Chapter 160 Overnight, the Wei Family Is Finished?

This heavy rain lasted for three hours before it stopped.

The people went from cheering to crying.

They firmly believed that the drought was over and that the hard days of so many years would finally come to an end.

That night, Shen Ningning was treated as a distinguished guest!

The emperor personally welcomed her, drove the carriage for her, and brought her into the imperial city, which was a supreme honor.

In the magnificent hall, civil and military officials gathered together, and the table was filled with fine wine and delicacies.

Shen Ningning was rewarded and sat directly between the emperor and the prince, making all the women envious.

When the emperor asked the little guy what reward he wanted, Shen Ningning put down the spoon for soup.

She blinked her big eyes twice obediently: "Uncle Emperor, can you take my grandma and the wolves into the palace? My grandma has never seen what the palace looks like."

Last Mid-Autumn Festival, the little guy was going to bring his family into the palace.

But by chance, Grandma Qin didn't come in in the end.

When the emperor heard this, he immediately waved his hand and ordered the commander of the imperial guards, Lord Lu.

"Lord Lu, you lead people to pick her up in person, and be sure to invite Old Lady Qin to me."

The Grand Tutor asked hurriedly: "Princess Funing, your wolves won't bite people, right?"

Shen Ningning laughed like a silver bell: "No, as long as I'm here, they won't hurt anyone."

Commander Lu accepted the order and immediately went out of the palace to pick them up.

At this moment, the eunuch came in with an embarrassed look on his face, knelt on the ground and said: "Your Majesty, Concubine Li wants to see you."

The emperor was ordering people to serve Shen Ningning good sweet milk.

Hearing this, his expression suddenly turned cold: "Didn't I ask her to reflect on her mistakes in the palace? Why did she come to spoil the fun!"

The emperor not only knew about Wei Yufu pretending to be a Fu Nu, but also knew that Minister Wei bribed a master to make him cheat in the rain-making ceremony!

Fortunately, God has eyes, and the person Minister Wei found was a charlatan, not a master at all!

The emperor could not tolerate this. The Wei family had been occupying the title of lucky girl because Wei Yufu was born on that rainy night four years ago.

But it didn't rain once!

So he withheld three years of salary from Wei Shangshu to help the poor people.

He also ordered Wei Yufu and Concubine Li to reflect on their own mistakes, and to adopt Mo Changgong to the always gentle Concubine Rong to raise the child.

When he heard that Concubine Li wanted to see him, the emperor was disgusted and did not hide it.

The eunuch said helplessly: "The servant also persuaded, saying that the emperor was busy, but Concubine Li refused to leave and knelt outside."

"Not only that, the sixth prince also came and insisted on kneeling with Concubine Li to admit his mistakes."

The emperor could certainly be cruel to Concubine Li.

However, when he heard that Mo Changgong, who was disabled, was also kneeling outside, he could not sit still.

He stood up suddenly, frowning: "What?!"

The emperor's angry shout made the ministers who were toasting each other quiet down.

"Go and ask Changgong to go back. This matter has nothing to do with him!" The emperor flicked his sleeves, a little irritable.

He always felt indebted to Mo Changgong.

Because his favorite son Mo Lingwei cut the tendons of Mo Changgong's hands and feet, making him a cripple.

But the emperor was reluctant to punish Mo Lingwei, so he naturally advised Mo Changgong to hold back.

Mo Changgong was obedient and did not resist, and because of this, the emperor felt even more guilty.

The eunuch was embarrassed: "I said it, but the Sixth Prince refused to leave!"

Mo Lingwei heard this, raised his teacup, and pursed his thin lips to sneer.

Shen Ningning turned to look at him with big eyes, and Mo Lingwei handed her a few more fried dumplings she liked.

He leaned over and whispered, "Just watch the show for a while. I'm afraid you'll have to act pitiful again to win your father's sympathy. But you are the protagonist today. If you find him noisy, tell me and I'll ask him to get out."

Mo Lingwei said it straightforwardly, with an overbearing and domineering aura.

Shen Ningning couldn't help but smile secretly. She gave him a yellow rice cake.

"Let him perform. Brother, you eat this. It's sweet and delicious."

Mo Lingwei paused, frowned and looked at the rice cake on the plate.

How should he tell the little guy that he doesn't like sweet food at all.

But, since it was given by Shen Ningning, Mo Lingwei ate it anyway.

Facing her expectant eyes, he gave her two words of praise without hesitation: "Not bad."

While the two were talking, the emperor had softened his heart and asked Concubine Li to bring Mo Changgong in to talk.

Sure enough, when Concubine Li entered, her face was pale and haggard, her eyes were red, and she had obviously cried.

She knelt on the ground, tears streaming down her face: "Your Majesty, I really didn't know what my brother did. You can punish him in any way you want. Please don't let Changgong leave me because I have served you for so many years."

"I only have this one child. If you send him away, won't that mean I'm going to die?"

Li Fei cried sadly and beautifully, kneeling on the ground, letting everyone see the sadness of a mother.

Mo Changgong followed her, also with a sad face: "Father, mother has always been dutiful. This time it was all because of my uncle. She is in the harem, how could she know about my uncle's arrangements? Please understand!"

What the mother and son said moved everyone. The emperor frowned silently and did not speak for the time being.

Mo Lingwei knew that he might be soft-hearted again.

He sneered, supported his side face with his hand, and said lazily: "It's so boring."

Shen Ningning felt that Mo Lingwei was so pitiful.

This is probably not the first time that the emperor has been soft-hearted. My brother does not have the protection of his mother like Mo Changgong.

The little guy immediately whispered: "That's right, it's really boring for him to be like this, brother, I stand on your side!"

Mo Lingwei hates whoever, she doesn't like either!

At this moment, Xie Mingxu's indifferent eyes kept observing Shen Ningning's expression.

I found that the little girl looked indignant, as if she didn't like Concubine Li and Mo Changgong.

Xie Mingxu thought of the experience of adventure with her in Fashan Temple, and only felt that the little girl was cute and smart.

Since she didn't like the people of the Wei family, he wouldn't be polite.

Xie Mingxu stood up and bowed, saying: "Your Majesty, I have something to tell you about Wei Shangshu."

Concubine Li's crying stopped abruptly, and she turned her head to look at Xie Mingxu, her eyes full of suspicion.

The one who spoke was the prime minister's eldest son, but she thought that the Wei family and the Xie family had always kept to themselves.

The emperor said calmly: "You say."

Xie Mingxu then told the story of encountering bandits pretending to be monks in Fashan Temple and being subdued in the end.

He also said that their identities were not simple, and they were the same group of bandits who were captured a while ago.

Xie Mingxu did not mention Shen Ningning's name, fearing that she would be retaliated by the Wei family.

Instead, he said in a light tone: "The bandits mentioned that the reason they had news from the court was because Wei Sanye cooperated with them and provided them with the court's deployment arrangements."

Concubine Li was shocked and said, "Impossible!"

The bandits were obviously dead, and Mr. Du, who was responsible for the crime, had long since turned into a corpse.

How could this case be turned up again!

The emperor's face was livid: "Really? Where are the people you arrested now?"

"This is a serious matter. I will temporarily lock them up in the dungeon of the Dali Temple."

The emperor stood up immediately: "Bring the people to the side hall, I will interrogate them personally!"

After that, he turned to face Shen Ningning, and smiled a little: "The emperor uncle has to deal with some serious matters now. Ningning, little girl, you eat first. If there is anything not enough, let the palace maid add it for you."

Shen Ningning nodded obediently: "I know, uncle!"

The emperor left with a gloomy expression. When he passed by Concubine Li, he didn't even look at her.

All the ministers looked at each other in dismay.

Looking at this situation, will the Wei family be executed overnight?
