Chapter Eighty-Seven: Auspicious Rui (II)

"Go, go and give the flowers to your father!"

With Shen Hao's encouragement, Liang Xi timidly walked to the center of the main hall, his petite body swaying slightly, and he took the flower pot from the eunuch's hand. The heavy flower pot was a little heavy for a child like Liang Xi, who tightened her arm holding the flower pot, and looked nervously at her mother sitting next to her. After receiving Shen Hao's nod, Liang Xi continued to walk in the direction of the main seat.

Liang Yinhao looked at his son, smiling very lovingly, he stretched out his hand and motioned for his son to come closer, so that he could take the flower pot, but what he didn't expect was that in an instant, the Qin Hulian in the pot suddenly changed in front of everyone. The lotus stem in Liang Xi's hand began to droop low, and the flowers and leaves gradually turned slightly yellowish from the original emerald green, lifeless, and looked like they were about to wither and die.

Everyone was shocked by this sudden scene, and Liang Xi, who was holding the flower pot, was even more panicked, and as soon as his palm loosened, the entire flower pot immediately slipped from his hand, and the tiles and soil fell to the ground.

"Oh my God! This is a bad omen! Tang Meiren covered her mouth slightly with a silk handkerchief, and shouted in surprise, her voice was just enough for the emperor and empress and others to hear.

Queen Huo has always looked down on Shen Zhen's mother and son, so of course she will not let go of the good opportunity to add fuel to the fire at this moment. Huo's body leaned slightly in the direction of Liang Yinhao, and said softly: "This flower has always been good when I was in the inner prison before, how can it be in the hands of the eldest prince?"

The queen is just a point, but after Liang Yinhao heard it, her face was even more gloomy and terrifying, and the fierceness in her eyes turned into a haze before the mountain rain was about to come, sweeping and spreading inch by inch, and even the fine lines are now visible, densely piled up in the corners of her eyes.

Seeing this scene, most of the people in the hall bowed their heads and remained silent, but some of them were bold and began to whisper. "It can't be an ominous person."

As soon as Shen Zhen heard this, she couldn't bear it anymore, she hurried to Liang Xi's side, nervously united her son in her arms, looked at everyone and retorted: "Nonsense! Xi'er is not an ominous person. This is just an accident, a coincidence, and it's none of Xi'er's business! ”

"The emperor is angry, today is a festive day, don't spoil everyone's good mood for celebration for these little episodes." The queen pretended to be comforted, but when she listened carefully, there was an imperceptible thorn in it. The queen then summoned the chief attendant who was kneeling under His Royal Highness, and said, "Father-in-law Xu, don't hurry up and call someone to clean up, how can the filthy things in this place make people eat." ”

Shen Zhen's heart sank, and she hurriedly pulled her son, knelt on the ground and begged for mercy: "Xi'er was negligent for a while, which swept away the emperor's interest, and I hope that the emperor will spare Xi'er's filial piety and well-behaved on weekdays, and spare the concubine, mother and son." ”

Emperor Liang Yinhao still stared at the mother and son in the hall without saying a word, and the cold light from his eyes made Shen Zhen hairy. It's no wonder that Liang Yinhao was angry, it was originally a good time to be in the limelight in front of everyone, and it was also a good way to show that since he ascended the throne, the country has been peaceful, and even the heavens have been moved by it, so a miracle has fallen from the sky. But I didn't expect it to be so messed up, Liang Yinhao can be regarded as losing face in front of everyone this time. Not only that, but what makes Liang Yinhao most helpless is that if he is messed up by a little eunuch, he will kill him if he kills him, and he can also dissipate this evil breath. But this flower withered in the hands of his own son, and he was also the eldest son of the emperor, which made him endure this breath.

Seeing that the emperor was about to erupt, everyone was silent, and looked at the little prince who was kneeling on the ground trembling with concern. At this time, Liang Yinhuan finally couldn't stand it, this matter was too coincidental, and the coincidence made people feel weird, and there must be a lot of articles in it. Anyone with a discerning eye can see things, but he doesn't understand why Liang Yinhao is still hesitant and refuses to let go of Concubine Zhen's mother and son. Liang Yinhuan just wanted to get up and speak for Concubine Zhen's mother and son, but he was suddenly quietly pressed on his shoulder by Hu Zhihan, the secretary of the Ministry of Shangshu beside him. Liang Yinhao looked at the other party in astonishment, but at this moment Zhou Wenxin did not turn his head to face him, but just shook his head without a trace, indicating that he should not act rashly at this moment.

Liang Yinhuan lowered his head and thought for a moment, and finally his tense body suddenly loosened, he angrily picked up the wine glass on the table, drank it all, and the hot wine passed through his intestines, causing a stomach cramp. Liang Yinhuan knew in his heart that Hu Zhihan was stopping him at this moment for his own good, and with his current status, it was not suitable to refute the emperor's face in front of the ministers. On the other hand, in the current situation, he should try his best to gain the emperor's trust, and he should be able to avoid other forces in the court. If he rashly said good things for Concubine Zhen and the eldest prince just now, it would definitely arouse Liang Yinhao's suspicion, suspecting that he was colluding with Concubine Zhen's mother and son.

Liang Yinhuan understands the truth, but at this moment he still feels indignant, he hates Liang Yinhao's cold-blooded ruthlessness, and even hates his weakness and incompetence. Shen Hao was also his childhood friend, although in the end she failed to get together with Yun Muchen, but married her imperial brother in the blink of an eye. But Yun Muchen's feelings for Shen Zhen back then, he was a brother in his eyes. Liang Yinhuan thought to himself: Even if Mu Chen has reached Bliss, as long as he has a spirit in the sky, he definitely doesn't want to see Shen Zhen suffer such grievances.

During this whole process, Mu Qing never said a word, but under the seemingly plain eyes, he paid attention to the every move of everyone in this hall, and smiled. If she notices any unusual reaction or behavior from someone, she can lock on to the target and start an investigation from that person.

About half a pillar of incense, Liang Yinhao finally spoke. "Everyone has eaten and played to their heart's content today, and the time is almost up. I am also tired, so let it be scattered. ”

Seeing that the emperor was not furious because of this incident, but was confused by a few words, everyone's hanging hearts finally relaxed. But just before Liang Yinhao left, he suddenly paused, looked at Shen Zhen's mother and son expressionlessly, and said, "I see that the eldest prince is not looking good today, it is better to stay in Yiqian Palace in the future to recuperate, and don't run outside without my instructions." Concubine Zhen also stayed in the palace and took good care of the prince! ”

His Royal Highness couldn't help but gasp when he heard this, this is simply house arrest, and it is also an indefinite house arrest, what is the difference between being in the cold palace?

Shen Zhen was not as surprised as the others, her face was calm and she knelt down, her faint voice revealing her usual composure and calmness, like the melodious sound of the wind under the moon in the dark night. "Concubines... Thank you, Emperor Longen! (To be continued.) )
