Seeing Queen Ye's appearance, the emperor also felt a little uncomfortable.

However, he had already made up his mind and would never change it. Now is not the time to relent

The emperor didn't say a word, and looked at Queen Ye fixedly.

Empress Ye took a deep breath, as if she was afraid that she would regret it, and quickly said: "King Wei's leg is ill, and King Chu is in the prison again. The concubine implored the emperor to let Yuan Zhao recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors and restore the surname Murong. ”

"The concubine is willing to foster Yuan Zhao under her name, recognize him as his son-in-law, and ask the emperor to fulfill it."

When she said the last sentence, Queen Ye's voice trembled, and she was almost about to cry blood.

The emperor finally waited for Empress Ye to bow her head, her heart was very happy, but her face was calm and calm: "Empress, have you really thought about it?" If Yuan Zhao is raised in your name, he is a serious prince. In the future, he will become the most qualified prince to be the prince."

Of course, she had thought of this a long time ago.

But what can you think of?

Who will be the prince is a matter for the future. But now, if she doesn't bow her head and give in, the King of Chu will be almost over, and nothing is more important than the life of the King of Chu.

"The concubines are sincere, there is no falsehood, and I implore the emperor to fulfill the wishes of the concubines." Queen Ye repeated it again, and this time, her voice was much calmer and steady.

The emperor stretched his brows, and a smile appeared on his lips: "The queen is virtuous and generous, and is willing to let Yuan Zhao be fostered under her name, how can I not allow it." It's no small thing, though. There is no need to rush it in a moment. Think about what you can do to minimize the bad effects of this matter. ”

That hint of a smile was in Queen Ye's eyes. I just feel very glaring.

Empress Ye's throat was faintly sweet, she swallowed the sweetness hard, and pleaded humbly and sadly: "What the emperor said is true." The concubine still wants to ask the emperor for something, and hopes that the emperor will agree. ”

The emperor asked knowingly: "I don't know what the queen asks me for?" ”

Pretend to be confused!

Empress Ye hated her heart, but she didn't dare to show half a point on her face, and said with tears in her eyes: "Your Majesty, Ah Yun has been in the prison for a month. He had always been frail, but he had recently become ill. If you don't eat anymore, your body won't be able to eat at all. The concubine begged the emperor to let Ah Yun go! ”

"No! He did something wrong. This is the punishment he deserves. The emperor had a calm face and rejected Queen Ye: "King Wei is still lying on the bed, if I let him go early, how should I explain to King Wei?" ”

After a pause, he said, "But." What you say is not unreasonable. I will give the order. Let someone bring him food on time. The queen should be relieved! ”

The emperor had already determined that the mastermind behind the murder of King Wei was the King of Chu, and he didn't believe it no matter how much he explained.

Empress Ye was depressed, so she had to retreat to the second: "The concubine hasn't seen Ah Yun for a long time, and she wants to go to the prison to visit." Ask for the emperor's permission! ”

Previously, the emperor did not allow anyone to visit the king of Chu. Now that Empress Ye took the initiative to give in and made such a request, it was inconvenient for the emperor to refute the queen's face: "You are weak and can't move around." After a few days, when I feel better, I will visit the prison. ”

That's probably the only good news for today.

Empress Ye breathed a sigh of relief. Busy Shane.

The important things are all said, and the emperor will not stay longer. told Queen Ye to rest well, and then planned to leave.

Empress Ye suddenly opened her mouth and asked, "Yuan Zhao recognizes his ancestors and returns to his ancestors, what should his sister do when the time comes?" Is the emperor planning to take her into the palace and make her a concubine? ”

The emperor paused, and replied vaguely with some embarrassment: "I'll talk about this later." ”

After saying that, he brushed his sleeves and left.

Empress Ye looked at the figure of the emperor leaving in a hurry, and the corners of her lips hooked up a sarcastic sneer.

No matter how much the emperor likes the Ye family, he can't forcibly take away the courtier's wife and let the Ye family enter the palace as a concubine. She said that on purpose just now, just to poke the emperor's heart.

On the day when Chen Yuanzhao's identity is revealed, the Anguo Guild will become a laughing stock in the eyes of everyone, and the Ye family will also become the adulteress referred to by Qianfu. has such a biological mother, even if Chen Yuanzhao becomes a prince, he will be criticized because of his background.

Thinking of this, Queen Ye's cloudy mood dispersed a little

In order to visit the King of Chu in the prison as soon as possible, Queen Ye changed her depression and actively drank medicine to rest. After five days, I was finally able to get out of bed and walk around.

After getting the emperor's consent, Empress Ye finally got her wish and entered the prison.

The prison in the palace is much more spacious and clean than the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, and there is no peculiar smell, but the light is slightly dim.

I don't know if it was an intentional or unintentional arrangement, the king of Chu lived in the heavenly prison where the king of Qin lived that day.

There was no punishment, no torture, no visitation. The eunuch who delivered the food every day was a mute. The king of Chu stayed in the prison for more than a month, and was driven crazy by this quiet and dull.

The moment the King of Chu saw Queen Ye's face, he couldn't help himself with excitement, and shouted with red eyes: "Queen Mother, Queen Mother, you finally came to save me." I don't want to stay in this hellish place for a moment. I'm going to go crazy if I stay any longer! ”

Empress Ye looked at the emaciated and pale King of Chu, and shouted tremblingly: "Ah Yun" Before she finished speaking, the tears she was holding back had already fallen.

Facing the eyes of the King of Chu full of hope and joy, he couldn't tell the truth at all.

She couldn't save the King of Chu at all. It was not easy to ask the emperor for permission to come and visit

The King of Chu was immersed in ecstasy, and he didn't notice Queen Ye's strange expression, and shouted to the guards beside Queen Ye: "Why don't you open the lock quickly and let this king out." ”

The guards didn't move.

The king of Chu sensed that something was wrong, and he was inexplicably flustered in his heart, and said angrily: "Didn't you hear what this king said? Hurry up and open the door! ”

"Ah Yun, you can't go out." Empress Ye choked and comforted King Chu: "Your father's anger has not subsided. You bear with me for the time being, and in a few days, you will be able to come out. ”

A few more days?

From full of hope to great disappointment, such a gap made King Chu's face distort instantly, and his voice unconsciously sharpened: "I didn't do anything, why keep me locked up!" My father is old and mediocre."

Empress Ye's face turned pale when she heard this, and she interrupted King Chu in an extremely stern tone: "Ah Yun, what are you talking nonsense?" You are locked up in prison, not only for me every day, but also for your father. That's why I was specially allowed to come and visit. If you dare to talk nonsense again, I won't be the first to spare you. ”

If King Chu's words just now reach the ears of the emperor, don't think about going out of the prison again.

King Chu came back to his senses under Queen Ye's warning gaze, a cold sweat broke out on his back, and he immediately stopped talking. (To be continued......)
