Chapter 241 The Queen Mother is mighty!

[What? Wei Daozhen actually blew himself up? ]

When Shen Chaoyan learned the news from the Heavenly Book, he was also shocked: [This old fox is not simple! After the self-destruction, his role suddenly changed to a victim! No one in the court will start to sympathize with him, right? ]

The Heavenly Book is broadcasting the situation in the court live to Shen Chaoyan.

[Host, you guessed right. When Wei Daozhen finished talking about being cuckolded by Mrs. Wei in the posture of a victim, many people began to sympathize with him. ]

Shen Chaoyan was speechless: [What are these ministers who sympathize with him thinking? One or two are fence-sitters! I think they should retire early and go back to their hometown to farm! However, the evidence is all there, Wei Daozhen should not be able to clear the name, right? 】

Heavenly Book:【He said that those evidences were all from Madam Wei, and that she and Wang Deshan deliberately framed him, and that he had no idea about Zhu Yandan.】

Zhu Yandan had always been passed from Madam Wei to the families of those officials. If Wei Daozheng insisted that he had no knowledge, it seemed that there was really no way to convict him.

Shen Chaoyan frowned, revealing a thoughtful expression:【No way, he is too shameless. In order to get rid of the crime, he pushed his wife and adulterer out as shields.】

Heavenly Book:【I have to say that Wei Daozheng is still quite capable.】

Shen Chaoyan:【No! I always feel like we seem to have missed something! Why do I feel like there is some evidence that we have overlooked.】

Heavenly Book:【Host, what kind of evidence are you referring to? This Heavenly Book can help you check it out.】

【Wait! I seem to have thought of something!

Shen Chaoyan scratched her forehead, and something flashed through her mind. She

tried hard to recall, and suddenly a picture in her mind became clearer and clearer: [There is evidence! There is the most direct evidence! It is in Shoukang Palace!]

She remembered that Wei Daozheng had sent the empress dowager a Zhuyan Dan.

And that Zhuyan Dan was the most direct evidence.

Thinking of this, Shen Chaoyan ran to Shoukang Palace.

Since Wei Daozheng had been caught, there was no reason to let him slip through the gap between fingers like a loach.

Shen Chaoyan said to Tianshu while running: [You don’t have to be idle, continue to broadcast the situation in the court to me live.]

"Your Majesty, I am a veteran of two dynasties and I have fought in battles with the late emperor. Not only have I won countless battles, but I also have the golden medal of immunity from death given to me by the late emperor! It doesn't matter if I am wronged, but if I don't clear the suspicion on me, I will not be able to face the late emperor even in the underworld!"

In the court, Wei Daozhen burst into tears and kowtowed heavily to the man on the dragon chair, "I beg Your Majesty to find out the truth and clear my name!"

Sikong Yan was so angry that he laughed, "Wei Daozhen, the evidence is in front of you, I advise you not to struggle in vain. You have committed such a serious crime, and you still want to use the golden medal of immunity from death to offset your sins. This is what prevents the late emperor's spirit from resting in peace!"

Wei Daozhen didn't expect Sikong Yan to actually... He didn't even buy the account of the golden medal of immunity from death, and immediately said, "Your Majesty, I know that you have some misunderstandings about me, but I can explain it! I am loyal to the Great Xia Dynasty, please don't listen to the one-sided words of ignorant women and unscrupulous Taoists!"

Several ministers came out to plead for Wei Daozhen, "Your Majesty, Lord Wei is right, there are many doubts in this case! Madam Wei and Wang Deshan are very suspicious, why not arrest them and torture them strictly, we will definitely find out the hidden truth!"

Seeing someone pleading for mercy, Wei Daozhen became more excited, "Your Majesty, I am not afraid of the shadow of the upright, please bring them here, I am willing to confront them face to face!"

Wei Daozhen has been in the officialdom for so many years, he is not afraid at all.

He didn't believe that he could be controlled by Sikong Yan, a little emperor with an unstable foundation, even though he had the golden medal of immunity from death in his hand?

"Your Majesty, in order to prevent the wrong arrests and wrongful accusations of the innocent, it would be better to bring Madam Wei and Wang Deshan here. When they confront each other face to face, we can also serve as witnesses together!"

Seeing that Sikong Yan had not given in, Wei Daozhen continued to kowtow, "Your Majesty! Please give me a chance to prove my innocence! Those so-called evidences were forced upon me by this adulterous couple! Your Majesty is wise!"

"Sir Wei, from what you said, it seems that the Emperor and the Ministry of Justice made a wrong judgment and wronged you?"

As soon as Wei Daozhen finished speaking, a voice that was intimidating without anger came from the door of the hall.

When everyone heard the voice, they turned their heads and saw the Queen Mother and the Empress in formal attire.

Shen Chaoyan stood silently beside the Queen Mother with a wooden box in her hands.

After hearing the Queen Mother's voice, Wei Daozheng turned his head and looked at her, his eyes as if he had seen a savior, "Queen Mother, you believe that I am innocent, right?"

Wei Daozheng knew that as long as the Queen Mother nodded, he would be saved.

After all, the Queen Mother had always had a good impression of him over the years.

The Queen Mother would definitely help him!

However, the Queen Mother didn't even look at Wei Daozheng, and just walked past him.

Sikong Yan looked at the two people who suddenly appeared in the Golden Palace, and he was also full of doubts, "Mother, why are you and the Queen here?"

The Queen Mother looked up at Sikong Yan who was sitting on the dragon chair, "Didn't Lord Wei say that there was no direct evidence to prove that he was related to the Zhu Yandan case? I happen to have a piece of evidence here."

Sikong Yan's eyes swept behind her and fell on the wooden box in Shen Chaoyan's hand, "I wonder what the evidence is, mother?"

Shen Chaoyan immediately walked to the Queen Mother and opened the wooden box in her hand.

The Queen Mother pointed to the things in the wooden box and raised her voice slightly, "The box contains Zhu Yandan, which was handed to me by Wei Daozhen himself. I wonder if this thing can be used as evidence?"

Wei Daozhen thought that the Queen Mother came to save him, but he never expected that the Queen Mother was here to stab him.

The Zhuyan Dan that he had given to the Queen Mother before had become her weapon.

"Queen Mother, I..."

Wei Daozheng wanted to argue, but the Queen Mother did not give him the chance. "Sir Wei, there is no need for you to cry out for injustice here. When you gave the Zhuyan Dan to me, everyone in Shoukang Palace saw you. If you need witnesses, I can call them all over."

Wei Daozheng looked at the Queen Mother, his face full of confusion, "Why? Qionghua, why do you treat me like this?"

When the Queen Mother saw that he dared to call her by her name in front of all the civil and military officials, her expression instantly turned cold.

This old man is really cunning, does he want all the officials to misunderstand that their relationship is unusual?

The Queen Mother was about to speak, but Sikong Yan spoke first, "How dare you! Who do you think you are to call the Queen Mother by her name?"

Shen Chaoyan also spoke quickly, drawing everyone's attention to the Zhuyan Pill, "Your Majesty, what I hold in my hand is the Zhuyan Pill! It was given to the Queen Mother personally by Lord Wei!"
