When one person does this, there is another person.
In the end, everyone asked for the antidote, thinking that if they were convicted, they would not be the only ones to be unlucky.
The Holy Spirit has said that they will not be killed, and even if they are convicted, they should only suffer for a while.
Just get over it.
It's better than being poisoned and dying without knowing when.
Even those who came voluntarily to be 'victims', in order to hide that they came on their own, also asked for the antidote with a grimace.
They were not poisoned and were not worried about dying from the poison. But now, they could only admit that they had framed the princess.
I feel bitter in my heart.
Everyone recruited red lips and white teeth, and Man Lan also recruited, so those few special actors couldn't make trouble.
Those who were watching the excitement did not dare to say a word, but these 'victims' took the antidote, confessed, and were taken away by the soldiers.
Lock them up first and then convict them.
There were also family members among the spectators, but they did not dare to stand up and stop him.
How dare the people fight with the officials
Besides, these are the son-in-law of the family, and we cannot let a family fall into crisis just for the sake of a son-in-law.
Men's status in the family is not high.
Besides, when Shao Xinglan heard Manlan's confession that she was from the Prime Minister's Mansion, she wanted to leave here.
But when I looked back, I didn't know when the people of the Holy Spirit had surrounded them tightly.
She could only bite the bullet and stay here.
She couldn't figure out why Man Lan betrayed her.
She would understand it if she had tried all kinds of torture from the Queen's men.
Manlan was a human being and couldn't bear it. Besides, Shao Xinglan hadn't taken Manlan into the backyard yet and hadn't fallen in love with her yet, so how could he have the strength to bite the bullet and keep silent for her
Although Shao Xinglan poisoned Man Lan, he had another master from the beginning, and there were more than one poison on his body. If he could betray his previous master, why couldn't he betray Man Lan
Suffering from torture, Manlan now wants to die.
A humble life is, in the final analysis, a weapon for the powerful, and living is to sacrifice one's life for others.
Why bother to suffer this torture again
Meng Li looked in the direction of Shao Xinglan and said softly to the queen:
"Mother, I look familiar to that person."
The Queen followed Meng Li's gaze and said to the people around her:
"Bring that man here."
When the people were ordered to go, the Queen said to Meng Li angrily:
"I really don't know what happened to me. My eyes and mouth work well, but my brain doesn't work well."
Meng Li put his fist to his lips in embarrassment. The Queen meant that she had strong limbs but a simple mind.
Shao Xinglan saw people coming towards her and felt that the situation was not good, but she couldn't leave now.
He could only let himself be brought to the Queen.
When he arrived in front of the Queen, Shao Xinglan's legs went weak and he knelt down.
The Queen asked:
"Shao Aiqing, what are you doing here?"
Shao Xinglan turned pale with fright, pretended to be calm, and said to the Queen:
"I'm passing by, passing by."
The Queen said meaningfully:
"Passing by, if I guessed correctly, you should be on duty?"
Shao Xinglan immediately admitted his mistake: "Your Majesty makes atonement because I neglected my duty. I should be punished. I will go and ask for it."
The officials behind the Queen kept looking at Shao Xinglan. Man Lanke had previously summoned the Prime Minister's Mansion.
It's really intriguing to see people from the Prime Minister's Mansion here again.
The Queen shook her head and said:
"Shao Aiqing's behavior is suspicious. I think we should investigate thoroughly. I will first remove Shao Xinglan from all posts and temporarily take him into custody."
Master Xing received the order and immediately asked someone to carry Shao Xinglan down.
Before leaving, Shao Xinglan glanced at Meng Li with great reluctance.
As for the special actors arranged by Shao Xinglan, the Queen specifically ordered that these people be held incommunicado.
The ministers who followed the queen out followed the queen back.
When the prime minister heard about this, he quickly ran to the queen to apologize.
She had already smelled a different atmosphere. It was Xinglan who did most of the things, and Manlan also obeyed Xinglan's orders.
Logically speaking, even if the mastermind behind the scenes was to be revealed, it would still be Shao Xinglan.
The crime of framing the princess is not a big one, and it will not lead to the destruction of the whole family, but one person will certainly not escape death.
But if this crime falls on him, even if he is lucky enough to escape death, the Prime Minister's Mansion will decline.
It's hard to turn over.
Because the Prime Minister's Mansion is now supported by himself alone, and the children have not yet matured.
But if it falls on the head of Xinglan and abandons Xinglan, the impact on the Prime Minister's Mansion is not particularly great. It may damage the vitality, but it is not a fatal injury.
Do you really want to give up your favorite daughter
When choosing between a person and a family, rationally, the minister knew how to choose, but emotionally, she couldn't accept it.
At the same time, she felt a little angry, wondering why she had been deceived by a young girl.
She was not unaware of her daughter's arrogance.
I was careless if I failed to dissuade him in time...
Kneeling on the ground with snot and tears, he said that he was guilty and asked His Majesty to convict him.
The Queen asked indifferently:
"You keep shouting that you are guilty, but tell me, what is your crime?"
Naturally, the Prime Minister could not admit this, so he said:
"I am not a good person and have formed a grudge with others. In order to plot against me, the other party actually implicated the concubine. Because the concubine has suffered, I am naturally guilty!"
The queen was amused by the prime minister and said:
"Shao Aiqing, you are still as smart as before."
She brushed the matter aside and immediately said that she had been framed and someone put the blame on her.
But the key point is that we cannot directly punish the Prime Minister now. The Prime Minister has a woman who holds military power, and the Prime Minister also has military power in his hands.
In addition, the prime minister has many party members in Beijing. If he does not control the intensity of his move, he may encounter a strong backlash.
Besides, if the minister suddenly falls, another force will inevitably be supported to maintain a balance with the current people who are opposite to the minister.
Wherever you can find such a person at once, it will definitely be inappropriate if you let someone reach the sky in one step.
Indispensable in the court is the art of balancing.
The Queen sighed quietly.
Take your time, the power of ministers must be gradually weakened, and you should also give yourself time to cultivate people.
Meng Li, on the other hand, returned to the Princess's Mansion.
I went back with great fanfare. After I returned, I quickly spread the word about what happened today to create public opinion and tell everyone that I was framed.
The Queen personally came forward to make the decision for her and clear her grievances. No one would say anything bad about her at this time.
Even the other princesses who are eyeing the position of princess will not make any move at this time as long as they are not stupid.
This is equivalent to singing against the Queen.
Besides, what if I make some bad remarks about the concubine now and get fixed by the empress instead
After all, if you get involved at this time, you will be suspected of being the instigator.
Public opinion moves as fast as a tornado.
Although those 'victims' were locked up by the Queen, their families did not dare to say anything.
