Chapter 288 - Chapter 288: Successful Counterattack



Thank you readers!

That’s right. The most terrifying thing in the entire matter was not the crime of deceiving the emperor, nor was it the crime of him “colluding” with the Qin family.

As long as he was still useful, Emperor Jing Xuan would not take his life.

He had enough ways to clear his name.

But the three children…

!!

He could not let Emperor Jing Xuan notice the three children!

Eunuch Quan entered with sweat all over his forehead and bowed respectfully.

“Your Majesty! I’ve brought them!”

Old Master Su and Brother Su were brought into the imperial study.

On the way here, Eunuch Quan repeatedly reminded the two of them to follow the rules. They must not offend the emperor and remember to kowtow.

The two of them were honest farmers. It was already scary enough to see the Marquis in the capital. Now that they had entered the palace and were about to meet Emperor Jingxuan…

Their legs were too weak to stand up, and they fell to the ground when they got out of the carriage.

The eunuchs supported them for a long time. Eunuch Quan said all kinds of good and bad things. He knocked and reminded them before finally comforting the two of them.

“Come in and kneel,” Eunuch Quan reminded softly, his eyebrows filled with disdain.

The two of them knelt on the ground and kowtowed!

Emperor Jing Xuan raised his hand.

The two of them did not dare to look up, so they naturally did not see it.

Eunuch Quan glanced at them. The two of them were too nervous and only cared about kowtowing.

Eunuch Fu said, “There’s no need to kowtow.”

Only then did the two of them stop. They looked up curiously at the man on the dragon throne.

Eunuch Quan coughed heavily. “Ahem!”

The two of them suddenly remembered Eunuch Quan’s reminder—don’t look directly at the holy face.

Old Master Su and Eldest Brother Su hurriedly lowered their heads and trembled!

Consort Xian covered her nose with a handkerchief in disdain. Country bumpkins stank!

Old Master Su and Brother Su were so frightened that they broke out in a sweat.

Eunuch Fu’s expression did not change. When Eunuch Quan saw that they had provoked Consort Xian, he was so angry that he glared at the two of them!

Wei Ting’s expression was as calm as ever, and a cold glint flashed across his eyes.

“Your Majesty, quickly interrogate them, ” Concubine Xian said coquettishly. She really couldn’t stand the unpleasant smell on the two of them. Jingxuan Emperor Dynasty Wei Ting looked at him deeply. “Wei Ting, I gave you a chance.”

“Your Majesty!” Concubine Xian urged.

She had already brought the witness! She could not give Wei Ting a chance to admit his mistake!

The military power of the Qin family and the Su family belonged to her son. How dare a young son of the Wei family snatch things from his son?

What nonsense!

Emperor Jing Xuan’s gentle gaze landed on Old Master Su and Brother Su. “What are your names? Where are you from?”

This was the emperor. The emperor’s aura made the two of them almost unable to breathe.

Old Master Su kowtowed again and said shakily, “I… I… Su Gu. He’s my eldest grandson… Brother… Brother Su… We’re from Apricot Flower Village in

Qingzhou. ”

“From the same village as Su Cheng?” Emperor Jing Xuan asked.

Old Master Su had heard Su Cheng’s name for half his life. In the past, he only felt disdain. Now, he knew that he was not worthy.

Old Master Su replied in fear and trepidation, “Yes… we used to live in a village… After that… they moved to the capital…”

Emperor Jing Xuan said, “Do you know someone called Wei Ting?”

Old Master Su forgot the rules again and looked up in a daze. “Wei… Mr. Wei? He’s the only one in the village with the surname Wei.”

Eunuch Quan winked. Do not stare at the emperor!

How unruly!

Emperor Jing Xuan did not mind.

He paid attention to the etiquette of the imperial court, but that depended on the person. It was disrespectful for his subjects to not observe it but how could these country bumpkins understand this?

Emperor Jing Xuan thought for a moment and said, “It’s him. Tell me about him.”

Old Master Su stammered, “He… is the live-in son-in-law of the Su family… Su Cheng’s family!”

Emperor Jing Xuan gestured for Old Master Su to continue.

Old Master Su continued, “Mr. Wei isn’t from our village… The first time I saw him was at the beginning of winter. He came to the village entrance and lingered. I asked him who he was looking for and he asked me if there was a family with the surname Su in the village. I said that my surname is Su. He said that it wasn’t me. He said the family moved here more than ten years ago and the head of the family was probably in his thirties. When I heard that he was here to ask about the Su family, I didn’t have a good expression.”

Emperor Jing Xuan said, “Why?”

Old Master Su said, “The Su family doesn’t have a good reputation in the village. Su Cheng has been an escort outside and knows many people. I didn’t take it to heart. I didn’t expect him to become the live-in son-in-law of the Su family a month later.”

A thought-provoking glint flashed across Emperor Jing Xuand’s eyes. “You mean… Wei Ting first investigated the Su family before coming to their house to be a live-in son-in-law?”

Old Master Su hurriedly said, “Mr. Wei didn’t come personally. He was injured and was picked up by Su Cheng. Coincidentally, Su Daya’s engagement was broken, so Su Cheng asked him to be his daughter’s husband.”

Consort Xian took advantage of the situation and said, “Your Majesty! Listen! Wei Ting really has ulterior motives!”

Emperor Jing Xuan frowned and said to the two of them, “Look up.”

Old Master Su and Brother Su raised their heads trembling, their eyes filled with panic.

Emperor Jing Xuan narrowed his eyes. “You’re lying!”

The two of them trembled!

Emperor Jing Xuan said coldly, “Men, drag them away and flog them a hundred times until they’re willing to tell the truth!”

Four powerful eunuchs immediately walked in and dragged the two of them out without a word.

Old Master Su cried out, “Your Majesty, spare me! Your Majesty, spare me! I was forced…’

Emperor Jing Xuan raised his hand indifferently.

The eunuchs put him down.

Old Master Su fell to the ground and trembled. “I… I was forced… Those words… were said by someone… who threatened me… I just left the Marquis of Zhenbei this morning… I wanted to find a cheap caravan to return to Qingzhou… Unexpectedly, I was captured…’

“That person gave me a pile of silver and taught me… to say those words… He even threatened me… If I don’t obey him… he’ll let me and my grandson die in the capital…’

Emperor Jing Xuan asked suspiciously, “There’s actually such a thing?”

It was unknown where Su Dalang got the courage from, but he quickly said, “Your Majesty! What my grandfather said is all true!”

Consort Xian’s expression changed.

What was Qin Jiang doing?

Couldn’t he even control two farmers?

He had revealed his true colors so quickly!

Emperor Jing Xuan continued, “What exactly is going on with that Mr. Wei?”

Old Master Su broke out in a cold sweat and said, son-in-law that Su Cheng picked up. I’m not lying never been to the village before… He’s never asked Emperor Jing Xuan pointed at Wei Ting. “Look up.

Concubine Xian’s frown relaxed again.

That was right. Even if she couldn’t frame Wei Ting for deliberately approaching the Qin family, she could at least prove that Wei Ting had appeared in Qingzhou.

Then Wei Ting would have committed the crime of deceiving the emperor!

“No, I don’t.”

Old Master Su said.

Consort Xian’s body swayed. “What did you say? You don’t know him? Look carefully!”

Old Master Su said in a daze, “I-I saw it clearly… I really don’t know him.”

Concubine Xian said seriously, “He’s Wei Ting! That Mr. Wei from your village!”

Old Master Su looked at Wei Ting and shook his head. “No, he’s not. Mr.. Wei doesn’t look like this!”
