Chapter 388 A thorough investigation of the past
The wind picked up, and there was a gust of wind strong enough to stir up dust and sand on the roadside. This gust of wind blew the clothes and hair of the people present swaying, and they were in a trance like immortals who had fallen into the mortal world.
If you don't listen to what they are arguing about.
The imperial concubine's clothes were particularly thin, and the strong wind outlined her thin figure, but she stood upright, as if the storm could not shake her.
The slender vines exerted their most endless power at this moment.
The emperor in the center of the crowd looked at her, his eyes dazed, angry, and wavering.
Li Fuquan lowered his head and said nothing. The second prince looked resentful and looked at the imperial concubine with hatred in his eyes.
Beside him, there was an unnamed member of the Royal Forest Army, pressing the hilt of his sword, as if he was just waiting for the emperor's order.
The air around him seemed to freeze, and Wang Yi knew that he should say something at this time.
"Your Majesty, it's windy. Put on some clothes so you don't catch a cold."
As he spoke, he motioned with his eyes to Li Fuquan on the side to move quickly. Only then did Li Fuquan come to his senses and quickly went to get the emperor's cloak.
This slightly old and rich voice sounded. The emperor slowly turned his head and looked at King Yi and the others with complicated emotions. His dry lips opened. He wanted to say something, but his throat was too dry.
As for his inability to make a sound.
Pei Mo looked at the emperor. This confrontation seemed to have made the emperor in front of him ten years older, which made him feel inexplicably sad.
But the sadness in his heart only lasted for a few seconds and then disappeared. Strangely enough, even though the person in front of him was his biological father, Pei Mo didn't feel very close to him. He had never felt anything mysterious about the emperor.
Blood bond.
Speaking of hatred, Pei Mo actually didn't hate the emperor that much. Those childhood memories of his father had long since disappeared, leaving only the past of him fighting bloody battles on the battlefield alone.
Those hatreds have long been forgotten over time. Now facing his father, Pei Mo only feels disappointed, but it doesn't matter whether he is disappointed or not. From now on, he will only live well as the general of the country.
That Sheng Xiujing has been dead for a long time, what does it have to do with him.
He is Pei Mo, Murong Qing's Pei Mo.
Thinking like this, Pei Mo's heart suddenly became less heavy. He took a step forward, took the cloak handed over by Li Fuquan with his own hands, and put it on the emperor's shoulders in front of everyone.
"Your Majesty, take care of your dragon body."
Pei Mo thought to himself that this was his filial piety. From now on, he would walk on his Yangguan Road and I would walk on my single-plank bridge.
The moment the cloak was put on his body, the emperor felt a slight weight on his shoulders. It was a pair of hands pressing on his shoulders. He looked up and saw a familiar face, "Old... it's General Pei."
After saying this, the emperor pulled the corners of his lips and smiled bitterly. He was really stunned. For a moment, he actually mistook Pei Mo for his second son.
Thinking of the second prince, the emperor's face turned cold again.
This treacherous and treacherous son did not come to tell him the truth when he knew it. Instead, he selfishly concealed the truth. Why, did this treacherous son think that by hiding this matter, he would be able to secure his position as the crown prince?
Thinking of his own power, the regret in the emperor's heart was knocked back to the bottom. He glared at the second prince with an angry look, and then turned back to look at the concubine who was in a somewhat crazy state.
The imperial concubine knew that there was no room for recovery, but it didn't matter. She didn't regret doing this, so she met the emperor's eyes calmly.
"Come here, capture this vicious and vicious woman Lin, and kill her on the spot. No need to show mercy!"
As he said that, the emperor gathered up his cloak and felt more and more that the imperial concubine in front of him was vicious. In the past, Concubine Ru treated her so well, but she watched helplessly as Huo Lianjun brutalized Concubine Ru.
He seemed to have completely forgotten that he had tacitly allowed Huo Lianjun to find out about the affair between the Lu family and Ru Fei. He seemed to have forgotten that he was too weak to even ask why after learning about Ru Fei's death.
He has always deceived himself and others.
When Li Fuquan heard this, he immediately took a step forward impatiently, his hand holding the whisk trembling.
King Yi saw his intention and stretched out his hand to stop him.
"Your Majesty, please show mercy."
What King Yi didn't expect was that it would be Pei Mo who would plead for the concubine.
Pei Mo knelt down in front of the emperor and said, "Please listen to what I have to say."
But he couldn't let the imperial concubine be killed. Murong Qing had promised the imperial concubine that as long as she told the whole story clearly, he would save her life. Naturally, he didn't care about the imperial concubine's life. What he cared about was that this was the promise made by the imperial concubine.
Seeing him kneeling down, Li Fuquan and the emperor were shocked.
"Your Majesty, we have just dealt with the Queen now. If we are dealing with a noble concubine, people who don't know the truth may start talking about it again. The death of the noble concubine is a small matter, but the rumors among the people that the emperor is cruel and unkind are a big deal. In short, please think again, Your Majesty."
Pei Mo's words were so resounding that the emperor fell silent immediately, lowering his eyes and becoming anxious.
At this time, King Yi also lifted up his robe and knelt down, "I beg the emperor to think twice. The emperor's execution of members of the Huo family has aroused dissatisfaction among the nobles of the family, especially the scholars in the world. They are mostly bewitched by the Huo family's staff. Now
Many scholars have written articles about Your Majesty's attempt to weaken the power of the family and become dictatorial.
The Lin family behind the imperial concubine is the Xinglin family, and they have also met many scholars. If the imperial concubine is dealt with now, I am afraid that the emperor will be criticized by thousands of scholars all over the world."
King Yi knew best what the emperor cared about, and his words immediately penetrated the emperor's heart.
The emperor's face was solemn, and he glanced at the imperial concubine unwillingly, obviously not wanting to let her go like this.
Seeing this situation, Pei Mo's eyes darkened and he continued, "Your Majesty, I thought that if this matter can still be brought up again after so many years, there must be many grievances involved, so why not take this opportunity to investigate thoroughly?
It also means that in a few years, someone will repeat the same trick again. Instead of burying the past, it is better to strike while the iron is hot and give an explanation to the people in the world. It will not be too late to deal with the imperial concubine then."
Hearing this, the emperor nodded unconsciously, and finally he made up his mind and waved his hand, "That's it, push Mrs. Lin back to the palace and wait for her fate. The death of Concubine Ru must also be investigated thoroughly!"
"yes!"
The Imperial Guards took advantage of the situation and grabbed the imperial concubine. The imperial concubine did not struggle and just resigned herself to being tied up. After that, no one noticed that she looked back at Pei Mo and gave a wry smile as if she had survived the disaster.
It's really ironic that the person who saved his life in the end was not the son he raised with all the hardships, but an enemy who wanted to tear his skin off.
She had killed Pei Mo's unborn child in the past. Pei Mo should have been looking forward to her death, but he could plead for her regardless of his past grudges.
At this moment, the imperial concubine's guilt reached the extreme.
