Xiao Yanjun really didn't expect that Zhao Xingwen would show up halfway, but he said something passionately that the soldiers should have done in the first place, and incited the common people to curse and curse...
When he heard this, he couldn't bear it anymore, and turned to Kong Changhui with a dark face and an unhappy tone: "Are these three trials such a child's play? How can we let the people make such a noise outside?"
Jing Qibin, the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment, and Feng Zhen, the imperial doctor, saw Xiao Yanjun angrily criticizing the people in the hall, and couldn't help but give way to both sides, so that his direction could be pointed at Kong Changhui accurately.
Feng Zhen saw Xiao Yanjun glance at him out of the corner of his eye, and quickly agreed with him and said to Kong Changhui: "His Royal Highness King Yu is right, Mr. Kong, please take care of it."
Jing Qibin, on the other hand, remained silent, watching his eyes, nose, and heart, not looking at anyone, just watching from the sidelines as steady as a rock.
If Xiao Yanjun hadn't spoken, Kong Changhui would have never stopped him. This was the most pleasant thing he had heard since the beginning of the morning. It made people feel relaxed and energetic.
It was a pity that Xiao Yanjun had already spoken. He couldn't let it go anymore, so he pretended to scold: "Be quiet."
Xiao Yanjun could obviously see how perfunctory he was, and he was not in the mood to waste it at this moment. Especially when he caught a glimpse of the faint sneer on the corner of Xia Chu's mouth, he wanted to tear it to pieces with his own hands.
Therefore, he asked Tian Shu with an impatient tone: "Have you finished speaking? If you have any evidence, bring it out."
After Xiao Yanjun said this, the people started to agree: "That's right. If you have evidence, take it. The more you make it, the more outrageous it becomes..."
Seeing his displeasure, Tian Shu quickly replied to the court: "The common people have witnesses, and the witnesses have physical evidence in their hands!"
The voice of the people fell silent again. Corpse burning, collaboration with the enemy, and rebellion, no matter which one, was a major event that caused a sensation in the capital. If evidence could be produced...
Xia Chu sneered when he heard this, thinking that the preparations were quite complete, and there were witnesses and evidence gathered. Could it be that the half-dead Guo Weidong was taken out of the Zhao family army to frame him
That's impossible. It's impossible for Bingwen and Xiao Mubai not to have heard about Han Yang...
Xia Chu couldn't help but wait and see what kind of witness could withstand his overwhelming frame-up.
"Who is the witness? I sent someone to summon him to bring physical evidence for confrontation." Kong Changhui asked in a deep voice.
His heart sank. Bingwen had indeed expected everything, but he didn't know if he knew who this witness was.
Thinking of this, he glanced at Bingwen secretly, and saw that his expression was solemn and nervous, and his heart became even more tense.
"Sir, this witness is in the hall." After Tian Shu finished speaking, people outside the hall looked in all directions in the hall.
Everyone in the hall focused their attention on the courtiers on the right. Even the courtiers were sizing each other up, and speculations came and went.
"is it you?"
"It's not you?"
"It's definitely not me..."
Jie Jiming and Xu Wanjun looked at everyone sharply, but all the ministers looked at each other blankly.
Kong Changhui slapped the alarm in his hand and scolded sternly: "Damage, who is the witness you are talking about?"
"it's me."
Suddenly a delicate female voice sounded in the hall.
Everyone was still looking for where the soft whisper came from, and saw a woman walking out from the innermost corner on the left.
Xia Chu followed Xiao Yanjun's gaze and looked over. He was stunned on the spot, his face full of disbelief...
How could it be her
Why her!
Xia Chu's legs were a little weak and his body was trembling slightly. Zhao Xingwen stretched out his hand to support his back, allowing him to barely stand upright.
Su Qianle was seen moving lightly, and Bingwen's hand was holding her wrist.
Bingwen, Shi Zhongfei and Xu Wenlan were the first to hear it.
Their hearts were shaken to the same extent as Xia Chu. The three of them turned to look at Su Qianle with dumbfounded eyes, only to see that she looked indifferent and was about to walk out from inside.
Bingwen grabbed her wrist, and the strength of his grip was a bit heavy. Su Qianle's originally slender and white wrist turned red as his knuckles turned white.
Bingwen didn't ask why, because it was too late, so he could only plead to Su Qianle in a humble tone: "Qianle, don't..."
Xu Wenlan didn't come back to her senses until Bingwen spoke, pushed her and cursed: "Su Qianle, are you crazy?"
Even Shi Zhongfei complained: "Miss Su, what are you talking about?"
But Bingwen stretched out his hand to silence the two of them. He couldn't help but add more force to pull Su Qianle to his side, with a sad trembling in his voice: "Qianle, what should you do if you ask your brother?"
Xiao Yanjun saw Su Qianle being pulled back by Bingwen, frowned and scolded Kong Changhui: "Master Kong, why did you let the people who disturbed the order in, and didn't rush out quickly."
Kong Changhui had been dumbfounded for a long time. He only came to his senses after being scolded like this. He had no choice but to wink at Guan Xi, suppressing the shock in his heart and said to Xiao Yanjun: "There may be some misunderstanding. That one is Mr. Xu’s young master.”
Xiao Yanjun naturally knew Xu Wenlan. When he saw Guan Xi go over and let go of Bingwen's hand, he didn't care about selling Xu Wanjun to save face.
After Guan Xi passed by, he broke it twice but still didn't open it until he whispered to Bingwen: "Master, don't make it difficult for Master Kong."
Bingwen's stiff arms slowly let go.
Su Qianle looked back at him and said calmly: "Isn't it just right that he is not in Beijing now?"
Bingwen looked at her back, feeling a sense of powerlessness that had not appeared in his heart for a long time. He didn't know what Su Qianle would say.
But no matter what she said, it would be extremely detrimental to Xia Chu...
Zhao Xingwen supported Xia Chu with one hand and watched Su Qianle walk into the hall. He spat at her angrily: "Wen Shu is so blind that she treats someone like you as a sister."
When Xiao Yanjun saw this, he yelled at Zhao Xingwen: "You can bully weak women in public just because you are a general? Is this what General Zhao taught you?"
Kong Changhui was afraid that Zhao Xingwen would be impulsive and the two would conflict again, so he quickly advised him: "General Zhao, since there is nothing wrong, please step aside for now."
Zhao Xingwen was about to speak, but Xia Chu took his wrist and said softly: "I can hold on, you go down first."
Zhao Xingwen saw that he pushed him away and stood alone.
Although Xia Chu looked at Su Qianle with surprise and doubt in his eyes, he was obviously much calmer than before.
Seeing that he was not moving, Xia Chu frowned and pushed him again. Zhao Xingwen had no choice but to reluctantly walk towards Bingwen's place...
