After the early dynasty, as soon as Qi Rong came out of the Qianming Palace, Wei An followed, whispered for a while, and handed over the beads in his hand, Qi Rong's eyes narrowed slightly, the corners of his mouth tightened, Wei An saw it and retreated, and secretly said, this time someone is going to suffer again. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info "Lord?"

"You wait here, I'll go see Your Majesty. Qi Rong dropped the words and turned around and went to the side hall, just when he saw Gonggong Lin.

Gonggong Lin greeted him with a smile and saluted, "The slave sees the prince, the prince came here to find His Majesty at this hour?"

Qi Rong bowed his head, "Your Majesty can be in the imperial study?"

Gonggong Lin leaned in and whispered, "Your Majesty is freshening up, and I will go to the queen's palace for breakfast later." ”

Qi Rong nodded, threw a purse over, "I will honor your father-in-law for you, and drink tea for the rest." ”

Gonggong Lin hurriedly took it, pinched it with his hand, and showed a knowing smile, this Rong Wang Ye is more and more valued by His Majesty in the court, and he is naturally willing to please, yesterday Miss Zhen fell into the Huaye Pool and the prince invited Imperial Doctor Jiang into Zhen's Mansion and invited it again overnight, thinking that Miss Zhen has suffered a big sin, and this will Rong Wang Ye come to His Majesty I am afraid that he will find trouble. But what does all this have to do with one of his chamberlains?

The one waiting in front of the emperor is Guan Gonggong, a white-faced round-faced father-in-law who does not need to be forty years, a pair of smiling eyes makes it easy to ignore the power in his hands, if one accidentally offends him, he is afraid that he will die.

"Yo, why is Prince Rong still staying in the palace today and not returning to the house to rest?"

Qi Rong's face was not very good, "I'm tired of my father-in-law Guan to help this king inform him, and this king wants to see His Majesty." ”

Father-in-law Guan bent over, "Okay, Lord Wang, please wait, let's go and report." ”

I saw that Gonggong Guan had just shown his face when he entered, and Emperor Zong asked, "But Prince Rong is outside." ”

Guan Gonggong smiled and narrowed his eyes slightly, "Your Majesty Shengming." ”

Emperor Zong waved his hand, "Let him come in." ”

Guan Gonggong welcomed Qi Rong into the hall, and Qi Rong knelt down and saluted, "My brother has seen Your Majesty." ”

Emperor Zong raised his hand, "Get up, your own family doesn't need to be polite." If you don't go back to your home early in the morning to have a good rest, why did you come here?"

Qi Rong landed on his knees, "The younger brother has come to disturb the imperial brother today, and asked the imperial brother to be the master of the younger brother." ”

Emperor Zong's eyes narrowed slightly, and his eyes, which were very similar to Qi Rong's, let out a sharp mang, "Oh, please speak first, how do you want me to make decisions for you?"

Qi Rong kowtowed first before getting up and said, "Your Majesty, did the minister go to Jiangnan to sweep away corrupt officials and clean up officials, was it on the orders of His Majesty? Is the evidence of the crimes of Shan Zixiong and his son true? Did His Majesty order them to be put in prison?"

The Emperor turned the jade finger of his left thumb, "What does King Rong mean by this?"

Qi Rong's face turned pale, and he said loudly: "When the minister first went down to the south of the Yangtze River, when the Qing officials ruled, there were many obstacles, and later he was attacked several times, but fortunately, the minister's brother had a big life, and he finally returned safely after being blessed by the saint." didn't think about it, but because of this, he made a feud with someone, causing the future princess to be assassinated in the palace and almost died. Your Majesty, if your brother is worried about the monarch and his family outside, he will suffer such retribution, then the minister asks Your Majesty not to send any more errands to your brother in the future, and the brother only needs to be an idle prince. ”

The emperor's face darkened, and he asked in a deep voice, "Is there any evidence for King Rong's words?"

Qi Rong threw off his clothes and landed on one knee, "Your Majesty, when Jiu Niang entered the palace, there was a maid and a grandmother waiting with him, and when she fell into the water, there were people in the queen's palace watching, and there was no one near the Hua Liquid Pool, how Jiu Niang fell into the Hua Liquid Pool, it is impossible for no one to see clearly." Concubine Shuniang assured in front of the queen that Jiu Niang stepped on a pebble and fell into the pool of Huali, but in the end, she didn't see the pebble, and it was Wei An who found it in the place where Jiu Niang fell. With that, he lifted the bead in his hand.

Guan Gonggong took it and handed it to the emperor, who took it in his hand and looked at it for a while, looking at Guan Gonggong.

Guan Gonggong took a closer look and said: "Your Majesty, this is the cat's eye tourmaline bracelet that Xiqi paid tribute to when His Majesty first ascended the ceremony. At that time, you gave one string each to the concubine, the queen, the concubine Yi, the concubine and the concubine De, and the remaining four strings were stored in the treasury, saying that they were going to be rewarded to the princesses. ”

The Emperor took it over and looked at it carefully, "When you say this, I have some impressions. In this way, Zhen Jiuniang didn't step on any pebbles, but stepped on this bead?"

Qi Rong said: "Your Majesty, Jiu Niang said that at that time, she not only stepped on the bead but was also hit by someone, and then poured it into the pool of Chinese liquid." Otherwise, how could it be so clever that he fell into the pool of Chinese liquid with the maid?"

The emperor looked sideways, "King Rong said that Zhen Jiuniang was bumped into by someone?"

"Please also ask Your Majesty to be clear, now Jiu Niang and the maids around her all say that someone hit them, but Concubine Shu Yi Concubine Zhang Jieyu insisted that Jiu Niang stepped on the pebbles and slipped into the Huaye Pool by herself. Kechen thought, how could there be so many palace maids next to the Huaye Pool, how could they still leave pebbles, you must know that now is the most beautiful season in the Huaye Pool, and there are concubines who go there to enjoy the flowers from time to time, how can it be so coincidental, the pebbles were stepped on by my Jiuniang, and fell into the pool. Your Majesty, Jiu Niang has asked the queen to withdraw the marriage, you say, is it easy for the courtier to wait for so many years? If you don't find out, Jiu Niang still thinks that the courtier is an enemy everywhere, and wants to put the courtier brother and her to death?"

The emperor's face finally changed greatly, and after thinking for a long time, he compromised and said, "Okay, don't be alarmist, I know that you want to breathe a sigh of relief for that Zhen Jiuniang, and I will deal with this matter." In the future, don't talk about the enemy and the place of death, if you are frightened by a woman, then my courtiers of the Great Zhou still have loyalty at all, and justice at all?"

"Your Majesty, if the courtiers are alone, what is there to fear even if they die? It's just that the courtiers are cold, if the harem concubines rely on the authority of Your Majesty to act wantonly and wantonly, arbitrarily suppress the wives, and mutilate the lives of others, the courtiers think, how will those women be afraid? What will happen to their husbands? If a man can't even protect his own pillow person, how can he talk about governing the people and the world? Please think deeply. ”

The emperor took a deep breath, his eyes widened, and his heart turned rapidly, the reason why the last trip to Jiangnan was pushed to this new prince was because those ministers knew who was behind them, so they didn't dare to take over, for fear of being retributed? No one dared to take over the Huainan corruption case this time, was it involved with the palace people again?

"Guan Yi, pass on my message, if the concubine can get the cat's eye tourmaline bracelet, she will be grounded for three months, if she can't get it intact, she will be reduced to Shunhua and move out of the main hall of Zhanghua Palace, Yigui Concubine will take her title, Zhang Jieyu will be reduced to the selection of servants to live in the cold palace, so that the queen Xiaoyu six palaces. ”

Guan Yi gasped when he heard this, turned around after bowing his head to receive the order, and when he went out of the door, he couldn't help but look back at the figure standing straight, with a look of immobility that let you blow from east to west, north and south, and my heart tightened, I can't offend this King Rong in the future! His Majesty's temperament he can no longer understand in his thirties, and he is the most indifferent to the women in the harem, but he is the most protective of his shortcomings, he can move, but he does not let others move, today Prince Rong can force His Majesty to do something to the concubine and a few people, it is really not to be underestimated. But if you want to come back, these two people deserve to have the same blood, and they are both people who protect their shortcomings. It's just that in comparison, His Majesty attaches more importance to the country. (To be continued.) )
