Tian's little cook

Chapter 1279 Direct Hands
After Huangfu finished speaking on the first day of the lunar new year, the guards immediately took Wu Yuanyin and the others down.

Wu Yuanyin was still bleeding where he was injured. At this time, he was held down by the guards and knelt on the ground.

"Your Majesty, what you are talking about is nonsense, when will this humble minister collaborate with the enemy and treason?" Wu Yuanyin roared, "I have never done this before!"

"Emperor, let your uncle go quickly." Empress Dowager Wu said anxiously, "It's just nonsense!"

"Mother, it's a matter of national importance, how can you do something nonsense?" Huangfu Chu said: "Without evidence, how dare I do this?"

The rest of the people did not dare to speak out, Wu Yuanyin was assassinated, it was obvious that the emperor had come prepared and must get rid of him, no one dared to speak for him.

"Then the emperor will show evidence!" Wu Yuanyin held back the pain, "I fought for the Dasheng Dynasty to defend the frontier all my life, but I was accused of collaborating with the enemy. It's a big joke!"

"Of course I will show the evidence, otherwise I won't arrest people for no reason, but not now." Huangfuchu then ordered: "Put these people in the sky prison and notify Dali Temple for immediate investigation."

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Zhun, the commander of the forbidden army, walked in quickly and reported to Huangfuchu: "I report to the emperor, all the followers brought by Wu Yuanyin outside the palace have been controlled."

Wu Yuanyin fully understood that this time he came to the capital for a banquet, it was a Hongmen banquet, and he immediately felt a burst of regret.

He was originally the local emperor in the northwest, and his staff advised him not to go to Beijing. In the previous dynasty, there had already been incidents where a frontier general went to the capital and was detained or convicted. Therefore, Wu Yuanyin always found excuses not to return to Beijing in the past few years. Huangfu Chu didn't say much.

But this time it was Empress Dowager Wu's birthday, and Wu Yaoyan mentioned in a letter to him that Lin Zhimo had been dead for three years, and Huangfuchu wanted to establish a new empress, so he came to the capital after some consideration.

Although he was a little bit worried, but with Empress Dowager Wu around, he didn't think the problem was a big deal.

Unexpectedly, Huangfu Chu directly made a move at the birthday banquet.

"Chu'er, who bewitched you?" Empress Dowager Wu was very angry: "He is your uncle, who defended the country for you, how could he betray you! Let him go!"

"Empress Mother, you live in the palace, and you don't know many things. I will explain to you when I have time." Huangfu Chu didn't bother to talk to her, "Come here, bring the Empress Dowager back to the Palace of Compassion and Ning to rest."

"Emperor, you don't listen to Aijia's words at all?" The Empress Dowager Wu was furious: "Is this how you treat yourself as a filial son?! Is this the 'surprise' you gave Aijia's birthday?"

"Still leaving?" Huangfu Chu glanced at Xiao Guangxin.

Xiao Guangxin didn't dare to delay any longer, and walked up to Empress Dowager Wu: "Please return to the palace to rest first, Empress Dowager."

"Auntie, don't go." Wu Yaoyan finally recovered from the series of shocks, and immediately stepped forward to hold Empress Dowager Wu: "Hurry up and save my father, he was wronged."

Empress Dowager Wu is now the only life-saving straw, and Wu Yuanyin doesn't want her to go, "Queen Mother, Queen Mother, I..."

Before he finished speaking, Wu Yuanyin suddenly closed his eyes and passed out.

"Father!" Wu Yaoyan was taken aback, she let go of Empress Dowager Wu's hand, but was stopped by the guards when she wanted to go over.

"Take the Queen Mother away." Huangfu Chu's voice became colder, "Wu Yuanyin and his henchmen are all thrown into prison."

The other ministers present did not say a word, did not dare to breathe, and lowered their heads anxiously.

Wu Yaoyan cried and begged Huangfu to let her father go, but Huangfu lowered his head and whispered in her ear: "Everyone here drank the same wine, do you know why only your father fainted?"

Wu Yaoyan didn't know why he asked that, her eyes widened, and she forgot to cry for a while.
