On the wedding night, I beg Your Majesty to give me a soup

King Liang seemed to be speaking for Li Duanjin, but in fact he was forcing Li Duanjin and the Queen Mother to clarify in person.

Lin Youyi came to the Queen Mother. Seeing that the Queen Mother was fine, she was about to speak back, but was pressed down by Li Duanjin, "Watch a show."

Tian Peng stood up and said, "I am questioning Your Majesty and the Queen Mother like this with no evidence and only rumors. Prince Liang, are you going to rebel?"

Tian Peng was a veteran of three dynasties and the head of the academies in the world, with a high status. As soon as he said this, others did not dare to refute.

A minister who was close to King Liang spoke up to ease the atmosphere, "His Royal Highness King Liang is in charge of the Zongzheng Department. There are rumors about His Majesty. It is understandable that he will handle it impartially. Please be considerate."

Lin Heng stood up and said, "If it's official business, you adults can go to the front of the Xuanzheng Palace to explain. Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, with singing, dancing, and delicious food for everyone to enjoy."

Lin Heng wanted to ease the atmosphere, but then an old woman stood up and pouted at Lin Heng.

Lin Heng suddenly felt baffled.

The old woman got up, came to the main hall, knelt down in front of Li Duanjin, and cried out for injustice.

"Old woman from the Fan family of the He family, Lin Yanting killed my daughter and took away my grandson. I beg your majesty to make the decision to redress the injustice of the old woman's daughter."

A good Mid-Autumn Festival banquet is either a hidden opera or someone complaining about injustice.

The singing and dancing paused twice.

Moreover, General Lin is involved. General Lin is the God of War in Datong and cannot be slandered.

The people attending the banquet frowned and looked at Fan with dissatisfaction.

Princess Mingde put down her chopsticks with a "snap", stood up and said angrily, "How dare you, an old woman from nowhere, dare to ruin the banquet. If you can't tell a good story, I will definitely ask your majesty to punish you severely!" "

He Haihui stood up quickly. That Fan was his mother, and he brought her here.

He came to Fan anxiously, lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty, Princess Mingde, this is Wei Chen's mother, and my sister is He Meiren, the late emperor's concubine. My mother recently received news that there was something fishy about the death of my sister. , I want to ask His Majesty to investigate thoroughly."

As soon as the words "He Meiren" came out, many ministers from the late emperor's period thought of a past event.

Li Duanjin looked at the crowd and said, "Please invite the civil and military officials and Mrs. Fan to move to the Xuanzheng Hall, while the others stay and enjoy the festival."

After saying that, he turned around and gave Lin Youyi a look.

Lin Youyi nodded and signaled Li Duanjin to leave with peace of mind.

"Your Majesty." The Queen Mother was worried and wanted to follow.

Lin Youyi grabbed the Queen Mother and said, "Mom, please be patient. Your Majesty has your own ideas."

Xuanzheng Hall.

Li Duanjin asked Fan to explain clearly the whole story.

It turned out that the first prince had few heirs, and the concubines in the harem gave birth to several princesses, but they never got a prince.

After Concubine Zhang entered the palace, the late emperor doted on her alone and rarely set foot in the harem, but Concubine Zhang never became pregnant.

At that time, the late emperor was under a lot of pressure and had to make the queen pregnant in order to leave the prince to continue the royal bloodline.

Fortunately, the queen was indeed pregnant.

However, while the queen was pregnant, He Fanxing, the maid next to Concubine Zhang, had a physical relationship with the drunken late emperor and became pregnant.

The Queen Mother was very happy at that time. Not only did she not dislike that He Fanxing was born as a palace maid, she made her a beauty and even sent someone to take care of her and raise her child.

A few months later, the Queen and He Fanxing gave birth almost at the same time, but the Queen's son was born without energy.

In order to protect the queen, the queen mother at that time ordered General Lin to bring He Fanxing's son to the queen.

General Lin not only took the child away but also accused He Fanxing of having an affair.

He Fanxing became ill due to depression and died soon after.

After the old woman told this story, she had already burst into tears. "The old woman always thought that my grandson died when he was born, but she didn't expect that he was taken away."

Mrs. Fan looked at Li Duanjin excitedly. Li Duanjin was her grandson.

Tian Peng asked, "Does the old lady have any evidence?" Mrs. Fan wiped away her tears, "I have found the personal maid who served He Meiren back then. She can testify."

"Where is she?" Wang Min asked.

"Just outside the palace." Mrs. Fan had already made preparations and kept the person with her.

Everyone looked at Li Duanjin. Li Duanjin's expression did not change and he only said, "Pass!"

The ministers couldn't figure out what Li Duanjin was thinking at this moment, and his calmness was surprising.

After the palace maid Luan Lu came in, what she said was almost the same as what Fan said.

It was also pointed out that He Meiren's son had a birthmark on his right waist.

Everyone looked at Li Duanjin.

As long as there is a birthmark on His Majesty's right waist, it proves that what Luan Lu said is true.

Li Duanjin didn't keep everyone waiting and responded quickly, "I have a birthmark on my right waist."

Luan Lu and Fan looked excited, and Fan burst into tears, "Your Majesty is really the old woman's grandson?"

He Haihui's eyes couldn't hide the excitement, his majesty was actually his cousin!He suddenly became a relative of the emperor! !

All the ministers were also surprised. They did not expect that the Queen Mother and Her Majesty were not mother and son.

Li Duanjin looked excited and shocked. After a while, he seemed to accept his life experience. He came to Fan and shouted, "Grandma."

Fan was so excited that she trembled, "Good, good boy!"

"If your mother was still alive, I don't know how happy she would be to see you so capable."

Fan thought of her daughter and asked Li Duanjin, "My grandson, you must find out the truth for your mother and clear your mother's name."

Li Duanjin nodded, "Of course."

At this time, the ministers thought that if what His Majesty said was true, then it was also true that General Lin was involved in robbing the child?

Lin Heng firmly believes that his father is not such a person.

But it was natural for the Queen's son to inherit the throne and change his name. Moreover, it was the Queen Mother's order. Lin Heng was not sure whether his father did so at that time.

"Your Majesty, what Mrs. Fan said is unbelievable. I think we should investigate it carefully." Lin Heng suggested.

"I second the proposal!" Many ministers agreed with Lin Heng's opinion.

Li Duanjin's eyes swept across everyone, and finally settled on King Liang.

"What you all love is right. Since the Queen is involved at this time, I will leave it to Prince Liang to take charge." Li Duanjin said.

King Liang bowed and said, "I obey the order."

It was said that after Li Duanjin left with the civil and military officials, Lin Youyi took charge of the overall situation. With a look from her, a little eunuch came out holding an imperial edict.

Just listen to the little eunuch singing loudly, "The talented Liu Li takes the order."

Liu Li was stunned and looked around, finding that the little eunuch only read her name.

After a while, Liu Li realized that this was really an imperial edict given to her alone.

Encouraged by the looks of Lin Youyi and Tian Shuhui, Liu Li came to the center of the hall to receive the order.

"By God's blessing, the emperor decreed that Liu Li, a talented man, gentle, kind, humble, and courteous, assisted the queen in managing the harem. His hard work and great achievements were promoted to Jieyu, and he was given the title of 'Zhao'."

At this moment, everyone in the harem and other people in the main hall looked at Liu Li.

This is the first time Li Duanjin has given a title to someone, and he is the only one in the harem.

Why does Liu Li?
