The God of War is killing like crazy

Chapter 112 The legitimate daughter whose engagement was broken off 9

Here, Concubine Li also defended Sun Yuerong. All the evidence found by the Ministry of Internal Affairs pointed to Sun Yuerong. It was she who bribed the palace maid, gave the incense to the palace maid, and arranged all this.

Lipin put on the pitiful attitude that the emperor loved most on weekdays and defended herself, "Your Majesty, how could Rong'er harm herself? She is pure in character and would never do such a thing."

Lipin naturally knew what Sun Yuerong had done, but she found out a little late. Sun Yuerong told her the plan only after she had entered the palace today and arranged everything, and asked her to lead everyone over when the time came. Lipin felt sorry for her cousin who was suppressed by her vicious stepmother and had no good marriage, so she had to agree to help her. She didn't expect that when she led everyone to open the door, it was Sun Yuerong herself lying inside.

Seeing that the emperor refused to listen to her explanation and was about to leave in annoyance, Concubine Li planned to leave everything to the Internal Affairs Department to handle. After all, such a thing had happened and all the ministers at the banquet were waiting in the outer hall. The emperor only wanted the Internal Affairs Department to catch the real culprit as soon as possible to put an end to this shameful scandal.

But the matter has been traced back to Sun Yuerong. If the Ministry of Internal Affairs confirms the result, then she, who protected Sun Yuerong and helped her complete her plan, will become the target of the emperor's anger. Thinking of this, Lipin hurriedly stopped the emperor. She regretted very much in her heart that she should not have helped Sun Yuerong in the first place.

She winked at the maidservant who was serving her, and the maid immediately knelt down and said that she saw Sun Yuerong and Si Ying leaving the banquet together. The maid evaded the question and said that Sun Yuerong's clothes were wet by the wine, but Si Ying took the initiative to accompany her to change clothes.

In this way, all the blame was directed at Si Ying.

Si Ying and Tuan Tuan were watching the show on the side.

"Hey, sir, it's your turn to perform!" Tuantuan waved his wings excitedly, waiting to see the show.

Si Ying walked out slowly and said, "I did accompany Sun Yuerong to change clothes. At that time, the maid wanted to pour me some wine, but she suddenly slipped and spilled the wine on Sun Yuerong who was not far away. I felt a little sorry, so I kindly accompanied her to change clothes."

There were many people present at the time, and everyone saw this scene. The wine was clearly intended to be poured on Si Ying, but perhaps the palace maid was too stupid, and she lost her balance and poured the wine all over Sun Yuerong's body and face.

Many people came out to testify for Si Ying. Some even said that they saw Sun Yuerong secretly communicating with the maid, and then the maid ran towards Si Ying.

Seeing this, Lipin quickly questioned Siying, "Then why were there only four of them in the room later? What about you? Where were you at that time?"

Si Ying replied calmly, "After I sent Sun Yuerong to that room, she wanted to change her clothes. There were palace maids to help her, so I didn't need her, so I came back."

The scene was chaotic and no one noticed whether Si Ying was there, so no one dared to say that Si Ying was not there at the time.

Si Ying lowered her head again and wiped away her nonexistent tears, aggrieved, "I didn't expect something like this to happen. It's understandable that Concubine Li is so eager to protect her sister, but it's definitely not my fault. I don't know who is so vicious that Sister Rong has suffered so much."

It would have been better if Si Ying didn't say anything. Once she said it, everyone recalled the disgusting scene they saw in the room before, and they were about to vomit out the delicious food they had eaten at the banquet.

The emperor also looked unhappy. No matter how dissolute he was, he was not as happy as the four people in the room.

There was no direct evidence yet, so the emperor sat down again, waiting for the Ministry of Internal Affairs to return from their investigation outside the palace.

Soon the guards brought back a pharmacy owner and a medicine sales record book.

It was the first time that the shopkeeper saw the emperor. He was so frightened that his legs were shaking, and he soon confessed everything.

In order to make more money, the shopkeeper would also sell some incense for indoor pleasure, as well as special strong incense and powder used in brothels to discipline disobedient girls. The original owner was drugged in her previous life and it was actually bought from him by Wei Lanxue.

According to the shopkeeper's confession, it was Sun Yuerong who sent her maid to buy the special incense from him. He was also afraid that something might go wrong while selling this kind of medicine, so he recorded every transaction in the booklet.

The emperor opened the book and flipped through a few pages. He was instantly furious and even broke the teacup beside him because he saw a record of his concubines' families buying that kind of medicine, and there were more than one. Too much of that kind of medicine would naturally harm the body. No wonder his health has been getting worse recently. It was all because of those stupid women who used this medicine.

The emperor was really angry this time. He ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs to arrest Sun Yuerong for retrial in accordance with official law, and then left in anger.

This time, Lipin no longer dared to stop them, because she was among the people buying medicine.

The Queen stayed behind to take charge of the situation, comfort the ladies and girls, and sent people to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to find out that all this was done by Sun Yuerong, and told the ministers in the outer hall in front.

Finally, Si Ying and the other female relatives left the palace and went back with Lord Zhao who was waiting at the palace gate.

After returning to the Zhao Mansion, Lord Zhao specially dismissed the servants, comforted Si Ying, and then asked him in detail about what had happened. Lord Zhao had been in the officialdom for a long time and was very shrewd, so he naturally guessed the truth of the matter at once.

Sun Yuerong bought that kind of incense, bribed the palace maids to decorate the room, and then wanted to lure Si Ying over, and then arranged for her brother to go in. All of this was prepared for Si Ying today. But in the end, Si Ying left, but because she had smelled the special incense in the room for a long time, she ended up having an affair with her brother who she arranged.

What Lord Zhao was thinking of was also what many ministers realized instantly after returning home and listening to the descriptions of their female relatives. Sun Yuerong really deserved it.

At this time, at the Sun Mansion, Lord Sun also learned from Sun Yuxuan, who had recovered, that it was Sun Yuerong who arranged for him to go in and said that there was a beauty waiting for him inside. He was confused for a moment and was seduced by Sun Yuerong and made a big mistake.

Mr. Sun's ex-wife failed to give him a son. She died shortly after giving birth to Sun Yuerong. His later wife, Sun, gave birth to his precious son, Sun Yuxuan, whom he loved very much. Now that Sun Yuerong dared to plot against his only son, he no longer had to have any father-daughter feelings for her.

After all, protecting his son was the most important thing, so he quickly wrote a letter to the emperor, saying that all this was done by Sun Yuerong, and that she had deliberately harmed her own brother. He asked the emperor to severely punish this vicious and unfilial daughter, and that their Sun family would never object.

At this time, the Prince's Mansion, the Prince and the Princess also felt that Sun Yuerong wanted to harm Si Ying in order to marry her to their eldest son. However, she should never have included her own son Chu Zisu in the scheme. Their Prince's Mansion already had a bad reputation because of Wei Lanxue's incident, and now they have been hit by this incident again.

So the prince also wrote to the emperor, saying that Chu Zisu was also framed by Sun Yuerong and suffered such hardships, and asked His Majesty to execute the vicious Sun Yuerong.

Sun Yuerong learned from Concubine Li that the two families were going to join forces to have the emperor execute her. Naturally, she was unwilling to die obediently, so she looked at the palace maid who was imprisoned with her and came up with a plan.
