Chapter 295 Niece and Aunt

Empress Chen's hands and feet are not clean, so the empress dowager only needs to follow the clues Xiao Jingheng left her, and she can easily settle the case.

As the scene of the crime, Wanchun Palace will of course be carefully inspected. After Mo Chenfeng arrives, this matter will be handed over to the servants.

Then, Wei Cairen, who was used from head to toe by Concubine Lin Gui, fell into bad luck like this.In her palace, two aphrodisiacs of unknown origin were found.

two copies?Both Empress Chen and Concubine Lin were taken aback.

One of them, of course, was hidden by Wang Fengchun in advance for the purpose of framing him afterwards.But the other copy was actually hidden by He Guigui. Empress Chen didn't know about it, and of course Concubine Lin Guifei didn't know about it either.

Empress Chen only thought that Concubine Lin Gui wanted to frame her, so she didn't let go of this matter. It's a pity that Concubine Lin Gui is really magnanimous. On the day of the accident, her people never left Wei Cairen's sight until Wang Fengchun came over , Separate the people and charge them up.

The maids and inner eunuchs in Wei Cairen's palace were all sent to the Ming prison, but this group of people were really wronged. Even if they were tortured and found out that Wei Cairen secretly hid aphrodisiac incense to seduce the emperor, it would not explain why Chen Jiu Miss will appear in Wanchun Palace.

However, the eunuch that Empress Chen sent to lead the way for Xiao Jingheng could really spit out some real things. He did go to the Sizheng Palace to find Xiao Jingheng under the order of Empress Chen.

Therefore, there is no need to continue to investigate, the empress dowager quickly made a judgment, she slapped the table, and glared angrily at Empress Chen who was kneeling at the bottom of the steps: "Empress, this trip today is actually aimed at Xiao Jiu, right? How courageous you are! If you think it can be done, even if everyone knows that it is tricky, Xiao Jiu will have to pinch her nose to recognize you Chen's daughter, right?"

yes!That's what Empress Chen planned.Using aphrodisiacs to plot against the prince in the palace, how could it not be discovered.This was originally a tactic to break the boat, and what was needed was that no matter how angry the emperor and the empress dowager were, they had to admit the fact of Miss Chen Jiu and Xiao Jingheng, just like today's emperor had to admit the incident with Miss Chen Jiu .Because the emperor wanted to give the Chen family an explanation.

But she never expected that this turned out to be a game in which the mantis stalks the cicada and the oriole followed. Her plan had long been seen through and used.Empress Chen raised her eyes and glared angrily at Concubine Lin Gui who was sitting beside her.

But she has no proof.She couldn't point out that Concubine Lin Gui had tampered with it.

More importantly, Empress Chen understood the emperor's thoughts.The emperor hoped that the responsibility for this matter would rest entirely on the Chen family.

Empress Chen is very clear.

Therefore, what she is facing now is a dilemma, whether to presume that she does not know, and put the responsibility for this matter on Ms. Chen Jiu. She only bears the responsibility for being unfavorable to discipline, or should she take the responsibility and protect her niece with all her strength. ?

Empress Chen really wanted to choose the second path.She knew that the emperor would not abolish the empress easily, but in this way, she might inevitably be punished, and the power of the sixth palace might be lost.Once the rights are lost, it will be difficult to get them back. She, the queen, will be in name only in the future. To the family, she is a waste.

More importantly, the noble concubine Lin Guifei is likely to become the actual person in power in the harem.

She was actually very tired. If it was only herself, she could accept such a result, but what about her father?Can my father accept it?If she is abolished, can the niece be guaranteed to be favored in the harem, suppress the many concubines in the harem, suppress Lin Guifei, and replace her as the lord of the harem?
Empress Chen looked at the bluestone bricks on the ground, her eyes were empty.She knew it was impossible.The niece who was spoiled and brought up has not been tempered by the world, she will never be able to fight against those fine men in the harem.

Empress Chen knew what she should do if it was for the family.But she couldn't speak for a long time.That is her niece!How could she have followed her mother into the palace to accompany her since she was a child, and would sweetly call her aunt?

"Queen! If you don't speak, you admit it?" The empress dowager snorted coldly: "Okay, you..."

However, before the Empress Dowager could finish her sentence, a person suddenly rushed out from the side, and jumped directly in front of Empress Chen, blocking her with his own body.

"The Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager," Miss Chen Jiu knelt in front of the Empress Chen and kowtowed heavily to the Empress Dowager: "It's all my fault! Everything is done by my daughter and has nothing to do with my aunt. She doesn't know about it. It's my daughter, yes The little girl lied to the inner eunuch of Weiyang Palace, and passed on the false order of her aunt to the prince, and it was also the little girl who brought aphrodisiac incense from outside the palace, wanting to..."

"Yun'er!" Empress Chen yelled sharply, "Shut up! Get down! You have no place to speak!"

"Auntie! Auntie!" Miss Chen Jiu turned her head, her face was full of panic tears, but she didn't leave, instead she turned around and hugged Empress Chen: "It's my fault! Look at me, cover it up for me! I know I was wrong, I can't... woo... I can't let my aunt take the blame for me, it's all my fault. I just like the prince, but he always doesn't want to look at me more, so I was... I was... confused for a moment. Aunt, I was wrong, I was wrong!"

Miss Chen Jiu hugged Empress Chen, buried her face in her chest, and was out of breath from crying.Empress Chen certainly knew why Miss Chen Jiu did this, she closed her eyes in pain.

"Auntie! Please! Please!" Miss Chen Jiu, who was lying in Empress Chen's arms, was still sobbing softly. Of course, Empress Chen knew what she was asking for.After a long time, Empress Chen stretched out her hand, hugged the girl in her arms slowly, and patted her on the back lightly.

"Yun'er, don't cry! Don't cry!"

"You guys are aunts and nephews." The empress dowager sneered, her face almost distorted in anger.Trying to plot against her precious grandson failed, but plotting against her precious son, this really stepped on the old lady's thunder, and now she really wanted to kill the uncle and nephew in front of her.

"Empress Dowager, I was wrong! It's not my aunt's fault!" Miss Chen Jiu raised her head again, sobbing, but she clearly and firmly narrated another version of the "conspiracy". In this version, everything was hers. Everything is her fault, everything is her own decision, and Empress Chen has no knowledge of it.

Empress Chen knelt behind her, her teeth clenched her lower lip tightly, and her tearful eyes washed away the delicate and complete makeup, but she didn't stop Miss Chen Jiu again.

"The Empress has given birth to a good niece." Concubine Lin Gui looked on coldly for half a day, and then said, "It's convenient to recognize her now. I don't know that the empress dotes on my niece so much. You have the ability to move Wang Fengchun to set up such a big game."

"Concubine Lin," Empress Chen glared at Concubine Lin angrily, gritted her teeth and replied, "Don't push people too far."

 ---Here is the dividing line for Miss Chen Jiu--
  Miss Chen Jiu and Queen Chen are still a family.She took the initiative to take responsibility, partly for the benefit of the family, but there are also emotional factors.

  When she took the initiative to stand up, everything was actually thought through, and she was willing to protect her aunt.

  She actually knew that she was just a pawn in Queen Chen's plan, but she was still willing to bear everything for her aunt.
