Chapter 1174

In the end, he couldn't stand the Queen Mother's threats and his sister's crying and panic, and he did something wrong in a daze.

He was so scared! When Shi Anxia pointed out that Princess Yunlan had poisoned him in Chaoyang Palace that day, he had a premonition that something bad was going to happen.

Sure enough, everything is under the control of my father.

Princess Yunlan also struggled to speak, "Father, I am also a victim. The Queen Mother... She threatened my brother and mother's lives, and I had no choice but to obey. I... had no choice..."

The Queen Mother looked at Emperor Mingde and sneered, "Emperor, do you want to know why I forced Xiao Yong and Yun Lan to poison you?"

After these words were spoken, the empress dowager was branded as someone who plotted to murder the emperor, and her path was doomed.

How could Emperor Mingde not know that this old man was trying to disregard his dignity as an emperor?

How could Shi Anxia let this dog queen mother tarnish the dignity of Emperor Mingde? He stepped forward in time and said, "There is irrefutable evidence that the queen mother poisoned me. I beg you to kill me!"

The voices of “seconding the motion” came one after another.

Emperor Mingde then spoke slowly amidst the voices of "seconding the motion", and every word was filled with the majesty of an emperor that could not be challenged. "All those involved, no matter how close they are, will be severely punished. The Queen Mother sold out her country for glory, and I gave her poisoned wine as a demonstration of the law of the country; her followers and minions must also be investigated one by one, and no leniency will be shown. I know that this matter involves many people, but the great cause of the country cannot be disturbed by personal feelings. From now on, the Ministry of Justice, the Dali Temple, and the Censorate will jointly try the case, and the Dongyu Guard and the Imperial Guard will fully cooperate. We must ensure that it is fair and strict, and give an explanation to the world."

"Your Majesty is wise!" Zhao Liren was the first to shout.

All the ministers said in unison, "Your Majesty is wise!"

The Empress Dowager knew that her time was up and that she could not escape death, so her mood miraculously calmed down and it seemed that the pain in her legs had gone away.

After all, the Queen Mother, who was always plotting and scheming, wanted to muddy the waters before her death.

The mottled sunlight illuminated the Empress Dowager's aged face.

Each of her words was clear, as if she wanted to pour out a lifetime of wisdom and calculations in this final moment.

"The emperor is wise! Since that's the case, I will give you a gift. You must be careful of Princess Haiyan's consort. He is not a simple man! He is the late emperor's posthumous son and your brother. He is so capable, are you afraid? Can you keep your throne secure?"

These words made the entire hall seem to shake.

The Empress Dowager Jiqing had an imperceptible smile on her lips. She was never inferior to anyone in disturbing people's hearts. "Back then, my distant cousin Jiang Meilian was favored by the late emperor when she entered the palace to accompany me. They fell in love and got pregnant. But the late emperor passed away before he could confer the title on my cousin. I had no choice but to place my cousin away, and she gave birth to a son. This son is my husband, Cen Yuan."

Wu Xianwen, the envoy of Liang State: “???”

Then where is my Emperor Heng?

Wang Yi, the envoy of Liang State: "!!!"

The country curses you, give me back Emperor Heng!

Northern Wing officials: "!!!"

Although, it must be admitted that the royal bloodline is indeed strong. No wonder they stir up the storm whenever they take action!

Shi Anxia and Cen Yuan: "......"

This old lunatic is trying to sow discord among people again!

"If the emperor doesn't believe me, there are several maids who delivered the baby and are still alive. If you check, you will know if I am lying or not."

The Queen Mother was still mad, her eyes were full of calculations about human nature, "I asked a sorcerer to calculate, Shi Anxia has the fate of a Phoenix girl. That's why I wanted her to marry the Prince of Jin. Who knew that this girl married Cen Yuan... Hehehe... Emperor Mingde, guess whether you can keep your throne?"
