Chapter 148
After returning to Wangyue Tower, Xie Zhaozhao did not rest.

Xie Wei went to the palace tonight.

In recent years, Emperor Xuanwu valued the Xie family and only cared about matters related to their children. The Xie family was forced to be involved in the party.

Based on Emperor Xuanwu's current level of trust in his father, it stands to reason that he would not be guilty of any serious crime, but he must not be able to stay in this wrong place in the capital.

As for where to go, it depends on how my father performs tonight.

Xie Wei was not too worried about the king's propriety, and his destination should not be too bad.

But she couldn't sleep until she got the exact news.

Time passed little by little, and everyone around Xianggui began to yawn, but Xie Zhaozhao didn't seem to feel sleepy, and still leaned on the bedpost to read his storybook.

What I read today is a very novel one.

It's called "Wives, Don't Be Angry, Your Husband Will Rub Your Legs". In this book, women are in power and men must obey the three virtues and the roles are reversed.

I have to say that this idea is really bold and shocking.

Xie Zhaozhao looked at it and felt that this husband was really effeminate, like a child who kept coaxing him, which was really annoying.

She read no more than two pages before throwing the storybook aside.

In fact, she is still thinking about the book "The Yandere City Lord", and there is no follow-up to it until now.

On the willow branches above the moon, the sound of the watchman's clapper can be heard.

The time has come.

"Daddy hasn't returned home yet?" Xie Zhaozhao asked.

"There is no news from outside." Xianggui said, "I think he hasn't come back yet."

Xie Zhaozhao frowned: "It's so late...the palace doors are locked, why haven't you come back?"

Could it be that something happened in the palace?
……

Imperial Palace Study Room

Xie Wei stood beside the main hall with his head bowed.

Chu Nanxuan was kneeling in the middle of the hall, and several people dressed as servants were kneeling tremblingly three steps behind Chu Nanxuan.

The whole hall was silent.

"Chu Nanxuan, you really disappoint me!"

On the dragon throne, the gray-haired Emperor Xuanwu's voice was tired and cold.

Two hours ago, Xie Wei entered the palace because of the rumors about Xie Xingchen and Chu Nanxuan, asking for lax management of the family and damaging the royal family's face.

Xie Wei originally brought personal and physical evidence.

In order to prevent Emperor Xuanwu from questioning the Xie family too much in his anger, the witnesses and testimonies brought by Xie Wei were naturally directed towards him.

He really didn't know.

The witnesses also pointed out everything about Chu Nanxuan and Xie Xingchen.

Even so, Emperor Xuanwu was furious.

At this time, Chu Nanxuan actually entered the palace to plead guilty, which made Emperor Xuanwu very angry.

Emperor Xuanwu gave the order to confront him face to face.

Chu Nanxuan also didn't expect that Xie Wei would apologize here. He didn't admit what happened between him and Xie Xingchen. Even if he came to apologize, he was well prepared and blamed everything on someone deliberately spreading rumors.

He was just a victim, but he had damaged the royal family's reputation, so he planned to die as an apology.

As a result, during the confrontation, the witness couldn't stand the power of Emperor Xuanwu, so he spilled the beans about Chu Nanxuan and Xie Xingchen.

In this way, what was originally just ambiguous is now confirmed.

Chu Nanxuan was hit one after another during this period, and when he was angry, he could not hold back his anger. He actually said that Xie Zhaozhao and Yun Qi had an affair for a long time and deliberately conspired to assassinate him. The witnesses and material evidence were all false.

How can Xie Wei tolerate this kind of slander?

Xie Wei was angry from the bottom of his heart. He was not afraid of wearing shoes even if he was barefoot, so he immediately wiped out the years of adultery between him and Xie Xingchen.

So it became the current scene.

Chu Nanxuan's face turned pale: "Your Majesty, Wei Chen is really wronged. Wei Chen really has no... no personal relationship with Xie Xingchen, really not!" "Shut up!" Emperor Xuanwu said angrily: "You think I am You must be stupid, you are still quibbling over these words, as well as the love tokens and letters passed by you and Xie Xingchen?"

"You not only asked for a marriage with Xie Xiaoqi, but also secretly had an affair with Xie Xingchen, and that... child!"

"What's on your mind?"

Whoa!

The pile of physical evidence on Emperor Xuanwu's desk was swung down by him and scattered all over the palace.

Chu Nanxuan was stiff and unable to argue.

"I have been thinking of your father, General Pengcheng, for saving my life and supporting you all these years, but you are playing tricks on the royal family and important officials like this. You deserve to die!"

Emperor Xuanwu said in a deep voice: "Come here, drag him out and put him in a prison!"

"I am wronged, Your Majesty!" Chu Nanxuan shouted: "I am really wronged, Your Majesty is aware of it, Your Majesty is aware of it!"

The imperial guards took Chu Nanxuan out, and the shouts gradually became smaller and smaller.

Xie Wei just waited for someone to drag him away, and immediately knelt down on his knees: "Old minister, you deserve to die, you are not strict in running the family, and you are negligent -"

Emperor Xuanwu looked at Xie Wei gloomily, "Do you still know?"

"I know the crime." Xie Wei didn't dare to raise his head. "The situation has not only damaged the royal family's face, but also made the emperor so angry. Please punish him severely. It's okay for me to die. I just ask the emperor to protect the dragon body!"

After saying this, Xie Wei kowtowed heavily.

That "dong" sound was filled with awe and loyalty, annoyance and regret.

Emperor Xuanwu and Xie Wei had been emperor and minister for decades, and he also knew a thing or two about Xie Wei's family affairs.

He also knows Xie Wei’s character very well.

If Xie Wei was domineering and restless, Emperor Xuanwu would not have been able to bring him to his current position, let alone when Yun Qi was messing around with Xie Zhaozhao, he would not have been able to accuse the Xie family.

Because he knew very well that Xie Wei was fine and everything was just Yun Qi looking for trouble.

He looked at Xie Wei, who was kneeling in the middle of the hall, and said slowly: "Your merits are in the country. If I want your life, wouldn't it chill the heart of this old minister?"

"I am ashamed of myself." Xie Wei smiled bitterly: "We can fight thousands of troops, but we can't care about the trivial matters in the courtyard."

Emperor Xuanwu's eyes were calm, he was silent for a long time, and then waved his hand: "Please step back."

"Your Majesty?" Xie Wei raised his eyes.

Why don't you blame him?

Emperor Xuanwu closed his eyes, "This matter really upsets me. I don't want to see you now."

Xie Wei understood.

At this moment, the Holy Spirit had no idea where to demote him, and he had to think about it.

Xie Wei took a breath and didn't dare to say more. He kowtowed and left.

In the imperial study, Emperor Xuanwu looked extremely ugly.

The eunuch advised in a low voice: "Your Majesty, please don't get angry over these trivial things."

"How can I not be angry?" Emperor Xuanwu said coldly: "I just gave Prince Liang a concubine, but he got involved in so many things, and the royal family's face was trampled on the ground."

The eunuch's voice was even lower: "In fact, it's not Mr. Xie's fault."

"I know!" Emperor Xuanwu's voice became even colder.

Just because I knew that idiot Xie Wei didn't know, I was angry.

If Xie Wei deliberately deceived the emperor, then he would be punished without hesitation.

But Xie Wei is not.

Xie Wei's loyalty is unquestionable, and his ability is even more impressive. Xie Wei's eldest son and second son are all stationed at the border, and they are also rare fierce generals.

Xie Wei's father-in-law, King Kaiping, made great contributions to the founding of the Qin Dynasty.

Now Emperor Xuanwu was also embarrassed by Xie Xingchen's incident.
