Chapter 196: The Power of Dongchang (4)

The queen was stunned for a moment, and the next second she was really frightened.

She really didn't expect the emperor to come at this time.

After all, it was such an unhappy parting at the dinner just now, and even the queen was already prepared for the emperor to ignore her for a month.

But he didn't expect the emperor to arrive at Kunning Palace at this time.

And it just so happened that I met her and happened to be in ...... When confronting Dongchang.

The empress was thinking in her heart that maybe the emperor was not as angry as he was at the banquet, so he would come over at this time.

On the other hand, he was very scared, if the emperor was extremely angry because of her targeting Dongchang, what would he do.

The queen didn't have time to think about it anymore, so she hurriedly went to salute, "Greetings to Your Majesty, Your Majesty is blessed with peace." ”

The queen squatted, but the emperor did not call her up, but just stood in front of her and looked down at her, and then snorted softly, "As soon as I came in, I heard the queen making a big fire. ”

The emperor glanced at her, "Who is upsetting the empress?" ”

The queen did not dare to speak.

The emperor bypassed her, then walked to the middle and sat down, as if he had only seen Cao Tingyu now, and sighed, "Cao Tingyu?" Why are you still here at this point in time? ”

Cao Tingyue lowered his head and replied, "Back to Your Majesty's words, Niangniang has something to tell the slaves, so she specially summoned the servants to come." ”

"Did I call you, or did I bind you?"

"Your Majesty......" the Empress said hurriedly.

The emperor didn't show any affection, "Empress, I'm asking Cao Qianhu." ”

Cao Tingyue lowered his head and only said, "The slave doesn't dare." ”

The emperor shook the string of beads in his hand, and then coughed again, "Also, you Dongchang people have always been cautious, how dare you accuse the queen in person." ”

The emperor laughed again, "Then the empress, are you the one who summoned someone?" ”

"Your Majesty......" The queen was about to speak, but the emperor said again, "The queen should think clearly before replying, after all, what is the crime of bullying the king, the queen should be clear." ”

The queen was stunned, she only now understood that the emperor was simply prepared.

Or, the emperor didn't come here to see her or anything, it was just ...... Because I knew that so much happened in Kunning Palace, I came here specially.

The queen is still squatting, but the squatting time is a bit long, and the whole person is inevitably a little shaky.

The emperor saw all this, but there was no other reaction, just said, "The queen can't answer?" Don't you dare to answer? Still reluctant to answer? ”

The Empress knelt down suddenly, "Your Majesty." The concubine was suspicious of the second prince's affairs, so she called Cao Qianhu to Kunning Palace to question, but she really didn't mean anything else. ”

The emperor leaned forward slightly, and his tone was even lowered, "Empress, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, you are the master of the harem, don't you even know this?" ”

"The concubine really didn't think about interfering in politics! It's just that...... It's just that this is the matter of the second prince, and for the concubines, this is a family matter, so there is such a question. ”

The emperor sneered, "Family affairs? There are no big or small things in the heavenly family, and you don't know that you are the queen yet? Privately summoning people from Dongchang to your palace for questioning, this crime can be big or small, queen, you are really presumptuous! ”

The queen straightened her back, she didn't know where she got the courage, and suddenly dared to face the emperor: "Could it be that in Your Majesty's heart, all the concubines and the second prince are not as good as all the things in Dongchang?" ”

The emperor raised his eyebrows, "What did you say?" ”

The queen said, "Your Majesty just blindly believes in Dongchang, but who knows what these eunuchs and ministers have hidden in their stomachs, if they harbor evil intentions, if they are not very loyal to Your Majesty, how big a case will this be, but Your Majesty just believes them!" ”

The emperor sat back, "You are resentful." ”

"The concubine doesn't dare."

"The matter of the second prince, he admitted it in public."

If he doesn't admit it, does he still have to argue with his monarch in public? He is a prince, and he grew up with that kind of education, even if he is a teacher, he is not allowed to disobey his father like this! ”

"What is disobedience to the monarch? Violating the emperor's order is disobedience, and doing it knowing that you can't do it is disobedience, queen, what do you want me to do? No matter what the second prince did, I have to forgive him unconditionally? Excuse him? He is the only son of your queen, but for me, there is more than one of my princes! ”

The queen was stunned.

The Emperor said, "You said that the people of Dongchang may not be very loyal to me, do you think I am a fool or what?" Do you think I can't tell the difference between loyalty and treachery? The people in Dongchang just go to investigate things for me and never make their own judgments, but what about you, the queen, do you think you are to the center of me, but if I do something different from what the queen thinks, the queen will make such a form in front of me, just like that, the queen still feels that she is loyal to me? Do you still think there is any unjust case in this? ”

The emperor said so much in one breath, and finally knocked on the table, "Oh, I understand, as long as it is not handled in accordance with the queen's wishes, it will be an unjust case in the end." Why, this world will be left to your mother and son? ”

The queen kowtowed violently, "Your Majesty forgives the sin, the concubine definitely doesn't mean this!" The concubines don't dare! ”

"Queen, is there anything else in this world that you don't dare? What do you want to do today, Cao Ting is investigating the matter for me, and if you find out something, you will take action against him, what, do you want to kill people to vent your anger? If you pluck someone's head, you can treat it as if it didn't happen? Do you want to tell the world that no one is allowed to do anything for me anymore?! ”

"The concubine didn't ...... The concubine really doesn't dare! ”

For the emperor, why would he be so angry because of the queen's attack on Dongchang.

In fact, it is because the emperor believes that Dongchang is like his own eyes, that is, he can represent himself to a certain extent.

But the empress was about to make a move against her "part", which was too threatening and dangerous for the emperor.

Even if she was the empress, the emperor didn't want to endure it anymore.

The emperor slapped the table, "Empress, I recognize you as a queen, so I have endured you for many years, but it doesn't mean that you can be powerful in front of me like this." If you continue to be innocent, and still feel that you can manipulate my words at will, then I can tell you, I can make you queen, and I can depose you. ”

The Empress sat down on the ground and stared blankly at the Emperor.

They also had years of mutual affection, and she once believed that becoming the queen was not only to gain power, but also to get the emperor's respect and pity.

But today, she understands that the respect that the emperor gives you is nothing more than how he feels.

As soon as you make him feel like you've touched his defenses, everything here can be taken back.

The emperor stood up, then lifted his hem, snorted coldly, said nothing more, turned his head and left.

When Chen Sheng saw all this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and then said, "Niangniang, if there is nothing wrong, the slave will retire." ”

The queen ignored him.

Chen Sheng glanced at Cao Tingyu again, and then shouted in a low voice, "Go." So he took them away.

Only Ji Lin remained, and Cao Tingyu remained here.

Cao Tingyue turned his head and glanced at Ji Lin, and Ji Lin retreated very clearly and waited at the door.

Cao Tingyue was still kneeling, and the queen glanced at him, "Why don't you leave?" ”

The queen is not a stupid person, of course she knows, "Didn't you arrange all this?" Otherwise, how could you people from Dongchang come so quickly? ”

Cao Tingyue laughed, then stood up, looking at the queen almost condescendingly, "Niangniang, do you know why the second prince directly admitted everything later, and didn't want to argue?" ”

The queen looked at him, "What do you mean?" ”

There was hatred and tears in her eyes, almost all intertwined.

Cao Tingyue said, "As Your Majesty said, the second prince didn't explain himself at all, nor did he say that he was a wish, he directly admitted it, does Niangniang know why?" ”

The queen snorted coldly, "Of course, because in the public, it is inconvenient for him to have an argument with His Majesty." What, do you have any other answers? ”

Cao Tingyue laughed, and then shook his head, "Niangniang, that's because the second prince knows, and Dongchang knows about things that he doesn't want His Majesty to know." ”

Cao Tingyue looked down at the queen, "Niangniang said, we are eunuchs and ministers, Your Majesty will be deceived by the minions, because the minions have their own thoughts and thoughts. But Niangniang may not have thought that if this kind of mind and idea is used on the other party, maybe it can save her life. ”

The queen frowned.

Cao Tingyue said, "What Niangniang needs to know is that the things that the slaves found out about the Second Prince's Mansion are far more than this, and this time it is just a simple back-and-forth, Niangniang is not clear, but His Royal Highness the Second Prince is very clear." Therefore, the slave is here to advise Niangniang, in the future, don't make decisions on your own. Today it's me a slave, that's all. If it's someone else, it's hard to get along with. ”

Cao Tingyue smiled, his eyes fell on the door, "For example, if it is Chen Qianhu who came just now, because of Niangniang's behavior today, I am afraid that it will cause more trouble to the second prince." ”

The more Cao Ting knows, for the queen mother, perhaps, how she is no longer the point, the point is what will happen to the second prince, now that Jiahe is gone, there is only one second prince by her side.

Then the second prince is the queen's last weakness.

Cao Ting walked out of the door, "So, Niangniang should think twice before acting, today's matter, of course the slave does not care, Niangniang rest assured." ”

The queen lost her soul and ...... the east factory What a terrible existence?
