Chapter 94 Punishment

If Ye Wan was here, he would definitely find that Chu Hui was spitting out the cold words that could freeze to death without expression on his face, which was inherited from Yuan Zhen.

His lips were obviously smiling, but he felt as cold as death.

Sima You shook violently. Although he didn't know what Yuan Zhen meant, whether he wanted to warn himself not to go too far or something else, he obediently wiped the "sweat" that did not appear on his forehead with his hands, and gasped and said lightly: "Your Highness Lie said, don't bother the imperial doctor anymore. Weichen is... Weichen is an old problem of palpitations." He secretly hated in his heart, and really didn't know what attitude he should use to face Lie.

He was afraid that King Lie would say something terrifying or something horrifying. He clamped his butt and stood there in a state of magnanimity.

Everyone realized that what Sima called "can't breath" and "precursors of stroke" just now were all acting, and they couldn't help but return to their standing positions, without hiding the teasing of watching the excitement in their eyes.

However, what disappointed everyone was that His Highness King Lie did not react any other way. Instead, he stood leisurely with his hands in his arms, waiting for the next words of Emperor Xi Qin. His calm expression... made everyone feel erratic. The second prince Yuan must not be His Highness King Lie's biological son!

While they were thinking about the unrealistic ideas such as "the cat changed to the prince", "In fact, the eldest son Yuan Jin is the eldest son, and Yuan Yu is the concubine gave birth to a son", the Emperor of Western Qin finally couldn't help but sigh and said, "Sima Aiqing is a little at ease. Gu knew that you lost your beloved daughter. Gu was also a father, so he knew that you were lonely and helpless at the moment. However, the country has national laws and family rules. You can't just divide your life and death just because of your Sima Aiqing's own opinion. This is not very fair to Major General Yuan. Do you think so? Don't worry, Gu will not be able to distinguish right from wrong, and he will be favored by one and the other. He will definitely give you a satisfactory reply."

Sima You, a man in his fifties, nodded in tears. How satisfied can the answer Emperor Xi Qin said was? Who in the entire Western Qin knows that Emperor Xi Qin cannot make the decision, and he must have the number of promises that King Lie personally agreed?

At the warning of Emperor Xi Qin, the Inner Prison soon passed Yuan Yu in the Heavenly Prison and Yuan Jiong who was staying in the Prince Lie Mansion to the court.

Yuan Yu was wearing a gray and white prison uniform at this time. Although he was very different from his usual heroic and handsome appearance, he was not very embarrassed. After all, not everyone had the courage to attack the second son of Prince Lie's mansion in prison.

Yuan Jiong's expression was quite inexplicable. He was not as employed as a military general like Yuan Yu. Since his wrist was crippled, he has been at home peacefully. Even if he sometimes helps King Lie to do something, he is only a civilian, neither a prince nor a civil servant. He shook the folding fan and looked at the people in the hall for no reason.

No one knew what the Emperor of Western Qin summoned Yuan Jiong for. Even if Sima Qin had an affair with the prince of the King of Qi, the third prince of Yuan was just implicated and suffered a disaster. It really had nothing to do with these things.

"See Your Majesty." Yuan Yu and Yuan Jiong both came to the hall and kowtowed.

Yuan Yu glanced at Yuan Jiong from top to bottom with resentment. Compared with his Yuelang and Fengqing look, his appearance in prison uniform was really ugly. This attitude made him feel embarrassed when he fell into Yuan Jiong's eyes.

Yuan Jiong ignored Yuan Yu's gaze lightly, and the folding fan in his hand was only retracted when he paid homage to Emperor Xi Qin, and then unfolded again. He even slapped twice with a look of no one. A breeze with ink fragrance pounced towards Yuan Yu. Only Yuan Yu knew that this was Yuan Jiong's provocation.

He was even more angry, and he couldn't help but clench his fists tightly, trying hard to convince himself that this was in the hall and that he would not be as knowledgeable as the villain around him.

When the Emperor of Western Qin saw the two brothers arrive, he thought for a while and said, "Yuan Yu, you have committed a great disaster today. Are you guilty of your crime?"

"Yuan Yu knows the crime." Yuan Yu lowered his head and concealed the disdain on his face. It was just killing a bitch. It seemed like an unforgivable sin in the eyes of these people. Yuan Yu killed him and killed him. Except for some regrets that he did not kill him on the spot while she was still in the woods. As a result, he was in prison because of a moment of excitement. Yuan Yu did not feel that he might be in trouble.

He admitted his mistakes very quickly and had a good attitude, which immediately made Emperor Xi Qin breathe a sigh of relief.

What Emperor Xi Qin was most afraid of was that he was attacked from multiple sides. He was already dealing with this matter under the pressure of King Lie, and Sima You was eyeing him on the other hand. If Yuan Yu had no better attitude and admitted his mistakes, he might have gone directly to the scene.

He nodded and looked at Yuanzhen for his opinion: "What do you think of King Lie? Is there any problem with Gu's judgment?" An emperor asked his younger brother what his judgment was, which was also a big strange thing in the world.

"Your Majesty has his own judgment, so there is no need to ask me. Whether Yuan Yu is a crime or not, I will follow His Majesty's instructions." Yuan Zhen's voice was low and mellow, as if he was born with a kingly aura. Even if he answered the words of Emperor Xi Qin indifferently like now, it did not make people feel that he was at a disadvantage.

Yuan Yu's face looked extremely ugly when he lowered his head. His father was so willing to care about his affairs. Even if it was not an important matter, Yuan Yu felt very uncomfortable. He lowered his head, and only Yuan Jiong beside him could see his expression.

Yuan Jiong couldn't help but chuckled and whispered: "What, is the second brother still counting on his father to run around for your business and ask for more care?"

"With the power of the father, why do you have to run around?" Yuan Yu almost squeezed out these words from his teeth. Who is King Lie? As long as he stands in this court, almost everyone will dare to act according to his expression. How can he specifically command others?

Yuan Jiong shook his head with a tsk voice: "Second brother is not content enough. He has to think about everything in a good direction to be content and always be happy, do you know?"

"You don't need to teach me!" Yuan Yu gritted his teeth.

The two brothers were talking quietly, and everyone in the hall looked different. I wonder whether the meaning expressed by His Highness Lie was true or false. He could take it seriously and deal with Yuan Yu at will? Or was he very confident in his heart, and felt that Emperor Xi Qin did not dare to treat Yuan Yu at all?

The palace was quiet for a moment, and everyone looked at the Western Qin Emperor with a gaze, guessing in their hearts what the Western Qin Emperor would do.

This is not only a trivial matter to determine whether Yuan Yu is guilty, but also a silent temptation between Yuanshu and Yuanzhen brothers.

Emperor Xi Qin hesitated for a moment and slowly said to everyone: "I believe that the evidence of Yuan Yu's killing Sima Qing is conclusive and it is true. According to the Western Qin laws, it is worthy of punishment for death. However, when Gu Nian Yuan's young general fought and made great contributions to Western Qin, he really couldn't bear to convict him of death. Moreover, this incident was caused by the affair between Sima Qing and Prince Xiao. Although Yuan Jiong was innocent, he could not escape his responsibility. Therefore, I repeatedly considered it and wanted to punish Yuan Yu and Yuan Jiong to comfort the pain of Sima's loss of his daughter. Do you think it's like any?"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone was shocked. The eyes of Emperor Xi Qin were surprised and different.

Everyone had all kinds of guesses, but most of them felt that Emperor Xi Qin would not punish Yuan Yu severely. After all, King Lie was here. Even if he didn't care about his son, it would be impossible to push Yuan Yu out in front of others, right?

Furthermore, the words of Emperor Xi Qin also choked a group of the lieutenant members of the Lie Prince's Mansion who were ready to speak for Yuan Yu. Even Emperor Xi Qin said that he had given a lighter punishment for Yuan Yu's years of military achievements, so how could they have room for them to speak?

Everyone looked at each other. When did the Western Qin Emperor become so powerful? Such a difficult thing can be resolved quietly by him, and even choking to death to death without paying his life?

Yuan Zhen's eyes were not different when he looked at Emperor Xi Qin, but he still looked calm with his eyebrows raised and let me sing or dance.

"What Your Majesty said is to punish the same thing...what does it mean?" Someone asked carefully. They were not so polite to the Western Qin Emperor, but what he said today really surprised everyone.

Could it be that Emperor Xi Qin had secretly found some helpers to teach him?

Yuan Jiong smiled bitterly, and finally knew what he called him today. Others might not be able to see it, but his father must have guessed that he and Yuan Yu were trapped. The other party's purpose was to come from the beginning to him and Yuan Yu, intending to provoke their relationship.

Apart from Xiao Feng and Sima Qing's affairs, it may cause some conflict between Yuan Yu and Yuan Jiong, but it is not absolute. After all, Xiao Feng and Yuan Jiong are completely incompatible except for the little friendship. No matter how Yuan Yu blames him, he will not be able to feel more resentment.

But Sima You is different. The other party took advantage of Yuan Yu's temperament and expected that he would do something to Sima Qing when he saw Sima Qing coming out of the wall. This would mean that Sima You's relationship was forced to be pushed out. At the same time, the Emperor of Western Qin did not dare to punish Yuan Yu severely for this difficult thing, nor did he dare to pretend that he had never had anything to do. Then it would be the best choice to ask him to take the blame together.

But Yuan Yu's head... not only wouldn't be grateful because Yuan Jiong was punished with him, but would feel like a explosive bag that felt humiliated and Yuan Jiong's kindness. Everything was planned by Yuan Jiong to take advantage of him. Because this matter was completely unrelated to Chu Hui, ordinary people would definitely think that Chu Hui, the cleanest picker, was the mastermind behind the scenes.

So for a person like Yuan Yu who likes to be smart, he is blatantly framed. He will believe that Yuan Jiong wants him to hold a grudge against Chu Hui and act like this, so he will turn around or throw his eyes back to Yuan Jiong.

This is a game in the middle of the game, and the person who planned this matter is really meticulous.

The moment Emperor Xi Qin said, Yuan Jiong's fan froze in the air, and it took him a long time to shake it as if he was able to react.

He could come up with such a thing, except his cheap brother and the cunning little fox. His cheap brother became the one who took the blame in this game... Yuan Jiong sighed and glanced at Yuan Yu.

At this time, he hoped that his second brother would not be so stupid and could think about it a little.

The Emperor of Western Qin said: "Together punishment means sharing the burden. Yu'er and Jiong'er, since you two are brothers, you should share the joys and sorrows and hardships. I don't want to investigate this matter deeply, but I must not be punished, otherwise it will be difficult to convince the public. Today, I will remove myself from the position of Yuan Yu, your major general, and return the military power to other generals under the command of King Lie. You should reflect on your mistakes in the palace of King Lie. Yuan Jiong, you will assist your second brother to eliminate disasters with money and compensate Lord Sima 100,000 taels of silver. Do you have any objections?"

The hall was quiet for a moment, and no one expected that the Western Qin Emperor would make such arrangements in the end. It was a scene that was even more dramatic than drama.

Yuan Yu didn't expect that the military power he had firmly grasped would be removed by the Western Qin Emperor. He was anxious to jump up and object, but Yuan Jiong covered his mouth.

"Thank you, your Majesty, my second brother and I have no meaning for this." Yuan Jiong said calmly, and turned to Sima You, who was not sure whether it was sad or happy, and said, "Money is something outside of your body. It is Yuan Jiong's blessing to be able to compensate Sima for losing his daughter. I hope Sima will not dislike it."
