The Minister of Punishment looked at the man and the old lady in embarrassment.
"Mr. Zhao, please be careful. My mother-in-law is here. You... are not too cautious in what you say?"
Mr. Zhao immediately said: "I don't know why this old lady said that this person is Xiao Jiyuan, but I can swear to God with my life that this person is definitely not Xiao Jiyuan, and he can't be someone Xu Guogong found to impersonate him."
."
As he said this, Mr. Zhao sneered.
"Except for the fact that this man's facial features are somewhat similar to General Xiao's, he has no other similarities. If the Duke of Guo really wants to find someone to impersonate him, he should at least adjust his temperament.
Furthermore, if the Duke of Guo really wanted to find someone to impersonate General Xiao, how could he let General Xiao live with another woman? Who in Kyoto didn't know that General Xiao was deeply in love with His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess during his lifetime.
It has been five years since General Xiao died in battle. Now, a man suddenly appears and says he is Xiao Jiyuan, but he lives here. He meets Xiao Yunqian in private but does not go to meet Her Royal Highness Princess Chang and the King of Nanhuai. Isn't this too strange?
Yet?
In my opinion, this man has a terrible intention. Someone behind the scenes must have instigated him to do this. He wanted to kill two birds with one stone, harming both Duke Xu and the eldest princess.
Master Shangshu must investigate strictly!"
Mr. Zhao's words removed Xu Guogong from theory.
The man looked at Mr. Zhao in disbelief, and then roared angrily, "It was Duke Xu who found me, and it was Duke Xu who asked me to pretend to be Xiao Jiyuan!"
"You must provide evidence when you speak." Mr. Zhao looked at him coldly, "You said it was arranged by Xu Guogong, do you have any evidence?"
The man immediately pointed at Xiao Yunqian, "She has an autograph letter in her hand."
Xiao Yunqian said: "Don't you even know whether Mr. Xu Guogong wrote you a handwritten letter? I just said this deliberately to force you to tell the truth. There is no handwritten letter."
Xiao Yunqian unfolded the piece of paper he took out in front of everyone.
It's a blank piece of paper.
There is not a single word on it.
"You!" The man looked at Xiao Yunqian angrily.
Mr. Zhao frowned.
Ah~
Too careless~
If I had known earlier, he shouldn't have come out~
But now that the matter has come to this, he can only say to Xiao Yunqian: "Miss Xiao is very resourceful. Fortunately, our Mr. Xu Guogong behaves upright, otherwise, he would have been harmed by this despicable villain."
The man clenched his fist and pounded the ground, "I was arranged by Mr. Xu Guogong. Otherwise, why would I pretend to be Xiao Jiyuan?"
The Minister of Punishment sealed his coffin and concluded.
"That's because someone colluded with you, and the person who colluded with you..." Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment turned to look at the old lady who was slumped on the ground, "It is Xiao Jiyuan's biological mother, because she wanted to embezzle the elders.
The family fortune of the Princess Mansion found you, a counterfeit, to impersonate Xiao Jiyuan, which is exactly what they want to be punished for!"
"I'm not, I don't, he is not my son, my son has already died in the battlefield, he is not my son, I... I just admitted my mistake in confusion.
I am the biological grandmother of King Nanhuai, you cannot accuse me."
In the crowd, someone immediately said: "I saw this old woman bringing Princess Nanhuai here today, but I don't know what she said when she entered the house later. Princess Nanhuai left first with an angry look on her face. Princess Nanhuai left a long time ago
It took a quarter of an hour for the old woman to leave."
Just as this person finished speaking, Chun Xing walked out of the crowd.
Chun Xing was shocked.
"So this person is not the prince-consort at all? Then what is your intention in bringing my princess here today and forcing my princess to bring this person into the eldest princess' mansion?
Fortunately, my princess felt uncomfortable in her stomach at the time and left first for fear of having fetal gas.
Otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous."
After saying this, Chun Xing bowed to the Minister of Punishment.
"Hello, sir, I am Chun Xing, the maid of Princess Nanhuai. I heard in the palace that the old lady was taken away by the Ministry of Punishment. The princess was worried and asked the slave to come over and see what was going on.
It's just that the slave didn't expect that the slave would hear such a thing when he came over.
Last night, Xiao Yunqian went to the princess and told her that the prince-in-law was still alive. However, because Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess was injured, it was inconvenient to meet directly. He wanted to ask the princess to arrange for the prince-in-law to enter the house.
This morning, the old lady and Xiao Yunqian brought our princess here together, and asked our princess to arrange for this person to enter the house.
As a result, both the old lady and Xiao Yunqian know that this person is fake. I hope you will investigate carefully as to whether this is his intention."
"I am just a maid serving in front of the old lady. How can I, a maid, control what the master wants to do? She said this person is Xiao Jiyuan, but I can only identify this person as Xiao Jiyuan.
My intentions are evil, I am greedy for the glory and wealth of the eldest princess's palace, I just made the same mistakes that other women would make, what's wrong with me?"
Xiao Yunqian stood there with disheveled hair, raising his hand and pointing directly at the old lady.
"The real culprit is her! She was disgusted by the eldest princess because she repeatedly harmed the eldest princess and Princess Nanhuai. She was afraid of losing the glory and wealth of the eldest princess's palace, so she wanted to accept him as her son even though she knew that this man was a fake.
And he, he told me that as long as I got pregnant before entering the mansion, he could justifiably take me into the mansion, and then look for opportunities to poison the eldest princess and the King of Nanhuai. From now on, the glory and wealth of the eldest princess's mansion would be
It's all ours.
What did I do wrong? My fault was my naivety!"
Being exposed by Xiao Yunqian in such a hoarse voice, the old lady couldn't bear it on her face, and she couldn't hold it in her heart. She just felt like the world was spinning.
When the man saw Xiao Yunqian correcting him, and people from Duke Xu's palace actually wanted to find out the relationship, he immediately said: "I'm not wrong. It was Duke Xu who found me. He is the Duke of the state. Can I afford to offend him? I was the one who was
Damn it, I originally had a wife, children and a family, but it was Duke Xu who killed my wife and children and forced me to pretend to be Xiao Jiyuan.
Do I dare to disobey?
If you want to arrest him, go and arrest Mr. Xu. What are you doing to arrest me, a common man? I am also a victim.
Also, I was initially resistant, but it was this old lady, Xiao Jiyuan’s biological mother, who told me that as long as she recognized that I was Xiao Jiyuan, I must be, and no one could say that I wasn’t.
I'm the victim.
The bad guys are Duke Xu and Xiao Jiyuan’s mother!"
Mr. Zhao immediately kicked him, "You are talking nonsense. The Duke of the State doesn't even know who you are. Stop slandering the Duke of the State here!"
The Minister of Punishment looked at Mr. Zhao solemnly, "It's not that I don't want to give you face, it's actually a matter of great importance and it is no longer something that our Punishment Department can handle. You should go back and talk to the Duke. Our Punishment Department needs to act according to the rules.
!”
After saying that, the Minister of Punishment raised his hand and waved, "Come here, take this man, Xiao Yunqian and the old lady away for me. I will put them in the prison of the Punishment Department for serious offenders. No visits are allowed. They will be under strict supervision. I will enter the palace immediately."
