The mistress of the Hou family went crazy after doting on concubines and killing their wives.

Chapter 184 The Queen’s Decree
The corners of Lu Wan's eyes were slightly red.

Could Meng Ruyi have imagined that she would end up in the miserable situation she is in now?
Xia Jianglian wore a motherly smile: "Wan'er, your father and grandmother were deceived by the bitch. He already knew the truth, so he personally caught the murderer for you. You have the final say whether he wants to kill or behead him. We are all a family, and our bones are connected with our sinews. After all, your surname is Lu, so let’s give the Lu family a way out, right?”

Lu Wan looked at her with dark eyes: "Xia Jianglian, do you regret marrying into the Lu family?"

"How could that be? I love your father deeply." Xia Jianglian forced a smile.

Lu Wan pulled her lips and smiled: "That's fine."

Xia Jianglian suddenly felt a chill all over her body.

Lu Wan's smile faded, and she walked up to Kaifeng's governor and said, "Sir, have you asked me about it? Is there any conclusion?"

Kaifeng Governor received this difficult case as soon as he took office. Although His Majesty ordered him to interrogate it, he did not give him clear instructions.

He couldn't figure out the holy intention. Is it just a show, or is it strictly based on reality?
Meng Ruyi is a cheap concubine, kill her if you want.

But if the head of a marquis was charged with doting on a concubine and destroying his wife, there was no precedent in the three dynasties of Dali.

Although there is this law, which aristocratic family house does not have some scandals? Who would talk about it in public?
But judging from the situation, this mainland girl didn't just want to catch the murderer, reveal the truth in public and stir up excitement among the people. If he doesn't judge the case impartially, I'm afraid his black gauze hat will not be secure.

It's a dilemma.

"What? Your Excellency, don't you know how to judge?" Feng Wenjun frowned.

The governor of Kaifeng was so frightened that he jumped his buttocks, stood up and held his hands: "Back to the Queen, the evidence is conclusive that Meng Ruyi poisoned the mistress, but it is difficult to judge whether Marquis Lu and Mrs. Lu condone her."

Li Yuyi's face turned cold: "Meng Ruyi's original name was Jiang Furong, and she was named Zhao Ruyi when she entered the Lu Mansion. She was Zhao Linyi's niece. The former Kaifeng governor has already confessed to this matter and was demoted from his official position. This does not prove Mrs. Lu. Are you involved in the connivance with Marquis Lu? Are you questioning your father’s judgment and want to try the old case again?”

"Don't dare."

It was obviously freezing cold, and the governor of Kaifeng was so shocked that he was sweating profusely.

Lu Shanyuan and Mrs. Lu were so angry that their eyes turned black.

After Lu Wan revealed Meng Ruyi's true identity last time, she didn't continue to pursue it. It turned out that she was planning to launch an attack today!
Lu Wan rolled up her sleeves and walked towards the Dengwen drum again. The governor of Kaifeng was so frightened that she rushed to stop her: "Miss Lu, you can't knock it."

Your Majesty ordered him to examine the case, but if he still lets the victim beat the drum, his ass and Wu Sha's will not be saved.

He lowered his voice and tried to persuade her: "Miss Lu, Meng Ruyi killed your mother. The evidence is conclusive, and she can be sentenced to death. However, your father is an official of the imperial court, and he has three generations of hereditary marquises, and your grandmother is the imperial wife. The official has no right to decide the case. I will send the case file to Datian immediately. Today is the girl’s big day. How about you go back and wait for His Majesty’s decision?”

Lu Wan said politely: "Thank you, sir."

Kaifeng Prefecture Yin breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and put on a serious face: "Come here, bring the murderer Meng Ruyi on the spot..."

"You can't kill me!" Meng Ruyi screamed, "I'm pregnant! It's Lu Shanyuan's child!"

Lu Wan raised her eyebrows.

I really didn’t expect that Meng Ruyi was so tenacious that she could get pregnant again after drinking a bowl of Juezi soup?
The governor of Kaifeng was also stunned.

According to Dali law, a female prisoner must give birth to a child before she can be sentenced. What's more, this child is the child of the Marquis.

The expressions of Lu Shanyuan, Mrs. Lu and Xia Jianglian all changed greatly.

"Are you pregnant? When?" Lu Shanyuan stepped forward quickly and leaned over to ask.

Xia Jianglian looked ugly.

Meng Ruyi protected her belly: "It's been two months, this is your child, you can't let him go!"

This is her last life-saving talisman. She will fight to the death to protect her child, even if he cannot be born at all.

"This..." Kaifeng Fuyin's head hurt. If this person cannot be killed, Miss Lu will not give up.

Feng Wenjun came over and said, "My lord, Meng Ruyi is guilty of death and will be imprisoned for the time being. You will go to the palace immediately and report the facts of the case to His Majesty. Your Majesty, please tell me about the punishment of Lu Shanyuan and Zhao Linyi."

Kaifeng Prefecture Yin wiped his sweat and said: "I will obey the Queen's decree."

Unexpectedly, Feng Wenjun turned around and said to the female official beside him: "Qingqiu, record my decree."

Qingqiu immediately walked to the desk and picked up a pen to prepare.

Feng Wenjun faced the people and said loudly: "In the ancient times, the rule of the holy kings has been to ensure the stability of the universe. If the numbers of yin and yang are followed, the rivers will be clear and the sea will be clean. If the moral principles of the people are maintained, the world will be peaceful. If the family tradition is upright, the court will be upright, and the king's heart will be stable. , The hearts of the ministers are settled, the hearts of the people are settled, and the world is settled. After investigation, it was found that the Qin family, the original wife of the Marquis of Wu'an, was deceived by her husband's wife and suffered humiliation. The foreign wife entered the house and murdered her until she died. Qin's mother was heartbroken, and the country's mother was deeply saddened. The souls of all the meritorious Qin family soldiers are in heaven. Therefore, in the name of the queen, I agree to the request of Mrs. Qin and allow the Qin family to reconcile with Marquis Wu'an!"

Lu Wan burst into tears and knelt down to thank her: "I would like to thank the Queen for her kindness on behalf of my late mother!"

The people knelt down on the ground and shouted: "The Queen empress is honored by the world, and her subjects respect her!"

Li Yuyi burst into tears.

She suddenly understood what her mother had said to her.

As a princess, you enjoy unlimited honors and also bear the responsibilities of your family and country. You must do your best to do your best and serve your people in order to gain the heartfelt trust of the people.

Her mother was such a person.

Lu Shanyuan and Mrs. Lu's faces were ashen.

Feng Wenjun took out the queen's jade seal and stamped it in public, then handed the imperial edict to Lu Wan with both hands.

Lu Wan raised her hands and took it, crying loudly to the sky: "Mom, you have suffered so much humiliation that you couldn't close your eyes until you died. Now that you are finally innocent, you can rest in peace!"

Kaifeng Fu Yin's face turned pale, and he ran into the palace tremblingly to report.

Emperor Heng was squinting his eyes and listening to the sound of counting on the board outside. The chamberlain whispered in fear that the Kaifeng governor had come to report.

Emperor Heng suddenly opened his eyes, "You said the Queen issued a decree to reconcile and leave?"

The chamberlain's head almost dropped to his chest: "Yes."

"Then what's the point of asking about my will? She can just decide by herself!" He jumped up in anger and wanted to hit someone, so he kicked the chamberlain in the stomach.

The chamberlain was so painful that he squatted down on the ground and hugged his stomach. He quickly endured the pain and stood up, hunched over and not daring to say a word.

The queen is still the queen now, so the decree comes naturally.

Moreover, he made a high-sounding call, and he could not refute it. If he was not allowed, it would be even more troublesome for the queen to come out and ask for the throne.

Emperor Heng was so angry that he rushed out: "Stop! Don't fight!"

The executioner's chamberlain quickly stopped the plan.

Xie Zhiyan's buttocks and robe were full of blood, and he couldn't stand up at all. His head was drooping, and he didn't know whether he was dead or alive.

Emperor Heng rushed over angrily, grabbed his hair and pulled his head up.

He struggled to raise his eyelids, and his weak voice was almost inaudible.

Emperor Heng regretted a little, and regardless of the dignity of the emperor, he knelt down and said, "Yan Yunhe, tell me, if the queen is against me like this, should I depose the queen?"

The executioner's chamberlain was so frightened that he quietly took a step back, not daring to hear these words.
