Chapter 45
The emperor looked at Zhou Xining for a while before he cried out.
He can't see through it, it's okay if she doesn't like my second prince, after all, that son has a deep and terrible mind since he was a child.So what's the situation with this face of death like home now?Could it be that my seventh prince can't catch her eyes?How can this work!
My Seventh Prince is extremely honorable, why do you look down upon me as the daughter of a subject?Inexplicably, the emperor felt depressed first.The words he spoke were a little yin and yang and not so pleasant to hear.
The emperor: "I heard that you often go to the Wangjiang Tower on the East Street. Tell me what dishes are there?"
Zhou Xining: ...
If she was the face-saving princess in this palace, and she was asked this question after she secretly left the palace and came back, it would be just the most common conversation between father and daughter.But she is not, which sounds a little uncomfortable.
The empress's face is also a bit ugly, is the emperor humiliating Zhou Xining?Or do you want to rob a woman from your own son?
Zhou Xining didn't know how much the emperor knew about the Wangjiang tower. After thinking about it for a while, he replied politely: "Back to the emperor, my ministers are sweet. After returning to Beijing, I went to Wangjiang tower once. The drunk dates there That’s right, I can’t talk about other courtiers.”
If the emperor really set his sights on Zhou's house, he would know that she had indeed only been there once, and it was his elder brother Zhou Yanqing who brought her there for the sake of the drunk date.
The emperor snorted, "Zhou Shining, do you know what the crime of deceiving the emperor is?"
"The courtier is terrified." Zhou Xining kowtowed to the ground, thinking that if he could come to the palace in the future, he would not come here, hurting his knee.
"Only once? Then tell me again, how many times have you met my seventh prince at night?" The emperor said in a cold voice with a sullen face: "In the daytime, I met my second prince privately with Bo Yuqian, and at night I went to meet my seventh prince privately." Seventh prince, panic? I see you are very courageous!"
This crime is too serious to admit.
Zhou Shining kowtowed again and said, "I dare not meet the Seventh Prince at night even if I die, I hurt my leg when I fell down the back mountain, and hurt my knee after entering the palace, and I can only walk freely in the near future. My daughter begged and sued When confronted face-to-face, the death of a courtier's daughter is not a pity, and the seventh prince's reputation must not be damaged."
The emperor's face was as motionless as a mountain, but there were some changes in his heart.He remembered that Zhou Xining was indeed in a bad mood that day, so he left the palace in a soft sedan.Then what the queen said about the night meeting may have to be discussed elsewhere. Thinking of this, the emperor couldn't help but look at the queen.
The queen also received some unkind eyes from the emperor, and then she stopped looking at it and said directly: "Zhou Shining, did you meet the Seventh Prince at Wangjiang Tower a few days ago?"
It seems that apart from Wangjiang Tower, the emperor and empress don't know anything, so it's easy to say.
Zhou Shining: "Going back to the Empress, my servant injured her knee a few days ago and is unable to walk. She can barely walk on the ground recently. If this is true or not, the empress will call the imperial doctor for an examination."
These two sentences seem to be the answer to the question, but it is equivalent to saying everything.She didn't admit that she didn't do it, but since the emperor knew about Wangjianglou, he couldn't deny it.And the real situation can't be said, it would be a big crime for her.The emperor doesn't care if she is a victim or not, he only sees one or two princes running after her.
What's more, what she said was not a lie, there was still some pain in her knees after walking all the way today, she was not afraid of the imperial doctor's examination.
The emperor looked at Zhou Xining with extremely complicated emotions.At the palace banquet, there was a pattern and responsibility.In Longyuan Temple, there are means in dealing with things and a bottom line in life.Today's response is even more well-founded, with right and left.This woman is worthy of his seventh prince, but she clearly expresses that she has no intentions for him.This is exasperating.
When the emperor looked at Zhou Xining, the queen also had a thoughtful expression on her face. Was Zhou Xining saying that she had no affair with Chen'er?Or are you saying that it wasn't she who made an appointment to meet Chen'er, but Chen'er took the initiative to visit her when she learned that she was injured?If Chen'er went to check her wounds, she wouldn't be allowed to drag her wounds out of the house, but what about Wangjiang Tower?
The queen looked at Qingluo who was standing behind her, and saw Qingluo nodded invisibly, the queen understood.Zhou Xining's leg was indeed injured, so it would be wrong to kneel like this again, what if he suffered from a hidden illness?
He said: "Your Majesty, should I ask Miss Zhou to get up and answer first, the concubine looks at the injury on her leg, which seems to have not healed yet."
The emperor glanced at the empress rather tiredly, and thought, you didn't even understand what she was thinking, so you just protected her.But since the queen passed the steps, he also yelled.
After being silent for a while, the queen said again: "Your Majesty, Chen'er told the concubine that he admired Miss Zhou very much, and said that Miss Zhou acted in a very orderly manner. The concubine also had a good eye for Miss Zhou this week. The young lady is also there, and everyone said that it is better to hit the sun than to choose a date, how about giving marriage to the two of them today?"
Well, the emperor glanced at the queen in relief, and finally said something that satisfied him, and said, "Zhou Xining, I will immediately..."
"Your Majesty." Zhou Xining, who had just stood up, knelt down again, eagerly intercepted the emperor's words, and at the same time tore off the sapphire worn around his neck, and held it high with both hands.
"I implore the emperor to read it before making an oracle."
After receiving the signal, Internal Attendant Sun Li walked out from behind the emperor, took the sapphire and presented it to the emperor.
This is……
Looking at the sapphire in his hand, the emperor's eyes shrank, and when he looked at Zhou Xining again, there was a touch of inquiry in his eyes.But then he shook his head lightly, no, Zhou Xining's age was not right.But this jade is right.
The emperor: "Where did you get it?"
After Zhou Xining offered the sapphire, he had been secretly watching the emperor's reaction, and said after hearing the words: "The marriage and engagement token of my daughter-in-law's family."
Husband!wedding!The queen understood these words clearly, but she couldn't understand them when they came out of Zhou Xining's mouth together.
The queen almost blurted out: "I don't know when you made the engagement? Do you have a marriage book and a media agency?"
Look, just now she was gentle and gentle, but when she turned around, her words secretly accused her of having a private life with others.The empress's face changed really quickly.
"Return to empress, this marriage contract has existed since childhood, the matchmaker has passed away, and the marriage certificate is in the government." Mrs. He has passed away, and the marriage certificate is in the hands of my grandfather, so I am not afraid to check it.
The emperor also said: "Does the old emperor know about this matter?"
"Back to the emperor, the marriage certificate will be kept with my grandfather."
emperor:……
It's no wonder that he hinted at the old master several times, but was politely rejected by the old master. It turned out that he had a marriage contract long ago.Then why didn't the old master say anything?Also, if it's really that child, it's really hard to say.
It seems that I have wronged Zhou Xining. She is not looking down on my prince, but she is keeping the marriage contract.
"Which family will be my husband's family in the future? I want to see which family's young master is more favored by the old emperor than the seventh prince of my palace." The queen's eyes were ruthless, and her face was extremely ugly.
The words were clearly threatening.
