Zhao Fan's face was stained with blood, it was impossible to tell how he looked like. He paused for a moment, then got up from the crowd's support, and knelt down towards Old Emperor, "Your son, Zhao Fan, begs royal father to make the decision!"
Zhao Yi said: "Why are you going to Xie Heng's residence anyway?"
"Your son has only... "But …"
Zhao Fan knelt in the middle of the hall, his entire body covered with whip marks, and his voice was extremely weak, "I saw a woman in the palace. This woman looks extremely similar to the assassin who assassinated me not long ago. Who would have thought that the people of Xie Heng's residence would be so arrogant, and almost killed me … "
Compared to the crown prince and the Prince Rui, the was not that prominent. The only reason she liked the Fourth Prince was because she had a good temper and could get along well with others.
When they suddenly woke up from their coma and spoke such words, they immediately affirmed the words Imperial Consort Wu had accused Xie Heng earlier. Everyone couldn't help but plan in their hearts, for the two brothers from Xie Family were probably going to suffer from some bad luck.
"Assassin?"
The moment Zhao Yi heard these two words, his expression immediately darkened, "When did you get ambushed? Why didn't you mention it before?"
Zhao Fan said in a low voice, "Royal father has so much to do every day, how can this son disturb royal father over such a small matter."
As soon as he finished speaking, Imperial Consort Wu hugged him and cried, "Your majesty! Fan'er was a very sensible person, and if it wasn't for the fact that he almost lost his life, he would never have caused such a ruckus in front of the emperor. It's all my fault, I was just angered. The dignified prince was actually beaten to such a state by a mere commoner of my clan … "
Ever since Zhao Fan woke up and started to show his weakness, Imperial Consort Wu no longer forced Old Emperor to do what he had to do.
Zhao Fan, who had been beaten bloody from the beating, spoke again: "This son has been too impatient today. Right now, his Great Yan was lacking a good general, the General Xie … royal father, please do not blame this General Xie … "
"My son!"
Imperial Consort Wu hugged Zhao Fan and shouted once again as though she could no longer say anything, she could only lower her voice and cry.
"It's just a cover, how can you make it look like you're begging for it!" Zhao Yi frowned: "Since we are chasing after the assassin, then who is the assassin? Why is it in Xie Heng's residence? "
Although this mother and son pair seemed to be in a vulnerable situation, the attitude that the Old Emperor had towards them was clearly much better.
Zhao Fan wanted to say something but hesitated.
Zhao Yi said: "Xie Heng!"
Although it was only two words, Old Emperor's attitude was evidently much colder and harder than it was in the beginning.
Xie Heng raised his head and laughed: "Fourth Prince said that the woman in the family was an assassin who tried to assassinate him.
"The people in my residence were all bestowed by the Emperor. There was only one Young Madame, and they were all weak and powerless. They couldn't even lift their swords, so how could they assassinate my Fourth Prince?"
A cold glint flashed past Zhao Fan's eyes: "Then, I'll have to ask how that Young Madame in General Xie's residence did it."
Zhao Yi said in a low voice: "Go to the Xie's Mansion, bring him here for questioning!"
Xie Xuan suddenly leaned over, Xie Heng reached out to support him, raised his head and said: "For matters of the imperial court, there's no need to endanger the women in the family!"
Before Zhao Yi could say anything, everyone in the hall had already formed a plan, and someone stepped out: "Xie Heng clearly has something on his mind, the Young Madame in his residence probably ran away after hearing the news!"
"It's normal for Xie Heng to be arrogant, but now that he dares to openly insult the Fourth Prince, his intentions... This is really dangerous, please take the lead, Prince or Fourth Prince, and use righteousness! "
"Xie Heng is very ruthless. If we were to let him lead troops to protect the kingdom, I'm afraid we won't even be able to save our lives …"
"If today's matter wasn't severely punished, wouldn't Fourth Prince have been beaten up for nothing? I beg the Emperor to severely punish Xie Heng! "
"I second that!"
More than half of the officials in the hall bowed and asked for orders, while the rest remained silent, wanting to stay out of this matter.
Instantly, the discussions of the people in the hall were one-sided.
Xie Heng got up with a flick of his sleeve, and the corner of his mouth unconsciously raised into a cold arc. He looked at the Old Emperor, and just as he was about to speak, an attendant hurried in from outside, "Reporting to your majesty, Wen Jiu has arrived!"
Xie Heng suddenly stopped, and looked back. Just as the hall door opened, a strong gust of wind blew behind the girl dressed in the snow, causing her black hair to flutter in the wind. She was clearly in a sorry state, yet the person who was walking in the opposite direction at this moment, was enough to cause one's heart to immediately fill up.
Wen Jiu was crazy.
Xie Heng thought.
But he really wanted to laugh, since most of these arrogant people from Great Yan had arrived at their old Xie Family.
"Wen Jiu greets the Emperor!"
Wen Jiu did not kneel, and only bowed.
She was standing beside Xie Heng when she heard the young man asking her in a low voice, "Why are you here?"
Xie Xuan, who was at the side, also looked over. It was probably because his face had been frozen by the wind outside, but he did not look afraid, instead he looked extremely calm.
Her voice was neither light nor loud, "My two brothers, you have been wronged. How can Wen Jiu rest easy at home?"
Xie Heng unconsciously retracted his hand under his sleeve, and for a moment, he didn't know what to say.
Everyone in the hall returned to their senses, and they were all startled. They didn't even have the time to open their mouths to speak.
Wen Jiu suddenly turned around and looked at Zhao Fan who was covered in whip marks, "This … is it the Fourth Prince? "
"How dare you!" The Imperial Consort Wu shouted harshly. His voice, which had been swept into the hall by the north wind, did not go away for a long time.
He truly had an imposing manner.
Zhao Fan also looked at her. His gaze was gloomy and unclear for a long time.
"Is it, or isn't it?"
Wen Jiu's face was stiff, her hands were tightly holding onto the package, water continuously dripping down, cold to the point of being unconscious, but she did not dare to put it down.
That was the life of their Xie Family.
Wang Liang who was beside the Old Emperor spoke: "That is the current Fourth Prince."
"Alright."
Wen Jiu met Zhao Fan's gaze, "I wonder what was the excuse Fourth Prince had? Even if you want our Xie Family to overturn in its entirety, you must at least explain the crime! "
In the past, she was very afraid of Zhao Fan. Every time she saw the person who looked at her with that gaze, she would feel a strong desire for him, like he was collecting items.
She had died in this person's hands in her previous life and she had almost lost her life to him not long ago. But now, there were two youths with Xie Family by her side.
He couldn't be afraid.
He could not retreat either.
Now that he had a heart full of resentment, who cared about what would happen in the future?
Zhao Fan looked at her and said: "royal father … "Your son has clearly seen that this woman was not the one who assassinated me that day …"
Zhao Yi frowned, his face as dark as water.
"Back then, it was indeed not me who was trying to assassinate the Fourth Prince, but a black-clothed man who was holding me hostage with his Changping County, forcing me to bring him along to escape. He had almost taken my life!"
Wen Jiu suddenly opened her mouth, and amidst the dead silence within the hall, she opened her mouth once again: "Yesterday, when I was rushing into the palace, that person wanted to kill me to get to the General's Mansion, I never knew that he was actually the current Fourth Prince …"
Zhao Fan interrupted coldly: "Bullsh * t!"
"If that's nonsense, where did the evidence come from?"
Wen Jiu furiously raised his eyes, and suddenly smashed the package in his hands heavily onto the center of the hall. The package instantly dispersed, and when everyone looked, their faces turned white at the same time …
