The Six Palaces of Favorites: The Black-bellied Emperor's Cold Concubine

Chapter 1269: Concubine Li's Dark Trick (16)
Gu Yunfeng hurriedly said: "You go, leave this place to Wei Chen to take care of, the princess will be fine."

"It's time to work." After Qingchen finished speaking, he got up and walked outside.

She came to the imperial study room alone, and stood on the porch waiting for Fuquan to go in to communicate, but Fuquan didn't have much time to go in, but came out and said softly: "Empress, why don't you go back and rest first, the emperor is angry at the moment, saying that he doesn't want to See anyone."

Qingchen said softly: "It's okay, I can wait here, and I will always let the emperor calm down."

She stood on the porch for an hour, there was no movement in the imperial study room, but at this time, the outside of the imperial study room gradually became lively. Mr. Mu, Mr. Ji, and many court officials entered the palace and knelt behind her. , Waiting for the emperor to summon them, they automatically stood in two rows, the number of them was even, Qingchen knew that if Concubine Li made a move, they might have a more favorable handle than her.

Another hour passed, and under the scorching heat, she stood there as if she was in a stove, her clothes were drenched with sweat, and the sweltering heat made her almost faint.But no matter what, she had to persevere, the more she suffered, the more balanced the emperor's heart would be.

Just when she was feeling depressed and uncomfortable, with a creak, Fuquan opened the door of the imperial study and walked out, bowing and saying: "The empress is suffering, the emperor wants you to come in."

Qingchen swayed, Fuquan hurriedly reached out to support her, "Mother, are you okay?"

"I'm fine." Qingchen ignored the quarrels of the courtiers behind him, and stepped into the threshold while supporting Fuquan's hand.

Fuquan looked back at those people, and sighed softly. This scene is so similar to the scene where Concubine Shu forced the former queen. I hope the queen can find a way as always and use her wisdom to resolve this fight.

Qingchen entered the East Nuan Pavilion, and saw the emperor standing under the window, quietly looking at the quarreling ministers outside.

She saluted respectfully, but Xiao Jun didn't turn around, but said in a calm voice: "Chen'er, Rong'er is also my prince, he is dead, should I seek justice for him? Even if it's not for him , look at those people outside, are they willing to let me go and let the prince go? How are you going to keep Yixuan's crown prince in good faith?"

Qingchen said resolutely: "Firstly, they are still children, and they are working hard on the law. Even if it is adult manslaughter, the execution can be postponed. Secondly, the courtiers want evidence. If they insist on forcing the emperor to abolish the prince Or let Yixuan pay for his life, then come up with reliable evidence. Otherwise, the concubine will not give in easily!"

"Do you really think that I have no evidence?" The emperor turned around and said with a frown: "I have asked Wanyue and the others. Heng'er saw what Yixuan did with his own eyes. He can testify that it was the crown prince who pushed Rong'er down. of."

Qingchen snorted softly, "Heng'er's words are not trustworthy."

The emperor asked her back, "Why?"

Qingchen looked into his eyes, and smiled sarcastically, "The emperor knows why, and if he doesn't say something, it doesn't mean that the concubine doesn't know it. The emperor is not clear about the means by which Heng'er was brought into his own palace to be raised, and what the purpose is, so Heng'er's words are not trustworthy. A prince who covets the position of crown prince, how could he not make trouble, just based on this, his words Just can't believe it."

Xiao Jun looked at her firmly, "So you are going to fight me to the end? Chen'er, I don't know that maybe this matter is Rong'er's fault, but after all, Jinghan has no life in danger, and Rong'er is not guilty of death." , Yixuan, he did make a big mistake, it's not that I won't let him go, it's because the law of Daqian won't let him go, and it's because those people outside need me to give them a fair explanation!"

"The concubine doesn't think so. By keeping Yixuan's crown prince, the emperor is saving the lives of Qi'er and Heng'er, and also keeping the court safe..."

"Do you think I can't think about these things because I'm angry?" The emperor interrupted her: "I will worry about these things, but will those people outside?"

"Not all those people outside are just helping Rong'er!"

When the emperor and empress were arguing endlessly, they suddenly heard an old and majestic voice outside asking, "It's very lively outside the imperial study today. It's a hot day. Aren't you afraid of heatstroke when you kneel here?"

Then, I heard the officials outside shouting, "Auspicious ancestors, ancestors, thousand years old, thousand years old!"

"That's right, if I don't live long, how can I see your loyalty? Lu Yao knows that horsepower has seen people's hearts for a long time, and you really make me, an old woman, look at me with admiration." The empress dowager's words couldn't tell whether there was any sarcasm , but all the people kneeling below bowed their heads and did not dare to look at her.

The empress glanced at each other, and hurriedly came out to greet them.

"Grandson, grandson's daughter-in-law pay respects to the ancestor, the ancestor is auspicious." The empress saluted with a smile on her face, and the emperor stepped forward to support her and said, "Ancestor, why are you here in this hot weather?"

The empress dowager didn't look at them directly, she shook off the emperor's hand and snorted coldly, and ignored him, the emperor felt a little ashamed, so he had to withdraw his hand embarrassingly.

The Empress Dowager stared at the people below and asked, "Tell me, why are you kneeling here?"

No one answered for a long time. Mu Jingzhi would not be so stupid as to take the lead in playing this kind of question. The Empress Dowager also didn't want him to come forward at this time. The ancestors saw that everyone just bent down and knelt down and refused to speak. , pointing to Mr. Wang in the household department and asked: "Mr. Wang, tell me, why?"

The Lord Wang laughed a few times, and hurriedly replied: "Old Ancestor, I heard... I heard that His Highness the Fifth Prince was pushed off the rockery by the crown prince and was severely injured, and unfortunately died. I feel that the Crown Prince must be held accountable for this matter." , So, so come to help His Highness the Fifth Highness ask for an explanation."

The Empress Dowager said with a majestic look: "How did I hear that Rong'er accidentally fell down when she was playing hide-and-seek with the princes? Huh? Could it be that the news about me in the palace is not as good as that of you guys?" Is the foreign minister's information accurate?"

Mr. Wang wiped the sweat from his forehead, and stammered perfunctorily: "Yeah, maybe..."

"Perhaps? Since you don't even know the truth, why are you kneeling here? The prince belongs to the emperor. How to uphold justice for Rong'er should be decided by the emperor. Why bother you to intervene?"

The empress dowager's crutches slammed on the polished marble floor of the corridor, making a heavy sound, and asked sharply, "What do you want to do? You dare to persecute the emperor without knowing the truth. Is this what loyal ministers do? ? Don't think that my old lady doesn't know your intentions, you are not seeking justice for the fifth prince, you are only doing it for your own selfishness!"

Everyone below hurriedly kowtowed their heads again, "I dare not wait!"
