Good luck of rebirth

Chapter 612 The Crime of Adultery (3)
A life-saving grace?

Hmph, he is the king, Xu Ze is the minister, the reward of eating the king, the worry of being loyal to the king, the king wants the death of the minister, the minister has to die, Xu Ze is a minister of the heaven, it is his duty to sacrifice his life to save him. I can't bear his tolerance either.

It is really unforgivable for him to dare to let the outsider woman humiliate his sister, but because his sister has him in her heart, he can only pretend not to know, and in the past he only treated him lukewarm, for fear of hurting his sister's face.

However, today, looking at the appearance of the eldest princess, she seems to be cold towards him. In this case, the anger that has been hidden in the stomach for a long time will naturally burst out, and said in a deep voice: "Xu Ze, you Such disloyal and unrighteous people, I can't afford to use them, and I dare not use them, so make a note and resign from the position of Marquis of Weiyuan!"

The emperor didn't say who the position of Marquis of Weiyuan would be given to, but no one here would know who this position would fall to... I'm afraid that the first person in the Celestial Dynasty will directly ascend to the position of Marquis of Weiyuan. A precedent for Lord Hou's position is about to be set.

Marquis Weiyuan never thought that he would lose his title of Marquis of Weiyuan just like this. Without his title, he would be nothing.

But no matter how unhappy he is, he still has to put on a smile and thank you. Thunder, rain and dew are all your favor!

The emperor didn't look at Marquis Weiyuan's smiling face, which was uglier than crying, and then glanced at Ye Sanye lightly: "Ye San, since you know you were wrong, I won't punish you severely, but Yefu's family education is indeed not good, and I If you see it, you won’t be fined, I’m afraid it will be difficult to block the mouths of the people in the world, how about this, the masters of the Ye Mansion will be demoted to one level, and they will be fined for three years."

So Marquis Weiyuan was unfaithful and unjust, took away the title of Marquis, and was completely idled, and the last bit of power in his hand was also taken back, and several males in the Ye Mansion were all fined for three years... Although There are almost no officials who really support their families with their salaries, but this is a strong signal.

Ye Sanye didn't expect that the emperor would be so ruthless, and he only wanted to tear Ye's family into pieces: the prodigal, just because she is such a concubine, actually took the whole family into it.

After the emperor cleaned up these two, he planned to clean up Mrs. Ye. He just said, "Mrs. Ye doesn't practice women's virtues. Come here, drag them out to mess with sticks..."

Ye's body softened when she heard the words dragged out and messed with sticks, and her eyes turned black, and she heard the eldest princess's voice call softly: "Your Majesty."

Marquis Weiyuan was overjoyed, thinking that the princess finally couldn't bear it anymore. After all, they were so affectionate back then. After all, Ruoxi loved him so much back then. .

Who knew that when the eldest princess opened her mouth, she did not intercede for him, but for Mrs. Ye: "Your Majesty, although Mrs. Ye is wrong in many ways, she has been with Lord Hou for many years and has children. She does not look at the face of the monk but at the face of the Buddha." For the sake of her filial piety to her in-laws for so many years, let her live first!"

Aunt Luo Xiu, who was waiting on the sidelines, twitched the corner of her mouth when she heard this, as if sarcasm. She had been with the eldest princess for many years, so she naturally understood why the eldest princess wanted to intercede for Mrs. Ye.

The emperor glanced at his elder sister, with the intention of hating iron for being weak, but he couldn't refute his eldest sister's face in front of everyone, so he nodded and agreed: "Since the emperor begged for her, I Let her life be spared, but the death penalty can be avoided, and the living penalty cannot be escaped..."

At this moment, suddenly the servant outside the hall rushed over again, interrupting what the emperor was saying, Eunuch De stepped forward to inquire again, then turned around, and said respectfully to the emperor: "Your Majesty, Mrs. Xu is outside the hall. Take the thorn and plead guilty."

When Jin Hanlin heard this, his eyes shrank, and then he returned to his gentle and indifferent appearance.

Mrs. Xu was the late emperor's important minister. Although the emperor didn't want to see him very much, he couldn't see him. If the late emperor's important minister always knelt outside the palace to plead guilty, and ignored him, the courtiers would be chilled. Yuan Hou had already fined him, and it was too late for Mrs. Xu to ask for mercy.

Thinking of this, the emperor felt much more comfortable, his expression slightly expanded, and he announced the Golden Palace of Old Master Xu.

Mrs. Xu's appearance today is very shocking. He is wearing a white tunic with a few willow sticks tied on his back. As soon as Mrs. Xu entered the Golden Palace, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the emperor to apologize: "Your Majesty, The old minister is confused!"

When Mrs. Ye saw the golden palace of Mrs. Xu, a ray of light suddenly rose in his eyes, and there was a trace of vitality.

The emperor sighed and said: "Aiqing, you are confused. If you don't sweep a house, why sweep the world? If the family affairs are not in order, it is the root of disaster!"

Mrs. Xu seemed ashamed, and kowtowed fiercely to the emperor: "Your Majesty, all the mistakes are the fault of the old minister. In a moment of confusion, Ze'er allowed Ye Shi to come in and forced Ze'er to raise her as his wife. , that child Xixi is spoiled by an old official, an old official..."

It's a pity that he came too late.

Marquis Weiyuan was moved in his heart, it was his father who loved him and protected him like this, Meimei who protected him, and his caring daughter, really the best father.

Marquis Weiyuan wants to speak out to persuade Marquis Weiyuan, forget it, don’t bring yourself in at the end... As long as Mrs. Xu is in Weiyuanhou’s mansion, the Xu family will still have a chance of survival. The meaning of those offshoots of the Xu family.

Besides, the eldest princess still has some kind of affection for him, didn't she just plead with Mrs. Ye?I believe that he will not ignore Xixi, he really understands the eldest princess's mind at this time, thinking about it, she hates people so much these years, the blame is him, not Mrs Ye, just like she said, why bother women It's a pity that he didn't understand until now.

At this time, Marquis Weiyuan really regretted it, regretted it, but it was too late, he couldn't regret it!

Looking at the wicker behind Weiyuanhou, and then at his gray hair, his eyes turned red when he thought of his father's love for him. Big shame.

He looked at the eldest princess with teardrops, only hoping that the eldest princess could understand the begging in her eyes, and don't let the emperor embarrass his father.

The eldest princess did not avoid Weiyuanhou's begging this time, she looked at the pleading in Weiyuanhou's eyes and the tears in the corners of his eyes, and nodded slightly, Weiyuanhou pulled the corners of his mouth gratefully... What is it? After all, Ruoxi still has affection for him after a day of love between husband and wife.

He felt relieved, but missed the weird smile in the princess's eyes.

Jin Hanlin's face was calm, his eyebrows were clear, his eyes were like the dawn of early summer, clear, cold, slightly moist, and his voice was choked: "I beg the emperor to show mercy!"

The emperor looked at Jin Hanlin who looked like the breeze and bright moon, and sighed faintly, yes, whether he wants to kill Weiyuanhou or Old Master Xu, it is just a matter of one sentence, but what about Hanlin? It's a lot of suffering. Although he is cold, he is not completely inhuman. The more he gets along with this child, the more he appreciates him. After all, it's because of Elder Sister and Hanlin that he didn't kill Marquis Weiyuan today. face.
