Chapter 49 The death penalty can be spared

Concubine Du also stepped forward and pleaded in a low voice in front of the emperor, "This Yuyan is still young and ignorant. Maybe she just wants to tease Miss Lu, so the emperor will bypass her this time."

When Concubine Du stepped forward to plead with mercy, she glanced at Mrs. Lu, naturally hoping that Mrs. Lu would plead with her to plead with the emperor, but Mrs. Lu always sat in her seat without any intention of pleading for Du Yuyan.

That's true, Mrs. Lu also experienced a moment of shock. Just when she found out that it was Du Yuyan who brought poison into the palace, Mrs. Lu began to panic, and beads of sweat the size of beans on her forehead kept flowing out.

She was worried that Du Yuyan would give her her, but Du Yuyan was burned by the poison, and it was really painful. She still had the intention to tell everyone about the origin of the poison.

Mrs. Lu stared at Du Yuyan on the ground with wide eyes, and turned her body slightly, trying to use the body of the person in front to block Du Yuyan's vision and prevent her from seeing herself in panic, so as not to...

"My mother, are you still fine?" The emperor looked at the Empress Dowager and said softly, then slowly turned around and looked at Du Yuyan who was struggling on the ground.

"Today I will spare your life for the sake of His Highness the Khitan Prince and General Qin. However, the crime of death can be spared from the crime of living. I will drag it down and throw it out of the palace and never enter the palace." The emperor said loudly.

"Thank you, your wise man." The Khitan prince and Du Yuyan said almost at the same time.

After all, Qin Muyu has been a meritorious minister. Besides, he has just returned from the border school. Du Yuyan is Qin Muyu's original wife, so the emperor naturally wants to give him some shame.

As for the Khitan prince, although there were occasional wars between the Celestial Dynasty and the Khitan, the Khitan prince went to Beijing to attend the birthday of the Queen Mother, and the emperor could not offend the Khitan prince for his own personal hatred.

After thinking about it, he decided to exempt Du Yuyan from his death penalty. After all, he almost injured the Empress Dowager, and the death penalty could not be escaped. He ordered the palace guards to blame him for fifty and throw him out of the palace.

The Khitan prince pleaded for Du Yuyan because he missed the tenderness of Du Yuyan. After a night of passion, if Du Yuyan was beheaded by the emperor, it would be a bit regretful, and he was still thinking...

This should be Du Yuyan's bed skills that saved his life.

As for Qin Muyu, he did not want Du Yuyan to be alive at all. He would like to die, but he would like to say that he would draw a clear line between him and the Du family and would not be affected by Lord Du's affairs.

But things went against my wishes, Huang Huang did not kill Du Yuyan.

Looking at Du Yuyan's thigh, which was already half-destroyed, Qin Muyu suddenly felt a little disgusted and silently said in his heart, "What's the use of keeping this? It will only affect appetite and waste food."

After all, the emperor's order was difficult to violate. Qin Muyu thanked the emperor and stepped down, watching Du Yuyan being dragged out by the guards.

"Mother, I will send you back to Cining Palace and go to rest for a while." The emperor was still worried about the Empress Dowager's health. After all, the Empress Dowager had been insomnia for many days and was in poor spirits. She was frightened just now.

"The emperor is intent. Today's birthday is rare for everyone to gather together. It's just now that I, the old birthday star, left the seat a bit unreasonable." The empress dowager said with a smile.

"Miss Lu, come up quickly and take your mother's pulse." The emperor said to Liu Qingyan.

Liu Qingyan quickly walked forward, took the empress dowager's pulse, and then rubbed the empress dowager's shoulders with the technique she learned from elementary school.

After a moment, the Empress Dowager, who was originally frowning, relaxed her expression and looked back at Liu Qing and said softly, "This girl is really something that people like, it's rare."

Seeing the Empress Dowager smiling happily, the Emperor breathed a deep breath and nodded constantly.

Song Jingchen, who had not spoken in the sword, suddenly saw Liu Qingyan rubbing the empress dowager's shoulders as she suddenly lit up, as if something was ringing.

"My dear friends quickly enter the seat. It was just a small episode just now. I almost misunderstood this Miss Lu." The emperor said loudly as he looked at the people in front of the palace.

"Your Majesty is relieved. This witch must have revenged for her father being imprisoned by the emperor. Fortunately, this trick failed and the palace cannot be allowed to be allowed to enter any of the palace in the future." Lu Guozheng walked forward slowly and said.

"What Lu Aiqing said is very much. I also like you as a daughter." The emperor said with a laugh.

Suddenly the emperor's face darkened, and he turned to look at Jiu Qiansui beside him, "You are responsible for the power of the palace guards, but today is the birthday of the mother, and he almost caused a disaster to the demon. Do you know that he was guilty?"

Faced with the emperor's stern reprimand, Jiu Qiansui quickly walked up to the emperor and leaned against the ground in front of the hall. "The old slave's crime is that the old slave did not check carefully, so he asked the demon girl to carry such poisonous substances on the hall."

"It's good to know the crime. I think you have served me for so many years without any mistakes. Today I will not punish you. It's just that the power of the palace guards will no longer be fully responsible. In the future, you and Lord Lu will be responsible for half of each."

The emperor took the opportunity to take half of the power of guard in Jiu Qiansui's hand. He originally wanted to take all of it, but no matter who he puts the power of guard in the palace, the emperor was a little worried.

After the assassination of the crown prince, assassins broke into the palace many times. The emperor had lost confidence in Jiu Qiansui. This time, he could also observe Jiu Qiansui when he was given half of his power to Lu Siguan.

Hearing the emperor's words, Jiu Qiansui hesitated for a moment and said, "Thank you for your compassion for the old slave and obey your order." He did not argue for himself at all, because he knew that the rebuttal at this time was of no use.

"Mr. Lu, you will work with Jiu Qiansui to manage the safety of the palace in the future. If there is any mistake, you will ask."

"Abide by the order, I will be sure to be unwilling to the decree." Lu Siguan also knew the implication of the emperor's actions this time. He had long wanted to take some power to protect the court, so that if there were any actions after nine thousand years, it would not be so easy.

"Okay, you all retreat and your birthday continues."

Liu Qingyan saw everything that had just happened in this hall. Only then did she realize that no minister in the court was willing to say the first half of the words for the Du family, even Lu Guozheng and Qin Muyu were taking advantage of the situation.

This is a bit different from what she thought in her mind. She originally thought that this time the Du family suffered a heavy blow, the Lu family and the Qin family would suffer, and she could also take the opportunity to think of ways to take revenge.

The emperor praised Du Luguozheng in the main hall. Many officials led by Lord Du were already standing behind Lu Guozheng.

All of this made her think that it was not a matter of success to seek justice for the Liu family. It was not as simple as she thought to send Qin Muyu to hell.

Liu Qingyan secretly glanced at Lu Siguan standing behind the emperor. He seemed not as powerful as the rumored at this time. There were still many things in the court that he could not control.

During the whole process, Liu Qingyan felt like she was dreaming. After Lu Siguan found out the matter, he breathed a little relieved.

Seeing Du Yuyan struggling painfully on the ground, Liu Qingyan felt much more relaxed when she had no sympathy for Tianya.

A little while ago, Du Yuyan brought the atmosphere of the birthday party in the hall to freezing point. Everyone stood in the hall with sad faces. Now everyone seemed to have forgotten that there was such a person, or that something had just happened.

Everyone immediately looked like before, and they were cheering and drinking, and everyone had a smile on their faces.

Next is the next round of programs that have been arranged long ago, this time it is a shadow play brought by the vassal kings.

The shadow puppet set up a platform in the hall and put on the curtain. Then he started performing.

When everyone was attracted by Sun Wukong in the shadow puppet, they suddenly shot an arrow from behind the curtain toward the emperor. Because they were blocked by curtains, the light in the hall was a little dim, and the ministers did not see the arrow that had already flown out.

The emperor was far away, so naturally he didn't see it. The rapid arrow passed through the hall, and as he seemed to be approaching the emperor.

At this time, Jiu Qiansui and Lu Siguan took action almost at the same time, using their internal strength and palms. The two of them forced the rapid arrow to stop and stand in front of the emperor, only about an inch away from the emperor's eyes.

Lu Siguan protected the emperor behind him, and then he flew to the center of the hall and killed all the shadow puppets in front of the hall with a few palms.

Hearing the sound of porcelain shattering in the hall, the guards rushed into the hall again with their swords.

Seeing the nine thousand-year-old generals killing, the ministers in the hall discovered something strange, so they fled one after another. Some people had no idea what happened. Seeing someone hiding behind the pillar, they ran behind the pillar.

This time, the emperor no longer dared to let the Empress Dowager stay in the hall, so he ordered Lu Siguan to take the Empress Dowager away.

Lu Siguan sent the empress dowager out according to Emperor Huang's request. Seeing that Liu Qingyan was not by the empress dowager's side, he took her out directly.

The hall is full of fish and dragons, and Lu Siguan is worried that Liu Qingyan is in danger.

Although Liu Qingyan was nervous, she knew that these things were not for her, so she was not too worried. She wanted to stay on the scene and see what was going on.

After killing the shadow puppet, the emperor ordered everyone in the hall not to leave and to thoroughly investigate the matter.

Jiu Qiansui was above this hall, and seemed not surprised at all by what was about to happen. He looked at the emperor and said, "The emperor and the prince will leave this place for the time being, and the old slave will definitely find out about this."

"It's okay, this place has been controlled by the Imperial Guard. Today I will find out the truth here, otherwise..." The emperor glanced at everyone in the hall and said sternly.

...

Du Yuyan was taken outside the palace gate and was beaten for fifty boards. She thought she would be beaten to death like this.
