Chapter 259: Ask for your mother's life and thoroughly investigate the truth
The group returned to King Qi's mansion, and the princess sent someone to take the lead in telling King Qi about the situation in Qingyun Temple, so as not to give Mo Ziyu a chance.
Mo Ziyu didn't plan to sue King Qi, so she had to say it herself.
Thinking that it was because of the consumption of a lot of physical strength by soaking in the hot springs during the day, Mo Ziyu's appetite was good at night, and after eating two bowls of rice, Lu Qiao said worriedly: "Girl, if you eat like this, aren't you afraid of gaining weight?"
"The little girl is annoying!" Mo Ziyu said with a smile, "But don't worry, even if your girl is really fat, the prince will like it too?"
Mo Ziyu said with a big grin, but he didn't expect it to fall into Liu Xu's ears, he strode into the room, and said with a smile: "Who said that? This king doesn't like fat girls!"
Mo Ziyu stuck out his tongue, and said half-angrily: "The prince doesn't like to hear this, the concubine doesn't like to hear this, this woman's beauty also has a shelf life, no one can be beautiful for a lifetime, slender for a lifetime, that day the concubine is not slim, it is not good-looking, and the prince no longer likes it?"
Liu Xu sat down, and then held his chin and looked at Mo Ziyu: "When did you look good?"
Mo Ziyu's cheeks bulged out angrily, and he snorted: "The prince can remember today's words, and there is no need to be a concubine anymore, the concubine is not good-looking, and she is not worthy of the prince's pen!"
"You look good or not, you are the king's woman, even if you are ugly, this Danqing has to continue to paint, how can this king dislike his own woman?" Liu Xu smiled, "Look at you now, this puffing up look is even worse!"
"Lord Wang, are you here specifically to ridicule the concubine?" Mo Ziyu raised his eyebrows, "The concubine body doesn't remember what offended the prince in the past two days!"
"I'm playing with you!" Liu Xu pulled Mo Ziyu to sit down, "I heard the princess say that you went to Qingyun Temple today to be in danger, but looking at your current appearance, I know that you are not frightened!"
Mo Ziyu gently pursed her lips and smiled: "Yes, it's just a few snakes, the prince forgot that the concubine still has the same ability?"
"That saved the life of this king, how can this king forget?" Liu Xu said, "All in all, it's okay." People are afraid of snakes, and snakes are afraid of people, and snakes cannot go to places with many people, so there must be something strange about this, why don't you tell this king?"
"The princess said that it was just a normal infestation of snakes, insects, rats and ants on the mountain, so that's the case, why should the prince dig deeper?" Mo Ziyu said lightly.
Liu Xu looked at Mo Ziyu's eyes, paused and said, "You still don't believe in this king?"
"Where did the prince go?" Mo Ziyu pursed his lips and smiled, "It's not that I don't believe in the prince, it's just that this matter can be handled by the concubine." ”
Liu Xu was silent for a moment and said, "Are you asking this king to believe you?"
"Yes. Mo Ziyu smiled lightly, grabbed Liu Xu's neck, paused and said, "Although the prince is hard, but this time the people who go up the mountain are the daughters of the boudoir, not as bold as the concubine, seeing so many snakes today, must have received a lot of fright, the prince is going to visit." ”
"This king has a sense of proportion. ”
Mo Ziyu hooked her lips and said, "The concubine knows the prince's intentions, which is enough." It's just that they all entered the door of King Qi's mansion, no matter whether they did anything wrong or not, they would eventually consume their youth in this palace. They are all women, and the concubines can actually understand them, who doesn't want to get some warmth? Since they are the people of the prince's mansion, the prince must give an explanation, either to give them freedom, or to leave them some thoughts, not to wither their youth in the palace day by day. ”
When Liu Xu heard this, he looked at Mo Ziyu's eyes fixedly, pinched her face, and said, "Do you know what you will say?"
"Nature knows. Mo Ziyu said, "Sometimes only women can understand women's suffering. ”
She was also an unfavored woman in her previous life, and she knew what it was like for a woman to wait in a long night.
Sometimes she hated the princess or the ninth lady, and sometimes she pitied them.
Who has not been an innocent and bright girl, and who has ever thought that one day there will be blood on their hands and a knife hidden in their smile?
From the beginning, her enemies were just Zhao Ling and Fu Yuan.
Liu Xu held Mo Ziyu in his arms, rested his chin on the top of her head, and said, "Liu'er, you are different from the women this king knows. ”
Liu Xu still listened to Mo Ziyu's words, and went to visit the third lady and the princess, and Lu Qiao was puzzled by this: "Why did the girl push the princess to the princess and the third lady?
"If he is just an ordinary man, I would ask him to be devoted to me, but he is not, he is the prince of Northern Xia. He was destined to maneuver among women, and the back house was also the front house, which was not determined by his will. Mo Ziyu smiled slightly, "Instead of making unrealistic fantasies from the beginning, it is better to recognize the reality from the beginning." ”
The fifth day of the ninth month.
Liu Xu found a key witness, and then entered the palace to be exempted from sainthood, asking Emperor Xuan to thoroughly investigate the death of his mother.
"What did you say?" Emperor Xuan's brows furrowed, and instead of raising his eyes, he looked at the music in front of him.
"There is something strange about the death of the mother, please ask my father to thoroughly investigate the truth of the death of the mother!" Liu Xu clenched his fists and repeated.
Emperor Xuan raised his eyes at this time, put down the cinnabar pen, glanced at his son on the ground, and narrowed his eyes slightly: "After so many years, why did you suddenly mention this matter?"
Because Erchen found the imperial doctor who treated his mother back then, he left his last words, proving that the reason why the mother concubine lingered on the sickbed and finally died was because someone was behind the ghost. Liu Xu said sonorously, "Erchen has secretly investigated for a long time, and he has also found some witnesses from the past, hoping that my father can give justice to my mother!
"Since twenty years have passed since this matter has passed, why do you have to mention it again and again?" Emperor Xuan's expression was a little cold, "What's more, twenty years have passed, people back then may not be able to clearly remember the events of that year, and the evidence of that year may not still exist, so why bother to cause an uproar in the court?" Don't you know that now that Northern Xia and Western Wei are at war, and now is the time when people's hearts are urgent, you want to distract them?"
"My father has made so many excuses, but I just don't want to thoroughly investigate the concubines of the year!" Liu Xu raised his eyes and looked at his father fearlessly, "Father still remembers that she was also the woman you put on the tip of your heart, and now that she is dead in an unknown way, doesn't my father want to ask for an understanding? In this case, why does my father often go to the lake to miss his mother?"
"Presumptuous!" Emperor Xuan scolded, "You have stiff wings, and you dare to talk to me in this tone!"
"Erchen just wants to seek justice!" Liu Xu looked at his father, "Although it has been twenty years, Erchen can't forget it, he can't forget the appearance of his mother before she died, and he can't forget the torture she suffered before she died!
"Bastard!" Emperor Xuan scolded, "What do I have to feel guilty about?
"Erchen has already found out, and he also knows who killed his mother!" Liu Xu said, "I just hope that my father can be a murderer in his eyes and give justice to my mother!"
Emperor Xuan looked coldly at Liu Xu below, and did not speak, but at this time, a voice came from outside the house: "Investigate, this matter must be thoroughly investigated! The dignified concubine, the death is not clear, shouldn't it be investigated? The mourning family suspected that there were other reasons for the death of the concubine, but due to various reasons, they did not investigate, and now King Qi personally proposed, Emperor, shouldn't you give him an explanation? It was his mother who died, and he lived without a mother for 20 years!"
This person is none other than the Queen Mother!
I only watched the Queen Mother slowly step into the imperial study, sat down on the side, glanced at Emperor Xuan, and said: "Since the matter has been said here, King Qi, you also said that you have found out the real murderer, so bring up your evidence together, and let the mourning family hear who this murderer is!"
Liu Xu nodded, took out the suicide note of the imperial doctor Zeng from his arms and handed it to the Queen Mother, Mama took it and handed it to the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother took a quick look, remembered that her hands trembled, and sneered: "Sure enough, it's that slut!"
Then the eunuch handed the suicide note to Emperor Xuan, who read it and didn't say anything.
At this time, the Queen Mother said again: "Your Majesty, since this matter has already involved Yun Guiren, let's invite her to talk!"
Emperor Xuan nodded and said lightly: "What the queen mother said is that you will invite Yun Guiren!"
Yun Guiren was not under house arrest in his bedroom at the moment, and when he saw the eunuch Xuan Xuan who was waiting behind Emperor Xuan, he was overjoyed, thinking that His Majesty had forgiven her, and hurriedly asked the palace maid to dress up for herself.
Although she is a lot older than before, she is still charming, and after carefully dressing up, she is still beautiful.
The eunuch who delivered the decree looked at the hopeful brilliance in her eyes, and couldn't help but sigh silently in his heart, but he didn't bother to puncture this dream.
Yun Guiren entered the imperial study, but he never thought that there were still the Queen Mother and King Qi in the imperial study, and his heart sank for a while, and he didn't know what happened, so he had to cheer up and deal with it.
"The concubines see Your Majesty, see the Queen Mother!"
It's just that Emperor Xuan, who was at the top, didn't call her flat for a long time, which made her heart sink even more.
At this time, the Queen Mother opened her mouth and said slowly: "Concubine Yun, someone has accused you of murdering King Qi's biological mother, is this true?"
Yun Guiren's face turned pale with fright, and she hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, she guessed in her heart that something bad must have happened, but she didn't guess that the past twenty years ago would actually be turned over!
