On the side of the National Master Hall, Shangguan Yan gradually "wake up", from waking up once a day, a quarter of an hour at a time, to more than an hour a day.
The monarch visited her twice, and Concubine Wang Xian and the others were so frightened that they couldn't sleep at night, lest Shangguan Yan would die with them if he couldn't think of it.
After discussing with her mother's family, Concubine Dong Chen was the first to think of a solution, and the news was soon discovered by Concubine Wang Xian's detailed work.
Concubine Wang Xian followed her example.
Almost on the same day, Concubine Yang De, who had been staring at Concubine Wang Xian, also knew what she was planning, and she also felt that this method was feasible.
Concubine Chen Shu and Feng Zhaoyi really didn't know what the three of them were busy with at first, but after paying attention to the movements of the three great families, they could almost make a guess.
At first, the five people did not admit it on the surface, but the more they checked later, the bigger the movement became.
So there was a scene where the five concubines and concubines gathered at the National Teacher Hall again at the end of July.
The palace people have been screened out.
Shangguan Yan sat on the chair, resisting the urge to hug half a watermelon and gnaw by spoonful, and looked at the five people sitting opposite him coldly and world-weary: "What are you doing here?"
As the most qualified concubine, Concubine Wang Xian was still the speaker among the five.
She said, "Shangguanyan, this palace knows that you don't really want to die. What you said last time was just to threaten a few of us."
Look at these beautiful words, if Shangguan Yan had not been prepared, she would have been deceived to the point where she would be so guilty.
Shangguan Yan said slowly: "Since you think I'm pretending, why are you coming to me? You don't need to worry about whether I have any of yours in my hands."
Concubine Dong Chen hummed: "Shangguanyan, we are thinking of watching you grow up, and we have some sympathy for you, so I'll do you a favor!"
Shangguan Yan smiled lightly: "Yo, one of you sings the red face and the other sings the white face, and I set up the stage here. Turn right when you go out, and walk slowly."
Several people were choked with red faces and thick necks.
Wasn't the former Shangguan Yan a reckless man who only knew how to do it? When did you become so eloquent
Concubine Wang Xian said: "Okay, since we are here, we sincerely want you to deal with it."
Since their words are useless to Shangguan Yan, they might as well open the skylight and speak eloquently.
Concubine Wang Xian continued: "Shangguanyan, you can put your own life and death aside, but can you also ignore the reputation of the Xuanyuan family? What happened to the Xuanyuan family back then? Those charges are indeed imposed by the major families, whether to let the Xuanyuan family last forever, or let the Xuanyuan family stink for thousands of years, you choose."
Shangguan Yan did not have the slightest mood swing because of this remark: "Concubine Wang Xian, now you are begging me, not me. You'd better put your posture right."
Concubine Wang Xian squeezed the veil tightly, almost poking holes in the veil.
She asked lightly, "It seems that you don't want those evidences anymore?"
Shangguan Yan said casually: "It's just evidence from a few noble families, it's meaningless."
The five secretly exchanged glances.
What happened to Shangguan Yan? How could they even guess that they were only going to hand over the criminal evidence of the other major families
They were thinking about how to protect their family, and then prayed that Shangguan Yan would be able to deceive a little more and trade the handle to them.
Shangguan Yan put the teacup in his hand on the table, and said with full aura: "Since you want to rehabilitate the Xuanyuan family, you must show all the evidence of the crimes. There is not much evidence for the more than 30 crimes of the Xuanyuan family! Don't challenge it! I'm patient, don't think you can bargain with me, maybe tomorrow, I want more than that!"
"You!" Concubine Chen Shu stomped her feet again in anger.
This result was not entirely unexpected. The worst plan they made at the time was that Shangguan Yan would ask them to collect all the evidence.
Concubine Wang Xian suppressed her anger and said sternly: "We can give you the evidence of the crime, but you must also bring some of our signed documents!"
That kind of thing is useless long ago, and it can be given to you at any time.
Three hours later, Xiao Heng next door and Lao Jijiu checked all the account books, letters and other evidence, and confirmed that it was true.
The transaction is completed.
The five concubine Wang Xian left in a hurry.
These evidences are very involved, and Shangguan Yan would be unbelievable if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes.
"Even the mighty general is involved." The enemy can never hurt himself, and what is really chilling is often the betrayal of relatives and friends.
Shangguan Yan murmured, "General Wei Wu is my uncle's subordinate, and he also taught Xuanyuan Sheng's martial arts. Who would have thought that he would burn down the Xuanyuan family's granary for his own sake?"
Xiao Heng said with relief: "It's all over, this kind of thing won't happen again in the future."
"Mm." Shangguan Yan restrained the melancholy emotions that surged up in his heart, and said to his son, "These evidences should be enough to rehabilitate the Xuanyuan family."
Xiao Heng paused: "Not yet, there is no evidence for the crime of treason."
Because the crime of treason is real.
Unless the monarch is willing to admit that he has calculated the Xuanyuan family from it, the Xuanyuan family was forced by him to go against it.
But this is simply not possible.
Xiao Heng said: "It's better than this, mother dedicate these evidences to the monarch as your loyalty and filial piety, in exchange for the position of the princess. Don't worry about the rest in advance, wait for the mother to become the princess, and then find a way to take away the real power of the monarch, It is still possible to rehabilitate the Xuanyuan family."
Shangguan Yan nodded in agreement: "I see, I will bring these evidences when it is dawn, and enter the palace to face the saint."
-
Royal Palace.
The monarch was about to rest when Zhang Dequan walked over quickly with small steps, glanced at the little princess who was sleeping soundly on the cot, and reported in a low voice, "Your Majesty, the Han family in the cold palace is clamoring to see you."
The king said in a cold voice, "How many times has she been here?"
Zhang Dequan didn't dare to answer the question, so he just reported in embarrassment: "Han said that she has a secret of the Empress in her hand."
These are the original words of the little palace maid, and Zhang Dequan added fuel to it without a word.
When he heard that it was about Empress Xuanyuan, the monarch still patiently went to the cold palace.
Concubine Wan has now been demoted to a noble person and lives on the west side of the cold palace, while the Han family is imprisoned on the east side of the cold palace.
The monarch went directly to the Han family.
Although he was put into the cold palace, but if he wanted to face the Holy Spirit, Han still dressed himself very decently, but what about how decent he was? The king didn't even look at her.
Sitting on the old stone bench, she smiled at the monarch and said, "Your Majesty, the concubine has made tea, and I wonder if your majesty is used to drinking the rough tea from the cold palace?"
The king frowned and said, "What do you want?"
Han shi said gently: "Your Majesty, are you here just for the secret related to the Empress? Your Majesty won't ask whether your concubines are doing well these days when they were put into the cold palace? Your Majesty, you are so cruel."
Only when a man loves a woman will he pity her weakness.
And when a person has no feelings for her, she is left with nothing but fussing.
The king's eyes grew impatient.
Han shi didn't seem to notice it, and said to himself: "Yes, your Majesty only has Xuanyuan Hanyan in his heart, why have there been other sisters in the harem? But even against your beloved, His Majesty has to be cruel. Hand. Your Majesty's heart... is actually only himself."
The king said impatiently: "If you have nothing to say, I will leave!"
Mrs. Han poured herself a cup of tea: "The queen did tell her concubine the truth before she died. She said that she regretted marrying Your Majesty. If possible, she begged me to find a way to prevent her from being buried with His Majesty in the imperial tomb. She doesn't want to meet His Majesty again on her way to Huangquan."
The king's heart trembled fiercely.
He knew that Xuanyuan Hanyan hated him, but he didn't expect to hate him so much!
Han sneered: "Your Majesty, is your heart hurting? Or, Your Majesty doesn't want to believe what the concubine said? Also, when has Your Majesty believed in the concubine? Even this time the concubine was framed so obviously, Your Majesty still chooses his heart. Blind and blind."
"Until tonight, the concubine has been waiting, waiting for your majesty to come down to see the concubine. The concubine doesn't want to go this far, your majesty, you forced the concubine!"
"My concubine came to the palace with her admiration for His Majesty. Over the years, Chen Concubine has been looking forward to becoming a real husband and wife with His Majesty day and night. What did Xuanyuan Hanyan do? Your majesty's harem is full of The concubine took care of it! The concubine thought that she had some weight in His Majesty's heart, but in the end it was discovered that His Majesty was just reluctant to be tired to Xuanyuan Hanyan."
"But that woman will never look back at Your Majesty. The concubine hates her! So the concubine has someone kidnapped Shangguan Yan! Sell her to the Yaxing and make her a slave girl!"
The king's heart trembled: "It's you?!"
Han shi smiled and said, "It's a concubine!"
The monarch was furious, strode forward, and grabbed her neck: "I want to kill you!"
Han shi was so caught that she couldn't breathe, her face turned purple, but she smiled grimly: "It's too late... Your Majesty... It's too late... You... can't kill your concubine!"
As soon as she finished speaking, a shadow fell from the sky, and a knife slashed the back of the king's neck.
The monarch's body was suddenly paralyzed, he let go of Han's hand and fell to the ground in a daze.
He saw the hem of the black cloak, and also saw a pair of black steps inlaid with gold, and then his eyelids sank and he fainted completely.
The Yan Kingdom chapter begins to wrap up.
