Chapter 687 Abandoned Prince (3)

"Since Xiao Qi has gone to the execution department, he should stay there from now on.

When I turn back, I will say hello to the Ministry of Punishment, and let them take Xiao Qi to practice well. "

The emperor felt that he owed a lot to his son these years. Since he was able to stay in the Ministry of Punishment all the time, it showed that the people in the Ministry of Punishment were quite satisfied with him.

That being the case, it might as well let him, as Lao Tzu, personally issue an imperial edict to let Xiao Qiming stay at the Ministry of Punishment in a legitimate manner.

In this way, it can not only make up for Xiao Qi, but also indirectly tell those who looked down on Xiao Qi in the past, even if this son is not favored, he is still his son after all, how can they just let them look down on him.

Concubine De was overjoyed when she heard what the emperor said.

"The concubine first thanked the emperor for Xiao Qi's kindness."

This easy-to-satisfy mentality made the emperor very happy. All the sons under his knees wanted to sit in his position, and all the concubines in the harem wanted to sit in the queen's position. Concubine De and Xiao Qi's requirements are so low, just giving Xiao Qi a certain official position can make them happy.

Thinking of this, the emperor immediately pretended to be casual and asked Concubine De,

"My dear concubine, what do you think of what happened in the Golden Harmony Hall today?"

Concubine De, who was preparing vegetables for the emperor, couldn't help being stunned when she heard the words, and then said with a smile, "The emperor is making fun of my concubine, a concubine who is a harem woman, how can I have any opinion."

Concubine De is not stupid, what happened in the palace of Jinhe today is not only related to the queen, but also related to the prince, how can she forget it casually.

"There are no outsiders here, so you can say whatever you want in your heart, and I won't argue with you."

The emperor immediately felt better when he heard the words. In the past, whenever the women in the harem heard that there was something wrong with the empress, they would all fall into trouble and wish to drag her down from the empress position immediately. When the concubine heard that she asked about it, she chose not to talk about it.

"The emperor really wants to hear the thoughts in the hearts of his concubines"

Concubine De saw that the emperor was not just joking, she immediately stopped the cloth dish in her hand and asked the emperor.

"That's natural. Could it be that Concubine Ai still thinks I'm joking with you?" The Emperor nodded seriously, Concubine De then said after seeing this.

"According to my concubine's humble opinion, today's incident may be the fault of the Queen's sister and His Highness the Crown Prince, and the Emperor should punish them both emotionally and rationally. Otherwise, I'm afraid it will be difficult to give an explanation to the officials in the court and the people of Yunyue Kingdom. .

As for the second young lady of the Bai family, she was the victim in this incident, and the emperor should give her some generous compensation. "

Concubine De deliberated and said what was in her heart one by one. Seeing that the emperor's expression didn't change much, she couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that what she said was quite in line with the emperor's wishes.

"Then how does Concubine Ai think to punish the Queen and the Crown Prince?"

The emperor was indeed very satisfied with Concubine De's answer, and both punishment and reward were on point.

"It depends on the emperor's will. If the emperor thinks that the empress and His Royal Highness need to be beaten severely, then the punishment will naturally be heavier.

If the emperor feels that the circumstances are justifiable, then the punishment can be lighter. "

Concubine De's words can be summed up in one sentence, light punishment and heavy punishment are all in the emperor's mind.
