Crowned with Pearls

   Chapter 288 Chapter Eighty Seven Great Hall

He paused for a while before saying: "Under severe punishment, there will be unjust imprisonment. The second young master Xu is dead, and there is no proof of death. Song Yan insisted that the second young master Xu was not a personal grievance, but premeditated and manipulated. How can this be? Prove it?"

   Everyone nodded.

   This is true, after all Xu Ying is dead.

Whether    was instigated by Xu Rui, there is no evidence at all.

   Just because of an unwarranted crime, it is really too much to ruin the family of the super-grade Guo Gong.

Deng Ze also stood up and gave a generous speech during the ceremony of the Ministry of Rites: "Your Majesty, Song Heng's methods are cruel and frightening. Now that Song Heng's name can stop children from crying at night in Beijing, it shows how terrifying Song Heng has reached. Hearing about him During this interrogation of Xu Rui, he even borrowed the torture from the previous dynasty - smearing paste on Xu Rui's injured back, and then forcibly tearing off the entire layer of paste stuck on it, euphemistically, it is called a skin change."

  The crowd was in an uproar.

   Duke Cheng Xu Yonghong pursed his lips and stood in the line of military attachés, his hands were trembling slightly at this time.

  Seeing this, the military officers of Duke Cheng’s family, who had already accumulated dissatisfaction, came out to speak to Duke Cheng, and even the King of Fenyang said euphemistically, “Sage, the holy candlelight, has always been famous for benevolence.”

  Emperor Yuanfeng did not express his position. Instead, he named King Zhuang and the Fifth Prince and asked them, "What do you think?"

At this juncture, it made people express their position, and King Zhuang thought quickly in his heart, and after a while he said respectfully: "The deceased is dead, since Second Young Master Xu has paid the price for what he did, and there is no other evidence to prove Chengguo The prince is also involved."

"What do you mean by not finding others?!" Song Xiangyu was initially dissatisfied, and he stepped forward like a lion with fried fur: "He Xu Ying is a playful second-generation ancestor, what does he know? He can set up such a situation. Sophisticated bureau?! That poison even Song Heng found in the secret scroll of Jin Yiwei, how could Xu Ying get it? Could it be that the Xu family has something to do with the previous dynasty?!"

He snorted coldly and sneered unceremoniously: "It doesn't matter to kill my son, the important thing is that he is afraid that he is hiding such poison in order to kill others. You all jump out now and have fun, and don't think about it in the future. Offend them, what do you do when they use this poison for you!?"

   Song Xiangyu didn't show his arrogance, it was like a mad dog coming out of the cage, Zhuang Wang sighed helplessly, and couldn't help but scolded in his heart.

   This fellow is really too difficult to deal with.

  Manchu civil and military were silent.

  The former spy, these four words are not for fun. If they are convicted, the Xu family interceding will have to fall on their heads.

"My son is not dead, that's right!" Song Xiangyu suddenly choked up and looked at Duke Cheng Xu Yonghong: "But that's not because your son's conscience found out, just after we got the antidote, he still tried to kill us. The person who went to get the antidote! Did he ever think about the consequences of doing so!? He didn't have a chance, from poisoning to finally going to the White Crane Temple, he could restrain himself at every step, but did he have it?! He didn't!"

   Shao Wenxun lowered his head and narrowed his eyes slightly.

   Deng Ze, who had been impassioned before, also shut up.

  Song Xiangyu took the matter further and further, but what he said was on point again, pulling back all those who sympathized with Cheng Guogong's mansion.

  Yes, is Xu Ying really just having fun?

  Where did this poison come from?

   How could there be a government office?

   They have this long-lost poison, what are they going to use it for?

   If you rashly answer again, it may not be a matter of begging for mercy, and no one will speak again.

Song Xiangyu's questioning reverberated in the hall: "What?! My son has a big life, and he finally got his life back, so it can be considered as nothing!? What's the situation? He even walked a few more steps from now on, gasping for breath. After he was honored, he had the blood of military generals on his body, but from then on, he was no different from a cripple. Could it be that our family fell so big? Mould, you want me to kowtow to the Xu family, right?!"

  The crowd fell silent.

   Shao Wenxun snorted in his heart, his face solemn.

  If Song Xiangyu hadn't been prepared long ago, then these remarks can be said to be in every word, and weeping blood!

  Who said that generals' lip service can't be done?

  If Song Xiangyu's lip service is not good, then half of the civil servants standing in the hall now would have to find a pillar to really kill him.

  Look at the ability of this bright tongue lotus!

   Even King Zhuang just showed an unbearable look, and did not plead for the Xu family as he said before.

Song Xiangyu knelt down to Emperor Yuanfeng with a thud, took off the official hat on his head with both hands, placed it in front of him respectfully, kowtowed to Emperor Yuanfeng, and cried, "Cousin, something like this happened to my son. , I have no face to be the prince of the Marquis of Guangping again! My father is over sixty years old, but I am so incompetent that I can't even save my own son. I am even more unbearable to be handsome. place!"

  The crowd was in an uproar.

   The trick of resigning was actually used by Song Xiangyu once before, when he was crying in the hall.

   But everyone thought that he was advancing by retreating, and it was just a means.

   But now, looking at Song Xiangyu's appearance, it clearly seems to be real.

  Deng Ze snorted from his nose, disliking Song Xiangyu very much. He called his cousin and the emperor at the same time, obviously he was deliberately using the relationship between them to achieve his goal.

   This old fox!

  Emperor Yuanfeng was really moved, he coughed and reprimanded: "Nonsense! This is also nonsense?"

   asked the fifth prince: "Hurry up and help your cousin up!"

   Uncle Cousin shouted, well, everyone knows what the attitude of the Holy One is.

   The fifth prince obeyed and helped Song Xiangyu.

Song Xiangyu was unwilling to move, he escaped the support of the fifth prince, and couldn't stand before Emperor Yuanfeng: "Sacred Lord! This minister does not dare to make a fool of himself, and his father said the same thing, he said that the Qi family will govern the country and the world, and I am now The family can't do it, how can I take on the big responsibility? I beg you, my lord!"

   King Zhuang looked at Song Xiangyu with a heavy gaze, the alert in his heart not only did not decrease, but increased sharply.

   In such a hurry to step back, was it really just because Song Zhiyuan was tricked that he was frightened? Or is it because the previous temptation actually hit the nail on the head?

   Emperor Yuanfeng pondered for a long time before turning to look at Duke Cheng and asking him, "What do you say?"

   never opened his mouth. Xu Yonghong, who was standing on the side like a pillar, also knelt down with a thud, and his knees made a dull sound, showing his determination.

   Everyone couldn't help but set their eyes on him.
