Shocking Harem Road: The Legend of Concubine Yi

Chapter 161 The important clue is broken 4
At this time, King Yu already knew that he had absolutely no chance to stand up.

In his heart, his mother is his last resort, even though he knows that the possibility is very slim.But now, the dream that I have been striving for for half my life has come to an abrupt end!Stop at the time of nephew's rise, stop at the time of mother's abandonment.

"Cong'er," the Empress Dowager knelt down, helped up her tearful son, and asked, "Cong'er, the Empress Mother will ask you one last thing, tell the truth!"

King Yu nodded.

"Did you inject the poison on Xuan Yu's body?"

Mother's words suddenly woke up King Yu!

"Poison?" he asked.

"Did you do it?" Mother asked.

King Yu smiled up to the sky, and said, "Queen Mother, do you think that the only people staring at the throne are Yang Dezhang and Erchen?"

The Empress Dowager let go of her hand suddenly, and she looked at her son who was smiling through tears.

"Mother, the ministers just don't let the emperor give birth to heirs, but they haven't thought about killing him yet!" King Yu smiled sadly, he raised his head and stared at his mother, "Mother, there is someone else, have you forgotten?" Is that person never giving up, have you forgotten? "

The Empress Dowager stood up, looked back at the portraits, stared at the one of her husband, and sighed: "Your Majesty, everything is retribution!"

King Yu was silent.

The Empress Dowager said to him: "Cong'er, follow your mother back to the Palace of Compassion and Compassion to write a memorial to your crime! Xuanyu, he doesn't want to pursue your affairs anymore! Let's save everyone some last face!"

Then, King Yu raised his head, "Ah—" roared loudly!
Winners and losers have always been like this.

However, for King Yu, such an end was considered a great blessing!
That night, Ming Xuanyu received an apology from King Yu.

According to the Empress Dowager, King Yu did not clearly say what he had done, but only said that he had little talent and morality, and wanted to go home to study, so he could not continue to serve the king!
Ming Xuanyu also knew what grandma was thinking, so he issued an order the next day, which had the following three aspects:
First: According to King Yu’s request, remove all the errands of King Yu, revoke King Yu’s vassal state setting, order King Yu and his family to live in the mansion in the capital, and give Yu a mansion outside the city that once belonged to Yang Dezhang king.

Second: Order Prime Minister Zuo Tong to summon officials from the three provinces of Menxia, ​​Zhongshu and Shangshu to reconsider the withdrawal of the feudal domain.As a result, after three months of deliberation, on the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month, Ming Xuanyu issued an edict to abolish the vassal states in the territory, and all princes of the vassal states returned to Beijing to live. Something else.

Third, during the interrogation of Yang Dezhang's case, many untruths occurred. According to the secret investigation of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, some officials formed cliques for personal gain and corrupted the court, and they were punished.Order the Metropolitan Procuratorate and other three divisions to conduct a thorough investigation according to the attached list. Once verified, all officials involved in the case will be punished according to the law.If there is bias, the adjudicating officer will punish the crime together.

Fourth, thoroughly investigate the Ministry of Internal Affairs' accounts, files, torture records, etc., and rectify the Ministry of Internal Affairs system.Liu Huai, the second chief of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, was replaced by Zhang De, and all the personnel in the Shangbei Bureau were handed over to the Criminal Division of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for interrogation and punishment.

This edict did not mention what King Yu did at all, and the outside world did not know the inside story.However, every item of the edict is related to King Yu.However, no one knows what happened to King Yu's resignation except the people in the game.

In this way, the footprints of King Yu Ming Qincong disappeared from the court. It is said that he began to study Buddhist scriptures after returning home, and his family members all moved back to the capital within a month.

Ming Xuanyu kicked his uncle out of the court without bloodshed. Although he was doing his best, there were still people who were dissatisfied. They thought that such a treatment of King Yu was too light, and this person was Princess Antai Li Meier!

She was very aware of King Yu's behavior, so she said in front of Ming Xuanyu more than once that she hoped that King Yu could be punished with a felony.However, Ming Xuanyu said, "Killing people is not the best way to solve the problem. Besides, grandma is only a child like him. How can I bear to watch grandma send a white-haired person to a black-haired person?"

"Your Majesty, if you handle this matter like this, aren't you afraid that people in the future will follow suit? If treason can be forgiven like this, and everyone can think about seizing the throne, how will the world be stable?" Princess Antai said.

"Mei'er, why kill them all? I don't like killing people. This should be a blessing! It's good for everyone!" After he said this, he never mentioned the matter of King Yu to Princess Antai again.

The Empress Dowager just said to Hong Shanggong: "I never thought that Ai's family would be bitten by their own dog at this point!"

Just when Xinyi was temporarily relieved that Ming Xuanyu had successfully dealt with the matter of King Yu and the Ministry of Internal Affairs, she did not expect that the next incident would make her world collapse!
During the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet in the harem was being held in an inexplicable atmosphere. Concubine Zhen was sitting there surrounded by several other concubines chatting, but the queen was just silent as usual.Xinyi sat for a while, then bowed to the queen and left.

As the production period draws near, the battle to have a baby is also approaching its final stages.

The moon tonight reminded her of the Mid-Autumn Festival when she was a child.At that time, she often played in the garden, but her parents' voices of poetry were in her ears.When I look back occasionally, I see happy smiles on the faces of my parents.

Isn't the Mid-Autumn Festival supposed to be filled with family affection and warmth?Even the full moon has become rounder.

She stopped and looked at the bright moon in the nine days, her parents' laughter still seemed to echo in her ears, it was they who called her by her name.

I am also happy now, I believe her parents will also feel relieved for her!It's just my younger brother, when will he be able to do this?

Back at Yongning Palace, the palace servants reported that the emperor would come over after the banquet at Qingyuan Palace was over.

She washed up, changed into her pajamas, and sat at the window of the dormitory, with her face in her hands, looking at the bright moon.The silvery moonlight surrounded her softly, casting her shadow on the ground.

Tonight is a reunion night. Although the palace people cannot reunite with their families, she still let Qiaoer accompany everyone to chat and celebrate the festival. At this time, the palace people are laughing in the back garden.

She got up, put the Jiaoweiqin on the long table in front of the window, and raised her hand to caress it.

The sound of the piano is so melodious that even she would be intoxicated by it, let alone the people behind her!

Apart from her, he was the only one in this bedroom, and he didn't know how long he stood like this.She wouldn't have stopped if her fingers hadn't gotten caught on the strings at the climax of the tune.If it wasn't for such an unintentional stop, she would not have found him behind her.

There was someone behind him, but it wasn't Ming Xuanyu!
She didn't dare to turn her head, her hands were still powerlessly resting on the piano.And that person seemed to know that she was aware of his existence, so he walked towards her step by step.Every step he took was silent, but her heart was beating faster and faster.

He scratched his fingers on the piano, and then said to her: "You haven't changed in these years!"

"What are you doing here?" She lowered her head and asked, there was no need to ask how he got into the palace, it was a useless question.

He smiled silently, and said: "Long time no see, come to see you! You seem very disturbed, what are you afraid of?"

"I have nothing to fear, I'm not afraid of anything! With the emperor around, I'm not afraid of anything!" She raised her head and stared at him.

Perhaps it was because of those past events that she had complicated feelings towards Wuchen.At that time, for some reason, Wuchen was always partial to her, and every time she was punished by the nuns of the teacher, Wuchen would always find a way to help her.Over time, while being in awe of him, I also had a little reliance on him.Asking now, thinking of the past, whether she hates him or something in her heart, she can't tell.

He just glanced at her, then looked out the window, and after a moment of silence, he said: "Do you know what I regret most? It is to let Eunuch Nian take you away!"

Her hands slipped to her lap, she kept her head down because she didn't want him to see the panic in her heart.

There was silence again.

"I have something for you!" He took it out from his arms and put it in front of her eyes. She suddenly raised her head and grabbed it from his hand.

"Ziqing, what's wrong with Ziqing?" She held her brother's longevity lock with one hand, and tugged at his arm with the other, looking at him with tears in her eyes.

Wu Chen remained expressionless, and just said, "He asked me to give this thing to you, and told you to keep it well"!
"Did something happen to him? Tell me, tell me!" She grabbed his arm with both hands, but didn't let go.

He pulled her hand away, raised his hand to wipe the tears off her face, "I'm sorry!"

Sorry?sorry for what?Could it be that he was self-clearing——

She seemed to be going crazy, clutching the shirt on his chest tightly with both hands, staring at him and questioning: "Didn't you say that you wanted to protect him? Didn't you lie to me? You lied to me." Why? Why? Why?"

Wuchen closed his eyes and let her beat him. Her crying sound seemed to come from the distant past, but it was so close.

She knelt on the ground, propped her hands on the ground, tears dripped down on the floor tiles like rain.

The younger brother who followed behind him, with that immature face, that cute little hand, that, the only younger brother, just like that, just like that, is gone!

She hated herself so much, hated that she only cared about enjoying here, only cared about her little family, and never thought about how to save her brother as soon as possible!

Self-cleaning——

Wu Chen lowered her head, and she in front of her was as helpless as many years ago, as lonely as many years ago.

He didn't know how many people's blood had been on his hands, and he didn't even know why he felt differently towards her.Was it her eyes that filled him with endless guilt?

Betrayed, he had already betrayed the organization, perhaps, from the day she caused ripples in his dead heart, he was already a traitor.

He knew very well what would happen to the traitor.The person who used to be a partner died under his hands because of betrayal, so when it is his turn, who will execute the sentence?

She woke up suddenly, wiped away her tears, stared at him and asked, "Is it, did the organization do it? Didn't he follow you? What's going on?"

Wuchen was silent for a moment, and replied: "The people above told me to do it, and when I knew it, I had already—" His expression, for the first time, seemed to be apologetic.

"Above?" She asked, "Is it Nian Gonggong?"

"Xinyi, I don't know who is up there." He helped her up, "But, as far as I know, Eunuch Nian is just a person who does things."

"Where's Chunsheng? Is he too?" She stared at him and asked.

He shook his head and said, "I don't know. I don't know who is in this organization."

"And you, what do you do?" she asked.

Wuchen just smiled sadly, and said: "I am nothing, I follow orders!"

"Why did you kill my brother?" she asked.

She seems to have fully recovered from the grief of losing a loved one, much to Wuchen's surprise.

Wuchen looked at her, those clear eyes had become strange to him when they first met.

After a long silence, he said: "Xinyi, you remember. Your parents, and Ziqing, were all killed by the organization!"
