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

Chapter 353 The Emperor’s Means (2)
Xiao Xiangzi curled his lips, "When something like this happens, Mrs. Lin will definitely not have a good face. After all, it is not a glorious thing for the empress to lose her morality. It is not easy for the empress dowager to explain."

Jinxiu suddenly asked: "What about the queen? Did you go to the queen mother's palace to complain?"

Xiao Xiangzi shook his head, probably because he was nervous, and after running back and forth so many times, his forehead was full of sweat and his clothes were all soaked, "The emperor ordered that if you still want to keep her queen's seat, don't go To disturb the Empress Dowager, the slaves will not be able to guess what the Emperor is thinking."

When Qingchen heard this sentence, he was convinced that his thoughts were right, mutilating a concubine is a capital crime and the Lin family can't bear the stigma, even if it is for the family's reputation and not to be impeached by others, Lord Lin will definitely demand that the emperor To preserve the empress's reputation, in this way, the emperor will have a legitimate reason to take the opportunity to cut power.It's just that something happened in the dignified palace, but the emperor didn't even give her a chance to appeal for grievances, and the struggle for power really couldn't tolerate any love between husband and wife.

But at this time, she didn't have the extra mood to think about how the empress felt. She just felt that as long as things didn't develop in a bad direction, it would be fine. , Not every emperor can afford it.

Qingchen knew that at this moment, from the empress down to the court ladies, as long as they knew about this, they would not feel at peace in their hearts. Although they might have their own thoughts, no one wanted to cause a life-and-death catastrophe.

Relieved, seeing Xiao Xiangzi still standing there, she thought that there should be nothing to worry about, so she ordered: "Go and rest first, the small kitchen still has food for you, and you have been running all night." You worked hard too."

Xiao Xiangzi said with a smile: "Whatever the lady said, it's all a servant's job. Thank you for your understanding, the servant will go down first."

At this moment in the imperial study room, after Lord Lin left, Fu Guang was still very anxious. Seeing the emperor sitting on the dragon table with a calm expression and concentrating on drafting the imperial decree, the cold sweat on his body seemed to have opened a spring, and he couldn't stop it It seems to be going straight out.

Just now, he clearly explained the matter to the emperor, but the emperor suddenly ordered people to surround the queen's Duanfu Palace, and even sent someone to send Mr. Lin over. It is really hard to guess the emperor's mind. The moment before entering the imperial study room, the thunder suddenly became furious and smashed everything in the room.

After Mr. Lin came in, he saw that there was not even a place to kneel, and he saw that the emperor accused Zhonggong of being immoral, but his words were quite protective of the Lin family. After reading the confession of the little father-in-law, Mr. Lin also knew that the queen and Shu Guiyi had fought fiercely when she was in the palace, so even though she had doubts, but at this time, with all the witnesses and material evidence, he could no longer refute it.

What's more, if the case is requested to be re-tried, it will be known to everyone, and the reputation of the empress will be bad.Even if there is something hidden about this matter, besides Fu Guang, he really doesn't know who else can get to the bottom of this case.

It's not a question of ability, but facing the emperor, even if the queen is really wronged, who would dare to reverse the case for the queen if the emperor's thoughts are not allowed?Lin Ruhai is an old fox, and he knows well that it is not that important whether the empress did it or not, what matters is how the emperor will make a decision.If he really wanted to abolish the empress, he could simply issue an imperial decree, there was no need to cover this matter up and call him into the palace overnight.

In this way, he wanted to give the Lin family a chance, but Lin Ruhai knew in his heart that this chance would come at a price.
