Chapter 310: Double Act? What are you thinking?
Emperor Wen shook his head repeatedly and wanted to refuse, but he saw Wen Ziduan standing leisurely beside him, with no anxious look on his face.
He quickly pointed at Wen Ziduan and said, "Ziduan, you two are getting married today, and you share the same honor and disgrace. I will not pursue your joint responsibility for the time being. You should quickly resolve this matter."
Wen Ziduan nodded, glancing at the officials kneeling beside him, ready to risk their lives to speak out. He took a step forward and said, "Take He Zhaojun to the Imperial Court and wait until Huhanye Chanyu arrives, and then we'll make a decision. What do you think?"
Not only was Yuan Shanjian stunned, but those ministers who insisted on having He Zhaojun killed today were also collectively speechless.
What else can be said? No matter how Emperor Wen judged or what Wen Ziduan said, there would be people who would be dissatisfied. But if the matter was left to the upcoming Huhanye Chanyu, no one would be able to say anything inappropriate.
Concubine Yue quickly stepped forward to stop him: "Ziduan, that's your new bride, you..."
What kind of place is that Tingwei? If you go in there, you will be skinned alive even if you don't die. He Zhaojun is still injured and has not recovered from a serious illness. Can she come out alive after being imprisoned there?
Wen Ziduan glanced at He Zhaojun, who was kneeling beside him. This was the plan they had planned beforehand. If Wen Ziduan had put He Zhaojun in the court so openly, the other party would have been suspicious, not knowing their specific purpose and would not act rashly.
To make the breakup seem more convincing, He Zhaojun had to start acting out a scene of self-abandonment and self-pity. She suddenly sobbed and burst into tears.
"Zi Duan! Why? How could you have the heart to lock me up in the Imperial Court? I actually misjudged you..."
She was crying like a pear blossom in the rain. During this period, she had been thinking about having a good cry. Today she finally found the opportunity to let out her tears. Tears fell like water, and soon she almost fainted from crying.
Wen Ziduan endured it several times, and he almost went over to help He Zhaojun up. What he hated most was He Zhaojun's tears. Shao Shang was also furious at this time.
"I originally thought you could distinguish right from wrong, but today I see you're blind and can't tell good from bad! Sister Zhaojun was wrong to trust you!"
She fell to her knees with a thud and kowtowed repeatedly to Emperor Wen: "Your Majesty, Sister Zhaojun cannot enter the Supreme Court! Please have mercy, Your Majesty!"
Shao Shang kowtowed so hastily that a large red patch appeared on her forehead after just a few kowtows. She didn't feel any pain at all and stood in front of He Zhaojun, so the attendants and maids couldn't do anything to her.
"Cheng Gongling, please let go!"
Shao Shang held He Zhaojun's thigh and refused to let go, as if he wanted to take her away and had to step over my dead body.
He Zhaojun forced a wry smile, "Shao Shang, please take good care of my sisters-in-law and younger brothers! During this time, the He family will be left to you!"
When Shao Shang heard this, he stood up even more relentlessly and wanted to chase after them to stop them, but Wen Ziduan pulled him by the back of his collar and gently pushed him away.
"Cheng Gongling, I hope you will be mindful of your status and avoid unnecessary trouble. If Zisheng saw what happened today, he would probably say the same thing."
Shao Shang was about to curse when a thought struck him, and he froze in his tracks. Identity? Causing trouble? Why did Wen Ziduan's words sound like a hidden meaning?
And why bring up Zisheng? Is this matter related to Zisheng?!
She was so anxious that she turned around twice and glared at Wen Ziduan fiercely.
Can't you just say what you want to say? Now he's playing dumb again! What exactly does he want to say?!
