Drunk House Chapter 394

Chapter 394 Closing the Case (Second Update)

In the morning court on the second day, as Yan Huisheng said, the first thing the emperor did when he came to the court was to close the case against the precious concubine in the court hall.

The case of precious concubine involves a lot of people involved in the case, including the first prince Yan Li, the first prince concubine Ning Yao, and the concubines De, Xian and Li in the palace.

King Rui'an, who presided over the case, listed countless crimes of all people, big and small, and read them out at the court.

The emperor issued an imperial decree that the precious concubine was originally a capital offense, but considering that she was pregnant with an imperial heir, she was punished by deposing the title of noble concubine and demoting her to be a beauty. The eldest prince Yan Li was removed from the royal family and demoted to a commoner. The eldest princess concubine Ning Yao was removed from the jade certificate and also demoted to a commoner. Virtuous concubine has no way to teach her son, and she is thrown into the cold palace. The virtuous concubine is demoted to the position of concubine. Although concubine Li is wronged, but because her mother's family is involved in the case, and because she has provided evidence, she maintains her status.

It took a full hour to list the persons involved in the case, as well as the crimes and the punishment results. From the palace to the court, from the prince to the courtiers, there are hundreds of officials involved in the case.

The second prince Yan Lin could hear clearly in the early court, when he heard that the emperor demoted the eldest prince Yan Li to a commoner, his face changed a few times.

He really didn't expect that Yan Li would be punished so severely, without giving Yan Li any chance to argue.

Moreover, the announcement of the crimes involved in the case of Yan Li shocked him, because several cases were old cases a few years ago. He didn't expect to be turned over.

He looked at Yan Huisheng and saw that Yan Huisheng was standing at the top, motionless, his face was as calm as ever, and he could not see the emotions in his heart.

Aware of Yan Lin's gaze, Yan Huisheng turned his head and looked at Yan Lin.

At this moment, Yan Lin looked at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose, and he didn't even dare to look at Yan Huisheng. But he was thinking in his heart, Yan Li's old case had been turned up, so what about the things he did behind his back? Is it possible that if you find an opportunity, you will also be dug out?

In these years, countless people felt that the prince was benevolent and deceitful, but he clearly knew that Yan Huisheng could only bear it.

Now he finally couldn't bear it anymore, but he didn't show his sharpness, but he didn't show his strength, and he didn't even take the lead. Instead, Su Rong upset the court situation, and King Rui'an brought down Yan Li.

Yan Lin hated secretly, thinking that Ning Yao was stupid, if she hadn't sent someone to kill Xie Lin, King Rui'an would not have been furious, and with such cooperation, he had no scruples to investigate the capital inside and outside the palace. Not only did Yan Li have no power to fight back, but Donggong was happy to make King Rui'an go to war.

Now that Yan Li is out of the game, Yan Shen has joined Yan Echo again, and he is the only one left.

Yan Lin was a little flustered, but he also felt that he might not be hopeless because he had the Pingxi General's Mansion in northern Hebei holding a heavy army.

After the morning court, the news spread and the capital shook.

In the prince's mansion, Yan Li shouted to see the emperor, but the father-in-law who served in front of the imperial court came to pass on the emperor's words, and only said one sentence, "Your Majesty said, if your majesty makes trouble, you will die."

Yan Li suddenly fell to the ground, and murmured: "Is the father not caring about the relationship between father and son at all? Is this the end of the son who has been filial to the father for so many years?"

The father-in-law who served in front of the imperial court straightened his back, "Your Highness, His Majesty demoted you to a commoner just because he cared about the relationship between father and son. Otherwise, your Majesty said that the crimes you committed are enough for you to die 10,000 times."

After he finished speaking, he threw a pile of criminal evidence about Yan Li and Ning Yao in front of him, turned and left.

Yan Li looked at the criminal evidence in front of him with a pale face, and cried bitterly for a long time.

He originally thought that abandoning Ning Yao and the child in her womb would be enough for him to protect himself, and he would be able to join forces with Yan Lin and compete with Yan Huisheng. Only by removing him completely can he free up his hands to deal with Yan Lin.

In the dungeon of Prince Ruian's Mansion, the prison door opened, Xie Lin said to the inside: "Ning Yao, come out! Your Majesty has a decree. From today on, you and the emperor's heir in your belly will be demoted to common people."

Ning Yao suspected that she had heard it wrong. She thought that she was already a capital offender, even if she had the child in her womb as a life-saving talisman. In the face of the big case, the evidence was conclusive and hopeless. But unexpectedly, the emperor could spare her life.

No, it was Prince Yan Hui echo who spared her life.

She was stunned for a moment, then asked Xie Lin, "Where's my brother?"

"Expelled from Beijing, not allowed to participate in scientific examinations, not allowed to be an official." Xie Lin said.

Ning Yao breathed a sigh of relief, and felt that their siblings were able to escape from death, and now they were able to live, so they were quite content.

She walked out of the dark prison slowly, and saw the sky light for a while, she couldn't bear it for a while, she immediately covered her eyes, and after a while, she asked Xie Lin again, "Where is Your Highness?"

"Yan Li is no longer His Royal Highness, and has been demoted to a commoner." Xie Lin said.

Ning Yao nodded slowly, and asked Xie Lin: "Can I go?"

Xie Lin nodded, "Slow down, don't send me off!"

Ning Yao walked out of the Ruian Palace, she stood at the door, waited for a while, and sure enough, she saw Ning Ze coming out of the Rui'an Palace with a pale face, Ning Ze was almost out of shape, when he saw Ning Yao, he hugged him and burst into tears, "Sister!"

Ning Yao reached out and patted him on the back, and said softly: "It's okay, at least we are still alive."

Ning Ze nodded, yes, he is still alive, once he thought he was going to die here.

After Ning Ze calmed down for a while, Ning Yao said: "Let's go, let's go home."

"Go home?" Ning Ze wiped his eyes.

"Yes, go back to Nanping, our home." Ning Yao said.

Ning Ze nodded, "Yes, let's go home, go home."

Even if he is not expelled, he doesn't want to stay in the capital anymore, and he will never come again.

He and Ning Yao walked out of Ruian Palace, and after walking a few steps, they suddenly asked Ning Yao belatedly, "Sister, where is brother-in-law?"

Ning Yao's face changed for a while, and then he said: "I will send him the He Li book. From now on, he has nothing to do with me."

Ning Ze looked at her, "I just heard that my brother-in-law has also been demoted to a commoner, so he..."

"From now on, whether he lives or dies has nothing to do with me." Ning Yao cut off Ning Ze's words, "I'm afraid he will be added to those who wish for my death. Don't call me brother-in-law anymore."

She didn't forget that she confessed all the evidence that the eldest prince was involved in the case. When she confessed, she thought of this day. She abandoned Yan Li in order to save her younger brother, no, if possible, Yan Li would also abandon her in the same way.

Each other each other only.

She doesn't feel that she owes Yan Li.

Ning Ze shut his mouth, nodded, and urged Ning Yao, "Sister, let's hurry up, I want to go home."

Monthly ticket plus fuel, okay?
