There was a moment of silence in the courtroom. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Concubine Chen raised her eyes to look at Zhao Yuan, Zhao Yuan had a faint sadness between her eyebrows, pursed her lips tightly and did not speak.

The queen lowered her head and wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and her shoulders shook silently, as if she had suppressed a great grievance.

"King Alcohol took out the incident when he was a child to blackmail his parents again, and it looks like this time it is likely to succeed again." Concubine Chen secretly cursed in her heart.

She knew that this matter was taboo and could not be mentioned, but in today's situation, if she didn't speak again, wouldn't it be tantamount to letting go of King Alcohol?

So Concubine Chen lightly opened her lips, and her tone was still as light as she usually was: "If there is nothing to do here, the concubine will retire." Fuyue was seriously injured, and the concubine wanted to see him. Every time he drank the medicine, his abdomen was like a knife......"

"That kid still loves to laugh, and when it hurts, beads of sweat the size of beans on his head ooze out, and he pretends to be fine......"

What she meant, Zhao Yuan didn't know. Besides, this matter is so big, it is impossible for him not to give an explanation to the civil and military officials.

So, Zhao Yuan glanced at Concubine Chen, raised his hand and made a gesture for her to sit down.

Then, he said to the people below: "Spread my will: King Alcohol does not obey the will, and his words are disrespectful, and it is not appropriate to stay in Luoyang any longer. Then he was demoted to the king of alcohol county, stationed in Yunzhou, and set off tomorrow, after which he was not allowed to return to Beijing without a holy decree. ”

After hearing this, Liu Fuquan frowned, looked nervous and slowly withdrew from the hall, and rushed to the palace to pass the decree.

Contrary to everyone's expectations, Concubine Chen did not show a trace of joy when she heard the emperor's decision. Her two willow eyebrows slowly locked, and the sense of loss overflowed in the corners of her eyes, as if it was not the alcohol king but the rui king who was degraded.

Because, as shrewd as she is, she has already noticed that the emperor is a bright and depreciating and secretly ascending.

Yunzhou is the first important town in the northern Xinjiang of the Great Qi State, not only a pass to resist the southward movement of the Khitan, but also a hub of trade with the countries of the Western Regions.

Especially after the southern pillars broke off contact with the Western Regions, it became a gathering place for major merchants and nobles in the Central Plains.

There are also 300,000 elite soldiers of the Great Qi State hoarded here. After layers of strict screening, the generals here are loyal and proficient in the art of war.

Not to mention, Wenchen is proficient in trade, management, culture, agriculture, animal husbandry, and textiles...... Elites from all walks of life gather here. It can be said that this is the second economic and cultural center of the Great Qi Kingdom in addition to Luoyang.

Leading such a place not only broadens one's horizons and makes friends with celebrities, but more importantly, one can accumulate political capital.

Concubine Chen had also tested Zhao Yuan's mind many times before, hoping to send King Rui to Yunzhou for training, but Zhao Yuan never let go. Unexpectedly, for the sake of the alcohol king, he agreed so easily today.

Although she cried out for her son a hundred times in her heart, Concubine Chen finally held back and didn't say anything. Because through this incident, she has felt Zhao Yuan's special doting and love for her son-in-law.

"There are some things that can't be fought over, but fortunately, the future will be long." Concubine Chen forcibly suppressed the sourness in her heart and silently comforted herself.

Zhao Yuan saw that Concubine Chen didn't speak in the end, and his heart suddenly softened: "She has always been sensible." ”

Just as Zhao Yuan was about to get up and leave, the queen suddenly stood up and looked at him with a resentful expression.

"Can the emperor bear to leave Fuchu in that bitter cold place?" In the queen's opinion, letting King Alcohol leave Luoyang at this time is exile.

Seeing that the queen finally opened her mouth, Zhao Yuan could only respond: "Zitong, why do you say this?" Isn't it right for Fu Chu to share worries for the country as a prince? ”

"Is the emperor angry with Fu Chu because of the matter of Tianyuan Pool?" Because of her son's departure, the queen's reason has been swayed by her emotions, and she began to be a little reluctant.

Zhao Yuan glanced at her with some embarrassment, knowing that she couldn't hold her breath again. But there are some things that can't be said too clearly, and it's still in front of Concubine Chen. After thinking about returning to Longkang Palace, she calmed down and naturally figured it out.

So Zhao Yuan lowered his eyelids and said coldly: "Although there is no obvious evidence that today's incident was instigated by King Alcohol, his subordinates committed something, and he can't escape the blame." ”

The queen listened to his words and knew that today's decision was irretrievable, and the resentment in her heart had reached its peak. She thought, "If you separate my flesh and bones, I won't be able to make you better." ”

Thinking of this, the queen said in a voice that was neither high nor low: "Since it is difficult to escape the blame, Du Yunyang, the director of today's regatta, is the first one who can't escape it!" ”

As soon as she said this, Zhao Yuanben's drooping eyelids immediately lifted, and there was anger in his expression that could not be hidden.

Seeing him like this, the queen felt even more relieved, and then said: "Now bring her to the court bureau and punish her in front of everyone, maybe you can recruit the real mastermind behind the scenes!" ”

As soon as she said this, not to mention how Zhao Yuan reacted, Concubine Chen had to secretly say in her heart: "It's too much." ”

Du Yunyang, a five-grade female official who can gather poetry and books as soon as she enters Hanyang Palace, can dominate the Qi Ao Palace, which has a self-evident meaning. Everyone in the palace understands in their hearts, and everyone doesn't say anything, they all want to comply with the emperor's wishes.

But today, the queen actually came against her and pulled her out to hit Zhao Yuan, it was really stupid.

Concubine Chen lowered her head and put the ochre-colored embroidered fairy peach pattern three-way yarn handkerchief in her hand on her cheeks, covering a sneer at the corner of her lips. She said in her heart: "If it wasn't for the marriage of the first emperor, how could I sit in this position with the qualifications of the queen?" ”

"Over the years, if it weren't for the fact that she had a son-in-law, and the emperor was a person who missed her old feelings very much, how could the queen have been able to sit firmly in this position for all these years?"

"However, I'm afraid that this time, the emperor will not be able to tolerate her again."

Sure enough, Zhao Yuan's tone was already stern: "The state has national laws, and the family has family rules, don't you even understand this as the queen?" There is no evidence that Du Yunyang is involved. ”

"But you want to arrest her to the court bureau and torture her indiscriminately? It's really not as good as the village woman's knowledge! ”

The queen saw that Zhao Yuan was angry for Du Yunyang, she saw it in her eyes, and the emotions in her heart were more complicated, and she didn't know whether it was the joy of revenge or the more violent loss.

In this case, it is better to be willful to the end today.

The emperor was already annoyed, so he had to do this matter even more, otherwise wouldn't it be in vain?

So the queen continued: "Since Zitong took charge of the harem, he has always adhered to the palace rules, and the rewards and punishments are clear. There is such a big thing happening in Tianyuan Pool, but the female officer in charge is not responsible, which is unjustifiable in any way. ”

Even though she was not involved in this matter, she could not escape the neglect of this matter. With this alone, she could no longer stay in Hanyang Palace. ”

"It should be pulled here to play forty boards and go out of the palace!"
