Chapter 57 Liars will be struck by lightning
Anyway, Xiao Ziran is dead.
There is no evidence!
After all, he is the prince consort. If something happens to him, Princess Changping will become a widow.
Maybe the emperor is just angry for a while, and he will go through the procedures. After a few days, the emperor may not ask him about this matter.
He has to find a reason to get through these days.
"Xiao Ziran is just on good terms with me in private. As for official affairs, I have not conspired with Xiao Ziran at all. The princess is my wife, and the emperor is our brother. How could I break the law knowingly, go along with others, and participate in such an important matter as the imperial examination? Please let the emperor see clearly!"
[Scumbag dad, don't listen to the scumbag's nonsense]
[Do you know who this Xiao Ziran is? Do you know why the scumbag wanted to help Xiao Ziran even though he knew it was illegal?]
Why?
Not only the tyrant was curious, but also Princess Changping and Concubine De were very curious.
[This Xiao Ziran is the younger brother of the concubine. The reason why the Xiao siblings were able to quickly gain a foothold in the capital was that the scumbag contributed a lot of money and effort.
Hey, he used his aunt's dowry to buy properties for the Xiao siblings.
This made Xiao Ziran, who was originally just a thief, become a dandy young man in the capital.]
"Ahem." Princess Changping was a little out of breath with anger.
No wonder!
No wonder Abao said that the concubine's younger brother died, and the prince consort had to coax the concubine...
It turned out that the younger brother was Xiao Ziran.
"Quickly call the imperial physician!" The tyrant gave an order.
The prince consort hurried forward to take care of her. Changping couldn't die now. If Princess Changping died, he would lose this amulet.
How could he still act arrogantly in the capital with his status as the prince consort?
He still had his son and Liangliang to raise. Changping had to at least live until his son reached adulthood before he died.
"Brother, it's not necessary." Princess Changping's mood gradually stabilized. "Prince consort, I'll ask you one last time, who is Xiao Ziran?"
Before, Shangguan Ze had brought Xiao Ziran to the mansion many times.
No wonder Xiao Ziran smiled every time he saw her. It
turned out that he was brazenly making fun of her for being stupid.
The prince consort was hooking up with his sister, but she was still like a fool, thinking that the prince consort only loved her.
"Just an ordinary friend, ma'am, you must believe me, everything I say to you is true."
"True? Do you dare to swear to heaven that you have never lied to me in all these years since I married you?"
Shangguan Ze was also a man of action. He immediately ran out of the door, raised three fingers, and swore to heaven.
"God, I, Shangguan Ze, swear to heaven now that there is only Princess Changping in my heart in my life. Whether before or after marriage, I have always been devoted to her and have been consistent in my words and deeds.
She is the treasure in my heart, the love in my heart, and I have never concealed or deceived her about anything.
If I say anything against my will, let me be hit by a carriage when I go out, or be struck by lightning when I stand!"
A Bao's little fingers lingered, and a cluster of spiritual energy bounced from his fingertips to the sky.
There was a loud rumble, and the sky was covered with dark clouds. The weather was going to change!
Shangguan Ze, who was raising his hand to swear an oath, said: "?" No.
Is
this... thunder? A thunderbolt struck, and Shangguan Ze immediately screamed, "Ahhh!" He dodged to the side, but was still struck by the thunder, which scorched his hair and made it stand upright. His butt was also on fire. Shangguan Ze went crazy, "Princess, Princess, help me." Shangguan Ze jumped back and forth like a monkey in front of the door. He simply lay on the ground, rolling back and forth, and kept screaming. After struggling for a while, he finally put out the fire on his body. But his hair that stood up couldn't be lowered. The tyrant: "..." Lie and be struck by thunder. Concubine De finally opened her eyes. She felt even more indignant for the princess and wanted to break up this scumbag who was living a life of luxury. Princess Changping, on the other hand, was extremely flustered. Shangguan Ze struggled to get up and crawled towards Princess Changping, "Ping'er, this was an accident. Don't think too much about it. I swear, I never lied to you..." With the emperor around, Shangguan Ze would never dare to quarrel with Changping. He could only use soft and hard tactics as usual. Changping was the most susceptible to this. [Aunt, don't believe in scumbags, liar! Big liar!] [The scumbag wants to use you as a talisman, break him!] Abao was sitting on the table, playing with a fat cup in his hand. 'Pah' Abao threw it down with all his might, and it hit the head of the prince consort who was kneeling on the ground directly. Abao chuckled happily: "Beat...beat..." Beat this scumbag to death! Since Abao came to this world, he has never hated a man so much. Monogamy is not realistic in this world, and it is normal for men to have three wives and four concubines in this dynasty. But the prince consort is different. He can divorce, part ways amicably, marry separately, and have nothing to do with each other. But the prince consort insisted on taking advantage of his aunt, and lied to his aunt that he was looking for women outside. Such a scumbag, who else should be punished! Changping picked up Abao with heartache, "My good Abao, are you venting your anger for your aunt?" The prince consort covered his head, angry but not daring to speak. That's the little princess, let alone hitting him with a cup, even if he was hit with a stone, he would have to bear it.
Princess Changping stared at her husband coldly, "You swore that you would be struck by lightning, does your oath still count? Even God doesn't believe you, how can I believe you?"
Princess Changping was almost angry to death.
These years, she was like a fool, believing whatever Shangguan Ze said. She
never doubted him.
In the past, whenever Shangguan Ze was short of money, she would give in as long as he spoke softly to her in front of her.
The two had not quarreled for many years, and their relationship had always been very stable.
Only now did she realize that this was not a stable relationship, but a stability that Shangguan Ze had deceived her into believing.
Shangguan Ze stared blankly, why didn't his coaxing work on Changping today?
Princess Changping looked at the tyrant who was about to explode with anger, "Since my brother suspects that the prince consort is involved in the imperial examination case, please investigate it thoroughly! Clear the prince consort's name."
Shangguan Ze: "
?" Innocent?
How could he be innocent?
The tyrant had already reached the limit of his patience and simply didn't need to endure it anymore. He kicked Shangguan Ze and said, "I will investigate this matter thoroughly. If the evidence is conclusive and you, Shangguan Ze, are really involved in this matter..."
Changping bowed and said, "The country has its own laws. My brother can handle this matter impartially. You don't need to worry about Changping."
...
On the way back to the palace, the tyrant sat in the carriage, and his breath became much heavier due to anger.
"Shangguan Ze is nothing!"
Being Xiao Ziran's backer only proves that he has bad character and is not careful in choosing friends.
But it is not enough to send him to jail.
As an emperor, he cannot do things based on suspicion, but must have evidence for everything.
But if Shangguan Ze was involved in the imperial examination, that would be another matter. He would be justified in killing Shangguan Ze.
