Empress Dowager Zhao said: "The matter of the former prince, you have mentioned it to the mourning family before. However, with a forged letter from you, how can you prove that your brother was the author of the matter? ”

Xiao Yulin said: "The queen mother, the letter is forged, does the queen mother approve of this matter?" ”

"Uh...... This ......"

Empress Dowager Zhao choked and didn't know how to answer Xiao Yulin's words.

Xiao Yulin said: "The queen mother also knows that one of the perjuries that framed the former prince for rebellion was this letter. This letter is exactly the same as the letter in the criminal department's file. Since others can write it, it cannot be proved that the letter of the Criminal Department was written by the former prince himself. ”

Xiao Yulin: "Originally, the former prince plotted to rebel, and there were many doubts, and the former prince didn't need to rebel at all. Moreover, the person who forged the epistle is not dead. ”

Empress Dowager Zhao's eyes widened again and said, "What? He's not dead yet? How can it be! ”

Xiao Yulin said: "Queen Mother, this person is indeed not dead!" ”

Xiao Yulin: "The person who was solved by the emperor's brother back then was actually a charlatan. The person who really imitated this letter was called Fang Shengshou, the charlatan and Fang Shengshou were friends, and he usually took Fang Shengshou's calligraphy and paintings to show off, and he gained this reputation in the rivers and lakes. ”

Xiao Yulin: "Later, the imperial brother found the charlatan and asked him to imitate this letter. The man knew that he could not disobey the order of the imperial brother, so he found Fang Shengshou and threatened him to copy the letter. Later, when the former prince's case came out, that person was punished by the emperor's brother. ”

Xiao Yulin: "Fang Shengshou has also met with the former prince a few times, and the former prince also appreciates Fang Shengshou very much. Therefore, Fang Shengshou knew that he had created evil, and he regretted it until now, and he always wanted to overturn the case for the former prince. ”

Empress Dowager Zhao said: "But even so, you can't convict an emperor." ”

Empress Dowager Zhao said with certainty.

Xiao Yulin said: "Queen Mother, Erchen didn't think of asking the sin emperor's brother. Erchen also knows that this has always been the way of the emperor. However, now that the imperial brother has firmly sat on the throne, it is time to redress the grievances of the former prince and the Zhong family. ”

Xiao Yulin: "Zhang Sizhao is loyal to the emperor's brother, and he was also the Zhong Yushi he reported back then. Just push him out and let him take all the charges, and the matter will be settled. ”

Mrs. Zhao was worried and said, "I'm afraid, your imperial brother will not do it." ”

Xiao Yulin said: "The retainer will mention this matter to the imperial brother." As for how the royal brother thinks, the sons and daughters don't know. ”

Empress Dowager Zhao asked again: "Does Lin'er really want to be like this?" ”

Xiao Yulin nodded and said, "Hmm! The queen mother, the life of her sons, and the future of the Rui Wangfu all point to this matter. ”

"But even if you push this matter out, with your imperial brother's temperament...... Now that the mourning family is still there, he won't do anything to you. When the mourning family goes one day, you will be ......"

"Erchen solved a big problem for the imperial brother and saved his face, presumably the imperial brother will also let Erchen go in this role. Moreover, if the imperial brother finds some excuse to get rid of his sons and get rid of the Rui Wangfu, what will outsiders think of this matter? Don't say fratricidal, as soon as this matter leaks out again, the royal brother will be burdened with the lives of the two princes. ”

Empress Dowager Zhao's heart was a little flustered.

Because, this thing is so shocking, too sudden.

Xiao Yulin said: "Queen Mother, when the son entered the palace today, he wanted to tell the imperial brother about this. Such a thing, the queen mother could not think about it for a while, and the sons went to the imperial brother first. ”

After speaking, Xiao Yulin stood up.

Empress Dowager Zhao hurriedly grabbed Xiao Yulin and said, "Lin'er, do you really want to tell your imperial brother about this?" ”

Xiao Yulin nodded firmly and said, "Hmm! Mother, this is the only chance for the sons. ”

Empress Dowager Zhao's eyes darkened, the strength in her hand loosened a little, and Xiao Yulin's hand slipped from her hand.

At this moment, Empress Dowager Zhao's heart was empty, as if Xiao Yulin was gone, and she would never see him again.

When Empress Dowager Zhao came back to her senses, there was no longer Xiao Yulin in the hall.

Empress Dowager Zhao stood up, took a few steps forward, and shouted, "Lin'er! ”

Then, Empress Dowager Zhao looked at the outside of the open hall door like this, with a blank expression on her face.

Qinglian walked to the side of the Empress Dowager Zhao and said, "The Empress Dowager, the prince has grown up, and it is time to have his own thoughts." The slave maid listened to the words of the prince just now, and felt that most of what the prince said was the truth. ”

Qinglian: "Thinking about it, the prince has already thought it through, not because he was angry for a while, nor was he instigated by the princess's demagoguery." The slave maid felt that the prince might be right to do this. Now, it depends on how the emperor views this matter. ”

Empress Dowager Zhao muttered: "The emperor's thoughts, how can the mourning family not know about the mother? The emperor will not agree to Lin'er. I only hope that the emperor can still look at the face of the mourning family and let Lin'er have a way to live. ”

Qinglian said: "Queen Mother, the prince has not made any big mistakes, what reason does the emperor have to treat the prince's crimes?" ”

"If you want to add sin, why is there no sin?"

"The Queen Mother might as well take a look first, and the slave maid will ask someone to go to the imperial study to keep an eye on it."

Empress Dowager Zhao nodded slightly.

Qinglian walked outside and whispered a few words to a palace maid. Afterwards, Qinglian called the palace people to come in and wait.

Qinglian helped the Empress Dowager Zhao to the inner room to rest, and the Empress Dowager Zhao was still in a daze.

Empress Dowager Zhao said: "Qinglian, you say, is Princess Rui good or bad for Lin'er?" ”

Qinglian smiled and said, "The slave maid used to be the same as the queen mother, and she thought that the prince was just a child who didn't grow up. Listening to the prince's words just now, I feel that the prince has already started to plan the affairs of the Rui Wangfu, where can he be an unassertive person? Presumably, from the very beginning, when the prince took Princess Rui back to the house, the prince had already planned it, right? ”

Qinglian: "The prince loves Princess Rui, and everyone in the world knows it." So, what is Princess Turui? This kind of thing is clear to only the two people of the authorities, and outsiders can't understand it. Since the prince loves Princess Rui, it means that Princess Rui is good to the prince. ”

Qinglian: "I think at the beginning, Princess Rui was also like the prince, pretending to be ignorant, I'm afraid it was also to save her life, right?" In fact, Princess Rui is also a person with means and courage. With people like Princess Rui by the side of the prince, the Rui Wangfu will only be better in the future, and the Queen Mother should be happy. ”

Empress Dowager Zhao nodded and said, "Perhaps, from the beginning, the mourning family had prejudices against her first, so they just kept guarding her and ignoring her skills." ”
