C476 What do you mean (1/2)
When Feng Ziyao saw the person who called Feng Lingyue 'wrongdoer' clearly, she abruptly stood up.
”Xiao He!”
How could it be him?
Xiao He was dressed in a light purple robe and was wrapped in a long divine tune. His deep eyes glanced at Feng Lingyue the moment he stepped into the Hall of Rongyuan.
As Feng Lingyue saw him, her face revealed a shocked expression. He really came?
Xiao He walked directly in front of the Emperor.
Zhou Cheng Di frowned and said, ”Xiao He, why are you here again? ”Don't think that just because I pointed out your daughter to you, you would have the right to criticize me for punishing your daughter.”
”Your Majesty, this lowly general would never dare!” This lowly general does not wish for the good to be unjustly accused and the bad to be carefree. ” As soon as Xiao He's words came out, Lian Zhaoyi and Feng Ziyao's hearts tightened, especially Feng Ziyao's. A wave of bitterness passed through her heart — —
She was clearly the person whose asthma had returned, she had suffered for several days, but Xiao He did not have the slightest care for her, only working hard for Feng Lingyue. At the very least, he had taught her for a long period of time in swordsmanship, and she had thought that because of this, they had some sort of friendship, but she did not expect that he still treated her as a stranger.
Her eyes were a little red as she asked, ”General Tianbao, what do you mean by that?”
However, Xiao He didn't even look at her as he directly said to Zhou Cheng Di, ”Your majesty, please allow this lowly general to prove that this matter has nothing to do with Princess Eleven.”
Zhou Cheng Di looked at Xiao He inquiringly and said, ”Alright, I'll promise you that I'll let you prove it. However, if you can't prove that Yue Er was wrongly accused, I'll punish you for barging into the Hall of Rongyuan.”
”Xiao He …” Hearing the emperor's words, Feng Lingyue's heart tightened as she worriedly asked.
However, Xiao He shook his head to reassure her. He then said to Zhou Cheng Di, ”Xiao He is willing to accept the Emperor's conditions. If I can't prove that Princess Eleven is innocent, then I'm willing to accept a hundred slates in front of the Hall of Rongyuan Palace.”
Hearing this, Feng Tang Yao's entire body shook. He was actually willing to accept the blame for trespassing into the Hall of Rongyuan, and he was even willing to defend Aunt Eleven? Although he was a great general, a hundred slates was more than enough to take his life.
Did he care so much about her?
”Alright, I agree.” Zhou Chengdi said.
”May Imperial Physician Rong come in.” As Xiao He gave the order, Imperial Physician Rong walked in with his back bent, knelt in front of the hall, and said:
”Your humble servant greets the Emperor.”
”Xiao He, what exactly happened, I want to hear from you.” Zhou Chengdi said.
”Your majesty, that day, the dried snow clams and dried shellfish in Princess Thirteenth's medicinal food, I've finally picked them all up.” As Xiao He spoke, he wrapped the two medicinal herbs that he picked out from the dregs with a piece of paper and said, ”I've invited Imperial Physician Rong to take a look. He said that a variety of dried snow clams and dried shellfish are extremely rare and precious.
”Yes, your majesty. The Marquis' words are extremely true. The dried snow toads and dried shellfish mixed in with the medicinal food were indeed sent out from the Imperial Hospital.” On the side, Imperial Physician Rong confirmed that what Xiao He said was true.
”The entry and exit of every single medicinal ingredient in the Grand Hospital will be recorded in detail, and according to what we know, this is the last thing that will happen. ”Such a precious ingredient. Ever since the empress's incident, Changchun Palace hasn't used it again.” Xiao He motioned for Imperial Physician Rong to submit the medicinal ingredients related to the past two months on the list to Emperor Zhou. ”This general requested Imperial Physician Rong to make a detailed record of them so that your majesty can easily look them up.”
