Chapter 249: Don't let it go

The hall was extremely quiet for a while, and the slightly heavy breathing of Empress Qin could be heard. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Empress Qin's face changed uncertainly, she had been immersed in the harem for nearly thirty years, and she had already cultivated the instinct to speculate things from a few words of information.

Although the prince said vaguely, she still guessed the general situation.

"No wonder Your Majesty was very cold to you a few days ago," Empress Qin muttered to herself, "No wonder Your Majesty suddenly fell ill and no one would see you, this palace thought that Your Majesty was worried about state affairs, but it turned out to be ....."

A few days ago, Emperor Jiayou suddenly fell ill, and she, as the queen, naturally wanted to go to greet her, but Emperor Jiayou didn't see anyone, and Dugong Du, who was waiting in the Qingshou Palace, didn't show his tone at all, so Queen Qin didn't think about the prince at all.

Empress Qin lingered in the palace for a moment, then suddenly turned around and looked at the prince fixedly, "You tell the queen mother honestly, have you been involved in this matter?" ”

The prince looked a little hesitant.

"This palace must listen to the truth!" Empress Qin's voice had a hint of coldness.

The prince pursed the corners of his lips, nodded lightly, and defended anxiously, "Queen Mother, you can't blame me for this, that Wenbo had evidence in his hand at that time, and he threatened me...... I didn't mean to harm his whole family, it was Zhao Yang, yes, that's right, it was all Zhao Yang's idea, I, I didn't expect Zhao Yang to do so much. ”

Perhaps because of nervousness, the prince's words were a little incoherent.

Empress Qin's face turned pale, her body staggered back two steps, her lips trembled slightly, and her eyes were full of disappointment when she looked at the prince.

How could she have given birth to such a son!

has the courage to do it but does not have the courage to take responsibility, Zhao Yang is his confidant, if it is not for his instructions, Zhao Yang would never dare to kill the court officials and slaughter people's homes.

"Hongu has no interest in why you're doing this." Empress Qin suddenly felt full of exhaustion, and she waved her hand impatiently.

Since when did her son, the prince of Da Zhou, become such an unresponsible person.

did everything, but after being exposed, he didn't dare to admit it at all, but pushed it all on Zhao Yang.

I'm afraid that in His Majesty's heart, he also guessed the ins and outs of this matter, so he will be disappointed in the prince.

Empress Qin couldn't believe it when she heard the words of the crown prince, let alone Emperor Jiayou.

Under the disappointed eyes of Empress Qin, the prince's voice of defense came to an abrupt end.

Empress Qin rubbed her forehead tiredly, and her voice was unprecedentedly stern, "Don't do this kind of thing that you don't have the ability to wipe your butt in the future, the queen mother is angry not because you killed Zhang Wenbo's family, but because you did this, you didn't have the ability to destroy all the evidence, but it made people catch the handle, and what was even more angry was that you didn't dare to admit it after the incident." ”

The prince was full of grievances when he heard it.

He has already eliminated the evidence that should be eliminated, who knows that he was still caught by Song Yanzhao's kid, how can he be blamed.

also said that he didn't dare to admit it, how could he admit this kind of thing, if he didn't push it on Zhao Yang, he only said that he was blinded, and he was afraid that as soon as he recognized it, Emperor Jiayou would be able to abolish him.

As if sensing the resistance in his heart, Empress Qin closed her eyes patiently, "How is that Zhao Yang?" Did Song Yanzhao ask anything? ”

The prince hurriedly shook his head, "Zhao Yang committed suicide in the dungeon of the Shen Penal Division the morning before yesterday, and Song Yanzhao shouldn't have asked anything." ”

Hearing that Zhao Yang was dead, Empress Qin breathed a sigh of relief, and the expression on her face softened a little.

The Shen Criminal Division is a place that is only loyal to His Majesty, Zhao Yang died in that kind of place, it should be His Majesty's hand, it seems that His Majesty has already figured it out and wants to protect the prince.

She leaned back in the chair tiredly, her eyes closed slightly, thinking carefully about whether there were any other loopholes in this matter, and after a while, she suddenly opened her eyes, "What do you say Song Yanzhao should not have tried?" ”

The crown prince nodded hesitantly, "Well, my father has also tested him, he is just suspicious of me, but there is no evidence in his hands." ”

Empress Qin's brows furrowed, and her hands knocked on the table impatiently, and her long nails scratched the table, making a sharp and piercing sound.

Her instincts told her that it wasn't that simple.

After a while, she suddenly sat up straight, her expression solemn, "No, no, Song Yanzhao should have asked something, or he already knew the truth of the matter." ”

The prince looked at her in confusion.

Empress Qin pursed her lips and said with a gloomy expression, "Today is Song Yanzhao's birthday, and His Majesty rewarded him with a lot of things early this morning. ”

He knows about this matter, the prince frowned, Song Yanzhao celebrates his birthday every year, didn't his father reward him with a bunch of things?

Empress Qin glared at him hatefully, "It's a reward." ”

The crown prince was blessed to his heart, and suddenly understood the difference, and his face changed, "Queen Mother, do you mean that the father and emperor are also suspicious of Song Yanzhao?" ”

Song Yanzhao celebrates his birthday every year, and Emperor Jiayou sends a bunch of things, but he has never issued an order to reward, and the order to reward is more on behalf of the emperor's love for his courtiers.

Emperor Jiayou is hinting to Song Yanzhao in disguise, he is just a courtier, do his duty as a courtier.

Empress Qin was noncommittal, "Maybe, but one thing is certain, there is a gap between Your Majesty and Song Yanzhao, what is this gap?" ”

Saying that, Empress Qin glanced at the prince and slowly scrutinized: "It may be that Song Yanzhao knows the truth and refuses to close the case, or there is still some evidence in his hand and he wants to continue to investigate......

Every time she said a possibility, the prince's face turned pale, and in the end, the prince's face was already pale.

"What a Song Yanzhao, if he wants to put me to death, just rely on him, hum ......"

Empress Qin sighed, "But don't forget that his mother is Princess Minghui, and he is also your father's favorite grandson." ”

No matter how close his grandson is, he can't kiss his son, the prince's eyebrows are slightly together.

Empress Qin thought for a while, and taught him earnestly, "You are the prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, unless you disobey your father and commit a great crime, otherwise, with the good reputation you have accumulated over the years, Your Majesty will not move your position as the prince now, not because the imperial brother below you is not talented, but because the Great Zhou Dynasty can't afford to lose this person, and such an ugly thing should not be done by the Great Zhou royal family." ”

"Now, you say?" The prince's face turned pale and he noticed Empress Qin's words.

Empress Qin's face was also ugly, "Yes, now, you have indeed disappointed your father this time, so he will have the intention of cultivating other princes, and you will have to perform more in court politics in the near future." ”

The prince nodded and wrote it down.

Empress Qin knocked on the table, and a touch of coldness rose between her eyebrows, "As for your other imperial brothers, don't worry about it yet, the most important thing at the moment is to solve Song Yanzhao." ”
