Queen is fearless

Chapter 280

The minister kneeling on the ground and crying originally thought that the emperor would make decisions for himself, but he did not expect that the emperor echoed Gu Houye's words.

This made his cry suddenly choke in his throat, and his face, which was originally flushed, turned red and purple, like a pig's liver.

"I'll just say it once, the queen is my queen, the queen of the Great Zhou Dynasty, my first wife, she is the biological mother of the future prince, and she gave birth to a dragon and phoenix for me. This is an auspicious omen never seen before in the Great Zhou Dynasty .”

"If she was a demon, such a good omen would not have happened to her, so the theory of demons is pure nonsense."

"Although there was an epidemic at the border, and Xuanguo was eyeing it, but now, the epidemic has been resolved. As for Xuanguo, all of you, don't you know that people in Xuanguo have always been small-minded?"

"Before the empress entered the palace, Xuanguo repeatedly invaded my Great Zhou, because of incidents a hundred years ago, small incidents, and now, a hundred years ago, not to mention the empress, even Gu Houye was not born. "

"That incident was the grievance between my ancestors and the ancestors of Emperor Xuanguo. Could it be that my ancestors were also demons?"

"This matter must have been deliberately framed by someone, and I'm not afraid to tell you that my Yuan Cheng was almost murdered!"

"Master Wen, the Wen family has been loyal and good for generations, but they haven't raised a good daughter."

When saying this, Zhou Jing's eyes fell on Mr. Wen, who is Wen Jieyu's father.

Regarding the fact that the queen was framed as a demon, he, like some ministers, believed that monks from the Lianhua Temple or mages from the Lianhua Temple should be invited to do a grand ceremony.

Now, being called by the emperor's name suddenly, Lord Wen couldn't help being startled, subconsciously raised his head, and looked at Zhou Jing.

"What the emperor said... the old minister doesn't understand." Anxiety arose in his heart. The emperor just said that the eldest son, Yuan Cheng, was almost killed by others. Then, he talked about the Wen family. Could it be, About the daughter?

"Don't understand? Yuan Bao..." With a cold snort, Zhou Jing looked at Yuan Bao, who saluted and took a step forward.

"Master Wen, the miscellaneous family is here to clear up your doubts. Speaking of which, it happened yesterday. If the Empress hadn't been alert, I'm afraid the first prince would have died by now."

"Yesterday, a thorough investigation of the harem revealed that everything was ordered by Ling Ai. Not only that, she also murdered the concubines in the harem with poison, and intended to blame Concubine Dong in Yongchun Palace."

"If the Empress hadn't been able to see clearly, I'm afraid that now, Concubine Dong would be a ghost to die!"

Concubine Dong was specifically brought up because there were members of the Dong family among the group of ministers.

Although Yuan Bao's voice was not too loud, it was loud enough for the people in the hall to hear it clearly.

After he finished speaking, the Dong family immediately raised their heads, looked at Mr. Wen with sharp eyes, then exchanged glances, took a few steps forward, and joined the lineup of Gu Qingshan and the others.

"The miscellaneous family has been in the palace for a long time, and I have never seen the empress so tolerant."

"Before in the palace, the empress was pregnant for the first time, and was accidentally pushed off the lotus pond by Concubine Dong. Fortunately, the emperor was there at the time and was rescued in time. Otherwise, I don't know what would have happened!"

"Presumably, the adults of the Dong family still remember the emperor's order to return to the capital, right? Concubine Dong was imprisoned for several months, and it was the empress who pleaded for mercy and released Concubine Dong."

"This time, Concubine Dong was framed by Wen Jieyu, and it was the empress who helped her clear up her grievances regardless of the past. How could such a person be evil!"

If Yuan Bao heard this, he would feel wronged for the queen!What a wonderful person the empress queen is!How could it be a demon?
The emperor issued an imperial decree to reprimand the Dong family for not being strict with their daughters. This incident is still remembered by the Dong family, but they don't know why.

Only now did I finally realize that everyone was so frightened that they lowered their heads and dared not speak.

This is a big deal!The empress was pregnant with a dragon descendant and was pushed into the lotus pond by the girls of the Dong family. If something happened, the entire Dong family would be ruined.

What was even more shocking was Master Wen, who had already knelt down, his heart was in a mess, and he didn't know what to say.

Having said all that needs to be said, Yuan Bao secretly looked at the emperor, saw him nodding slightly, and then backed away.

The hall fell into silence, and some ministers couldn't help but waver and changed sides one after another.

Those who supported the holding of the grand ceremony before have changed their minds and now stand in the camp of Gu Qingshan and others.

There are still people who remain neutral, which is okay, it is better than those who support legal affairs.

"Master Wen." Seeing that the atmosphere was getting better, Zhou Jing opened his mouth. Visible to the naked eye, Lord Wen's body could not help but tremble a few times, and he responded.

"Yes, I'm here." Swallowing his saliva, Lord Wen replied.

"What do you say about the Wen family?" Zhou Jing handed it to Gu Jinzhi how to deal with the Wen family, but he wanted to see the attitude of the Wen family.

Master Wen's body trembled again, and after a while, he opened his mouth in a low voice.

"Back to the emperor, my daughter is so ashamed, I am very ashamed, I am willing to resign, and I will go home and think about my mistakes behind closed doors. decision."

"I know the seriousness of this matter, even if it involves the Wen family, I... I am willing to be punished."

After speaking, Lord Wen took off his official hat and kowtowed to Zhou Jing.

Mr. Wen's attitude is still sincere, and Zhou Jing's eyes flashed approval, "Then what do you think, what are the rumors in the market?"

"Back to the emperor, before... I didn't know much about the empress before, so I was too arbitrary. After the explanation by Director Yuan, I got a little understanding. I thought that those who spread rumors are really hateful. If found out, It should be killed."

Mr. Wen thought that what his daughter did was vicious enough, but he never expected that the rumors in the capital were related to his daughter.

"Well...Your Wen family has been loyal and good for generations. I am very aware of this. It must not be what I wanted to teach such a daughter. I believe that what the Wen family did would not be confused without the participation of the Wen family."

According to the rules, if the Wen family committed such a crime, the Wen family would definitely be implicated. Even if they were not punished, they would at least be exiled from the capital and not allowed to enter the capital for a few generations.

But Zhou Jing felt that if the Wen family performed well, they could be given a lighter punishment, after all, they have been loyal and good for generations.

Of course, after this incident, it is still necessary to communicate with the queen and the Gu family. This matter is not just a business matter.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Lord Wen kowtowed quickly, heaving a sigh of relief. What his daughter did made him feel angry and helpless.

What makes her angry is that she dared to do such a thing, but what is helpless is that she is the daughter of the Wen family and is inseparable from the Wen family.

If the emperor can punish him lightly, it would really be a grace to the Wen family.
