Chapter 169: Turning Down
Chapter 169: Turning Down
Shen Muchen was very angry today. Not only did he hear from his servants say that Mo Qingcheng and Shen Mushu met in the back garden a few days ago, but also saw Shen Mushu looking at his woman with affection when they were convicted today, which made Shen Muchen endure again and again, so he was more determined to want to Take Mo Qingcheng for yourself, and the only way to do this is to kill the other party.
Shen Muchen thought that he had realized early enough that he had the previous belt, and all this was also a conspiracy.
It's just that in this conspiracy, he doesn't know whether it's right or wrong to involve Mo Qingcheng. What's more, he was not going to give Shen Mushu any chance to defend and directly sentence him for the crime of adultery, but he ignored the Empress Dowager Zhuang. How could the Empress Dowager Zhuang sit idly by and ignore this matter? She was really stupid.
However, what makes it difficult for him to grasp is that the Empress Dowager Zhuang's current view of Mo Qingcheng may be difficult to protect her, which inevitably gives Shen Muchen a headache. His plan can obviously be fatal, but now he is involved in so many things for no reason. What should he do?
Looking at another farce in front of him, Shen Muchen actually thought of going with Shen Mushu with the mentality of procrastinating time.
"Your Majesty, Li Meiren must have been exposed by others and afraid of being convicted by the emperor. Please break it quickly and return peace to the harem as soon as possible."
I was thinking about procrastinating the time before, but now the queen Hong Jin began to urge herself. Shen Muchen stared at Hong Jin tirelessly and said, "This matter is related to my reputation as the mother of Luo Yuguo. Won't you justify it? Or is what Li Meiren said true? Are you already afraid?
Suddenly, an idea rushed into Shen Muchen's mind. Before, Mo Qingcheng had been saying that he would ascend to the queen's position to really be with himself. I don't know how long he has been looking forward to this day, and the current queen has also been involved in it. It's better to take this opportunity to abolish the queen and let Mo Qingcheng ascend again. In the back position, isn't this an easy thing?
The more he thought about it, the more Shen Muchen wanted to know what the queen of Li Mei's population had done, and he couldn't help looking forward to it.
"I dare not. I just think that Li Meiren is in the cholera harem. If the emperor still wants to let her go, I'm afraid it will not affect the reputation of the concubine alone, but the royal face problem, emperor!"
Queen Hongjin dared to refute Shen Muchen, so she had to raise the problem to another height to make everyone afraid.
"What the queen said is that the mourning family and everyone all know that Li Meiren deceived the emperor and deceiving the mourning family, so let's condemn her. Saying more will only waste time. The mourning family needs to rest. Your Majesty, make up your mind!"
The hot taro was suddenly thrown into Shen Muchen's hand. He originally wanted to make a decision later, but now he is in a dilemma.
But then again, if it is handed over to the empress dowager to make a decision, she will definitely support the queen. After all, the queen's choice is determined by the empress dowager, and if she really listens to the empress dowager's words to directly convict Li Meiren without pursuing the queen, then she will not be able to abolish the queen. How can she fulfill her promise to Qingcheng?
Shen Muchen thought for a moment, and finally frowned and said, "Mother, Li Meiren's matter is of great importance. Li Meiren did commit the crime of bullying the king, but we don't know the reason. Don't we give Li Meiren a chance to complain?"
Seeing that the emperor was willing to help Li Meiren, the Empress Dowager Zhuang knew that the emperor would not stop, so she nodded and said, "Well, Hongjin, you can talk to Li Meiren, but you are both people in this harem and should solve problems for the emperor instead of increasing trouble for the emperor. If you two It's best to understand the words of Ai's family. If you don't understand, if you say a result, you're welcome. Do you hear Li Xi'er?
Empresses later said these words to Li Meiren and Empress Hongjin, but in the end, they blatantly threatened Li Meiren. Everyone present knew that Empress Zhuang favored Hongjin and knew that they did not say anything.
Li Meiren was threatened by the Empress Dowager Zhuang, and her originally unruly face suddenly began to think about it, mostly because she was afraid of the Empress Dowager Zhuang and began to think about the gains and losses.
The emperor was eager and didn't want Li Meiren to be soft at all, so he said to Li Meiren, "You don't have to be afraid. The empress dowager just let you two tell the truth, not deception. The empress dowager is also the lord of this harem, and so am I. Both of us will be fair for you. If you say the truth, I I will also deal with it impartially and not let anyone be wronged, but I will never let go of anyone who disturbs the harem.
With the emperor's words, Li Meiren suddenly became more confident. She knew that the emperor did not like Hongjin very much, and Hongjin only had the backer of Empress Dowager Zhuang. As for her family, she should not be afraid of. Since the emperor supported herself, she must make Hongjin uncomfortable and dared to take medicine to harm herself. I must give a tooth for an eye for an eye.
"Yes, Your Majesty, listen to me slowly."
Li Meiren began to recall the previous events. "I said before that I wanted to rectify Mo Qingcheng because the emperor ignored me when I needed him most. So I went to the palace of Mo Qingcheng. I deliberately wanted to quarrel with Mo Qingcheng that day, but Mo Qingcheng didn't do anything to me. Probably, I was careless and burned my hand by Mo Qingcheng's boiling water, so I was very angry that I wanted to rush up and tear up with Mo Qingcheng. Unexpectedly, her maid came up and took me directly to me. When I went out, I didn't stand still and squatted on the ground.
"At that time, the palace already knew that I was pregnant, and the emperor also sent a lot of people to protect me. When they saw my pale face, they thought that I had moved the fetus, so they hugged me to be in the palace. But I was not pregnant, and why did I have a pregnancy? The servants wanted to help me find a royal doctor, but I had nothing to do and was afraid that others would know, so I asked Chu Haiyu to help me get rid of them. Then I took a break and slept until the night. That night, I and Chu Haiyu enjoyed the moon in the yard, and then A father-in-law came to bring me a midnight snack.
Only then did I hear that the key people concentrate one after another, and then I heard Li Meiren continue to say, "I only had a knot with Mo Qingcheng during the day, and someone sent me a midnight snack at night, so I began to doubt Mo Qingcheng, and I think that if I was pregnant with Longzi, everyone must be jealous of me and injustice, so I dared not eat that bowl of porridge.
And the second day after my father-in-law left, I came up with a plan to make Mo Qingcheng fall into a big fight, but I had to give up my current favor. Later, Chu Haiyu advised me not to hide it from the emperor and the empress dowager, so that the emperor would not be favored with me and I could not conceive a dragon species. When things are bound to be exposed after October pregnancy, she advised me to take this opportunity to bring Mo Qingcheng into the water.
Now that I think about it, I feel that this must be the queen's conspiracy. She and I are not interested in Mo Qingcheng, and she has long known that I lied from the eyeliner she arranged. Naturally, she hopes that I can expose it in front of the emperor quickly, and the emperor's attitude towards Mo Qingcheng has always made the queen jealous. She must have been early. There was a plan, but I just refused to do it for a long time, but after knowing about my fake pregnancy, I wanted to kill two birds with this matter. Otherwise, why did the queen urge Chu Haiyu to persuade me to blame Mo Qingcheng? It was clear that this matter had nothing to do with Mo Qingcheng, but Chu Haiyu could suddenly think of Mo Qingcheng. It doesn't have to say that my brain must have been flooded at that time, and I didn't see their conspiracy in time.
When Empress Hongjin heard that Li Meiren mentioned Chu Haiyu again, she felt that all the clues of the matter were with Chu Haiyu. She must not let everyone know the reason, and naturally began to be furious.
"You talk nonsense. Look, I won't break your mouth!"
The queen was still in place, but her voice roared penetratingly. Li Meiren shrank back in fear. It was at this time that Shen Muchen waited, and stood majestically in front of Li Meiren, and a cold light swept through her eyes, so that the queen Hong Jin, who was about to jump on, immediately stopped her feet.
"Look at what you look like now and how it's different from rural women. Don't forget your identity. You are still in charge of the harem now."
The emperor's words are very lethal. Although these words did not roar out but float out of his teeth, Hongjin felt that the emperor seemed to beat her to ashes.
The queen was afraid of the emperor, and naturally pleaded repeatedly. Then the emperor waved his hand and said, "Shut up. I think you are obviously guilty. Stay aside and deal with you later!"
The queen didn't dare to speak and stood beside with thousands of precautions, and under the skirt that everyone couldn't see, her legs began to tremble.
"Li Mei continued, I just said that I would be fair for you. If anyone stops me, I won't be polite!"
Shen Muchen said this sentence to the Empress Dowager Zhuang. Naturally, he did not dare to contradict the Empress Dowager Zhuang head-on, but now the queen suddenly became a scapegoat. Everyone at the scene heard what the emperor said clearly, and the Empress Dowager Zhuang could not refute the emperor again, and it was suddenly very quiet.
When Shen Muchen saw that the effect had been achieved, he said to Li Meiren, "Go on, I want to see what the queen has done, so that she can still say so calmly that she wants to take charge of the harem."
Li Meiren had a smile in her eyes. It seemed that her words had aroused the emperor's view of the queen, which was not too bad. Her original purpose was to let everyone see the queen's true face. Even if she exposed her guilt, she would make the queen's life difficult.
