Royal daughter-in-law

Chapter 788 The Grand Finale (7)
Seeing that he was persistent, the Queen Mother Jia comforted King Yisi with a few words: "Don't be impatient, King Yisi. You have been with the emperor for so long, and the emperor is not heartless. He will definitely give you an explanation."

At this moment, I only heard a report from outside the flower hall: "The imperial concubine has arrived with Man Rong."

Yun Wanqin led Man Rong and Chu Xia into the flower hall, and she was blessed.

Tang Wuyou had already been excused by the Empress Dowager Jia, and was helped by Xianchun to sit down. Seeing her bulging belly in a cloak, her eyes darkened, her hands rested on her belly, and she felt invisible. With some confidence, he straightened his back, which seemed to be against the court.

When Empress Dowager Jia saw Yun Wanqin coming, she hurriedly asked for a chair: "Ai's family called Man Rong, you have a big belly and it's hard for you to walk, what are you doing here?"

Yun Wanqin ignored Tang Wuyou's pride in rubbing her belly, and said respectfully: "Manrong is from Fuqing Palace. Since the Empress Dowager summoned the concubine's palace servants, how could the concubine not come?" His eyes fell on Tang Worry-free, "Besides, it's about the important matter of Princess Shenyi."

The Empress Dowager Jia looked at Man Rong: "One night in May, outside the Wenhui Zhai, you ran into Princess Shenyi. You told the eldest princess that the emperor works in Wenhui Zhai, and then watched the eldest princess go in to say hello?"

Manrong knelt on the ground and said timidly: "Yes, this servant watched the eldest princess enter Wenhuizhai that night."

Tang Wuyou was overjoyed, and couldn't help but glance at Yun Shi who was opposite, so what if he personally came to supervise him, the joy had not yet dissipated, and Manrong's thin face suddenly panicked: "However, the servant did not follow The eldest princess said that the emperor was in Wenhuizhai that night!"

Tang Wuyou froze for a moment, feeling troubled.

Empress Dowager Jia was surprised: "What do you mean? It is clearly written in the daily life note that the emperor rested at Wenhui Zhai that night."

This time it was Chu Xia's turn to speak up: "Returning to the Empress Dowager, the Emperor did indeed work and rest in Wenhuizhai that night as mentioned in the daily life note, but that night because the empress was pregnant, her legs cramped so badly that she fell asleep in pain. After a while, the servants sent someone to tell the emperor, but unexpectedly the emperor came secretly, once he came, he never left, until the dawn was about to go up, and he returned to Wenhuizhai."

Tang Wuyou's face turned pale, it's impossible, who is that person in Wenhui Zhai...

Empress Dowager Jia was also alarmed: "Since the emperor was not in Wenhui Zhai on the sixth day of May, where did Wuyou come from!"

King Yi Si also looked at his sister with cold eyes.

Tang Wuyou broke out in a cold sweat, feeling so wronged that he was dying, he prostrated himself on the ground: "I am really in the bedroom of Wenhuizhai and the emperor——Wenhuizhai, besides the emperor, how can there be other men——"

The scent of cologne on that person's clothes...how could there be others!

Just at this moment, the palace servants came to report in a panic: "My Majesty, the Empress Dowager, a small official from the outer city gate shouted to see Tianyan, saying it was about Princess Shenyi, Mr. Shen, I am afraid there is something wrong with you." I was afraid that he would hurt the face of the royal family by shouting outside, so I brought him here alone."

Tang Wuyou's heart was like a centipede crawling around, panicked, what's going on——

"How could the princess, a small official at the outer city gate, know him? You dare to ask to see the emperor and the empress dowager, you are tired of living." King Yisi scolded.

Empress Dowager Jia waved her hand: "Ask Mr. Shen to bring him in."

Tang Wuyou's uneasiness rose to the extreme. After a while, he only heard the footsteps approaching behind him. He turned his head and saw the person behind Shen Zhao clearly. It looks familiar, but I can't remember it alive.

When the man approached and saw clearly a fresh-looking scar on the left side of his face, Tang Wuyou suddenly remembered that it was the old city guard who had been slapped by him and insulted in public!

Xianchun was also stunned.

Shen Zhao clasped his hands: "To the Empress Dowager, to the Holy Majesty, this Song Laowang is the gatekeeper of the Southwest Gate. He has guarded the gate of the imperial city for 20 years, and he is considered to be an eighth-rank official." He ordered the veteran guarding the city to kneel down: "If you have anything to say, don't report it to the Empress Dowager!"

Song Laowang knelt down suddenly, sweat poured down his dark face, and he glanced at Tang Wuyou.

Tang Wuyou broke out in a cold sweat when he saw it, he seemed to have a premonition, but he couldn't believe it, he only heard Song Laowang gritted his teeth: "Princess Shenyi's baby is my minister's!"

It was like a bolt from the blue, everyone present except Tang Wuyou, who was almost paralyzed, was stunned, Yun Wanqin sneered, and said, "Could it be a joke."

Empress Dowager Jia also showed an angry expression: "You little city guard, how could you have the opportunity to know the princess? How dare you insult the reputation of the princess casually! Come on—"

"No, I didn't insult the eldest princess," Song Laowang said anxiously, "The minister and the eldest princess definitely know each other, and they still don't know each other without a fight." After saying that, his wrinkled black face turned red, "Zhengyang A group of colleagues at the door have seen it, and if you don’t believe it, the Empress Dowager and the Emperor just randomly find someone to come out and ask! Oh yes, the imperial concubine happened to enter the palace gate at that time, and she was there too!"

Yun Wanqin's face was startled, and she glanced at Chu Xia, who suddenly realized something, and reminded her a few words.

Yun Wanqin slapped her head suddenly, and said suddenly: "I remember, when you entered the city gate that day, you were the one who handed the eldest princess a handkerchief for fear that the rain would wet the eldest princess's shoes and skirts. I even lost my temper with you, which can be regarded as a few words."

"Yes, since that day, the minister and the eldest princess have not known each other." Song Laowang's face moved, his yellow teeth were slightly exposed, and he looked affectionately at the snowy jade girl next to him.

Tang Wuyou couldn't bear this innocent injustice, this old guy, with a black face and ugly appearance, anyone who is not blind can see how he can look down on him, and screamed: "You nonsense!"

Empress Dowager Jia also didn't believe it, Tang Wuyou was such a high-minded person, he only cared about the emperor, how could he look at an old and ugly city guard, and his eyes became more severe.

Knowing that the group did not believe it, Song Laowang took out a jade pendant and showed it in front of everyone: "This is the personal token of the eldest princess, and it is also a token of love from the eldest princess to the minister. On the sixth day of the fifth lunar month, the minister was on duty at the city gate. The eldest princess asked the minister to come in based on this and have a private meeting near Wenhui Zhai."

That jade pendant was specially offered by Man Rong as a reward!Tang Wuyou's eyes widened, and he suddenly understood that this was clearly a game!She crouched down: "I really haven't had anything to do with this person, the jade pendant is..." But it can't be said that it was a reward for bribing Manrong to find a chance for her to seduce the emperor, "I have long since disappeared." Yupei, who knows if he picked it up! I beg the Empress Dowager to investigate clearly!"

Song Laowang was in a hurry: "The eldest princess has a mole two inches below her ribs, and her left buttock has a bright red flame-like birthmark!" Although the eldest princess turned off the lights as soon as she came in that night, this charming baby One night of enthusiasm, pestering people endlessly, set his old house on fire, almost never stopped all night, he saw her everywhere from top to bottom.
