Chapter 360 Oh, So It Was a Hongmen Banquet
However, what really surprised everyone was not that the old concubine came, but that she was wearing plain white clothes today. One must know that today is the emperor's birthday, and she actually wore white clothes. What does this mean?This is disrespectful!
The old concubine didn't put on any makeup, she was dressed in plain white clothes, and she walked in without turning her eyes. When she passed by Duke Ding's seat, she gave him a meaningful look.

Ding Guogong nodded at her almost imperceptibly, and the small movements between the two were hardly seen by anyone.

It wasn't until the old concubine was seated that everyone came back to their senses, and the voices of discussion resumed, even louder than others.

When Xiao Yu and Jun Rong came in, they felt that the atmosphere was not right, and they looked at each other without speaking.But secretly raised his vigilance.

"Your Majesty is here—"

"The Regent arrives—"

Wuyou yelled, and the people in the hall became quiet again, they got up and kowtowed in the direction of the door.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live—"

"My lord, thousand years old, thousand years old——"

Jun Rong and Xiao Yu walked to the front one after the other, followed by Han Yi and Ning Zhao.

"All gentlemen, you are free of courtesy, and your body——"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

The officials stood up and took their seats, and Xiao Yu also sat down. As a result, she saw the old concubine sitting diagonally across from the corner of her eye, and she couldn't help being taken aback.

Why is she here?Also dressed so like wearing sackcloth and filial piety.

An ominous premonition came to mind again, Xiao Yu's eyes sank, it seemed that the old concubine was talking about today.

Jun Rong also saw the old concubine, the smile on his lips faded, and he raised his voice and asked: "It is rare for the old concubine to come out and walk, why is she dressed so plainly? I'm afraid it's inappropriate for you to dress like this on this occasion, right?"

The old concubine Shi Shiran got up from her seat, walked unhurriedly to the center of the hall and stood still.

"It's really inappropriate for a courtier's wife to wear this at His Majesty's birthday banquet, but there is a reason for it. Maybe His Majesty won't think so after hearing it."

The eyes of the old concubine fell on Xiao Yu's body.

Jun Rong frowned, always felt that there was something in her words, that the visitor was not kind, and said with a downcast face: "No matter what your reason is, it is disrespectful to wear white clothes at my birthday banquet, are you cursing me?"

"My wife dare not."

The old concubine knelt down to Junrong.Her shoulders were still straight, "It's a very important matter, and my wife wanted to wait until the birthday banquet is almost over, but since your majesty asked first, my wife will explain to you now."

Jun Rong's breath sank, and his eyes were stern, "I don't want to hear it, someone, come and drag her out for me!"

His reaction was a little violent, and the officials who watched the fun started whispering.

"Your Majesty, the long night is boring. Why don't you listen to the old concubine? If it's justifiable, Your Majesty will let her go."

Duke Ding also stood up.

Well, father and daughter go into battle together.

A smile appeared on Xiao Yu's lips.

In the beginning, [-]% of Jun Rong's anger was pretended, but now that Duke Ding dared to stand up, his anger changed from [-]% to [-]%, "What do you two want to do?"

"Your Majesty, calm down. I have no intention of offending Your Majesty. It's just that the old concubine found me a few days ago and confessed some things. After hearing this, I feel that it is necessary for Your Majesty and the whole world to listen."

"I--"

"Your Majesty is also very curious, what is the old concubine going to say?" Ning Guogong also came out and stood beside Ding Guogong.

"Everyone, Your Majesty doesn't want to hear it. As courtiers, you don't know how to advance or retreat, but are aggressive. Why are you planning to rebel?"

Xiao Yu stood up, and all eyes immediately focused on her.

No need to say much at this moment, Xiao Yu also understood that they were coming for her.

Jun Rong said to Wuyou beside him: "Go and send Shang Meng in, and drag them out for me!"

"Yes……"

Wuyou glanced at the three people in the hall, then walked out quickly.

As soon as he got to the door, he was stopped by someone.

A few court ladies and eunuchs standing at the door suddenly raised their heads, with a fierce look on their faces, they pulled out their daggers from their sleeves and blocked his way.

"You—what do you want to do?!"

Worry-free exclaimed, and took two steps back.

"Squeak-"

The gate of Xiefang Palace was closed, and now the officials who could still watch the show became nervous.

"What is this for?"

"I don't know, what exactly is the old princess doing?"

"It's not really going to rebel, is it?"

In the uproar of the whole hall, Jun Rong jumped up against the case, and angrily said: "You are so courageous, colluded with each other in front of me, and your intentions are wrong, do you take me seriously?"

Duke Ding and Duke Ning exchanged glances, and Duke Rong, who had been demoted as Uncle Gong Lu, also came out and walked over.

"I just wanted to tell His Majesty a story. Why is Your Majesty so resistant? Could it be that Your Majesty knew about it beforehand?" Uncle Gong Lu didn't know where he got the courage to face Junrong.

The hands under Jun Rong's sleeves were tightly clenched into fists. It seems that a big battle is inevitable today, but I don't know what they are going to say?
The old concubine sneered and said, "No one knows about this matter except my wife... Oh no, there should be another person who knows about it."

Her vicious eyes like poisonous snakes fell on Xiao Yu's body, she pointed her finger, and said sharply: "Xiao Yu, do you still want to pretend nothing happened? You still want to deceive His Majesty, deceive the world so much when?"

Xiao Yu looked at him amusedly, "It's better for the old concubine to speak clearly. What am I hiding? Why don't I know?"

"You are not the blood of the regent at all, but a bastard who doesn't know where it came from!"

When this statement came out, the whole audience was shocked.

Jun Rong's eyes widened, "What?"

The old concubine looked at the astonished faces of the crowd, and showed an expression that was almost revenge, "You were all deceived by him, and even I was kept in the dark by him before! Fortunately, the heavens have eyes and let me find it." The Wen woman who delivered the baby back then felt ashamed in her heart. She dared not see me for many years and hid in the countryside. She suffered from the torment of her conscience. come out."

Speaking of the excitement, she actually stood up, faced Xiao Yu and said coldly: "When I gave birth, a daughter happened to be born in Wen Po's family."

"Wait—what do you mean you happen to have a daughter?"

"Did the old concubine make a mistake? Or did she give birth to a daughter, have you never heard of it?"

"Are you stupid? The old concubine has two children in total, and now she stands here and says that she wants to expose the identity of the regent, that girl can only be—"

"That's right, I gave birth to a daughter back then, and I died not long after I was born. At that time, I passed out due to dystocia and hemorrhage. Mrs. Wen thought of her daughter in her family. She had a plan, so she married her daughter with mine. The daughter has switched."
