Chapter 1067: One Step Wrong
Compared to the haze of Fengyi Palace, Jiurao is particularly leisurely and at ease.
She didn't need to think about the choice of the witch queen. After she came back from the Priest's Hall, she didn't have to worry.
Since it has been confirmed that Ji Huangyu is not in danger, whether the witch empress accepts the threat or does not accept the threat, the result is nothing more than whether the charges around Ji Huangyu can be washed away.
As for the stolen punishment, didn’t Ji Huangyu say it?
The person in this world who dares to stolen him has not been born yet. If that is the case, what should she worry about?
And she was almost sure that the Queen of the Witch would definitely compromise.
In order to kill Ji Huangyu, she abandoned her own child. Can she accept such a thing?
But Empress Wu’s compromise is also based on the anger and embarrassment that are struggling.
Seeing the conditions on the letter, Queen Wu struggled all afternoon. She absolutely didn't want to watch the child who had finally come to see the mistake.
But if the child in her belly is safe and sound, he must wash away Ji Huangyu's charges and pardon Ji Huangyu's stolen.
He asked the emperor to issue an order personally to give Ji Huangyu a name for being innocent.
This matter sounds like a simple condition for one life to exchange for one life, but it is not that simple at all. If you do this seriously, the person who framed Ji Huangyu and the palace maid would have to be charged with the crime of slandering the prince.
The person who saw Ji Huangyu and the palace maid appearing on the bed was the commander of the Imperial Guard and the cousin of the Wu Empress.
The crime of falsely accusing the prince was not serious, and the crime of falsely accusing the next high priest was even more serious, which could be regarded as blasphemy to the gods. In this way, Wu Peng had to apologize for his death. Even if he did not implicate the Wu family, the impact this incident had on the Wu family was unimaginable.
Empress Wu sat on the edge of the bed and thought for the whole afternoon, her eyebrows were deeply locked and her eyebrows were filled with gloomy eyes.
She wanted to discuss such a big thing with her brother, but she had just returned from the Wu family. If she hurriedly summoned her brother, what would be the speculation outside?
The royal palace is the palace of the Ji family, not from the Wu family. She cannot regard the king as nothing, and she cannot regard the palace rules as nothing.
At this time, the Queen of Witch fully realized a fact - one step is wrong, one step is wrong.
Even though the Wu family is powerful now, it still cannot stop the danger hidden in the dark. However, it was too late for her to react to this at this time.
The only thing she needs to consider now is to save the child, abandon Wu Peng, release Ji Huangyu, or give up the child, so that the original plan can go smoothly?
Such a dilemma did not give her much time. That night, the Witch Queen found that she had seen Hong on her body - the fear of losing her child made her unable to think more, and hurriedly ordered someone to invite the King.
The Queen of the Witch did not even dare to tell the king that she was threatened by others. If she wanted a child, she could not anger the person who was slaughtering behind her. If the other party did not give her an antidote in anger, the king would not be able to repay her child's life.
The Wu family had not yet thought that in just one night, something happened in the palace that caught them off guard, and the fate of the Wu family would also undergo earth-shaking changes.
The king was furious: "False the prince? False the next high priest chosen by the gods! Wu Peng, you are so brave!"
