"Why!" Liang Chaozong screamed hysterically, waving his arms and pushing everything on the table to the ground.
His sudden madness frightened many of the female relatives, and some timid ones covered their ears and screamed.
At this time, seven or eight of the generals who were sitting next to Baili Hua reacted quickly, stepped over the table, and came to Liang Chaozong at great speed, and subdued him in no time.
Immediately afterwards, several guards outside also rushed in.
The guards were well-trained and took out ropes, tied Liang Chaozong and Yao Jinse tightly, and stuffed gags into their mouths.
All of this happened so suddenly that the guests present felt their heads buzzing and their CPUs were about to overheat.
"By the way, Liang Chaozong, Yao Jinse, I haven't shown you this person yet!" Xia Zhengqi chuckled.
After saying that, he gave Xiao Licheng a wink.
Xiao Licheng understood what he meant and took off the hood of the third person who was kneeling there.
Liang Chaozong and Yao Jinse looked at the person with great effort, and it turned out to be Nanny Xie who was hiding beside Princess Jin.
At this time, Aunt Xie was shaking like a sieve, and a foul-smelling liquid was flowing out from her body.
Xiao Licheng pointed at Aunt Xie and said, "Liang Chaozong, do you recognize this woman? Aunt Xie."
"You did everything you could to arrange for her to be with Princess Jin."
"In order to sabotage Daxia's plan to promote the cultivation of exotic crops, you let this woman give the pregnant Princess Jin and the Prince of Jin a chronic poison."
"You want to poison the Jin prince and his wife with a chronic poison and have the Jin princess give birth to a stillborn baby to prove that the exotic crops are poisonous."
"You have such vicious thoughts!"
"But you didn't expect that the Emperor had already known about your conspiracy and had secretly detoxified the Prince of Jin and his wife."
At this time, Prince Jin took two steps forward and said loudly, "Weren't you all wondering why my expression suddenly changed?"
"The reason is simple. In order to keep this drama going, the Emperor ordered me and the Princess to continue pretending to be suffering from chronic poisoning."
"Every morning, the prince and the princess paint their faces a sallow yellow with blush."
"I just washed my face in the delivery room, so my complexion has improved."
Liang Chaozong, who was speechless, cast vicious glances at Xia Zhengqi, Prince of Jin, and Xiao Licheng, and made a whimpering sound.
At this moment, all the guests in the hall were immersed in great shock for a long time and could not recover.
Looking at Niu Baijin and Mrs. Niu, they were all trembling and hanging their heads.
They couldn't be sure whether Emperor Mingxi knew the identity of their Niu family.
At this moment, Xia Zhengqi's voice rang out again, "Master Niu! Madam Niu!"
This sound was like a thunderclap that struck the Niu couple. They trembled violently and looked at Xia Zhengqi in horror.
"You guys are good at disguising yourself!"
"You guys are really powerful spies!"
Niu Baijin was so frightened that his face turned pale. He fell to his knees with a thud and shouted at the top of his lungs, "Your Majesty, I am innocent!"
"I have been deceived by a traitor!"
"Back then, my wife and I took in a poor orphan girl. She said she was from a peasant family outside Beijing and both her parents had died. My wife and I believed her and adopted her!"
"Later, she grew up to be as beautiful as a flower. Coincidentally, there was a selection in the palace, and she was determined to enter the palace and make a name for herself. That's why I sent her to the palace to be a concubine!"
"I only found out about this later..." Having said this, Niu Baijin paused, as if he was thinking about what to say.
"It was only in recent years that I discovered something strange about her. I realized she was actually a remnant of the Liang Dynasty!"
Originally, the guests were all puzzled when Emperor Mingxi called out the names of Lord Niu and Madam Niu.
When they heard what Lord Niu said, they were all shocked.
"What! In other words, the former virtuous concubine is also a remnant of the Liang Dynasty!"
"Is Lord Niu actually in league with the remnants of the Liang Dynasty?"
"Oh my god! Lord Niu has actually been helping the remnants of the Liang Dynasty!"
For a moment, the discussions in the hall were extremely lively, comparable to a vegetable market.
Xia Zhengqi glanced at the princes and ministers who were discussing this heatedly and showed a look of disgust.
Xia Miaoyuan couldn't help but complain in his heart, "These people are enough."
Normally, when Daddy asked them their opinions in the court, he was very tactful. But when it came time to eat melons and discuss gossip, their personalities immediately changed, and they all spoke incessantly and eloquently.
“Ahem!”
Debao caught the displeasure of Emperor Mingxi and cleared his throat loudly and tactfully, and everyone below fell silent.
Xia Zhengqi said, "Master Niu, you really have a clever tongue!"
"So, you are still a poor, deceived person!"
Then, Xia Zhengqi changed his expression to a cold one, and his voice became much harsher: "But, do you think I will believe your nonsense?"
"I can even find out the details of Liang Xin. Do you think I can't find out the details of your Niu family?"
"Your Niu family, tracing back to your ancestors, once served as officials in the Liang Dynasty. Later, Liang was destroyed and Great Xia was established. Although your Niu family served as officials in Great Xia on the surface, they were loyal and devoted."
"But you have never severed your connection with the remnants of the Liang Dynasty."
"Twenty years ago, they came up with a grand plan to use the imperial concubine as a spy. Your Niu family cooperated wholeheartedly and brought Liang Chaozong's biological sister, Liang Ruoshui, into the Niu Mansion, pretending that she was the daughter they had raised in their hometown."
"Later, there's no need for me to explain further. She was sent to the palace and became a virtuous concubine."
When Niu Baijin and his wife heard this, they both collapsed to the ground, as if their souls had been sucked out of them.
At this moment, all the guests showed expressions of sudden enlightenment, and some even looked at each other.
Now, all the doubts in their hearts were resolved.
Two years ago, why was Concubine Xian suddenly imprisoned in Fanyin Temple on some pretext, and why did Concubine Xian's son die inexplicably?
Later, rumors spread that Concubine Xian was missing.
It turns out that the root of all this is the true identity of Concubine Xian. She is Liang Chaozong's biological sister and a spy.
In other words, at that time, Emperor Mingxi had already seen through Concubine Xian's identity and knew about the Niu family's affairs.
Emperor Mingxi looked at the Niu couple with disgust, waved his hand, and several guards immediately stepped forward and tied them up.
"Lock all four of them, as well as these three, into the Sky Prison and have them personally tried by Lord Xiao, the Chief Justice of the Dali Temple." Xia Zhengqi ordered in a cold voice.
The guards responded, and in no time, the seven men were dragged away.
Xia Miaoyuan watched the men walk away, feeling deeply moved. "Liang Chaozong, Yao Jinse, and Niu Baijin have finally been legitimately apprehended."
If all goes well, they should be executed after being interrogated.
[If that's the case, the established trajectory of this book has been successfully changed.]
[But Liang Chaozong must be the son of destiny, the chosen one. Can he really be successfully eliminated by my father this time?]
[Hey, I'm a little panicked. What's going on?]
The more Xia Miaoyuan thought about it, the more confused he became.
