Chapter 298 Zhao Saiyuan died of poisoning

Guangqinhou briefly explained the situation to the couple.

Then he turned his head and looked at Guan Langshi: "If your mother passed away today and His Majesty got angry, would Guangqin Marquis Mansion still be able to have a good ending?"

After hearing this, Guan Langshi knelt down.

When Tian saw him like this, she became even more furious. She thought that the son she raised was such an unkind and unjust person.

He immediately shook his sleeves and turned his back.

But what Guan Langshi said shocked everyone present.

"Mother, I will take you there early tomorrow morning. If you are afraid, I am willing to accompany you."

"You..." Marquis Guangqin didn't expect that his always weak son could say such words. He immediately pointed in his direction but couldn't utter a word.

Guan Langshi met his father's gaze: "Father has always taught his son to be kind and benevolent. Moreover, the old lady of the Duke of Anguo has always been on good terms with my mother. How can we just sit back and do nothing?"

Guan Lang even kowtowed when he said this: "Don't worry, father. If my housekeeper is blamed or my son is dismissed, Yun Yi and I will have no complaints."

Guan Langshi turned around and looked at Duan Yunyi, as if he was also waiting for her decision.

Unexpectedly, Duan Yunyi also knelt down with a plop: "Father, Langshi is right. No matter what hardship I have to endure, my daughter-in-law is willing to accompany Langshi and will never regret it."

When Marquis Guangqin saw his son and daughter-in-law kneeling in front of him, he felt conflicted.

"Father, if mother doesn't go this time, I, the housekeeper, will spend my whole life in regret." Guan Langshi struck while the iron was hot.

Finally, Guangqin Marquis nodded, turned around and took Tian's hand: "If you are afraid, I am willing to go with you."

Tian was really moved by her son and daughter-in-law. She shook her head with tears in her eyes.

He then stepped forward and pulled Duan Yunyi up: "You are good children, you are all good children."

There was nothing important to do at the morning court the next day, except that the Second Prince reported on yesterday's investigation of Zhao Saiyuan.

"Father, I have taken the imperial physician to check it out." In order to protect Song Qingyan and Qiong Hua, the second prince only said the word "imperial physician". Anyway, father knew it and would not care about these things.

"This Zhao Saiyuan was indeed stabbed to death, and this Lin was indeed killed by suicide."

When the second prince said this, He Yong, who had been standing in the court with his head down pretending to be sad, finally breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he had passed this hurdle.

The third prince standing in the front was very anxious.

He was completely unaware of this matter. Yesterday he summoned He Yong and Lin Hecheng, but both of them did not come to see him, saying that they had to deal with Lin's funeral.

As for Guo Ping, he has been claiming to be ill and has been unable to leave for several days.

Now, he couldn't see any of the ministers he had just been trying to get around. He was like an ant on a hot pot, running around in circles in a panic.

After hearing what the second prince said, the third prince finally felt relieved. It was just the loss of an assistant minister of the Ministry of War, so it was not a big deal.

You can just stuff your own people in there later.

But the second prince hadn't finished speaking yet: "I checked and found that the dagger that killed Zhao Saiyuan was the same one that killed Lin, and the dagger was smeared with poison."

"Once you are poisoned by this, once you bleed, the poison will spread throughout your body in less than a cup of tea, and no medicine can cure it."

His words immediately caused an uproar in the court.

The first one to get angry was naturally He Yong. He immediately stood up and refuted: "Impossible! How can the Second Prince speak nonsense in front of His Majesty!"

He had clearly dealt with the knife, and he had also asked someone to deal with the bodies of Zhao Saiyuan and Lin. It was impossible for the poisoning to be detected.

Thinking of this, He Yong felt more confident.

The Second Prince ignored him and continued to talk about what he had found out: "Father, and as far as I know, Minister He sent his second daughter, He Yunyao, out of the capital overnight, saying that the farther away the better."

"Now the people sent by this son have captured He Yunyao."

When He Yong heard the second prince's words, he suddenly raised his head and looked at him in surprise.

How did he find out? How did he know?

The third prince is also different.

The Third Prince quickly stepped forward and saluted the Great Chu Emperor: "Father, Minister He has always fulfilled his duties and responsibilities. He would never do such a thing."

After saying this, he glanced in the direction of the Second Prince and said, "I think Jin Yu was misled by someone and misunderstood Minister He."

When He Yong heard the Third Prince speak for him, he also knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, the Second Prince has indeed misunderstood me."

The Emperor of Great Chu frowned and looked at everything in front of him.

Turning to look at the Second Prince, he looked calm and didn't seem to be lying.

On the contrary, He Yong had a sly look on his face.

Thinking of this, the Emperor of Great Chu could not help but look at the Third Prince again. So, He Yong has now surrendered to Jin Chen. It turns out that Jin Chen has never given up the idea of ​​seizing the throne.

Even though his mother and grandfather are no longer around, he still tries every means to win over the ministers.

While the Emperor of Great Chu was thinking.

Suddenly, the drum of injustice outside was struck.

Hearing this voice, everyone in the court was stunned.

The Crown Prince knew the Second Prince just as well, and they both understood each other, so it was finally time to begin.

Seeing that the Great Chu Emperor did not move, the historian Rong stepped forward quickly and said, "Your Majesty, someone is beating the drum of injustice."

"Go!" The Emperor of Great Chu waved his hand at Doctor Yu Shi, signaling him to bring the person in.

According to the law, the emperor must try anyone who sounded the drum of injustice, and the person who sounded the drum of injustice must be whipped twenty times according to the rules.

When Doctor Yu Shi first saw the person outside, he did not recognize him: "Who is beating the drum of injustice?"

Zhou knelt down in a proper manner and said, "I, Lin Hecheng's wife, Zhou, am suing the Minister of Works, He Yong."

At this point she bowed her head and said, "I am willing to be whipped."

Only then did Lord Rong recognize Zhou and was surprised.

It was said that Lin Hecheng had been looking for his wife for a long time but there was no news. Everyone thought she was dead, but unexpectedly she came to sue He Yong.

Zhou entered the court. She looked very thin because of Lin Yin's matter.

Even Lin and Chengdu didn't recognize her.

"The wife of this minister, Lin Hecheng, Ms. Zhou, has filed a lawsuit against the Minister of Works, He Yong, for raping a woman to kill a man and then covering up the truth."

Lin Hecheng then recognized Zhou's voice and took a step forward, but then he realized that he was in court, so he retracted his outstretched foot.

However, no one noticed his little action at this moment, as everyone's attention was attracted to Zhou.
