Princess Consort Is No Pushover

He just asked the queen to get rid of Yun Ruoyue's child, but he didn't ask the queen to kill her!

"Yes, Your Majesty, this matter is absolutely true. They also said that the Emperor did not want His Royal Highness Prince Li to have an heir, so they ordered Aunt Bing to harm Princess Li. Now the common people are very angry, and they are all spreading this rumor." Taifu Han said.

Grand Master Li Jin next to him also said: "Your Majesty, the old ministers have also heard it. They also said that His Royal Highness King Li fought bloody battles to defend the state of Chu and made great achievements, but the Emperor does not want him to have an heir. They said that this would chill the hearts of all the soldiers, so Today, people in the barracks are also fluctuating, and the morale of the army is shaken!"

"What? How dare these people spread the word like this?" Emperor Hong Yuan turned pale with anger when he heard these words.

He clearly asked the Queen to do this quietly, why did it spread all over the world?

Could it be that the Queen didn't do a good job, the news leaked out, or that Aunt Bing betrayed him?

"Yes, Your Majesty. Now this matter has spread throughout the imperial city. People in the barracks are in panic. The soldiers are all discussing this matter, and everyone is very angry. The common people are feeling sorry for Princess Li. They said that Princess Li is so A good doctor was murdered to death. Those people who had been treated by her, when they heard the news of the tragic death of her and the child in her belly, even entangled the villagers and rushed to the government to ask the government for an explanation. " Taifu Han said.

"Your Majesty, the imperial city is in great chaos. It is even more chaotic than when His Highness Li Wang was seriously injured last time. Now there are floods in the south of the Yangtze River, and many people are homeless. They don't have enough food and clothing, and they have resentment against the court. They think Regardless of their life or death, the imperial court will only fight with each other and frame Zhongliang, so they will fuel the flames and spread these rumors. The emperor should come up with a solution as soon as possible to stop the spread of rumors, otherwise big things will happen." Li Jin also persuaded earnestly road.

When Emperor Hongyuan heard these words, he clenched his teeth in anger.

He didn't expect that such a small incident would lead to such a big incident.

He said to the ministers: "Presumptuous! Who spread these rumors? I have never sent Aunt Bing to harm Princess Li. This is simply a frame-up. Someone dares to frame me. He is not small! Come on!" Hurry up and find out where the source of this rumor comes from, I must catch the real culprit behind the scenes!"

After finishing speaking, he hurriedly said to Eunuch Xu: "Send someone to Prince Li's mansion to check the situation and see what happened to Princess Li. Also, call Aunt Bing into the palace, I will ask her personally."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Eunuch Xu hurried out after wiping the sweat off his forehead.

Emperor Hongyuan looked at Taifu Han and the others, narrowed his eyes coldly, and his eyes were full of temptation, "My dear friends, do you believe these rumors?"

"I wait...don't believe it." The ministers whispered.

Emperor Hongyuan raised his eyelids, and said lightly: "Xuan Chen is my nephew and my dearest relative. I wish he could have ten or eight children to help me protect Chu. He has been fighting for the country for many years. I have worked hard, I have always attached great importance to him, let him control the military power of Chu, how can I harm him? There must be someone with ulterior motives in this matter, just to provoke the relationship between him and me. After I find out the matter clearly , will tell the truth to the world!"

"Your Majesty, please don't worry. I trust you. Your Majesty loves the people like your own son. Someone must have deliberately provoked this matter. It's just that the old minister heard that Princess Li was indeed poisoned, so someone just took advantage of this incident to spread rumors and damage the Emperor's reputation. " Taifu Han hurriedly said.
