Chapter 224 It's not too much to die 10,000 times
Empress Jianye knew that Guangxi was hostile to Huaijing. Huaijing killed her husband, so she naturally would not hope that Huaijing would be good. Huaijing would be better off committing suicide directly and apologizing for death. It would be over.
The mother-in-law and Queen Jianye’s mother-in-law’s purpose today is not the same. There will inevitably be friction and collision in a while, and you will know later.
After the Empress Dowager and the Queen arrived, all the princes also arrived.
As mentioned in the previous article, the late emperor had twenty princes. The seventh and the oldest elder died young, the eldest elder Emperor Jianye had died, and the second elder Huaijing was the target of life and death by everyone today. The seventeenth and eighteenth, nineteenth and twenty, these four princes were still young children and were not sensible.
Therefore, there were only twelve princes who actually attended, plus three emperor uncles, Empress Dowager, Empress Jianye, and Princess Qingjia.
Among the brothers of the same generation as Ye Lin, there are eight princesses who have become married. Ye Lin is the one who has just gotten married recently.
During the previous incident of the hunter, the elves asked for marriage, but Lao Jiu was not married yet. However, Princess Murphy did not like him. Soon afterwards, he married a legitimate daughter of a prominent family.
The seventh son died early, and the biological mother of the Ba Ning Wang was not from a high birth, so she never had a marriage. Therefore, there were eight princesses on the field.
When everyone was here, the clan meeting naturally began.
King Ning was about to get up and speak, but was swept away by the empress dowager's majestic look and suppressed it directly.
The Empress Dowager almost forced herself to show her only courage.
It’s no wonder that King Ning suddenly became scared. He had no power, no power, no support, and the Queen Mother took charge of the harem and managed all the costs of the harem. His fear of the Queen Mother was something he had since childhood.
Other princes could still look at her with their mother's height because of their height. As for King Ning, in the eyes of the Empress Dowager, she was as lowly as a grass. She was just a bad slave who climbed onto the bed of the late emperor and was born to the evil seed.
Just as King Ning was scared, the Empress Dowager coughed and said, "Everyone, if you have any suggestions about King Zhao, please speak freely."
The Empress Dowager deliberately shocked King Ning to seize the dominance from him.
After all, she had accumulated power for a long time. After thirty years of reign, she had been in charge of the harem for thirty years.
When the Empress Dowager asked this, the juniors did not speak, as if they were waiting for the elders to express their opinions. No one here was stupid. He knew that the Empress Dowager wanted to protect Huaijing, and most of the people on the field wanted Huaijing to die.
This is what Huai Jing deserves. He has created too many enemies, and no one is willing to help him at this moment, and he will die for a lifetime.
Of course, the younger generations dare not take the lead, but it does not mean that the elders dare not. The eldest princess of Qingjia is an exception.
The late emperor was her younger brother, and they had a good relationship since childhood. In terms of seniority, Princess Qingjia is also the sister-in-law of the empress dowager. What others dare not say, Princess Qingjia dares to say.
"From my opinion, King Zhao committed a heinous crime and should be executed!" Princess Qingjia took the lead in expressing her opinion.
The queen mother glanced at Princess Qingjia and asked back, "Oh? Is that true? The eldest princess really thinks this way?"
Princess Qingjia was not afraid at all and replied: "Of course! King Zhao killed his father and brother, but King Zhao's father and brother are all the monarchs of my Feng Yi. King Zhao was cruel and ruthless, and he should be executed if he killed the king and seized the throne!"
The Empress Dowager lowered her face and said, "Although King Zhao committed a death sentence, he was the only legitimate son of the late emperor after all, and his bloodline was connected. According to my own view, it would be better to demote him to a commoner as a punishment."
"This is not true! The prince committed the same crime as the common people. What's more, King Zhao committed a serious crime that was not an exaggeration to die ten thousand times. If it weren't for the fact that he was a royal family, he would have implicated the nine tribes!" The eldest princess shouted fiercely.
When the four words "involved by the Nine Clans", many people present changed their expressions. Everyone in the field is within the Nine Clans, and their relationship is close.
King Ning frowned and glanced at the eldest princess. The eldest princess said this, but it was easy for him to offend others.
How could the Empress Dowager be willing to be suppressed by Princess Qingjia like this? She was so angry that she distorted her face. With her old face, she looked like an old witch.
"You can't say that! I have asked King Zhao, and he was ordered by others to do this. The matter has not been clarified yet, and the envoy behind the scenes does not know who it is, so how can he execute King Zhao at will?!"
Princess Qingjia was disbelief and smiled contemptuously: "My brother and sister, don't escape the crime for King Zhao. It is natural to kill someone. Even if he was ordered by someone, he would admit it himself, and he would not be able to escape death if he was killed."
The Empress Dowager gritted her teeth, "If King Zhao is instructed, wouldn't he let the culprit go unpunished if he doesn't find out? It would be better to ask King Zhao to assist in the investigation and give him a chance to make up for his crimes, and find out this hateful culprit, so that everyone can rest assured."
No one answered the Queen Mother's words, which made the Queen Mother very embarrassed.
The Empress Dowager was not up or down and suddenly turned blue. She looked at Princess Zhao and shouted fiercely, "Second wife! You and King Zhao are husband and wife, and you know him the most. Tell everyone, is there any stranger approaching him recently?!"
