Greetings, Ninth Uncle

"The slaves dared to sue Mrs. Yang, the wife of Yang Shoufu, for murdering the former Queen Zhong."

Chapter 139 High Platform

In the Ciqing Palace, Du Ruo served with his hands down and his eyes locked.

There was no one in the hall at this moment, and Du Ruo couldn't help but ask: "Prince Concubine, what the old palace maid said...are you telling the truth?"

Recently, the Yang family has blossomed everywhere, and the murder and murder of the grandson of the Yang family has not yet been concluded, and Yang Shoufu's wife has been dragged into the water. Murdering the former queen, this crime is not the same as the death of a civilian.

In particular, this involved the Queen's dystocia. When Empress Zhong was pregnant, the fetal image was unstable. After the early initiation, the prince was weak as soon as she was born, and Empress Zhong also left the root of the disease, and died after two years in bed. According to the old palace maid, Empress Zhong would not have given birth prematurely, but she suddenly started after using a porridge. On the day of giving birth, it went smoothly at first, but later it was Madam Wen who deliberately delayed it, which caused Empress Zhong to have a bad childbirth and her vitality was severely damaged.

It is tantamount to murdering a woman while she is giving birth. If the old palace maid's words are true, then Madam Yang has to face more than just prison.

Cheng Yujin flipped her fingers and pierced the brocade face, holding the needle in her right hand and turning it gently in the air: "She dares to speak out on the bright side and spread the evidence in front of everyone. It must be true. It's just that it's over. After so many years, even if it is real evidence, it is not easy to review it again. What really needs to be seen is the attitude of the emperor."

Of course, Du Ruo was for the East Palace and the Crown Princess, not to mention the position of the East Palace, just because of the fact that Mrs. Yang did something when Empress Zhong was about to give birth, it would be difficult for Du Ruo to have a good impression of the Yang family. When a woman gives birth to a child, she steps into the gate of hell with one foot. During childbirth, the pain is so painful that she has no time to pay attention to other things. It can be said that she has no self-protection power. Harming people at such a time, and bribing the midwife to deliberately delay the time, is really too vicious and hurtful. Du Ruotong is a woman and instinctively rejects this kind of behavior.

If this is true, then everything is now clear to the world, and Mrs. Yang has no reason not to pay the price for her evil deeds. Du Ruo frowned and thought for a while, but still felt uneasy: "Prince Concubine, do you think Your Majesty will decide for the first queen, punish Mrs. Yang, and avenge the first queen?"

Revenge on the emperor? Cheng Yujin was not optimistic at all. If the emperor had intentions, he should have been suspicious when Empress Zhong had a difficult childbirth and pursued it further, but the emperor did not, and he and Empress Yang had been married for more than ten years.

Back then, people couldn't count on them when they were in front of them, let alone twenty years after they died? Cheng Yujin stabbed another stitch, turned her fingers, and pressed the end of the thread and the last stitch at the same time: "The justice that belongs to the first queen will definitely come, but it's not up to your majesty."

Du Ruofu knew the second half of Cheng Yujin's unspoken words with his heart.

Depends on the prince.

The matter of Empress Zhong will be investigated after many years, and the evidence will be collected from various sources, and the evidence will be preserved for many years, and will be announced to the world at the right time. Those who will do this, and those who have the ability to do so, are only one person.

Moreover, the timing of the old palace maid's grievance was also very coincidental. It happened on the fifth day of the investigation of Yang Xiaoyu's case in Dali Temple. Yang Xiaoyu's case is not difficult to investigate. What is really difficult is the relationship behind it. The emperor, the prince, and the chief assistant are in a stalemate, and there are other middle factions standing in line. The investigation result of Dali Temple can be said to be very difficult.

As a result, within ten days, the story of Empress Zhong suddenly broke out. At this moment, the Yang family was already on the cusp of the wind, and suddenly it was revealed that they were suspected of murdering the former queen, causing a lot of discussion inside and outside the palace. Once Empress Zhong's incident is true, Madam Yang will not be able to escape the blame. This is tantamount to smashing a hammer on the Yang family's head, and the situation of three-legged confrontation will be reversed in an instant. The Yang family's power has been greatly weakened, and the final result of the decision can be expected.

Cheng Yujin was basically certain that the old palace maid and the evidence she brought out must have been arranged by Li Chengjing. It's just that the originally planned time may not be now. The fact that Yang Xiaoyu was strangled to death was too sudden, everyone did not expect it, and Li Chengqian was also very surprised, but the opportunity was fleeting, and Li Chengjing made a decisive decision and immediately threw out the trump card of Queen Zhong.

The political struggle in the outside world is bloody and cruel, and there is no blood in the murder, but the East Palace is still peaceful. Cheng Yujin rested at ease, took care of her two children, and recovered little by little her vitality damaged by childbirth. When Li Chengjing came back at night, she only accompanies her to take care of the children, chat and talk, and rarely mention the ups and downs outside.

Cheng Yujin knew that Li Chengjing didn't want her to worry about things outside, so she took the time to recover. But not getting involved doesn't mean he doesn't know, Cheng Yujin still listens to the movements of the outer court in the harem during the day.

Cheng Yujin embroidered the coats for the two children, and Du Ruo immediately took them and folded them carefully. Cheng Yujin rubbed her wrist and sighed: "This is a duel between His Highness and Yang Shoufu, we'll just wait."

This is indeed a war between Li Chengjing and Yang Fucheng, the prince and the first assistant, the East Palace and the descendants, the two behemoths confronted each other head-on, and the small officials and small families did not dare to approach. Immortals fight, and mortals suffer. For ten days, some people have been watching and dare not stand in line, and one family after another has expressed their stance. Although it is dangerous, once it is done, it is the power of the dragon.

Moreover, the Yang family is over. The Yang family has been stuck in a stalemate for many years, and it is difficult to return, but the prince is on the rise. One is dissipating and one is well-received, one is crumbling, and the other is aggressive. After Li Chengjing used the trump card of Queen Zhong, the Yang family really couldn't stand it.
