Chapter 277 The Queen Mother's Grandson
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Helian Ziyu looked embarrassed and struggled to say, "I, I cannot say anything about this matter. I promised that person that this matter is entirely my own business and cannot involve anyone else in any way. Therefore, I cannot say anything."
"Now that things have come to this, is there anything shameful that has not been explained?" Ji Chilian said coldly, "Helian Guoshen, only the royal family can mobilize the Dragon Shadow Guard. If you don't tell me, you are overstepping your authority and arbitrarily mobilizing the Dragon Shadow Guard for your own selfish desires. This is a serious crime that offends the royal family."
"I have a clear conscience, but I can't say it. I just can't say it." Helian Ziyu was very stubborn, and looked like he would rather die than surrender.
Looking at Helian Ziyu's expression, one can guess that there must be other things involved, Yi Qianhuan thought, looking towards the direction of the gate.
On this side, the ministers also advised Helian Ziyu, hoping that Helian Ziyu could tell the truth.
But Helian Ziyu was very stubborn and refused to cooperate, which made the emperor feel embarrassed: "Helian Guoshen, if you don't explain, I will have no choice but to punish you."
Helian Ziyu still didn't say anything, but just kowtowed heavily to Bei Yunting with a stubborn look.
Seeing that Helian Ziyu was not cooperating, Bei Yunting's eyes showed disappointment: "If that's the case, then punish him..."
"Your Majesty, I only have this one adopted grandson, and you still want to punish him. Aren't you deliberately trying to make me feel uncomfortable?" At this moment, a helpless sigh was heard, followed by a figure walking in from outside the door, successfully attracting the attention of everyone present.
Everyone looked at the Queen Mother as she walked in from outside the Guangming Palace.
The key point is that behind the Queen Mother, there is a group of people wearing silver-gray robes.
Yi Qianhuan discovered that among these people, there were a few who looked very familiar to her, as if she had seen them somewhere before, but she couldn't remember who they were for a moment.
"Mother, they are from the Qin family!" Yi Mobao said in a low voice, pointing at one of the oldest white-bearded old men who looked to be in his eighties or nineties, and said, "I remember this man. He was the elder of the Qin family and the younger brother of Patriarch Qin Xue. His name is Qin Zhang."
"I heard before that after the people of the Qin family were thrown into jail, some people stood up to accuse the head of the Qin family, Qin Xue, saying that the head of the Qin family had indeed done a lot of treasonous things, and it seemed that the leader at the time was this person named Qin Zhang!" Shen Yubao followed.
"It seems that the person who comes here has bad intentions." Yi Qianhuan said this, but there was no fear in his eyes.
She wanted to see how the Qin family would work with the Queen Mother to help Helian Ziyu turn the tide.
When Bei Yunting saw the Queen Mother coming, he immediately asked someone to prepare a seat for her: "Mother, you just said that Helian Guoshen is your godson?"
"Yes. In fact, I had already secretly accepted Helian Ziyu as my godson long before the Zhantian Conference. But I was worried that Ziyu would make too many enemies and bring trouble to me, so I kept it a secret."
The Queen Mother smiled and continued, "Moreover, I was worried that Ziyu would do something wrong, so I gave him the Dragon Shadow Guard that I had. But I just heard that someone actually suspected Ziyu? I watched this child grow up, how could I not know what kind of person he is? Even the Uncrowned Mirror was found by me and the new Patriarch of the Qin Family together with Ziyu from the National God's Mansion, how could it be wrong?"
The Queen Mother's words were like a bomb, successfully shocking everyone present.
Shen Yaosi frowned and stepped forward, "Empress Dowager, I did see yesterday that the Uncrowned Mirror was summoned by the God of Italy through a formation."
Yi Qianhuan glanced at Shen Yaosi with some surprise.
Shen Yaosi was too bold. He said this obviously to challenge the Queen Mother on purpose.
I had heard before that Shen Yaosi was a stubborn person. Yi Qianhuan didn't believe it at first, but now it seems that all the rumors about him were true.
However, people with true character like Shen Yaosi are indeed rare.
The Queen Mother looked at Shen Yaosi deeply and said, "Yes, Ziyu found the Uncrowned Mirror yesterday and temporarily placed it in the Qin family for safekeeping. Later, he said that someone had activated the ancient formation without authorization, and hurriedly took the Dragon Shadow Guard to check. I and the head of the Qin family were guarding the Uncrowned Mirror at the Qin family. Unexpectedly, someone suddenly summoned the Uncrowned Mirror away. But no matter who is behind it, I can be sure that the Uncrowned Mirror is indeed owned by Ziyu."
"Yes, I can prove this. Unless one is a recognized candidate for the national god, it is impossible for an ordinary person to find the Uncrowned Mirror. From this point, it can be seen that Helian National God is the real candidate for the national god." Qin Zhang said.
"Your Majesty, everything I said is true. Don't you believe it?" The Queen Mother looked at Bei Yunting and asked.
Bei Yunting immediately forced a smile: "Mother, you are really good at joking. How could I not believe you? But this recognition of relatives is not a trivial matter. Mother should have informed me in advance."
"It is indeed my fault. However, Ziyu contacted me for the sake of status in the first place. If I were not worried that Ziyu was wronged today, I would not have come here to say this."
While the Queen Mother was speaking, she looked at Yi Qianhuan and said, "Yi Qianhuan, I can understand how much you love your son, but both I and the Patriarch of the Qin Family are witnesses. If you are still dissatisfied with anything, you can just say it out loud and tell me!"
After the Queen Mother said this, all the civil and military officials present fell silent.
They all believed that today's matter had been settled.
After all, the Queen Mother has spoken up, and no one will come out to refute her.
It’s a pity that these civil and military officials were afraid of the Queen Mother, but Yi Qianhuan was not.
"Your Majesty, everything must be based on evidence. Just a few words from your Majesty cannot be taken as the truth. I am not convinced by what happened today." Yi Qianhuan said he was not convinced, but his back was completely straight. He was like a pine tree, graceful and elegant, with a frivolous and arrogant look in his eyes.
The Queen Mother did not expect Yi Qianhuan to be so unruly. She slapped the armrest in anger and said, "Yi Qianhuan, you are so presumptuous! How dare you disrespect me!"
"Helian Ziyu will stop at nothing and at any price to achieve his goal. Before, the head of the Qin Xue family was framed. Qin Zhang pinned the unfounded charges on the head of the Qin Xue family. What he said cannot be trusted. The Empress Dowager is old after all. It is not impossible that she was deceived by Qin Zhang." Ji Chilian said at this time.
