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

Chapter 607 Conspiracy to seize the emperor's heir (8)
Yao Shuyi is not in good health today, so she didn't go to the dinner party. Xin Chongrong was afraid that no one would take care of the second prince, so she stayed in Yao Shuyi's palace to help, so they didn't know that the first prince was infected with acne .

The two came to the Ziwei Hall, saw the emperor and the three concubines were there, not knowing what happened, Yao Shuyi went up to greet everyone, and then asked suspiciously: "Your Majesty, are you calling your concubines over at this time? But what's the matter?"

Xiao Jun actually didn't really believe that this matter had something to do with Yao Shuyi. Because of her heart disease, this woman seldom interacted with others, and she never tried her best to compete for favor. Except for Xin Chongrong, she went to Qingchen and Ye Hanyu walked over there. Ever since she had the second prince, she seldom went out and devoted herself to taking care of the children. How could she have such evil thoughts because of having the second prince?
Although it was an interrogation, Xiao Jun's tone was not harsh. Firstly, he didn't believe her, and secondly, he was concerned about her condition.

"Yao Shuyi, the eldest prince was diagnosed with pox tonight. Someone testified that you ordered people to bring in unclean clothes from outside the palace, which polluted the eldest prince's clothes and caused the eldest prince to contract the disease. Now the testimony The physical evidence is all there, what else can you say?"

Yao Shuyi was stunned for a moment when she heard the words, then she glanced at Xin Chongrong, who was extremely astonished, and hurriedly knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, my concubine has been wronged, and my concubine is very good, what are you doing to murder the eldest prince? There must be someone here The reason?"

Concubine Li sneered from the side and said: "Yao Shuyi, there is a girl in the Punishment Department who confessed that you did not hesitate to harm the eldest prince because you wanted the second prince to become the emperor's only prince. Think that’s a reason too.”

When Concubine Li said this, she was just trying to attack her heart, and wanted to see how Yao Shuyi would react, but if she had the slightest thought in this way, she would show her flaws at this time, so that Concubine Li could bite to death because she wanted to harm the eldest prince.

Yao Shuyi didn't lose her sense of control because of Concubine Li's harshness, but instead smiled wryly: "Your Majesty, this reason seems to be sufficient, but my concubine is not afraid to say something sad, the emperor hugged the second prince to you." The upbringing by the concubine is nothing more than feeling pitiful to the concubine. The concubine himself dies without knowing how long it will last. Even if the second prince becomes the only prince of the emperor, so what?

The concubine was afraid that she would not be able to wait for the day when the second prince grew up, so she asked Xin Chongrong to help take care of the children and not cut off their mother-child relationship. Feeling lonely and miserable.The concubine didn't expect to gain any glory beyond the reach of ordinary people by relying on the second prince, but only hoped that he could grow up safely.

Your majesty, don't say that the concubine would not do such a thing, even Xin Chongrong, the concubine dared to vouch for her that she would not do such a thing.Oftentimes when Xin Chongrong talked to her concubine, she always said that she only hoped that the second prince could be an idle prince like His Royal Highness, be happy and safe, and ask for nothing else.

Not to mention what the two of us think, but just talking about the eldest prince's accident, we are the first people to suspect, no matter how stupid the concubine is, she will not be so stupid, I beg the emperor to see clearly. "

The person who said these words was sore, Xiao Jun's face was also moved, and Xin Chongrong also knelt aside and said: "Sister Yao said that when the concubine gave birth to the second prince, she was close to death, and she knew the hardships of being a mother. Knowing how difficult it is to give birth to a child, the concubine wished to be by his side to take care of him day and night. No one except Xiao Jieyu could truly understand the feeling of loving a child. If the concubine loves her child, then How could he go so far as to harm the eldest prince? Don't he fear retribution to the second prince?

Your Majesty, there are some things that Yao Shuyi dare not say, but concubines dare to say, concubines begging the emperor to issue an order, no matter whether Yuner has such qualifications, begging the emperor never to canonize the second prince as a prince, concubine as the second prince I swear, elder sister Yao and concubines never harmed the eldest prince, we were really wronged, please learn from the emperor! "

Xin Chongrong's words made the already quiet Xiaohua hall even more quiet. She asked the emperor not to canonize the second prince as a prince forever. Doesn't this determination explain everything?The second prince is her only hope, and she dares to swear on the life of the child, which is enough to show that she has a clear conscience.

Sometimes, clarifying the facts is as simple as staying away from power, but it is impossible for many people.

Seeing that the emperor's face was much calmer than before, Qingchen knew that this was the best time to speak, so he knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, there are some things that my concubine wanted to say before Yao Shuyi and Xin Chongrong came, but I'm afraid Thinking that the concubine was deliberately protecting her, which made the emperor suspicious, so she didn't dare to say that the emperor should believe that Yao Shuyi is innocent now, right?
How could the second prince become the emperor's only prince?Didn't the imperial physician just now diagnose that Lin Wanyi is pregnant?What's more, when the emperor is in a strong dragon body, the draft is about to start in the spring, and the royal heirs will flourish in the future. Even if Yao Shuyi killed the eldest prince, can she kill all the princes?
If she has such thoughts, how can she ensure that other people don't have such thoughts?She harmed other people's children, and when she has a concubine of the emperor's heir, she will also harm her children. The means of harming others are hard to guard against. How can Yao Shuyi ensure that the second prince can save himself from danger every time?This is not planning for the future of the second prince, it is clearly harming him.It is precisely because Xin Chongrong understands this truth that he begged the emperor to never make the second prince the prince. This is the heart of a mother. "

Up to now, Xiao Jun is very clear that since Xin Chongrong and Yao Shuyi are not interested in the crown prince, they really have no reason to harm the eldest prince, so they immediately ordered: "Let the Punishment Division severely examine the person who framed Yao Shuyi." The little girl, and the little father-in-law who bought it, this time I must find out the person behind the scenes who intends to harm the eldest prince."

Then he said to the three people kneeling on the ground: "It's cold on the ground, you all get up." Seeing that Yao Shuyi's face was still a little unhappy, the emperor comforted him again: "Don't be afraid, I am not a foolish person, and I will not be innocent. I have wronged you innocently. I know you are selfless, and I feel relieved that you and Xin Chongrong can be so harmonious. However, I did not take the second prince to you to educate you, not because I pity you, but because I think you have outstanding morals and deserve Taking up the important task of educating the prince will not disappoint me. Don’t say those self-defeating words in the future. Although you have a heart disease, your illness is not that serious. As long as you maintain a peaceful and optimistic state of mind, you can grow old with me forever. "
