Chapter 442: Say Everything
The Queen Mother originally thought that Taoist Zhang had many magical skills, and maybe he could also reverse men and women, and reverse yin and yang. The Queen Mother really didn't want the throne to fall into the hands of a branch.
The emperor waved his hand and asked the commander of the city guard to leave.
There were only mother and son left in the hall. The Queen Mother asked: "Emperor, aren't you curious about the truth? Don't you want to know whose fate Li changed? Don't you want to meet this person?"
The emperor sighed: "You are old, even if you know the truth, what can you do now?"
If it were ten years ago, the emperor might have investigated the truth to the end, but he was nearly fifty years old. The closer he was to the age of knowing his destiny, the more he felt that some things were irreversible. He was very satisfied to welcome a new life at such an age.
The Queen Mother looked at her son distressedly, and couldn't help thinking that without Li's interference, maybe her son would have had both sons and daughters, and he would not be so lonely today.
"Emperor, how are you going to deal with Li?" the Queen Mother asked.
With Xin Yuanming's death, the emperor seemed to suddenly wake up. In an instant, he lost all his favoritism towards Li. His past memories were like a layer of gray light. He couldn't imagine that he would favor such a vicious woman as Li.
"Mother, Li will be handed over to you. I am unfilial. I favored Li before and almost let her harm you." The emperor was full of guilt.
The queen mother felt relieved when she saw her son with clear eyes. Besides, there was no overnight hatred between mother and son. But the queen mother still took precautions in advance and said, "If I treat her with the most cruel means in the world, will you think your mother is cruel?"
The emperor immediately shook his head: "Li colluded with the criminal Li Chaosheng and poisoned the medicine of the queen mother. Such evil deeds are not too much to be executed by slow slicing."
The queen mother saw that he really had no feelings for Li anymore, and she was relieved.
Li Ziqin's assassination of an imperial official shocked the court and the public. The Li family lost favor in the palace, and Li Ziqin, the head of the family, had died. Immediately, like monkeys scattering when a tree falls, everyone rushed up to trample on the Li family.
Gu Mingda summoned Wang He to the mansion and said, "Now it's time for you to take revenge. I will write an impeachment and tell you all about your past with the Li family."
Wang He didn't expect that she could wait until the day when her enemy was executed. She knelt down immediately.
"Please seek justice for my entire family of 38 people and my maternal grandfather's family of 22 people!"
Gu Mingda listened to Wang He's narration and felt that things in this world were really a coincidence. Wang He's maternal grandfather's family was the family that sold braised food, and the braised food recipe was passed on to the Gu family.
These two families were all tempted by money. The Li family was greedy and relied on the power of the imperial concubine and Li Ziqin to act recklessly. Guanglin Mansion had almost changed its surname to Li before. There are many victims like them.
Gu Mingda not only vindicated her, but also said: "I will find a way to let the official return your family's property to you, and you don't have to work so hard to make a living in the capital in the future."
Wang He immediately said: "Sir, I am willing to give all the property of the family to thank you for your help."
Zhang Yunniang on the side sighed and said: "We help you not for your family's property, but because we feel sorry for you, a little girl, who is young and carries a blood feud and runs to the capital to make a living. We are not short of money, you don't need to mention this matter again."
Wang He heard this and lowered her head to wipe away tears. Since her family was broken up, she didn't know how much cold treatment and torture she had suffered. This only warmth was actually felt from Gu Mingda and Zhang Yunniang.
Zhang Yunniang continued, "There may still be someone alive in your maternal grandparents' family. My family's braised food recipe was exchanged from an old beggar in Guanglin Mansion. The old beggar said that it was given to him by a young beggar."
When Wang He heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.
When she left Gu Mingda's study, she saw Niuniu holding hands with Xie Xingchuan outside the door and talking.
"Niuniu, you look much better today." Wang He said happily.
Although Niuniu woke up earlier, her face was still pale. It was obvious that using special abilities twice in a row still hurt her.
Niuniu's face was rosy at this time. She raised her head and smiled and said, "I don't know why, it's like I suddenly have a lot of strength. Brother Xie said that my strength has increased!"
Wang He looked at Xie Xingchuan on the side. She had seen this young man before and knew that he was the godson of the Gu family. He was very good at martial arts at a young age.
Instead, Xie Xingchuan took the initiative to ask: "I heard that your family has a long fist that has been passed down from generation to generation. Can you show me a few?"
Niuniu's eyes lit up immediately and said: "Brother, my sister is very powerful. Maybe you can't beat her."
Xie Xingchuan raised his eyebrows and said: "You are a girl? Forget it, I don't bully girls."
Xie Xingchuan shook his head like a rattle.
Wang He had solved the big problem in his heart, and he recovered some of his youthful heart. He immediately said: "What's wrong with girls? Can't girls fight? Do I have one less hand or one less foot than you? I won't lose to you!"
Xie Xingchuan heard her say this, touched the back of his head, and said: "Okay, since you like to be beaten so much, don't cry when the time comes."
Niuniu looked at Wang He, then at Xie Xingchuan, and suddenly laughed with her hands covering her mouth.
"Niuniu, what are you laughing at?" Wang He couldn't help asking.
Niuniu's eyes sparkled, and she said, "Brother likes sister very much. When meeting others, brother doesn't like to talk so much, he always pretends to be dumb."
Xie Xingchuan immediately retorted, "Who likes her? I'm just afraid that she will cry."
Wang He gently patted Niuniu's head and said, "Niuniu, talking a lot doesn't mean love."
Xie Xingchuan looked at Wang He's expressionless face, and couldn't help but look at her more, thinking that she was not as shy as an ordinary little girl.
The two stood in the yard, and Xie Xingchuan did not take a spear, but responded with the long fist in the army.
There was almost no need for any words, and there was no so-called humility. After looking at each other, they immediately started fighting.
The movement in the yard attracted the attention of the couple in the study.
"Husband, who do you think will win?" Zhang Yunniang asked with a smile.
Now that all the enemies of the Gu family hiding in the dark have been killed, Zhang Yunniang feels that there will never be a smoother day than now.
Gu Mingda said: "Wang He's boxing skills are better in agility, but compared to strength, most of them are not as good as Xingchuan."
"So my husband is optimistic about Xingchuan?" Zhang Yunniang asked.
Gu Mingda shook his head and said: "I am optimistic about Wang He, because you are not optimistic about her, so I have to do the opposite."
The winner in the yard has not been decided, but the interrogation in the palace has come to an end.
The queen mother did not show mercy to Li, and directly sent her to the Ministry of Punishment. Almost all the punishments were repeated. Li no longer dared to say that she was a favorite concubine. She screamed at this time: "I say, I am willing to say anything! I will tell her whatever the queen mother wants to know!"
