It had been a long time since the civil and military officials had seen Emperor Jingxuan so angry.

In fact, Emperor Jingxuan had always been a benevolent monarch, and he was very tolerant towards all officials and the people.

This sudden incident stunned all the civil and military officials.

But on second thought, if Wei Qing was indeed Zhuge Qing, they would find it difficult to accept if they were His Majesty.

If one of your own subjects goes to work as a counselor for another country, isn't that treason?

It would be strange if Your Majesty didn't get very angry.

Everyone looked at Wei Xu and his son at the same time. Even the generals who had just stood up for them and pleaded to send troops to attack southern Xinjiang fell silent.

Su Yuan was not in a hurry to step forward, and looked as if it was none of his business.

A civil servant whispered, "Sir Su, the Wei family and the Su family are on good terms, won't you plead for them?"

Su Yuan said: "If they are innocent, there is no need for me to plead for them. If they are really guilty, as your Majesty's subject, I should not plead for them."

The civil servant was speechless.

To be honest, after the Qin family got into trouble, many people wanted to bring down the Zhenbei Marquisate, but they were unable to find any evidence against this family.

Su Yuan's father and son were both military commanders, but Su Yuan got a civil servant job in the Ministry of Works and was more smooth-talking than anyone else.

Wei Xu would not be intimidated by Emperor Jingxuan's mighty power.

The Wei family has the blood of Emperor Wu of the previous dynasty flowing in their veins, so to be honest, it is not certain who is more noble.

However, Wei Xu was not a reckless man who was brave but not wise, and he was not easily angered by Emperor Jingxuan.

He was frighteningly calm.

"Your Majesty, you are joking. How could I be the best counselor of the Western Jin Dynasty? I am devoted to the Great Zhou and will never do anything that is detrimental to the Great Zhou."

To be honest, helping the Western Jin Dynasty does not mean harming the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Emperor Jingxuan gave Wei Xu a slap and then a sweet gift: "Wei Xu, this was done by Wei Qing alone. I will not vent my anger on you, and I will not vent my anger on the Wei family."

Wei Liulang secretly clenched his fists.

Wei Ting shook his hand and calmed him down.

Wei Liulang hated Emperor Jingxuan.

In order to wipe out the root of the problem, Emperor Jingxuan killed Minmin.

The hatred for murdering one’s wife is irreconcilable!

Wei Xu said calmly, "Your Majesty keeps saying that my son is a counselor of the Western Jin Dynasty. May I ask if Your Majesty has any evidence?"

When Emperor Jingxuan saw how calm Wei Xu was, he realized that he seemed a little too radical.

He calmed down his tone and said gently, "You are loyal subjects of the Great Zhou. I will not frame you. Come, summon Prince Rui to see you."

Xiao Shunyang came to the Golden Palace, stood beside Wei Xu, and bowed to Emperor Jingxuan: "Your son pays respect to your father."

"Stand up, and explain in detail what you discovered during your trip to Southern Xinjiang in front of all the civil and military officials."

"yes."

Xiao Shunyang turned around, glanced at Wei Xu and his son, and looked at the civil and military officials in the court: "As everyone knows, after the emperor learned that General Wei might be alive, he agreed without hesitation to let Wei Ting go south to find my father. The emperor's reliance on General Wei is evident to all. In order to be absolutely sure, the emperor ordered me to go with him. When necessary, I can reveal the identity of the prince to protect my father and son."

Wei Liulang wanted to hiccup.

How did someone come up with such disgusting words?

Xiao Shunyang continued, "On the way there, I saw two very powerful guards. One of them was like Young Master Wei Liu, with a golden arm on his right arm, and the other was a powerful assassin."

Death warrior?

Golden arm? This... isn't this Wei Chen and Wei Yan? Everyone looked at the two brothers.

Wei Chen glanced at Xiao Shunyang indifferently and said, "Your Highness Prince Rui, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. I have also seen the two guards you mentioned. They were brought by Mr. Zhuge from the Western Jin Dynasty. One of them is indeed a dead man. As for the golden arm you mentioned, Prince Rui probably saw it wrong."

Wei Liulang did not deliberately expose his golden arm in front of Xiao Shunyang.

Xiao Shunyang frowned.

Gui Bu laughed and said, "It seems that His Royal Highness Prince Rui didn't see the face clearly. Then can I assume that His Royal Highness Prince Rui's evidence is not sufficient?"

Xiao Shunyang said sternly, "I didn't see your and Wei Yan's faces clearly, so I assumed that I made a mistake at the time. But as for Wei Qing, I heard Wei Ting call Mr. Zhuge "Second Brother" with my own ears!"

Gui Bu narrowed his eyes slightly.

Accusing him and Wei Yan was just a side job; the real target was Wei Qing.

He first admitted that his evidence was insufficient, which made people think that he was honest enough. Then, if he tried to accuse Wei Qing again, no one would think he was lying.

Wei Liulang gritted his teeth in anger and muttered to Wei Ting, "When did you tell my second brother to let him hear it? He is clearly framing me!"

The last time Xiao Shunyang tracked him to Changliu Lane, Wei Ting called him Mr. Zhuge and didn't call him "Second Brother" at all!

No matter how much he shouted, Xiao Shunyang would not have the chance to hear him because he was thrown into the mine by Wei Ting.

As the two were talking, Xiao Shunyang suddenly looked over here.

Wei Liulang rolled his eyes.

Wei Ting met Xiao Shunyang's imposing gaze openly without feeling guilty at all.

Wei Xu spoke up: "I fought hard to get back to your majesty, but I never thought I would be slandered like this. Fortunately, Mr. Zhuge is still in the capital, otherwise my Wei family would not be able to wash away this dirty water today."

Emperor Jingxuan frowned.

A trace of confusion flashed across Xiao Shunyang's eyes.

The civil and military officials began to whisper to each other.

Wei Xu said in a resounding voice: "Your Majesty, Mr. Zhuge lives in the Xiangyun Inn on Zhuque Street. I beg Your Majesty to invite Mr. Zhuge to come and clear my son's name!"

Xiao Shunyang looked at Wei Qing.

Wei Qing said, "Why are you looking at me? I am not Zhuge Qing. The real Zhuge Qing is outside the palace. Your Highness, why don't you confront him and see when my seventh brother will call him second brother!"

Wei Ting shouted, "Second Brother, I only called you. If I dare to call anyone else Second Brother, I will be struck by lightning and die miserably!"

Emperor Jingxuan was in a dilemma and had to send people to Xiangyun Inn.

The civil and military officials never dreamed that they would be able to witness such a grand drama in their lifetime.

In the past, everyone was more listless than the other when attending court, but today, everyone is more energetic than the other.

Soon, Mr. Zhuge arrived at the Golden Palace.

He was pushed in in a wheelchair by a royal guard, and on his face was a silver mask that was familiar to the ministers.

There was a sword stuck upright behind his wheelchair, which was the Longquan Sword bestowed by the emperor of the Western Jin Dynasty.

"Zhuge Qing, greetings to His Majesty the Great Zhou." He sat in a wheelchair and bowed slightly.

Emperor Jingxuan looked at him suspiciously and asked, "Are you Zhuge Qing?"

"That's right," he said.

Emperor Jingxuan said: "Take off the mask."

He raised his hand and slowly took off the silver mask on his face, revealing a thin, jade-like face.

Impossible, that person's information cannot be wrong.

The real Zhuge Qing is Wei Qing.

But who is this person? Ling Yun said calmly, "I wonder why His Majesty summoned me here?"

I want a monthly ticket for the teacher~

Before, everyone was asking where Shihu had gone, and Shihu said that he had gone to work illegally for his little evil disciple again.
