Chapter 625: The Confrontation Between the Emperor and the Queen (Second Update)
Not long after, in the Huagai Palace, I saw that Yue'er, who had kissed Feng Sheng in Qingzhou, was kneeling in the spacious hall, it was really Yuan Xi's second daughter, Princess Anle Yuan Yue.
And Yuan Xi and Yuan Yue's mother concubine Li Xiu is sitting on the main seat, Li Xiu is the former Zhen Mi's personal maid Hexiang, and she is also the second woman he has come to this world.
Yuan Xi is a very nostalgic person, coupled with Li Xiu's soft personality, not fighting or grabbing, especially knowing that he is grateful to Zhen Mi, he is very satisfied, so he has now been promoted to concubine.
After learning the ins and outs of the matter from Li Xiu, Yuan Xi said with a gloomy face: "Yue'er, my father has always thought that you are the most well-behaved, but I didn't expect you to do such an immoral thing."
"Father, my son and Brother Sheng really love each other" Yuan Yue heard this, and immediately said with teary eyes.
Yuan Xi shook his head and sighed: "Yue'er, my father once said that you sisters, as long as you like them, your father doesn't care about their origins at all, let alone a wood carving shop shopkeeper, even in ordinary people, my father can turn him into a noble person."
"But! Father's meaning, will never say that you can do anything wrong, as my daughter, the princess of the Daxi royal family, you are pregnant before marriage, do you know that whether it is from the ancient system, or the family rules of my royal family, it is absolutely not allowed"
"Father" Yuan Yue's face immediately showed worry, she was not worried about herself, but the child in her belly, as her cousin said, once her father gave the order, there would be no turnaround.
"Father, Erchen thinks that this matter can be remedied, at present, only my sister's personal maid, Imperial Doctor Zhang, Erchen, and my aunt know about this matter, as long as my sister gets married immediately, no one will know that he is unmarried and pregnant" Yuan on the side immediately pleaded and suggested.
Yuan Xi frowned, looked at Li Xiu, who was sad with tears in his eyes, and said softly: "Xiu'er, what do you think about this matter?"
Li Xiu glanced at Yuan Yue fiercely, he was originally just a personal maid of Zhen Mi, and he was lucky to follow Yuan Xi, all the way from an ordinary concubine to today's concubine, although it looks noble, but in fact, the foundation is very thin, although their Li family is currently worry-free, but the uncle with the highest official position in the family is only engaged in the work of the governor yamen, compared to the other concubines in the palace, it is too far behind, so she hopes that Yuan Yue can marry a nobleman, but she didn't expect such a thing to happen.
"Yue'er, do you have to give birth to this child?" Li Xiu asked seriously again.
After Yuan Yue bit her lip lightly, she nodded heavily, and said guiltily: "Queen Mother, Erchen has disappointed you."
When Li Xiu heard this, he closed his eyes sadly, then got up and knelt down to Yuan Xi, crying: "Your Majesty, it is the concubine who is not strict in discipline, please let Your Majesty open the net."
After all, it was her own daughter, and she really couldn't bear to die twice.
Yuan Xi shook his head, and just as he was about to help Li Xiu up, suddenly a huge communication sound sounded outside.
"Queen Mother, Arrived"
"What" Li Xiu, Yuan, and Yuan Yue looked shocked at the same time.
Even Yuan Xi's face sank, and the queen mother knew about it.
Soon, the Liu family, whose hair was much whiter and exuded nobility and majesty, was dressed in a phoenix robe and a golden crown, and walked in step by step with a pale face under the support of the female official.
"Meet the Queen Mother," Yuan Xi and Li Xiu said.
"Meet the imperial grandmother" Yuan and Yuan Yue also immediately said respectfully, Yuan Yue's face was obviously uneasy, if there is anything in the world that can influence Yuan Xi's decision, it is only the queen mother of Daxi, the imperial grandmother of the kings and princesses.
After Liu came in, he glanced at Yuan Yue, who was kneeling on the ground, and said coldly: "Yue'er, grandmother heard that you are pregnant."
"Queen Mother, this matter" Yuan Xi immediately prepared to laugh and play a round.
"Emperor" Liu's face sank, and said: "If the mourning family doesn't come today, your majesty, who is the first loving father in the world to your daughter, are you going to hide it completely like this?"
Yuan Xi smiled bitterly and said, "Queen Mother, don't be angry, I was also teaching Yue'er a lesson just now."
"Is a lesson enough? As a princess of the royal family, it is a great shame to be pregnant before marriage, but no one wants my royal princess" Liu said angrily.
In this era, widows and widows and unmarried women who are pregnant will be regarded as immoral or unchaste by their families and neighbors, and the light ones will be humiliated and humiliated, and the worst ones will be investigated for the crime of adultery.
And Yuan Xi came through time, he had seen a lot in his previous life, and he had always loved his daughter, so he could accept such a thing, but the Liu family was different, in her opinion, such a thing, even if it was an ordinary person, it could not be tolerated, let alone in the royal family.
"Imperial grandmother, you misunderstood, my sister is not unmarried and pregnant, she has a husband, her husband is a talent, and he has studied a lot of new things" Seeing this scene, Yuan immediately looked at Liu and said coquettishly.
"The shopkeeper of a wood carving shop can also be regarded as a talent," Liu Shi immediately said coldly.
Hearing this, Yuan was shocked, Li Xiu's face sank, and a trace of coldness flashed in her eyes, in addition to Your Majesty, Yuan, and her, only her two personal female officials in the palace knew about it, and it seemed that someone was going to trouble her.
It's okay to provoke her, but they dare to touch her daughter, do they really think that they are sick tigers and bully them at will?
"Grandmother" Yuan Yue immediately cried, knew that she couldn't hide it, and kowtowed heavily: "Everything is Yue'er's fault, beg grandmother to open the net"
Hearing this, Liu was extremely disappointed and said: "Yue'er, in addition to your son, grandmother loves you the most, your father is the only one in the world, and I don't need you princesses to marry, no matter who you like, as long as you open your mouth, grandmother can promise you, but you are so sloppy, the pearl is secretly knotted, do you still have a grandmother in your heart"
Yuan Yue was startled, and when she looked up, her forehead was already bleeding, and she cried: "Imperial grandmother, Yue'er is wrong"
"Queen Mother, everything is because the concubines are not strictly disciplined, and the concubines are willing to bear all the responsibilities" Li Xiu saw this scene and knelt down in distress.
"Of course you are responsible, but the mourning family will let you go for the time being, Yue'er, you can't have this child, it is already a shame to be pregnant before marriage, if the world knows that the father of this child is still the shopkeeper of a wooden carving hall, then the dignity of my royal family will be lost" Liu said coldly.
"Grandmother" Yuan Yue's face turned pale in an instant, and then she cried to Yuan Xi: "Father"
When the "Queen Mother" Yuan Xi wanted to say something again, Liu waved his hand and said solemnly: "Xi'er, the mourning family has never objected to your opinion, but if this matter is not asked clearly, then other princesses will follow suit in the future, where is the majesty of the royal family, and where is the reputation of your first emperor through the ages."
Yuan Xi showed a wry smile, he didn't care about the emperor of the ages, as long as he was in power, who would dare to say more, and he knew that he had a long life, but now he really had a feeling that it was difficult for a clean official to cut off family affairs, especially when it was mixed with his mother, involving the feudal system and the rules of the royal family, so he couldn't help but shy away from it.
"Take Princess Anle away" Seeing that Yuan Xi stopped talking, Liu immediately ordered.
"No!" The two elderly female officials immediately walked towards Yuan Yue with expressionless faces.
Yuan Yue gritted his teeth, his eyes revealed despair, Yuan Xi saw this scene, no matter what, this is also his own daughter, it is really the so-called son does not teach, and the father is also at fault.
As soon as the momentum was lightly released, the two female officers were instantly full of fear, and then suddenly knelt heavily on the ground, unable to move.
"Emperor" Liu's eyes froze.
Yuan Xi took a few steps forward, pulled Yuan Yue, who was so moved that he couldn't stop crying, and turned his head and said solemnly: "Queen Mother, I will definitely give you an explanation for this matter."
Because of Yuan Yue, Yuan Xi faced his mother head-on for the first time since he came to this world.
The confrontation between the emperor and the queen made everyone present tremble, even though Yuan bowed his head at this time.
The hall fell silent for an instant, and it seemed that even the sound of a needle falling could be heard.
At this time, a shocked shout suddenly came from outside, causing everyone in the hall to look over.
Yuan Xi frowned, someone dared to invade Daming Palace.
