Everyone in the court suddenly burst into laughter. There is a difference between legitimate concubine and concubine. If he is a legitimate son or nephew of the Wang family, he can not only be called the cousin of Wei Haohao, but also the cousin of the concubine Wei Liu. This is not considered to be buried, but to promote Wei Liu's identity. But if the two were exchanged, it would obviously be an insult to Wei Haohao's identity.
Liu Bei couldn't bear to lose face and was spoiled by Liu Fei. At this time, he was still arguing: "Princess Jin was unwilling to be lonely and entrusted Aunt Liu to come to me. I reluctantly went to the palace to see her. After that She even hosted a banquet for me in Haizhen Tower, and everyone in the capital saw it. What else is this admiration for?"
Liu Fei on the side felt that what he said was going to be bad, but he couldn't figure it out. Wherever there was a problem, there was no time for Liu Bei to explain himself.
Without waiting for everyone to comment on this, Li Jun smashed the table in front of him with one palm. Everyone was shocked and did not dare to speak, waiting for Li Jun to have an attack.
Emperor Yan Ping was startled by the sudden loud noise. After reacting, he said angrily: "Prince Jin, what are you doing?"
Li Jun's face looked pale. He said gloomily: "Father, since this person said that it was my wife who invited him to come to the palace, it is better to send Aunt Liu to the palace and confront her together."
After all these years, Emperor Yan Ping has also I have never seen Li Jun show such emotion. I knew that Li Jun must be really angry. I wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to do something, but then I thought of Li Jun's temper and was afraid that he would suddenly rebel. I had some concerns.
Li Wei said: "Your Majesty, what King Jin said is not unreasonable. Please allow Your Majesty to allow Aunt Liu to come to the palace to find out the matter together and clear the name of King Jin and Princess Jin."
Pei Lun agreed: "That's right. Since there are witnesses, the witnesses should be summoned to the palace. How can the reputation of the prince and the integrity of the princess be ruined just by the words of this madman."
There were people in the court who had long disliked the Liu family and his son, and they all agreed at this time. Upon seeing this, Emperor Yan Ping said: "Then the Liu family of the Wei family will be announced to the palace."
Lu Wen'an suggested at this time : "Your Majesty, should Princess Jin be summoned to the palace together so that she can confront her face to face?"
"No need."
Emperor Yan Ping looked at Li Jun who interrupted, displeased. Said: "In that case, let's not call Princess Jin to the palace first, but let's listen to what the Wei Liu family has to say."
Not long after, Aunt Liu was brought to the palace. Although she didn't have much experience, , but looking at the situation in the court, I can't help but feel a little worried. When passing by Wei Guangdu, she hurriedly grabbed Wei Guangdu's sleeve and asked, "Master, what are you doing?"
Wei Guangdu opened her hand and said angrily: " Don't be presumptuous in front of the Emperor! If the Emperor asks you anything, answer him honestly. If you deliberately deceive the Emperor, it will be a crime of beheading, and I can't protect you."
Mrs. Liu was frightened by him. Suddenly, I felt like my soul was flying to heaven. How could it be so serious? Mrs. Liu nervously walked to Emperor Yan PingAfter giving a half salute in front of him, Gao Shihe angrily said: "Kneel down."
Above the main hall, without the emperor's permission, even the prince had to salute and bow. This Aunt Liu is just a member of the official family. A concubine is not eligible for exception.
Aunt Liu was so frightened that she knelt down obediently. However, she had never learned any etiquette, so naturally she didn't know what to do next. Fortunately, Emperor Yan Ping was tired of this boring behavior and asked directly: "Ms. Wei Liu, do you recognize those two people?"
Aunt Liu glanced at Liu Fei and his son and replied: " I understand."
"Zong Zheng, ask for me."
Li Xi understood that Emperor Yan Ping had entrusted him with this case.
"I obey the decree."

This matter involves a relative of the emperor, and Li Xi is the governor of Jingzhao, so it is most appropriate for him to ask this question.
"Ms. Wei Liu, I would like to ask you, what is your relationship with these two people?"
Aunt Liu whispered: "They are relatives from my natal family."
"As far as I know, your parents died when you were young, and you were sold into a wealthy family as a maid, and then went to the Wei Mansion as a maid. How did you know that these two are relatives from your mother's side?" < /p>
"This..." Aunt Liu was a little unable to answer.
Li Wei asked Wei Guangdu again: "Master Wei, do you know anything about Wei Liu's life experience?"
Wei Guangdu raised his hand and said: "According to Wei's knowledge, There are no relatives in the Liu family."
Li Xi nodded and suddenly said sternly: "How did you get to know the two of them if Wei Liu didn't recruit her?"
Aunt Liu had never seen a big scene, and she almost burst into tears after being scolded by Li Xi. She whispered: "It was Liu Fei who found me and said that he was a distant relative of my family and wanted to help me save my daughter. I He only agreed to introduce his son to Haohao. Sir, I was wrong, but I didn’t do anything bad. This has nothing to do with me!”
“Aunt Liu...” Liu Feigang thought. After prompting one or two, Li Wei sternly interrupted and said: "Shut up!" Liu Fei didn't dare to speak anymore, but he felt more and more bad.
Although Aunt Liu didn't know what happened, she instinctively felt that something must have happened to summon her to the palace. No matter what the reason for going to the palace was, Aunt Liu made up her mind that all this was the instigation of the Liu family and her son, and she did nothing.
"Did Princess Jin ask you to summon Liu Fei to the palace?"
Aunt Liu didn't understand why Li Fei asked this, she said honestly: "It was Liu Fei who asked me. The princess who brought his son into the palace did not know about it beforehand. But I took Liu Bei to the palace and left. Everything that happened after that has nothing to do with me. Please be aware of it."
"Master Liu, is what Wei Liu said true?"
Liu FeiyanHe spat, and the sweat on his forehead started to fall, but he couldn't think of a countermeasure, so he said quietly: "Yes, it's the truth."
"You are so bold, Liu Ge, how dare you fabricate lies to damage the reputation of the princess, you This is an insult to the royal family. According to the law, he should be cut in half and the three clans should be killed!"
Liu Fei quickly knelt down and begged: "Your Majesty, I was temporarily confused and talking nonsense. Please forgive me! !"
Liu Bei was so frightened when he heard that he was about to die, and hurriedly explained: "My father told me this. Dad, please tell the emperor, this is none of my business. "
Liu Fei saw that not only could this situation not cure King Jin's crime, but it would also cost the lives of their father and son, he immediately changed the focus and said: "Your Majesty, this is just an inducement, what really needs to be punished is Prince Jin, he severely injured the child. Is it okay to kill innocent people just because he is a prince? "
"You keep saying that it was me who did it, but your son didn't even see me do it with your own eyes? , how can you be sure that it was me who did it? Could it be that you were present at the time?"
"I..." Liu Fei was speechless for a moment, and then he felt that he had really acted too hastily.
