Palace Prisoner

Chapter 69 A move shocked the world

The cold bluestone floor tiles show many graceful figures.

"I want to see the emperor."

Xiao Yuanqi is no longer pleasant to them. On the contrary, every inch of his eyebrows is violent. He snorted coldly and slapped heavily on the table, which shocked him.

"The harem has always been in harmony, but now it has such means. Who is unfavorable to the noble concubine? Huh?" His eyes passed through every panicked face, and finally no one made a sound.

Xiao Yuanqi did not turn around in it. His eyes were sharp and he stared at these concubines, and he did not let go of any gap. After a long time, Wang Shu stepped forward and replied, "I'm afraid it was an accident that the noble concubine's sister fell into the water. I and others walked behind and didn't see the details. When I heard the noble concubine's sister's call, my sister had fallen into the water."

This is true. Wang Shu really can't tolerate Shen Sirong, but today's banquet was organized by her. How can she escape if something happens to Shen Sirong? Even the medicine given by the masked woman was secretly given, and she dared to use it without falling into her deeds. She disdained such a clumsy method.

Wang Shu's calmness made Xiao Yuanqi more hesitant, but the clarity in her eyes could not panic. It's not Wang Shu, who is that?

Seeing that the high-ranking concubine in the harem explained, the rest of the concubines tried their best to get rid of the relationship. When it was Chen Yunyun's turn, Chen Yunyun thought for a little and said, "Your Majesty, the closest people to the noble concubine at that time were Princess Lanxi and Concubine Wu, and behind them were the concubine and Zeng Mei, but the concubine really didn't know it."

After hearing this, many concubines in the hall were suspicious, and only Wang Shu snorted coldly: "My sister's move is really wonderful. If you explain it yourself, the emperor will believe you a little more. Ha ha, you sisters should also be honest and clear about the situation first.

Wang Shu's sarcasm made Chen Yunyun's eyebrows quite uneasy. Seeing this, Zeng Min, who was beside her, quickly came out to speak for her: "Your Majesty, Yun's sister's words are true. At that time, my concubine and Yun's sister were standing behind the noble concubine, but my concubine was talking and laughing with Zhang Meiren behind her, and I never saw the noble concubine. The situation when falling into the water.

Chen Yunyun was naturally very grateful when she saw Zeng Min's words to help her. Xiao Yuanqi's eyes darkened and swallowed back what she wanted to say. Zeng Meicai just meant that she didn't know whether Yun Concubine pushed Shen Sirong?

After a question, no one said a clue. Xiao Yuanqi looked at the group of concubines who shouted that they were innocent and laughed angrily instead.

The next day, on the Taihe Hall, the solemn dragon pattern emitted a piercing light. On the dragon chair, Xiao Yuanqi stared at the following many courtiers, and his tightened eyebrows showed the anger of the emperor who wanted to endure.

"Since all the Aiqings have known about the northwest border, I will not say much. The six departments will perform their respective duties and be ready to fight."

"Weichen will do his best to no longer be grateful to the emperor. Long live my emperor."

Every morning has come to an end, but Xiao Yuanqi has no intention of letting them go. He looked at the unknown minister and said, "My dear, I have something to ask. Is my harem a family matter or a state affair?

Seeing Xiao Yuan open his mouth, no one dared to answer at will. The well-informed had long known that the emperor was for Shen Guifei falling into the water today. Since you have to care, you have to follow the holy will.

"Chen Taifu. Although you are Changli's Zuo Cheng and my enlightenment teacher, I have always respected you the most. Today, I just need to ask one question, is it a state affair or a family matter that happened to the prince in Shen's womb?

Xiao Yuanqi's eyesight is not good, and he rarely shows his emotions, but today is different. He just wants to force this group of ministers to clear up his relationship with the concubines, so even a lot of punishment will not shake the foundation of the court.

When Chen Xun was asked, he naturally couldn't answer. He hesitated for a long time and said, "The prince is the future crown prince of my Changli Kingdom, and naturally it is a national matter."

Seeing Xiao Yuanqi nodding, Chen Xun knew that he had taken the right move. If he had just said it was a family matter, I'm afraid he would be reprimanded.

When Chen Xun returned, Xiao Yuanqi also called Wang Chu out. Wang Chu was so shrewd that his answer was naturally the same as Chen Xun. In this regard, the left and right factions, which had been quarreling endlessly, spoke with one voice. This is also the result that Xiao Yuanqi wanted. He replied gently with a smile, "Yes, all of you are really loyal to the king. Yesterday, Shen Guifei was pushed into the water in the imperial garden, and the fetus in her abdomen is not out of danger..."

"My imperial heir is thin, and many concubines in the harem are not pregnant, and Dong Guifei only gave birth to a daughter. Aiqing said that I only spoil Shen Guifei. You should know that it is a royal taboo for the concubine of the harem to be infertile. Shen Guifei is not pregnant, so I am naturally happy in my heart. I hope she can give birth to the emperor to help the society. This is also the reason why I set the rule of 'Mr. Prince as the queen'.

"However, now my child's life and death are not clear because of the unevenness of the harem, and my heart is like a knife."

Xiao Yuanqi cares about the fetus in Shen Sirong's womb, which can make these ministers less jealous and slightly clear Shen Sirong's favorite name.

"Your Majesty, the noble concubine Hong Fuqitian, the little prince is born with a real dragon, and it is bound to be fine." Ye Huaiqing, the minister of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, comforted him.

His face was stained with sadness, Xiao Yuanqi's lips were closed, and the cold breath made everyone tremble. No one dares to refute Ye Huaiqing's words at this time, but his heart is itchy. Ye Huaiqing said such a sentence and admitted the true dragon status of the fetus in Shen Sirong's womb. If he should not make peace, then he will despise the king.

Of course, in Xiao Yuanqi's view, he accepted Ye Huaiqing's goodwill. Not many people know about the relationship between Ye Su and Shen Sirong, and the criminal department under Ye Huaiqing is still under Wang Chu's jurisdiction. No matter how many objections the courtiers have, they will not doubt that he has any deep intentions.

"What Ye Shangshu said is very true, please rest assured."

"Yes, emperor, please rest assured."

Seeing that the time had arrived, Xiao Yuanqi sighed heavily and said, "Yes, I also believe that the noble concubine and the little prince will be safe and sound, but I must severely punish this murderer. What do you think?

At this time, everyone under the hall understood the emperor's thoughts. He wanted to let the courtiers not participate in the battle of the harem, and this time it was to step down. If anyone maintains one or two, the future is worrying.

"I think that this kind of behavior will definitely be severely punished." Wang Chu was the first to appear on the list, and Chen Xun, who was preempted first, also had this attitude.

I got the guarantee I wanted, and Xiao Yuanqi's eyes showed up.

"Retired."

......

hurried back to the harem, Xiao Yuanqi set up a banquet in the Shangyang Palace and summoned all the concubines. When the concubines entered the hall, they saw many cases and seats neatly spread out in the hall. There is still a long distance between the two, just like a palace trial. The concubines were ordered to sit down one after another. Wang Guangrong put a piece of paper on each table, and everyone looked at each other without knowing why.

After Xiao Yuanqi entered the hall, he sat straight on the dragon chair. He put the reactions of the concubines in the bottom of his heart and raised his voice, "I often hear that those who write are also the heart to move the pen. My concubines are all born. Naturally, they have learned good words. I want to see them. All you write today is a name to tell me who wanted to kill me that day.

Wang Guangrong exhaled a turbid breath. The emperor's method was actually a method, but the emperor insisted on using it. It was useless for him to persuade him again and again. He only hoped that the emperor would really have a trick.

Soon, a concubine put down the brush in her hand. When everyone put aside the pen in her hand, Wang Guangrong put away the rice paper one by one. Xiao Yuanqi took a cursory look in his hand, and it was really as he expected...

"Oh? I never thought that when there was such a consensus in the harem, except for one person who wrote Princess Li, the rest were all concubines.

Xiao Yuanqi's eyes passed Chen Yunyun, and Chen Yunyun burst into tears.

"Your Majesty, injustice, my concubine really doesn't know anything. Your Majesty, you believe that my concubine... My concubine was framed, and my concubine didn't push the noble concubine, really didn't..." Chen Yunyun kowtowed while crying until her forehead bleeding.

"Retain the concubine, and the rest of the people should retreat."

When there was no one else in the hall, Xiao Yuanqi walked to Chen Yunyun and helped her up: "You have been wronged."

In a short sentence, Concubine Yun couldn't stand it and cried in Xiao Yuanqi's arms: "Your Majesty, do you believe that my concubine is right? I am innocent. Although my concubine is jealous of Shen Guifei's favor, she has no intention of harming others.

"Sister Yun, do you know what I regret about you?" Xiao Yuanqi pulled the person in his arms away and whispered.

Chen Yunyun shook her head, and her eyes were wet with tears.

"I shouldn't have let you come to the palace because of your identity." Chen Yunyun is the daughter of Chen Xun. When she was young, she got along with her brother and sister. Chen Yunyun's true nature was also greatly appreciated by Xiao Yuanqi, but she could not survive in the palace.

"Your Majesty..." Chen Yunyun's childishness emerged, which made Xiao Yuanqi worry about how to go next. He thought about it again and decided not to startle the snake: "Even if I believe in you, I also need evidence. You can't leave the Qinse Palace until I find evidence to prove your innocence. Do you understand?"

"I haven't done it. Really, emperor, you have to believe in me..." Chen Yunyun was very uneasy when she saw that Xiao Yuanqi still wanted her to be imprisoned in the palace.

Xiao Yuanqi turned his back and stopped looking at her.

When Chen Yunyun was removed from the hairpin ring and sent out of the Shangyang Palace, Shen Sirong was helped out by Mother Shen. After falling into the water, she slept in the Shangyang Palace. Shangyang Palace is the closest to the Royal Garden, so she was sent directly yesterday and has never returned to Fengming Palace.

After a day of rest, Shen Sirong's face was getting better. She coughed gently and fell into Xiao Yuanqi's arms.

"It won't be a concubine. Although she is wayward, she is also a woman with a true temperament. There must be something wrong." Shen Sirong explained for Yun.

Xiao Yuanqi took a deep breath, and the tip of her nose was full of the fragrance of Shen Sirong: "I know that I want to lead the man out by herself. I wanted to make it clear to her, but she is too straightforward. I'm afraid it will be counterproductive, so I have to wrong her for a few days."
