The prince cried with tears, and refused to admit that the matter of Yizhou Road had something to do with him.

Emperor Jiayou's face turned pale and trembled.

The courtiers of the prince's party were startled by the sudden change at first, and after reacting, they knelt down and begged Emperor Jiayou to investigate thoroughly.

"Your Majesty, the crown prince would never do such a thing. ”

"Your Majesty, the prince has always been loyal, someone must have framed the prince, please Your Majesty investigate thoroughly!"

The courtiers said with emotion, and the angry Emperor Jiayou smashed the music on the table to the main hall.

"Since you say that the prince is innocent, who passed the secret order from Jinling to Yin Zhiheng, is it me?"

The ministers were silent and did not dare to answer.

Emperor Jiayou snorted coldly, "Say, why did they all become dumb one by one? Why didn't Yin Zhiheng frame others, but frame him?"

"Isn't it him, or one of you?"

The ministers kneeling on the ground turned pale and subconsciously shook their heads.

Give them ten dares, and you can't admit such a thing.

"It's me!" came a woman's slightly cold voice at the door of the main hall.

Everyone turned around and saw Empress Qin, dressed in plain white clothes and with no headdress on her body, slowly entering from the entrance of the main hall, her face was indifferent, but her steps were slightly eager.

"Queen Mother!" Seeing Empress Qin coming in, the prince hurriedly straightened up.

Empress Qin glanced at him with a complicated face, then turned to Emperor Jiayou and knelt down, "Your Majesty, the secret order of Jinling was issued by me, and the things that Yin Zhiheng confessed were all done by the concubines, and the prince did not know, please condemn your majesty to the concubines!"

As soon as Empress Qin's voice fell, there was an uproar in the hall!

No one expected that at this time, Empress Qin would stand up.

But it is really intriguing whether he stood up for the crown prince to bear the blame, or whether she really did it.

The ministers looked at Empress Qin, and their faces were a little strange.

The prince's party breathed a sigh of relief, and Empress Qin came forward to confess her guilt, at least she could take the prince out first.

Emperor Jiayou took a step back, the expression on his face was shocked and stunned, "Empress, you don't have to admit your guilt in order to protect this evil son.......

To be honest, in Emperor Jiayou's heart, he didn't quite believe that Empress Qin was involved in this matter, he preferred to believe that Empress Qin was trying to exonerate the crown prince.

"Your Majesty," Empress Qin interrupted him loudly, and presented a letter with both hands, "This is the warrant sent by the concubine to Yin Zhiheng, and the person sent someone to Yin Zhiheng to read it and took it back, this is indeed the concubine's handwriting, and the handwriting of the concubine recognized by His Majesty." ”

A small chamberlain stepped forward to take the letter from Empress Qin and presented it to Emperor Jiayou.

After Emperor Jiayou opened it, his pupils couldn't help but shrink.

The font on the letter is fresh and beautiful, the font is soft, it is the handwriting of Empress Qin, and the general content is to explain Yin Zhiheng to cooperate with the people she sent and find an opportunity to get rid of Song Yanzhao.

Emperor Jiayou suddenly clenched the letter in his hand, "Empress, you ......"

Empress Qin's face was as calm as water, and there was no trace of panic, as if she had expected this day a long time ago.

She kowtowed deeply, "Your Majesty, it was the concubine who was blinded by lard for a while, and she was afraid that Song Yanzhao would be unfavorable to the prince, so she did such a thing, please punish Your Majesty." ”

As for why Song Yanzhao was unfavorable to the crown prince, Empress Qin avoided the important and did not mention it.

Emperor Jiayou's face turned pale, and he slapped the letter on the dragon case, "Empress, when did you become such a vicious person?"

"Let's not talk about why Yan Zhao is not good for the crown prince, just because of the flash flood in De'an, do you know how many people died?"

Empress Qin pursed her lips and was silent.

Emperor Jiayou snorted, and slapped the table again, "One thousand one hundred and twenty-six people died, it was you, for your own selfishness, you deliberately caused a flash flood, causing thousands of people to die in the flood and countless children were displaced!"

"Is this how you gave my mother the world?"

"Are you the one who cares less about the lives and deaths of the people?"

Emperor Jiayou's words were sharp, and there was a hint of pain in his voice.

The prince's neck subconsciously shrank when he heard this, and in the eyes of Emperor Jiayou, he felt more and more that the prince was difficult to take on the task!

Empress Qin kowtowed, "Your Majesty, it is the concubine's wife's fault, the concubine is willing to accept the guilt, I just ask Your Majesty to see that the prince is still diligent, and not to abandon the prince!"

"The prince has always been loyal, he really doesn't know what his concubines are doing secretly. ”

"Please don't wronged the crown prince, he is really innocent. ”

Emperor Jiayou's face turned a little pale, and he trembled and pointed at Empress Qin, "You, you ......."

You have been for a long time, and Emperor Jiayou didn't say a complete sentence, and his whole body shrank, and the whole person fell down beside the table.

"Your Majesty!"

"Hurry up and announce the Imperial Doctor!"

There was a sudden mess in the court, and Song Yanzhao eagerly jumped up the steps and helped Emperor Jiayou up.

Seeing that Emperor Jiayou's face was pale and his eyes were closed, Song Yanzhao took out the pill that Mu Jin had prepared for him and fed Emperor Jiayou first.

The imperial doctor soon came, took the pulse, applied the needle, and Emperor Jiayou slowly woke up.

"Your Majesty is in a hurry, fortunately, Ding Nanhou fed him the pill of blood invigorating and reducing fire first, otherwise, it may cause other diseases. ”

"Your Majesty should pay more attention to recuperation in the past two days, and don't be sad and angry!"

After the imperial doctor finished explaining, he retreated, although Emperor Jiayou woke up, his face was still pale, and when he saw Queen Qin, the crown prince and a group of courtiers kneeling in the hall, the anger in his eyes rose again.

"Come, come on, put the Qin clan in the cold palace first, and wait for me to fall!"

A sentence that the Qin family is no longer the queen shows that Emperor Jiayou has the heart of abolishing the queen.

"As for the crown prince......... Emperor Jiayou pursed the corners of his mouth, paused, and looked at the prince fiercely, "Give this evil obstacle to my ........"

"Your Majesty!" Empress Qin suddenly interrupted Emperor Jiayou eagerly.

Emperor Jiayou looked at her with displeasure.

Empress Qin's eyes were sad, and tears slipped down silently, "Your Majesty, all this was done by the concubine on her own initiative, and the prince really didn't know about it!"

Emperor Jiayou looked at the crown prince with half-squinted eyes.

The prince's eyes shrank, and he didn't dare to look directly at Emperor Jiayou, and his head lowered deeply.

From beginning to end, he did not say a word of pleading for Empress Qin.

The disappointment in Emperor Jiayou's eyes flashed.

"If you want to condemn your concubines, or even abolish your concubines, the concubines have no complaints, but please carefully consider the fate of the crown prince. ”

Empress Qin's forehead slammed heavily on the marble on the floor, making a dull sound, and when she raised her head again, her forehead was already red and swollen.

"Tomorrow, Jingchang's envoys are about to arrive in Jinling, Jingchangguo will come to the Great Zhou Dynasty for the first time to congratulate, if Your Majesty punishes the prince at this time, wouldn't it be a joke for Jingchangguo to see our Great Zhou?"

"For the sake of this matter, please let your majesty drop the prince lightly!"

Emperor Jiayou's brows furrowed together, and he looked at the Ministry of Rites.

The Ministry of Rites Shangshu is not the prince's person, but he thinks that Empress Qin's words are not unreasonable.

"Your Majesty, the envoys of Jingchang Kingdom will indeed enter the city early tomorrow morning, the Ministry of Rites has cleaned up the post house, and at noon tomorrow, the envoys of Jingchang will enter the palace to meet Your Majesty!"
