The teacher invited by the emperor to the eldest prince was impeached for not cultivating his personal virtues, the reason was that the teacher's eldest daughter-in-law committed suicide by hanging the beam, but the deceased's dowry maid accused the housemother of being forced to rape by Weng's father to hang the beam, and the deceased's family made a big fuss.

"What is the truth about this?" Spring return asked Lan Ting.

"Cen Gong has a good character, I don't believe that he will behave in such a contrary way, but although Yu Langjun has repeatedly stated that his wife has gone to a dead end because of the death of his two sons one after another, but the female family does not believe in Yu Langjun's explanation at all, and insists that the confession of the servant girl is the truth, Tang Ge Lao and Qiao's family bite this matter tightly, inciting the party to impeach one after another, the emperor has ordered the Metropolitan Procuratorate to thoroughly investigate, and first removed Dr. Yu Gong from his position, the eldest prince was also reprimanded by the emperor because of his defense for the teacher, the emperor's will, No matter what the truth is, it is difficult for those who are riddled with slander to be the prince's teacher, and the eldest prince only cares about his personal feelings and ignores the law of the country, which shows that the prince is indeed uneducated. ”

"Respecting teachers and valuing education is the virtue of a gentleman, how can the emperor blame the eldest prince for his apostasy on this basis?!" Chungui frowned.

"In the final analysis, because of the Houjin incident, the emperor wanted to take advantage of the Gong Yu incident to help the Tang Party prestige, so that more courtiers would seconded the proposal to raise troops to crusade against Houjin."

Lan Ting saw the situation clearly, but Chun Gui also knew that he would not give an inch, and although he was worried, he couldn't make random ideas about these social affairs.

On this day, I happened to receive a letter from my father.

Gu Jicang high school gold list after the appointment of the Hanlin Academy to revis, to Huayan three years before inviting a foreign officer, when the prefect of Nankang, because the eldest son Hua Reignwood has been admitted to the Jinshi to stay in the six departments of politics, so only Mo Wen accompanied his father-in-law to work, Chungui is very uneasy about his third brother's temperament, for fear that he will not take care of his father's daily life, so he often writes to greet his father's health, and Gu Jicang is busy with official business, and after receiving his daughter's family letter, he will immediately write a reply, and this time the family letter is still safe.

Chungui turned over his father's handwritten book and read it several times before he received it and put it in the box, always thinking that he was restless during this time, for fear of revealing it at the end of the pen, wouldn't it make his father worry about the affairs of Beijing far away from home, so he didn't rush to write a reply.

was drinking agarwood to rest and calm down, how did he know that Mei Jealousy opened the curtain and came in, and talked about a big thing that Tang Hui inquired about outside.

"It's good, there are rumors outside that the king of Anping County suddenly died, Tang Hui didn't dare to report the matter of hearsay to the eldest grandmother, and deliberately went to the outside of the Anping palace to go around a few times, and sure enough, I saw that the white flags at the gate were hung up, and the courtyard wall was crying, and not long after, I saw a team of brocade guards going straight into the palace, and the guards were dispersing the idlers who were watching."

Chungui only felt a fluster.

Although she couldn't figure it out for a while, she inexplicably felt that this matter was very bad, and she almost wanted to go to Mrs. Yi to inquire immediately, but in the end, she couldn't help it, Lan Ting happened to be on duty in the cabinet for the past three days, and she couldn't go back to the Taishi Mansion.

Zhao Qingcheng confirmed that the rumors were true: "A few days ago, Zongzheng Temple was reported that a servant girl in the Anping palace was pregnant, and the king of Anping wrote to ask for the maid to be selected for the name

After the report, the thunder was furious. ”

Chungui was also a little calm at this time, frowned and said: "The emperor posthumously named the father of King Anping as Emperor Xiaomu, it must be because of the previous emperor's decree, the first emperor abolished the crown prince of Anping and ordered him to be placed under house arrest in the palace, he must be unbearable in his heart, but he also knows that only in this way can the emperor's suspicion be completely dispelled, so the first emperor must also have a will, telling the emperor not to harm King Anping again." But some time ago, there were rumors and slander in the market, and the emperor had always been on guard against King Anping, and deliberately cut off the heirs of Emperor Xiaomu, and now the Ji people of Anping Wangfu have just been confirmed to be pregnant, and they were assassinated together with King Anping...... Wouldn't Jingzhong even more slander and question the emperor's mutilation of blood relatives and nephews? ”

"Therefore, the emperor can not cover up the cause of King Anping's death, otherwise he will not be able to quell the slander, you need to know that the first emperor announced the edict of succession in the world, but praise the emperor for his friendship and brotherhood, if it cannot be confirmed that the death of King Anping has nothing to do with the emperor...... Negative ancestors will inevitably greatly damage the prestige of today. Zhao Qingcheng also frowned: "The emperor has ordered Jinyi Wei to thoroughly investigate this case." ”

Chungui said sadly: "My niece is really uneasy in her heart, I am afraid that this accident is a conspiracy against the Taishi Mansion. ”

When the third lady heard this, she also became anxious, and asked, "The master can see the Lan Ting, how does the Lan Ting analyze?" ”

Zhao Qingcheng shook his head: "Now that I am serving in the Imperial Court, it is inconvenient for me to meet privately with Lan Ting in the imperial court, and such a major event happened today, and several ministers in the cabinet have also been edicted by the emperor to enter the Qianqing Palace for discussion, however, the emperor ordered Tao Xiaoshen to supervise the case, and Tao Xiaoshen should not be unfavorable to the Taishi Mansion." ”

Unbeknownst to him, the next morning, when Chun Hui had just finished dealing with the routine affairs in the morning, Tang Hui rushed to the Eagle Garden in a panic and told him about a thunderbolt on a sunny day.

It was the family members of Shen Ge's old mansion who quietly came to the Taishi Mansion and informed them that last night, the emperor suddenly ordered Lan Ting to be arrested and imprisoned!

"Edict? Why did the emperor imprison the cabinet ministers! "Spring return was shocked.

"The person from Shen Bachelor's Mansion only dares to reveal that it is related to the assassination of King Anping!"

The sun seemed to be particularly scorching on this day, and she was stunned and only had a few breaths, so she made up her mind that she couldn't just wait in the Taishi Mansion, she wanted to enter the palace immediately to see the queen.

Mingzhu heard about Lan Ting's imprisonment from Cining Palace, and she was also anxious for a while, but this time even Concubine Hui didn't know how to deal with it, so she only suggested that it would be better to invite Mrs. Yi into the palace to discuss.

"Which palace person made a big mistake, but it's rare to see you so solemn."

"It's a small palace person who doesn't know what to hear outside, chewing his tongue with people." Yao Xue was vague.

Mingzhu frowned and said, "What kind of gossip is it that makes you so angry?" ”

Yaoxue hesitated and remained silent.

Mingzhu became more and more impetuous: "What is the situation now, you are still hiding things and choking, if there is another delay, I am afraid that I will not be able to bear the consequences." ”

Yaoxue saw that the queen was in a hurry, so she didn't dare to hide it anymore, and knelt down and said, "I don't know where the slave and maid heard the words, and they dared to say it...... said that the emperor was ...... to Mrs. Gu In the early years, it was still the first emperor's dynasty, and at the canonization ceremony of the East Palace, what happened to Zhenlong's killing, it was the deceased Tao Cairen who said that the emperor loved Mrs. Gu, and said that this time the emperor angrily ordered Zhao Gebu to be imprisoned, which was intended to force Zhao Gebu and Mrs. Gu...

…”

The words were still stammering, but Mingzhu also understood, and said angrily: "Damn it, there are such unbearable rumors in the palace at this juncture, call that slave and maid in, I will personally judge who she is listening to slandering the king!" ”

Concubine Hui hurriedly stopped: "Niangniang is angry, please be more cautious, even if this matter is thoroughly investigated, you can't detect the mastermind behind it, but it will cause ups and downs in the inner court, and if this matter is really groundless, how can the mastermind dare to slander the king, it must be...... Groundless winds may not be without cause. ”

"Aso even said that to you!" Mingzhu's chest fluctuated rapidly: "If you don't investigate it thoroughly, won't these rumors continue to spread?" Wouldn't it be a storm in the inner court? Not only did the emperor's reputation suffer greatly, but even Sister A's ...... If such a disaster occurs, it can only be Sister Ah who bears the blame! ”

Concubine Hui had no choice but to say more clearly: "Niangniang thinks about it, who the mastermind is actually doesn't need to be thoroughly investigated, it must be the concubine!" The concubine is greatly protected by the Empress Dowager of Shoukang Palace, so if the mother investigates thoroughly, she will definitely notice the Empress Dowager! How could the Empress Dowager slander the emperor for no reason, so the concubine dared to assert that there was no reason. ”

Mingzhu was like a thunderbolt, it was unbelievable, and Yaoxue listened to Concubine Hui's words, and also understood that the situation was very urgent, so she didn't dare to hide it at this time, and told the queen the truth about the clues she had noticed many years ago, and choked up: "It's not that the slave maid is unfaithful to the mother, but according to the slave maid's observation, although the emperor is interested in Mrs. Gu, Mrs. Gu is indifferent, and the slave and maid are lucky, secretly thinking that although the emperor has this thought, he will not force Mrs. Gu, and the emperor is so dependent on the Zhao Pavilion, he can only press it, and time has passed, I also forgot that thought, if the slave told the mother, wouldn't it make the mother sad and distressed, and even more so the mother complained that the emperor violated morality and etiquette, and the emperor and queen were out of harmony, and the slave and maid would be even more difficult to atone for their mistakes. ”

Seeing that the queen was stunned, Concubine Hui also sighed, and continued to analyze: "Niangniang, what cannot be ignored is what the purpose of the concubine to reveal this matter at this time, it is precisely to provoke the mother to investigate this matter thoroughly, and when the rumors are difficult to cover up, the emperor will be angry, but how can he blame the queen mother?" can only complain about the deterioration of the situation, the assassination of King Anping, the emperor must not be slandered because of this, and the imprisonment of Zhao Gebu must also be related to this, the concubine is to let Niangniang completely centrifuge from the emperor!

Therefore, not only can Niangniang not be able to thoroughly investigate this matter, but also cannot allow Mrs. Gu to meet, Niangniang wants to make the emperor believe that Niangniang and the emperor are of the same mind, and everything is important to the emperor! ”

Mingzhu stared at Concubine Hui for a while before saying: "What you say is reasonable, for the sake of Dalang, I should indeed protect myself, but I can't watch the emperor persecute Zhongliang and bully his minister's wife!" Will the brother-in-law assassinate King Anping? Will the brother-in-law let the emperor bear the defamation? This is clearly a villain framing and slandering! Where does the emperor not know the character of his brother-in-law and the loyalty of his brother-in-law? The emperor was delusional, he knew that his brother-in-law was innocent, but he wanted to use this accident to force his brother-in-law and sister to comply! No, I absolutely can't tolerate such a despicable and shameless behavior of the emperor, and I can't watch the emperor break up the loving husband and wife of my sister and brother-in-law, just because of this incident, the emperor is disgusted and abolishes my throne, and I admit it. Da Lang is the emperor's own flesh and blood, the emperor will not admit that the six relatives will not admit the guilt of Da Lang, I was deposed, Da Lang is not a son-in-law, and there is no longer a need to compete with the rest of the princes for the throne. ”

Concubine Hui heard the queen say all the words about the abolition, and knew that she couldn't persuade her, so she only comforted: "Don't be anxious, no matter what, let's see Mrs. Gu first." ”
