Chapter 66: The Miscarriage Turmoil
The queen smiled: "Yes, the last time the eighth princess entered the palace, she suddenly had abdominal pain, saying that she had been pregnant for a month, so the palace hurriedly sent her back to the palace. ”
Ye Tiantong's face flushed: "This ...... This is because the fourth prince has had too many things recently, and he doesn't have time to accompany his concubines well......"
While they were talking, Chu Litian raised his eyebrows and asked in a low voice, "When did this happen?" How did I not know? ”
Ye Zitong's face was cold, and he didn't want to pay attention to him.
On the way back to the palace, Chu Litian kept staring at her belly, and from time to time a sentence popped up: "Are you really pregnant?" ”
When he asked for the sixth time, Ye Zitong finally got impatient and slapped his position: "No!" I'm not pregnant! Pretending to be pregnant was just to deal with the queen at that time! How? Are you happy? ”
Chu Litian's eyebrows could not hide a touch of disappointment, and he turned his head and said coldly: "You are not pregnant but lie to the queen, it is also a crime of deception, if your belly still can't rise in three or four months, the queen will blame you." ”
"That's my business, what does it have to do with you?" Ye Zitong's mouth was almost up to the sky.
Chu Litian gasped, it seemed that he was bound to have a good talk with her: "Zitong, I know that you are angry about Zhang Ying's life, and your words today also woke me up, it is true that everyone is the same, but many times you can't admit death, Zhang Ying's father is an official in the court, if your family law severely punishes her and hurts the child in her womb, her father will definitely not give up, and will come to you for trouble for various reasons, I don't want you to be involved, I don't have to protect her." ”
Ye Zitong was stunned, looked at him, so sincere that she seemed to take out a beating heart and put it in front of her, she had no reason not to believe it, sighed faintly, and suddenly changed her tone: "But if Zhang Ying does this again, I will never let her go again." ”
"Don't worry, Ying'er was just manslaughter before, not intentionally, and she cried for a long time after the incident."
Ye Zitong snorted coldly: "It's hiding in your arms and crying for a long time, right?" ”
A smile appeared at the corner of Chu Litian's mouth: "Although you give me a headache when you are jealous, your jealous appearance is indeed very cute." ”
"Cute fart!" Ye Zitong grabbed the cushion casually and threw it towards Chu Litian.
He took it with one hand and smiled: "Zitong, you are getting more and more cute, it really makes me love and hate." ”
Bang-bang-bang-bang-what's that jumbled sound?
Perhaps, it's the chaotic heartbeat that can't be controlled involuntarily when falling in love.
The two held hands and just returned to the palace, and before they could sit down, they saw a female worker crying and begging Ye Zitong to put out the fire, saying that Zhang Ying was bullying the female worker again.
As soon as she heard this, Ye Zitong's face was as gloomy as a dark winter night, and she walked straight towards Zhang Ying's residence, and heard Zhang Ying shouting angrily from a distance.
"What's wrong again?" Ye Zitong yelled at Zhang Ying, "Why do you have so many things to do all day long? It's not enough to kill a female worker before, do you want to continue to be presumptuous? ”
"Ye Zitong, don't spew blood!" Zhang Ying was surprisingly angry, "I just passed by this female worker, and she bounced away from me and hit her head on the stone pillar on the side, what does this have to do with me?" It's hateful that she actually said that I hit it, which is too much! I can't suffer this in vain! ”
"Did anyone see that Concubine Zhang didn't push this female worker?" Ye Zitong turned around and asked everyone, but everyone shook their heads, indicating that they didn't see it.
Zhang Ying's face turned red with anger, and she scolded: "You are all farting!" You were all here when she fell to the ground, how could you not have seen it? ”
"We're here, but we're all working and we don't see what's going on."
Ye Zitong glared at Zhang Ying with anger on his face: "You have always been stirring up trouble, what do you have to say about my female worker?" ”
"There are so many opinions! Originally, my courtyard was small, but now that these ten people have come in, it looks even smaller, doesn't it? And I'm pregnant, so I can't walk, and I have to shuttle between them, and I might fall down at some point, don't you think it's dangerous? ”
"So you're reducing their numbers one by one?"
Looking at Ye Zitong's almost burning gaze, Zhang Ying suddenly realized that she had said the wrong thing, she shook her head: "I didn't mean that, I will admit it if I did it, but I will definitely not admit it if I didn't do it!" ”
"No, you should admit it when others see it, and if others don't see it, you will die in the end?" Ye Zitong looked at Chu Litian coldly, "You also saw it?" It's up to you to decide what to do. ”
Zhang Ying's pitiful little eyes looked at Chu Litian: "Lord Wang, it's really not a concubine, if it's a concubine, the concubine will admit it, but it's really not a concubine." ”
The female workers had already taken the injured into the house to rest, and Ye Zitong yelled at Chu Litian's personal attendant: "Why don't you go to get the family law?" ”
This time, Chu Litian didn't speak, he could protect Zhang Ying once, but he didn't have a second chance.
"Lord, save the concubine, the concubine is really innocent!" Zhang Ying barely knelt down and begged for mercy.
But when she saw the leather whip in Laixi's hand, her legs were weak, and she knelt down with a plop: "Lord Wang, please save your concubine for the sake of many years of love!" Not to mention whether the concubine is innocent or not, but the child conceived by the concubine is yours of the prince! Please raise your noble hand and spare the concubine! ”
"Before you killed someone by mistake, this king was already disheartened with you, and now you have done such a thing, how can this king spare you? If you don't discipline you well, you will only lose the reputation of this king! ”
Chu Litian angrily took the leather whip and whipped it Zhang Ying's body.
Zhang Ying screamed, and tears flowed down: "Lord Wang, the concubine knows that she is wrong, you spare the concubine, the concubine will never dare again, never dare again!" ”
"Now that you know you're wrong, get on your knees and get beaten." Ye Zitong glanced at her coldly and turned to leave.
Looking at Ye Zitong's back, Zhang Ying gritted her teeth with hatred, eager to scold her, but she was afraid that the prince would be furious when she heard it, so she could only break her teeth and swallow it in her stomach, but she would not forget it, this qiē is Ye Zitong's fault! If it weren't for her instigation, how could the prince beat himself? Ye Zitong, you shameless goblin, you will be her enemy from now on, and you must see her fall into the abyss from which she can't extricate herself!
Not long after Ye Zitong returned to Yunju, he heard the news of Zhang Ying's miscarriage, his heart sank, and he immediately told himself that it was inevitable, so he suppressed his guilt.
She was only two or three months pregnant, she was hit a few days ago, the fetal gas was unstable, and now she is kneeling and beating, which is the most likely position for miscarriage.
At this time, Chu Litian should hate himself to death, Ye Zitong thought, after all, it is very heartbreaking to beat Zhang Ying's unborn child, thinking that the initiator is his own princess, it is estimated that he will not be willing to see her for a long time.
And this matter is only the beginning, not the end, and the intricate network of relationships in it is not something that Ye Zitong can imagine.
Zhang Ying's father is a product of the Ministry of Shangshu, and he is very good friends with civil officials and ministers on weekdays, and after learning that his pregnant daughter was beaten by the eighth prince and had a miscarriage, he formed a bond with him, not only against him everywhere in the last dynasty, but also played a fold to impeach him, and all of the above are loopholes in the king's law, if people who don't know look at it, they will definitely feel that this person is stubborn, and the mud can't support the wall.
In fact, the emperor didn't really love Chu Litian, and at first he was named the prince just because he and Ye Zitong were in love, and Ye Zitong made great contributions, so he was just a passing, and when he was in the auxiliary government, the emperor realized his potential to govern the country, but this qiē was still not as good as a book from the ministers.
These charges taken out of context made Emperor Long Yan furious, and he immediately called Chu Litian for interrogation, and Chu Litian confessed, but before he could explain the reason, the emperor angrily threw the song on his face.
"You're my good son! I thought you were honest and honest, but I didn't expect that you, like your seventh uncle, are people who forget their righteousness and are greedy for glory and wealth, and you have done so many things that have lost your conscience, say it yourself, how can I punish you?! ”
"Father, the content in this memorabilia is taken out of context, only writing how the sons and daughters broke the law, but not what the sons and daughters are, if the father and the emperor listen to it, they will punish the sons, and the sons and daughters will listen to it."
The emperor is not an unreasonable person, although he is more impulsive, he still listens to Chu Litian explain the reason.
And what he didn't know was that every illegal thing on this piece of music was actually for him, although the way was very extreme, but the reason was well-intentioned, after listening to it, the emperor froze, and he didn't know how to deal with it.
"Erchen is not afraid of taking responsibility, when he did these things, Erchen already thought of the consequences, Erchen just didn't want to face the disappointed eyes of his father when he looked at his son, so he told you all the reasons, now please punish me."
Chu Litian's words made the emperor's heart surge, he had nine sons and eleven daughters in his life, but none of them were willing to break the law to do these things for him, even Chu Yatian had never had it, and then thinking about Chu Litian's wise decision when he was in power, a thought flashed through his mind.
"That's it, I won't punish you anymore, you can go back."
Chu Litian raised his head in astonishment: "Your Majesty, but this fold is clearly written, if you don't punish your sons, I'm afraid it will cause Lord Zhang's dissatisfaction." ”
"Litian, why did Zhang Mingyuan impeach his uncle, what are the holidays between you?"
"Because Zhang Ying made a mistake a few days ago, and her son punished her with family law, and led her to have a miscarriage, Lord Zhang may feel uncomfortable, so he ......" Chu Litian's words stopped abruptly.
