You have asked for permission to marry, why should I restrain myself?

Chapter 388: Previous Life (32) Closing the net, paving the way for our Chen Er

Lin Zhaoyue also couldn't believe it.

Liu Yiyi is cheating on someone?

No matter what, Liu Yiyi's love for Xiao Yan is real.

She said she would believe anything he did, but she wouldn't believe him stealing someone's wife.

Lin Zhaoyue suddenly remembered the cup of tea with added ingredients that Xiao Yun gave to Liu Bojian.

When Xiao Yin arrived at Fengkun Palace in a grand manner, wearing only a brocade quilt, Liu Yiyi, who was pregnant, immediately threw herself at Xiao Yin's feet, crying and shouting:

"Brother Ying, you believed Yiyi, but Yiyi didn't. Yiyi really didn't betray Brother Ying..."

There are a mixture of new and old marks on Liu Yiyi's body. The old ones are probably from two or three days ago, and the new ones are from today.

But it was clear that two or three days ago, Xiao Yan was in Zhuyuan.

Lin Zhaoyue looked at Liu Bojian, who was also naked, and her little face was silent.

Xiao Yun looked at Liu Yiyi in front of him with a sad face and vomited the blood that had been accumulated for a long time.

Liu Yiyi crawled over and grabbed Xiao Yan's trouser leg, crying and saying:

"Brother Ying, Yiyi has not betrayed you. Yiyi loves you so much and is pregnant with the prince, how could she betray you? Brother Ying, you must believe in Yiyi..."

Looking at Liu Yiyi crying and begging Xiao Yan, a hint of contempt flashed in Liu Bojian's eyes.

Xiao Yan loves her so much, and he has been poisoned by the love poison, so it would be easy for him to be controlled by her. Why is she so scared?

At this moment, Liu Yiyi stretched out her hand, pointed at him and said:

"Your Majesty, it was him...he was the one who forced Yiyi."

Now that the evidence is conclusive, Liu Yiyi can only evade blame.

When Liu Bojian heard Liu Yiyi's words, his eyes were bloodshot.

"Liu Yiyi, what did you say?"

It was obvious that she had a fever and seduced him.

Xiao Yun looked at the two of them, took a step back, and pulled back the hem of his robe that was tightly held by Liu Yiyi. His voice was filled with uncontrollable sadness and anger.

“Xuan Xuan Ping Hou!”

……

In less than half an incense stick of time, the news of the Queen's adultery with her brother Liu Bojian spread like wildfire and soon spread throughout the palace. An hour later, the whole capital knew about it.

When Marquis Xuanping heard the news that Xiao Yun had told him to enter the palace, his heart was filled with unrest. When he was sitting in the carriage and listening to the discussions of the people, he felt as if struck by lightning.

"Hey, have you all heard? The Queen and Liu Bojian were caught committing adultery in Fengkun Palace."

"Hush, keep your voice down. If you talk nonsense about this kind of thing, you will be beheaded. Everyone knows that the current emperor and the queen are childhood sweethearts. His Majesty has always doted on the queen. The two of them are in love with each other. How could the queen commit adultery? Moreover, Liu Bojian is the queen's brother."

"I'm not talking nonsense. I have a brother working in the palace. This matter has spread all over the palace. It is said that His Majesty was so angry that he vomited blood."

"Oh my god! Didn't we hear that the Queen is pregnant with a prince? How could she have an affair?"

"Who knows? It's hard to say whether this child is your Majesty's."

"I think the Xuanping Marquisate is doomed! The daughter committed adultery with the eldest son. If His Majesty is ruthless, he might even execute all nine generations of the family. However, His Majesty has feelings for the Queen, so I guess he will just exile her and save her life."

"It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but difficult to go from luxury to frugality. For them, exile is probably worse than death..."

……

Marquis Xuanping walked over and listened to the discussions outside, looking dazed and with his fists clenched.

He could not believe that his eldest son would commit adultery with his daughter.

What's more, his daughter is pregnant with a prince.

Thinking of what Xiao Yun had done during this period, Marquis Xuanping broke out in a cold sweat on his forehead.

Could it be that Your Majesty knows what they did behind the scenes?

A minister cannot serve two masters. If that were the case...

Xuanping Hou clenched his fists, and after a while, he called his followers and ordered:

"Go and inform the Madam to take the people from the Xuanping Marquis's Mansion and leave the capital immediately. It doesn't matter where you go, but don't get caught by the court."

The follower was stunned for a moment, then clasped his hands and replied:

"Yes, Lord Marquis."

The carriage arrived at the palace. The coachman, who was also a close confidant of Marquis Xuanping, looked at him worriedly.

"Master Hou..."

Xuan Ping Hou tightened his hands hidden under his sleeves and shook his head at him.

"No problem. The person your majesty wants to deal with is me."

Under the guidance of his father-in-law, Marquis Xuanping came to Fengkun Palace.

At this moment, Fengkun Palace was dead silent, with only the occasional sobbing sound of Liu Yiyi being heard.

Xiao Yun stood there with a gloomy face, and no one knew how long he had been there.

"His Majesty."

As soon as Marquis Xuanping arrived at Fengkun Palace, he knelt down immediately.

He said nothing and just took off the black hat on his head.

"Your Majesty, I am guilty!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yun glanced at Liu Yiyi and Liu Bojian, who were only wrapped in bed sheets, and looked at Marquis Xuanping.

"Marquis Xuanping, you are indeed guilty. Look at the two children you raised. They disregarded human ethics and laws and did such a thing right under my nose! Do you take me seriously? Where do you put my face and the dignity of the royal family?"

Xiao Yun rarely gets angry, but at this moment, when he gets angry, the entire Fengkun Palace seems to be shaking.

Marquis Xuanping glanced at Liu Yiyi and Liu Bojian. Although the two of them were not wearing anything, he still firmly believed that they would not really do anything against common sense and were just framed.

But now, His Majesty has caught them in bed, and there are witnesses, so he can only admit it and see what Xiao Yan wants from him. This is the only way to save the lives of his two children.

He knelt on the ground, knocked his forehead heavily on the ground, and said:

"Your Majesty, I failed to educate my daughter and my son. I am guilty of this even if I die. However, I beg Your Majesty to spare their lives for my years of loyalty, my service to the late emperor, and my contributions in resisting the Northern Jue. I am willing to bear the full responsibility for this."

As he said this, Marquis Xuanping kowtowed heavily again.

Xiao Yun looked at Marquis Xuanping, his eyes suddenly turning cold.

"Marquis Xuanping, now that the Queen and Liu Aiqing have committed such an ugly act and such a heinous crime, if I let them go, how can I explain to the people of the world? Not to mention me, even the common people cannot tolerate it. Liu Yiyi, as the mother of a country, committed adultery with her brother while pregnant. This is a capital crime, worthy of the death penalty for the entire clan!"

When he got excited, Xiao Yan spat out another mouthful of blood, and then his body went limp and he fainted.

Eunuch Fu was extremely frightened. Ning Yi carried Xiao Yun on his back and went to Xiao Yun's bedroom. Eunuch Fu hurriedly asked someone to call the imperial physician.

Xiao Yun was "unconscious" for three days. The civil and military officials in the court were extremely anxious. They criticized Marquis Xuanping, Liu Yiyi and Liu Bojian, and one memorial after another continued to pile up on the dragon desk.

Some directly cursed them for violating the law, damaging the royal dignity, trampling on human ethics, and saying that they should be killed along with their entire clan.

Others said that Xuanping Hou had made great contributions and worked diligently for the country for many years, and their children were temporarily bewildered and committed a serious crime, but the crime was not punishable by death. Xuanping Hou did not teach his children well, so he was stripped of his title, deprived of all official positions of the Liu family, and exiled to the border...

There were all kinds of explanations, but Xiao Yan was still unconscious.

Another minister reported that the baby in Liu Yiyi's belly might be a disaster and offended the emperor, which caused His Majesty to fall into a coma.

Marquis Xuanping, Liu Bojian and Liu Yiyi knelt in front of Xiao Yun's bedroom for three days and three nights. During this time, Liu Yiyi fainted once and was sent back to Fengkun Palace for recuperation.

On the evening of the third day, Marquis Xuanping handed a list to Xiao Ying.

The names above are all members of the eldest prince's party and disciples of Marquis Xuanping.

Xiao Yan was wearing a pure black undergarment, leaning on the dragon bed with a pale face. He held the list with his slender fingers, glanced at it, and handed it to Ning Yi:

"Go back to Zhuyuan and give it to Shen Yanzhou, and let him handle everything."

"Yes."

Ning Yi bowed and left Xiao Yan's bedroom quietly.

Shen Yanzhou just returned to the capital yesterday and was playing with Xiao Jingchen.

Every time Shen Yanzhou went out, he would bring some strange little gadgets to Xiao Jingchen, and Xiao Jingchen liked him very much.

Seeing Ning Yi coming back, Shen Yanzhou had a bad feeling in his heart. Sure enough, when he heard Ning Yi's words and took the list, he instantly collapsed on the chair, like a salted fish, motionless, as if dead.

Oh my God, isn’t Shen Yanzhou’s life just a life?

Can't he be given two more days to rest?

He hasn't had a good time with Chen'er for a long time.

Seeing that he was unhappy, Xiao Jingchen said in a childish voice:

"Uncle Shen, what's wrong with you?"

Children's voices are sometimes the best medicine to heal life.

Shen Yanzhou was immediately revived with full health.

Xiao Jingchen grew up under his care, and he has some different feelings towards him.

He stood up, pinched Xiao Jingchen's little face, and said:

"Uncle, it's okay. Chen'er will be waiting in the bamboo garden! Soon, Chen'er will be able to leave the bamboo garden and play with other children."

Xiao Jingchen nodded obediently, and seeing that he seemed to be going out, he asked:

"Is Uncle Shen going out again? What is he going to do this time? Will it be dangerous?"

After saying this, he paused for a moment, took out a small purse, and took out a amulet from it and gave it to him.

"This is the amulet that Grand Master gave to Chen'er. Chen'er has four of them. This one is for Uncle Shen. I hope it can keep Uncle Shen safe!"

Shen Yanzhou's heart was immediately touched and felt warm.

But Master Bai Mozi usually has particulars about what he gives, and he cannot accept it.

"Thank you Chen'er for your kindness. With Chen'er's blessing, Uncle Shen will be safe. You are in Zhuyuan, just don't bully your fourth uncle. Uncle Shen is going to pave the way."

As Shen Yanzhou spoke, he looked at Lin Qingchen who was practicing making clay figures not far away.

With Lin Qingchen's brain, Xiao Jingchen was really able to fool her.

Xiao Jingchen looked at Shen Yanzhou in confusion.

"Uncle Shen is going to pave the road?"

"Well, pave the way for our Chen'er."

After Shen Yanzhou carried Xiao Jingchen around for a while and was about to leave, he heard Xiao Jingchen asking the same question he had asked countless times in the past three days.

"Uncle Shen, when will father come back?"

Shen Yanzhou: ...

He remembered that he was not so clingy to Xiao Yan before, but why did he seem to be much clingier after coming back this time?

But when he remembered what the steward said about Xiao Yan locking himself in a dark room for three days, he understood.

Although Xiao Jingchen was precocious, he was only a three-year-old child after all, and was probably frightened by that incident.

"Your father has a lot of official business to attend to, so he will probably be back tomorrow."

Xiao Jingchen said "oh" and sent Shen Yanzhou to the door. Then he came back feeling depressed.

He hadn't seen his mother for several days and missed her...

……

royal palace.

Xiao Yun was in a coma for three days. It was not until the fourth day that Feng Xin brought Doctor Li to the palace and he "wore up" at noon with his miraculous healing skills.

Suddenly, the entire Imperial Hospital, civil and military officials, breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your Majesty, you finally woke up. I was scared to death."

Xiao Yan looked at Eunuch Fu in front of him and said:

"What's the situation now?"

Eunuch Fu wiped his tears and said:

"Marquis Xuanping and the Queen have been kneeling at the door until now."

"Undress me, I'll go take a look."

The tightly closed door finally opened, and Liu Yiyi almost pounced on it, but her legs were numb from kneeling for too long.

"Brother Ying..."

She spoke weakly, her eyes were red, and she looked extremely aggrieved.
