536.Chapter 536: I Repay You
Hearing the emperor's words, who can stand up again? Mu Zhao just wanted to show that his brother bowed to him, and he wished that the queen would be deposed, so naturally he wouldn't speak anymore now. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"From today onwards, the prince will be demoted to a concubine, and after the decision of the Dali Temple is settled, the noon gate will be beheaded; the prince's mansion will be beheaded all over the world; the queen will be demoted to Jieyu from today onwards and move out of the Qiwu Palace. ”
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
All the officials knelt on the ground and bowed, shouting long live.
The prince's matter is solved, so it is obviously King Ning's turn to do it.
At this moment, in the minds of these ministers, there is no prince, only the princes who are most likely to become princes.
The King of Chu and the King of Duan are in the limelight, and they either don't stand in line, or they have to be cautious.
Because he was not sure of the emperor's attitude, no one dared to speak.
Mu Ling was the first to stand up, not a trade-off, but Mu Ze was his own brother, and he had to intercede.
"Father, the son has something to ask for. Mu Ling said earnestly.
Say. The emperor said lightly.
Mu Ling glanced at the middle-aged man who was sitting on the dragon chair with a somewhat pale face, lowered his head, and said respectfully: "King Ning, he first made meritorious contributions to quelling the chaos, and then collected evidence of the abolition of the prince's crimes, and completely killed the prince's private army, which should be meritorious." But King Ning killed people in the palace with a knife, this is an exceeding, the son did not ask his father to reward King Ning, but only wanted to see King Ning's merits and demerits offset and spare him this time. ”
Duanwang Muque frowned and did not speak. If the emperor doesn't agree, it is estimated that Mu Ling will bring out such as Mu Ze's water control, or the previous battle in the Northwest Wasteland, right?
The emperor was silent and did not speak.
However, a minister stood up, that person was the prince's party before, and now he is the staff of the king of Chu. The king of Chu obviously didn't want Mu Ze, his right-hand man, to return to Mu Ling's side, and he was naturally unwilling to forgive him.
Sure enough, the official said: "How can this kind of thing be offset by merit and demerit? The ministers present at that time all saw that His Royal Highness King Ning was still unwilling to accept the knife after His Majesty arrived at the noon gate, and even in the end, he still wanted to escape with that Yuan Jinyu! King Ning dared to kill people like this in the palace, if he was not punished, where was the law of my Great Zhou!"
Mu Ling looked at the official angrily, although he had a dislike with Mu Ze because of Yuan Jinyu's matter, it was impossible to let Mu Ze die: "What is the truth in what Lord Li said? You said that he didn't want to put away the knife, so he didn't want to put away the knife? This king also asks you, after his father said to stop, King Ning still killed someone!"
Master Li couldn't help but turn pale for a moment, and the court argued that it was necessary to come up with real evidence, and the most taboo thing was to act on the basis of feeling like this.
He could now imagine how deep the emperor's color was.
Mu Ling turned his head and continued to say to the emperor: "Father, King Ning has been born and died for many years, and he has no merit and hard work, he cares about his princess, what is wrong? In order to persecute Yuan Jinyu, he actually kidnapped her to the palace, and instigated those guards to kill King Ning, he is not sorry to die!"
The King of Chu also stood up at this moment: "But these things, King Ning can completely report them to his father and emperor to deal with, how can he rely on his martial arts to kill in the palace?
Arguments went on and on, but in the end, nothing came of it. The emperor was obviously tired, and waved his hand at them: "Deal with the affairs of the prince and the queen first, and talk about the affairs of Lao Jiu tomorrow." ”
Mu Ling was originally furious, but when she heard that the emperor was still willing to call Mu Ze Lao Jiu, she knew that things would definitely take a turn for the better. He couldn't help but bow down, and then stepped aside.
Among the brothers, Mu Ze is deaf, and people have paid attention to his tyrannical temperament, and besides him, the smartest person must be Mu Ling.
He has been in obscurity for many years, and since yesterday he has been trying to protect Mu Ze, Xiangye's method of evasion, he will never be able to do.
Now at the juncture of the abolished prince, taking a wrong step has nothing to do with the position of the prince.
So he believes in the emperor and his sincerity.
King Chu and Mu Ling argued, naturally they always fell behind everywhere, and left after leaving the court.
didn't argue about why, Mu Ling could only leave in the end.
And Yuan Jinyu was sitting in the imperial study at the moment, listening to the voices outside, presumably the early dynasty was over.
She glanced at her teacup again, thinking about taking another sip, but who knew that just as she picked it up, the teacup actually broke in her hand.
The broken porcelain cut the palm of her hand, and the blood immediately gushed out, and she was directly stuck in place.
And at this moment, the door of the imperial study was also opened, and it was the emperor who walked in.
The emperor saw Yuan Jinyu's bleeding hand at a glance, and he was furious: "Is it the tea cup that was prepared?
Yuan Jinyu didn't speak from beginning to end, not because she didn't want to say it, but because she was shocked by the emperor's momentum and forgot to salute.
By the time she remembered, the emperor had already asked the palace maid to start dealing with the injuries on her hands.
The imperial doctor quickly came over and found that Yuan Jinyu's hand was cut a small wound, although the wound was a little deep, but it was still very easy to deal with, as long as he didn't touch the water for a few days.
When the imperial doctor bandaged Yuan Jinyu and withdrew, Yuan Jinyu came back to his senses and knelt on the ground: "Please forgive the emperor." ”
Knowing that it was her who broke the teacup, the emperor didn't care too much, just waved his hand: "It's not your fault, I don't blame you, but you were injured because of this incident." ”
Only then did Yuan Jinyu stand up and stand respectfully to the side.
"Are you feeling better?" asked the emperor gently.
"If you go back to the emperor, it's almost good. Yuan Jinyu thought that it would be good if there were no injuries.
The palace maid had already cleaned up the broken teacups, the window of the imperial study was opened, and in a short time, the smell of blood disappeared.
"That's good, the medicine prescribed to you by the imperial doctor, you have to take it on time. "The emperor is like a kind elder at the moment, gossiping with her.
Yuan Jinyu nodded: "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”
The emperor continued: "I heard that your father was punished by your grandmother to kneel in the ancestral hall all night, but he fell ill today and did not come to the early court. Jinyu, your father, as the prime minister, also has his own difficulties, don't blame her. ”
Yuan Jinyu didn't expect the emperor to say this to himself, so he shook his head silently, saying that he was not to blame.
But she was thinking of her grandmother. I haven't seen him for a few months, and I guess it's for my own business, and I'm bothering about it again.
Thinking of the entire Prime Minister's Mansion, only her grandmother was the best to her, and Yuan Jinyu couldn't help but feel a little sour in her heart.
"Of course, this time, it's not just about talking about it, I'll compensate you, whatever you want, just bring it up. Even if it's King Ning's business, I can allow you. ”
Yuan Jinyu looked up, obviously a little surprised. What does the emperor mean by this?
"Don't look at me like that, I didn't want to punish Lao Jiu severely, but since I saved you, you two, there will always be someone to punish. I don't want you to suffer, this punishment will naturally fall on Lao Jiu's head. The emperor explained.
Yuan Jinyu still had gauze wrapped in her hands at this time, the medicine of the imperial medicine was very good, it may have the effect of some anesthetic, she only felt that the wound was cold and cold, and it was not painful.
But this coldness couldn't dispel the burning in her heart. In the end, she still didn't stop the question in her heart: "Your Majesty...... Why do you want to be so nice to Jinyu? Is it because of Jinyu's mother?"
"I don't know your mother, but you look a lot like one of my old friends. ”
When the emperor said this, Yuan Jinyu couldn't help but touch his cheek with his intact hand. It seems that he was really saved once because of this face.
As for the relationship between Ling Xiyin and the emperor, Yuan Jinyu didn't dare to ask no matter what.
"Jinyu has thanked Your Majesty, and I have also thanked your old man. Yuan Jinyu bowed.
The emperor just sighed lightly and continued to ask, "Then have you thought about it? What compensation do you want?"
Yuan Jinyu didn't dare to ask for anything with this face, she had an intuition, and it could only be her lifesaver in the future.
So after thinking about it for a long time, she only said: "This time, Jinyu was taken into the palace by the prince first, and His Royal Highness King Ning will come to save Jinyu and kill the guards." The fault is not His Royal Highness, if he can, I hope that the emperor will punish Jinyu, not His Royal Highness King Ning. ”
"I thought you would beg me to forgive him directly. The emperor smiled: "That's it, since I have said that I will compensate you, it is naturally not good for you to make any more requests, and you are waiting for the holy decree of the past few days in the Yuanqing Palace." As for the prison, don't go there for now. ”
"The courtiers obeyed. Yuan Jinyu saluted again, and then walked out of the imperial study.
But when she was about to step out, the emperor asked: "By the way, now it is no longer the prince, but the abolished prince, and he will be beheaded by the whole government." Jinyu thinks that I should choose who should be the new prince?"
Yuan Jinyu's mood suddenly tensed, why did the emperor even ask her such things?
Turning her head, she smiled respectfully: "Your Majesty, the courtiers are just an ordinary woman, and the courtiers really don't understand the major events in the world." ”
The emperor didn't ask again, just waved his hand at her.
Yuan Jinyu walked out nervously and returned to the Yuanqing Palace.
And not long after Yuan Jinyu's step left, a little eunuch ran into the imperial study and whispered to the emperor: "Your Majesty, just now the blood of His Royal Highness King Ning and Miss Jinyu was dripped together, and the result came out......"
……
On the way back to the Yuan Qing Palace, Yuan Jinyu was very peaceful. No one came to stop her, and she didn't try to inquire anything.
The crown prince was deposed, and the queen could not sit down. She thought about her sister-in-law, and she guessed that she was dreaming of being a queen now.
Originally, she just thought about it casually, but as soon as she returned to the Yuanqing Palace, news came from outside the palace, saying that Yuan Xiuyu and Wu Wan'er had a conflict, and the two had a miscarriage together.
Yuan Jinyu's heart chuckled, and he hurriedly went to Concubine Yuan to inquire about the situation.
