Chapter 288 The Daughter of the Sinful Minister36

Xining curled his lips: "I will return the deed of selling myself to her, and there will be no problem in getting rid of the slave status. Can I think that the master can use my maid to buy an extra Jinyiwei to marry? Then why doesn't Xiaohong get married?"

Xu Mian took a bite of the bun and said leisurely: "Xiaohong, I want to leave it to Zhang Zhong. Xiaohong's martial arts skills are beyond the reach of ordinary people."

As long as he doesn't become Xu Mian's side chamber, anything is fine. Xining immediately said: "It all depends on your arrangements."

Xu Mian nodded and continued eating. After finishing one piece, he asked for another.

Xining recalled, why did the two of them talk like an old couple?

After eating, Xiaohong took tea to rinse her mouth, served two cups of tea, placed it on the low table and left.

While drinking tea, Xining used a fan to fan Xu Mian who was leaning against him from time to time. With confusion: "Why do you want to marry me, sir? In terms of family background, I am not very good. As long as you are willing, wouldn't it be better to marry a county or princess?"

Xu Mian closed his eyes and said lightly: "I like you to eat with me."

I like to eat with her, so I married her. Is it that simple?

Xining raised his eyebrows. Anyway, it was the body master who would accompany Xu Mian from now on. As long as the body master did not die, that would be fine.

"Tuk-tuk-tuk" there was a knock on the door. Qianhu's voice came from outside the door: "Master Xu, the emperor wants you to cooperate with Miss Gu to enter the palace to meet the saint."

Uh...

There was nothing to dress up, so she changed into the same clothes as when she came in. Xiaohong helped comb her hair and hurriedly helped her get into the carriage.

Xu Mianze and Qianhu were riding nearby. Xu Mian looked at Qianhu: "Why did the emperor order you to call me?"

Qianhu responded: "When Beizhi went to court, the emperor left Beizhi behind and asked Beizhi to come back and notify. Not only Beizhi is going, but the prince is also going. The prince should come out of the clan mansion at this time."

Xu Mian nodded and continued moving forward.

When they arrived at the palace, Xining followed Xu Mian and Qianhu. The sun was already high, making people feel dizzy. Along the way, there were many palace people who sprinkled water on the ground to lower the temperature.

In the past, if an official woman entered the palace for the first time, the palace would send out a nun to teach her the rules, but this time, without knowing what was going on, she was called in directly.

Outside the Wuying Hall, a woman in her thirties or forties was kneeling, wearing imperial concubine's palace attire. Kneeling under the bright sun, I was already sweating profusely, and I was feeling miserable. I might faint at any time.

This should be the prince's mother. Xining just looked at it and remained silent.

After the announcement, the three people walked into the hall.

At this time, there were other people in the hall. A twenty-year-old man with a strong and frail appearance was kneeling on the ground. There were memorials scattered around him, as well as an inkstone broken in half. On the man's forehead, the ink from the inkstone was mixed with blood, and his face was extremely pale.

If the guess is correct, this person should be the prince. And sitting behind the desk in front, the man in his forties, with a long beard and wearing a bright yellow dragon robe is the emperor.

The emperor was so angry that he even threw away the inkstone. You must know that the prince is the future emperor. If he throws the inkstone, he is not afraid that the ink will stain the wound and leave a black stain in the future.

After Xu Mian entered, he only glanced at the unfortunate prince next to him, then he knelt down carefully and respectfully and saluted first.

Fortunately, I still knew the rules in the palace before. Even in different dynasties, or even in different planes, all the rules are actually the same.

Xining knelt down along with Xu Mian and Qianhu in front. After kowtowing and saluting, he knelt there with his head lowered. "Father, I have been wronged. Please believe me." The prince knelt there and cried: "I have a crown prince, two concubines, and four children. No matter how cowardly I am, I don’t dare to look at my father’s woman, please be careful!”

Didn’t you find out clearly? Otherwise, why was Xu Mian outside, interrogating Zhao Meiren for three days without sleep. Xining was confused.

The emperor's majestic voice came, with a hint of shame and annoyance at this time: "Mr. Zhao has confessed that she had an affair with you before entering the palace. After that, she was selected to enter the palace. She still has feelings for you, so she holds a grudge. Therefore, she set up a trap A trap, let me bump into the "private meeting" between you two. Tell me the truth, how did you meet Zhao Meiren?"

The prince was stunned: "My son has never met Zhao Meiren, how come he has an affair with her?"

"You're still lying!" The emperor grabbed another stack of memorials and threw them at the kneeling prince. All of a sudden, memorials were flying all over the sky, and many of them landed on the prince.

As long as you don't throw the inkstone, no matter how many memorials there are, it won't kill anyone. Anyway, this is a place dedicated to reviewing memorials, and there are plenty of them!

"Father, have mercy on me, father, have mercy on me!" The prince was so frightened that he kept kowtowing.

The emperor was so angry that his chest felt tight, his head was confused, and he was gasping for air.

The eunuch in charge next to him hurried up and handed the tea: "Your Majesty, take a sip of tea and don't get so angry."

The emperor picked up the tea and took a sip, but he choked and his teeth were blocked even as he drank the water. Looking at the frightened and tearful prince kneeling below, he felt uncomfortable and raised the teacup in anger.

"Your Majesty, no, the prince has already failed." The eunuch in charge quickly stopped him.

The emperor's eyes widened: "Get out!" The eunuch in charge was frightened and backed away.

The emperor took the teacup and threw it hard into the open space in front of the prince.

The fine official kiln celadon bowl and tea cup were smashed to pieces.

Still angry, he took another stack of memorials and threw them down. Now, almost all the memorials on the table were thrown away. Then he gasped for air: "Xu Mian, tell me!"

Xu Mian knelt there with his head slightly lowered. Extraordinary calmness: "According to the investigation, Zhao Meiren did meet the prince in the Zhao Mansion when she was fifteen years old. The prince accidentally met Zhao Meiren, and was bumped into by Zhao Meiren's father, Mr. Zhao, the Minister of Punishment. Mr. Zhao On the grounds that Zhao Meiren has a good reputation, I want the prince to accept Zhao Meiren as his concubine..."

The prince immediately shouted in panic: "Father, it happened several years ago. They framed my son at that time!"

If there is a private meeting, for the sake of the reputation of the unmarried lady, the man will indeed be allowed to marry the woman.

"Pa~" The emperor slapped his hand heavily on the table and shouted: "Just listen quietly and I will explain to you after listening. If you make any noise again, shut your mouth!"

Xu Mian continued to talk unhurriedly, without being affected by what he had just said: "The prince refused. At that time, he said yes, and insisted that he accept Zhao Meiren, so he went to the emperor to make a difference. Mr. Zhao couldn't see it, and he stopped all activities. Half a year later, Zhao Meiren was selected into the palace as a beautiful lady. Therefore, the prince did not have any affair with Zhao Meiren, but it was caused by Master Zhao who wanted to get rich and honor the prince. ! ”

The prince turned his head and glanced at Xu Mian gratefully.

The emperor's expression became much better: "Then why did Zhao Meiren frame the prince?" He tapped his fingers on the table, where the confession was signed and stamped by Zhao Meiren.

Xu Mian responded: "That's because of the Queen!"
