Reborn to raise a baby, Princess Heng has become stronger
Chapter 297: Beheading King Heng
"What did you say!"
Lu Chenxiao's face was filled with a storm.
He didn't think Shang'er would have any feelings for Qin Yimo, but he was worried that Lu Yuanjing and his mother would resort to shady tactics to harm Shang'er's reputation.
"My mother has ordered that Princess Heng has no respect for her elders and must be confined to the enclosure for three days. Qin Yimo has been ordered to guard her."
"In the dead of night, a man and a woman alone, a fire burning, tsk tsk tsk tsk ..."
Before he finished speaking, a gust of wind passed by, and two blood marks appeared on Lu Yuanjing's face.
But he was not afraid at all, instead he shouted excitedly, "Meng Yunshang doesn't love you at all. If you hadn't forced her to marry him five years ago, she wouldn't have married you at all."
"Now that she has a chance to get rid of you, she must be eager to get involved with Qin Yimo."
"When I ascend the throne, I will grant them marriage and let Meng Yunshang marry Qin Yimo as a concubine. Concubines granted by the royal family cannot be divorced or abandoned, and they must be entangled together for the rest of their lives."
"When the time comes, your son will have to call Qin Yimo his father, and the woman you hold dear will be under Qin Yimo's care..."
Lu Chenxiao couldn't hold back the anger in his heart after all!
A big hand grabbed Lu Yuanjing's neck, and Lu Yuanjing, who was still boasting proudly a moment ago, immediately had difficulty breathing.
"Lu, Lu Chenxiao, let go!"
How could Lu Chenxiao let go?
Not only did he not let go, he continued to tighten his grip.
Lu Yuanjing's face turned blue from being pinched, and then slowly turned purple.
Eunuch Shun was so frightened that his legs went limp.
He hurried forward and tried to pry open Lu Chenxiao's hands that were pinching Lu Yuanjing's neck.
"Prince Heng, let go quickly. You have already killed the emperor, so you cannot take Prince Yu's life, or you will be cursed by the world."
"Prince Yu, please apologize to Prince Heng and tell him that it was just a joke and he shouldn't take it seriously."
Lu Yuanjing wanted to refuse firmly, but the suffocation in his chest made him unable to hold up his nerve.
"Hold...Qian!"
Lu Chenxiao let go.
Lu Yuanjing stepped back suddenly, his back hitting the cell door behind him before he could barely stand still.
Facing Lu Chenxiao's icy gaze, he had to swallow the harsh words that were about to come out of his mouth.
"Don't think that I will be afraid of you just like that!"
"Just wait for me. One day you will beg for mercy at my feet."
Lu Chenxiao grabbed the porcelain bowl on the wooden table and pretended to throw it at him. Lu Yuanjing was so scared that he ran away madly.
No manners at all.
Eunuch Shun was left standing there, in a dilemma.
Lu Chenxiao spoke faintly, "Xiao Shunzi!"
"My lord!"
Eunuch Shun's legs softened and he knelt down in front of Lu Chenxiao.
He was an old man beside the late emperor.
When the late emperor was still alive, he liked to call him Xiao Shunzi.
When Prince Heng was young, he often went in and out of the imperial study and followed Xiao Shunzi, who had been called by the late emperor for a long time.
Since the passing of the previous emperor, he had not heard this title for a long time. When he suddenly heard it today, he couldn't help but burst into tears.
Lu Chenxiao quietly looked at the person in front of him who was about to shrink into a ball, and said in a cold and indifferent tone, "Is it worth betraying two generations of emperors for her?"
Eunuch Shun looked up in surprise. Prince Heng... knows everything?
"I remember that the late emperor wanted to let you out of the palace, but you refused. You said there was someone in the palace you wanted to protect..."
"Please spare my life, my lord. I have no other choice."
Lu Chenxiao sneered.
People always like to use "being forced" as an excuse, thinking that this way they don't have to bear the consequences of their mistakes.
Little did they know that it is not that easy.
He is not a good man!
"No hurry, I will leave this account to the end, and I will slowly settle it with you. Go back and wash your neck first, and wait for me."
Eunuch Shun finally walked out of the prison with a sad face.
The cell returned to silence, and Lu Chenxiao's face was gloomy.
He never doubted the viciousness of Lu Yuanjing and his mother. Shang'er could not do anything alone, so he had to go back to the enclosure to take a look.
As soon as the thought came to mind, Lu Kang's voice rang out in the darkness.
"Your Majesty, there is a letter from the princess via carrier pigeon."
"Bring it to me quickly!"
Lu Kang handed the note over and reported, "Your Majesty, please do not fall into Prince Yu's trap. Commander Qin returned to the capital only half an hour later than us."
"Qin Yimo has returned to the capital?"
"Yes, I came back secretly without alerting Prince Yu and Concubine Chen. Only the Qin family knew about it."
And their secret guards know.
Lu Chenxiao was very surprised.
When I opened the note and saw the familiar handwriting, my heart felt warmed.
Shang'er told him in the letter that the emperor's mask had been successfully removed.
It was also said that the master thief Mu Yi had seen an extremely cold medicinal herb that could cure the mute poison at the Qin family, and that he set out to steal the medicine at the Qin family in the afternoon.
Once the medicinal materials arrive, the emperor's mute poison can be cured immediately.
At the end of the letter, there are two very small words.
He looked carefully and realized that it was "Miss you".
My originally anxious heart suddenly calmed down.
He was also thinking about her.
However, knowing that Qin Yimo had returned to Beijing, his original worries no longer existed.
I have to deal with things quickly and make a quick resolution so that I can go back and hug my wife.
Otherwise the night would be long and hard to endure.
*
Three days later, Lu Chenxiao was taken to Qianzheng Hall.
The coffin of "Emperor Yuanqing" was placed in the center of the hall. Lu Yuanjing and Concubine Chen sat on the dragon throne together, overlooking the civil and military officials.
Every corner of the hall was filled with royal guards, shoulder to shoulder. The densely packed heads looked particularly creepy against the backdrop of white cloth and black banners.
Seeing Lu Chenxiao being brought here, Lu Yuanjing smiled triumphantly.
"The evidence of King Heng's regicide is irrefutable. He will now be beheaded and displayed to the public."
There was no lawsuit, and the Ministry of Justice was not involved. It was just based on one person's opinion.
A minister wanted to remind Lu Yuanjing that this was not in compliance with the law and ancestral system, but was stopped by Han Yi.
"Are you stupid? King Heng is already finished, why do you want to get involved in this now?"
"But it is not right to end King Heng's life so hastily, both in public and private."
"What do you know? The longer the night, the more dreams there are. Who knows what will go wrong tomorrow?"
"Can……"
"Don't say but. You must protect yourself at this time."
The executioner quickly took his position, and Lu Chenxiao was pushed to the center of the coffin of "Emperor Yuan Qing".
Lu Yuanjing shouted at Lu Chenxiao from a high position, "You have done such a treasonous thing, you must kowtow three times to the emperor's body first."
Lu Chenxiao asked indifferently, "How come I don't know that I have done something extremely treasonous? How about Lu Yuanjing, can you tell us in front of everyone?"
"Killing the king is treason! We all saw it with our own eyes. Lu Chenxiao, do you still want to quibble?"
"Regicide? That doesn't exist."
"I just killed a fake, but you took me away and imprisoned me without asking any questions. May I ask, when did the emperor give you the right to be regent?"
Lu Yuanjing paused.
Counterfeit?
How did Lu Chenxiao know that the dead person was a fake!
No, he couldn't lose his composure. Lu Chenxiao must be tricking him.
But just because he didn't ask doesn't mean others won't ask.
Lu Hetai was the first to express doubt, "What does His Royal Highness Prince Heng mean by this?"
"My brother and I have had a deep friendship since childhood. For my brother, I can sacrifice my life. How could I possibly turn my sword against him?"
Lu Hetai nodded subconsciously, "The friendship between the prince and the emperor is indeed well known. When I heard that the prince had killed the emperor that day, I was also surprised for a long time."
"Lord Lu!"
Jiang Yiyan said in dissatisfaction, "I saw it with my own eyes that day. Prince Heng stabbed the emperor's chest with a knife, causing him to suffer a severe heart injury and die. How could it be false!"
"Really?" Lu Chenxiao asked coldly, "Then how can Minister Jiang be sure that it must be the emperor who died?"
