There is a black lotus in the deep palace

Chapter 118
Li Baoyuan is a smart man.

It's not unreasonable to enter the palace cleanly at the age of ten, from a small toilet cleaning eunuch to the chief executive of the imperial study next to the emperor.

He has a clever mind, sharp eyesight, and knows how to judge the situation wisely and protect himself.

The work that should be done is beautiful, the work that should not be done is done beautifully, the work that should not be done is not a glance, the work that should be known is clear, the ears that should not be known should be plugged, the work that should not be known, should be pretending to be confused, and should be smart.

For so many years, Emperor Jingyuan has relied heavily on him. This person has means, talent, brain power and knowledge, and he never disappoints him in the things he confesses.

But this time, the eunuch whom he had relied on all his life was about to disappoint him.

After thinking about it, Li Baoyuan felt that the prince should know about the affairs in the palace.

If the eyes are vicious, he doesn't think so, it's just that he can't understand what the empress mother and son are doing.

The emperor couldn't understand the words in those words, but he could understand them.

He is very clear about how the Queen has treated His Highness the Crown Prince all these years.

He knew everything about the mother and son, their ambitions, and their viciousness, but he just didn't talk about it.

I didn't say it before because I didn't threaten the emperor.

Now I choose to say it because the queen dared to attack the emperor.

That dark, unclear pill could fool the emperor, but not him.

Those who don't know what it is yet.

The more Li Baoyuan thought about it, the more frightened he became, so he immediately edited a book and secretly sent it out.

After being a great eunuch for so many years, such a small matter can still be done.

……

Although Li Baoyuan didn't have the right to expedite it by [-] miles, the letter arrived in the south of the Yangtze River quite quickly, and it only took less than ten days.

It was about the same time as the imperial decree ordering the prince to return to the palace.

Early in the morning, Xia Houjue and his party received the order and were about to leave when they saw a mysterious letter sent by Hei Yanshen.

"Your Highness, it's an urgent letter from Father-in-Law Li Baoyuan!"

When Xia Houjue heard it, his expression darkened immediately, and he quickly opened the letter.

After quickly browsing through the contents of the letter, his complexion became extremely ugly, with bruised veins on his forehead, the hand holding the letter trembled slightly, his fists gradually clenched, and his knuckles turned white.

"What's the matter? What happened?" Tang Wanning put down the rope and came over to look.

Xia Houjing handed the letter directly to her.

Tang Wanning was also stunned when she saw it: "What? Feed the emperor the pills, the emperor favored him overnight..."

The following content was a bit unsightly, and she was embarrassed and didn't want to read any more.

Obviously, the meaning of this letter is to tell the prince that the empress pleases the emperor with some shameful things.

But instead of blaming the emperor, the emperor happily accepted it.

Not to mention accepting it, what kind of wine pool and meat forest are still in the harem, and I don’t know how to maintain it at a lot of age, let alone check it.

"Eh..." Tang Wanning opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.

The daughter-in-law always has some unspeakable things to say about her father-in-law, and this father-in-law is still the emperor.

Xia Houjue tore the letter into powder with a dark face, and got on his horse.

"Go back to Beijing!"

"Yes!"

Tang Wanning responded and got into the carriage.

It just so happened that the victims of the disaster have settled down, everything has been packed, and there is no epidemic, so it is time for them to return to Beijing.

The only regret is that she didn't have time to dress up as a man and go out to have fun, didn't go to the brothel to see the girls, didn't go to listen to the little songs, and didn't go to the street to appreciate the Jiangnan style.

Along the way, he did nothing but work for that bastard Xia Houjue.

It's a pity to think about it, but there is nothing to regret.

Hey... Leaning against the wall of the carriage, Tang Wanning felt a little lonely.

Next time, next time for sure.

The next time she comes out with that bastard Xia Houjue, she wants to lie down comfortably, and she wants to be a salted fish that can eat, play and pick up girls.

……

Because the emperor's imperial edict summoned them, the group was in a hurry on the road.

It took less than ten days to arrive in Beijing after a journey of ten days or so.

Tang Wanning sat in the carriage for only two days and was about to fall apart. In the next few days, she stopped riding in the carriage after being beaten to death, and changed into men's clothes to ride with Xia Houjue.

Early in the morning at the end of September, Xia Houjue and his party hurried into Beijing.

After entering the palace, before he had time to change his clothes, Xia Houjue was hurriedly summoned by the emperor.

In the imperial study room, several cabinet ministers were present.

In front of the ministers, Emperor Jing Yuan smashed all the evidence sent by the queen on the ground in front of Xia Houjue.

"Rebel! Rebel!"

"It's just delivering relief supplies. You've been there for two whole months. What have you been doing these days?"

"If your mother hadn't told me the truth, I would still be kept in the dark, you pervert!"

Xia Houjue's heart was cold and hard, but his face was full of sincerity and fear.

"Father calm down, son and minister went all the way to the south of the Yangtze River for disaster relief, resettling the victims, and distributing relief supplies. They didn't dare to stop for a moment. They didn't dare to return to Beijing until all the victims were settled. Why did the father say such a thing!"

"You dare not stop! Yes! You dare not stop! Why did you stay in a small prefect courtyard for so many days! You dare not stop, who did those extravagant and lustful things? You made my face Where to put it!"

"Nizi! How dare you talk back!"

Xia Houjue picked up the evidence on the ground with a "bewildered face" and looked at it, and immediately defended himself confidently.

"My son is wronged!"

"Where did the father get the evidence, I feel very wronged!"

"I also ask the father to investigate thoroughly, and return my son's innocence!"

Emperor Jingyuan was so angry that he could no longer stand still.

"The testimonials of the prefect of Chuzhou have all been handed in front of me, and you still dare to quibble with such ironclad evidence!"

"Your words and deeds are clearly written by others! If you have never met before, who will wrong you?"

Xia Houjue's eyes were firm, and he still insisted that he was wronged, and asked for a thorough investigation.

Emperor Jing Yuan only felt dizzy and smoke coming from his chest.

"Come... come, someone! Let the prince, this bastard..."

"Wait!"

The queen suddenly came in from the door and stopped Emperor Jingyuan's order.

"See the emperor!"

"Why is the queen here?" Emperor Jing Yuan, who was angry, had a bad tone.

"The concubine heard that Jue'er was coming, so she came to see her!"

The queen's eyes turned red, and she knelt down beside Xia Houjue with a plop.

"The concubine knows that Jue'er is wrong about what happened this time, but after all, Jue'er is a child brought up by the concubine. He is wrong, and the concubine is also at fault. The concubine is willing to be punished accordingly!"

As soon as the queen finished speaking, she heard the report from the eunuch outside the door.

"His Royal Highness is here!"

"Here comes another one!" Although Emperor Jing Yuan was impatient, he did not stop him.

Chen Wang Xia Houyan was wearing a light yellow embroidered prince's python robe, trotting in anxiously all the way, and knelt down beside Xia Houjue.

"My son sees my father!"

"What? You came here to intercede too?" Emperor Jing Yuan gave him a sideways look.

Xia Houyan knocked his forehead on the ground respectfully.

"Yes!"

"For the sake of my mother, please forgive my brother this time. I believe that my brother must have his own difficulties!"

　It’s finally on the shelves today. It’s not easy along the way. I have suffered a lot of infamy because I didn’t write according to the routine, and I didn’t write the ancient prince as clean in body and mind. I disappointed some of my friends. I’m sorry.

　　But if I write like that, I can't even convince myself, and I can't write it. My writing style is more realistic. What I try to describe is a real ancient world.
