As soon as the King Of Zhao finished speaking, several old officials stepped forward to submit petitions, all of them asking the Hongyuan Emperor to severely punish Prince Xian to quell the anger of the people.
Seeing that the court was very noisy, the Hongyuan Emperor was deeply troubled and exhausted. He sternly said, "Enough, all of you, shut up!"
The Hongyuan Emperor's angry roar caused everyone to quickly stop, and the hall instantly fell silent.
The Hongyuan Emperor glared at the crowd and said in a low voice, "Fine, then tell me, how should we punish Prince Xian?"
The Emperor of Rui immediately gave his trusted aide, Official Zhou, a look. Official Zhou hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, although Prince Xian committed a serious crime, he is a prince and has a noble status, so he can be lightly punished. Your Majesty can give him 50 lashes, remove his title of Prince, and demote him to a prince. It's a small punishment, but a big punishment. "
When the others heard this, they were immediately filled with righteous indignation. "Prince Xian committed such a serious crime, how can he be lightly punished? Princes are punished the same as commoners. Prince Xian is vicious and merciless, his crimes are extremely heinous, and his influence is terrible. This official thinks that he should be demoted to a commoner and imprisoned in the Imperial Clan Court for life, never to leave! "
"No! It's too light to just imprison him in the Imperial Clan Court! Prince Xian is extremely vicious and dared to kill people in the palace. He should be sentenced to death. Only by killing one as an example can we explain to the people! "someone angrily said.
"That's right! Prince Xian should be killed and sentenced to death. Otherwise, it will be difficult to convince the people! "
"That's right! Prince Xian must be beheaded, otherwise it will be difficult to appease the hatred in the people's hearts! "
Seeing the officials so agitated, Chu Xuanchen coldly curled his lips. The officials' words made it seem as if Prince Xian was an unpardonable villain.
Didn't they say the same thing about him in the past?
These officials must have been bewitched. He was about to speak up for Prince Xian when a domineering female voice suddenly came from outside the hall. "Who said that Prince Xian is a murderer? With this young lady here, who dares to punish Prince Xian? "
When this domineering and cold voice came out, everyone was shocked.
They quickly turned around and saw a woman in red leading a group of people in a domineering manner under the golden sunlight!
She was beautiful, but her expression was cold. Her red dress made her skin as white as snow, and her hair was decorated with pearls that made her look cold and indifferent.
She was like an otherworldly fairy, stepping on the sunlight as she walked into the main hall. Her temperament was noble and elegant, and her radiance was boundless, dazzling everyone's eyes!
Seeing the woman in red walk in, everyone was dumbfounded.
Suddenly, someone shouted, "How dare you! Whose girl is this? How dare you trespass into the throne room? Are you tired of living? "
"That's right. Eunuch Xu, who is she? How could she go to the palace without reporting first? Who gave her the authority to enter the palace without permission? "
Hearing the crowd's rebuke, the woman was not afraid. Instead, she walked forward fiercely and swept her gaze over the crowd.
Finally, she stopped in front of Hongyuan Emperor and bowed slightly to him. She lightly said, "My apologies, Your Majesty. I was in a hurry just now and forgot to have someone report."
Hongyuan Emperor saw the woman, but not only was he not angry, he even politely said, "It's fine, it's just a small matter. My beloved officials, this young lady is our honored guest. We invited her to the palace as a guest, so don't be rude! "
In reality, it was Nalan Meng who came by herself. She seemed to have something to do. She had already stayed in the palace for two days, but he still couldn't figure out her intentions.
But when he heard her words, he instantly understood her intentions!
At this time, the woman indifferently raised her eyebrows. Her face was noble, as if she didn't put anyone in her eyes.
