...Are her hands useless?
Thinking of the bowl of green plum soup that he had poisoned, Wei Hansu shed countless tears in his eyes. As soon as Xiao Junzhan left the palace, he happened to meet Li Yue who came to report: "After the execution, people have been recruited. The poison that Miss Wei Qi planted at noon yesterday was put into the green plum soup. The poison was given by the eldest daughter of Duke An Guo." Everything is as expected and completely expected. After Xiao Junzhan heard this, his lips curved slightly in a cold arc, his eyes glanced at Wei Hansu who was lying on the ground, and asked: "Chen Zishu hasn't come back yet?" Just as he finished speaking, clear footsteps came from outside the gate of Qixiang Palace. Chen Zizhu came back and resumed his life. Xiao Junzhan tilted his head slightly, Ning Hai understood and went to open the door in person, whispering: "Miss Wei is resting in the hall, everyone please keep your voice down." When Chen Zishu at the front heard this, his face moved slightly and he ordered behind him: "Step more slowly and stop the Liu family's mouths." In fact, after Wei Hansu admitted that Liu Wanning had given him the bait, there was no need to try the case. Xiao Junzhan insisted on waiting for the Liu family to come, just to let them die clearly. It can be regarded as the last shadow left to their descendants by their ancestors who made great military exploits for the dynasty.
Liu Wanning, who was gagged and brought into Qixiang Palace by the Imperial Army, collapsed to the ground when she saw Wei Hansu, whose fingers were stained with blood, and her last luck was gone. Prince Liu was not much better than his sister. He had stolen the Joy Gu from his grandfather, and the reason why he gave it to his sister was because he had tacitly allowed her to use it on Wei Hanzhang. In fact, all of Liu Wanning's plans have the shadow of this brother behind them. If it hadn't been for this brother Zhang Mu, no matter how vicious a boudoir woman was, she would not have had the courage to commit such a crime. There would be no such scheming tricks. The Joy Gu was not something that a girl like her could touch. Only Prince Liu, the future heir to the title and the eldest grandson who was deeply loved by Mr. Liu, could easily get it. Speaking of which, of the four Liu family members present again, only Mr. and Mrs. An Guogong still firmly believed that they were wrongly accused, and they were really kept in the dark. Seeing Xiao Junzhan, An Guogong was so excited that he trembled all over and fell to his knees with a plop. He whimpered from his gagged mouth. He looked very pitiful and did not have the dignity of a super duke. Xiao Junzhan's expression remained unchanged, he lowered his eyes and looked quietly for a while, then raised his hand slightly and said softly: "Ning Hai, please untie the prince." The eyes of An Guogong and his wife suddenly brightened up, as if they had found a way out of a desperate situation. Ning Hai sighed secretly, knowing that this was the last dignity His Highness gave to the Liu family. As soon as his hands were tied behind him, An Guogong took out the cloth that was gagged in his mouth and cried: "Your Highness... Please investigate clearly. My Liu family would never dare to murder the Crown Princess. Someone must have framed this matter. My Liu family has been wronged." "Be quiet," Xiao Junzhan sat on the chair and reminded, "She doesn't sleep well, so don't wake her up." An Guogong was stunned when he heard this and nodded hastily: "Yes, yes! I'm rude, old minister." He burst into tears and was about to continue to complain, but Xiao Junzhan interrupted: "I have been a minister for many years, Gu Xin, you don't know about this matter." If I didn't really feel that I was wronged, I wouldn't still be complaining in the face of irrefutable evidence. An Guogong and his wife nodded hurriedly, but they saw Xiao Junzhan's eyes falling on Liu Wanning, whose face was pale and desperate. He said softly: "But your Liu family is not unjust. Your hands are under the eyelids of the orphan. The belly is really not big." , cannot tolerate this.” Facing the shocked and angry looks of her parents in disbelief, Liu Wanning shook her head repeatedly. Her mouth was blocked and she could only whine, unable to speak. With a look from Ning Hai, a maid came forward to loosen her bonds, and Liu Wanning could speak out. Tears streamed down her face, and she cried hoarsely: "My daughter has nothing to do with me. I have never known the Seventh Mother of the Wei family. I am wronged!" How could she admit this crime? Hundreds of lives of the Liu family were burdened on her, and she couldn't plead guilty! Xiao Junzhan was not surprised by her argument. He lowered his eyes and said nothing.
Li Yue said: "The trouble for Gu masters back then was that Duke Lao An went out to quell the rebellion, and massacred countless Miao villages. Who in the entire capital, except the Liu family, could produce the Joy Gu?" When he heard about the Huanqing Gu, An Guogong's tearful face suddenly froze. He was the helmsman of the Liu family, how could he not know what his father had in his hands. Xiao Junzhan said: "It doesn't matter if nothing related to the poison was found in the palace. The Anguo Palace in the capital must be clean. You can plead guilty now or wait until you return to the capital to commit suicide." After all, it was a super-grade Duke's palace, so he was willing to treat it with dignity and deal with it after he was brought back to Beijing. How could the Liu family not hear it? His Royal Highness was already sure that it was them who did it, and they would not handle it lightly. Mrs. An Guogong couldn't bear the blow. After being stunned for a long time, she rushed to her daughter's side, whimpering and howling. Unfortunately, her hands were tied behind her back, otherwise she would have wanted to scratch the eldest daughter's face. How could this daughter who had been held in the palm of her hand since she was a child... dare to harm the whole family!
Duke An Guo obviously saw things more clearly than his wife. After the initial panic, he focused on his eldest son, and he obviously understood a lot. But he didn't know if there was any father's meaning behind it. If his father doesn't agree, how can the eldest son get the Huanqing Gu? He closed his eyes and felt that he was a useless person as the Duke of the country. A huge disaster was coming before him, but he had no idea. For a long time, he kowtowed deeply, his forehead touching the ground, and cried: "Unworthy descendants should be ashamed of their ancestors." , I have made a huge mistake, and I dare not ask Your Highness to show mercy. Fortunately, the Crown Princess was not injured. I just ask you to give me a lighter punishment because I, the Liu family, have made great military exploits." "No injuries..." Xiao Junzhan repeated softly, a thin layer of haze gathered in his eyes, his eyes fell on Liu Wanning, and asked: "Where is the mother Gu?" Hearing this, Liu Wanning was stunned for a moment with a face full of despair. She thought her plan had failed, but now it seems... Her heart moved, and when she was about to reply, a voice came from the side: "I know! The mother voodoo is in Liu Wanning's body. She said that if the mother voodoo does not die, there will be no solution to the child voodoo, so she took it herself just in case. " It was Wei Hansu who had all ten of his fingernails peeled off. He raised his limp body, raised his head and said with hope: "I have always been close to sisters Ran Ran, but I was deceived by Liu Wanning and made a big mistake in a single thought. I am willing Please forgive me once, your highness!" Liu Wanning didn't expect that her only trump card was revealed by someone else, and her face suddenly twisted. She broke away from her mother's pull and rushed towards Wei Hansu. She had flexible limbs and didn't care about the honor of the noble girl, so she got into a fight with Wei Hansu. Wei Hansu's fingers were injured and he did not dare to use force. He could only be pressed down and beaten, but he was quickly pulled away by the palace maid. Xiao Junzhan watched the farce quietly. After learning the whereabouts of the mother Gu, his eyes became slightly warmer.
