But in the eyes of Emperor Cheng Xuan, these were just crocodile tears.
"Even at this point, you still refuse to plead guilty."
Emperor Chengxuan was extremely disgusted with Concubine Zhao.
He no longer paid attention to Concubine Zhao and directly summoned Shaoqing Zhou into the palace.
As for Concubine Zhao, her nervousness reached its peak the moment she saw Zhou Shaoqing!
When she saw Zhou Shaoqing holding a thick case file in his arms, she suddenly ran towards Zhou Shaoqing like crazy and raised her hand to grab the case file in Zhou Shaoqing's arms!
Zhou Shaoqing was caught off guard, and the case files were immediately snatched away by Concubine Zhao.
"You want me to confess? Dream on!
"Look, I've torn all these things up. How can you harm me?"
Concubine Zhao was like crazy.
Her face was ferocious, and she raised her hand to tear the case file into pieces!
But the next moment, a small figure rushed out like a whirlwind!
However, it was Xiao Shuangbao who used the speed talisman to run over and snatched the case files back from Concubine Zhao's hands.
"Uncle, I'm giving it back to you. Be sure to hold it carefully this time!"
Shuangbao held the thick case file in his two little hands, tilted his little head, and smiled softly and sweetly at Zhou Shaoqing.
Zhou Shaoqing was still in shock.
At this moment, his frightened heart was immediately healed by Xiao Shuangbao's sweet smile.
Looking at Xiao Shuangbao's cute appearance, listening to her well-behaved and sensible words, and remembering what Chen Cao had said about Xiao Shuangbao's experiences in the harem these days, Zhou Shaoqing couldn't help but feel sorry for her.
She is the daughter of the God of War, but at such a young age, she has suffered so much misfortune.
"Yes, thank you, Princess. I will definitely take it this time."
Zhou Shaoqing smiled gently at Xiao Shuangbao.
Then, he solemnly took the case files with both hands and held them tightly in his arms.
"Give it back to me!"
On the side, Concubine Zhao was still going crazy.
Seeing Zhou Shaoqing holding the case file tightly and unable to snatch it away, she turned her attention to Xiao Shuangbao.
I only heard her scolding Xiao Shuangbao viciously:
"You damn girl! Are you deliberately trying to go against me?
"Kill you! I will definitely kill you today!"
As she spoke, Concubine Zhao pulled out a hairpin from her head and stabbed towards Xiao Shuangbao with a ruthless look on her face!
"Daddy, Shuangbao is scared!"
Little Shuangbao was so scared that he immediately ran back into Emperor Chengxuan's arms.
Concubine Zhao seemed to have gone crazy.
Her eyes were red, and she didn't care where she was. The emperor was right in front of her, and she actually chased him to Emperor Chengxuan. She still stubbornly raised the hairpin in her hand high and stabbed it into Shuangbao's eyes!
"presumptuous!"
The next moment, her hand, which she raised high, was grabbed by Emperor Cheng Xuan!
Just heard a "click"!
"ah!"
Concubine Zhao screamed and the hairpin in her hand fell.
Her wrist was broken and deformed by Emperor Cheng Xuan!
"Your Majesty! You are so cruel to me!" Concubine Zhao looked at Emperor Chengxuan in disbelief, with a hurt expression on her face.
"Zhao Jieyu, I've really had enough of you today!"
A look of violence flashed across Emperor Chengxuan's face.
At this moment, a hint of fear and panic towards Emperor Chengxuan finally appeared in Concubine Zhao's eyes.
It seems that everyone has forgotten that Emperor Cheng Xuan is essentially a tyrant!
He always keeps his word!
In the past, if anyone dared to act like Concubine Zhao, losing their composure and going crazy in front of him time and time again, he would have probably killed them on the spot with his sword!
But ever since little Shuangbao entered the palace, everyone has seen his gentle and patient side in front of Shuangbao.
I thought he had changed.
He is no longer the ruthless tyrant he used to be.
But at this moment, Concubine Zhao looked at Emperor Chengxuan's eyes filled with murderous intent and finally realized that she was wrong!
"If it weren't for Shuangbao, I would have killed you long ago!"
Emperor Cheng Xuan only said this to Concubine Zhao, then frowned and ordered, "Come, arrest her!"
As soon as the words fell.
Immediately, guards came forward and held Concubine Zhao down.
"Zhou Xu, you say." Emperor Cheng Xuan looked at Zhou Shaoqing.
Zhou Xu is his name.
His position was Shaoqing of Dali Temple.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
At this time, Zhou Xu began to carefully introduce the case files in his hands.
It turned out that the cause of everything was that he discovered a tomb robbery case while reviewing case files half a year ago.
The Jingzhao Yin caught a group of thieves. According to the thieves, when they opened the coffin lid of the tomb they found, they found a pile of broken bones inside. It was obvious that it was not the corpse of a single person.
There are also many things inside used to suppress souls, which look very evil.
Later, after an autopsy by the coroner of Jingzhao Yin, it was confirmed that the bodies were those of five people in total. Judging from their ages, there were both old and young people, and it was very likely that the entire family was killed. However, after searching the entire capital, no one could find out who the bodies belonged to.
The progress of the case was put on hold.
Later, Jingzhao Yin caught another thief.
The thief happened to be the ragpicker who had picked up the engagement token of Zhao Jieyu's cousin and then pawned it.
He let slip that he mentioned the faceless female corpse in the mass grave.
After that, even more coincidentally, a group of bandits outside the capital city committed a robbery and were captured by troops sent by the imperial court.
Among this group of bandits, two of them were actually the fiancé of Zhao Jieyu's cousin and his mother!
At this point, Chen Cao suddenly spoke:
"Your Majesty, the two people I brought here are Concubine Zhao's cousin's fiancé and his father."
