Chapter 483 Accusations
Chapter 483 Accusations
The atmosphere has reached this point, no matter if others are willing or not, this visit is inevitable.
After everyone had performed the ceremony, Song Qingci's title of Princess Anguo was confirmed.
"Give Princess Anguo a seat. It is really unbecoming for a princess of a country to speak while standing." After Emperor Chengtian exchanged glances with Song Qingci, he instructed Eunuch Guo.
Finally, after all the busy work, Song Qingci sat directly below Emperor Chengtian, a position on the same level as Queen Mother Shan, and one level higher than King Huai.
"Fan Kang, please continue. Do you have any evidence for what you said before? If you bring out the evidence, His Majesty will definitely handle it impartially." The newly crowned Princess of Anguo, Song Qingci, acted like a superior. While speaking, she glanced at King Huai.
Looks very arrogant.
King Huai was so angry that he felt chest tightness and shortness of breath, but he was unable to vent his anger.
Fan Kang was also a little confused by this series of operations. He never thought that the person who settled them was Princess Anguo.
If the princess makes it clear that she wants to help them, does that mean that their chances of success will be greater?
"I have evidence! I have evidence!" Fan Kang shouted excitedly.
After saying that, he began to take off his shirt.
The cotton coat Fan Kang was wearing was ill-fitting and it was obvious that it was given to him by someone else. However, he was very careful when taking it off, for fear that it would be damaged.
Just when everyone was wondering why he was taking off his clothes, the official's wife closest to him suddenly made a frightened sound.
As his clothes were taken off, Fan Kang's body was covered with scars of varying sizes, depths and shallows.
Some were whipped with whips, some were hit with blunt objects, and some were cut with sharp weapons.
The most shocking thing was that there was a large area on his chest that was obviously a burn mark.
After the clothes were taken off, the wound was still bleeding.
It's obvious that these scars didn't appear in one day.
"All these scars on my body are evidence." Fan Kang took several steps forward and turned his body left and right so that people sitting in other seats could see them clearly.
Fan Kang looked no more than twelve or thirteen years old, but the scars on his body were no more than those of a soldier who had fought in battles for many years.
"My brother Fan Ping and I were originally farmers in the suburbs of Beijing. Our parents passed away one after another over the years, and until last year, my brother and I were the only ones left in our family."
"The elders in our family left some land to my brother and me. Although it's a bit hard, we can make ends meet."
"Unexpectedly, a few months ago, my brother Fan Ping disappeared in front of his home for no reason. After my unremitting investigation, I finally found the Prince Huai's Mansion. Someone saw my brother Fan Ping being taken into the Prince Huai's Mansion."
"I have no relatives in this world. My brother is my only relative. So, I sold myself and entered the Huaiwang Mansion as a servant. Just to find the whereabouts of my brother."
"God helps those who work hard. I finally found my brother's trail. Unfortunately, I was too late. My brother Fan Ping had been beaten to death by Prince Huai. And I didn't run away either. I was caught by them. These scars on my body were left by Prince Huai."
"It was then that I realized that the prince of Huai, who never showed himself to the public, was actually a demon who killed people without blinking an eye."
"He can stab you with a knife while smiling, and he can also watch his vicious dog tear people to pieces. In order to train his archery, he actually uses living people as targets. People who are lucky can survive his arrows, while those who are unlucky will be shot to death by his bow and arrow."
"Everyone says that Prince Huai is kind and generous, and is a good prince. However, he allowed his son to commit crimes. My brother is not the first person to die in his hands, nor will he be the last. If I hadn't been lucky enough, I would not have been able to escape from Prince Huai's mansion, and I would not be able to stand here and point out the evil behavior of Prince Huai's son..."
"You're talking nonsense!" Li Yian interrupted Fan Kang with a loud shout before he could finish his words.
Li Yian also went to the palace with King Huai to attend the banquet today. However, at the beginning, he was too lazy to watch the singing and dancing, so he went to the side hall to take a break.
He had just returned to the main hall when he heard Fan Kang's accusations against him.
His shouting was sharp and rough, which was totally unlike what one should show at his age.
"If you continue to talk nonsense, I will make sure you pay for it!"
Facing the furious Li Yian, Fan Kang subconsciously shrank back, but when his eyes swept over Song Qingci, he seemed to have gained some kind of power.
He suppressed his fear and slowly steadied himself.
"Every word I said was true. Not a single word was nonsense!"
"You really dare! You troublemaker!" Li Yian was provoked by Fan Kang and could no longer control his emotions. He wanted to rush up and attack him immediately.
But he was stopped by the guards around him.
"Prince Huai, seeing your prince is truly believing!" Song Qingci said, as if smiling, "The Emperor hasn't even spoken yet, but he can't help himself. It seems that some things are not groundless."
"Who are you?! How dare you speak to my father like that!"
He obviously missed the visit to Li Yian just now, so when he heard Song Qingci speaking so impolitely, he was furious.
"Me?!" Song Qingci pointed at herself, then said with a fake smile, "I am Princess Anguo. According to seniority, you should call me aunt."
When you go out, your identity is given by yourself. What Song Qingci said was not a lie.
His Majesty the Emperor has just given her a new identity, so it would be a shame not to use it.
In such a feudal dynasty, the identity of a princess was more useful than that of a general's wife.
"You're talking nonsense! I don't have an aunt!" Li Yian now looks like a super-male child who has gone crazy, which is completely different from his usual disguise.
Even swear words came out.
"Yian! Don't talk nonsense." Queen Mother Shan couldn't stand it anymore and spoke out to stop Li Yian.
"I...!" Although Li Yian was a mixed-up man, he could still tell the difference between good and bad looks.
Facing the Empress Dowager, his arrogance weakened by three points.
The words that he wanted to say were stuck in his throat.
"Fan Kang, you said so much just now, but you didn't produce any substantial evidence. The scars on your body are just your one-sided statement. Who can prove that the injuries were caused by Prince Huai? If you can't produce any evidence, what you said is just one-sided and cannot be trusted! The consequences of falsely accusing the royal family will be even more miserable than you are now!" Queen Mother Shan asked with indifferent eyes.
His words were full of protection for Li Yian.
