Hearing that Lu Zhen, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, opposed the release of Hua Qiao, Hu Yanjin was anxious.

The emperor couldn't help but be a little in a dilemma, Lu Shangshu's statement was not unreasonable, punishing Hua Qiao was because she spoke falsely and violated the law of the Ming Dynasty to dissect the corpse.

Finding out the truth and rehabilitating Sun Guifei does not mean that Hua Qiao's actions can be let go by the Ministry of Rites and the Zongren Mansion.

Can...... If it weren't for the autopsy, it would be impossible to see the reed rod in the stomach, and it would be impossible to speculate that even if the stomach was poisonous, the second princess still didn't die of poisoning.

The emperor was in a hurry to return to the harem, and he didn't want to dwell on this matter, so he said:

"The autopsy of the eldest princess Baoying is the key to finding out the real cause of the princess's death and allowing the concubine to clear her grievances, which can be regarded as meritorious. Offsetting the merits...... I punished her in the Buddhist hall in the palace and knelt incense for the second princess for seven days to thank her for the crime of dissecting the corpse. ”

The emperor thought to himself, kneeling in the palace, no one watched, and it would be a few days so-so.

But Lu Shangshu said conclusively: "The eldest princess has violated the law of the country, not a family rule, and it is okay to kneel, but she must continue to kneel in the front hall of the Taimiao Temple for seven days to serve the public!" ”

"Lord Lu, the eldest princess is a daughter's body, men have been kneeling for seven days, all of them have broken knees and legs, not to mention that she is a weak woman. Your Majesty, this penalty is too heavy, please think twice. Hu Yanjin hurriedly spoke to stop him.

"When she disemboweled, why didn't she want to think that she was a woman? Since Emperor Taizu, the Ming Dynasty has requirements for women's words and deeds, if Emperor Taizu has a spirit in the sky and knows that among his descendants, there is such a deviant woman, I am afraid that even Taimiao will not allow her to step into half a step. ”

From the very beginning, Lu Zhen opposed Hua Qiao's involvement, let alone disembowelment, which he considered to be an extremely vicious thing.

Once, Lu Zhen found out that his daughter took a piece of snack from the manservant's hand to eat, and immediately scolded her daughter, saying that he would rather starve to death than have sex with a man.

His daughter was so ashamed that she had not eaten water or rice for several days, and almost starved to death.

He is still like this to his daughter, and the behavior of Hua Buckwheat is not "shocked" to describe.

Zhu Zhanji is in the same vein, the imperial power is snatched, and what he is most afraid of hearing is the judgment of the ministers, their words and deeds do not match the requirements of "Emperor Taizu", the implication is that they are not authentic.

Lu Zhen's words, he couldn't refute them.

"Your Majesty! Lu Shangshu's words are biased, and the eldest princess is also for ......"

Before Hu Yanjin finished speaking, he was interrupted by the emperor:

"I've made up my mind. The eldest princess of Baoying is the head of the eldest princess and should bear more royal responsibilities. According to Lu Shangshu's words, let the eldest princess Baoying go to the main hall of the Taimiao Temple and kneel for seven days to offset her sin of dissecting the corpse. ”

Huyan Jin's heart was cold. The temple is not far from the palace, but it is tall and empty, and it is not warm at all......

The holy decree has been issued, Hu Yanjin looked at the back of the emperor leaving, his brows were tightly locked, but he couldn't do anything.

The guards at the gate of Chonghua Palace withdrew, and Can'er was the first to run in.

"Eldest Princess!"

When Hua Qiao saw them come in, her face was full of surprise, and she hurriedly came out of the inner hall to meet them:

"How did you guys get in? Is the case found out? My ban was revoked? ”

Xiao Gao didn't reply to her words, stared at her face and asked suspiciously, "Why is the girl's face so bad?" ”

"It's okay, maybe I didn't sleep well last night. Tell me what the case is like. Hua Qiao hugged the excited black beans at her feet, and asked Xiao Gao with a raised face.

"We found evidence in the Imperial Garden, the second princess fell to her death first, and Imperial Doctor Hu helped them, blowing the poison into the stomach of the second princess with a reed pole and planting it on the pastry."

"Imperial Doctor Hu? ...... No wonder, knowing that poisoning after death will go down to the stomach, even the pretense is blinded. The queen ......."

"Lord Huyan used Aunt Xinghua to take the blame, and this morning he has already used arsenic to send Imperial Doctor Hu and Xinghua on the road."

Hua Qiao nodded and said, "He did the right thing, they didn't kill people on purpose, this is already a blessing." The filial piety has not passed, and the time for the imperial brother to ascend the throne is still short, and it is not a wise move to move the queen.

Xinghua is her right-hand man, and breaking one of her arms can be regarded as a lesson for her. It's hateful that Jiaxing escaped, I guess, her bag of arsenic is for me nine times out of ten. ”

She looked at Xiao Gao, then at Can'er, and asked strangely:

"Chonghua Palace has lifted the ban, why don't you look happy? Why don't you hurry up and prepare, let's eat the pot tonight! ”

"Eldest princess......" Xiao Qi wanted to speak and stopped.

"What's wrong? Is something wrong with the adults? Hua Qiao felt that they looked weird.

Xiao Gao looked at Hua Qiao and said, "My lord is fine, but if you want to cancel the ban, you must go to the main hall of the Taimiao Temple to kneel and incense for seven days...... ...... Atonement

"Atonement? ...... Is it because I dissected the body, not because of this case? ”

Only then did Hua Qiao realize what Daddy often said to her: Da Ming's punishment for the dissection of the corpse is very cruel, and you must not touch it unless you have to.

She smiled at them and said:

"Isn't it just kneeling for seven days? It's better than being locked up here and in jail alone. Can'er, you hurry up and make a pair of cotton pants for me, the knee part is thicker, and there are ...... You go and look at the bed. Xiao Qi, can you prepare more dry food for me......"

Seeing the smiling buckwheat, everyone's hearts were obviously cheerful.

Hua Qiao stood up, her eyes were dark, and she sneezed loudly, and she smiled:

"Oops, squatting for a long time...... Daddy must be missing me! ”

While speaking, a team of Jin Wuwei came to Chonghua Palace, and the leader was General Jingyuan. His expression was also strange, and he said with a stiff face: "Eldest Princess Baoying, please come with us to Taimiao." ”

Hua Qiao nodded, turned around and entered the inner hall, went to the pillow and took something and stuffed it into his arms, and said to Xiao Gao: "The clothes will be put away in a while, and you will send them for me." ”

When she put on a big hat and followed Jing Yuan out of the palace gate, Xu suddenly blew the cold wind outside, and "Ahh Ahh Two sneezes in a row.

It's definitely not that the master misses her, it's the wind and cold! Xiao Gao's heart was pinched.

After a while, Can'er handed over the hastily processed cotton pants to Xiao Gao, and Xiao Qi stuffed some snacks into the package. She had just returned to the palace, and there were very few ready-made things, so she thought that she would receive the ingredients tomorrow and make them for the eldest princess.

Xiao Gao found two pieces of ginger, if you have a cold, this can be used.

"Little Seven! Come on! Can'er suddenly screamed beside the bed.

Xiao Gao didn't know what was going on, he also ran over with Xiao Qi, stretched out his head to look, and couldn't help blushing a little.

It turned out that the girl was dehydrated, and there were some blood marks on the bed.

No wonder she had a bad face and a slight chill...... In the past seven days, kneeling in the cold Taimiao, how can she withstand it?

Xiao Gao took the package that had become bigger and hurried out of the palace. When he arrived at Taimiao, he couldn't go in, so Jingyuan only asked a Jin Wuwei to take the package and send it in for her.

Gotta tell the adults!

Xiao Gao left the Taimiao and strode towards the West Market Street.
