The medical concubine arrives: Prince, don't be arrogant

Chapter 342 Scapegoat

"Later, I inquired carefully. There were rumors outside that she was able to curry favor with the queen through the birthday banquet of the queen's niece Fu Wanzhen. The surprise dance that was presented that day surprised many people at the banquet."

"It is said that in order to get a place for Fu Wanzhen's birthday banquet, she racked her brains and paid a lot of money to buy off the housekeeper of Fu's residence, just to perform a dance at this place where celebrities gather."

Fan Xianshu's intention was very simple, she wanted to get a wealthy son-in-law for herself at Fu Wanzhen's birthday banquet.

For this kind of rich man, Wang Yuetong neither praises nor criticizes, but thinks that she bets all her treasures on a man, which is really unreliable.

"When she married into the Grand Scholars' residence, the Grand Scholars' mother was unwilling to die."

This matter spread all over the capital at that time, even King Jing had heard about it.

"However, for some reason later, she happily accepted this daughter-in-law of birth and status, and on the day she passed the door, she welcomed the guests in with a smile on her face."

"If I remember correctly, the empress went to her wedding banquet that day, but before that, the empress had no intersection with the Grand Scholar's family."

Therefore, without the help of the queen, no matter how hard Fan Xianshu worked, it would be impossible for Fan Xianshu to fly so high.

After learning about these things, Wang Yuetong also understood why Fu Wanzhen targeted her so much.

Not to mention that Fan Xianshu stole the limelight at her birthday banquet, she later flew on a branch and became a phoenix, and then lost half of her aunt's favor.

No matter who this matter is placed on, it will inevitably make people feel uncomfortable.

"Based on this, Fan Xianshu may be willing to take the blame for the queen."

Wang Yuetong said after contemplating for a while with her eyes closed.

The queen has great kindness to her, and she firmly holds her destiny in her hands.

Therefore, in order to please the queen, she would pretend to admit that she was the culprit, and then the queen would find a way to bail her out.

However, whether the queen is willing to take the risk of bailing her out depends on the queen's will.

"No, she couldn't be willing to stand up and take the blame."

After a long while, I only heard Jing Wang's deep voice on the side saying.

"She is such a scheming woman, it is impossible to do such a stupid thing. I think she should see very clearly, the queen is already in danger, how can she be safe?"

King Jing thought that she knew very well in her heart that as long as she pleaded guilty, she would die.

"What's more, she is now the wife of a bachelor. Even if she doesn't rely on the queen, at least she can keep food and clothing for the rest of her life."

"But if she pleads guilty and the queen bails her out as promised, then she will no longer be the wife of a scholar. Moreover, her future life will only be in hiding, and it is impossible to enjoy the luxury of a noble lady in the capital." Prosperity and wealth."

Hearing King Jing's careful analysis, Wang Yuetong thought about it carefully, and felt that what he said was more reasonable.

Fan Xianshu is a thoughtful person, but everything she does is just to make herself live a better life. Although she has a desire for pleasure, she must not have the intention of harming others for no reason.

This point can be seen from Fan Xianshu's various actions before leaving the cabinet.

"According to what the lord said, Fan Xianshu was forced to plead guilty? Or, is it the queen who put this hat on her?"

"If this is the case, then we only need to find Fan Xianshu now, and we can use some bargaining chips in exchange for her defection."

Since Fan Xianshu is not willing to take the blame, then this matter will be easier to handle.

"My lord is still very thoughtful... However, the letter says that Fan Xianshu has been arrested and taken into the palace, and should be in the dungeon right now, waiting to be punished!"

Wang Yuetong glanced at the letter again and confirmed it.

"Don't worry, our people are watching from the Queen's side, and no one has come to report at the moment, which means that nothing happened to Fan Xianshu."

Hearing this, Wang Yuetong breathed a sigh of relief, but in his heart he looked at King Jing a little more differently.

"The prince seems to be able to predict the future, and he can prepare for everything as soon as possible."

Although he always said "take one step and see one step", but every time he was prepared in advance.

Now that I think about it, it is precisely because I have made complete preparations that I can say such things so calmly, right?
"Recently, you don't have a good appetite, but this meal doesn't suit your appetite?"

Seeing that Wang Yuetong was a little absent-minded during the meal, King Jing leaned forward slightly and asked.

Seeing him getting closer, Wang Yuetong couldn't help but think of the embarrassing incident just now, and was distracted for a while.

"I heard that eating too many sweet and greasy things for a few days will affect your appetite. So, do you want to try another taste?"

"No, there's no need. There's nothing wrong with this meal, it's just that I've been less active recently, so I eat less."

After recovering, and looking at the barely touched food on the table, Wang Yuetong also felt that he had lost his appetite recently.

"It seems that this matter will be resolved soon..."

King Jing murmured softly as if talking to himself.

After a while, Wang Yuetong finally understood the meaning of his words.

Only when the queen's matter is resolved quickly, can she take the opportunity to "get better" slowly, and then she can go back to Huichuntang with the flow.

Then, with more activities, the appetite will be restored.

After thinking it over, Wang Yuetong couldn't help lowering his head and smiling.

Why is this thought of respecting the king so meticulous?
At the same time, he wanted to delay for a few days and told her to take a good rest at home.

At the same time, he wanted to resolve this matter as soon as possible, so that she could recover her appetite earlier.

Thinking of this, Wang Yuetong's heart twitched sweetly, but at the same time, there was still a bit of secret joy hidden in her heart.

It is really rare to see something that makes King Jing feel in a dilemma!
In the early morning of the next day, on the way from the mansion to the morning court, Wang Jing ran into some ordinary people blocking cars on the street.

Without any suspense, they came to inquire about Princess Jing's condition again.

Today King Jing personally got off the carriage and told them about the situation of Princess Jing in detail.

Not long after, there were new rumors about Wang Yuetong's condition.

It is said that Concubine Jing's condition suddenly deteriorated a lot this morning, King Jing is very sad, and now he can't wait to go to court early and spend all his time with Concubine Jing.

But the murderer who hurt Concubine Jing hasn't received the punishment he deserved, so he had to go to the palace himself to ask the emperor and empress for an explanation.

Today, as soon as I went to the morning court, I saw that the emperor looked haggard, as if he had aged a few years overnight.

Different from yesterday's situation, today the emperor did not mention the assassin of King Jing's mansion, but mentioned the murder of Princess Jing's Fengyi Palace as soon as he came up.

"Your Majesty, have you seen the letter sent by the Empress to the Palace yesterday?"
