The little princess of space where the concubine often eats

Chapter 90

The emperor looked at Yunhua who was knelt on the spot resolutely, and knew that this matter would not be resolved. His own royal sister protected her daughter like an eyeball. Give the imperial sister an explanation, and don't let her come in to cause trouble at this time. It is really impossible to let the queen mother be a lobbyist for herself.

The eunuch bowed and retreated, and reappeared after a while, saying: "Your Majesty, the Eldest Princess ordered the slaves to report on her behalf, saying that Zhang Jie, a foreign minister who trespassed outside Zhaoren Palace, was taken down outside Zhaoren Palace. Please forgive me."

As soon as this remark came out, the whole hall was shocked.But after being surprised, his expression was different.

The queen's face was tense, and the prince's color was like dirt. Concubine Xian and King Zhao looked at each other thoughtfully, and figured out the key point.As for the emperor, who was high above the throne, his face was full of clouds, and he seemed to be in a very complicated mood.

After a long silence that was almost suffocating, the emperor raised his somewhat heavy arm and signaled the eunuchs who came to report back to step back.

"Empress...what else can you say?" Different from the harsh voice before, this question was extremely gentle and exhausting, but it was extremely frightening to the ears of people...

The queen's gorgeous makeup could no longer conceal her pale complexion. After turning her head and staring blankly at Aiko, she rushed to the throne and knelt down, hugged the emperor's leg, and cried out in a trembling voice; ..."

"At this point, you still want to complain?"

"The concubine knows that she has not been wronged," the queen raised her head, her eyes were filled with tears, her expression was extremely sad and moving, "but the crown prince was wronged!"

"What did you say?"

"All of this is the concubine's plan, the concubine's arrangement. The prince doesn't know anything... It was the concubine who lied and wanted to see, and told him to bring Zhang Jie into the palace. He was just following his mother's order. You know the emperor, the prince has always been filial, not only to his concubines, but also to the emperor!"

"If the prince is completely innocent, why hasn't he dared to speak up since he called you into the palace?"

"Your Majesty, how do you want the prince to defend? Do you want him to put all the blame on his mother in front of so many people? The prince is pure and filial by nature, he can't do this kind of thing! Concubine It's because he doesn't know how to protect himself, and is always accidentally bullied by people with ulterior motives, so he worries so much for him, and wants to have more support around him, so that he won't be bullied by others. Plotted to go..."

"Nonsense!" The emperor was furious, and knocked the queen to the ground with a palm, "The crown prince is the prince of the prince, how could someone plot against him? As his mother and concubine, the queen of Daxing, you should have taught him to be good at moral government, Do your duty diligently, share worries for the emperor's father at the top, and set an example for the subjects at the bottom. This is really for his own good! But look at what you are doing? You can do such insidious and despicable things? If Yunhua makes a mistake today, I’m afraid you won’t be redeemed in a hundred deaths! Even the prince’s reputation and status will be affected by you, it’s really stupid, stupid!”

This scolding can be said to be a thunderbolt kingly power, shaking like thunder, enough to make people's hearts tremble and their souls fly away.But even though he scolded so hard, a sneer flashed across Yunhua's face.

Because no matter how hard he scolded, he was just scolding the queen, especially the last sentence, which was already clear that he wanted to take responsibility for the crown prince.In this situation, it doesn't matter whether the emperor really believes that the prince is innocent or not. What the important prince is facing is the inhumanity and unfilialty of "trapping the prince with the king, helping the mother to kill the princess, and trying to shoot the brother to silence him". The serious crime of being unfriended, if he really had to deal with this crime, I'm afraid it would shake his position.As for the emperor, he didn't want to abolish the prince just because of such an incident, which would cause a big shock to the current relatively stable court situation.So after the queen took the blame, he could just go down this step and talk about it first.

After Zha cursed a lot, the emperor took a breath, and instead of rushing to deal with the queen, he ordered someone to send the eldest princess to come in.

After a while, the eldest princess entered the palace to salute. The emperor asked him a few words about how to capture Zhang Jie. The eldest princess replied that she was originally accompanying her daughter to the banquet today. Who knew that she had not had time to greet the queen mother as soon as she entered the palace. She was intercepted by the queen, saying that she wanted to ask Yunhua something, and asked the queen to host the banquet on her behalf.Because it was a temporary reception, so in order not to have any trouble, I borrowed some people from my mother, looked around, and met a sneaky person. After I caught it, I knew it was the son of the Taiwei, so I didn't dare to deal with it without authorization, so I came to ask you purpose.The emperor didn't hear anything unusual, he just felt that people are not as good as heaven, so he couldn't help but sighed and asked, "Where is Zhang Jie now?"

"Temporarily detained in the compound where the guards take turns to rest, and sent to guard."

The emperor hummed, thinking that the case was related to the princess Qingyu, and it was impossible to hand it over to Yousi for trial, so he ordered a young eunuch beside him to order the criminal to be brought here, and was going to check the confession himself.Who would have thought that the little eunuch had been gone for half a day, and came back in a panic, saying: "Zhang Jie was beaten with bruises and swollen face, it is very miserable, now he is unconscious on the ground, I really can't see him."

The emperor frowned, and gave the eldest princess a stern look.Knowing her royal sister's temperament, she has always been relatively hot, but now the queen dares to plot against her only daughter in the palace, and even made a pickle, a beating is considered light.

The emperor let out an oh, and glanced at Yunhua at the end of his eyes, wanting to see her reaction.In fact, before the case is finalized, it must be a crime to rush into the forbidden garden and lynch the suspect.But when the emperor glanced over, the eldest princess and Yunhua still sat expressionlessly, without any movement, and even stood up and said perfunctorily, "Your sister is reckless, I am angry for a while, please brother There were no such words as "forgive me", but the emperor was a little embarrassed, and scolded the little eunuch: "If you interrupt, you will interrupt. If there is anything important, come back to me, get off!"

Although Zhang Jie cannot stand trial now, he is actually quite easy to deal with. It doesn't matter whether he is tried or not. The emperor hastily ordered that he be sentenced to exile for the crime of "foreign ministers trespassing in the forbidden garden". His father Zhang Taiwei was also punished and downgraded. , no one expressed the slightest objection.

But for the queen, the emperor has some troubles.This woman married him when she was young, and she has worked hard for many years. She is also the queen of Daxing, the example of Wanmin, and the biological mother of the prince.What's more, with so many pairs of eyes watching, the word "fairness" has to be considered.While hesitating, the crown prince fell to the ground and cried: "I would like to apologize to the princess on behalf of my mother and concubine, and I beg my father and emperor to take it lightly for the sake of my mother's concubine's many years of service..."

"Evil!" The emperor kicked the prince to the ground, "Why didn't you stop your mother from doing such a foolish thing? Where is your filial piety?"

The prince hissed and cried, got up again and hugged the emperor's leg, tears streaming down his face.

Looking down at the man lying on his knees, the emperor suddenly felt in a trance, his chest felt as if it had been crushed by something, and the pain was like twisting.

The trembling hand of the emperor finally touched the back of the prince's head. The queen's heart relaxed, and she fell to the side softly, barely supporting her body with her arms.

"The empress has no virtue, her behavior is vile, and it is difficult to be tolerated by the palace rules. From now on, the title of empress will be deprived, and she will be relegated to concubine. The courtesies will be reduced as soon as she should be provided, and she will move to Qingli courtyard to think about her mistakes. She is not allowed to leave without purpose." The emperor He spoke slowly word by word, and finally shifted his gaze to Concubine Xian and the eldest princess, "Concubine Xian will take over the position of empress for the time being, what do you think, imperial sister?"

According to the eldest princess, it is of course the best way to get into Ye Youting, if she dares to plot against her precious daughter, she should be punished for the crime.But she is also a sensible person, since the crown prince is fine, then the mother is more valuable than the son, and the emperor can't humiliate the queen too much, so saying anything at this time will have no effect, so it's better not to say anything.

Seeing that the eldest princess was speechless and looked down, the emperor turned his gaze to Yunhua again: "Does the princess have any objections?"

Yunhua complained to Jun, but for the sake of his own justice, he knew in his heart that it was impossible to really abolish because of this incident.Although the emperor is protecting his weaknesses a little bit, after all, he has deposed the crown prince's biological mother for himself. After a country, he has tried his best. shook his head.

"And you," the emperor glared at the prince fiercely, "you also have to stay in the East Palace for three months, study hard, and think about what is the way to be a prince. If you want to get involved in such dirty things in the future, I will definitely Don't take it lightly!"

"My son... I would like to obey the imperial father's order..."

"Get up." The emperor looked pale, and raised his head. His penetrating gaze circled the room and landed on Qin Ming.

"Qin Ming..."

"The minister is here."

"Are you guilty?"

Qin Ming pulled up his clothes and stepped out, knelt down straight, "I am guilty."

The emperor snorted coldly, and said: "I ask you, how did you know that the Princess is in trouble, and just broke in to save her?"

In fact, Qin Ming had been thinking about how to answer when the emperor asked this question, but when he really asked, he still didn't think of the best answer, and he hesitated for a while.He came to save the princess because An An asked him to come, but he didn't know how An An found out that the princess was in trouble, so he didn't dare to confess rashly.

"What? Can't you answer this question?" The emperor waited for a moment, and his tone became slightly harsher.

"No...the minister is...the minister is because..."

"Report to Emperor Father," a steady voice suddenly sounded, "It was my minister who asked Qin Ming to go."

"You?" The emperor frowned, "How do you know?"

"That's it," King Zhao took a step forward and said respectfully, "My son entered the palace to greet his mother and concubine. He entered from Puqing gate and passed through Zhaoren palace. He ran into the maid of the princess and rushed out to ask for help, saying that something was wrong inside. The son knows that this matter is no small matter, and he would rather mistake himself for the crime of assaulting his mother than mistake the princess because of hesitation. But the son knows that his martial arts are too poor, and he is afraid that if he can't break into the inner courtyard, he will be stopped and delay the time , Qin Ming happened to pass by at this time, and the son-in-law remembered that he was now the princess's husband-in-law, so he begged him to take a step ahead to stabilize the situation. Qin Ming was a heroic man with Yunhua in his heart, so he immediately agreed to the son-in-law. ...Uh no...the empress was so insane that she ordered to shoot and kill the minister to silence him. This is what happened next. Although it was not the minister who instructed Qin Ming to threaten the prince with a saber, he was entrusted by the minister after all. Father Emperor If you want to be punished, my son is willing to share the crime."

He talked eloquently, but there was nothing unreasonable about it.Of course, the queen mother and son knew very well that it was impossible to say that Qin Ming was moved here because the maid asked for help, but at this time they were not qualified to question it, and pestering these details would not change anything, so they didn't speak.The emperor was not sure whether King Zhao was involved in this matter, but he still believed what had happened, nodded and said, "So that's the case. However, Qin Ming committed a crime against his superiors and threatened the crown prince as a hostage. He should be severely punished according to the law."

Princess Yunhua's face changed just now, and the emperor went on to say: "But after thinking about it, after all, there is a reason for the incident, and King Zhao is willing to share the crime for you. Besides, you are considered meritorious for saving the princess. Punish it. King Zhao is able to detect abnormalities and make timely decisions. I am very relieved. I will give you a hundred pieces of brocade, a thousand taels of gold, and a tin king bead as rewards."

"I thank my father, Emperor Long En."

"I'm tired, let's all back down."

The emperor closed his eyes tiredly, and lay weakly on the back pillow.Everyone in the hall didn't dare to say any more, and retreated quietly.

Concubine Xian is temporarily acting as the empress, so she is the executor of punishing the empress, and the prince has no choice but to cast a few resentful glances at King Zhao when he sees his mother being taken back to the harem.

So far, the matter has been satisfactorily resolved, and the banquet was held as usual. It was said that the empress was not well enough, and concubine Xian was to attend tonight. Naturally, everyone in the venue would not doubt it, but after hearing the notice of the relegation of Zhang Taiwei's family, it was a moment. Speculation is everywhere, but the reason is unknown.

It was only when Ji Lingchen waited at the concubine's place that he realized that Zhang Jie was captured by Ji Lingchen. When he heard Zhiqiu's message, he immediately realized that something was wrong, so he directly led people to block the back door of Zhaoren Palace. Naturally caught up.

Qin Anan nodded, and told the story honestly. By the way, Qin Meier was still grateful to Qin Meier in her heart. After all, it was her advance notice that made things go smoothly this time. Qin An'an took care of his elder brother. If the crown prince really falls in the future, at least he will let Qin Mei'er live in peace.

Ji Lingchen understood her thoughts, patted her head, and asked her to take Ji Yun home first, and he helped the mother tongue and second brother deal with the next things.

Qin An'an felt a little overwhelmed when he returned home. This kind of palace fighting drama is too exciting. If he is not careful, his body will be smashed to pieces. It is really not suitable for him. Look at Yunhua, who looks soft and weak, and does not live in the capital again. How much time has passed, but I am much calmer than myself when encountering things, and I know how to deal with them. Sure enough, people in this era are born with small skills of house fighting and palace fighting?

But before Qin Anan could figure it out, she felt a burst of blackness in front of her eyes, a pain in her stomach, and a sense of uneasiness in her heart, as if something was about to be lost, making her anxious and helpless.Finally, the sharp pain made her unable to bear it any longer, and she passed out as soon as her eyes went dark.

Before she fell into a coma, she heard the sharp cry of her little bun.

"Mother--"
