Chapter 58: Did I Hear Wrong?
However, Emperor Ming Yuan, who was furious, let Mu Rugong pass Yuanqing Ling to see him.
King Sun looked at Yuan Qingling with pity, he was really embarrassed, he asked her to face her father's anger for herself, and when she heard that the fifth child was recuperating in the palace, she still went to tell the fifth child and asked him to find a way to get the princess of Chu back.
Yuan Qing Ling entered the hall, and Emperor Ming Yuan did not raise his head, but only said lightly: "Kneel!" ”
Yuan Qing Ling knelt down according to his words, "See my father!" ”
In the hall, it was a mess, Mu Rugong was just cleaning up the inkstone that was smashed on the ground, playing the chapter, it seemed that the emperor was angry and smashed things at King Sun.
And on the ground, there was also a string of southern beads lying quietly, less than five feet below Yuan Qingling's knees.
Emperor Ming Yuan asked in a calm tone: "Just now Mu Ru came back to report, you said that the Nanzhu I rewarded you was lost, where was it lost?" ”
"Back to my father's words, I lost them in the Qiankun Palace." Yuan Qing Ling said.
"Then look at it, this string on the ground, is it the Nanzhu you lost in the Qiankun Palace?" Emperor Ming Yuan asked again.
Yuan Qingling glanced at it and said, "Yes." ”
"This string of Nanzhu was sent to me by the people around the queen, do you mean, did the queen's people steal your Nanzhu?" Emperor Ming Yuan's voice was already a little stunned.
However, it seems that she is still being given a chance.
Yuan Qingling shook his head slowly, "No, my daughter-in-law knows who took it." ”
"Oh?" Emperor Ming Yuan sneered, "Do you know who stole it?" ”
"I know, my daughter-in-law saw who took it." She insisted on using the word.
"Who is it?" Emperor Ming Yuan laughed angrily.
Yuan Qingling was silent for a moment, "Hey, Mama!" ”
Emperor Ming Yuan slapped the table angrily, "Ridiculous! ”
Mu Ru's father-in-law hurriedly said: "Princess, you can't talk nonsense, do you know that Mama Xi is a person from the emperor's side?" ”
Yuan Qingling said bitterly: "I know ......" The language is omitted, and there is a meaning that he does not dare to ask because he knows the identity of Mama Xi.
Emperor Ming Yuan stared at her coldly, these words were really ridiculous, and no one would believe them when they said it.
But the partial life is so absurd, it actually gave Emperor Ming Yuan a possible illusion.
Yuan Qingling would not be so stupid as to frame the people around the emperor.
Emperor Ming Yuan calmed down.
Aunt Bao said that Nanzhu was sent by Mama Xi, in other words, that sentence was also conveyed by Mama Xi, if what Yuan Qingling asked for was the future of the fifth child, why did he fake his hand to others?
She should send it in person to show her sincerity.
Yuan Qingling knelt all the time, and his face was thoroughly calm.
The problem, she lost it to Emperor Ming Yuan.
Is it that the person who should pass on the emperor came to ask, this is the matter of Emperor Ming Yuan.
Emperor Ming Yuan pondered again and again, and ordered: "Pass the decree, please invite the queen and Mama Xi to come to the imperial study." ”
The palace people took the order and left.
Before Mama Xi and the queen came, Concubine Xian came.
Concubine Xian couldn't sit still any longer, and learned that Yuan Qingling had given Nanzhu to the queen, and she knew that the situation was slowly changing now, and she couldn't stay in Qingyu Palace all the time to recuperate.
After recuperating for a long time, even the lowly daughter-in-law dared not to take her seriously.
She came out this time, not for Nanzhu's business, but to come out and shake it, so that people would know that she was not dead.
Concubine Xian sent ginseng tea, and after entering the palace, she saw Yuan Qingling kneeling in front of the palace, with a string of southern pearls on the imperial case, and then saw the emperor's face angry, Mu Ru's father-in-law did not say a word on the side, and her heart sank slightly.
She knew that the emperor was angry because Yuan Qingling sent Nanzhu to the queen, although she knew that this matter would implicate her son, but Yuan Qingling was punished, and she was still a little happy in her heart.
She raised a smile, "Your Majesty, the concubine knows that you have been busy with political affairs recently, and she is sad about the illness of the Emperor Taishang, so she boiled ginseng tea and brought it to you." ”
Emperor Ming Yuan said lightly: "Put it down." ”
Concubine Xian put down the ginseng tea, looked at Yuan Qingling, hesitated for a moment and said, "Princess Chu is also here?" The concubine will not hinder the emperor. ”
Emperor Ming Yuan said: "Since you are here, this matter has something to do with your son, so sit down." ”
Hearing that it was related to the King of Chu, Concubine Xian only wanted to eat Yuan Qingling alive.
She held back her anger, and the smile on the corner of her mouth remained unchanged, "Yes! ”
She moved over and sat down, her mind was spinning quickly, the emperor must have thought that Yuanqing Ling Bajie Empress was the meaning of the fifth child, it was impossible for the fifth child to do such a thing, now is the time for Mingzhe to protect himself, how could he be so aggressive?
It's not virtuous to marry a wife.
If the fifth child was exiled by the emperor again because of this, she would never let go of Yuan Qingling.
Why is there such a woman? If he had successfully married Chu Mingcui, how could he have today's situation?
The more Concubine Xian thought about it, the more annoyed she became, and she already had the hatred of frustrating Yuan Qing Ling into ashes in her heart.
Yuan Qingling knelt straight, how could he not feel the murderous eyes of Concubine Xian? If it weren't for this, Concubine Xian wouldn't like her.
"The Queen Mother has arrived!" Outside the hall, there is a eunuch Xuan.
Emperor Ming Yuan raised his hand and signaled, Mu Ru's father-in-law hurriedly went out, and saw that the queen came with Aunt Bao, and Mama Xi had just arrived, he stepped forward and bowed, "Niangniang, the emperor is invited!" ”
He looked at Mama Xi again, and Mama Xi looked calm and fearless.
Mu Rugong said: "Mama, please come in!" ”
The queen and Aunt Bao walked in front, and Mama Xi followed, and the three of them entered the imperial study together.
When Concubine Xian saw the queen coming, she hurriedly got up and saluted, "The concubine has seen the queen's mother." ”
The queen glanced at Concubine Xian lightly, "Concubine Xian is also here." ”
She walked straight over, glanced at Yuan Qingling with a faint look in her eyes, crossed over coldly, and blessed Emperor Mingyuan, "Your Majesty, the concubine is here." ”
"Sit down!" Emperor Ming Yuan raised his hand.
Xi Mama also stepped forward and said, "The old slave sees the emperor!" ”
Emperor Ming Yuan still has a lot of respect for Mama, Mama Xi has watched him grow up, and he has spoken for him in front of his father in the past, if today's incident is purely framed by Yuanqing Ling Pan, he will never be able to exempt her from responsibility.
"Excuse me!" Emperor Ming Yuan's language is warm and authentic.
Mama Xi stepped aside, her eyes shining directly, and she didn't look at Yuan Qingling.
Emperor Ming Yuan began to ask, "Xi Mama, did you send this Nanzhu to the queen's palace?" ”
Mama Xi didn't hesitate at all, and said, "Back to the emperor, it was sent by the old slave." ”
"Did Princess Chu ask you to send it?" Emperor Ming Yuan asked again.
Mama Xi nodded, "Yes!" ”
Emperor Ming Yuan's eyes swept coldly over Yuan Qingling's face, and he asked again, "Princess Chu asked you to send it over, what words can you convey?" ”
Aunt Bao's face changed on the spot.
Xi Mama said: "The princess said that she had two strings of southern pearls, but the queen did not, so she should pay a string of filial piety to the queen." ”
"What else?"
Mama Xi shook her head, "Nothing else." ”
When Father-in-law Mu Ru heard this, he said: "Mama thinks about it carefully, do you still have an explanation, please convey the queen's kind words in front of the emperor for the king of Chu?" ”
Mama Xi shook her head, "I didn't say it." ”
Emperor Ming Yuan's expression was slightly cold, "Empress? ”
Queen Chu was stunned and said, "I didn't mention asking the concubines to speak for the king of Chu!" ”
Emperor Ming Yuan laughed coldly, "Really? I guess I misheard, didn't I, Jade? ”
Aunt Bao knelt down with a puff, her face turned pale, and she trembled a few times and said, "Back to the emperor, slave and maid...... The slave and maid Xu misheard. ”
