Chapter 156: Lifting a stone and shooting himself in the foot

Seeing that the emperor was about to get angry, Concubine Hui hurriedly knelt on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "The emperor is angry, the concubine didn't mean to offend the princess, and the concubine just told the truth." ”

"Good to tell the truth."

The emperor looked at Concubine Hui angrily and said in a deep voice: "When I passed by, I saw you crying alone, thinking that you were wrong because of what happened before, so I thought of coming in to see you." ”

"Unexpectedly, you are afraid that the world will not be chaotic, and you will not repent at all, which really disappoints me!"

Hearing the emperor's words, Concubine Hui was shocked, why did things go differently than she imagined?

"Your Majesty, the concubines are not afraid that the world will not be chaotic, nor are they unrepentant." Concubine Hui knelt on the ground and said with tears in her eyes: "Since the emperor confined the concubines to the palace, the concubines have always been in remorse, and the concubines have already known their mistakes. ”

"As for the princess's affairs, the concubines are also worried that the princess has been pampered since she was a child, and she is afraid that the princess will do something wrong and shame the royal family, so she will truthfully report it to the emperor."

The more Concubine Hui said, the more ugly the emperor's face became, firstly because he felt that Concubine Hui was unrepentant, and secondly because what Fengyu had done embarrassed him.

"Enough!" The emperor scolded, looking at Concubine Hui with a gloomy face, "You were grounded in the palace, how did you know about the princess's bedroom last night?" ”

Concubine Hui was stunned for a moment, and said with an embarrassed face: "This ......"

Seeing Concubine Hui's expression, the emperor snorted coldly and said a little mockingly: "Isn't it spreading in the palace again?" ”

Concubine Hui's face froze suddenly, and in the face of the emperor's questioning, she didn't know how to answer for a while.

On the other hand, after the queen learned that Concubine Hui had complained to the emperor, she immediately sent someone to inform Fengyu, and then rushed to Concubine Hui's bedroom with the palace maids and eunuchs.

When the queen arrived, Concubine Hui had already told the emperor everything about it, but at the moment, when facing the emperor's questioning, she was trying to think about how to get things done.

"The Queen Mother has arrived."

When Concubine Hui heard that the queen was coming, her face suddenly changed, and after the queen walked in, she reluctantly saluted the queen and said: "The concubine meets the queen, and the queen is auspicious." ”

Unexpectedly, the queen didn't look down on Concubine Hui at all, so she ignored her directly, and saluted the emperor: "The concubine has seen the emperor." ”

"The queen doesn't have to be polite." The emperor stretched out his hand to help the queen, and then asked, "Why did the queen suddenly come here today?" ”

After the queen got up, she said to the emperor: "The concubine didn't dare to deceive the emperor, the concubine heard that Concubine Hui was telling the emperor about the princess's stay in the palace last night, and she was afraid that the emperor would misunderstand, so she came to explain the truth to the emperor." ”

"The queen, what the concubines said to the emperor is all true, why misunderstand?" Concubine Hui looked at the queen and said sharply.

Glancing at Concubine Hui coldly, the queen said: "The princess left Guan Yunrui in the palace last night, and the palace has long known about it, but I don't know how Concubine Hui explained it to the emperor?" ”

"Do you know that Qiluo stayed in Shangguan Yunrui?" The emperor looked at the queen and asked, his eyes were slightly serious.

"Your Majesty, the concubines know about this matter."

As soon as she heard the queen's words, Concubine Hui suddenly became anxious, and said eagerly: "Your Majesty, the relationship between the queen and the princess has always been very good, so she will help the princess lie, and I hope the emperor will not be deceived." ”

The queen frowned slightly, looked at the emperor, and said in an affirmative tone: "Your Majesty, the concubines dare to guarantee that the princess knew about the princess's dormitory last night." ”

Concubine Hui looked at the queen and saw that although she spoke in a positive tone, her hands were clenched tightly, knowing that she was lying.

"If the queen really knows about the princess's stay in Shangguan Yunrui, she might as well tell the emperor about the cause and effect of the matter, so that the emperor can see who is lying."

"You ......," the queen was so angry that she couldn't speak.

Concubine Hui straightened her waist and looked at the queen, and when she saw her speechless, she couldn't help but rejoice, it seemed that she had guessed correctly, and the queen didn't know about Shangguan Yunrui's stay in Fengyu's dormitory.

At this time, the emperor also saw the clue, he looked at the queen and said: "Queen, this matter is related to the reputation of the princess, you can't lie because you have a good relationship with the princess, you tell the truth." ”

"Your Majesty, the concubines ......" The queen frowned slightly, and her face became a little ugly.

"What the Queen Mother said is true."

Feng Yu's voice sounded at the door, and the three of them looked over at the same time, Feng Yu was walking over with a group of palace maids and eunuchs.

"Sons and daughters see their fathers and queens, and I wish my father, queen and queen mothers are healthy."

After Feng Yu saluted and straightened up, she said to the emperor: "Father, the son is here to explain to his father that the son stayed in Shangguan Yunrui last night. ”

The emperor sat upright and looked at a few people, and finally fixed his eyes on Feng Yu, "Okay, tell me what happened last night?" ”

"Father, yesterday Shangguan Yunrui entered the palace to play with his sons, and when he was about to leave the palace, the sky thundered and it was pouring rain, and the sons were worried that Shangguan Yunrui would be in danger of leaving the palace in the rain, so he left him in the palace."

"But this Shangguan Yunrui has been afraid of thunder since he was a child, and even more so after becoming stupid. Shangguan Yunrui was a man, and Erchen knew that he shouldn't be alone with him, so he asked Qin'er to call other people in the palace and accompany Shangguan Yunrui until the thunderstorm stopped. ”

"And because the night was too dark, Erchen asked the eunuch in the palace to take Shangguan Yunrui to live in the backyard wing, worried that there would be thunder at night to scare Shangguan Yunrui, and Erchen also specially arranged for someone to guard the door of his room."

After finishing speaking, Feng Yu glanced at the emperor, "If the father doesn't believe it, you can ask the people in the palace." ”

The emperor looked at the palace maid and eunuch kneeling on the ground, and said in a deep voice: "What the princess said is true?" ”

"Back to the emperor, what the princess said is true, and the slaves (slaves) dare not lie."

Seeing that the situation suddenly fell to Fengyu's side, Concubine Hui immediately became nervous, and was about to speak, but was preempted by the queen.

The queen also saw that Concubine Hui still wanted to make a mistake, so she snatched her words and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the princess has always been kind-hearted, and Shangguan Yunrui has been bullied everywhere since she was stupid, and the princess is also thinking about him." ”

"There is one thing that the emperor may not know, the day before yesterday, the concubine and the princess were still discussing the choice of a relative for Shangguan Yunrui."

When the emperor heard this, his thoughts were really taken away, and he looked at the queen and Fengyu and said, "I really don't know about this matter." ”

Taking a step forward, Feng Yu said with a smile: "Father, after the death of the King of Dian, Shangguan Yunrui suffered injustice because of his stupidity, and there was no one around him who thought about him, so his son thought about finding a family for him." ”

"If this matter is done, after getting married, Shangguan Yunrui and his wife will move out of the Dian Palace, and they will not have to be restricted everywhere."

"Therefore, the sons and daughters will look for the queen mother, and want to ask the queen mother to come forward and find a candidate for Shangguan Yunrui."

Fengyu's words really spoke to the emperor's heart, and when the King of Dian was alive, he befriended the emperor. After the death of the King of Dian, because of the busy state affairs, the emperor did not pay too much attention to the affairs of the Dian Palace.

Thinking about it this way, let Shangguan Yunrui be bullied for many years, and he really can't stand the dead King of Dian.

"Worthy of being my daughter." The emperor looked at Feng Yu and said with a doting face: "Qiluo, well done." ”

Feng Yu looked at the emperor with a smile on her face and said, "It's good that the father doesn't blame the son and the minister for making his own decisions." ”

The emperor got up with a smile and walked to Feng Yu, looked at her and said, "You are so hearted, how can my father blame you." ”

As he spoke, the emperor looked at the queen and said, "I haven't been to the queen's palace for a long time, it's rare to get together today, so let's go over together." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Seeing this, Concubine Hui, who was kneeling on the ground, hurriedly shouted: "Your Majesty, the concubine ......"

"You just stay here and reflect." The emperor interrupted Concubine Hui's words, and then left with Fengyu and the queen without looking back.

After the emperor left, Concubine Hui stood up from the ground and limped back to the house, just when she bumped into the oncoming Fenglin.

When Fenglin heard that the emperor was coming, he wanted to come out and ask An Bo for favor, but he remembered Concubine Hui's previous explanation, so he hid in the house and didn't come out.

Later, as soon as I heard that the queen was coming, followed by Fengyu, I guessed that Concubine Hui might not have good fruit to eat, so I hurriedly got up and hurried.

Seeing Concubine Hui's ugly face, Feng Lin knew that she must have been scolded by the emperor, so he hurriedly comforted: "Mother doesn't have to be too sad, the anger in my father's heart has not dissipated at this time, and it is inevitable that he will be harsh with his mother." ”

Originally, Concubine Hui was aggrieved in her heart, and she had nowhere to spread the fire in her belly, but at this moment, when she saw Fenglin Vino's appearance, she was even more angry.

"Why are you so discouraged? If you fight for some anger, you are the one who is the crown prince now, will the mother concubine still be reduced to this? ”

The scolded Fenglin lowered his head slightly, and whispered: "Mother, I can't be blamed for this, it's not my fault." ”

"I don't blame you, I blame me? Is it my fault?! Concubine Hui said angrily, glaring at Feng Lin with hatred, "I know what kind of virtue I am, and I don't want to be better, but I know that I will cause trouble everywhere, and when I get to the crown prince position on my lips, I was taken away by Feng Yi." ”

"Tell me about you, even if you do one thing, you won't let your father be so disappointed in you and be so cruel to us."

Feng Lin knew that he was wrong, so he didn't dare to argue with Concubine Hui anymore, so he could only bow his head and be silent.

But the more Concubine Hui looked at Fenglin's aggrieved appearance at this time, the more angry she became, so she could only wave her hand impatiently, "Okay, where to go, don't dangle in front of my eyes, I'll be angry when I see you." ”

Knowing that Concubine Hui was angry, Fenglin didn't want to argue with her, so he bowed his head and said, "Erchen retires." ”

Sitting on the chair to calm down, the more Concubine Hui thought about it, the more she felt that she couldn't go on like this, otherwise she would never turn over.

After thinking about it, Concubine Hui came to the desk and wrote a letter to the second lady of the Dian Palace, in which she said that Shangguan Yunrui entered the palace and complained bitterly in front of the queen and the princess about all kinds of things in the Dian Palace, saying that the second lady and her brother Shangguan Yunqian treated him harshly.

Concubine Hui looked at the written letter and sneered, Fengyu, aren't you going to help Shangguan Yunrui? I'd like to see how you help him through this time!
