Chapter 122 Bring down Concubine De
Zhang Deshun's trial lasted three days. In the past three days, Concubine De has always been frightened, for fear that he will shake off his own affairs. And the emperor did not go to her palace for the past three days, which made Concubine De even more anxious.
Concubine De was restless, and the palace people in the Zhongcui Palace suffered. Concubine De sprinkled fire on them from time to time, and even Zhao Xiyan was scolded by Concubine De a few times. In the past few days, the palace people of Zhongcui Palace have been complaining in private.
"What's the matter, this Deshun will spit out something and let our Concubine De go into the water?" On this day, in the Changle Palace, Jing Shengwu sat leisurely on the soft couch of the lightly spun snow moon veil, lazily trimming his nails.
The shallots look like their nails have just been formed, and they look really good. Jing Shengwu picked the autumn chrysanthemum again to make makeup and dyed it on his nails, looking really elegant and beautiful.
"This prison is not a joke, if Zhang Deshun knows each other, he will naturally spit out things. The punisters in the prison are all specially trained, and which of the people who have been in their hands can resist with blood? ”
Hearing Jing Shengwu's words, Leng Yu said with disdain, "Even if it is a three-foot man, he will have to be sad three times when he sees the people in the prison, not to mention that this Zhang Deshun, a eunuch with no roots, how can he withstand this punishment?" ”
Hearing this, Jing Shengwu sneered and continued to trim his nails. Now, this net has been put away, just waiting to invite Concubine Nade to Wengzhong.
Sure enough, as Jing Shengwu expected, this Zhang Deshun couldn't resist the punishment in the prison at all, and soon in order to save his life, he confided in Concubine De what he had done. However, he still has three points of loyalty, and he only chose two or three things that were not enough for Concubine De to be killed.
This includes Concubine De prompting her dead Shi Qingluan and Huang Que to drug Jing Shengwu and want to kill her. But why the panicked yellow finch assassinated the emperor, even Zhang Deshun is not clear.
There are also some other sins, such as Concubine De once designed to frame the queen, or disrespect the queen, but these are small things, but there is no big crime.
"Hmph. He was also well-behaved, and when he told this, in the end, Changle was rescued by Wu Liang Gongzi, and there was no major damage. Seize on this matter and ask for sin. I'm afraid that according to the emperor's spoiling of her, in the end, it will still turn a big thing into a small matter. ”
In the Millennium Palace, hearing Leng Xiang's answer, the queen said very dissatisfied. Thinking of Concubine De's cunning nature, how could she let her pull her down lightly? But. The only thing that is satisfactory is that Concubine De has admitted that she harmed Jing Shengwu.
Then, Jing Shengwu will think that everything is done by Concubine De, and she will naturally face Concubine De. Even if Concubine De can be safe and sound this time, in the end, she has also planted a thorn in Jing Shengwu's heart. This murderous revenge, how could Jing Shengwu let her go?
Thinking of the girl who was only fourteen years old, the queen sighed regretfully, "This Jing Shengwu is so powerful today, I knew it was like this, I shouldn't have let her swear in front of me in the first place." said that he would not step into the Chu Imperial Mansion for half a step in this life. ”
Otherwise, according to this woman's scheming and strategy, as well as the forces behind her, Ruosi asked Yu'er to marry such a concubine, and the queen would not have to worry about anything. However, now it's too late to say anything, Jing Shengwu has already made a heavy oath.
Moreover, I heard that the emperor also made a promise that he would not let anyone persecute her in the matter of marriage, so he could only ask her opinion. This cut off the queen's desire to ask for a decree for the Chu Emperor.
Hearing the queen say this, Leng Xiang paused, and a stunned light flashed in her eyes.
"Phew!"
In the Fengtian Palace, Jing Sheng put his hands into his sleeves. Standing respectfully on the ground, watching his nose and nose, and watching his heart, there was no movement, just letting the emperor get angry there.
"It's really unreasonable, to do this to my princess like this, and there is no me in my eyes!" Chu Heng listened to Li Ya's return. Said angrily. Li Ya immediately knelt down tremblingly, waiting for the emperor's departure.
"That's it, confine Concubine De to this Zhongcui Palace, and if she doesn't have my orders, she won't be allowed to come out!" Rubbing his forehead, Chu Heng immediately commanded, and Li Ya immediately respectfully accepted the order.
Jing Shengwu, who heard Chu Heng's order, was stunned for a moment, and then thought in his heart. It seems that the emperor doesn't want to dispose of Concubine De. But also, thinking that Concubine De is so favored, the emperor is willing to give her face for herself, a princess who has no status, and it is enough to think about it.
However, if Concubine De escaped punishment so easily, wouldn't it make everyone in this palace think that they could step on her Jing Shengwu's face?
Thinking of this, Jing Shengwu knelt in front of Emperor Chu Heng with a "poof", "Father, my son begs my father to punish Concubine De Niangniang." Otherwise, if she was let go lightly, wouldn't it make everyone in the palace think that assassinating the royal family was a minor crime and could be punished lightly? ”
As she spoke, Jing Shengwu's Shui Mei looked straight at the emperor with big eyes, "If that's the case, I'm afraid that everyone in the harem will be able to attack the royal family at will." Sheng Wu's own safety doesn't matter, but the face of our royal family can't be ignored in the end. ”
Hearing this, Chu Heng was stunned, and looked at Jing Shengwu who was kneeling on the ground and couldn't help but think. Also, if he let Concubine De go lightly, wouldn't others say that he was partial to concubines and favored concubines too much?
Poisoning the royal princess is not a trivial matter, if Concubine De is really spared, I am afraid that Jing Shengwu will also have resentment in his heart. Thinking of Jing Shengwu's role, Chu Heng squinted his eyes again.
"Li Ya, go and pass on my will again, deprive Concubine De of her title, reduce her to a concubine, and become a concubine of Zhao, and think about it for fifteen days in the Zhongcui Palace, and be confined to it, and you are not allowed to go out unless you are edicted."
After thinking for a moment, Chu Heng stroked the golden town dragon head on the table and made a will. Jing Shengwu, who was kneeling on the ground, heard the news and breathed a sigh of relief at the moment, but he did not relax.
"Father, the son thinks that Concubine Zhao is a good-natured person, but she was instigated by her bad palace people. Thinking about it, it was also because of those palace people that Zhao Concubine Niangniang had murderous intentions towards her sons, so why not put these palace people in prison, interrogate them strictly, and replace Zhao Concubine Niangniang with new palace people. ”
As soon as Jing Shengwu's words came out, every word was for the sake of Concubine Zhao, but the meaning of these words was to let the emperor replace all the people in Zhong Cui Palace. After this big blood exchange, I am afraid that Zhao Concubine's henchmen will all die out!
"Well, according to your will, Li Ya. Do what the princess just said. Otherwise, I am afraid that everyone will think that the lives of our royal family are not precious and can be poisoned at will. With a wave of his hand, Chu Heng's face showed a tired look.
Seeing Chu Heng's tired face. Jing Shengwu naturally understood what it meant, and at the moment he was well-behaved, and retreated to Changle Palace. Leng Yu also followed her softly all the time, and put a pearl half-arm on her.
"In the future, our concubine De Niangniang. became Concubine Zhao. Thinking of this news, I can be in the palace. Looking at the blue sky outside, Jing Shengwu said softly.
"That's natural, knowing the princess's power, who would dare to stop the princess's edge?" When Leng Yu heard it, he also smiled softly and said.
After the news that Concubine De was demoted to Concubine Zhao and confined in the palace came out, the palace was in an uproar and couldn't believe it. You must know that in this palace, Concubine De Niangniang is the most favored woman. They were all able to be pulled into the water by Jing Shengwu.
Thinking of this, the eyes of these palace people changed a lot when they looked at Jing Shengwu. Now that she can pull Concubine De into the water, it is easier to deal with other people who are not as favored as Concubine De.
After experiencing this incident, the name of Jing Shengwu in the palace became louder for the first time. The emperor was able to dispose of Concubine De for Jing Shengwu, and he thought that Jing Shengwu was also very attentive.
In the Changle Palace in the past few days, **** have concubines from various palaces coming to reminisce. Jing Shengwu did not refuse to come, his face was kind, and he did not have the slightest domineering momentum. Anyway, these concubines came. All with great gifts, why wouldn't she?
In this way, Jing Shengwu became the queen and the concubine. The hottest characters. Many palace people wanted to sharpen their heads and squeeze into this Changle Palace to do things for Jing Shengwu. But Jing Shengwu didn't accept anyone at all, and only used the palace people who already existed in his palace.
"Miss, now our Changle Palace is really lively." Sent away the people in the palace of the concubine, Xue Yue looked at the jade bracelet in her hand, which was all green, like a pool of spring water, and said. These concubines have the intention to win over Jing Shengwu. Naturally, I won't take that bad thing to rush the defective product.
"Now our princess is the most popular person in this harem. Although it was disposed of by the emperor's hand, no one in the palace knew that this was our princess's idea? Leng Yu was beating Jing Shengwu's legs, and when he heard this, he looked up with a smile and said.
"Well, it's not a good thing to be on the cusp of the storm. Now you are all careful not to let people get hold of us. If you keep a low profile in this house, it doesn't hurt. ”
Looking at the excited looks of several slaves, Jing Shengwu smiled softly and reminded. Since entering the palace, they have been ignored by the palace people, thinking that this princess can be bullied at will. In the end, Jing Shengwu is not from the queen, but just the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Qi'an.
However, if this is the case, I think that the emperor is really towards them, and he can really be arrogant in this palace, I am afraid that it will be wrong.
Chu Heng was just because Concubine De's people wanted to assassinate him at that time and poisoned Jing Shengwu. This assassination of the royal family, especially the emperor, is a great crime. Although Huang Que and Qingluan were dead at that time, why couldn't Concubine De, as the main envoy, teach them a lesson?
"Princess, keep a low profile in this palace, you won't let people deal with you. But if it's too low-key, it will only make people think that you are a bully, princess, and anyone can step on it. Sometimes, it's not too bad to show off your edge. ”
Hearing this, Jing Shengwu looked at Leng Yu and smiled lightly at his red lips. She also understands the meaning of cold rain, and naturally knows how to do it.
Contrary to the atmosphere in Changle Palace, Zhongcui Palace is full of bleak shapes. Concubine De was demoted to Concubine Zhao and grounded in this Zhongcui Palace for fifteen days. Even the palace people of Zhongcui Palace were beaten by those who should be beaten, and those who should be killed, all of them were replaced by newcomers.
Now in this Zhongcui Palace, Concubine Zhao doesn't have any henchmen to talk to at all, except for being able to say a few words to her sister Zhao Xiyan, there is no one else.
"Eldest sister, will this matter affect our Zhao Mansion and my father?"
At night, seeing that those Imperial Forest Army finally took all the palace people away, Zhong Cui's palace was quiet, and Zhao Xiyan asked softly.
Now Concubine De is completely dragged into the water by Jing Shengwu, I am afraid that Jing Shengwu will hold on to this matter and take action against their father. If this is the case, I am afraid that the entire Zhao Mansion will be destroyed!
"I'm not busy, now I'm just out of favor, if I can get the emperor's favor again, these things are nothing! But I don't understand, why did the yellow finch stab at the emperor that day? My will, but let her assassinate Jing Shengwu. ”
Concubine De, no, now Concubine Zhao is sitting in the deserted dormitory, whispering to Zhao Xiyan. The palace people have been replaced with new ones, and she doesn't believe that there are no queen's ears among these palace people.
In the past, Concubine Zhao had the emperor's favor and could be arrogant and unscrupulous, but now she was dragged into the water by Jing Shengwu, and there are not a few concubines in the harem who secretly hate her. How could they not do this thing of beating the water dogs?
"My sister also thinks it's very strange, this yellow finch is my sister's dead soldier, so naturally she won't go against her sister's will. Could it be that there are other people's hands and feet in this? Zhao Xiyan asked softly, her face full of doubts.
Now that Concubine Zhao has been punished by the emperor, although she has not been grounded, she has still been implicated a little in the end. Now, if she goes for a walk in the imperial garden, even the palace people who guard the imperial garden are not so respectful to her as before.
The matter of worshipping high and stepping on low is common in this palace, and it is not uncommon. So Zhao Xiyan was not too surprised. From the moment she came to this palace that day, she understood her end.
"I'm afraid that the queen is doing something here, after all, this Jing Shengwu is nominally her daughter-in-law. But this Jing Shengwu was not picked up by Rong Shizi, the queen has always been at odds with Rong Chu, how could she conspire with Jing Shengwu? ”
Hearing Concubine Zhao's words, a trace of vicious light flashed in Zhao Xiyan's Danfeng eyes, "Eldest sister, I'm afraid that our sisters have been deceived by Jing Shengwu and the queen." If the queen really doesn't agree with Rong Shizi, I'm afraid that she will keep doing it to Jing Shengwu. ”
"But the two of them conspired so much, I'm afraid that the relationship between Rong Shizi and the queen is not as simple as it seems."
Speaking of this, Zhao Xiyan bit her lower lip hatefully, "I'm afraid that this Jing Shengwu is the chess piece that connects Rong Shizi and the queen, Chu Yu." If this is the case, in the future, when the king ascends the throne, Rong Chu will be the founding general. Our sisters, I'm afraid we're going to be buried in the loess! ”
Hearing this, Concubine Zhao's eyes widened, and her head was covered with cold sweat. Zhao Xiyan's words pierced her heart every word. If this is really the case, I am afraid that when it comes to Chu Heng's funeral in the future, their sisters will not even have a place to stay.
"Xiyan, the hope of the eldest sister is all in you. The most important thing for us now is to get the emperor's favor. My sister needs someone to help, but there is only you by my sister's side. ”
When Concubine Zhao said this, Zhao Xiyan was shocked. She vaguely understood what Concubine Zhao meant, was it for her to sacrifice her youth? Thinking of doing this, Zhao Xiyan faintly resisted in her heart.
If she was asked to go with Chu Yu, she would have nothing to resist, but if she was asked to spend her years with a bad old man......
"Xiyan, my sister is the only one by her side, if you don't help your sister, how can you bring down Jing Shengwu? Our sisters need to be of the same heart to be able to break the gold! Seeing Zhao Xiyan hesitating, Zhao Concubine suddenly grabbed her hand and said.
Looking at Concubine Zhao's anxious look, and thinking about Rong Chu's maintenance of Jing Shengwu in the future, Zhao Xiyan finally nodded and agreed. (To be continued.) )
