Chapter 216: Court of Appeal

  Chapter 216 Court of Appeal

   "Duke Yi?"

   A familiar voice came from beside him.

   Looking up, it was Yu Xuanji. She was sitting in Zhangtai Pavilion's carriage, and was raising the curtains to call him.

   "Why is Duke Yi here alone?"

  Qin Lang naturally had his entourage and guards with him when he went to the banquet, and he also had his own chariot and horses, but he was just led out by the side door by Xue Wanche, and now he is standing alone by the side of the road and sighing.

   "Why is the female recorder here?"

"Mr. Xue just said that the Eldest Princess suddenly felt unwell, so I apologized to the guests and ended the banquet early." Yu Xuanji looked at Qin Lang several times, and seemed to understand, "If Duke Yi doesn't dislike it, why don't you ride in the slave's carriage, I just happened to be going back to Pingkangfang, so I was on my way."

Qin Lang glanced at Yu Xuanji, saw that her eyes were full of shrewdness, and he didn't know where she was thinking of going, but looking around, he couldn't go around to the gate of Xue's house now, so he nodded his head. her carriage.

  Yu Xuanji's carriage is very beautifully decorated, although there are only two horse-drawn carriages, not the horse-drawn carriages of the prime ministers, but the decoration in the carriage is very delicate, and there is a scent inside.

   After looking carefully, I found that the inside has been modified. The cushions inside are soft, there are incense, there is a fire bucket for heating, and even tea and wine can be boiled. There are even simple bookshelves where you can put some books.

  Qin Lang leaned on the carriage, a little listless.

  Yu Xuanji ordered the driver to slow down, and then didn't bother him. He just turned on the incense burner, and then started to boil water on the charcoal stove in the car to make tea. His movements were gentle and meticulous, and he tried not to disturb Qin Lang.

  Qin Lang leaned there and thought wildly, but fell asleep halfway.

  Yu Xuanji looked at him closely, and secretly lamented Yuxiao's good life. She had the same identity, but now she has cultivated to perfection, but she still has to deal with those princes and nobles, and is still a prostitute.

  Qin Lang woke up and found that the carriage had already arrived at Pingkangfang.

   "Why didn't you wake me up?" He found the carriage stopped there.

   "Sanlang fell asleep just now, and I can't bear to disturb you."

   "Thank you, Miss, for your kindness."

Yu Xuanji looked at Qin Lang, and couldn't help reminding, "There are rumors that the Eldest Princess hates Concubine Xue, and has never let Concubine Xue get close to her after marriage, and some people say that the Eldest Princess can't forget Duke Yi. Although I don’t know how credible these rumors are, I still want to remind Lord Xia Yi that you and the eldest princess are playing with fire, and if the emperor knows about it, he will never tolerate it.”

"Sanlang's current status and status, what kind of woman do you want? Why bother to eat the grass that has been rejected? This grass is thorny. Saburo should not make an unforgivable big mistake because of his young impulsiveness. , Think about sister Yuxiao, if something happens to you, Saburo, I am afraid that sister Yuxiao will be confiscated into Yeting again as a slave, and her and your unborn child..."

  Qin Lang sighed.

   "You...you are very smart, but this matter is not what you think, I was fooled by others."

   "Overcast?"

"You may not believe it, but it's the truth." Qin Lang was full of grievances, but he knew that this kind of thing could not be told to a third person, so he could only sigh, "Thank you, Miss Yu, for sending me back, farewell! "

  Qin Lang got out of the carriage and walked towards the house.

  Yu Xuanji leaned against the carriage and looked at Qin Lang with a bleak background, even a little lonely, so he was crazy.

  Qin Lang returned home and took a cold shower, then slept for a day in a daze, but he caught a cold that night, and then even had a fever in the morning.

  Because of her growing belly, Yu Xiao had already slept in another room. Qin Lang slept alone at night. When Yu Xiao found out that he had a severe fever in the morning, she hurried to call the doctor to take a look.

  Diagnosis and treatment by the imperial physician requires bed rest, decoction and decoction.

  Qin Lang simply asked someone to give him a leave of absence memorial, and then recuperated at home.

   When Li Shimin heard that Qin Lang was ill, he sent an imperial doctor to treat him, and gave him ginseng and other medicines.

  Princess Danyang waited for Qin Lang's action in the mansion, but waited and waited and waited for Qin Lang to move, and sent someone to inquire, only to find out that Qin Lang was ill.

   One illness lasts for many days, and the door does not leave the second door.

   "This Qin Huailiang, do you think you can hide in this way? You can hide past the first day of junior high school and the fifteenth day of junior high school? Since you don't keep your word, don't blame me for being ruthless."

  Princess Danyang decided that Qin Lang was pretending to be sick, and became angry from embarrassment.

  She simply called her confidant servants and asked them to take the initiative to go to the market to spread rumors.

  The so-called rumors are the scandals between her and Qin Lang. Even what happened at the banquet that day was actively arranged by Danyang and then spread.

   This kind of gossip is what Chang'an people like to hear the most, not to mention that the eldest princess sent people to spread it on her own initiative, so overnight, the whole Chang'an city was talking about this scandalous news.

   Knowing that Danyang had spread the news, Xue Wanche got drunk and broke into the eldest princess' room to question her. As a result, the eldest princess scolded Xue Wanche for being a coward and incompetent.

   Xue Wanche was so angry that he wanted to get rid of Danyang through drunkenness, but Danyang scratched his face with blood stains. Finally, Danyang held a knife to his throat and forced Xue Wanche back.

   Xue Wanche was forced to leave the eldest princess's room, but when she left, she strangled to death one of her personal servants in front of the eldest princess.

  The relationship between the two has dropped to a freezing point.

   Xue Wanche, whose face was covered with bloodstained nails, was unable to see anyone, so he also asked for sick leave.

  But Danyang didn't give up. She took the initiative to report to the emperor, saying that Xue Wanche had killed her two maidservants and would kill her.

   This matter is not simple.

   Li Shimin was furious after receiving the memorial, and immediately summoned Xue Wanche into the palace.

"What do you want to do?"

   Li Shimin asked Xue Wanche when he saw him.

   As a result, Xue Wanche raised his head, allowing the emperor to see his ugly face.

"Your Majesty, I am very grateful to Your Majesty for bestowing upon the Eldest Princess, but it has been several months since Princess Shang got married, but the Eldest Princess has never looked at me in the eye, and she has not even consummated her marriage with Zeng until now, and she has never even had a meal with her. But, let alone sharing the same bed..."

  As soon as these words came out, Li Shimin was also stunned, but looking at Xue Wanche's face when he was arrested, Li Shimin estimated that the truth might be similar.

   "Aiqing, the way of husband and wife is harmony."

"Your Majesty, do you know how the people in Chang'an City are talking about your minister? They say you are a ten thousand-year-old tortoise, and a thousand-year-old green bastard! You have humiliated the eight generations of my Xue family's ancestors and humiliated the generations of ancestors!" As he said that, the dignified Iron-Blooded Warrior couldn't help crying bitterly in the hall.

  Li Shimin frowned, "I will let Qin Lang track down who is making these rumors, it will be serious!"

Xue Wanche couldn't hear Qin Lang's name now, and finally couldn't help being angry, "Your Majesty, do you know why the people in Chang'an scolded the minister like that? Because that is the truth, and the person who made the minister humiliated like this is Qin Lang! "

   "Qin Lang? When I first granted the marriage, I did not tell you about Qin Lang's refusal of Danyang's marriage, but this matter has already passed, so why are you still involved?"

"Your Majesty, I have never been entangled in the past. What I am talking about is the present. A few days ago, Your Majesty appointed the vassal General Zuowei. I was grateful and happy, so I held a banquet in the mansion and invited relatives and friends to celebrate. , also to show His Majesty's gratitude, when Japan didn't want to invite Qin Lang, but the Eldest Princess insisted on adding Qin Lang's name, I did not think much, so I invited, but...but they... ···”

"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes and heard it with my own ears that day, I wouldn't have believed it. They are so deceitful, and they humiliated me like this in my mansion when I entertained a house full of guests, but I still I have to protect the reputation of the eldest princess and the reputation of your majesty’s son-in-law, and I had to stand guard for them outside the door..."

  The more he talked, the sadder Xue Wanche became.

   "I have no other request now, I just ask Your Majesty to be merciful and allow me to reconcile with the princess."

  The more Li Shimin listened, the more angry he became, his face turned purple with anger.

   "What you said is true?"

   "I dare to swear by the souls of the ancestors of the Xue family, by the soul of my father's underground death, that everything I say is true, and if I dare to say half a lie, I, Xue Wanche, will die a terrible death without a whole body!"

   Li Shimin staggered a few steps and almost fell.

  The whole person can't win without panting.

Senseless.

  If a person dares to swear such a poisonous oath, there is nothing to doubt.

   "I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it!"

   Li Shimin was out of breath.

   "Your Majesty, the minister's fortune is poor, and there is no blessing to honor the eldest princess. I also ask your majesty to dissolve the marriage between the minister and Danyang."

   "You go back to recuperate first, and I will give you an account of this matter." Li Shimin said fiercely.

  After Xue Wanche left, Li Shimin angrily kicked the case over.

  When the servants in the palace saw the emperor kicking over the jade case again, they didn't dare to make a sound. Every time the emperor was angry, he would kick the imperial case. Once he kicked the imperial case, he would be extremely angry.

It is said that when the Duke of Qi is furious, he always smashes a piece of paper into pieces with one palm. If Cheng Yaojin is furious, he will pick up the Xuanhua ax to split the wood. If Yu Chigong is furious, he likes to run naked on horseback. ······

   "I'm going to chop that bastard!"

   "Bring my sword, I'm going to chop that little **** myself!"

  The young **** in the hall asked the emperor who he wanted to kill anxiously, and the emperor replied Qin Lang.

   "Is it Duke Yi?"

   "It's that beast!"

  The young **** in the palace panicked, and hurriedly responded to the emperor, while sending someone to move Empress Changsun.

  When Empress Changsun arrived, Li Shimin had already raised his great sword and stepped on Sha Zilu, and wanted to personally kill Qin Lang, a shameless beast.

   "Your Majesty, let's calm down the anger first, and let's talk about it after clarifying the matter." Empress Changsun grabbed the emperor's horse's head.

   "What else is unclear? Xue Wanche has sworn on the dead soul of the Xue family's ancestors!"

   "How can Your Majesty only listen to one side of the story? The concubine thought it would be better to summon Danyang and Qin Lang to confront him face to face!"

   "Don't think things are ugly enough? Do you want to make it known to the world?"

   "But is your majesty going to accept this matter just by listening to one side's remarks?" Empress Changsun continued to persuade.

   Li Shimin couldn't listen to it angrily, and still wanted to kill the beast himself.

  The queen suddenly ouched and sat on the ground.

  Li Shimin hurriedly asked, "Guanyin servant girl, what's wrong with you?"

   "The concubine's stomach hurts like a twist!"

   "Imperial doctor, hurry up and tell the imperial doctor!" Li Shimin jumped off his horse and hurriedly picked up his eldest grandson.
