When she saw the white ripe grass in Concubine Hui's hand, Queen Zhao, who was originally full of voice and confidence, was stunned. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

After hearing He Quan confirm that this thing was indeed the white ripe grass that could cause people to have the illusion of poisoning, her body trembled, and she held on to the edge of the bed in a trance, covering her violently undulating chest with one hand, and imprinted deep tooth marks on her lips.

"What kind of white ripe grass, Bengong doesn't know what you are talking about, have you ever seen Bengong eat it with your own eyes?"

Empress Zhao's face sank, her red eyes were glowing with a terrifying cold light, and she glared at Concubine Hui murderously.

"Yu Peiyin, how much do you hate this palace, not only do you want to poison this palace, but now you actually bite back, and take out some white ripe grass to try to frame this palace?

Empress Zhao pointed to Concubine Hui and Gao Heng in front of her, her whole face became almost distorted because of anger and unwillingness, and then she leaned forward again, grabbed Emperor Zhou's arm tightly with both hands, and said that it was her innocent body, and she was victimized by a traitor.

And Gao Heng has always watched coldly, no matter how the queen exaggerated this bitter scene in front of Emperor Zhou, it can be seen from the gloom and disappointment in Emperor Zhou's eyes that this woman has lost Emperor Zhou's trust.

"Concubine Hui, where did you get this?"

Emperor Zhou's face tensed, and he didn't pay attention to Empress Zhao, who forcibly added drama to him, but looked at Concubine Hui.

Seeing Emperor Zhou's inquiry, Concubine Hui truthfully informed Emperor Zhou of how she and Concubine Yi discovered the white ripe grass.

At the same time, she also noticed that when she told the story, Ling Shuang, who had been waiting by the door and bowed her head silently, suddenly became frightened.

It can be seen that she was worried that if she discarded this thing indiscriminately, she might leave evidence, so she came up with the idea of destroying the remaining white grass and burying it under the soil of the flower bed.

But I never thought that the vitality of the white ripe grass was extremely tenacious, even if there were only a few broken rhizomes left, it could still take root and sprout.

This is probably called, smart is mistaken by smart, right?

After listening to Concubine Hui's explanation, Emperor Zhou took a deep breath, and a look of exhaustion suddenly appeared between his eyebrows.

He raised his hand and motioned to the eunuch who followed him to take someone to inspect the pot of longevity flowers, and the person who came back to recover also brought back some disastrous white ripe grass rhizomes, which was enough to prove that what Concubine Hui said was true.

Since the development of the matter, everything has come to light, even Empress Zhao herself has sensed it, no matter how she refutes, she can no longer shake Emperor Zhou's decision.

"Queen, what else do you have to say now?"

Emperor Zhou didn't get angry as usual, this sentence was asked very gently and tiredly, but it sounded even more chilling in the heart, and the words were shocking.

"Your Majesty, the concubine is wronged! Your Majesty cannot convict the concubine of bullying the king because of these evidences that can be forged at will, this is clear... This is clearly that Concubine Hui wants to frame her concubine, otherwise how can she explain the Chiling San..... who was found in her palace?"

"Hmph, you'll also say frame-up. It's all this time, and you still dare to say that you have been wronged?"

Emperor Zhou stared at Empress Zhao with tears in her eyes, her eyes were heavy, and there was a hidden pain rolling in the depths of her eyes.

"It is precisely because of a mother like you that the prince will be taught like that. ”

Emperor Zhou's tone was as heavy as a thousand jun, and his words were full of low and disappointed, which made Empress Zhao, who was still crying and struggling, suddenly stop the movements in her hand, and her face was already miserable.

In fact, Empress Zhao knew that this matter was ironclad, and no matter how much she quibbled, she could no longer make Emperor Zhou regain his trust. Now listening to Emperor Zhou suddenly mention the crown prince, it is like suddenly touching the softest place in her heart, and thousands of complex emotions all came to her heart for a while, and tears flowed down from her eyes unconsciously.

Emperor Zhou's trembling hand hung in mid-air, and after a while, he finally wiped away the tears on her face.

Empress Zhao's body was weak, and the hands that were holding on Emperor Zhou's arms suddenly lost their strength, and she sat on the edge of the bed with a blank expression, although her face was pale, she was unconsciously relieved in her heart.

"Queen Zhao, despicable behavior, immoral words and deeds, criminals deceive the king, is not tolerated by the palace rules, now deprived of the right to hold the six palaces, confined Zhenghe Palace, without my permission, not allowed to step out of the palace half a step, no one is allowed to come to visit, violators of the order, there is no mercy. ”

After Emperor Zhou finished speaking, he shook off Empress Zhao's almost loose hand and disposed of Zhang Heyong, who was bowing his head to the ground and trembling all over.

"The Tai Hospital sentenced Zhang Heyong to collude with the queen to commit the crime of bullying the king, and now he will be sentenced to the post of Tai Hospital, and he will be admitted to Dali Temple, and he will wait for his fate. ”

Then he looked at Concubine Hui: "Concubine Hui, what do you think of this?"

Both Gao Heng and Concubine Hui could see that Emperor Zhou was indeed very angry at what Empress Zhao had done this time.

But they had long expected that the punishment of Empress Zhao, whether it was seclusion or seizure of power, as long as Empress Zhao did not commit the major crime of rebellion and rebellion, she would never be abolished.

Just like he will not easily depose the crown prince who occupies the position of prince.

Even if no one mentioned the prince at this time, how could Emperor Zhou not suspect that the prince was also involved in this matter?

It's just that he doesn't want to admit it, and he doesn't want to believe that this son, who has high hopes and entrusts his family and country to him, has repeatedly and embarrassed his mother and done one wrong thing after another that makes him sad and disappointed.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have said something like that to the queen suddenly.

At this time, in Gao Heng's heart, silent silence is often more effective than a powerful voice.

And the reason why Empress Zhao no longer defended herself was because she was afraid that if she continued to entangle, she would implicate the prince, so she chose to calm down. Although she is destined to be a loser in this game of chess, as long as the most important chess piece in her hand does not die in this game, she will have the possibility of making a comeback at any time and winning the game.

She knows this, and so does Gao Heng.

"It's up to His Majesty to decide. Angry and injured, I hope that Your Majesty will cherish the dragon body. ”

Concubine Hui said calmly, looking at Emperor Zhou's tired face, but saw that he suddenly turned his eyes and put his hand in his palm, and gently patted the back of her hand with a sense of comfort.

"Over the years, I have wronged you. ”

Seeing Emperor Zhou suddenly say such a thing, Concubine Hui's eyebrows trembled, and a look of surprise flashed in her indifferent and clear eyes.

No matter how much she has forced herself to cut off her thoughts over the years, she is light and light, and she does not ask for luxury or resentment.

But after hearing this long-awaited words of concern, somewhere in his heart that had been cold and gloomy for many years, Huo Ran still felt a subtle but real light and heat at this moment.
