1693 Chapter 1693-everything is wrong
....
After arranging for a few princes, the Emperor indicated that the Imperial Censorate could give a speech.
Then, a few censors came out to impeach Duke Rong and listed the crimes of his family.
The witnesses and material evidence were all present. In the entire Duke Rong residence, besides Madam li, none of the Duke Rong couple and Li Muyan were innocent. The most terrifying thing was that they had colluded with the enemy and betrayed the country. They had made contact with the dark blue Country, which was located in the East of cloud region. And Li Shan was the mastermind behind all this.
Fortunately, Gu shouxin and Lu Zheng had warned the Emperor before, and he had sent people to keep an eye on Li Shan. Otherwise, he would not have found out about this.
When Li Shan was exposed, as the concubine of the third Prince, some officials said that there was something wrong with the third Prince.
The Emperor asked the third Prince to prove his innocence.
As the Prince of the great Zhou, it was true that the third Prince wanted to be the Emperor, but he had never thought of using the power of another country to become the Emperor.
So, when Li Shan did this, the third Prince really didn’t know.
His mind was clear as he continued to argue with the Minister, listing how he had been deceived by Li Shan and how he did not know the truth.
The Emperor listened expressionlessly, but the disappointment in his heart increased by another layer.
His son was indeed not worthy of being the ruler of a country. First of all, he did not have the responsibility.
If he was deeply in love with a woman, he would never push her away at this time. Even if he had to be thick-skinned and cry, plead, and ask to be demoted to a commoner, it would be better than a man who cut off all relations.
In the end, the third Prince was not guilty. What Li Shan had asked him to do, he had already done. It could not be considered as a violation of the law. It was for the benefit of the country and the people, and he had destroyed the Lin family.
So, the third Prince was not guilty, and Li Shan was sentenced to beheading. Li Muyan and Duke Rong were the same. Only Madam li, who didn’t know anything about the verdict, went crazy because of it. She was taken home by the eldest daughter of the Li family in Qing Province to retire.
Just like that, the great Zhou Dynasty had a Crown Prince, and each Prince had their own duties. The power of the relatives was all removed, and the Zhou Dynasty was thriving.
……
The day before Li Shan’s head was cut off, she requested to see Gu Nian.
The current Gu Nian was an important member of the Imperial court’s weaponry Department. He was not someone who could be seen by a prisoner on death row.
Naturally, the jailer did not agree to her request. As a result, the third Prince came to see Li Shan for the last time.
Even though they had mistook each other for their lifesaver, the relations.h.i.+p they had built over the past few years had turned out to be real. The third Prince hated Li Shan, but since she was already dead, he felt that it was not wrong to fulfill her last request. Thus, he went to look for Gu Nian on Li Shan’s behalf.
Since Gu Nian was not busy, she came after hearing the third Prince’s words.
“You’re not Gu Nian!” This was the first thing that Li Shan said to Gu Nian when they met.
“Just because you say I’m not, I’m not?” Gu Nian laughed.
are you like me? do you already know everything that’s going to happen? is that why you’re making things difficult for us and causing this? ” Li Shan asked again.
“Secondary consort Li, are you joking?” Gu Nian’s smile widened.
“You’re the heir. Starting from Lu Zheng, you, Cai Xiaolian, and Gu Xin, there’s something wrong with all of them!” Li Shan pointed at Gu Nian as she came to a sudden realization.
“Oh? Was it? If there’s something wrong with both of us, why didn’t my father see it? Why didn’t lu Zheng’s grandparents see it? Li Shan, I’m afraid you’re sick. Do you want someone to treat your brain and then cut it off?” Gu Nian would never admit it. Who knew if there were any of the emperor’s men around the cell?
Li Shan fell into deep thought. Yes, she had never seen Gu shouxin in her previous life.
