"Well, Lan Xin, you are very reasonable. Originally, this crown princess was crazy all day long messing with that little comb, and your father and I were not very satisfied with it, but I didn't expect her to be a fake. This time, the mourning family just abolished her position as the crown princess, gave her a death, and in the future, she will choose a satisfactory family affair for your eldest brother. The queen said with a deep groan.

"I see that the eldest brother and that Meng Niannian have been married for more than a year, and their relationship is very good, but I'm afraid that the eldest brother will not agree to punish her." Princess Lan Xin said worriedly.

In fact, there was another worry in her heart, she was worried that when Su Junchu knew that Meng Niannian would be severely punished, he would not agree, and would even turn his face with their royal family.

In the short period of time since she and Su Junchu got married, since she overheard Su Junchu calling out the name Nian Nian in her dream that night, and happened to hear Su Junchu and Nian Nian's conversation behind the rockery, she has completely understood in her heart that this girl's status in her husband's mind is absolutely pivotal and cannot be shaken.

She also knew that with Su Junchu's resolute character, since he loved Meng Niannian so deeply in his heart, he would never watch her being punished and ignore it.

Su Junchu has been training on the battlefield all the year round, and he has just returned from the border battle, and he already has military power in his hands, if he wants to protect Meng Niannian, he is afraid that he will dare not obey the emperor's orders......

Princess Lan Xin thought like this, her heart was extremely bored, and her expression couldn't help but become in a trance.

"Lan Xin, are you worried that your eldest brother will try his best to defend that Meng Niannian after hearing about this? You can rest assured, this time I'm afraid that he won't be able to protect her even if he wants to. Meng Niannian committed the capital crime of pretending to be the crown princess and deceiving the king. Hum! I've been looking at her and that little comb for a long time, that is, the real Su Xiaorou you said, I'm full of upset, it turns out that they are really not good things! Two stinky girls who are bold and full of lies, this time the mourning family will never spare them! The queen said viciously.

The queen's heart had calmed down from the shock and anger she had heard the news at first, and she even secretly felt a hint of joy.

Because she really doesn't like Nian Nian and Su Xiaorou, but she has never had the right opportunity to teach them a lesson.

Now hearing that one of them is a fake princess who dared to pretend to be the daughter of the prime minister and made a heinous mistake, and the other is Zhen Su Xiaorou who dared to resist the decree and escape the marriage first and then conceal her identity and blend into the palace, the queen mother felt an inexplicable sense of relief in her heart.

Because of this, without her bothering, these two girls will definitely not end well.

Therefore, the queen's mood at this time is really good.

It was as if she was meditating hard to get rid of someone, but she didn't know how to speak, when suddenly that person offered to leave by herself, which was exactly what the queen wanted.

Thinking about it, the corners of the queen's mouth showed a slight sneer, and she turned around and ordered Wei Yu, who was guarding the side: "Wei Yu, you go to the side of the Jinluan Treasure Hall and wait for the emperor, and when the emperor retreats, ask him to move to the Mourning family quickly, and the Mourning family and Lan Xin have important matters to report to the emperor." ”

"Subordinates obey orders." Wei Yu agreed and took the order.

Emperor Li Shenglong had just come down from the early court, and he saw Wei Yu, the head of the guards of Xinhe Palace, standing quietly outside the Jinluan Palace.

He felt strange in his heart, because Wei Yu, as Princess Lanxin's personal guard, should generally be guarding the princess's harem at this time, rather than coming outside the front hall without permission.

Seeing the emperor Li Shenglong, Wei Yu immediately respectfully greeted him: "Weichen see the emperor, the queen mother and Princess Lanxin sent ministers to respectfully ask the emperor to move to Yuanhe Palace, and report to the emperor if there is something important." ”

Li Shenglong knew that the queen mother specially sent Wei Yu to invite him over at this time, and it must not be a trivial matter, so he agreed at the moment and followed Wei Yu to set up the Yuanhe Palace.

The queen mother and Princess Lanxin saw that the emperor Li Shenglong came over soon, and quickly got up to salute the emperor, and then the three of them sat down.

Li Shenglong saw that the faces of the queen and Princess Lan Xin were not very good-looking, and even the father-in-law and palace maids around him had all left, and he felt that what they were going to say to him might be very strict, so he asked: "Queen, Lan Xin, you are in a hurry to call me here at this time, is there something wrong?" ”

The queen mother and Princess Lan Xin glanced at each other, and the queen motioned for Princess Lan Xin to speak.

So, Princess Lanxin married the fake daughter of Su Mansion she knew into the palace to be the crown princess instead of Miss Zhen, but the real daughter Su Xiaorou mixed into the palace to be a palace maid in the Taihe Palace, and reported to the emperor Li Shenglong as it was.

The more Li Shenglong listened, the tighter his brows tightened, and as he listened to Princess Lan Xin's narration on the side, his face was also gloomy like a dark cloud before a storm.

As the son of heaven, what Li Shenglong values most is the loyalty and reliability of each courtier.

He never thought that an old minister he trusted and valued the most would use a fake daughter to marry into the palace and be his daughter-in-law under his nose, and the real daughter would pretend to be a palace maid to stay in the palace.

In other words, for more than a year after the prince's wedding, he Li Shenglong lived in the lies and deception of Prime Minister Su and was unaware.

And now that the truth of this fact has been exposed, how can he not be shocked and angry? How can he, the king of a country, be able to swallow this evil breath?

"Father, in fact, the current crown princess is a little girl adopted by Prime Minister Su's family before, and her real name is Meng Niannian. And Su Xiaorou, the real daughter of the Su family, is the little comb that fascinates the eldest and second emperor brothers. In the end, Princess Lan Xin ended her long story with such a sentence.

Li Shenglong was furious and took the case: "How can this be reasonable! He Su Pincheng dared to act so boldly, using a fake daughter to hide the eyes of me and the world, and sent him to the palace to become the crown princess, this is a big crime of deceiving the king, isn't he afraid that I will cut off his head? ”

"Father, please stop your anger. From the child's point of view, Prime Minister Su has always been loyal to my country, and he is Junchu's biological father, he must have done this for a reason, and I hope that my father can see that the child and Junchu are husband and wife, and don't be too harsh on Prime Minister Su's family. Seeing Li Shenglong's angry face, Princess Lanxin hurriedly persuaded and said.

"Lan Xin, I know that you have a deep affection for the King of Jinling, but what Su Pincheng did this time really makes me unbearable! If I don't kill him, how will the people of the world laugh at me, the king of a country? was tricked by a minister's lies, and he has always regarded him as the most loyal person. When Li Shenglong said this, he felt more and more angry, and added again: "This time, I will never spare him!" ”

"Father, if you really kill Prime Minister Su in a fit of rage, how will the child get along with Junchu in the future? What's more, Junchu went out to fight bloody battles at the border this time, and made great contributions to defending the territory of our dynasty. Prime Minister Su's other two sons are also important ministers of the court who guard the border fortress all the year round, if they kill Prime Minister Su, how can they not be chilled? I'm afraid it will cause people's hearts to be disheartened and the court to be in turmoil. Princess Lan Xin still didn't want her father to punish her husband Su Junchu's family too severely, so she persuaded her again.

At this time, the queen mother also said on the side: "Your Majesty, the concubines also think that what Lan Xin said is very reasonable. This time of pretending to be the crown princess, Prime Minister Su is of course guilty of the crime. It's just that Prime Minister Su has been an official in the court for many years, with a deep foundation, and his three sons all have heavy troops, so the strength of the Su family in our dynasty should not be underestimated. Therefore, the punishment for this matter is to be punished, but how to punish is to ask the emperor to think twice. ”

Li Shenglong didn't speak, how could he not know in his heart that the Su family's position in the entire Xiao Country was very important?

Therefore, for so many years, while he has been enveloping the Su family, he is also secretly restraining the expansion of Su Pincheng's power.

It is precisely because the Su family's power in the court is getting stronger and stronger that he thinks of Su Xiaorou, the daughter of the prince and the prime minister of Su, who is the daughter of the prime minister, and tries to use the marriage to strengthen his imperial power consolidation.

"Queen, Lan Xin, in your opinion, how to deal with this matter most appropriately?" Li Shenglong pondered for a long time and opened his mouth to ask for advice, he had gradually calmed down from the anger he had just heard about this.

"Father, the child is just giving you a reminder that Prime Minister Su must not be punished with death, but a living crime is inevitable. Father, you have always governed the country in a good way, rewards and punishments are clear, how to deal with it, your father has thought about it, you make your own decision, and it is inconvenient for the child and the queen mother to interject. Princess Lanxin said softly, and the queen also nodded slightly.

"Well, this time I can spare Su Pincheng immortal, but this person is too scheming, and he must not stay in the court to serve as an important minister. I had already intended to get rid of him, and this incident of impersonating the crown princess was a perfect opportunity to cut him off from the position of prime minister and depose him to a remote place to be a petty official. Li Shenglong said after a moment's thought.

"The emperor is shengming, what Su Pin came to commit is a capital crime of deceiving the king. In this way, the Su family will not only be grateful to the emperor for remembering the old love and not killing him, but also can remove Prime Minister Su's rights in the court without revealing a trace, which is really a double win. The queen mother praised again and again, and asked: "It's just that those two little girls who don't know the height of the sky, how does the emperor plan to deal with them?" ”

"They? I think that since Su Xiaorou likes to be lowly so much, she doesn't want to sit in the position of the noble princess, but would rather be a little palace maid who serves people, so let her continue. I will do what she wishes, so that she will always be a lowly palace maid, and she will never be able to turn over. Li Shenglong smiled coldly.
