Chapter 166 Retribution Comes So Quickly
Fulin was shocked, and then he said with an official fake smile: "Princess Chen, I don't understand what you are saying."
Wen Ling looked at him with a subtle expression: "You know, and you will be punished soon."
A trace of panic flashed through Fulin's heart, but at the same time he was more angry.
Princess Chen's bad mouth is really unpleasant!
I really don’t know why the emperor likes her so much!
The emperor brought his people to the Yangxin Palace.
Concubine Xian was so angry at Wen Ling that she didn't even have time to catch her breath when she saw the Emperor suddenly coming with his men.
Her heart skipped a beat again, and she subconsciously looked to the emperor's side, but she did not see Fulin, but a strange little eunuch.
She didn't know what had happened for a moment, and only guessed that Wen Ling must have gone back to complain to the emperor.
Her eyes immediately turned red, and she no longer looked ferocious. She looked pitiful and about to cry: "Your Majesty, I was just..."
Before she finished speaking, the emperor waved his hand and said, "Search for me, search carefully!"
"Yes!" Gordon responded loudly and immediately took the eunuchs to search the Yangxin Palace.
He had just received instructions from Wen Ling and took people to search the back of the dormitory. Sure enough, he found a secret door that could not be seen without a careful search.
After opening the secret door, there were shadows of candlelight inside, and in the middle was enshrined the Lord of the World.
Gordon immediately shouted loudly: "Found it, found the statue of the evil god!"
Empress Xian fell to the ground powerlessly in an instant. She knew that no matter what she said now, it was too late.
The imperial court has expressly prohibited the worship of the statue of the God of the World. If a member of the royal family worships it, the punishment will be doubled.
Fulin came in later. When he saw the emperor was angry, he didn't dare to say anything.
He had originally thought that after the search was over and nothing was found, he would go to the Emperor to play the victim to Concubine Xian and to flatter Gu Chenran and Wen Ling.
But he never expected that he would actually find the statue of the evil god.
He looked at Concubine Xian in shock, with questioning eyes. He had clearly asked Concubine Xian in person, and she assured him that she did not worship evil gods!
It was only then that he realized he had been cheated.
He suddenly remembered what Wen Ling had just said to him, that his retribution was about to come.
He had a bad feeling in his heart. Could it be that what Princess Chen said was true? !
The emperor was furious, and slapped Concubine Xian who was trying to hug his thigh, and asked: "What did you ask for? Why are you offering sacrifices to the evil god?!"
Concubine Xian knew that there was no way she could escape unscathed today, so she could only try her best to reduce the Emperor's anger.
There was no evidence left for what Wen Ling said about Gu Chenran, so she could deny it.
So she cried and said, "Yes, I did worship the evil god, but it was all because of Xiaowu. Xiaowu has been in a coma for more than ten years. I just want him to wake up. Poor parents in the world,
The statue will grant any wish. I just want Xiaowu to wake up. For this, I can pay any price, even my life!
What mistake did I make again? What have I done wrong? ! “
Concubine Xian's hoarse voice and her collapse made the emperor's expression slightly relieved.
Fulin was stunned for a moment, but he still added: "Your Majesty, pity the love of parents in the world. Empress Xian was just missing her son so much that she was confused for a moment..."
The emperor frowned slightly, as if thinking about what to do about this matter.
At this moment, Wen Ling snorted coldly.
She directly hit Concubine Xian with a truth-telling trick: "You still refuse to admit your mistakes, and you have no regrets. You are trying to get away with it. You are dreaming! Why don't you tell me everything you did to the statue of the deity!"
A beam of golden light penetrated into Concubine Xian's body. Concubine Xian, who had just wanted to continue protesting her innocence, told all the things she had done in the next half a minute or so like pouring beans.
It was roughly the same as what Wen Ling said at that time, almost exactly the same, except for a few more details.
For example, how the eight-year-old Gu Chenran got into trouble during the royal hunting trip.
It turned out that Empress Xian had asked Fulin to "accidentally"
"She revealed that she wanted a scarf made of red fox fur, which was available behind Beishan.
At that time, Gu Chenran knew that Empress Xian was sad because of the Fifth Prince's affairs, and in order to make her happier, he took a detour to the back of Beishan.
Then he fell into the hands of the subordinates of the Lord of the World and was implanted with evil thoughts.
All in all, it all makes sense.
Fu Li looked at Concubine Xian in shock. He remembered this incident.
But at that time he really thought that Concubine Xian just wanted to teach Gu Chenran a lesson, so she wanted Gu Chenran to run far away to hunt and suffer some hardship, so he passed on the message.
He never expected that he was also the one who was deceived.
It turns out that Empress Xian has been using him all along!
The emperor was furious after hearing this and kicked Concubine Xian in the chest: "You greedy and vicious woman, I trusted you so much that I gave my smartest son to you to raise, and you actually did such a thing to harm the royal heir! You deserve to die!"
The emperor was so heartbroken that his heart was bleeding. Gu Chenran had always been his favorite, most valued, and smartest child since childhood, and the most suitable person for the next generation of the king.
If he is trained well, not only can the country be safely handed over to his hands, but Dayong may be able to reach a higher level under his leadership.
As a result, now, Empress Xian has destroyed this best potential because of her own selfish desires!
Now that Gu Chenran has disabled legs and can still stand in a wheelchair, how can he inherit the throne? !
Thinking of this, the emperor kicked him again with all his strength.
Both kicks were delivered with full force, and Concubine Xian immediately spat out a mouthful of blood and then fainted.
The emperor was so angry that his chest heaved up and down: "Come here, drag Concubine Xian away and lock her up in the Tianlao, and let the people from the clan house come here and interrogate her for me!"
In fact, everything that needs to be said has been said. The so-called proper trial is nothing more than a detention to make Concubine Xian suffer. Otherwise, killing her like this would be too easy for her!
The emperor's eyes moved to Fulin, who was already kneeling on the ground.
The emperor's eyes were filled with disappointment: "Fulin, you have followed me for so many years, and you actually helped an outsider to harm the royal heir? Have I ever owed you anything in all these years?!"
Fulin lowered his head deeply, his lips trembling, and he couldn't utter a word of rebuttal.
He wanted to say that he was deceived by Concubine Xian, but this was not an understanding or excuse for his mistake.
Even though he has spoken up for Concubine Xian many times over the years, he is truly loyal to the Emperor.
Fulin kowtowed three times to the emperor: "Your Majesty, I am sorry for your trust!"
After saying this, he suddenly stood up and used all his strength to crash into the pillar at the entrance of the Yangxin Palace.
With a "bang", the skull shattered.
Fulin fell down limply, bleeding from his mouth and nose, and soon died.
He actually committed suicide by hitting his head against the wall without waiting for the emperor's punishment!
Before he died, he was just thinking that this was his retribution.
Retribution comes so quickly.
