Chapter Ninety-Eight: Proving Innocence
The concubine was a little apprehensive, because she didn't know how to say it unconsciously, and now she regrets it very much, thinking that she is also crazy, and she actually talked to Murong Cha like this.
However, the imperial concubine raised her eyebrows, but she didn't find that this concubine still had such courage before, and she dared to talk to Murong Cha like this.
But she just looked at it with a joking mentality, after all, shouting directly with Murong Cha like this is just a fool with courage and no strategy!
The concubine was so frightened that she knelt down directly, "Queen Mother, it was the concubine who said the wrong thing just now, it's just Niangniang, the concubine can go home this time this year, and beg Niangniang to tell the emperor not to cancel the almsgiving." ”
This kneeling made the imperial concubine, who was still a little worthy of the concubine, suddenly cold-faced, but it was just a thing that was greedy for life and afraid of death, and she gave in like this without saying anything.
Murong Cha snorted coldly, "You can have a chance to go home every year before this, but except for the main palace, they don't have a chance to go home every year."
You asked the palace to tell the emperor, why is this? This is a political matter, don't you know that the harem is not allowed to participate in politics, do you want to harm the palace? ”
Murong Cha was holding back the anger in her stomach at the moment, since she entered the palace, no one had ever dared to talk to her like her, this time it really made her angry.
The first time she didn't do anything, she was slandered, she hadn't settled accounts with the concubine, she deliberately prevented herself from eating with the emperor, and now she came to Xingshi to ask for guilt.
"Niangniang, the concubine knows that you are very powerful, so the concubine begs you to talk to the emperor, as long as you say it, the emperor will definitely not blame you."
Han Xi looked at the concubine and understood that she was not straightforward at all, but really stupid. Even when she offended the queen, she still wanted to ask the queen to help her like this, it was like a fool's dream.
Murong Cha stood up abruptly and smiled coldly, "Okay, do you want this palace to go and talk to the emperor?" Okay, come with this palace, and this palace will go and help you talk about it. ”
Murong Cha directly pulled the concubine and walked to the emperor, and the concubine did not resist, because she felt that this matter must have been done by the queen, and if she went to make a scene, maybe there was room for maneuver.
Rong Jing squinted her eyes coldly, she knew that the concubine was really finished now, and Murong Cha took the concubine to see the emperor just to get rid of her completely.
Because Murong Cha was really walking too fast, Han Xi had a little trouble keeping up, and he usually didn't see that she could walk so fast.
"Gonggong Li, the palace and the concubine want to see the emperor, please report it."
When Gonggong Li saw Murong Cha and the concubine, it was obvious that there was something, so he didn't dare to delay anything, so he hurriedly went to report it.
"The emperor invited the two masters in."
As soon as he entered, Murong Cha let go of the hand holding the concubine, and the angry expression on his face suddenly turned into a distressed look.
Han Xi watched this expression change with his own eyes, and he had to admire it again, it was really as fast as turning a book.
The concubine was also a little apprehensive, but she still had a hint of expectation, after all, maybe there was still a turn for the better in this matter.
Gao Zhan raised his head and glanced at the two of them lightly, a little puzzled, "What is the matter with the two of you looking for me?" ”
The queen knelt down suddenly, "Your Majesty, the concubines see that the emperor just wants the emperor to give the concubines a clean slate, and the concubines really can't stand such slander." ”
Gao Zhan was a little puzzled, not understanding what Murong Cha meant by this, "How do you say this?" Who slandered the Queen? ”
Murong Cha pointed at the concubine, and her appearance became even paler, "It's the concubine, because the emperor said just now that she canceled the annual almsgiving, she said that it was the concubine who provoked the emperor to do this, just to prevent her from returning to her parents' house every year."
But the concubines of the harem are not allowed to participate in politics have always been kept in mind, and the concubines have never said anything about this matter, and the emperor knows about it, and the concubines only know about it when the emperor announces it, and ask the emperor to prove it to the concubines! ”
Gao Zhan frowned slightly, the queen obviously didn't know about this matter, not to mention what she proposed. In addition to asking some people's opinions on this matter, he also began to prepare for it himself after Han Xi said the answer he thought of.
It has nothing to do with the queen at all, and he definitely doesn't change his decision on important matters because of what the women in the harem say.
Gao Zhan looked at the concubine, his face was a little indifferent, "Concubine, is there such a thing?" Did you really say that, the Queen? ”
The concubine cried and shouted while kneeling, "Your Majesty, the concubine did say that, but the emperor, you plan to defend the queen's mother, don't you?" If it wasn't proposed by the queen's mother, then the emperor would definitely not suddenly change the habit that had lasted for so long. ”
Gao Zhan snorted coldly, "Then why do you think you will be the queen?" What reason does the queen have to do this? ”
"Of course, there is a reason, it must be because the concubine disturbed the queen's mother and the emperor's meal time yesterday, so the queen was unhappy, so she persuaded the emperor to do this."
Han Xi was also on the side, but I have to say that this concubine is really stupid, I used to think that he was a shrewd person who was very good at judging the situation, but now it seems that his ideas are really overestimated.
Murong Cha hurriedly shook his head, "Your Majesty, if the concubine really minds, then she must have said it directly last night." Your Majesty, you know about your concubines, and your concubines won't do that. ”
Gao Zhan nodded, looking at the concubine's face even colder, "Concubine, all this is just your suspicion." I can tell you right now that the decision to cancel the almsgiving was entirely my own idea, and no one proposed it.
I have been thinking about this matter for a few years, the harem is not allowed to participate in politics, so how could I let the queen interfere with my thoughts! ”
The concubine was stunned in place, never thinking that it was really not the queen who did it, but the emperor himself.
But what she said just now, the emperor was obviously very unhappy. Now the concubine regrets what she just said.
The emperor sighed, "Empress, you have been wronged, but I didn't expect that such a thing would make you slander." ”
Murong Cha shook his head, "It's nothing, the concubine brought someone to the emperor, just to let the emperor help prove the innocence of the concubine." ”
