There is Room For the First Wife

The queen instigated the murder of the emperor's heir, which was a serious crime according to the law, and the Pei family would also be implicated.

Xiao Wenyu instructed the guards to invite Pei Shoufu in.

As soon as Pei Shoufu came over, the queen struggled and shouted: "Grandfather, save me, save me, I didn't instruct Yuan mama to poison Concubine Shu, it was something Yuan mama did her own will."

As soon as Pei Shoufu heard this, he knew that his granddaughter was really ruined. As a queen, even if she instructed Mother Yuan to do this, confessed such a crime, and protected her servants, this was not only looked down upon by His Majesty, but also gained loyalty. She was a servant, but in the end, because of her fear, she put all the responsibility on the head of Mother Yuan.

Such a her, not to mention Your Majesty, even he doesn't look down on her.

Pei Shoufu looked at the queen in disappointment, even if the queen did not admit it, as long as your majesty recognized it, you would be guilty if you admit it or not.

Pei Shoufu turned around to look at the young emperor who was looking up, and knelt down with a plop: "The lax family education of the minister caused the queen to make a monstrous mistake. The minister asks your majesty to punish him."

Xiao Wenyu looked at Pei Shoufu, who was next, with a cold gaze, and it took a long time before she said: "What the queen did has nothing to do with the Pei family. If I sue the Empress of the World for murdering the Emperor, I will also tell everyone that this matter has nothing to do with the Pei family."

Xiao Wenyu's words made Pei Shoufu's face turn pale, the emperor's edict, all the people in the world will only say that his Pei family's goddaughter is not strict, so that his granddaughter will make such a monstrous mistake, even if His Majesty says that the Pei family has no Sin, the mouth of the world can't spare the Pei family, and his Pei family's reputation has been ruined.

Pei Shoufu wanted to kowtow heavily, and while kowtow said, "Your Majesty, the old minister has an unkind request, please do it."

Xiao Wenyu looked at him and said in a deep voice, "Speak."

Pei Shoufu said solemnly: "Your Majesty, for the sake of the old minister's wholehearted loyalty to the court, let the empress once, and the minister is willing to resign and return to his hometown."

What Pei Shoufu said meant that he was willing to give up the position of Shoufu to protect the queen.

He resigned on the grounds that he was old and lacked energy, and people outside would not think about the Pei family.

Just keep the queen, don't let the Pei family lose the last decent.

Xiao Wenyu, the head of the hall, listened to Pei Shoufu's words and frowned slightly.

Although the Empress drugged Concubine Shu and mutilated the emperor's heir, the key point was that Concubine Shu and the child in her belly were all right now, if he ordered an imperial decree to sue the queen of the world for the crime.

Some will believe it, some will not, and maybe they will think that he wants to clean up the Pei family, so he will use the queen.

In this way, his reputation will be damaged, and even if people believe that the queen is at fault, but Concubine Shu and the child are fine, if he punishes the queen, people will also say that he is making a fuss. Others will say it's not his.

On the contrary, it is more beneficial for him to ask Pei Shoufu to resign through the matter of the queen.

It's just that this is unfair to Concubine Shu.

Xiao Wenyu felt a little self-blame, glanced at Concubine Shu, then turned to look at Pei Shoufu, the leader of His Highness, and said in a deep voice, "Shoufu Pei has made great contributions to my great Zhou. Since the first assistant has made a request, I will spare the Queen once."

After listening to Xiao Wenyu's words, Pei Shoufu was relieved and at the same time affirmed one thing, regardless of His Majesty's young age, he was actually a shrewd and wise emperor. Such an emperor would not be prosperous after Sunday. Prosperity, but it's a pity that he can't do anything more for Da Zhou.

"I thank Your Majesty Long En."

Pei Shoufu knelt down to the end, then turned to look at the queen on one side.

The queen was obviously relieved when she heard Xiao Wenyu spared her.

Pei Shoufu looked at such a granddaughter and couldn't help sighing in his heart, his vision was too low.

Even if the emperor didn't punish her for her sins now, she could end up doing well in the future, causing the emperor's disgust, she was useless in the palace, and life would not be easy.

But he won't be able to help her in the future, he just wants her to live in peace, and don't make the Pei family laugh anymore.

Pei Shoufu thought about looking at the queen and said earnestly: "The madam will cherish it yourself in the future, and think twice before doing everything."

After Pei Shoufu finished speaking, he left, his steps were unspeakably staggering, and he was getting old.

Xiao Wenyu, the head of the hall, waited until Pei Shoufu left, gave the queen a disgusting look, and ordered, "Send the queen back to Kunning Palace, and there is no order to go to Kunning Palace."

The queen was startled and turned around to look at Xiao Wenyu. Seeing the disgust and disgust in Xiao Wenyu's eyes, the queen's heart sank and she cried out uneasy: "Your Majesty, the concubine really did not instruct Yuan mama..."

The queen didn't say anything, and Zhou Youjin came over to ask for instructions: "The queen, please, don't ask the slaves to do it."

The queen looked at Zhou Youjin in disbelief: "You slave dare to speak to this palace like this."

Zhou Youjin didn't even bother to pay attention to this woman. Right now, she was just wearing the name of an empress. Even if she was still an empress, she was useless.

Zhou Youjin waved his hand, and the **** came over and grabbed the queen and put her out.

The queen was finally stunned.

Xiao Wenyu decreed that all the eunuchs and palace maids who were involved in poisoning and maiming the emperor's heirs, such as Yuan mama, were killed.

In Chaoyang Palace, in the end, only Xiao Wenyu, Concubine Shu, and Lu Jiao were left.

Lu Jiao had given the antidote to Concubine Shu before, but seeing that the matter was over, she got up and left the palace.

Xiao Wenyu waited until Lu Jiao left, walked to Concubine Shu Wang Mengyao's side, and stretched out her hand to hold her: "Mengyao, this time you are wronged."

Wang Mengyao doesn't feel wronged. His Majesty has worked hard to protect her and her child. She can't help but be considerate of him. As the emperor of Da Zhou, sometimes he can't do things his own way. She understands all aspects of doing things.

Wang Mengyao stretched out her hand to cover Xiao Wenyu's mouth: "Your majesty has done enough for your concubine and children, and the concubine understands that it is not easy for your majesty."

After listening to Wang Mengyao's words, Xiao Wenyu couldn't help laughing, and reached out and hugged Wang Mengyao into her arms.

"Don't worry, sooner or later, I will help you get justice."

Wang Mengyao smiled and leaned against Xiao Wenyu's chest: "Your majesty did for our mothers and concubines, all of you know, thank you majesty."

As the emperor of Da Zhou, Xiao Wenyu has given her a lot, not to mention that he is an emperor, he is an outside court official, many people have three wives and four concubines, and they just respect their wives and children more than they like them. Not at all worse than others.

Especially when she is pregnant, UU reading www. uukanshu.com Xiao Wenyu often visits her and cares about what she wants to eat and what she likes. He usually reads to the child in her belly and communicates with the child in her belly. At this time, he is not an emperor, just a concerned child's father.

Since Wang Mengyao became pregnant, her relationship with Xiao Wenyu has become much closer, and he seems to be a part of her life.

Xiao Wenyu was in a good mood when she heard Wang Mengyao's words. It was nice to have someone who understood him.

Xiao Wenyu suddenly understood what Mother meant for them to marry only one wife. He looked down at Wang Mengyao in his arms. In fact, Wang Mengyao was not particularly beautiful. There were many people in the palace who were prettier than her, but she was free and easy and understanding. He is kind, kind, and kind to the child. He also understands him. He will never blame him for his inappropriate behavior, which makes Xiao Wenyu's heart involuntarily approach her.

Xiao Wenyu suddenly had an urge to wait for the big Zhou Jiangshan to stabilize, and he would just watch over her alone, which was not bad.

Thinking about it, Xiao Wenyu couldn't help but leaned into Wang Mengyao's ear and whispered: "Mengyao, you and your child are well, I will treat you and your child well, and apart from the queen, I have not touched other concubines."
