The Abandoned Daughter - Chapter 319
Xiao Junyi hadn’t slept for long at this time, so it was time for him to go up. During the Mid-Autumn Festival, Concubine Hui asked for a decree to Emperor Jing and asked him to give a guarantee in front of Emperor Jing that not only the ban was lifted, but he was also able to go to court normally.
It’s just that Xiao Junyi didn’t expect that there will be a big turmoil in the court today.
He didn’t go too early, most of the courtiers had already arrived. As soon as Xiao Junyi saw Xiao Junhan, he felt frustrated, for fear that the latter would ask herself about Zhang Xiuyan.
But Xiao Junhan turned out to be uncharacteristically uncharacteristically not even looking at his side. He just kept talking and laughing with Qin Shangshu, which made Xiao Junyi put his heart at ease.
And he also noticed that today’s Zhang Shangshu did not go to court either. Is it because the daughter was lost, so the worry didn’t come?
Before Xiao Junyi could understand, he heard a sharp eunuch’s voice, “The emperor is here–“
“Long live my emperor!”
As soon as the officials knelt, the voice of Shanhu Long live through the magnificent hall and straight up to the clouds.
Emperor Jing raised his hand and said, “All the Qings are exempt from gifts.”
“Long live Xie.”
After the officials all stood up and returned to their positions, Emperor Jing said, “There is something to tell about the Qing family.”
“The minister has this memorial–” As an old-fashioned person who leads by example, Qin Shangshu always talks about everything that he cannot see.
Only today, before he finished speaking, he heard someone crying outside the hall, “The emperor, please give the veteran the master!”
The sound was from far to near, accompanied by the noisy footsteps, and everyone walked along the prestige, and they saw Zhang Shangshu walking ahead in tears, looking distraught.
Upon seeing this, Xiao Junyi felt tight in his heart, and subconsciously looked behind him, the heart raised his throat even more. Because Zhang Shangshu was followed by a group of people, and it seemed to be carrying something!
Emperor Jing obviously saw it too, and for a moment, he saw Zhang Shangshu had trot into the hall, and he knelt on the ground and cried, “The emperor–“
There was an uproar in the hall, because the things carried by the people behind Zhang Shangshu looked like a person!
Emperor Jing also asked with some doubts, “Zhang Aiqing, please ask, what are you going to play?”
Zhang Shangshu said with grief and indignation, “The old official is going to sue the fifth prince Xiao Junyi today, accusing him of insulting the official’s daughter first, and murdering her second!”
Upon hearing this, Emperor Jing immediately looked towards the ground, faintly guessing something in his heart, because he asked, “What is that?”
Zhang Shangshu wiped the tears from his face and lifted the white cloth away. It was Zhang Xiuyan’s corpse!
There was still some bruise on her face, and at first glance, she looked like she had been beaten to death. And there were some blood stains on his body, which looked terrifying in the morning.
Emperor Jing’s face changed slightly, and his voice was filled with joy and anger, “What’s going on? Zhang Aiqing will elaborate.”
“Yes.” Zhang Shangshu took a deep breath and said, “This morning when the old official came to court, he collided with a few young and strong men. Seeing those few people carrying a broken mat, he gave them their way. Who knows This morning the wind was strong, and the mat was blown away, and it turned out to be the face of my son Zhang Xiuyan! The old minister immediately asked someone to take them down. After some interrogation, he realized that they were from the prefectural palace and my son died early in the morning. In the county palace, the five princes ordered them to throw a roll of straw mat to the mass grave!”
Speaking of the last, Zhang Shangshu looked at Xiao Junyi’s eyes and wanted to swallow him alive.
Zhang Shangshu has only this daughter, she has been a jewel in her palm since she was a child, not a treasure. Now that he is so dead, and still in such a humiliating way, how can he be made to panic without hate!
But the other party was the emperor’s own son. Zhang Shangshu couldn’t take the initiative to divide the man into five horses. He could only go to the emperor to call for injustice. He didn’t believe it. In front of the Manchu civil and military forces, the emperor could not explain it!
Emperor Jing looked at Xiao Junyi angrily, and asked in a deep voice, “Fifth, what Zhang Shangshu said is the truth?”
Xiao Junyi never thought that those idiots would be so unreliable, and they would be hit by their own family even if they were to throw themselves away. At the moment, he was so angry that he wanted to jump, but when Emperor Jing asked, he was a little scared, and he couldn’t help kneeling down and said, “Back to the father, you listened to the explanation of Erchen! Erchen ran into Miss Zhang Jia on the street yesterday, It was found that she was lying on the ground covered in blood, and the child minister took her home out of good intentions.”
Having said that, he swallowed and spit, and said, “Unexpectedly, the government doctor said that she had taken strong medicine on her own terms. The back government doctor saved her all night, but still failed to save her life. The child minister could not help, again. Fearing that she would be misunderstood if she was sent back to Shangshufu, she was flustered for a while, and ordered someone to carry her to the mass grave, thinking about looking back and finding a way to report to Shangshufu.”
He is not stupid, so naturally he can’t tell Zhang Xiuyan’s pregnancy, otherwise, he will be even more reasonable and unclear.
But who would have thought that after he finished speaking, he heard Qin Shangshu angrily said, “The princess, you must speak with your conscience!” After that, Qin Shangshu raised the Zhezi in his hand again, and said, “The emperor, the old man today The person who was going to join early is the king of the county! Yesterday the old minister happened to meet the king of the county when he was walking on the street, but he saw that he fisted a woman and forced her into the carriage. At that time, the old minister did not see the woman’s face clearly. Now Want to come, that woman is the one lying on the ground!”
In fact, Qin Shangshu only saw the last scene. When he passed by, he heard someone say that Xiao Junyi was holding onto a girl. When he squeezed into the crowd, he only saw Xiao Junyi carrying the unconscious Zhang Xiuyan into the carriage, as if he was finally subdued.
After the carriage left, a pool of blood remained on the ground, which even asked him to confirm that Xiao Junyi had acted on Zhang Xiuyan.
I have to say that this play designed by Xiao Junhan is extremely ingenious, enough to make Xiao Junyi’s argument indisputable.

As soon as Qin Shangshu finished speaking, Xiao Junyi immediately became angry, “You, you spit people! There were so many people on the street yesterday, so many eyes looked at it. This Wang Mingming carried the unconscious Miss Zhang into the carriage. How can you fight her together!”
Qin Shangshu also blew his beard and stared, “Old officials never lie. If there is a lie, the heaven will die!”
The ministers who were present didn’t know that this Qin Shangshu was the most staid person, not to mention others, it was Xiao Junhan who committed the crime, he was the first to participate in the performance, and it was impossible to help others to design people.
So, unless this is the truth he saw.
As soon as he heard this, Zhang Shangshu kowtowed on the ground and said, “The emperor, you have all the evidence, please be fair to the old man! The old man does not want to pay for his life, but only asks my daughter to die under Jiuquan. Peace of mind!”
Xiao Junhan on the side was also fanning the flames, “Fifth brother, you just have a bad temper in the past, but this is the daughter of a minister, how can you do such a thing! Xiuyan’s cousin Xiuwaihuizhong, but a rare good girl!”
Zhang Xiuyan’s mother is his real aunt, and it is not too much for him to come out and say something.
It was only at this moment that Xiao Junyi heard what he meant to watch the excitement. Xiao Junyi immediately said angrily, “Xiao Junhan, you count me! Everything is calculated by you, right?”
From the time I went to the appointment, I fell into his trap!
Seeing that Xiao Junyi started to “crawl and bite” indiscriminately, Emperor Jing became even more panic when he looked at him. He doesn’t know what virtue this son is, but he didn’t expect him to be a **** to this point!
Xiao Junhan was right, she was the daughter of a first-grade member, and she was also named the county owner a few days ago!
Xiao Junyi was already crying and she couldn’t help but kowtow, “Father, the son is really wronged. The son did not play Miss Zhang on the street yesterday. When I met her, she was already I’m in a coma!”
“What the king said is saying that the old official is lying!”
As soon as Xiao Junyi said this, Qin Shangshu on the side quit, and immediately blew his beard and stared. His whole life’s reputation for integrity has come to be slandered by a hairy boy?
Qin Shangshu snorted, and said, “I said the princess, knowing a mistake can improve the greatness. But if you blindly excuse yourself, it’s not what a big man did!”
Zhang Shangshu didn’t say anything else, only knelt beside his daughter’s corpse, and kept saying, “Please let the emperor let the dead rest in peace!”
There are people who fan the flames, there are people who cry bitterly, and even those who firmly believe that they are witnesses. All the evidence pushes Xiao Junyi to the cusp of the storm, making him unable to refute even if he wants to refute.
At this moment, Emperor Jing looked at Xiao Junxi and asked, “Jing Wang, what do you think?”
Xiao Junxi also started to be a good man at this time, and said respectfully, “Father Emperor is clear.”
In fact, he faintly felt that this matter was strange, but he hadn’t considered it clearly at the moment, so naturally he wouldn’t say it. It was a trip to muddy water, and he didn’t bother to get in.
Emperor Jing caressed his faintly painful forehead, just about to speak, but he heard the maid outside the hall shouting, “Concubine Hui is here–“
Emperor Jing suddenly became one of the first two big children, why is she here at this time?
Concubine Hui hurried over and was shocked when she saw the corpse in the hall, and then knelt on the ground and said, “The concubine please greet the emperor.”
And the voice of greetings in the hall also sounded, “please send your greetings to Concubine Hui.”
Concubine Hui turned a deaf ear to the surrounding voices, and asked at the outset, “The emperor, the concubine only asked, what was the cause of the death of this young lady? Was she beaten to death?”
She didn’t believe that a girl looked so good after being killed.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Junyi’s expression changed drastically when she said this. When Concubine Hui accidentally saw Xiao Junyi’s expression, her heart was tight. Could it be that she was here by mistake and her son really killed someone?
But it shouldn’t be, what hatred does he have with Zhang Xiuyan worthy of such a dead hand? Concubine Hui knew her son, although he was a bit tyrannical, but not to the point of inhumanity. So, why on earth?
Xiao Junyi’s face was ugly, and Emperor Jing said solemnly, “Come here, carry Miss Zhang’s body to the side hall, and check with the royal doctor and Wu!”
Zhang Shangshu also asked for justice, and agreed without thinking about it.
Not long after Zhang Xiuyan’s body was carried away, the imperial doctor and Hao Zuo entered the hall. After kowtow, the two looked at each other and said, “Back to the emperor, Miss Zhang’s death was caused by taking a violent abortion drug, which killed both mother and child. .”
Hao Zuo Ze added, “Inferred from the time of death, the time of taking the drug should be unitary time.”
Suddenly, the people in the hall looked at each other, and Zhang Shangshu was also taken a step back in shock by the news. His daughter died of abortion pill, in other words, she was pregnant?
Xiao Junhan set up his clothes at this moment, and said in pain, “Go back to the emperor, the son, please, the son has concealed one thing from you.”
When Emperor Jing looked at the court, he felt a headache more and more, and waved his hand, “Let’s talk.”
