A concubine enters the mansion? Reborn, three matchmakers and six engagements to marry the Prime Min

Li Yunzhou listened with his eyes narrowed, the coldness in his eyes not concealed at all.

In fact, he knew all that Li Yunhuai said. He had deliberately rescued the bandit leader, and it took a lot of trouble. As for the lieutenant general Liu Dahai, he had specially arrested him in the Northern Frontier Army.

The confessions of these two people were enough to take Li Yunhuai's life.

Shen Zhixiu's interrogation was just right and he did not put the blame on Princess Yongjia.

Today they want to move Li Yunhuai, if they really involve Princess Yongjia, it will only make things more complicated. It is better to make a prompt decision and stop while the going is good.

After they had been thoroughly interrogated, Shen Zhixiu solemnly instructed Wen Zhu, "Let them sign and seal their names."

Li Chaoyun didn't care about anything else and quickly spoke up to stop him, "Lord Shen, this is a confession forced under torture, it doesn't count."

"I'm going to ask my uncle, the emperor, that even if there is a sentence, it should be tried by three judges."

Shen Zhixiu didn't even look at Li Chaoyun, and said in a cold voice: "The princess has no right to speak on matters of the court."

Wen Zhu naturally would not pay attention to what Li Chaoyun said, and had already taken the confession to Li Yunhuai to sign.

Just as the handprint was about to be pressed, a loud shout suddenly came from outside the crowd, "Stop, who allowed you to interrogate here?"

Princess Yongjia and Prince Shan Li Jingchuan came closer with gloomy faces, but it was too late, Li Yunhuai's handprint had already been placed.

Li Chaoyun walked up to the two of them and told them the important things that had just happened.

Seeing the two coming, Li Yunhuai seemed to have found a backbone, "Mother, save me."

Princess Yongjia was furious and was about to attack Li Yunzhou when she saw Li Yunzhou walk up to the two of them, then threw away his robe and knelt on his knees.

"Greetings to my father, my king, and my mother. I have lived up to everyone's expectations and have returned to the capital safely."

Princess Yongjia was a little at a loss for a moment. On one side was her biological son asking for help, and on the other side was her adopted son who had come back to life and was bowing respectfully.

The anger she wanted to vent towards Li Yunzhou was stuck here.

If it weren't for Li Yunhuai's incident, she would probably have been hugging Li Yunzhou and crying bitterly by now.

But at this moment, Princess Yongjia only wanted to protect her only remaining son, so she thought for a moment and said in a deep voice: "Yunzhou, you stand up first. I heard about your third brother's matter. Let's go back to the mansion first, and mother will make the decision for you."

He then raised his voice and ordered the people around him, "The Third Young Master is injured, take him back to the mansion for treatment first."

Princess Yongjia turned this matter into a family matter in just two sentences. As long as it was a family matter, it would be easy to solve later. At worst, she could cry, make a scene, or even hang herself to beg the emperor for mercy.

Li Yunzhou stood up and stepped aside, standing with his hands hanging down without saying anything. He was just like a bastard who was suppressed by his stepmother and dared not speak out.

Everyone present heard clearly what Li Yunhuai did. They all thought that he deserved to die, but Princess Yongjia's obvious partiality also made everyone think of something.

No matter how much Princess Yongjia said she treated her stepson as her own son, he was not her own son after all.

If Princess Yongning were still alive, would she allow her son to be bullied?

This thought flashed through the minds of many people, but they were reluctant to say it out loud.

After receiving the order, Princess Yongjia's people were about to take Li Yunhuai away, but were stopped by Wenzhu.

Shen Zhixiu said coldly: "Princess, please forgive me. Minister Yang and I are already investigating this case. It is no longer a family matter."

Zhang Pan at the side also said in a cold tone: "Family affairs? I was shot in the back by someone and almost died. Fortunately, I survived and lost an arm."

"Now Princess Shanjun says it's a family matter, I won't agree to it."

"General Li is a bastard of the Li family, so he naturally dares not disobey the princess. But the Li family must give me an explanation for this matter."

Zhang Pan is not afraid of confronting the Li family. He and his grandmother are the only ones left in the Xuanwu Marquis Mansion. He, who is barefoot, is not afraid of those who wear shoes.

There are some things that Li Yunzhou is not good at saying, so it is just right for him to say them.

Princess Yongjia looked at Zhang Pan with gnashing teeth, "Isn't Marquis Xuanwu still alive? Do you still want my son to pay with his life?"

Zhang Pan raised his lips with a wicked smile, "I am not dead because I was saved by General Li. This is a favor I owe to General Li, but it is not a reason for me to spare Li Yunhuai."

"Master Shen, in your opinion, is the evidence of Li Yunhuai's guilt irrefutable?"

Shen Zhixiu nodded. Li Yunhuai had admitted it himself and said in Qianyang Palace that this was solid evidence.

Zhang Pan nodded with satisfaction. "Then please ask Lord Shen to report to the emperor. I will also draft a memorial. Please ask the emperor to make a decision for the soldiers who died in the battle and don't disappoint the loyal ministers and generals."

"I will stay outside the city today. When Li Yunhuai is beheaded, I will enter the city."

Princess Yongjia pointed at Zhang Pan and shouted angrily, "Marquis Xuanwu, you are threatening the emperor."

Zhang Pan shook his head. "I dare not. I only know that the Zhang family is full of loyal and brave people who died to protect the Great Zhou. I have no complaints, and the Zhang family has no complaints either."

"But if I am the only one who died in a conspiracy, then I will not be able to face the ancestors of the Zhang family."

"If the emperor also feels this is a threat, I will accept any punishment you give me."

Princess Yongjia didn't expect Zhang Pan to be so difficult to deal with, and he was determined to kill Li Yunhuai.

If Zhang Pan and Li Yunzhou both mean this, even if the matter is brought to the imperial court, it will probably be difficult to resolve.

Princess Yongjia looked around at everyone and realized that she had to start with Li Yunzhou.

If Li Yunzhou was willing to let Li Yunhuai go, the matter could have been resolved.

She made up her mind and knelt down in front of Li Yunzhou.

"Yunzhou, your third brother did such a rebellious thing, and mother is responsible."

"Mother is kneeling down to atone for your third brother's sin. Can you spare his life? I promise that this will never happen again."

Li Chaoyun and Li Jingchuan rushed to help him. Li Jingchuan shouted at Li Yunzhou, "You rebellious son, why don't you agree to your mother's request?"

Song Hongshen frowned, "Are you going to force Yunzhou? If he doesn't agree, will he be accused of being unfilial?"

Zhang Pan sneered, "The son of the Li family is his son, so we are all worthless and deserve to be killed, right?"

Princess Yongjia didn't care what others thought, she just wanted to force Li Yunzhou to agree to this matter. As long as Li Yunzhou agreed, it would be equivalent to saving half of Li Yunhuai's life.

Just at this moment, a sharp announcement came from outside the crowd, "The Emperor has arrived."

When Princess Yongjia heard that the emperor was coming, she cried even harder. She was thinking about what she could say to move the emperor and spare Li Yunhuai.

But to Princess Yongjia's surprise, Li Yunzhou also knelt down in front of her.

These words made her heart hang in the balance.
