The scheming empress starts by conquering men

Chapter 296: Court Turbulence 8

Shaodian Sishui suppressed the smile in his heart and a look of surprise flashed across his face.

She knew Shaodian Haolan would do something stupid, but she didn't stop him, and let him snatch it away at will.

After snatching the letter, Shaodian Haolan didn't even look at it. A look of joy appeared on his face. He tore the letter into pieces and threw it at Shaodian Sishui's face.

"Sixth sister, please stop accusing me of these fabricated things. When did I ever say these things? And when did I ever write you a letter? Without any evidence, it's just a false accusation."

Emperor Feng: “…”

San Gong: "..."

Jiu Qing: "..."

PhD:"……"

No one expected that the Second Princess could actually do this. She would tear up the evidence in public.

A smile appeared on Master Shi's face. He was worthy of being the Second Prince. He actually dared to tear up the evidence in public. The Sixth Princess probably didn't expect that the Second Prince could have such despicable means.

Now that the evidence is gone, no one would believe that what she said was true even if she, the Sixth Princess, told the truth.

Shaoding Chun'e widened her eyes: "... Can it be like this?" I have learned something new.

Shaodian Sheyu; "...Second sister is so shameless!"

Shaodian Ziqing; "Second sister blatantly tore up the evidence, how despicable."

Shaodian Sishui had a faint smile on his face and took out another letter.

"Second sister, why don't you take a look? The one you just tore up is not the original. This is the one you wrote yourself..."

Before he could finish his words, Shaodian Haolan made another move, snatched the letter quickly and accurately, and tore it up again.

Shaodian Sishui said calmly, took out a stack from her sleeve and handed it to Shaodian Haolan.

"Second sister, there's more, do you want to tear it up?"

Shaodian Haolan gnashed his teeth: "..."

"Pfft! Hahahaha..."

Shaodian Sheyu couldn't help laughing out loud, and he laughed so hard that he fell over.

Even Shaodian Ziqing almost couldn't help it and tried to raise the corners of his mouth.

Shaoding Chun'e shook her head and looked at Shaoding Haolan sinisterly, "Idiot."

All the civil and military officials in the court, including those belonging to Shaodian Haolan's faction, were watching closely, and at this moment they wished they could find a way to get in.

On the other hand, the people from Shaodian Sishui faction looked solemn.

Chi Feiyan bowed to Emperor Feng.

"The Second Princess's actions are enough to prove that she knew everything that the Song family did. Here is the evidence. Your Majesty, please make the decision and demote the Second Prince to a commoner and put him in prison as a warning to others."

"enough!"

Emperor Feng had a gloomy expression on his face. He looked around and his sight finally fell on Shaodian Sishui.

It turned out that her backup plan was actually the Song family's conspiracy to rebel. She knew everything, but she had been enduring it until now. People really underestimated her.

"The matter of Zhong Wuyan and Song Huitian plotting rebellion is of great importance and concerns the fate of the country. They must come to the capital together and be interrogated by the Imperial Guard, Imperial Household Officials, and the Imperial Court Officials before a decision can be made."

Emperor Feng did not even look at the evidence on Shaodian Sishui's side and directly issued the imperial decree. Needless to say, his bias was obvious to all the civil and military officials in the court.

In addition to the simple-minded but strong-limbed Taiwei Sheng Xuan, and the Fourth Princess Shaodian Sheyu who was not noticed, there is also an extremely jealous Shaodian Haolan.

In Shaodian Haolan's opinion, the empress dowager believed Shaodian Sishui's words and planned to target the Song family.

Otherwise, she would never let Song Huitian come to Bian Jing. She knew that Song Huitian had been secretly sent back to Dari City by the Mother Emperor, and she thought the matter had come to an end. She never expected things to turn out like this.

Damn Shaodian Sishui!

Thinking of her cousin Song Huitian, Shaoding Haolan's face flashed with reluctance. In order to preserve the Song family, she had to give up Song Huitian.

Shaodian Sishui raised the corner of his mouth and glanced at Emperor Feng with a twinkle in his eyes.

What an old fox. She thinks Song Huitian is dead, so she said that.

Well, then she would wait.

However, when she looked at Shaodian Haolan's calculating and gloomy expression, she had to be on guard against her doing something shady.

Thinking of this, Shaodian Sishui was the first to bow and shout, "Mother Emperor is wise and wise."

The other court officials saw that the matter had come to this point and no matter what the outcome would be, they could no longer stand up for their master and could only bow in obeisance.

"Your Majesty is holy."

Emperor Feng wanted to leave the court, but Shaodian Sishui said, "Mother Queen, I have something else to report."

It's endless!

Emperor Feng glared at Shaodian Sishui. "What's the matter?"

Shaodian Sishui bowed and said, "Reporting to the Mother Queen, Grand Tutor Shi and Lord Kuang falsely accused me of using assassins to impersonate the emperor to assassinate my sister. If the reason is not explained, there may be a rift between me and my sister. I hope the Mother Queen will allow me to call witnesses to prove my innocence."

Her words made the corners of the mouths of the courtiers on Shaodian Haolan's side twitch slightly, and they looked at her with hatred in their eyes.

You still have the nerve to say that you have a grudge against me? Ha, that's hilarious.

You're so angry that you want to never have anything to do with each other again, yet you're still shamelessly saying that there might be a rift?

The old matter was brought up again, and Emperor Feng looked at Shaodian Sishui with an angry expression, and his eyes fell on Master Shi and Kuang Ziyu.

If these two people cannot be kept, Hao Lan will be punished and slandered because of this. She only hopes that these two people can be smarter and stop everything for Hao Lan. Afterwards, she will find a way to spare the lives of their people.

It's worth their loyalty.

Ugh!

Emperor Feng sighed secretly and held his forehead with a tired look on his face.

"In that case, call the witnesses."

"Heir's testimony~~"

The chief eunuch sang loudly.

The voices from outside spread one after another, and soon, led by the guards, Lao Sui Niang, her daughter-in-law, and her youngest son appeared in the hall.

All the court officials looked at the three people in unison, gazing at them with disdainful eyes.

They were just passers-by and had never seen such a scene of early morning court. They were so frightened that their legs and feet went limp.

But when she thought of the Sixth Prince's advance instructions, Old Sui Niang gritted her teeth and walked to the front and kowtowed to Emperor Feng.

"I, the lowly Sui, kowtow to the emperor. Long live the emperor."

As she kowtowed, her husband also knelt down despite his big belly.

Shaodian Sishui said, "Mother Empress, Old Sui Niang's daughter is eight months pregnant and will soon give birth. She is in a lot of discomfort. Why don't you exempt her from the kneeling ceremony?"

Emperor Feng waved his hand with a hint of impatience. "Well, no need to kneel."

Han Jin, Ruizi's husband, bowed very tenderly.

"I, your humble servant, thank you for your grace, Your Majesty."

The children around them were as fearless as newborn calves and didn’t know what fear was, but they also knelt down and kowtowed.

Emperor Feng gave the chief eunuch a look, and the chief eunuch took the order and spoke.

"Who is kneeling?"

Lao Sui Niang kowtowed again, with a mist in her eyes.

"Your Majesty, please make the decision! I am Sui, and I have two daughters. The one next to you is my husband, Han Jin. I am from Bian Jing, and my home is in Shuixiang, south of the city."

"Last night, the Sixth Princess distributed free food. I went with my daughter Ruizi to collect the food, but was stopped by the Second Princess. The Second Princess's personal maid chopped off my daughter's arm without giving me any explanation."

"Ruizi was in imminent danger. It was the Sixth Princess who used all her strength to save my daughter's life. I am grateful to her."

"but!"

Old Sui Niang burst into tears and raised her head to point at Shao Dian Hao Lan on the left.

"In order to label my daughter an assassin, the Second Princess sneaked into my house under the cover of night and tried to kill my entire family!"
