Chapter 222: Extinguishing the Mouth
Although Concubine Yu vigorously denied it in front of King Yu, the next development of things was out of her control.
The court attaches great importance to the matter of five food scatters, not to mention that this time there are officials involved, Dali Temple and the criminal department investigated the matter together, but in just three days, dozens of people were arrested, and all the five food scatters hoarded by the Yu Concubine and the Zhao family were seized and destroyed.
Zhao Yuesan was imprisoned, and the Zhao family was restless.
And Concubine Yu's side is not very peaceful, a number of witnesses and physical evidence pointed out that this matter is related to her, and she has no way to continue to shirk it.
King Yu was furious about this matter, and directly ordered someone to bring Concubine Yu over for interrogation.
"Slut, after that, you still refuse to tell the truth?" King Yu was furious.
Concubine Yu knelt on the ground and made a final struggle, and said pitifully: "Your Highness, someone must have deliberately framed this matter and it really has nothing to do with the concubine's body!" ”
"Your brother has already recruited everything, and you still can't deny it?" King Yu shouted angrily, this pillow man he has been spoiled for several years, he didn't expect such an unbearable appearance, it is really annoying!
Princess Yu sighed: "I know why you want to do these things, you want to let your mother's family live a noble and decent life, but you only think about your mother's family in your heart, have you ever thought about the world?" If your affair is revealed, what will happen to the Son? ”
Concubine Yu's face turned white all of a sudden, and she hurriedly knelt down and crawled in front of King Yu: "Your Highness, this matter has nothing to do with the prince, the prince is your son, the tiger poison does not eat the child, you must be able to do anything to him!" ”
King Yu pushed Concubine Yu away: "The son of the world has a mother like you, which is his sorrow!" Do you know that it is a capital crime for you to violate the ban of the heavens, sell competing goods, and make friends with ministers? ”
Concubine Yu swallowed her saliva, knowing that at this point, no matter what she said, King Yu would not believe herself, but she still had a hole card, that is, the eldest princess, the eldest princess was also implicated in this matter, maybe the eldest princess had a way to save her.
"Concubine...... Knowing that his sins are unforgivable, the concubine has nothing to say, but the prince is young and innocent, please treat him well! Concubine Yu wiped her tears and said.
"He is the son of this king, and this king will naturally not treat him badly!" King Yu said coldly, "You have made a heinous mistake, and this king can't protect you, this king will personally send you to Dali Temple and hand it over to the court!" ”
At this time, the son rushed out, hugged his mother, knelt in front of his father and grandmother and cried: "Father, I beg you, don't send your mother away, my son begs you, my son can't live without his mother!" ”
Concubine Yu also hugged her child tightly: "Son, my mother will not be able to take good care of you by your side in the future, you have to take good care, be obedient, and study hard, you know?" ”
"No, I want my mother to accompany me, I don't want my mother to leave!" Shizi cried breathlessly.
If he made some innocuous mistakes on weekdays, King Yu would have turned one eye open and closed one eye in the face of the prince, but now that this matter has reached the ears of His Majesty, if he is protective, he is afraid that he will even have to ride into it.
"From today onwards, you will not be the mother of the son!" King Yu said coldly, "From today on, the prince will be handed over to Princess Yu to take care of, Princess Yu is knowledgeable and reasonable, and she is more measured than you, and she is more able to take care of the prince!" ”
Concubine Yu's heart is dripping blood, how can the son she worked so hard to give birth to be called someone else's mother, especially that woman, she has hated and despised women for more than ten years!
But after becoming a king and defeating the king, she now has no other way to keep her son, she now regrets it very much, she shouldn't have been blinded by the huge profits of Wushisan, and put herself in and the Zhao family!
At this time, Princess Yu also rushed over, in the face of such a big event, she knew that it was better to talk less, so she didn't make any comments on the matter of this jade concubine, but the old princess handed over the prince to him to take care of, so she had to do her best, seeing the prince crying miserably, she was also distressed, and said to the prince: "There is a troupe in the back street, singing your favorite havoc in the heavenly palace, let's go and see it, okay?" ”
"I don't!" Shizi hugged his mother to death, "I don't want to look at it, I want my mother!" ”
Seeing this, the old princess said to the two grandmothers beside her: "Take the son down, don't make the child cry and break his body!" ”
The two grandmothers stepped forward to take the son away, but the son hugged his mother tightly, and the jade concubine was reluctant, so she protected the child to death, and the mother and son cried together.
"If you knew today, why bother?" The old princess shouted, "Who are you going to show this crying and crying appearance, take the prince away!" ”
The two grandmothers made great efforts to snatch the child out of the arms of the jade concubine and handed it over to Princess Yu, who left in a hurry with the child in her arms.
The Jade Concubine collapsed to the ground, calling the child's name in her mouth.
King Yu said coldly: "If you were willing to think about the child for half a point, you wouldn't end up today!" This king regrets that he shouldn't have indulged you too much, let you break into such a catastrophe, and almost implicated the palace! ”
Concubine Yu kowtowed to King Yu: "The concubine is ashamed of the love of the prince over the years, the concubine is sorry for the prince, but the concubine also has the helplessness of the concubine, my mother's family raised me, they have difficulties, I can't stand by and watch." ”
"What kind of family background do you have, what kind of life you live." The old princess said coldly, "The Zhao family is not a wealthy family, but they want to live a luxurious life, so vain and unsatisfied, who can blame it?" Haven't the help of Ninghou Mansion and Princess Yu given to the Zhao family over the years enough? It can only be said that your own heart is not enough to swallow the elephant, and you are self-inflicted! King Yu, don't talk nonsense with her anymore, take it to Dali Temple and hand it over to the court. ”
After all, it was more than ten years of husband and wife, King Yu couldn't bear to look at the jade concubine's so sad appearance, turned his head and sighed, and then was ruthless, shouting: "Come on, take her down and escort her to Dali Temple!" ”
At the same time, after hearing that the Zhao family and Concubine Yu had accidents one after another, Chu Yuezi also panicked, especially when she knew that the initiator of this matter was the county lord of Minzhi. She regretted a little, she provoked the county lord of Minzhi when she and the Zhao family were not strong enough, she targeted the Zhao family and the jade concubine completely to take revenge on herself, it turned out that she had harmed her relatives!
She couldn't help crying, what face would she have to see her mother under the Yellow Spring in the future!
Hearing that the eldest princess was back, she didn't care about her manners, and went to beg the eldest princess in person, hoping that the eldest princess could help her relatives and save her.
The eldest princess's attitude was very indifferent: "The thing we cooperated with at the beginning was to talk, if their business is exposed, then I will completely cut off from them, and this matter has nothing to do with me at all." If I help at this time, won't I tell the world that I am involved in this matter? The father and the emperor personally watched this matter, and the two princes supervised it together, what ability can I have to rescue people? ”
"However, at the moment, my aunt and uncle are still locked up in the prison, what if they are tortured and tell the matter of cooperating with the eldest princess, we should find a way to rescue them before that." Chu Yuezi hurriedly said, "If this matter is pursued, they will die, Yuezi doesn't ask for anything else, I just hope that they can save a life, the eldest princess is powerful, and the clouds and rain are overturned, there must be a way to save them, right?" ”
The eldest princess's eyes narrowed, but she was reminded.
She said lightly: "You get up first, I'll figure out a way to do this." ”
"Princess Xie."
"But I really didn't expect Minzhi to dare to go against me!" The eldest princess's expression became gloomy, "Cut off my belongings and destroy my relationship network for many years, she is really a good cousin!" ”
Chu Yuezi swallowed her saliva: "This revenge, I must avenge it!" ”
"yes, don't you have to report it?" The eldest princess snorted coldly.
Then the eldest princess left Xianyunguan and came to the prison where the jade concubine was imprisoned.
Seeing the eldest princess coming, Concubine Yu seemed to have seen a life-saving straw, she hurriedly stepped forward, knelt on the ground and said, "Help me, eldest princess, you must save me!" ”
"You haven't said anything, have you?" The eldest princess asked softly.
"Nope!" Concubine Yu shook her head, "I didn't say anything, I won't betray the eldest princess, please ask the eldest princess to save me!" ”
"Good." The eldest princess took out a bottle from her loose robe, handed it to the jade concubine, and said softly, "This is the crane top red, see the blood seal the throat, soon, you won't have any pain." ”
Concubine Yu's face turned pale with fright, and she hurriedly climbed a few steps back: "What do you mean, eldest princess?" What do you want to do? ”
"I only believe in the dead, and only when you die can this matter end from you." The eldest princess said lightly, "I remember that you also have a son, right?" King Yu's only son, the current son, and the future prince, if he didn't enjoy the glory and wealth, he would die at a young age, isn't it a pity? ”
Concubine Yu's face turned even paler, and her expression became crazy: "What do you mean! What do you want to do! ”
"If you're a smart mother, you should know how to do it." The eldest princess smiled lightly, "You are going to die anyway, you might as well die to protect your son, are you right?" ”
"Don't touch my son...... Please don't touch my son, I will listen to you whatever you say!" Concubine Yu kowtowed on the ground, begging her to pick up the bottle on the ground tremblingly, "I know what to do, don't hurt my son!" ”
The eldest princess hooked the corners of her mouth with satisfaction: "You are such a great mother, I am going to cry for you." ”
