Marrying a village tyrant husband with space, being spoiled by the in-laws
Chapter 385 The Princess’s Mansion
The night pearl hit Tao Tian's head, then fell to the ground, and broke into pieces with a snap.
The real night-shining pearl is as hard as a rock and will not break no matter how hard you drop it. This one that has been broken into pieces is obviously a fake.
The person kneeling on the ground was stunned!
What's happening here? !
He is also a little confused!
How could the Night Pearl be fake? How is that possible!
After he found it, he looked at it himself at night and found that it indeed glowed and could light up the entire room.
This, this, how could this be fake?!
In panic, he thought about the theft and recovery of the Night Pearl in Xuanzhou City. Something must have happened in between, but how could the emperor know? !
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I don't know why this Night Pearl is fake. This is a tribute from the Black Chicken Country. I am innocent!"
At this time, you can only refuse to admit it, maybe there is still a glimmer of hope.
"Oh, so, after this Night Pearl was sent here by the envoy of the Black Chicken Country, it has been in the box and has never been touched?"
"Your Majesty, after all these tributes were delivered, I, the envoys from the Black Chicken Kingdom, and the officials in charge of inspection all checked them together and then sealed them again. No one has opened them in the meantime. Please check clearly, Your Majesty."
Tao Tian knew that he could not admit this matter. If he admitted it, everything would be over.
Xiao Hongkang sneered and looked at the person on the ground. He was really stubborn and would not cry until he saw the coffin. He would not turn back until he hit the wall.
He took a deep breath, took a small wooden box from the table and handed it to Gao Zhong.
"Take this down and show Tao Tian what this is."
Gao Zhong opened the box, walked over and placed it in front of Tao Tian.
A night-shining pearl exactly the same as the one just now appeared before his eyes.
Needless to say, this one is real, but how did the night pearl end up in the hands of the emperor?
Tao Tian's legs were shaking even more violently.
"I bought this night-shining pearl from two men, and both of them are from Xuanzhou City. What a coincidence. Sir Tao, do you have any excuse for this?"
Tao Tian knew that the truth was about to be exposed, but he still held on to a glimmer of hope.
"I am guilty and I deserve death! Your Majesty, please punish me severely. It was my fault for not disciplining the officials, which led to the officials stealing the tribute and selling it. I am willing to accept the punishment."
Xiao Hongkang was so angry that he almost laughed. At this time, he was still thinking of finding someone to take the blame for him.
He picked up the inkstone on the table and smashed it hard again.
"Tao Tian, you really won't cry until you see the coffin. I bought the night-shining pearl from the two young masters of Fengguan in the south of Xuanzhou City."
"As for the whole story, why not summon them both to come and tell you everything in detail? I want to see if you have any excuses."
Soon, Mr. Green Tea and Mr. Huangshan were brought in. They were wearing hoods when they came in. They were not taken off until they reached the door.
Looking at the majestic building in front of you, you know that this is definitely not an ordinary place.
When he was brought in, he saw a man in a dragon robe sitting at the top, and the local emperor of Xuanzhou City, General Ping'an Tao Tian, was kneeling below.
The two were so frightened at this moment that they just fell to their knees on the ground, completely forgetting what to say.
Although the two knew at the beginning that they had to stay and testify to identify General Ping'an, they did not expect to do it in front of the emperor.
The two of them only saw the yellow dragon robe, so they lowered their heads and never dared to look up to see what the emperor looked like.
If they were bolder and looked more carefully, they would definitely find that they had seen this emperor yesterday.
"I pay my respects to His Majesty."
"I pay my respects to His Majesty."
The two men knelt on the ground, their legs shaking like sieves.
"Tell General Ping'an how you two got into General Ping'an's mansion, how you stole the night-shining pearl, and how you faked it and exchanged the fake for the real one. Let him die knowingly."
Naturally, the two of them did not dare to hide anything at this moment, and told the whole matter clearly, no matter how big or small, about the eldest daughter of General Ping'an's mansion summoned male prostitutes every day and enjoyed herself with tribute.
The more they talked, the paler Tao Tian's face became.
"Tao Tian, what else do you have to say?!"
Xiao Hongkang asked coldly.
"I beg your Majesty to forgive me. I know my crime!"
He knew that it was useless to say anything at this moment. The emperor must have sent people to Xuanzhou City to collect evidence by keeping these two witnesses. The more he said at this moment, the more mistakes he would make.
"For all the things you have done, it is not too much to execute your entire clan. You still want me to forgive you? Dream on! Someone, take Tao Tian to the prison and wait for your punishment."
He was dragged out by the Imperial Guards like a dead dog. He didn't expect that this trip to Beijing would be a journey of no return.
God wants to kill him!
The emperor suddenly returned to the palace and dealt with the queen's family with thundering means. Today, he also sentenced General Ping'an. His swift and decisive actions made all the officials in the capital feel insecure.
Who knows if I will be the next unlucky one?
After all, no one who can serve as an official in the capital is clean. If we really investigate them in detail, each of them is worthy of being sentenced and exiled.
Yu Suihuan's princess mansion has also been decided. It is the former Prince Gong's Mansion, which is currently under renovation.
This Prince Gong was the most favored son of Emperor Taizu. His mansion was twice as big as that of an ordinary prince. It consumed countless rare treasures and was built by skilled craftsmen, making it as luxurious as a fairy palace.
The emperor bestowed this mansion on the eldest princess, which shows how important the eldest princess is in the emperor's heart. She is even more favored than these princes.
During the period of renovating the Princess's Mansion, Yu Suihuan and Li Chengjin naturally lived in Mingzhu Palace.
The Mingzhu Palace was extremely luxurious. As early as a year ago, Xiao Hongkang had sent people to renovate it meticulously, just to make sure his daughter would live comfortably when she returned. Every detail was taken into consideration.
The two of them had been working hard for so many days, so they naturally slept very comfortably in this luxurious big bed last night.
It was already noon in the morning, and no one dared to wake the princess and her husband.
It was not until the Empress Dowager Dong sent someone to invite the eldest princess and her husband to come in for a talk that the palace maid Bai Lu dared to go forward and knock on the door.
"Your Highness, the Queen Mother has summoned you. I want you to come in and help you wash up."
Yu Suihuan heard someone talking in a daze, lifted his arms from the man's abdominal muscles, and then slowly sat up.
"Come in, which Queen Mother invites you?"
Bai Lu pushed the door open carefully, walked in with her head lowered, and stopped outside the gauze curtain.
"To answer the princess, it's the Empress Dowager of the Eastern Palace."
Hearing this, Yu Suihuan breathed a sigh of relief. Although the Empress Dowager Cixi was her biological grandmother, she did not like her very much.
On the contrary, she felt that the Empress Dowager Dong, her biological grandmother, was quite to her liking.
The two of them got up, washed and dressed, and went to Shou'an Palace with the nanny who came to deliver the message.
