As soon as King Nanping said this, everyone in the hall was in an uproar, and many ministers secretly raised their heads to glance at Bai Xiyu who was beside Meng Jing.
All the people in the court whispered to each other and talked a lot.
Although Bai Xiyu knew in his heart that it wasn't his fault, if Meng Jing didn't speak, he couldn't speak without permission. Who knew what Meng Jing had in mind.
After a while, seeing the voice of the court's discussion getting quieter, Meng Jing turned to Bai Xiyu who was beside him and asked leisurely, "Xiao Yuzi, what do you say about this?"
Bai Xiyu stepped forward and knelt down in front of Meng Jing with a plop: "Slave... Slave..."
He lowered his head and talked about the servant for a long time, but he didn't say why.
Seeing this, the King of Nanping shouted even more: "Eunuch Yu has nothing to say! The imperial physicians all said that the child's arm is afraid that it will never recover in this life. The emperor must decide for the old minister!"
But Meng Jing ignored King Nanping's cry. He stretched out his hand and raised Bai Xiyu's head: "I just want to ask you, did you break the arm of Prince Nanping?"
Did I break it? You don’t know what to do!
Bai Xiyu was forced to look up at Meng Jing pitifully, and replied: "Return to Your Majesty, there is no servant."
After hearing Bai Xiyu's words, Meng Jing showed a slight smile, turned his head and said to Nanping Wang at the court: "My lord heard clearly, but little Yuzi didn't break the prince's arm."
Everyone in the court looked at Meng Jing's actions and dared not make a sound, only the King of Nanping protested with reason, and said righteously: "Your Majesty, you are the king of a country, how can you believe what a eunuch said!"
Meng Jing squinted his eyes, looked at King Nanping in the court, and asked, "Oh? Then should I trust the prince?"
King Nanping replied: "Return to Your Majesty, many guards in Tianyi Mansion in Liuyinfang can testify for the child. It is indeed Eunuch Yu who killed the child."
"Tianyi Mansion?" Meng Jing snorted and asked, "My lord explained to me, how did the people from Tianyi Mansion go to Liuyinfang?"
"This, this..." King Nanping realized the seriousness of the matter at this time. He only wanted to seek justice for his youngest son, but forgot that the people in Tianyi Mansion could not be transferred casually, and he felt uneasy. , hesitated for a long time and couldn't speak.
"What's the matter? Why didn't the lord stop talking? I really want to know why my guards from the Tianyi Mansion went to Liuyinfang, and they have something to do with your son of King Nanping! Doesn't the King of Nanping need to explain this to me? !" Meng Jing's voice didn't have any ups and downs, and even a little anger could not be heard in it, but it was still enough to make Nanping Wang terrified.
The king of Nanping knelt in the court and dared not speak.
Needle dropping could be heard in the main hall, and everyone dared not speak for fear of getting burned. But since ancient times, there have always been a few people in the imperial court who are not afraid of death. They don't care whether the emperor is wise or not, they only want to be righteous and speak freely. If such a person catches up with a fatuous monarch and is in a decadent world, he will definitely be able to win the hearts of the people, and he might be able to live forever, but in a prosperous age, such a person is the emperor The evil in the heart, wishing to kill the existence of Kuai Kuai, no one would like people who always contradict themselves, and the emperor is no exception.
However, Meng Jing, the emperor, lacks emotions, and there are very few people or things that can bear his likes and dislikes. Therefore, most of the officials in the court feel very good about themselves. Although the emperor is occasionally cruel, as long as the cruel object It's not me, the emperor didn't notice it for a while, the emperor himself is still a good emperor, besides, people are not sages, who can be blameless
So after a long time, a middle-aged man in a dark blue official robe stood up among the ministers, saluted the king at the court, and said: "Your Majesty, it is really wrong for people from Tianyi Mansion to interfere in this matter, but Eunuch Yu It’s just a small eunuch in charge of the palace, who dared to beat the prince, it’s really disrespectful, this matter is of great importance, if it is not severely punished, what is the etiquette of the ancestors? I hope your majesty will handle it carefully.”
Bai Xiyu's popularity in the court is really not a good word, but the reason is also made by himself.
Those people in the imperial court who were determined to gain power, in order to show some prominence in front of Meng Jing, had spent a lot of money and prepared big gifts for the only father-in-law who could talk to the emperor, but it was of no use. Well, Bai Xiyu has always adhered to the principle of only taking money and doing nothing, cheating them is a huge sum of money.
And those honest and honest officials who claim to be loyal to the monarchy originally could not understand him as a eunuch supervisor accepting bribes and meddling in the affairs of the previous court. In addition, he has a soft appearance, his face is like the moon of the Mid-Autumn Festival, his complexion is like the flowers of spring dawn, his lips are red and his teeth are white, His face was like peaches and plums, and he was not a serious eunuch at first glance. Now that they have the opportunity to trip up this dead eunuch that they hadn't seen for a long time, of course both parties will not let it go.
So within a short while, all the officials in the court knelt down and said in unison: "I hope your Majesty will handle it carefully."
Meng Jing's complexion remained unchanged, his right hand was lightly placed on Bai Xiyu's hat, he grabbed the tassel and played with it for a while, then scanned all the officials kneeling in the court, and it took a long time before he said: "In that case, Xuan Tianyi People from the government come in."

Bai Xiyu knelt down in front of Meng Jing obediently, staring at the golden dragon pattern on Meng Jing's black robe with his head down. He didn't have to be afraid, anyway, he didn't hit that person anyway, it was just the one that Meng Jing put on his head. The hand really made him panic.
Not long after, the leader of Liuyinfang that day stepped into the Yizheng Hall accompanied by the call of the eunuchs outside. He walked straight to the court without squinting, then raised his robe and knelt down to the man in the court. Saluting, he shouted: "Slave Yang Li'an kowtowed to my emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
Meng Jing was not in a hurry to get Yang Li'an to stand up and look up, but asked Nanping Wang who was beside Yang Li'an, "Why don't you tell me how your son was beaten in Liuyinfang yesterday, and how did you put it on?" Have all the people from Tianyi Mansion been recruited?"
"Return to Your Majesty, according to my son, he was listening to music in Liuyinfang yesterday..." King Nanping didn't know whether he really knew what happened in Liuyinfang, or he pretended to know. In short, I added fuel and vinegar, to the effect that Eunuch Yu beat up his son for no reason, because he was a celebrity in front of the emperor, and the son of King Nanping never dared to fight back, so he was beaten very miserably .
Its central idea can be summed up as Bai Xiyu seeks troubles for nothing, and the son bears the humiliation.
Listen, how well that is said! Those who heard it were sad, and those who saw it shed tears, Bai Xiyu felt that he had committed a heinous crime. The ministers behind King Nanping couldn't help but stepped forward to comfort the old father whose son had been wronged and had nowhere to redress his grievances.
Although there are some exaggerations and fictions in it, only Yang Li'an and Bai Xiyu can explain this clearly in front of the emperor. Yang Li'an had chatted with the King of Nanping for a long time before coming, and it was self-evident who he would favor later. As for Mr. Yu, a murderer, everything he said should be wrong.
Therefore, King Nanping was not worried at all that the exaggerations in his words would be exposed. This time, he would definitely let the dead eunuch who killed his son fall into a tussle!
After King Nanping finished speaking, Meng Jing chuckled and asked Yang Li'an, "Is the prince telling the truth? Guard Yang."
Yang Li'an lowered his head and replied, "Return to Your Majesty, yes."
As soon as Yang Li'an said this, although he couldn't explain why the people from Tianyi Mansion appeared in Liuyinfang, they could almost convict Bai Xiyu. All the officials in the court looked at each other and smiled knowingly Come.
Just when everyone thought they were finally going to use this opportunity to make Eunuch Yu fall out of favor, they suddenly heard Meng Jing say to Yang Li'an: "Guard Yang raised his head to look at me, and repeat what he just said." (83 Chinese.83 .)
