Chapter 340: The Affair Is Revealed (2nd Update)
The rumors of the disappearance of pregnant women made Princess Qi have a bad premonition, so she invited her mother, Mrs. Qiu, "Mother, the village where those pregnant women are located is not far from that Zhuangzi, let my father take people away in case of accidents." ”
"Princess, you are too worried, those people don't have the courage to dare to search the princess's dowry Zhuangzi." Mrs. Qiu said disapprovingly.
"Be careful to sail the 10,000-year-old ship, it's only a matter of two or three months, there can be no accidents, you go back and ask your father to arrange for someone to take those pregnant women away immediately." Princess Qi pinched the pillow on her stomach hard, once King Qi knew that she was fake pregnant and used someone else's son to pretend to be a prince, not only would she be finished, but the Qiu family would also be finished.
Mrs. Qiu sighed and said, "If that incident hadn't happened back then, then you would have to take such a big risk to do this beheading." ”
"What's the point of saying this now, don't wait for me, if you give me a few more years, when I take care of my body, I may not be able to give birth to a son-in-law for the prince, but the surname Du is aggressive, and the prince has repeatedly accepted people into the house for the sake of the great cause, if I can't give birth to a son-in-law for a long time, this princess will be the ...... Even if the prince remembers the old love, it will fade after a long time. Princess Qi touched her face, her expression gloomy, "The red face is not old and the grace is cut first." ”
Mrs. Qiu wanted to speak and stopped, how could she not have been alone in the empty boudoir for many years.
The mother and daughter said a few more idle words, and before Mrs. Qiu left the palace, she went to see Concubine Qiu Hui, who was taken back to the palace by King Qi. Concubine Qiu Hui was cutting flowers and branches in the house, and when she saw Mrs. Qiu, she said with a smile: "Sister-in-law is here, I have seen Xi'er restless in the past few days, you persuade her more, and the rumors stop at the wise." ”
"I've already persuaded her, but she's pregnant, and her mind is heavy." Mrs. Qiu said with a smile.
"It's no wonder that she, she is pregnant, and it is inevitable to hear that a pregnant woman is missing." Concubine Qiu Hui was considerate and authentic.
The aunt and sister-in-law gossiped a few words, and Mrs. Qiu left the palace to go home, and conveyed Princess Qi's words to Qiu's father. Although Father Qiu felt that Princess Qi was too cautious, he still sent someone to transfer the pregnant woman in Zhuangzi, but he didn't expect that this move was simply to send evidence to people!
Those people fell into the hands of Tang Hu and the others, who had been waiting there for a long time, and then the chief of the guard of the East Palace who came on the order of the prince and the officials brought by Yin of Jingzhao Mansion, under the guidance of someone with a heart, also arrived.
After a little interrogation, and learning the truth, Jingzhao Mansion Yin had a headache, this is really a troublesome thing!
"It's better to leave this matter to the Holy Lord." The chief of the guard of the East Palace proposed.
"As it should be." If so, they escorted the Qiu family, the people from Zhuangzi, and the pregnant woman into the palace together.
Yin Jin of Jingzhao Mansion faced the saint, "Long live the lord, in the past few days, there have been rumors in the city that there are demons who have caused trouble to the neighbors, and several pregnant women are missing, Weichen took his subordinates and followed the clues all the way to investigate, and found that there were many pregnant women in the Zhuangzi, and they were not missing pregnant women, but the surrogate of Princess Qi. "The three of Tang Hu investigated the missing pregnant woman, and accidentally exposed the conspiracy of Princess Qi.
As soon as the words fell, the whole court was shocked, and the king of Qi came out and scolded Jingzhao Mansion Yin, "Bold dog official, you dare to slander the princess of this king!" ”
Jingzhao Mansion Yin said calmly: "Long live Lord, those pregnant women are outside the palace. ”
The saint said in a deep voice, "Bring them in." ”
"Brother Huang, they are deliberately framing their younger brothers." King Qi was angry and ruined. These people are so bold that they dare to search the princess's dowry Zhuangzi, and they really don't take him seriously.
"Long live the lord, the minister is investigating the case of the disappearance of a pregnant woman and found that Zhuangzi." Jingzhao Mansion Yin didn't know if others were targeting King Qi, but he definitely didn't think about targeting King Qi at first, but now he was on the thief ship.
The pregnant women were brought in, and they were holding up their big bellies for seven or eight months, and they were trying to kneel down with difficulty. ”
"Hurry up and thank you." The chamberlain who brought them in reminded them.
"Long live you." Pregnant women have uneven voices.
"Tell me what you know." The Holy Lord ordered directly.
The pregnant women were babbling and messing up. The prince raised his voice and said, "Say it one by one." ”
"The woman is a tenant farmer of the Qiu family, a few months ago, I was just pregnant, the Qiu housekeeper came to my house, gave twenty taels of silver, and took me to the Zhuangzi to raise the baby, at first the woman did not know why, and then I heard that if I gave birth to a son, I would take it to the palace and give the princess a son."
The other women said the same, and the ministers were shocked, and Princess Qi was so bold! is still the bloodline of the king of Qi, but the princess of Qi wants to replace the son-in-law with a farmer's son, and this son-in-law will inherit the prince in the future.
Princess Qi's move was to disturb the royal bloodline. The saint's face was gloomy, "Come on, Princess Xuanqi will enter the palace and let the imperial doctor in the palace diagnose her in the palace." The saint looked at Jingzhao Mansion Yin, "Xue Qing, if Princess Qi's pregnancy is true, do you know what your fate will be?" ”
"Those who slander the emperor's relatives should be punished." Jingzhao Mansion Yin said loudly.
King Qi glared at Jingzhao Mansion Yin with a blue face, although he didn't believe that Princess Qi would fake pregnancy, but he was faintly uneasy in his heart.
When the chamberlain arrived at the palace of King Qi, Princess Qi was accompanying Concubine Qiu Hui to enjoy the flowers, listening to the saint announcing her entry into the palace, her heart trembled, and she vaguely felt that the matter had been revealed, but she still forced herself to calm down and said to the chamberlain: "Please wait a moment." ”
Princess Qi changed into princess clothes and followed the chamberlain into the palace in a sedan chair. Although there are confessions from those pregnant women, they still have to be finally diagnosed by the imperial doctor; Before she could ask about the crime, she was still the princess of Yipin, and the saint was gracious, gave her a face, and asked the imperial doctor to check her pulse in the side hall.
In the side hall, the envoy, the judge, and the three imperial doctors of the Tai Hospital were waiting for Princess Qi, Princess Qi's face was pale, it was over, and she fell short, who were those who caught pregnant women? Damn it.
The five of them took the pulse of Princess Qi respectively, and they were all shocked, this Princess Qi was really pregnant. At this point, Princess Qi calmed down, "Go and report to the saint." "Becoming a king and losing, she lost, she admitted.
The envoy led his colleagues into the hall, everyone's eyes were on them, King Qi was also nervous, if Princess Qi was really pregnant, he would not only have no son-in-law, but also lose the help of the Qiu family.
"Your Majesty, Princess Qi is not pregnant." The envoy of the court reported respectfully.
The ministers in the hall who were stunned when Mount Tai collapsed and their faces remained unchanged, Princess Qi was really bold!
"No way, this can't be." King Qi shouted with a roar.
Jingzhao Mansion Yin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, the three boys didn't cheat him.
Shengshang glanced at King Qi coldly, "Princess Xuanqi went to the palace." ”
Princess Qi was brought in by the chamberlain, her face was pale, the pillow tied to her stomach had been taken down, looking at her flat lower abdomen, King Qi was like being struck by lightning, "You, why are you doing this?" ”
