Chapter 498: Self-inflicted
Hehe, these people guessed wrong, the least nervous person in the family is Du Jiumei. Isn't it just a rumor, I am used to abusing the water army on the Internet in my previous life, this rumor is nothing at all! As for the marriage that will affect her, hmph, she doesn't care, she was killed by a man in her previous life, and the psychological shadow is so big, it hasn't disappeared yet. It's good if she doesn't get married in this life, she is rich and powerful, and she can still live a beautiful life.
It is said that Emperor Wu of Jin heard the rumors about Du Jiumei from the Queen Mother, and he was so angry that he became angry, so he agreed to King Guangling's request, and someone trampled on Du Jiu on his hind feet. This is not only to provoke King Guangling, but also not to take him as an emperor in his eyes.
Some people want to use him and King Guangling as pawns, they have too much appetite, and they are not afraid to die!
Emperor Wu of Jin once again came to the queen's dormitory angrily, slapped the queen in the face, and angrily reprimanded: "The good things you have done, you are dissatisfied with me, you can come at me, why do you want to attack a little girl and slander the reputation of others?" β
The queen was originally happy because the emperor came to her bedroom again, but now she was suddenly slapped in the face, very puzzled, and quickly knelt on the ground to justify: "Please also ask the emperor to know clearly, the concubine really doesn't know what you said." The concubines did not dare to be dissatisfied with His Majesty, and they never slandered the reputation of others! β
The emperor was extremely angry, in fact, he knew in his heart that things were very strange, but he just wanted to get angry, and said angrily: "It is rumored that Dou Huirong and Du Jiu have a personal affair outside, that is, after you want to promulgate their decree to give marriage, you said that it was not you who spread it, who spread it?" β
When the queen heard this, she was not smart after living in the palace for so many years. But he also knew a lot of things, and immediately retorted: "Your Majesty Mingjian, after Your Majesty reprimanded the concubines, he has been thinking about it behind closed doors, and even the concubines and the invitations outside the palace have been pushed, and the prince came to ask for peace, but the concubines didn't see it, and they didn't know anything about the outside world at all." Moreover, His Majesty has already warned the concubines, even if the concubines are stupid. Nor will such a thing be done. Someone must have taken the opportunity to spread rumors. slandered the concubines, provoked the contradiction between His Majesty and the King of Guangling, and reaped the benefits of the fisherman. Your Majesty, you must learn that γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» concubine is wrongedγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»"
Hear the queen say so. Emperor Wu of Jin's anger had gradually subsided. This queen is not smart. Sometimes it's a little stupid, but overall, it's still very obedient. It's really not stupid to do such a thing!
"Hmph, even if it's not a rumor spreading, but Du Jiu's incident is also because of you, if you don't have selfishness, how can others take advantage of loopholes! What the hell is going on, I will investigate, so you can think about it behind closed doors. After Emperor Wu of Jin finished speaking, he snorted and left quickly.
The queen sat on the ground in despair, and when Mama Chen saw this, she hurriedly stepped forward to help, and it was a matter of always sitting on the ground!
"Queen, Your Majesty is gone, get up quickly, it's cold on the ground!" Mama Chen said softly, supporting the dejected queen.
After a while, the queen came to her senses, looked at Mama Chen and said, "Mama, there is such a big thing outside, how can my brother not let people send the news out?" In particular, this matter is still due to the main palace. β
Mama Chen was also very strange, and suddenly a terrible thought came to her, and after careful consideration, she said cautiously: "Niangniang, is it that the person who delivered the news was bribed?" β
When Empress Chen heard this, she was horrified in her heart, if this is the case, then something is wrong, there are many things that have been passed in through that person, if they rebel, they will definitely have a lot of secrets.
"I can't trust others, Mama, you go out in person and ask my brother if he has sent news to the palace, and at the same time I will send someone to the East Palace to see if the prince knows?" Empress Chen confessed, restless, compared to someone betraying, the emperor's anger is nothing!
It's just a matter of thinking about it behind closed doors, she doesn't care, anyway, she's so old, she doesn't need to be favored, it doesn't matter if the emperor comes or not!
Mama Chen packed up her things, took the token, and hurried out of the palace.
Seeing Pingyang Hou Chen Bin, before Mama Chen had time to ask, Pingyang Hou preemptively asked: "Did the queen let those rumors go out?" β
Mama Chen shook her head again and again: "No, it really wasn't released by the queen." After the queen's decree was reprimanded by His Majesty, it did not continue. Master Hou, the rumors outside, did you send someone to deliver the letter? β
"Yes, I sent several letters, but I didn't receive a reply from the queen." Pingyang Hou said angrily, "I didn't get a response from the queen, I thought it was the queen who made a petty nature." The rumors outside have slandered the reputation of the granddaughter of the king of Guangling, but it is not a good thing for us, Benhou sent people to stop the rumors, but the rumors are getting stronger and stronger, and they can't be stopped! β
"Master Hou, something bad is wrong." Mama Chen was shocked, let's not talk about those rumors, the key is that their people were bought, "Master Hou, the queen mother and the old slave still learned about the rumors of Du Jiu and Dou Huirong from the emperor today, and none of the letters you sent sent reached us." It can be seen that our people have been bought! β
Pingyang Hou was shocked and dumbfounded: "Impossible, impossible, it is all painstakingly cultivated in the family!" β
"How could it be!" Mama Chen said anxiously, "Those letters didn't reach us at all, and the emperor slapped the queen violently today, so he said this matter." Fortunately, the emperor is not really mediocre, and he listened to Niangniang's defense, and is now investigating. The queen mother suspected that some of us had been bought, so she asked the old slave to hurry out of the palace and make it clear to the prince face to face. β
Pingyang Hou walked back and forth in the hall for a few steps, weighed it again, thought about it, and said: "Niangniang is very worried, Ben Hou will let people investigate who rebelled." As for the queen, let her worship the Buddha with peace of mind, not only in the palace, but also outside people are estimated to have bought it. When a traitor is not found, you must not act on your own. β
"Yes, Master Hou!" Mama Chen responded and rushed back to the palace.
Because the queen was thinking about it behind closed doors, even the prince couldn't come over to say goodbye. On this day, after receiving the call of the queen mother, the prince threw down the beauty in his arms and went to visit the queen mother.
The emperor did not allow the crown prince to come, so the prince could not enter, and could only greet the queen at the palace gate.
Empress Chen asked the confidant palace maid beside her to tell the prince about Du Jiu, and the prince was stunned for a moment, and said, "Let the queen mother rest assured, Lone will find the spy as soon as possible." β
After the prince went back, it happened that his uncle Pingyang Hou came, and Pingyang Hou discussed with the prince, looking for traitors at this stage, and those who wanted to provoke the conflict between the prince and the king of Guangling could only be put aside for the time being.
But as soon as the Marquis of Pingyang was about to leave, he heard a rumor from the inner servant that Dou Huirong's father, that is, the head of the Dou family, Dou Xuande, asked to see him. Now he is coming over for the rumors between his second son and Du Jiu. (To be continued.) )
