"Report..."

Just as the emperor was about to review the memorial, the imperial guards came to the hall and knelt down to ask for instructions, "Your Majesty, someone from the Ministry of Punishment has come, saying that the interrogation has yielded results."

"Let them in."

"Yes."

The guards left, and then the people from the Ministry of Punishment came in, and the newly appointed Minister of the Ministry of Punishment knelt down, "I have seen the emperor, and the emperor is in good health."

"Xu Aiqing is not polite, tell me, have those people confessed? Who is the mastermind who murdered the Ninth Prince face to face?" The emperor is eager to know the truth, he wants to know which group of people are so reckless that they dare to murder themselves The most beloved prince.

If it wasn't because of the palace change that year, his emperor would not have been homeless for many years. No matter who the mastermind is, he will definitely make the other party pay a heavy price.

"If you go back to the emperor, it will be judged by the Supreme Hospital. Back then, he intentionally killed the Ninth Prince in the afternoon with the Ninth Prince's food..."

Mr. Xu came slowly and interrogated for several days. All the participants begged for mercy every day. He believed that most of what they said was true, but he didn't believe that the court verdict was the real culprit back then, but he was very clear about the matter. At this point, this is the only way to go, and if you want to continue to entangle, you won't be able to find anyone.

The moment the Ninth Prince returns, the mastermind must have already started to act.

He even couldn't find the mastermind, so he dared to report directly. He believed that the emperor could see everything. As for whether to continue the interrogation, it would depend on the emperor's attitude.

"Judgment? Do you think I'm a fool?"

The emperor was annoyed, and threw the paper in his hand in front of Master Xu.

"Your Majesty, there is nothing you can do. Everyone has been tortured. This is already the biggest official they have confessed, and there is no one else up."

"A good one and no one else."

The emperor glared at Mr. Xu, with a stern smile on his lips. This Mr. Xu was handpicked by him. He knows how he behaves. Now that he can't find anything deeper, it can only show that someone did it deliberately.

Who is this person?

And who can do whatever he wants in front of this hall, how could he not know as the emperor of today?
Thinking of this, the emperor beckoned Mr. Xu to go down first. Eunuch Qin sensed the emperor's anger and came forward with a cup of hot tea, "Your Majesty, be careful, this is your favorite sweet-scented osmanthus tea."

"Where do you put it, Prince?"

"I came to greet you early in the morning. You asked the prince to step down first. This meeting should be in the imperial concubine's palace?!" Eunuch Qin half-bent, waiting for the emperor's next instruction.

After a while, the emperor got up and waved his sleeves, "Go to the imperial concubine's bedroom."

"Yes."

Not long after, the emperor arrived at the imperial concubine's bedroom. Since the emperor did not send someone to notify her in advance, she caught the imperial concubine by surprise. At this moment, several ministers in her palace had nowhere to hide and could only bite the bullet and knelt on the ground to welcome the saint.

The noble concubine buried her head in front of her body, her eyes kept turning, just thinking about how to escape the catastrophe, "I don't know the emperor is coming, but I still look at the emperor..."

"Your concubine's bedroom is more lively than my bedroom." The emperor cut off what the concubine was about to say with a half-smile, and everyone trembled as soon as the words came out, "Forgive me, I hope the emperor will calm down."

"The concubine made a mistake, and I hope the emperor will calm down."

The imperial concubine and ministers all followed suit to admit their mistakes, the emperor smiled without saying a word, and after a while he waved his big hand, "Get up."

Just when the imperial concubine and the others thought that the emperor would no longer care about this matter, he suddenly opened his mouth, "All the ministers who came today will be demoted automatically, and the imperial concubine will be demoted to wife from now on."

"Emperor, Your Majesty, are you joking with the concubine?"

"Do you think I'm so boring?"

"Your Majesty, forgive me, the old minister is only here for the matter of the Ninth Prince, and nothing else?" When the first minister heard that he was going to be demoted, his wrinkled face was instantly covered with sadness, and he was about to cry. With a puff, he knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

"Why is the noble concubine in charge of this imperial palace now, and my emperor's son is back. As court officials, you didn't come to negotiate with me, but came to find the noble concubine?"

The emperor glared at the minister who was kneeling on the ground, "In that case, then I will fulfill you, and you will be Mrs. Xiao's staff from today..."

"The old minister of the emperor is wrong, and the old minister deserves to die." The minister knocked his head on the ground, but the emperor remained indifferent. He raised his eyes to look at the stunned imperial concubine, "What do you think Madam Xiao wants?"

When the noble concubine heard the emperor calling herself Mrs. Xiao, her tears fell instantly. Ever since she entered the harem, she knew that the world in the harem was going downhill. She became a noble concubine in an instant from a young Jieyu. The emperor's son has also become a prince, and it can be said that he has infinite glory, but now he has become a wife overnight, as far as she is concerned, it is better to let her die.

"Your majesty, they are all concubines' homes. Your majesty, please forgive the concubines." The imperial concubine tugged on the emperor's sleeves, staring pitifully at the man who loved her in the past with tears in her eyes.

But this time the emperor didn't accept this, and kicked the noble concubine to the ground, "I'm not a fool, of course I know if it's your fault, you just need to know that you are not a noble concubine but Mrs. Xiao."

The emperor didn't care about Mrs. Xiao's emotions at all. After saying this, he turned around and left the imperial concubine's bedroom. Now that so many ministers are there, there is no need to say anything.

As the emperor left, the ministers who were kneeling on the ground also got up and left one after another.

Not long after, the lively bedroom became deserted. Mrs. Xiao looked up to the sky and cried for a long time. When the crown prince came over and learned that his mother and concubine had been demoted, he was instantly furious and shouted to find the emperor, but Mrs. Xiao Blocking the way, "Come back."

"Mother Concubine, you are the mother concubine of this palace, how can I let you be my wife? Did Emperor Father become stupid because of Pei Zhengyan's return?"

"Shut up..." Madam Xiao immediately scolded the crown prince when she said what the emperor said, "Now that Pei Zhengyan is back, do you want to hand over the position of crown prince to someone else?"

"Mother concubine."

"Okay, let's stand still for now. If you have always been the prince, then I will not always be the madam."

Mrs. Xiao was even more angry than rising up, but now she could only bear it, she comforted the prince for a long time before calming down his atmosphere.

Here, he got the punishment he deserved, but Pei Zhengyan didn't get the result he wanted. Above the main hall, the emperor announced the result of the review during this period. Back then, the palace change was all caused by the court. Now he Already subduing the law, the emperor and the people promised to give Pei Zhengyan an explanation.

"Prince, I have wronged you all these years."

At this time, Pei Zhengyan was still angry, but the emperor came down from the dragon chair and came to Pei Zhengyan, holding his hand and facing the ministers present.

"Everyone, Pei Zhengyan is my most beloved prince. I was also wrong about what happened back then. Today I promise in front of all the ministers that no one will mention what happened back then. Yan'er will become King Zheng today. To the other courtyard of the Prince's Mansion, all the rewards will be sent today..."
