Chapter 395 Immediate execution
Huo Qingyun had studied with the princes in the Shangshufang since he was a child, so he had some understanding of them.
Emperor Tianqi Chen Xuanrui is the one with the least presence among all the princes.
After becoming the crown prince, he remained silent and serious, and his every word and action revealed his caution and fear.
It was not until he ascended the throne that Chen Xuanrui finally stopped being so cautious and began to be willing to express his ideas and use his own strengths.
But what the Lin family wants is just a puppet, so how could they allow the puppet to have its own voice?
Suppression, restraint, gentle knife... came one after another.
Huo Qingyun watched the ambitious Emperor Tianqi slowly turn into a trapped beast, his temper becoming increasingly weird... and witnessed his transformation.
Emperor Tianqi cast his gaze towards Lan Zheng and felt Lan Zheng's body tremble slightly. A dark light flashed in his eyes, but the cynical expression on his face did not change at all.
"He dared to burn my prison, and most importantly, assassinate the future Princess of Yan. I don't think he needs to be tried, just execute him!"
Lan Zheng's body softened and he almost collapsed to the ground.
"emperor……"
"Your Majesty, this man set fire to kill women and killed so many people in the prison. It's too easy for him to be executed so easily!
I beg the emperor to hand this man over to Lord Huo for severe interrogation and make sure he identifies the person behind this. "
Huo Qingyun was stunned for a moment, and his words were interrupted by Luo Xiaoran.
Huo Qingyun has now been charged with the crime of failing to protect the imperial city, and Luo Xiaoran will not let him contradict Emperor Tianqi again, so she spoke first.
Emperor Tianqi raised his eyebrows. Does Luo Xiaoran know what the so-called golden words mean?
What he said was an imperial edict. How could an imperial edict be taken back?
Luo Xiaoran contradicted me in public, which, strictly speaking, is a capital crime!
Could it be that the emperor's uncle wants to marry her because he sees that she is brave?
"What the Imperial Aunt said makes sense. However, since he dared to do such a treasonous act, he must be a dead man. There is no way to find out anything from him through interrogation. It is better to grant him the death penalty!"
Luo Xiaoran gritted her teeth. One of the two assassins was dead, and this only baby was the only one who could identify Chen Lingyi. If he died too, she didn't know when the next chance would come.
"Your Majesty, think twice! This man did not commit suicide like the other assassin before he was captured, which shows that he cherishes his life. As long as the method is appropriate, we will definitely be able to interrogate him to find out something."
Emperor Tianqi still had an amused look on his face, but he did not respond to Luo Xiaoran's words.
The atmosphere solidified.
Everyone, hold your breath.
At this moment, two eunuchs came one after another to report:
"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan led his people into the capital, and the city gate guards were forced to open the gate. Now His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan is outside the imperial city, and he said he wants to... see you."
"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager was furious when she heard about the fire in the Heavenly Prison! She was also furious when she heard that His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan broke into the Imperial City at night!"
Luo Xiaoran's pupils shrank when she heard this.
Chen Ji arrived in Kyoto so quickly?
Why did he break into the city gate at night? Now he wants to enter the palace!
Could it be that he knew about the fire in the Heavenly Prison?
He broke into the palace late at night in order to save himself!
Although it was a bit narcissistic to think so, Luo Xiaoran couldn't think of anything else that could make Chen Ji come here so recklessly.
But this act is extremely treasonous!
Luo Xiaoran's heart suddenly tightened into a ball, but she quickly calmed down.
Looking up at the two eunuchs who arrived at the scene almost at the same time, he already understood something in his heart.
Emperor Tianqi came here to silence the witnesses, presumably to protect Chen Lingyi.
The role of these two young eunuchs is to tell her that Chen Ji has committed a crime and it's up to her whether she hands him over or not!
