Chapter 74 The Queen's Collapse

Just as a group of future royal granddaughters-in-law were struggling to remember the royal family tree in the palace, a major event happened in the court.

The remake of the account books by the Ministry of Household Affairs in the capital city has come to an end. During the remake of the account books, a large amount of corruption and deficits were discovered. The amount made the emperor furious. Even Sun Lao Shangshu, who had gone to Nanjing for retirement, failed to keep the evening festival and was dismissed by the emperor. ransacked home.

After Sun Shangshu was sentenced to autumn, the whole family was exiled to Lingnan.

So the emperor decided to remake the account books of the six other departments. Locally, the Beijing household department sent people to the Nanjing household department to redo the account books of Nanzhili first, and Jinyiwei would also send people to assist.

In the end, Jin Yiwei really found out a big case: Seven years ago, the prince took his favorite Liangdi to Jiangnan for a visit in the name of inspecting salt.

In fact, this kind of play, the palace just turned a blind eye and didn't care much about it.

But the problem is that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince himself had a good time this trip, but the money used by Jiangnan officials for his enjoyment was embezzled from the river repair funds of the year, so that in the rainy season, the river embankment collapsed, and more than 40 people in five counties Several villages were affected, more than 20 people died, and more than [-] Dazhou households were displaced.

On November 35th of the [-]th year of Jingning, the empress died of illness in Weiyang Palace. Before her death, the emperor named the deposed prince as the king of Shenjun, which was regarded as the last bit of love between the emperor and the empress.

But it can also be said that the queen was finally pissed off.

The timing of this incident was too coincidental. Both the queen and the emperor knew in their hearts that there must be someone manipulating it.

However, the matter has come to this point, and she can no longer recover.

The crown prince had been deposed six years ago, perhaps since then, there has been no room for redemption.

The queen fought her last breath, but she still couldn't save her. I don't know if she was willing to gamble and admit defeat when she closed her eyes, or if she would die with regret.

The ministers in the DPRK felt that the anger that had been suppressed in their hearts was finally released.

The mistake His Royal Highness made seven years ago became the last straw that completely crushed the East Palace.

In order to nail down this case, the only dude Ningyuan in the Zhenbeihou Mansion, who has been busy for more than half a month, was sleeping soundly in the Tianzihao wing room of the Yichun Building. Huang Huaide from the Pingyang Princess Mansion rushed in and woke him up: "Get up quickly It's gone! The empress has collapsed!"

"What?" Ning Yuan sat up with a pair of dark circles under his eyes, looking at Huang Huaide out of focus.

Huang Huaide then yelled at him: "Azhao asked me to inform you that the empress has passed away! He should have entered the palace with His Royal Highness King Su and the princess now!"

"Hey!" Ning Yuan then grinned, "The empress collapsed, wouldn't she be unable to marry within a year? My grandmother can finally rest for a year, hahahaha!"

"Your Majesty needs to know that you can still laugh at this time, so I don't want to chop off your head! It's better to chop with a blunt knife!"

"Hey, isn't there nobody here?" Ning Yuan shook his head, still not paying much attention.

"You change your clothes and leave quickly! During the national mourning period, people know that you are still sleeping in the brothel, and you are not afraid that Master Hou will beat you after he comes back from the north!" Huang Huaide waved his hands with a look of disgust.

in the palace.

The royal granddaughters-in-law who are still in the training camp collectively went to Weiyang Palace to mourn for the empress.

Song Qingyue prepared several veils rubbed with chili seeds in advance. She felt that she was so hot that her eyes were going to go blind. She was really crying. She cried when she was hurt by the chili. It was so miserable, and it shocked Fang Yilan, Guo Yuner, and Meng Yuyan's future sisters-in-law.

After crying for about an hour, suddenly a little Huangmen who looked familiar came over and said in a low voice: "The girl is weak in the first place, His Royal Highness is afraid that you will break your body from crying, so he specially sent a servant to help you to the wing room." Take a break and cry again."

The knife-like eyes of Meng Yuyan next to her immediately came over, and Song Qingyue felt that the quasi-granddaughters-in-law around her were all sour, and Li Zhao was trying to bring hatred to her!

She hurriedly put down the veil, sniffed and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your concern, I can handle it, and I'm really fine! You call him back, I'm not so delicate!"

The little Huangmen didn't leave, and still persuaded: "Miss, don't be a slave! You are like this, after you go back, you won't be able to do business!"

Song Qingyue looked at Xiao Huangmen who was about to cry, sighed, and said, "Okay, I'll go and rest for a while, just for a while."

She knew what kind of temperament Li Zhao was. He grew up in the military camp, and no one could disobey his orders. If Song Qingyue refused to take a rest for a while, this little Huangmen might not be able to serve under Li Zhao anymore. ruined his future.

Song Qingyue didn't want to be this villain, she just wanted to rest for a while, and she could do whatever she could.

It was only when she arrived at the side hall that she was not the only one who was helped to rest.

But most of them are old lords who are very old. Only one noble lady who is similar to her age sits behind the translucent double-sided embroidered screen, sobbing intermittently, and there is a very bitter cry.

This is really sad!

Feng Qi went to inquire about it, and came back and said in a low voice: "Girl, this is Miss He Liu from Ningyuan Hou's Mansion."

"The one who was given the marriage to Tai... the third son of Duke Shen?"

Feng Qi nodded, and continued to speak in a low voice: "The third son's biological mother is the Di Liang who was taken to the south of the Yangtze River by King Shen Jun seven years ago, and she died suddenly last night."

"Oh." Song Qingyue sneered.

The one who was wrong was obviously a man, but the one who died in the end was a woman.

This kind of foolish prince still expects him to inherit the throne in the future?Let's go home early and cool off
But even if the future of the third son is completely ruined, Miss He Liu still wants to marry him.

The imperial decree has been issued, and she has no way out.

It was indeed something to cry about.

Song Qingyue leaned on the couch, closed her eyes and meditated, knelt for more than an hour, her legs were so numb that she almost lost consciousness, Feng Qi rubbed her legs for her, and said softly: "Girl, His Royal Highness misses you, you should be happy .”

She suddenly opened her eyes.

No, Miss He Liu is not the only one who has no way out. They, the imperial grandchildren, have no way out.

Miss He Liu just saw the end before herself.
