Royal daughter-in-law

Chapter 688
However, King Yan's disturbance caused the hearts of the courtiers to waver. King Yan was right, the emperor and his concubine were gone, there was no evidence of death, and the words of Yao Fushou and the crown prince alone were not accurate.Although the crown prince has the greatest authority to oversee the country at the moment, it is after all a matter related to the blood of the royal family, and he cannot be left to be wronged.

Yun Wanqin changed her mind, made up her mind, pulled the Qinchai and Tingxian beside her, and said in a low voice: "Qinchai, Tingxian, can you do me a favor? You don't know me very long. I may take risks, I will not force you, but once I succeed, I will do my best to repay you."

The two looked at each other, without thinking for a long time: "I would like to listen to Wang Hao's orders."

Yun Wan breathed a sigh of relief, quickly sorted out her mind, first leaned close to Ting Xian's ear, and gave some instructions.

After listening to the strings, he got up, walked across the crowd, bent over from the back, walked slowly to the gate of Qiande Palace, found the guard Shi who was beside King Qin, and whispered what the princess had said.

After hearing this, Shi Yao'an was slightly surprised, and glanced at the empress in the palace crowd, without hesitation, hurried to the third master.

Yun Wanqin saw that Ting Xian passed by smoothly and finished telling Shi Yao'an, then took Qin Chai's hand, and whispered: "Qin Chai, you have been in the palace for a long time, you know more people, and it is easier to get in and out than Ting Xian, so I trouble you to go to Zhengyang Gate, today all civil and military officials, royal family members and children outside the palace will send the late emperor to the funeral at the gate, you can find a way to help me find someone in the crowd." Saying that, she moved closer to her Under the ear, spit out a name, and explained it like this.

Qin Chai was startled when she heard this, and left quickly before she could ask any further questions.

At the same time, before the funeral, the courtiers were still discussing in private, and the scene was quite stalemate.

Jiang Yu's father and brother Jiang Ping, Jiang Hongji and his son were also invited into the palace today, and together with the crown prince, he helped the coffin of Emperor Daxing and sent off the spirit. Zhanshi Mansion managed by the prince.At this moment, the father and son saw the look in the eyes of the prince, and said: "Since Eunuch Yao has already proved that the noble concubine committed suicide because of the exposure of the scandal, it shows that King Qin's background is indeed suspicious. If this is the case, he should be punished."

Xiahou Shiting had just received Yun Wanqin's message from Shi Yao'an, his expression changed, and he glanced over at what Jiang and his son said.

The eyes were indifferent, but it made Jiang's father and son shudder, and they all drooped their backs.

Xiahou Shiting said: "Even as Eunuch Yao said, the father is just suspicious. The crown prince can make use of the father's suspicion to create a crime for this king," he said, turning his back slightly, Ruoyou glanced at the first prince, the second prince and others, "Today is this king, and who will be tomorrow."

Although the several princes had been silent just now, they were all in a panic. Regardless of whether King Qin is the flesh and blood of his father, just looking at the meaning of the prince, it is obvious that he wants to pull King Qin off his horse and ruin his reputation. With King Qin's share, can they escape in the future?
Hearing King Qin's words, several people were worried, and they cupped their hands together and said: "Prince, what King Qin said is very true! Father is just suspicious, don't wrong King Qin."

Seeing that several princes were helping Xiahou Shiting, the prince didn't say much more, and his tone had no room for change: "I'd rather be killed by mistake than let it go. If the blood of the Daxuan royal family is mixed up, who will take care of it?" Responsibility? The Emperor Father has no time to punish the King of Qin, so he controls the funeral sky, but Gu needs to take responsibility!"

"The prince talks about it, but it's just a mouth, so why delay the time to come out?" Xiahou Shiting said, "It's better to test the relatives in public, so as to restore the king's innocence and clear up the doubts of everyone present."

The courtiers were extremely surprised, not because they were surprised that King Qin proposed this method, but——

"If the late emperor was still alive, he would still be able to recognize his relatives with a drop of blood," Yao Fushou blurted out, "but now... the late emperor has passed away, so how can we test it?"

Everyone is dead, and the remains have been lingering in the palace for a month. I am afraid that even the skin and flesh are rotten, and the bones are exposed. Where is the blood?

But I heard a slender female voice from the crowd of people in the Palace of Mental Cultivation: "It's not impossible."

Everyone followed the prestige, and saw a woman in palace costume kneeling in the crowd, she was dressed in plain clothes, pretty and soft, although her plain face was lowered, many people could see who it was, she was the late emperor a few days ago Si Ji, Princess Qin who has not been released from the palace yet.

Someone in the palace hissed and signaled her to kneel down: "Don't make mistakes—"

"Since there is a way, you can say it." The prince's eyelids moved, and his tone was lenient, showing his impartiality, "Lest you think that you are alone to suppress King Qin."

Yun Wanqin didn't hesitate any longer, took a few steps out alone, bent over and said, "The blood of the living can be dripped, and the bones of the dead can be steamed."

Before everyone could react at once, one of the veteran ministers with some experience understood and was the first to be surprised: "Steaming bones? This, this is treason, it must not be done!"

"What's the way?" someone asked.

The old official still has never been calmed down from the shock: "Take the bones of the dead, drip the blood of the living on the bones, put the two into a vessel, and steam them with fire. After taking them out, if there is a relationship between father and son, the blood of the living and The bones would be fused together, but otherwise, the bones would be smooth and white without any color, keeping their original appearance."

The courtiers made a noise, so it's no wonder that the colleague turned pale with fright, did he take out the body of the late emperor and steam it?

There is no need for him to stop it personally, just rely on the courtiers on the spot.Glancing at the excited courtiers, the prince stood on the steps with a relaxed expression.

"Of course it won't damage the late emperor's body." Yun Wanqin glanced at the palace imperceptibly, and then glanced at the crown prince. He once fought against the queen with him, and never thought that one day he would be in such a confrontational situation with him. There really is no permanent enemy , only eternal benefits, but the voice is even softer, "This season, the weather is getting warmer, and the coffin has been suspended for a month, the body of the deceased should have been decomposed and exposed. Before the death of the late emperor, his body was weak and his bones were very fragile. , Now I am afraid that the bones have come apart, and it is only necessary to take out a small bone."

"Great treason! It's really treason!" A few conservative veterans couldn't bear Qin Wangfei's description of the late emperor's body as food, and his heart was pounding, and he was about to fall ill. "Even if you take a piece of the keel, it won't work!"

"Framing King Qin, but not allowing King Qin to prove his innocence, isn't that trying to force King Qin to death in front of the late emperor?" Yun Wanqin said calmly and resoundingly.

Although the veteran officials hesitated for a while, they were still steadfast and refused.

At this moment, a voice came from the gate of Qiande Palace: "The Queen Mother is here!"

There was a flash of light in the prince's eyes, and he saw Empress Dowager Jia, accompanied by Mrs. Ma and Mo Guiren, stepped in from the gate and greeted her: "The emperor's grandmother suffered from a headache a few days ago because she was sad for her father, and she has been resting in the Palace of Compassion and Peace. Now, why are you here, grandson is in charge of today's major events, so don't worry about the emperor's grandmother."
