Chapter 122 The King Wants Her Dead
When she heard Ling Fengxun's voice, even the noble concubine's heart trembled.
She turned her head and took a look. Today's incident attracted the most powerful people in the entire Beiling Kingdom.
The Queen Mother and the Emperor stood in one place, and Ling Fengxun escorted An Yunxi through the door. After the three parties met, the atmosphere instantly became tense.
When Ling Changning heard Ling Fengxun's voice, his face turned pale and he couldn't stop shaking.
The Queen Mother looked suspicious, "Fengxun, what's going on? Why did Changning say it was related to Xi girl?"
Ling Fengxun bowed to the Queen Mother.
"Empress Dowager, Yunxi has always been with me and has never left my sight. Ling Changning herself has a bad reputation and has been conniving with others, but she still wants to slander Yunxi!"
Ling Changning was stunned when she heard Ling Fengxun say this.
The corners of her lips trembled, and she quickly got up from the ground and knelt on the ground to kowtow to the emperor.
Even if she died, she would drag An Yunxi, who made her like this, to hell!
"Father, father! My daughter did not connivance with others. She was drugged and tied up, which is why she encountered this. The person who did it was An Yunxi. My daughter did not lie, it was really An Yunxi!"
The emperor felt a throbbing pain in his eyebrows.
Seeing Ling Changning crying like a crazy woman, he couldn't help rubbing his eyebrows.
The queen mother spoke first without waiting for the emperor to speak.
She asked the question in her mind directly.
"Changning, did you invite your three cousins to the harem?"
Ling Changning was silent.
She opened her mouth, her lips trembled, and she didn't say a word for a long time.
The three brothers of the Chen family were almost scared to death. They didn't expect this scene anyway. They originally thought that even if they did something in the palace, Ling Changning would cover them up.
But in the end, the person they humiliated was Ling Changning.
Now Ling Changning wanted to kill them in her heart, so how could she plead for them?
They already felt that their heads were shaking on their necks.
But they were very unwilling.
The leader said, "Queen Dowager, it was Changning who asked us to come here, and she specifically told us not to be seen by anyone!"
When Ling Changning heard this, he turned his head abruptly and stared at his eldest cousin who was speaking with a cannibalistic look.
There was endless resentment and hatred in those eyes, as if they were about to bleed.
The eldest son of the Chen family did not dare to raise his head and look at Ling Changning, but knelt on the ground with his head lowered.
When the Queen Dowager heard this, her voice gradually became colder.
"Changning, you are guilty of bringing a man from outside the palace without permission, and now you have done such a shameless thing. What else can you say?"
Ling Changning's heart was completely chilled.
"Queen Mother, Changning is your granddaughter. Changning was harmed by An Yunxi. Yes, I drugged her, but she gave the drug to Changning instead and made Changning suffer such humiliation. She deserves to die!"
An Yunxi was standing next to Ling Fengxun. When she heard Ling Changning say this, she raised her eyebrows slightly and almost laughed out of anger.
According to Ling Changning, she was right to harm others. She resisted and made her suffer, so she was guilty. It
was so ridiculous!
Ling Fengxun's phoenix eyes were jumping with rage.
The murderous expression on his face could no longer be hidden .
He slowly opened his lips, and his eyes showed a chill that penetrated his bones.
"Empress Dowager, Ling Changning intended to harm others, and she deserved this fate. Please hand her over to Feng Xun for treatment."
Ling Changning trembled involuntarily.
"Father, please speak up. Changning was the one who was harmed. An Yunxi was innocent. Why should you punish Changning?"
The emperor looked at the miserable Ling Changning and finally spoke. "Empress Dowager
, although Changning was wrong, she suffered the consequences. After all, she is my daughter. Let's forget about this matter. Anyone who discovered this today must keep their mouths shut and not spread a word. As for the three people from the Chen family, I will let the Chen family discipline them themselves. What do you think?" The Empress Dowager
looked a little ugly.
She almost subconsciously looked at Ling Fengxun.
But she saw that Ling Fengxun had already raised his eyes, and his eyes were full of red bloodshot. "
Brother, I want her to die to atone for her sins!" Even if
she died, it would not be enough to calm his anger. What Ling Changning did had completely touched his bottom line . He dared not think about what would happen if An Yunxi did not see through Ling Changning's plan. ... She actually did such a big thing behind his back! The emperor frowned slightly. "Prince Xie, Changning is your niece after all. She is still young and ignorant, and now she has been taught a lesson. Why do you want her life?" Ling Feng Xie raised his head and looked at the emperor coldly. "Even if she has reaped the fruits of her own actions, it cannot erase the evil she has done!" The emperor's face was full of displeasure. Even if what Ling Changning did was too outrageous, so what? Ling Changning is his daughter after all, and An Yunxi is not. He is the emperor. If he can kill his own daughter at will, then what is the point of the throne? "Prince Xian, don't go too far. You dare to kill my daughter?" Ling Fengxian clenched his fingers into fists and stared at the emperor. The secret guards behind the queen immediately set off to protect the emperor behind them.
When the Queen Mother saw the two brothers at loggerheads, she immediately came out and stood between them.
"You two brothers, shut up."
Seeing the Queen Mother come out, the atmosphere in the field gradually became slightly calmer.
Ling Fengxun said to the Queen Mother, "Queen Mother, you have heard it all. Ling Changning set up a trap to let her three cousins enter the palace and secretly drugged Yunxi. If Yunxi had been tricked, what would have happened now!"
The Queen Mother sighed, "I know." The Queen
Mother is also a woman.
What Ling Changning did was simply more excessive than killing An Yunxi directly.
Ling Fengxun wanted Ling Changning to die, but the Emperor wanted to save her life, which made the Queen Mother a little troubled for a while.
"Both of you should calm down first. Changning is indeed guilty of this matter and deserves death. But she is a princess after all. Now she has suffered such a fate, which is already a punishment. If she is still to be executed, the punishment is too heavy."
An Yunxi took the initiative to walk out from behind Ling Fengxun and saluted the queen mother.
"This matter has something to do with me. I wonder if you, the queen mother, can listen to me."
The queen mother looked at An Yunxi as if she was looking at a savior.
I am afraid that in the current situation, only this girl can solve this problem.
