Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

Chapter 245 Song Xie implicates Defang in a crime

"Wang Xian came from a family of literati who studied Confucian classics, but he had no access to books due to the war. Although his official position is not high, he is appreciated by His Majesty, and he was named Deputy Privy Envoy and envoy of Xuanhui South Academy. At first, Mi Dechao often satirized the two of them, which made them dissatisfied, but Wang Xian was calm and aloof from the world, so he did not expand the matter. know"

Defang thought for a while, "You mean, start with Wang Xian and Chai Yuxi, unite with them, and jointly bring down Mi Dechao"

"This may as well be a breakthrough, the prince can search for the line, and maybe there will be more discoveries."

Defang nodded, "Okay, I'm going to see Wang Xian tomorrow."

At this time, Jiajun outside the door knocked on the door and said, "My lord, I have something to report."

"What's the matter?" Defang asked

"Queen Song came here to call the prince to go"

"Empress?" Defang opened the door and went out, seeing Qiao Chu, the former chief servant at Empress Song's place, asked, "Did something happen to Empress?"

"Go back to the lord, my mother was very anxious when she learned that the Duke was arrested, and sent the younger one to find the lord," Qiao Chu replied

"Alright, Jia Jun, follow me to the West Palace"

"Yes, my lord"

Defang took Jiajun to the Queen Song's place in the West Palace and entered the Queen's room. Seeing Mrs. Song sitting on a chair with a sad face, Defang stepped forward and kowtowed, "Queen Mother, I greet you."

"Defang, you are here, get up quickly" Empress Song helped Defang up

"Mother, how are you?" Defang asked

"No problem, Defang, why did the emperor arrest your grandfather? What happened?" Empress Song was very anxious.

"My son is learning about the situation, and it is still in the trial stage. Please don't worry, mother," Defang comforted

"How can I not worry, how could your grandfather have anything to do with General Cao's matter? They are all veterans, how could they be dissatisfied with the emperor, this must be framed by someone, Defang, what should we do?" Empress Song was very sad

"Empress, this matter will be handled by the minister. No matter what, I will never allow Grandpa to be framed by an adulterer."

"Defang, will this hurt you?"

"Mother, please don't worry, the children will act carefully"

Empress Song thought for a while, "No, you can't be in danger. If something happens, how can I explain to the late emperor? I will go to the emperor and ask His Majesty to let your grandfather go."

"Mother!" Defang knelt down in front of Empress Song, "You can't go! Your Majesty won't grant permission, and the empress will be implicated by then."

"But what about your grandfather? The queen mother is also a child, how can she see her father being arrested and remain indifferent?" Empress Song shed tears as she said.

"Mother, please trust me, I will try my best to keep my grandfather safe in this matter."

Empress Song caressed Defang's face, "Defang, Queen Mother doesn't want anything to happen to you either."

"Mother, please don't worry. After all, I'm also the son of the late emperor, and Your Majesty is my emperor's uncle. Even if I contradict you, Your Majesty will not take my life."

"But just in case..." Empress Song was very worried

Defang knew what Empress Song wanted to say, "If there is an emergency, I just want to say that I am worthy of Jiangshan Sheji, have no regrets, and ask my mother to help me."

"Defang" Empress Song supported Defang and cried

In the early court, all the officials were still discussing the matter of Cao Bin and Song Xie in low voices. Defang glanced at the officials under the imperial steps, cleared her throat, and the officials became completely silent. At this time, Taizong came, and the officials kowtowed.

Taizong bestowed a seat on Defang, looked at the ministers and asked, "Do you have a play?"
