eyesight and rubbed for him. head.

The emperor sighed: "It's not too early now, and Lao Qi is also seriously injured. If this person can be made to speak, everyone can go back to rest earlier."

The words say so.

But Yan Wanqing clearly felt that Xiao Hongshen, who had been lowering his head all the time, suddenly looked at him.

That gaze seemed to be killing people, full of warning.

Yan Wanqing's eyes flashed ridicule.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your attention, Anping, then leave this person to Anping." She said to the emperor.

The emperor nodded, and waved someone to drag Wu Chengnan, who was covered in blood, up: "There is a room for you next door, you can finish the battle quickly, I am tired."

Yan Wanqing bowed her head: "No, I won't keep Your Majesty waiting." As she said that, she turned around and was about to go out when Li Chengyuan's voice came from behind her.

"Your Majesty, I know a thing or two about interrogation. I wonder if I can allow my daughter to join Princess Anping—"

"Nonsense!" I didn't expect the emperor to directly reprimand: "Women are never allowed to meddle in state affairs. That's how your father taught you?!"

Li Chengyuan had never seen the emperor lose his temper before, her face turned pale with fright, and she quickly knelt down on the ground.

But she was still unconvinced: "The Anping princess is also a woman."

The emperor stared straight at her: "Are you trying to contradict me?"

"Yao Chi dare not." Li Chengyuan dared not speak any more.

Yan Wanqing at the door curled her lips slightly, turned her face to Li Chengyuan and showed a sarcastic smile without hesitation, Li Chengyuan's eyes almost burst into flames with anger.

She was right again.

Why is Yan Wanqing not a woman?

Why did the emperor ask her to interrogate annoying people? !
It's just a stepping stone on the way for the Seventh Prince to ascend the throne, why should he be so proud.

Li Chengyuan held her breath in her heart, and the emperor didn't let her get up for a long time. Not long after she knelt on the ground, her knees hurt, and she dared not speak, complaining in her heart.

Putting her eyes on the Seventh Prince for help, Li Chengyuan smiled softly at him.

Xiao Hongshen thought of the scene of Li Chengyuan standing in front of him alone tonight.

For some reason, my heart softened a little.

He bit the bullet and said to the emperor.

"Father, my son's wound is in unbearable pain, can you ask Yaochi county master to get up and change his medicine?"

When the emperor heard Xiao Hongshen speak, he remained silent for a while, and raised his hand.

Seeing this, Li Chengyuan quickly got up and walked to Xiao Hongshen's side, changing his medicine nervously.

"Your Highness, if you feel the pain is unbearable later, you can tell Yaochi."

Such trivial words resounded in the hall, and Xiao Hongshen still looked a little embarrassed in front of the emperor, but he still nodded at Mei Zhe.

In this case, he couldn't care less about it.

Right now his mind is next door.

I just hope that Wu Chengnan knows what he should say and what he should not say.

Cruelty flashed in his eyes.

Don't say what you shouldn't say at that time, and implicate his clan.

next door.

Yan Wanqing was sitting on a chair, even holding a cup of tea in her hand, she said to Wu Chengnan who was no longer human or ghost in front of her.

"Would you like some tea?"
