Chapter 397
King Zhao was silent for a moment, then happily accepted this suggestion.
Anyway, the problem has been solved by my father, and it’s just the people who are left.
Then, he said slowly, "Then guess why I specially want to take Ruirui out for a walk?"
This is what I said...
Ji Yunqing couldn't think of it, but based on his years of experience in reading comprehension and the context, he came up with a shocking answer.
She asked in confusion, "Is this related to Ruirui?"
"No, that can't be. How old is that child? How could he be related to this matter?"
She was neither the one who made the woman pregnant, nor was she the one who became pregnant. She probably couldn't even climb over the threshold of the palace gate, let alone the one who spread the rumors.
Ji Yunqing thought about it and felt that he was still confident.
King Zhao sneered: "That's not necessarily true, he is very capable!"
Next, King Zhao told how he received the letter and how he found out that the person who wrote the letter was Ruirui.
But he did not mention that he took Ruirui to the palace today to clarify his innocence in front of all the civil and military officials in the court.
It can be explained with just one sentence: "The boy testified on the spot, proving that it was all a misunderstanding."
If I were to talk about such a big scene, it would probably scare the inexperienced woman in my arms.
As for Ruirui himself, King Zhao saw that he was full of life and seemed to be fine.
At the court meeting
When he went there with a child, he attracted the attention of many officials.
King Lie even mocked him, "Why did my brother bring this child here? Is there something special about this child?"
It was Ruirui’s first time to come to such a place. It was so huge and magnificent.
There are a lot of people.
After the emperor took his seat, King Zhao explained the whole story in front of everyone and presented the evidence.
——That letter.
The old emperor didn't believe it.
Not only did the old emperor not believe it, no one else believed it either.
How can a little kid be so capable?
This is ridiculous!
Ruirui listened to the adults' discussions in a daze, then her eyes lit up when she saw the letter he wrote.
He even made the letter paper himself!
Rui Rui was a little surprised, but also a little happy. She touched her slightly bulging belly and asked, "Does father know that I have a baby in my belly?"
This bulging belly was inflated by him with great effort!
——Early in the morning, the child was taken out before he woke up or had eaten. The food he ate last night had long been digested.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone turned their heads and looked at this little guy with surprise.
Could it be that these words were not taught by King Zhao?
He was a tiny person, and he tried hard to keep a kind expression on his face while gently stroking his little belly.
A child's clear voice echoed in the hall: "Xiangxiang, be good! Now that your father knows you, he will definitely be very happy."
King Zhao was caught off guard: "Xiangxiang?"
Ruirui responded with a proud voice: "Yes, it's Xiangrui. My name is Ruirui and his name is Xiangxiang. Father, can we call our child this name?"
King Zhao tried to hold back, but in the end he couldn't.
"…Don't talk nonsense."
Do you listen to what you said? Is this right?
The officials looked at each other from afar and said: If you put it that way, it does not seem like what King Zhao would teach the child.
The old emperor thought this was too outrageous, but when he looked at the child's brave and sincere words and thought about how he looked the last time he saw him, he felt that the child might really think so.
So the old emperor asked Ruirui a few questions.
Ruirui took a look and found that this was also an acquaintance.
He answered immediately and loudly.
"My father said that if two people sleep in the same bed, it is possible to get pregnant. At that time, my father and I slept together..."
Hearing this answer, everyone couldn't help but look at King Zhao.
It seems like, it's normal for children to misunderstand this?
At the same time, I feel somewhat fortunate that my own children do not have so many problems and would not secretly write such letters.
Suddenly I feel that my children are quite filial.
King Zhao was worried that the clarification was not strong enough, so he reminded: "You can ask the child to write a word on the spot and see how it goes."
How can such a young child write?
That’s right, who wrote that letter if you can’t write?
The old emperor had read the letter a long time ago, and now he also wanted to see the letter written by the child.
Soon, palace servants brought in tables and chairs of suitable size, laid out paper and pens, and had already ground ink.
Ruirui stood there with her small body, picked up the brush, dipped the tip of the brush into ink, and quickly wrote a line of words.
He was very impressive and all the officials could not help but feel excited, but then they saw a bunch of ugly stuff!
Although the handwriting is better than that in the letter, it is still childish.
For these experienced writers, they can tell at a glance that it was indeed written by the same person.
The matter is confirmed.
After Ruirui finished writing, he saw so many people looking at him with complicated eyes, and he couldn't help but touch his belly.
Suddenly, he screamed and said crisply: "Ah! Grandfather, I forgot, I think I slept with you for a night during those days."
Everyone present: "..."
Old Emperor: “…”
In an instant, the old emperor decisively believed in King Zhao's innocence.
You still have to put yourself in their shoes to understand who is innocent!
He announced succinctly: "This matter ends here, no one is allowed to make irresponsible comments"
"King Zhao, go back and explain this matter clearly to Ruirui. Ruirui, you are still a child and you are not pregnant!"
Even if it wasn't a child, the one who was pregnant wouldn't be a man.
Give up, you'll never be able to get pregnant in your lifetime.
When Ruirui heard this devastating news, she felt like the sky was falling.
His round eyes were full of disbelief: "No Xiangxiang?"
Seeing how devastated this child is, who would have the heart to continue to hit him?
The old emperor was extremely cruel: "No Xiangxiang!"
For a moment, the whole place was silent, but everyone present seemed to hear the sound of a heart breaking.
The main reason is that this child has such rich expressions.
Not stage fright yet.
Some officials keenly noticed that in such an unfamiliar environment, even with so many people staring at him, the child did not show any fear on his face, and his hands did not shake when he was writing.
It is really rare.
You know, there will be candidates in the examination room who are so scared that they can't answer the test papers, or their scores are far below their usual level.
Some of them even had black faces, and the younger generations in their family would be scared to tears on the spot.
So how did King Zhao teach his children?
Do you have any secrets you can share?
Now that we have finished talking about King Zhao, it’s time to get down to business.
As a result, before the court meeting was over, the lively child was already sitting at King Zhao's feet, holding onto his trouser legs and falling asleep.
Her little mouth was still pouting stubbornly, and it was obvious that she was sad for Xiangxiang.
Fortunately, the old emperor did not bother with the ignorant child and asked King Zhao to send the child to the back hall to rest temporarily.
Wait until the court meeting is over and take him away.
