Empress, you don't want to be thrown into limbo by your father, do you?

Guo Peng!

It turned out to be Guo Peng!
That person, the man who had an affair with Empress Qi was actually Guo Peng, the envoy of Shannan Jiedu? !
The truth came out from Duke Qi's mouth, which directly caused everyone in the hall to gasp!
"How could it be Guo Peng?!"

"So it is, so it is!"

"It's no wonder Guo Peng, a rebellious minister, would help the prince to do evil and help the prince to seek rebellion and usurp the throne! It turns out that this is the truth behind it!"

"What a plan! What a plan! If it weren't for His Royal Highness Shou Wang's return to Beijing to turn the tide and stop the prince and Guo Peng's wolf ambitions, wouldn't my grand deeds fall into the hands of these rebellious officials and thieves?!"

The ministers of the noble concubine's party were all filled with righteous indignation. They wanted to kill the prince at first, but now they are adding fuel to the situation. One by one is heartbroken, and one by one scolds and scolds!

The prime minister was speechless, and others might doubt and ask questions when they said it, but Qi Guogong is the uncle of the crown prince, and the younger brother of Empress Qi's mother and compatriots!
His words are highly credible!
Clang!
When Emperor Qianming learned the truth, he pulled out the saber of the deputy commander of the Imperial Forest Army beside him, and was about to stab the prince and Guo Peng to death.

It's a pity that Li Changshou won't let them die so happily, where are they now?
Wouldn't it be a waste of follow-up to die so quickly?
Hastily stepped forward to stop him, persuading him, "Father, calm down!"

"Get out of the way! I'm going to kill this bastard!"

Emperor Ganming roared, and the crown prince turned pale with fright and knelt on the ground begging for mercy and arguing, "Father is wronged! My son was wronged!"

"Wronged? You still say you were wronged?!"

"Your minister is really wronged! Qi Guogong's words are not true! Who is the queen mother? Don't you know the father? The mother queen is a worthy queen who is admired by everyone in the world! How can it be possible to have an affair with someone! The father is a bright lesson! "

At this critical moment, the prince knew very well that he couldn't admit it!

Otherwise, his little life will really be gone. If he doesn't admit that maybe he still has the possibility of surviving, even if he is demoted to a commoner or even put under house arrest for decades, he can still live at least!

Hearing the crown prince mentioning Empress Qi, Emperor Ganming also paused.

Speaking of it, Emperor Qianming and Empress Qi once had a deep love between husband and wife, which was regarded as a good story, especially when Emperor Qianming had not yet ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, but was just a prince. During that most difficult time, Empress Qi never left her to be knowledgeable and reasonable.

Recalling the past, Emperor Ganming also stopped his hand, but he still couldn't let go of his anger. Although he didn't stab him with a knife, he kicked the prince hard, and he still kicked him several times before being supported by Li Changshou. stable.

"Qi Guogong, you said that the prince's biological father is Guo Peng, but as far as I know, Empress Qi's mother Yi Tianxia never lost her virtue, and Guo Peng was not in the capital back then, how could he secretly have an affair?!"

Li Changshou deliberately asked questions, and this was also the doubt in the hearts of the prime minister and a group of ministers from the Qing School.

Zhang Laocheng nodded repeatedly, "What His Highness is thinking is exactly what the old minister is puzzled about. Qi Guogong, you are the empress's brother. Could it be that there is something that His Majesty and I are not aware of?"

"Duke Qi, Your Majesty remembers the meritorious service of your ancestors of the Qi family, but you can spare the lives of the rest of the Qi family. Why don't you recruit them now?!"

The imperial concubine was also putting pressure on her, even using the magic sound of enchantment unique to the magic gate!
That is to say, everyone's attention is now on the prince's life experience, and no one has noticed, otherwise someone will definitely be suspicious.

"Your Majesty, every word of the minister is true, and there is absolutely no falsehood!"

Qi Guogong knew that he was bound to die, but with so many people in the Qi family, he naturally wanted to find a way out for them, and it would not do any good for him to hide it now.

Therefore, he spoke out all the past events that he knew.

"Your Majesty, do you still remember that tour to the North more than 20 years ago?"

The Northern Tour more than 20 years ago?

Emperor Qianming's face changed when he heard the words. He had actually been suspicious for a long time, and the prime minister and the others also thought of what happened back then, and someone suddenly exclaimed, "Your Majesty met barbarians from Mobei and went south during his northern tour. I remember that when your Majesty was in danger, fortunately Huo The general sent troops to help, so he survived!"

"Yes, I also remember! When the barbarians in Mobei made a surprise attack, His Majesty and the Empress were on their way to the north. Later, the Empress and Her Majesty disappeared for several days without any news. At one time, they thought that the Empress had died unfortunately, but in the end..."

I don't know which minister recalled the beginning, but he stopped in the middle of the conversation, and looked at Guo Peng with a strange expression on his face.

Many people have never forgotten what happened back then. After all, the emperor of a country almost died during his northern tour. It was an extremely serious accident. How could he forget it?

And remembering what happened back then, the prime minister and the others suddenly realized.

"Back then, General Huo sent people to search for the queen, and in the end Guo Peng, who joined the army in Yanzhou, found the queen and rescued her!"

Correct!
More than 20 years ago, the emperor and empress separated from each other. During the time of war and chaos, Emperor Qianming, as the emperor, naturally had many guards around him.

However, the queen's whereabouts are unknown, and she does not know whether she is alive or dead.

Back then, the Huo family was at its peak and was extremely favored, so they naturally sent troops to search and rescue. Guo Peng, as a general of the Huo family and Yanzhou joined the army, rescued the queen by himself!

Get rewarded for it!
Since Qi Guogong had chosen to tell the truth, he completely let go of everything, raised his head and said, "Your Majesty, it was that northern tour!"

As Qi Guogong revealed the past, a secret that had been concealed for more than 20 years was finally unveiled.

The life experience of Prince Li Cheng has finally been revealed!

"then……"

It turned out that Emperor Qianming and Empress Qi were separated in the chaos of war, and there was no news for several days. The Huo family naturally did not dare to make mistakes. Among them, Guo Peng, who joined the army in Yanzhou and was the deputy general of the Huo family, volunteered to search and rescue with hundreds of Qingqi.

Finally, three days later, the whereabouts of Empress Qi were found. At that time, Empress Qi had been discovered by a small group of scouts from the barbarians in Mobei. General Huo and Guo Peng desperately rescued the Empress at a critical moment.

But there were only a few hundred people in the area, and soon attracted the main force of the barbarians in Mobei. In order to prevent the queen from falling into the opponent's hands and being humiliated, General Huo led hundreds of people alone to kill the queen, and let Guo Peng lead the queen alone. Walk.

Many people knew all this back then, but no one would have thought that it was General Huo's decision that caused a series of unjust cases and grievances.

In the middle of the journey, Guo Peng took advantage of the weak and unprepared queen, and made an outrageous act!

She even defiled the queen by committing the following crimes, and it was after that time that the queen found out that she was pregnant not long after, but neither the queen nor Guo Peng could let people know about it!
After all, it was a capital crime of beheading, so everything was concealed.

"Your Majesty, this is all the truth that I know. Back then, it was Guo Peng, a bastard who took advantage of the empress's inability to resist and made that beastly act. Later, he threatened to make the empress dare not speak out! Your Majesty!"

The Duke of Qi cried bitterly, and the prince heard how he was born, and his face was ashamed.

Only Guo Peng, who knew he was going to die anyway, showed complacency and sarcasm at the moment.

The prime minister and others don't know what to say anymore, the prince's life experience was revealed, but they have been supporting the prince all these years, thinking about it now, it's frightening!
When Emperor Qianming learned the truth, once the knot in his heart that had tortured him for more than 20 years was unraveled, he was not relieved at all.

Instead, more pain and anger.

What is painful is the majestic son of heaven, but the crown prince he established is not of his own blood.

And what is angry is that as the king of a country, he was put on a big hat by his courtiers!

"Come here, take this evil beast..."

"Father! Father, spare me! This son is your child, you have to trust him!"

When the crown prince heard that he was going to kill him, he struggled and begged for mercy, "Qi Wuji! You crazy dog! The queen mother is your own sister, how can you talk such nonsense and trap the queen mother into injustice?!"

Faced with the prince's scolding and roaring, Qi Guogong dared not speak out.

"Father, these are all the words of Qi Wuji's mad dog family! He has no evidence at all! Father, you must not fall into the tricks of the villain!"

evidence!

The prime minister was taken aback when he heard the words, yes, it was indeed the words of Qi Guogong's family, although his statements were highly credible, but the matter was of great importance.

"Qi Guogong, do you have evidence to prove what you just said?"

Li Changshou interrogated Emperor Qianming, and now everyone could see that Emperor Qianming was going to pass on the throne to him, and now there were tens of thousands of troops brought by Li Changshou, smart people knew how to choose.

"evidence?"

Duke Qi was at a loss for words, and then smiled wryly, "If General Huo is still alive, it would be the best witness, unfortunately..."

"General Huo? What does this matter have to do with the Huo family?"

Everyone was puzzled when they heard it, and Emperor Qianming asked out of breath, "Why did you mention the Huo family?"

"Your Majesty, do you know that General Huo found out that the Empress and Guo Peng had an affair, and that's what caused the murder? Could it be that Your Majesty really mistakenly thought that the Huo family would have rebellion and wanted to rebel?!"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone couldn't help being shocked!
Especially Emperor Qianming was even more speechless.

Was he really clueless about the case of the Huo family back then?

It's just pretending to be ignorant, and at the same time, the Huo family's military skills are too high, and they have reached the point where they are the masters of high skills!
"Back then, General Huo ran into her accidentally. In order not to reveal the secret, at the same time, the elder sister of the minister, the queen, was already in love with General Huo and hated that it was not General Huo but Guo Peng who escorted her back. This led to her loss of virginity." Defiled!"

"Your Majesty! The Huo family has never objected! General Huo has always been loyal!"

"Everything is a secret collusion between the queen and Guo Peng, trapping Huo's family and being ransacked by the whole family, so as to silence the rumors!"

No one thought that the life experience of the prince would involve the Huo family's injustice case 20 years ago. Now that they heard the truth, the prime minister and others couldn't help being moved.

And Emperor Qianming even closed his eyes, not daring to let others see the guilt and regret deep in his eyes.

He is the emperor, the king of a country!
Never admit that you did something wrong!

"Qi Wuji! These are all your one-sided words! The Huo family is dead long ago, how can you prove it?!"

The crown prince's voice is fierce, and now he has to deny it, only in this way can he survive!

Yes, evidence!
How can you be convincing if you can deny it without evidence?

Even though everyone already believed it seven or eight points, there was no hard evidence that could be produced after all.

Emperor Gan Ming didn't say a word, no one knew what was going on in his mind.

But can you avoid it without making a sound?

The corners of Li Changshou's calm mouth rose slightly, the prince's last hope of survival was about to be shattered!
And this time!
An extremely old voice suddenly sounded in the hall.

"As for the evidence, the old man happens to have it in his hand."
