Chapter 193 Fool?

Empress Dowager Yang was lying on the couch, her eyelids couldn't help moving.

The old nanny who was waiting on the side coughed lightly, and the trembling eyelashes of Empress Dowager Yang gradually calmed down.

Ding Zhen has arrived with the drug boy who was in the medicine box.

Before Yaotong took out the pulse pillow, he discovered that Queen Mother Yang was pretending to be sick.

Since he approached the queen mother, the queen mother's breathing changed.

Seeing this, Ding Zhen also became unhurried.

Emperor Dongqi sat behind the screen, patted the table and said: "What's going on? Who of you spread the word between the queen mother and the eldest princess? The queen mother is obviously only concerned about the Kangpinghoufu, how did it get into your mouths?" , it became the Kangping Houfu to rebel? Come on! Drag them all out to play [-] boards, and then go to ask questions, and report quickly if you ask anything!"

After everyone was taken away, the Eastern Qi Emperor looked at Jiang Yan, who was kneeling behind Kang Pinghou, and asked, "Who is the concubine in the rumors? Let me hold my eyes if I call it out!"

Jiang Yan lowered his eyes and said: "Returning to Your Majesty, I... I don't know who that woman is? I saw her when I woke up in the hot spring that day..."

Before Emperor Dongqi could speak, Kang Pinghou couldn't bear it any longer, and slapped Jiang Yan's backhand, "Niety! It's useless for me to defend myself in front of His Majesty, but you are so absurd! I don't know who you dare to touch, I think you miss Fuchu Family Law!"

After all, Kang Pinghou walked up to Emperor Dongqi on his knees and cried loudly: "It's the fault of the minister. The empress dowager is right. With such evil obstacles, who knows what he will do when he is coaxed by others? I'm sorry, Your Majesty—if that woman is a traitor, how can the crimes that accompanied her be innocent? Please punish me severely!"

Emperor Dongqi said: "You, you, what should I say? No one has said anything, so you put the hat of a traitor on your son's head. You are afraid of the peace of the Kangping Houfu, right?"

The Marquis of Kangping was ashamed and angry. At this moment, he was furious and his face was like a golden paper. "The minister has owed the emperor's favor. Please take back the Marquis of Kangping and exile the Jiang family for thousands of miles to forgive his crime. Otherwise, the person who set up this situation said Maybe there will be another storm, and when the time comes, His Majesty and Dong Qi will be hurt, and I will die."

Now that the matter has come to this point, it is obvious that someone has arranged for the Marquis of Kangping. If he does not take the retreat as an advance, but uses the past affair between His Majesty and the imperial concubine as an excuse, it will really be a bad thing.

Empress Dowager Yang speaks from her heart and does things casually. She has a good son. Who makes her son the emperor of Dongqi?
He is only Kang Pinghou now, what else can he do if he can't bear it?

Jiang Yan kowtowed, and said: "I am not careful in my actions, one person should do the same thing, please forgive the minister's family..."

"Talk about what happened that day in detail," Emperor Dongqi said.

Jiang Yan was dizzy, but he still tried his best to kneel properly, "The minister made an appointment with the young masters of the Su and Xu residences that day, one wanted to ask Mr. Su to borrow an embroiderer, and the other was to get some rare embroidered clothes from Yuzhou through Mr. Xu." The brocade was used to coax the sisters at home. After the matter was settled, they left separately. I felt unwell recently, so I went to have a bath. When I woke up, the girl was already in my arms...I thought it was a big dream, but who knew The girl from the Luo family woke me up with a scream... After that, the girl disappeared, and I didn't want to mobilize the crowd to find her..."

Emperor Dongqi said: "Xuan Luo Siniang and Luo Jiuniang come."

Eunuch Luo flicked his whisk and went to invite someone in person.

When Luo Xiyao came in, she happened to hear Ding Zhen say: "The Empress Dowager fainted out of breath for a while. Waiting for the minister to give me the favor, the Empress Dowager will be able to wake up. In the future, she only needs to drink soothing soup for a few days, and pay attention to rest. nothing."

Emperor Dongqi comforted: "Give acupuncture! Let the old mother prepare whatever is needed."

"Yes."

"I have met Your Majesty, Your Majesty is blessed and safe." Luo Siniang and Luo Xiyao knelt down to pay their respects.

"Pingshen." Emperor Dongqi said indifferently, "Why did I call you here, do you know?"

Luo Siniang bowed her head and said nothing, but secretly glanced at Luo Xiyao.

Luo Xiyao said: "I didn't know at first, but Jiu Niang knew after meeting the eldest brother-in-law. I think His Majesty wanted to ask about what happened at Ye Yequan that day..."

She methodically explained how she went to the tent of the Luo Mansion to invite Luo Siniang, how she invited the eldest princess and the guards of the Punishment Department, how she traveled all the way to the hot spring, and when she came back...

"Maybe Jiuniang's horoscope is too light, and she can't suppress it without a noble person. There will always be dangers of one kind or another, so after thinking about it, Jiuniang went to ask Eunuch Hong by His Majesty's side and Madam Wu by the eldest princess's side." Mama borrowed three or two guards. What happens like this, even if someone doesn't believe Jiuniang, they still have to trust His Majesty and the Eldest Princess, right?" Luo Xiyao said, "Please don't think that Jiuniang is too cunning, Your Majesty, Jiuniang I was also forced to be helpless. I have been bullied a lot, and I still can’t tell the depth. What happens in the future, why don’t I call Jiu Niang what she deserves?”

Emperor Dongqi was angry and could it be argued, "I heard you painted a portrait?"

"Yes. Jiuniang was worried that big sister would have a hard time in the Kangpinghou Mansion, so she wanted to draw it down and ask big sister about the identity of that person, so that big sister could be careful."

Emperor Dongqi was not as foolish as Empress Dowager Yang. He carefully asked them when they set off, when they came back, which route they took, where they passed and what they found...

He asked Luo Xiyao for a while, Luo Siniang for a while, and Jiang Yan from time to time.

Just when Luo Siniang thought His Majesty's questioning was about to end, Su Jiayan and Xu Binyu unexpectedly came.

The corners of Luo Siniang's eyes twitched, her eyes were full of doubts, could this matter have something to do with the Xu Mansion?

Emperor Dongqi asked: "I heard that Jiang Yan once asked you to meet near Yequan. On what day, what time, and what did you say, do you remember?"

Su Jiayan and Xu Binyu respectively narrated what happened that day. Although there were some discrepancies, they were not bad.

But... after they said something, they dragged another person into the water, and that was the second prince.

Emperor Dongqi's face sank like water and said: "Call me the second child!"

Empress Dowager Yang woke up under Ding Zhen's silver needle at this time, she tremblingly called out: "Emperor, Emperor..."

"Mother!" Emperor Dongqi ignored the person kneeling in front of him, got up and hurriedly walked around the screen and sat beside Empress Dowager Yang, holding her hand and said, "Mother, I'm here, are you feeling better?"

"How did I hear you called the second child?" Empress Dowager Yang half-closed her eyes, with tears still in the corners of her eyes, "The second child just lost his mother and concubine. The emperor should not be too strict with him."

Emperor Dongqi said: "Physician Ding, can the Empress Dowager need some medicine when she wakes up?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, the soothing soup is already boiling."

"Okay." Emperor Dongqi smiled and looked at Empress Dowager Yang, "Mother, rest well, and I will come to see you after I have settled these trivial matters."

Empress Dowager Yang couldn't see that her son was already burning with anger, so she didn't dare to say anything more, she could only nod her head, and said softly: "The Ai family is waiting for the emperor to come, and the emperor should not work too hard. It's a trivial matter, leave it to the courtiers That's right."

Emperor Dongqi nodded, pressed the corner of the quilt for Empress Dowager Yang with his own hands, and asked Ding Zhen to stay and take good care of the Empress Dowager before taking everyone away.

As soon as they returned, without waiting for Emperor Dongqi to get angry, these people headed by Kang Pinghou all knelt down on the ground in a polite manner.

Emperor Dongqi was furious: "You guys are so courageous! You think I'm blind, so you can fool me?"
