Princess Mei, the invincible divine doctor

Chapter 322 The Unforgivable Sin (2)
What is even more strange is, who told the father about the grandmother poisoning the elder brother?Since the matter has passed for so many years, the emperor did not know about it, which shows that the matter should be very secretive. Grandma was also very careful in her actions at the time. After such a long time, who would have said it, and what purpose does this person have?
He was about to secretly ruthlessly tear this person into pieces, but a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he suddenly thought of something: Could it be Concubine Han?Ever since she entered the palace, she has been indifferent and mysterious. She is always on guard against everyone. Could it be that she somehow found out about this matter? Today, her own affairs were revealed, and in order to survive, she said this. to save my own life!
This bitch, I will never let her go!
An hour later, Mei Shengyao and his wife Tang Hongxiao hurried into the palace and came directly to Jiayuan Palace to meet him, "I (the minister's wife) kowtow to the emperor!"

Empress Meishuang let out a breath slowly, just this hour, she felt like sitting on pins and needles, sweating all over her body, she almost passed out!But now that the parents have arrived, more troublesome things are yet to come, what should I do.

Emperor Xuan Jing had no expression on his face, "Get up, Mei Aiqing, Mrs. Mei, do you know why I am so anxious to see you?"

Mei Shengyao secretly said that the king's heart is unpredictable, you suddenly called us into the palace in a hurry, how can we guess why?However, seeing that Empress Meishuang's expression was not right, he already had a bad premonition, and said fearfully, "Your Majesty, please let me know."

In comparison, Tang Hongxiao is much calmer. She has always been able to move forward and retreat with a certain amount of time. The only thing that has always bothered her is that she almost killed King Mei. For this reason, her daughter has complained to her many times, so she shouldn't be impulsive , Doing such wrong things.Looking at her daughter's reaction now, and looking at Emperor Xuan Jing's anger, it's probably because of that incident, so what's the use of her being afraid.

"Mei Aiqing is too modest. You have great literary talent, and you have taught me many pillars of talent. You are a well-deserved talent in Xichi. Why do you say that you are blunt?" Did Emperor Xuanjing intend to whet their appetites? Ken straight up.

Mei Shengyao was silent, sweating like rain: I'm already old, and my grandson is so old, so what are you talking about as a "talented scholar", there is no such shabby person, it seems that the emperor is very angry! "I'm terrified, I don't know what the emperor is referring to, please tell the emperor clearly."

"Grandpa, someone wronged grandma!" After all, Jun Yechen was young and couldn't hold back anymore. He turned his back to Emperor Xuanjing and gave Mei Shengyao a wink, "It is said that grandma once poisoned the eldest brother, there is no such thing, right? ?”

Don't admit it, don't admit it, if you admit it, everything will be over!

Mei Shengyao was struck by lightning immediately, and his face changed drastically: The emperor already knows?this--

"Grandma!" Seeing that Mei Shengyao didn't speak, Jun Yechen was so angry that he turned to Tang Hongxiao who looked calm, "You didn't do it, did you? How could you possibly harm the eldest brother, tell Father quickly -"

"Your Majesty, forgive me, everything is done by my wife and has nothing to do with others!" Tang Hongxiao admitted straightforwardly, "Please punish my wife alone, please don't implicate others."

you--

The top of Jun Yechen's head was about to smoke, but she had already admitted that it was useless for him to say any more, so he could only grit his teeth and clench his palms, and backed away.It's over, now the father will definitely take his anger out on him, and out of pity for the elder brother, will he directly abolish his position as the crown prince and replace it with the elder brother?

Damn grandma, it's really not enough to succeed, but more than nothing to fail!If you want to kill, just kill the big emperor brother, without anyone noticing, without witnessing, there is no proof of death, isn't there nothing left, and leave this scourge to harm me?
Empress Meishuang closed her eyes in despair, and said in a trembling voice, "The emperor is merciful, my mother is too old to bear the punishment, and this concubine is willing to suffer for my mother!"

"Your Majesty, there is no way in the minister's teaching, Your Majesty!" How could Mei Shengyao see his beloved wife die tragically, and kowtow, "Everything is the fault of the minister, please punish the minister, please punish the minister, please give me the death penalty!"

"emperor--"

"Enough!" Emperor Xuan Jing slapped the table and shouted in a cold voice, "If Li'er hadn't been lucky enough to save his life, even if Tang Hongxiao didn't intend to kill Li'er at first, a big mistake would have been made. If I didn't Let Li'er be fair and give an explanation to the courtiers, how can the court's laws and the laws of the country be in vain!"

When Mei Shengyao and the others heard this, they were terrified, but they couldn't help thinking secretly: Could it be that the emperor didn't intend to kill them?Otherwise, why bother to say this and point out that Tang Hongxiao's behavior deserves forgiveness?

Emperor Xuan Jing paused for a while, and said in a cold voice, "Tang Hongxiao, are you convicted?"

Tang Hongxiao bowed her head, "My wife knows the crime and is willing to be punished."

"Very good!" Emperor Xuan Jing was already hesitating, "I will immediately waive your reward from my wife, and sincerely repent of my sins to the Buddha every day."

Tang Hongxiao was quite surprised: Is it just taking her title away, and no other punishment?This is quite tolerant to her, right?She immediately kowtowed gratefully, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for not killing me!"

"Mei Aiqing!" Emperor Xuan Jing turned to Mei Shengyao, "Although you didn't do it yourself, you are a husband and wife, and you can't absolve yourself of the responsibility. I will punish you to demote you to a third rank, and change to the magistrate of Tongzhou to take office immediately."

Mei Shengyao's face was suddenly deserted, and his body and mind were half cold: from being a first-rank official to a fourth-rank official, he became a small Tongzhou magistrate, not to mention, and even went to other places to take office. The emperor's intention was clearly to take advantage of this matter. To transfer him away from the capital, to scatter his influence, to put it bluntly, to get rid of him in a disguised form because he is jealous of his current position in the court!

Is not it?Not to mention that these fourth-rank officials have no power at all compared to the position of prime minister. The important thing is that Tongzhou is thousands of miles away from the capital. If he gets there, the capital will be nothing to him.
"Why, is Mei Aiqing dissatisfied?" Seeing that he was silent, Emperor Xuan Jing's face darkened, his eyes narrowed slightly, and it was exactly the same as Jun Yeli before he was about to get angry. Unfair?"

"I dare not!" Hearing the murderous intent in his voice, Mei Shengyao's heart trembled, how could he dare to say more, "This is a capital crime, the emperor is gracious, I spare my life, I am grateful! I am willing to be punished, Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"That's good!" Emperor Xuanjing's expression softened slightly, "Then Mei Aiqing will go back and pack up, and leave for Tongzhou today. You don't have to worry about the court affairs, I will arrange everything. As for the queen!" He looked at Empress Meishuang, with unkind eyes, "Although I never harmed Li'er, but I didn't report it if I knew it, and I was at fault. I see that your complexion is not good. Since you are unwell, you should take this opportunity to meditate on your own past. I will explain the matter of the harem to you." Concubine Shen will take care of it, so you can rest assured."

Concubine Shen is the mother concubine of Princess Mei, so she has only this one daughter, although she always wanted to have a prince so that she would have no worries for the rest of her life, it is a pity that she has nothing to give birth to.However, she usually does not compete for favor in front of the king, and her daughter has grown up these years, and she no longer thinks about those things, her mood gradually becomes indifferent, and the whole person looks more peaceful and peaceful. Compared with Queen Meishuang's demeanor, Not much to go.
