Chapter 133 Don't expect me to save you

When had this beggar seen so many big men, he was almost lying on the ground, trembling, not daring to breathe.

"Caomin... Caomin kowtows to Master Qingtian..."

"Excuse me, are you a beggar?" Cao Gongyi frowned.

"Yes... yes... grassroots are just leftovers..." the beggar answered truthfully.

"Then you have seen this person?" Cao Gongyi pointed at Chu Nanxiao.

Hearing this, the beggar raised his head cautiously and looked at Chu Nanxiao's face. Then, his face turned pale within a moment, he took two steps back in a panic, and opened his mouth tremblingly.

"you you…"

His current appearance has obviously given everyone the answer.

Cao Gongyi glanced at Chu Huafeng without leaving a trace, and continued, "It seems that you have met the Third Prince, so I would like to ask you, when did you meet the Third Prince, and what did you see? Tell me what you know Say it all!"

"I..." Cold sweat broke out on the beggar's forehead.

Cao Gongyi said again: "You can speak boldly."

Gou Sheng swallowed nervously, and finally spoke.

"On the morning of five days ago, Cao Min was going to Nanhu Lake to wash his face, but before he arrived, he found someone on the shore. He was tall and holding a boy in his hand..."

As he said that, Gou Sheng's eyes gradually frightened, "Cao... Cao Min thought that the other party went to wash his face or go for a walk like Cao Min, but the next moment, Cao Min saw that person throwing the boy in his hand into the lakeside."

His head drooped, "Caomin was terrified, turned around and ran away, but Caomin would never mistake this face."

There were discussions in the courtroom in an instant.

"I didn't expect it was really done by the third prince!"

"I still can't believe it..."

"But the prince's body was found in Nanhu!!!"

Cao Gongyi slapped the gavel, and immediately suppressed the restlessness in the hall, "Third Prince, what else do you have to say?"

Chu Nanxiao closed his eyes with a sarcasm, "Even if I said that I never showed up by the South Lake that day, no one would believe me!"

Jiang Yue felt the same way, and Wang Shu had been by Chu Nanxiao's side all the time, so he must know everything, but as Chu Nanxiao's confidant, his confession could not be used as evidence at all.

Next to him, the emperor who hadn't spoken since the beginning of the interrogation finally said with grief: "I never thought that the third brother would hurt his own nephew. What did the prince do to make the third brother so intolerable for him..."

The empress dowager's eyes were already red, and she wiped her tears with a handkerchief, "What did the Ai family's grandson do wrong, third child, thanks to the Ai family's and the emperor's trust in you, are you worthy of the people of Tianyue Kingdom?"

Even Chu Huafeng was full of disappointment, "Third brother, you should never have done such nasty things."

"That's right... the Third Prince, as the God of War of our Tianyue Kingdom, this move is really chilling!!!"

"That's right - the ministers also agreed.

And Chu Nanxiao had already given up speaking out to defend himself. He understood that it was useless to say anything else. It was clear that someone had set him up for him. Who was it? The Queen Mother...or Chu Huafeng...

Obviously, Chu Huafeng was more suspicious. After all, no matter what, the Queen Mother would not joke about her own grandson's life.

"Your Majesty!" Seeing that the matter was a foregone conclusion, Cao Gongyi stood up respectfully and bowed to the emperor. Although he was in charge of the overall situation, the final decision was still in the hands of the emperor.

In addition, murdering the prince is a serious crime against the nine clans, so he dare not make rash decisions.

Soon, the emperor issued an order, and Cao Gongyi sat on the throne again.

"Nan Xiao..." Su Mei murmured in a low voice, clenched her fist at her side.

As for Jiang Yue, after looking at the man, she was a little dazed. At that moment just now, she seemed to see guilt in the man's eyes, but how could it be, she must have misread it.

"It has been verified that the third prince is suspected of killing the current crown prince, which is a heinous crime. Considering that he has made great achievements for the country, he is sentenced to be stripped of his title of Pingnan King, his territorial property will be taken back, and he will be distributed to the frontier..."

Snapped--
The sound of the gavel slapping the desk was heard again, and all the ministers sighed endlessly. The emperor and the queen mother also got up and prepared to leave, but when they passed by Chu Nanxiao, the emperor's footsteps paused slightly, and the low and unrecognizable voice came to Chu Nanxiao. In Nan Xiao's ears.

"Third brother, I wish you good luck!"

Chu Nanxiao twitched the corners of his lips, and replied: "Please trouble the emperor to worry!"

But the Queen Mother didn't even look at Jiang Yue, and with the support of Nanny Rong, she disappeared from her sight. Sure enough, what she said before, about supporting Jiang Yue, was just a lie.

But in this way, they failed to see the resentment in Jiang Yue's eyes that was about to turn into substance.

Chu Huafeng was still sitting in the wooden wheelchair. The sadness on his face didn't seem fake, but it couldn't be said how real it was, but on the surface, he was still a good brother who wanted to help Chu Nanxiao.

"Third brother, it's not that second brother doesn't want to help you, but what you did this time is really too much." When the words fell, she was pushed away by Juan'er.

Cao Gongyi only looked at Jiang Yue and Su Mei when they were almost gone, "If you two have nothing to do, please pack up and leave Pingnan Palace as soon as possible."

After finishing speaking, he waved his hand, "Take the prisoner down, and we will set off in a few days, and send them to the frontier."

After leaving the court, Su Meifang seemed to have not recovered from what happened before, even walking staggeringly, if not for Yu'er's support, she might fall to the ground.

"Master, what should we do?" Yu'er wiped her tears, a little in disbelief that the majestic Pingnan Palace was destroyed overnight.

Su Mei finally calmed down, bit her lips and said, "Let's go back first!" After walking two steps, she paused again and looked back at Jiang Yue, "Now that the Pingnan Palace is gone, we will have nothing to do with each other in the future. Don't expect me to save you."

Jiang Yue's face was full of weirdness, did she look like the kind of person who needed help?

But she didn't refute anything, and nodded, "Don't worry, you take your Yangguan Road, and I will cross my single-plank bridge." Besides, the Pingnan Palace will return to Chu Nanxiao's hands sooner or later, and they will see each other soon up.

Besides, she believed that Su Mei had already decided how to deal with Chu Nanxiao.

Anyway, everyone still has to go back to Pingnan Palace. In the final analysis, they just pack up their things before leaving. Jiang Yue's destination is very simple. Didn't she buy a small yard? ! !
However, in less than half an hour, the entire palace was surrounded by the imperial guards, and then Wei Zhong appeared in front of everyone, and said with a fierce face, "Now, I will give you a cup of tea, hurry up!" leave quickly."

The servants who were still staying in the palace suddenly panicked, and there were jitters everywhere.

It happened that Jiang Yue walked to the front yard with her small bag on her back, and the two bumped into each other.

After all, she and Wei Zhong knew each other, and the latter's attitude towards her was obviously different from that of others, and he was very polite, "Three...Miss Jiang, are you leaving?" Realizing that Jiang Yue is no longer the third princess, He quickly changed his words.

Jiang Yue raised her eyebrows, protected her small bag almost subconsciously, and said, "Of course I have to leave. Chu Nanxiao has been exiled, and the palace will be sealed immediately. What am I doing here!!!"

Wei Zhong's eyes flickered slightly, "What Miss Jiang said is true!"

"Then I'm leaving?" Jiang Yue pointed to the imperial guards at the door.

"Get out of the way!" Wei Zhong nodded.
