Chapter 514

The two dressed up and came outside the hall.

The tenth princess was kneeling in the main hall, wearing an ivory white dress, covered with a cloak inlaid with gold and silver silk embroidered cloud pattern fur collar, her hair was simply rolled up, and a white jade flower hairpin was on her hairpin. few.

She became less pampered and more dignified and well-behaved.

Seeing her Lin Daiyu-like expression, Mu Wan frowned, "Sister Shihuang, get up."

The tenth princess knelt still, shook her head and said, "My sister begs the emperor to let Brother Seven go, otherwise my sister will not be able to kneel."

As she spoke, she coughed for a while, as if she had caught a cold.

"You just came back from Xiangguo Temple?"

The girl raised her eyes and looked with fear in her eyes, "Yes... My sister returned to the palace on her own initiative, and I hope the emperor will forgive me."

"Then you go back first, and we'll talk about it tomorrow if you have anything to say."

"Miss Huang..."

"Come here, send the tenth princess back to the princess mansion."

Regarding Prince Li's matter, she didn't let him go just because she said so.

There is no news from Xiqi, if Prince Xiqi is willing to send a letter to intercede for Prince Li, she still has reason to let him go.

But after so many days, Xi Qi seems to have forgotten about it.

Emperor Xiqi also repeatedly pressured her to execute Prince Li.

Prince Xiqi didn't want to save Prince Li at all, he completely forgot about him.

She was not sure whether Prince Li had colluded with Mo Li, so even if he did not execute him, she would not let him go casually.

It is even more impossible to release people just because the ten princesses begged for mercy.

The ten princesses were forcibly taken back to the princess mansion.

No matter how much she cried or how she pleaded for mercy.

...

And that night, Prince Li was suddenly assassinated by Dao in his cell, injured and nearly lost his life.

The next day, the old lady was so angry that she passed out when she heard the news.

The plum blossom feast was therefore temporarily cancelled.

In the Golden Luan Hall, the empress was furious and ordered someone to investigate the matter thoroughly. Prince Li was temporarily released and placed under house arrest in the palace.

After coming down to court, the empress came to Shoukang Palace.

...

"Grandmother don't have to worry, Brother Seventh Prince is fine."

Fu Si went to Xiqi, so he had to let Imperial Physician Chen come over.

The old lady was lying on the bed, angry like gossamer, "Emperor, why are you so cruel, if something happens to Mu'er, Aijia will die, cough cough..."

Mu Wan: "..."

"Emperor Grandmother, don't worry, I have sent people to conduct a thorough investigation. The murderer will definitely be found out, and Brother Seventh Prince will be given justice."

The empress looked cold, extremely irritable, and faintly angry.

This is clearly a trick they played.

Zheng Guogong and the old lady saw that she refused to let Prince Li go, so they sent someone to assassinate him, and played out this bitter trick to force her to let him go.

He also planted the blame on Prince Qi.

When the two sides are fighting, she will only watch the show.

But she didn't like what the old lady did, it was too vicious.

In terms of ruthlessness, who could be more ruthless than her?
In order to save one grandson, he would not hesitate to sacrifice another grandson.

For the sake of the throne, the old lady would kill her without hesitation.

Thinking that she is getting old, if she keeps herself safe, it doesn't matter to respect her well, heh... But the old lady only has Prince Li in her heart.

Forget it, she loves this grandson wholeheartedly, and she just wants to help her.

"I have ordered the release of Brother Seventh Prince, and I will not pursue this matter any further, but I have to give Emperor Xiqi an explanation. Brother Seventh Prince will be under house arrest in the palace for one year. Without my order, he will not be allowed to leave the palace for half a step, and will be fined. For three years, remember the [-]th board first, and execute the sentence as soon as the injury recovers."

The old lady was so angry that her face was livid, she stood up suddenly, no one had her energy, and said angrily, "Emperor, you..."

Mu Wan looked at her faintly, and sneered, "Grandmother, you look so energetic."

The old lady's complexion changed, her eyes flickered, and she immediately lay back sleepily, and said weakly, "Now the emperor's wings are hardened, and he only cares about the country and the country in his heart, regardless of family ties, and his family is getting old, the emperor can make up his own mind."

As the saying goes, you can't push yourself too far in life.

The old lady knew that the Empress was extremely angry and that Prince Li was released, and their goal had been slightly achieved, so let's do this first, and later, later, take one step at a time.

Mu Wan sneered inwardly, with the corners of her lips twitching slightly, and said to Imperial Physician Chen, "Take good care of her, and take good care of the imperial grandmother's body. If there is something wrong, please come and see her."

Everyone in the Shoukang Palace tensed their backs and hurriedly knelt down, "I will send you off to the emperor..."

Mu Wan snorted coldly, and left Shoukang Palace with a flick of her dragon robe, regardless of the people behind her.

...

Prince Li's Mansion.

Prince Li was sent back to the palace, but he was actually slightly injured, not serious.

This plan was proposed by him.

The assassin was arranged by Zheng Guogong and the old lady.

Naturally, he didn't dare to be ruthless.

So it was just that his arm scratched the crossing, suffered some internal injuries, and his face looked a little pale.

The empress sent people to surround the entire Prince Li's mansion, ordered him to be placed under house arrest for one year, and fined him both salary and board.

But house arrest for a year...

This means that he cannot go to court for a year, and the empress is secretly suppressing his forces.

Prince Li's eyes flashed sullenly, he was so angry that he wanted to kill someone.

Zheng Guogong looked at him, and only then did he have the opportunity to ask the real truth, "Why did the lord assassinate Prince Xiqi? Assassination is the assassination, why did you admit it in front of the Xiqi envoy?"

He never believed that Prince Li would do such a stupid thing.

Prince Li's complexion changed, he closed his eyes, and didn't want to answer this question. He did the most stupid thing once, and said, "This king was plotted by the Xiqi State Teacher."

However, he can appeal for grievances and correct Mo Li's calculations.

But he didn't, because Mo Li threatened him with Prince Xiqi's life, forcing him to admit it.

Ridiculously, he actually compromised.

For a man, he fell such a big somersault and suffered heavy losses. He felt stupid and ridiculous, so why did he compromise for Li Jinyan? ?

He still hasn't figured it out.

Zheng Guogong paused, thinking of his collusion and cooperation with Prince Xiqi, he thought it was Mo Li who threatened him with this matter.

The Empress has always known that Prince Li and Prince Xiqi colluded secretly, but because there is no evidence, they cannot be punished.

If Mo Li was asked to present the evidence to the empress, then the empress would have every reason to punish him.

At that time, it won't be a bitter trick to get rid of the crime, and it might even implicate the Duke's government.

Thinking of this, Zheng Guogong clenched his fist and said, "The prince is still thoughtful."

Prince Li lowered his eyes, and the bottom of his eyes was faintly ruthless, "This king is careless."

He shouldn't have provoked Prince Xiqi in the first place.

Mo Li did this to teach him a little lesson, because he didn't catch Ning Xinyao for him.

Prince Xiqi was almost beaten to death by him, let alone him?
Not being killed is already very good.

Zheng Guogong sighed secretly, shook his head and said, "National Master Xiqi, he is not a good traitor. The late Emperor suffered a lot from him when he was alive. My lord, it is better for us not to provoke this devil."

It's fine with Prince Xiqi, but Mo Li must never be provoked.

Prince Li nodded with an ugly face, "I know, this time, thanks to my uncle, otherwise I would not be able to get away. I am not here, and the overall situation of the court needs my uncle's help."
