Hearing the threat in the Queen Mother's words, Ning Ru'an was immediately angry, she took a step forward slightly, and wanted to attack the Queen Mother, but she didn't want to be hurriedly stopped by Wen Shi on the side, and even shook her head at Ning Ru'an, signaling her not to open her mouth to look at Wen Cang.

I saw Wen Cang not far away staring at the Queen Mother silently, the Queen Mother who looked at her coldly trembled slightly, seeing that he was looking at him like this, the Queen Mother did not have the slightest intention of retreating, Wen Cang's heart was even colder, he knew that today in front of many ministers, if he did not agree to the Queen Mother, if he did not solve the matter, the Queen Mother would not be so calculated, which can be seen from the attitude of the Queen Mother when she just asked the Queen Mother to step back first and the Queen Mother refused to leave.

His heart was even colder, Wen Cang thought for a moment with a calm face, and then he asked the dark one who was not far away, "Dark one, how is Wen Xiao in the heavenly prison?" ”

was named by Wen Cang, and the dark one not far away hurriedly came over, and he said respectfully: "Back to the emperor, the environment in the prison is not good, Wen Xiao is not very good in the prison, and he was stung by the poisonous scorpion in the prison the night before, and the position of the injury is not good, it happens to be the throat, because he was found late by the officials, and when he went to the doctor to see it the next day, he had already spread the scorpion poison to his throat seriously, and he couldn't speak after being detoxified." ”

I didn't expect Wen Xiao to have this kind of encounter at all, even Wen Cang and Wen Shi were stunned and didn't come back to their senses for a long time.

The queen mother on the side heard about Wen Xiao's matter, and learned that Wen Xiao couldn't speak anymore, her eyes lit up immediately, and then she grabbed Wen Cang's arm and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, you see that Wen Xiao is already like this, he can't speak anymore, he can't do anything anymore when he loses his voice, a person who can't speak, he has nothing to threaten the emperor, the emperor, for the sake of the mourning family, just spare his life, the emperor ......"

Tightly grasped by the Queen Mother's arm, listening to the Queen Mother's words begging to let Wen Xiao go, Wen Cang suddenly became very bored, and quietly took away the hand that the Queen Mother was holding him, Wen Cang couldn't help but take a step back, and directly opened some distance from the Queen Mother, at this time he didn't want to see the Queen Mother at all.

And when she saw Wen Cang's approach, the Queen Mother immediately jumped in her heart, only feeling that Wen Cang was alienated from her and didn't want to let go of Wen Xiao, she immediately wanted to continue to move forward, but Wen Cang took another step back and avoided her.

Seeing that the Queen Mother didn't get the desired result and didn't give up, Wen Cang waved his hand at the Queen Mother, who still wanted to say something, and directly interrupted what the Queen Mother was about to say, and then he looked at Dark One and said coldly: "Dark One, go to the prison and bring Wen Xiao up." ”

Listening to Wen Cang's cold order, Dark One immediately responded, and then he hurriedly went to the prison to mention Wen Xiao.

There was silence in front of the main hall, Wen Cang's calm face was a little terrible, the ministers below did not dare to breathe, they were eager to send the queen mother back to the royal ancestral hall immediately, you said that the queen mother stayed in the royal ancestral hall so why did she want to come back, and as soon as she came back, the emperor was angry, and they were afraid of it, and the ministers below really complained about the death of the queen mother.

And listening to Wen Cang's somewhat compromised sending someone to call Wen Xiao, the Queen Mother finally breathed a sigh of relief, as long as Wen Cang could promise to spare Wen Xiao's life, even if she let Wen Cang alienate her and deny her, she would admit it, who made her promise to keep Xiao Xiao's life.

Just when everyone was embarrassed, Dark One came over with Wen Xiao.

Looking at Wen Xiao, whose hair was covered with dirt and his white clothes were also dirty and black, Wen Cang, Wen Shi and the others were all stunned, they didn't expect Wen Xiao to be so embarrassed.

Signaling the dark one on the side to tidy up Wen Xiao's image, the dark one who understood Wen Cang's meaning pulled and pulled around Wen Xiao, and immediately revealed Wen Xiao's lifeless face, which immediately shocked everyone.

At this time, Wen Xiao's whole person lost his original arrogant appearance, that embarrassed appearance, and his body still exuded a lifeless atmosphere, like a person who was about to die, as if even if he was left alone, he would not live for a few days, which suddenly made many people sympathetic, and also gave Wen Cang new ideas.

"Dark One, go find an imperial doctor." Wen Cang commanded in a cold voice.

As soon as he got the order, he immediately went to find the imperial doctor, and he was still looking for the most powerful imperial doctor in the palace, he knew what Wen Cang meant, and he wanted to verify the truth and falsehood of Wen Xiao's inability to speak.

Soon, Dark One came to the front of the main hall with the most powerful imperial doctor in the palace, and listened to Wen Cang's instructions, the imperial doctor immediately diagnosed Wen Xiao's pulse and looked at the situation, but as Dark One said, Wen Xiao's throat was poisoned too deeply, and the poison in his throat had been solved at this time, but he couldn't speak anymore, and he couldn't even make a cry of "ahhhhh

Seeing that the imperial doctor gave an accurate answer, the queen mother immediately felt that this was an opportunity, and without waiting for Wen Cang to speak, she hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, you see, even the most powerful imperial doctor in the palace said so, then Wen Xiao really can't talk anymore, then he will no longer be a threat to the emperor, just spare his life, the emperor, the mourning family will take him to the royal ancestral hall together, the mourning family will look at him, and will never let him mess up, when the mourning family dies, he will definitely take him with him, and he will never let him cause trouble for the emperor, the emperor ...... ”

Listening to the Queen Mother's pleading words, Wen Cang couldn't bear it anymore, he waved his hand fiercely, and then he ordered coldly: "Since the Queen Mother has asked for this, I will take it as a kindness today, and I will grant the Queen Mother's request and spare Wen Xiao's life, but Wen Xiao's crime is serious, the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime is unforgivable, and Wen Xiao is ordered to keep the lantern for the emperor in the royal ancestral hall until the end of his life." ”

Saying that, Wen Cang waved his hand again, and he said coldly: "The Queen Mother is old, you shouldn't be distracted by Wen Xiao's affairs, Dark Three, I order you to keep an eye on Wen Xiao with you, if he keeps the lantern in the royal ancestral hall, then everything will be fine, if he has any changes, I will give you the right to cut first and then play." ”

Dark Three, who was suddenly ordered by Wen Cang, suddenly appeared, and then he immediately responded.

Seeing that Wen Xiao was alive, the Queen Mother immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

And looking at the appearance of the Queen Mother, Wen Cang was really uncomfortable, he waved his hand, and said coldly: "The ceremony is over, it's all gone." ”

Before the words fell, Wen Cang took the lead in pacing.

Seeing Wen Cang leaving, the Queen Mother on the side thought for a moment, and then followed, when the Queen Mother arrived outside the imperial study, Wen Cang had already closed the door of the imperial study angrily.

The Queen Mother hurriedly asked the guards guarding outside the door to go in to report to Wencang, she had something to say to Wencang, but the guards who went in said that Wencang didn't want to see her.

The Queen Mother also knew that she had just chilled Wen Cang's heart for Wen Xiao's begging for her life, and it was normal for Wen Cang to refuse to see her at this time.

Sighing helplessly, the Queen Mother stood outside the imperial study and stopped for a quarter of an hour, and then she slowly spoke: "Your Majesty, the Mourning family knows that you don't want to see the Mourning family at this time, but the Mourning family has a word to say to you, you and Wen Shi grew up watching the Mourning family, what kind of effort the Mourning family has paid to the two of you, how to treat the two of you, presumably you two also know, today for Wen Xiao's life, the Mourning family is also very helpless, this is what your father asked the Mourning family to promise before he died, no matter which one you and Wen Xiao is, let the Mourning family do their best to save their lives, It's impossible to mourn the family. ”
