Rebirth of the scholarly lady

Chapter 398

Seeing the love of his life begging for mercy in front of everyone, the emperor couldn't help showing hesitation on his face.

Not to mention what is the right and wrong of this matter, the emperor is very sad at the moment.

The emperor loves Concubine Hua Gui, before and now.

The prince saw the emperor's expression in his eyes, and said with a low smile: "Father." The prince is different from the past, he exudes a ghostly aura rather than an aristocratic aura. A bit mean-spirited, and a bit cynical.

Seeing the emperor looking back at him involuntarily, the prince continued: "Father, whether it is the concubine Huagui who wants to eat it herself, or she thinks that the concubine Lian is too kind, or what kind of mentality the concubine Huagui is in to accept the lotus flower?" Concubine Concubine's good intentions, these are not the most important, the most important thing is the urgent task now... Concubine Hua Guifei ate human flesh, how should this be dealt with? Not to mention the original intention, anyway, this is unruly, right? If it spreads out, it will become a big hidden danger.”

Tuoba Lian no longer had any thoughts of brotherhood in his heart, when the prince said that, Tuoba Lian was furious: "Prince, what do you mean?"

The prince showed an expression of "I'm afraid", touched his chest, and said with a slight sarcasm in his eyes: "Why? Just because you are my younger brother and Concubine Hua Gui is your mother, so I can't say a word in front of my father. Is it fair?"

The queen covered her lips with her hands, and said with a blank expression: "Concubine Lian interrupted the sacrifice in order to fight for favor and be different. It was a false alarm, but in the middle of the night, no witchcraft artifacts were found. It has been found out, Your Majesty, the people outside are still suffering from the plague, and it is an eventful time, so this matter must be dealt with strictly."

It is impossible for Tuoba Lian not to help his mother, and the queen, Nan Surou and the prince are in the same group, Tuoba Lian couldn't restrain his anger and said: "My concubine mother is definitely not the kind of woman who has a heart like a snake, She is so weak, she can't bear to hurt anyone, those things are dead things, how can she have the heart to hurt the living for dead things?"

As soon as these words came out, Nan Surou couldn't help laughing, Tuoba Lian was just like his previous life, he was very good at legalizing his actions, how could he harm the living for the sake of dead things?Well said...

The prince put away his cynicism, and said calmly with a serious face: "Ninth brother, I know you love your mother and concubine. Before the thing is sent to Ronghua Palace, it must be a living thing. It is only when it is put into the bowl of the concubine Huagui. It must be dead. There has always been demand and there is supply. If you refuse such demand from the beginning, there will certainly be fewer tragedies like this in this world. Can you kill more babies and send them here? Isn’t that thankless, shameful and disgusting?”

As the prince said, he glanced at the emperor and saw that the other side's face was getting more and more gloomy, so he continued to face Tuoba Lian and said: "Ninth brother, even if you love your mother and concubine, you shouldn't be so protective. You are already an adult. Can judge right and wrong, this matter is under the watchful eyes of the public, and it is impossible to deny it. If you are willing to persuade her more on weekdays, she will not really eat that kind of thing. You know, the witchcraft curse It is a capital crime, ranging from exile to death, and cannibalism is not in the ranks of the law. If there are rumors of cannibalism in the royal family, do you know the consequences? Concubine Hua Guifei is fine by herself, is it going to implicate the entire royal family?"

The queen laughed silently, and said: "There is no impenetrable wall in the world. If this matter gets out... I don't know what earth-shaking consequences will be..."

The queen and the prince sang together, Concubine Hua was flustered and her hands trembled. She was a sensible person, so she naturally knew the deep meaning in what the prince said.

Cannibalism is an act of inhumanity.

The common people are in dire straits, if they hear that their ruler is a man-eating monster, it will be an opportunity for those who want to take advantage of it, and the reason for rebellion will come out. The emperor will never allow this to happen.

If it is necessary to avoid hidden dangers, Concubine Hua Gui's life is naturally not allowed, and the Ninth Prince, as Concubine Hua's son, naturally has to be dealt with, but the key is that the Emperor is reluctant.

I can't bear it, so what should I do?
To find another way, it can only be said that the food found in the Ronghua Palace is not for eating, but for performing witchcraft. If the sentence is lighter, then Concubine Hua will be thrown into the cold palace, and the Ninth Prince will be exiled...

This is the most lenient treatment, because under the watchful eyes of everyone, the emperor must give an explanation, otherwise the harem will be unstable, and various rumors will surely spread.

The emperor couldn't kill all the concubines present for the sake of Concubine Hua. After all, their natal families were all nobles and ministers of the ruling and opposition parties. Therefore, everyone saw the dead baby wrapped in Zihe cart and Hu Mancao.

If you want to explain that Concubine Hua Gui didn't eat people, then you have to say that these things were found in her palace, in fact, it was for the technique of disgusting victory...

Concubine Hua Gui trembled all over, crying to death, "Your Majesty, you have to trust my concubine!"

In order to maintain her beauty, Concubine Hua had to risk herself at all costs. She naturally knew that she was being tricked by someone today, but she was not unprepared, but she absolutely couldn't do such a thing unless it was absolutely necessary.

She never expected, she never expected, that Nan Surou was such a vicious child. She knew little about Nan Surou, a little-known country child, and she underestimated her. It was just a calculation, and she was completely defeated. If you give her some more time...

There are no ifs in this world, Nan Surou knows Concubine Hua's ability, she will definitely kill with one blow.

However, Nan Surou is also very clear that according to Concubine Hua Gui's status in the emperor's mind, it is not so easy to bring her down. Even under such circumstances, Nan Surou still feels that Concubine Hua Gui will be reborn from adversity, so she just Watch, not join the ranks of adding insult to injury.

Tuoba Lian hated these people in front of him, with a tinge of desolation on his face, he begged bitterly: "Father, please don't wrong my mother, she is innocent!"

Before Concubine Hua Gui entered the palace, the Queen Mother didn't like her. She thought Concubine Hua Gui was too beautiful and scheming, which was really a disaster.

Now watching this farce, the Queen Mother frowned tightly, and she suddenly threw the teacup out of her hand.

The crisp sound of falling flowers brought an abrupt end to the noisy sound.

Everyone followed the prestige, and saw that the queen mother was pale, beating her chest and stamping her feet, as if she couldn't breathe, and Nanny Fang stepped forward to help her breathe.

Such a change made everyone startled.

The queen mother is getting old, and she has always been pampered and pampered. Occasionally, it is a small trouble to be awkward with the queen. This situation has never happened before.
