The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1040

Moreover, the answer was irrelevant.

Those people outside the mourning hall naturally didn't know the whole story and therefore had no suspicions.

This time, the woman not only lost her child, but also her husband.

Everyone in the mansion was horrified.

Fear was etched on the faces of every one of them.

No one knows exactly how this happened.

Her eyes also lost all their light for a moment.

"Madam, the Prince wishes to see you."

The steward of the manor came up and whispered in the lady's ear.

The lady seemed to have finally heard clearly, after all, the butler had been calling out several times from the side.

The woman slowly raised her eyes and looked in Xu Tian's direction.

A similar light flickered in her eyes.

Xu Tian couldn't explain it either; what exactly was it?

The lady stood up, and perhaps because she had been kneeling for too long, she staggered.

If it weren't for a quick-witted girl by my side...

She probably already fell flat on her face.

Xu Tian pretended not to see anything.

He wouldn't have agreed so readily if it weren't for the imperial edict.

After seeing Xu Tian, ​​this woman went completely mad.

"Give me your life! Give me back the lives of my whole family!"

Xu Tian stood there calmly, as if nothing had happened.

After the housekeeper explained the situation to the woman, she regained her composure and bowed respectfully.

Xu Tian frowned.

But in the end, he didn't say anything and just left.

After returning to the palace, he began to recall what had just happened.

It seems that woman was just pretending to be crazy!

But he was somewhat suspicious.

why?

After thinking for a moment, his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Is it because they're afraid someone will kill them to cover their tracks?"

He thought about it for a long time but couldn't come up with a solution, so this was the only practical one.

The woman knew about this because it was clearly revenge.

And she didn't even know who the person who was taking revenge on them was.

He even knew that Xu Tian and his group would never avenge him.

The matter of the Minister of Justice quickly reached the imperial court.

The Minister's wife sued that her family had been murdered by Wu and others!

Wu and the others immediately deflected the question, saying, "Those things were all gifts from His Majesty, how could there be any problem?"

He completely denied the matter and shifted all the blame onto Li Zhi.

In the imperial court, everyone looked at each other, unsure of how to handle the matter.

Xu Tian frowned slightly, and the people below the court began to discuss this.

But everyone already knows what Li Zhi is really thinking.

No one dared to comment on this matter.

They believed that the general had offended Li Zhi and was therefore assassinated.

And it was so direct.

Upon hearing Wu's words, Li Zhi flew into a rage.

"Wu Deng, how dare you! Those were all gifts bestowed upon you by me. What are you doing now?"

"You actually gave everything away to others, and not only that, you even dared to poison those things. This is simply unforgivable, and your crime is compounded."

Wu and others were suddenly labeled with so many accusations.

He suddenly panicked.

But because he was the emperor, he seemed somewhat powerless, even though he kept trying to excuse himself.

But Li Zhi acted as if he hadn't heard at all and piled all the blame on him.

In the end, these ministers all believed that Wu and others were indeed responsible for this matter, and that Li Zhi had absolutely nothing to do with it.

Wu and others raised their voices, protesting their innocence. But Li Zhi acted as if he hadn't heard them at all.
