Chapter 3519 The male cannon fodder wife in ancient novels 38

When the news of the old emperor's death came, Qin Honghou couldn't help but be stunned.

Because this is the situation she least wants to see. The old emperor is gone. Even if the new emperor and his son are gone in the future, the third prince will have three other competitors. It will be very difficult for him to ascend to the throne.

It would be different if the old emperor had not died and the new emperor and his son had died first. In that case, the old emperor's love for the third prince would have allowed the third prince to ascend to the throne.

The next development caught Qin Hanhou even more unprepared.

After the death of the old emperor, the prince spent twenty-seven days in mourning, and then continued to deal with government affairs. There was no trouble in the court, so it was beneficial to ascend to the throne early, at least the political power could be transferred smoothly.

In order to prevent long nights and nightmares, Qin Honghou urged the eyeliner to increase the dose, hoping to kill the new emperor and his son as soon as possible.

As a result, everything had been fine before, but this time he was suddenly discovered by the former crown prince and now the new emperor.

The drugged spy was caught by people sent by the new emperor and handed over to Dali Temple, Shenxing Department and Punishment Department for interrogation.

There are experts in these three divisions. How could the people of Qin Honghou's faction resist and confess quickly? After all, when Qin Honghou deployed people, his methods were not very clever and there were traces. It was just that the prince pretended not to know and let him He had managed to survive for such a long time, so it was not difficult to control this man and make him spit out the person behind him. He quickly followed the clues and found the Third Prince's Mansion.

After reaching the third prince's residence, the prince naturally sent people to surround the third prince's residence, and arrested the third prince and Qin Honghou who were identified by the spy, and also arrested some people involved in the incident.

Seeing that he was about to be killed for poisoning the emperor, Qin Honghou didn't care anymore. He immediately said that he was the emperor's concubine who died back then. She said that she didn't really die back then and that she bought fake death medicine to fake her death. The interrogator told the emperor.

Qin Honghou also knew that even if he said this, he might not be able to survive. After all, as the crown prince's concubine, if he didn't want to do it, he ran away and followed the third prince, no matter what, it didn't look like he could survive.

However, she was still lucky, thinking what if, what if the emperor still had some feelings for her and wouldn't kill her?

——Facts have proved that this is indeed a fluke on her part, because after Sansi told the new emperor such a ridiculous answer, the new emperor only said lightly: "Pretending to be my deceased concubine will be punished by an additional degree."

He didn't mention meeting Qin Honghou, or even said he wanted to let her go.

This is normal. Not to mention what Qin Honghou did to him, there is no way he would let her go. Just because she faked her death and ran away and was with the third prince, the new emperor would not admit it. After all, Once he admits that Qin Honghou was Qin's concubine, wouldn't he indirectly admit that Qin Honghou cuckolded him? He is stupid. He admits this and makes the world laugh at him.

Therefore, we can only deny the other party and add a new charge of impersonating the emperor's concubine to the other party.

Because Qin Honghou has done too many bad things, she will definitely sentence him to death.

As for the third prince, the new emperor is prepared to spare his life, but will keep him locked up.

On the other hand, the concubine Wang Huanggui became anxious when she saw that the late emperor had just died and the new emperor started to deal with her son. She immediately came to plead for mercy. Seeing that it had no effect, she began to curse the prince, saying that the late emperor had just left, so the prince began to bully his brothers and they were not human beings. What you do.

Anyway, the new emperor ignored her and she couldn't save her son. In that case, what else was she afraid of? She could scold him whatever she wanted.

It's a pity that the concubine Wang Huang didn't scold the prince for long. The second prince happened to come. Hearing her scolding the prince, he rushed to the line and said: "The third child also poisoned me. It was the father who begged me not to say anything. Go out, I didn’t say it, I didn’t want to say it. After all, I promised my father, but seeing you talk about the emperor brother like this, I don’t like to hear it. It’s obviously not enough for the third child to poison me, and now you are poisoning the emperor brother. , the emperor's brother did not kill him, which is enough to show his kindness. You also said that as soon as the father left, the emperor's brother started to bully his brothers. Isn't it too unreasonable? You only allow your son to poison and harm others, but others can't deal with him? It’s strange to say, is there something wrong with the third child? He poisoned this one today and poisoned that one tomorrow, and they are still his brothers, so why is his heart so poisonous? "

The royal concubine also did not expect that the second prince would come out to speak for the prince. When she heard the second prince say this, her eyes rolled wildly, and she began to think of a counterattack, and finally said: "Don't accuse my son unjustly, you Is there any evidence? Are you just accusing him of this?"

Concubine Wang Huanggui thought that since the late emperor asked the second prince not to reveal the matter to others, he should have smoothed it out. The second prince could not produce evidence, so she dared to question him like this.

As long as the second prince cannot produce evidence, he will just talk nonsense and make random claims. People may also say that he deliberately framed his brother in order to curry favor with the new emperor.

After hearing what she said, the second prince couldn't help but feel happy, and immediately sneered: "Of course I still have the evidence! I haven't killed the person who the third son arranged to poison me at the time. At that time, I thought, father If you don't let me seek justice for myself, I might be able to seek justice for myself when Brother Huang comes to power, so I didn't kill that slave. I didn't expect that it would actually come in handy now! Otherwise, you would be like this I was really speechless when I was bitten back. Now, the confession, witness, and even the poison that poisoned me at that time are still there, and you can't deny it even if you want to."

Normally, the old emperor would have helped Lao San settle the evidence. But at that time, the old emperor had suffered a stroke and he couldn't move. He had enough to worry about to save his life and his own power, so there was nothing extra. Time, help the third child clean up the matter and destroy the evidence on the second hand, so I only see that the second child agrees not to tell the outside world about the third child poisoning him, knowing that he should not dare to tell it, so let it go.

So now, when the concubine Wang Huanggui thought that the second prince had no evidence, the second prince took out the evidence, leaving the concubine Wang Huanggui speechless.

Her son had poisoned the prince before, and when the prince found out, she could still complain that as soon as the late emperor left, the prince began to bully his brothers. Outsiders who didn't know it might really think that the prince couldn't stand the third prince and arranged it deliberately. A trap, a frame-up to frame the third prince - this is also the effect Wang Huanggui wanted to create. She just wanted others to think that her son did not do such a thing because the prince could not stand him and was wronging him.

But now, the second prince also jumped out and said that the third prince poisoned him, and there were witnesses and physical evidence. Two people in a row said that her son poisoned people, and it was difficult to say that everyone was wrongly accusing him.

After all, there is only the prince. It can be said that the prince wants to get rid of her son and deliberately frame her. Maybe some people will believe it. After all, how can ordinary people know the truth?

But if there are other people, it would be a bit funny for her to insist that her son was wronged. After all, it is difficult for others to believe that her son is innocent and so many people are wronging him alone.
