Chapter 717: One Witness After Another
"If that's the case, aren't you going to die?" Yan Lie asked.
The queen told the courtiers that when the time came, she would save the courtiers and their families, and it would only be Princess Qi who would die. So when the matter was revealed, when the emperor questioned the courtiers, the courtiers admitted that the matter was done by the courtiers and wanted to involve the princess of Qi. Yu Jiawen told everything about it.
"What do you say, Queen?" Yan Lie looked at Sheng Langyue and said.
Sheng Langyue sneered and said, "As far as the concubines know, Princess Qi went to see Yu Jiawen several times during this time, who knows what they said during that time?" ”
The implication of her words is that these are all discussed by Baoyun and Yu Jiawen early on.
Bao Yun didn't refute: "Also, this kind of statement can indeed be made up, but the evidence can't be made up, right?" ”
This was to remind Yu Jiawen, Yu Jiawen took out the incense from her sleeve and said: "This is the queen's mother to the courtiers, it is the incense, and the courtiers used this incense to stun the emperor and Princess Qi at that time." ”
Li Quan stepped forward and presented the incense to Yan Lie, Yan Lie took it in his hand and looked at it, put it under his nose and sniffed it gently, after thinking for a while, he frowned lightly and said, "The smell of this incense seems to be the same as the smell found in the Star Palace before." ”
Li Quan also took it and sniffed it, and said, "It seems to be the same kind indeed." ”
Yan Lie looked at Sheng Langyue again and asked, "Empress, what do you say about this?" ”
Sheng Langyue stopped sitting this time, walked to the center of the hall, stood in front of Yan Lie, and said, "Your Majesty, that incense is only available in Nanyue, how can there be a concubine?" ”
"Now I'm asking you, not you." Yan Lie looked down at her.
"But the concubine hasn't done it, how can I know where this incense came from, could it be that Yu Jiawen said that the concubine gave it to the concubine? Does the emperor not believe in his concubines like this? Sheng Langyue still asked rhetorically.
Yan Lie chuckled: "It's not that I don't believe you, if I want to believe you, you must at least have evidence that can prove your innocence." ”
"Since the emperor already believes that it was the concubine who did it, then treat the concubine's sin, the concubine has nothing to say." Sheng Langyue said dryly.
Yan Lie
lowered his head and smiled, thinking that Sheng Langyue had no other evidence, so he could only be such a scoundrel. Now Sheng Langyue has no evidence to prove his innocence, but Wei Rong and Baoyun have no evidence to convict Sheng Langyue.
Baoyun looked at Yu Jiawen and said, "Didn't my sister say that there is a grandmother who is teaching you how not to be angry when facing me?" What sister does this grandmother know with her surname? ”
"Yes, yes." Yu Jiawen nodded busily and said, "That grandmother's surname is He." ”
"Mama Ho." Bao Yun repeated and asked, "Then can you still recognize this grandmother now?" ”
"Absolutely."
"Then let Weiyang Palace ...... No, let the whole palace come to the grandmothers. Yan Lie said immediately. As long as you can find that grandma, then you can testify to Sheng Langyue.
At least it can prove that Sheng Langyue is really connected with Yu Jiawen.
"Father, we still have a witness." Wei Rong said at this time.
"Let the witness come in." Yan Lie immediately said.
Hearing Yan Lie's words, Sheng Langyue sneered in her heart, seeing Yan Lie's appearance like this, she couldn't wait to condemn her.
As soon as Yan Lie's words fell, the forbidden army walked in with Chao Lei. Seeing Chao Lei, Sheng Langyue's heart seemed to stop beating.
Chao Lei is different from others, he knows too much, if Chao Lei has really surrendered to Wei Rong and Yu Baoyun, it will be really bad.
She is not the only one who is worried, but also Sheng Qinghe and Sheng Langming, they are also Chao Lei. Chao Lei not only knew about Sheng Langyue, but also about the Sheng family and South Vietnam.
So what are Chao Lei going to say when he comes here? Talking about the Sheng family and South Vietnam? If so, how should they explain it?
Sheng Qinghe's head was a mess, he knew that he shouldn't panic at this time, and the more he panicked, the less helpful the situation would be.
They watched as Chao Lei came to the main hall and knelt down, waiting for Yan Lie's questioning.
"Who are you?" Yan Lie asked.
"The sinners are the chief of the guard next to the queen of Nanyue, Chao Lei."
Looking at Chao Lei's appearance, Sheng Langyue knew that the general trend had gone, as long as Chao Lei said those things, not only her, but the entire Sheng family would be ruined.
She really didn't know what method Wei Rong used to make Chao Lei speak.
Chao Lei was a trusted person by the Queen of Nanyue, and for the first time, she felt that Wei Rong was very scary. Is it anyone who will tell everything in Wei Rong's hands.
But seeing that there is no trace of Chao Lei's body being tortured, what did Wei Rong do to Chao Lei?
Sheng Langyue was still thinking about it, and Yan Lie's voice sounded in her ears: "What happened to the assassination that night?" ”
Chao Lei also didn't dare to raise his head like Yu Jiawen, lowered his head and said: "That's the queen of your country behind the instructions, our purpose is to hold the emperor hostage, and the criminals are also worried about what to do if they can't complete the task, but the queen mother said don't worry about this, she has her own way." ”
Yan Lie wanted to ask if there was anyone behind the scenes besides Sheng Langyue, but at this time Wei Rong asked: "The queen mother told me not to worry about her own way, do you know what the way is?" ”
Hearing Wei Rong ask this, Yan Lie frowned and looked at Wei Rong, who didn't seem to want him to ask Chao Lei other questions. But soon he figured it out, just this night to uproot the Sheng family is tantamount to a fantasy.
It was already beyond his expectation to be able to dispose of Sheng Langyue and Sheng Langming tonight, as for the Sheng family, he had to take his time.
"The sinners don't know that the queen didn't tell the sinners, but she took a piece of incense with the sinners. The incense is unique to South Vietnam, and it is very strong. Chao Lei replied.
"You are talking nonsense, you are slandering this palace, who instructed you to do this!" Sheng Langyue asked sharply.
Chao Lei didn't speak, he had already said what he should have said when he came here, and Wei Rong ordered him not to say more.
"Queen Mother, you said that he was slandering you, at least you have to show evidence. Now we have this piece of incense in our hands, as well as the confessions of the courtier's sister and Chao Lei, these are all matchable. Bao Yun said.
Sheng Langyue looked at Bao Yun coldly, "You are colluding, and if you collude to slander the palace, it is naturally not leaky." This Chao Lei is a person from South Vietnam, and you are the person who colluded with South Vietnam. ”
Bao Yun almost looked up to the sky and laughed, it seems that the Sheng family's problem of beating up and raking has not changed, it is obvious that the people of the Sheng family colluded with South Vietnam, and now it is said that she and Wei Rong colluded with South Vietnam.
