The Beloved Imperial Consort
Chapter 103 Aftermath
Emperor Yuan Cheng looked at the woman with delicate makeup under his feet, and smashed down a stack of torture records.
Concubine De tremblingly picked up a handprinted transcript, after reading only two lines, she lost her strength and knelt down on the ground. With one hand propped on the side of her leg, the woman's eyes were blank, neither crying nor refuting.
Are you prepared? At least these few days of panic are over, and I no longer have to endure the torture of fear. Thirty years of time in the deep palace have passed away, and I can only get a white silk in exchange. Staring at the tin flower ring in my hand, my heart is desolate, and there is no more waves.
"Do you have something to say?" Emperor Yuan Cheng sat down nearby, looked at her dejected expression, and felt emotional in his heart. This woman has been with me since the hidden mansion, and now she is the fourth concubine, what dissatisfaction does she have, she wants to do such a disobedient thing?
Listening to Emperor Yuan Cheng's questioning, Concubine De gradually regained her composure. Looking up at the man who had served him all his life, tears slowly rolled down from the corners of his eyes.
"Your majesty, my concubine has been with you for nearly thirty years, and I have no desire to compete for favor. You cannot be favored by the emperor when you are young, let alone too young."
The female voice sobbed softly, as if in a trance, "The emperor has rarely come to the palace of concubines since a few years ago, and the occasional one is a matter of several months. Guarding an empty palace, the emperor knows the loneliness that is immersed in the bone marrow at night. ?”
Concubine De's makeup was smeared, her eyes were tearful, and she laughed miserably. "How would the emperor know? There are countless beauties in the palace, and there are newcomers every year. The only ones who are lonely are the old people in the palace, especially those who have no children to rely on!"
Emperor Yuan Cheng saw that her eyes were red, and when he heard the word Zisi, he also clenched his fists tightly.
"Your majesty, do you still remember Qing'er, the concubine? The child who held your hand and called him father? The third son who you praised for being smart and gentle?" Concubine De's voice was hoarse and her breath was short.
"If it wasn't for that bitch Concubine Shu who called both court judges to see that trash, how could the concubine's Qing'er not be rescued after the delay?" The woman cried loudly, sobbing. "Your majesty, why do you favor her son, but ignore your concubine Qing'er?"
"You, you are making unreasonable words!" Emperor Yuan Cheng's chest heaved, thinking of his son who died young, his heart ached. "Qing'er is a sudden illness, who would have expected it to come so fiercely, and can't wait for a while? Besides, Yun'er has a high fever and is in critical condition. His life is hanging by a thread, and the imperial doctor can't leave him at all!"
Concubine De listened but didn't hear it, and continued to scream, "Your Majesty! That bitch Concubine Shu has not only harmed Qing'er, but even took advantage of the unbearable pain of bereavement to prescribe medicine, so that the concubine has nothing to do!"
"Then it was Concubine Fugui who committed the crime, and you have personally seen the trial process, so how can you blame others?" Yuan Chengdi saw that she was already insane, unable to listen to others' words, and wanted to leave.
"Your Majesty! Concubine Fu Gui is someone who came out of her palace, and she was clearly instigated by her! The concubine has never slept peacefully since Qing'er passed away. In the past twenty years, she has not been able to fight against her, and the concubine will never die with peace in her eyes!"
"It's hopeless!"
"Gu Changde, drag her down."
"Your Majesty! This concubine hates her, hates all her sons, and this concubine wants to watch that bitch die!"
Yuan Chengdi heard her yelling crazily, his complexion ashen. It turned out that the inside of this woman had long been rotten, and she hadn't even noticed it on weekdays. Remembering that there was still a woman to deal with, Emperor Yuan Cheng frowned. The harem has never been clean, and I have known it since I was a child. But when it was his turn to deal with these women who had been with him for decades, it was not without heartache.
In Yuye Palace, Emperor Yuan Cheng was furious.
"You still dare to quibble!"
"Your Majesty, my concubine was wronged! Concubine De didn't testify against this concubine, so how can you trust what the maid said? Someone must have framed this concubine and plotted to become a noble concubine!"
Seeing the imperial concubine's resolute face, knelt down to cry for grievances, Emperor Yuan Cheng's anger could not be dispelled.
This woman is still unrepentant, thinking that old man An Guogong can still protect her.
"Do you think that when Mobei uses troops, I will be tied up, and I won't be able to touch your government's government at all! You are nothing to do as my supervisory department!"
"Your Majesty!" Gu Changde hurried in to report, "The servant girl next to Concubine De has been thrown in prison."
Emperor Yuan Cheng had a violent expression and his eyes were extremely cold. Committing crimes against the wind, the rebellious minister An Guogong seems to have too much life!
Seeing the woman on the ground seemed relieved, Emperor Yuan Cheng became even more angry.
"Concubine De didn't confess?"
"Your Majesty, Concubine De is already insane and doesn't recognize anyone." Gu Changde shook his head helplessly when he thought of Concubine De's disheveled hair and biting anyone she saw.
"Okay. Good to be crazy, good to die! Concubine, you are really capable!" Yuan Chengdi jumped up against the table and didn't stay any longer, "Then guard this Yuye Palace carefully, and I will help you!"
Gu Changde trotted to keep up, his head drooping in fright. This was the first time that Emperor Yuan Cheng had become so angry in recent years. The slap in the imperial concubine's palace just now almost made the whole bar jump up.
"Gu Changde, draw up an order."
The next day, when Emperor Yuan Cheng issued two imperial edicts, the entire Shengjing was in an uproar.
The case of Concubine Liu's coma has been settled, and the concubine Mu Shi of the Sixth Highness has been wronged, but this treatment is merciless.
Concubine De deposes the common people and enters the cold palace. The third prince, Zongzheng Qing, who died prematurely, changed the jade certificate to the name of the imperial concubine.
The title of the Duke of Anguo was changed from hereditary to descending after three generations. As for the imperial concubine, it was rumored in the palace that she could not recover from illness after this blow, and she could not recover from her illness in Yuye Palace.
The people of the aristocratic family are still calm about the promotion and promotion of concubines, but they are frightened by the denunciation of the Duke of Anguo.
The title of Duke of Anguo was conferred by the former emperor, and it cannot be replaced by hereditary. Now that the imperial decree of Emperor Yuan Cheng came out, it was undoubtedly disrespectful to the former emperor and cut off the future of An Guo Gongfu. The censors gave remonstrances one after another, but they were all returned by Emperor Yuan Cheng. His attitude was so tough that it was rare.
An Guogong kowtowed at the age of seventy for his kindness, and then suddenly fainted and fell into a coma.
Except for the eldest son, the Duke's Mansion is considered promising, and there is no successor. Even with the Duke of An in his body, it is no longer the past. Now that Emperor Yuan Cheng has taken the hereditary title, it looks like "the first descending of three generations", but in fact the way forward has been cut off.
Zong Zhenglin only nodded indifferently when he got the news. Mu Xiyao made a fuss, and it was worth it. That woman must be very proud now. But that's fine, at least Zongzheng Chun would not dare to act rashly in the short term. After this incident, Mu Xiyao's delivery was much more stable, which saved him from worrying about leaving Beijing.
Just as Zong Zhenglin expected, Mu Xiyao was laughing happily in Danruo Garden.
After waiting for a few days, she finally expected the result she wanted. Although it is impossible to uproot An Guogong's veins, it is not easy to hurt his muscles and bones. Emperor Yuan Cheng's decision this time has the air of a wise king.
Without the support of An Guogong, the imperial concubine is nothing to fear. What's more, she was banned from Yuye Palace by Emperor Yuan Cheng without an edict.
Mu Xiyao was happy on her own, and took Chengqing to the garden when she was in the mood.
Zhao Momo, Mo Lan, followed behind, seeing the master's flamboyance, and finally realized that it was a lot of trouble to worry about her back then, and it was too much to eat. It's no wonder that when the courtyard was full of depression, the master shouted that he wanted to arrest the man, peel the skin and gouge out the flesh. It turned out that Zhizhu was in his hands.
Helian Minmin stared blankly at the playbook that was delivered, feeling that it was too absurd.
Not only did that woman, Mu Xiyao, get off the hook, but she actually defeated Concubine De and brought down the Duke An's mansion? This is something she can't even imagine. The grace of the former emperor, how could you fall down at your word?
Wan Jingwen and Concubine Wan Shu are the ones who have the same thoughts as her.
Wan Jingwen couldn't believe her ears. When I first heard that Emperor Yuan Cheng conducted a thorough investigation, he thought it would be good if he could find out the concubine. Now, however, there was a shocking upheaval, and the entire Shengjing was shaken by it.
In the previous life, the An Guo Gong's Mansion was completely abolished in the middle of Emperor Jian'an, but now it was half disabled by Emperor Yuan Cheng before Zong Zhenglin ascended the throne. This made Wan Jingwen wonder if she was too optimistic, maybe the rebirth was not as sure as she expected?
If Mu Xiyao knew that someone with the same experience as herself was unreliable, she would definitely agree with her. Up to now, the memory in my mind can only be mentioned sporadically, and more future needs to be planned by myself. Fortunately, she found a shortcut and saved a lot of effort. Fucking the boss with the cheek is definitely the only way to steal and play tricks.
"Wei Rui, what do you think about this matter?"
"Father, the emperor may have already moved his mind on the family. After the battle in Mobei, there may be great changes." Even in midsummer, Helian Weirui was tightly wrapped and could not bear the cold at all.
"As for the Namu clan, it's amazing." The young woman praised her lightly, with a face like a bright moon. "On this matter alone, it's not enough."
"Oh? If you change to Wei Rui, maybe you can protect yourself?"
"Yes. But it can't shake the foundation of the noble concubine and the Duke's mansion."
He Lianzhang became interested. Mu's escape from the predicament was amazing, but how did Wei Rui do it?
"Father, it's too late for a dead person to argue." Helian Weirui laughed. Killed Na Gan Fuwei, planted himself directly, and after diverting everyone's attention to the murder case, he threw out bait to catch the "real murderer behind the scenes", and then colluded with Si Tianjian to reverse the case for her. In this way, she was caught in other people's calculations from the beginning to the end, and she was very innocent.
If you can't directly erase the question of fate, then use the murder case to reverse the case for yourself first, and induce everyone to believe again that the theory of fate is also framing and persecution. There are never many self-righteous smart people in this world. Especially for such a strange case, there must be many people who are eager to try it and want to make a name for it. Could she be without a helper?
He Lianzhang listened to her plan, but shook his head and vetoed it. "It's too vicious, too frank."
"That's why Wei Rui said that in this matter, she is inferior to Mu Shi. Wei Rui can only protect herself."
"From now on, remember to be aboveboard, and don't go astray."
Helianwei agreed. It was only after He Lianzhang left that his face darkened.
aboveboard? Father, if you want to be magnanimous and magnanimous in everything, now she has already died in Huangquan!
Mu Xiting watched the rain outside the window silently, but the sound of the rain could not wash away her depression.
His Highness has been resting here for several days, and she doesn't know why. It was just because of that "Mu Shi." Before that, His Highness used to call her boudoir name directly, but now he never called her again.
How did you get into your heart, and you can't let it go?
Mu Xiting had never seen the scene where Mu Xiyao faced the Emperor's prestige directly, so naturally she couldn't imagine Zong Zhengming's shock and admiration. Zong Zhengming always remembers that kind of courage, courage and learning that are rare in women.
Mu Xiting clasped her hands tightly, undecided. The woman said that as long as she acted according to her instructions, His Highness would give up, but was it true?
In Danruo Garden, Zong Zhenglin finished reading "The Story of Opening Words" to the fetus in his womb, and hugged Mu Xiyao intimately.
"Grandmaster returns to Beijing in two days, can you go to Anguo Temple?"
"Can you go?" Mu Xiyao was overjoyed. Zong Zhenglin clearly warned him not to leave the palace last time, why did he suddenly change his sex?
There seems to be a saying - "guilty heart"?
"Your Highness, are you sleeping with a woman again?" Last time it was Tang Huiru, who is it this time?
