Chapter 542: Confrontation in the Golden Luan Palace
This night is destined to be unpeaceful, such as Jin Qilan, who returned to Cining Palace, but still can't believe that he would call Lan Ke his mother when he was delirious.
At night, Jin Qilan lay on the bed, covered with a silk quilt, and looked at the golden veil on his head with a little distraction in his eyes.
He remembered biting Lan Ke, and her hand seemed to be badly injured and bleeding.
He felt very sorry in his heart, but when he was hugged by Lan Ke, an inexplicable feeling rose in his heart, the person holding him didn't seem to be a strange woman, but his real mother.
The moonlight spilled into the room through the window, and in the quiet and peaceful atmosphere, the pictures of getting along with Lan Ke in the past gradually came up, and with these memories, Jin Qilan gradually fell into a deep sleep.
At this time, Lanyue Palace.
The people from the Internal Affairs Office came over with a group of minions, took away the precious porcelain placed in the Lanyue Palace, and took away all the clothes for Wen Xiuyan, and even the palace maids of the Lanyue Palace were taken away by the people of the Internal Affairs Office, and they were all purchased for her according to the specifications of the concubine.
"Okay, say goodbye to the concubine Niangniang, don't serve the Niangniang, I don't even remember the appearance of the Niangniang."
As the head of the Internal Affairs Office said to a few servants of the Lanyue Palace, those people stood behind him and respectfully saluted Wen Xiuyan, who was sitting in the main hall.
After returning to the palace, Wen Xiuyan's clothes, which belonged to the second concubine of the Zhengerpin, were forced to change, and the jewelry on her body was removed, and even the combed bun was removed.
At this moment, she was wearing an ivory white tunic and sitting barefoot on a mahogany chair, her slender pale fingers tightly gripping the armrests, looking at the minions in front of her with a smile.
The voice said sarcastically: "It's really a tree falling down, this palace is just a little defeated, you all want to leave Lanyue Palace, and the day this palace leaves the palace in the future, it is the time to return to the peak, you minions had better not break into my eyes." ”
The head of the Internal Affairs Office looked at her with a smile, "Concubine Yue, the slave knows that you have been punished by His Majesty, and I am not happy, but don't use this to scare the slaves, the slaves are just acting on orders, after all, this is still the meaning of the Queen Mother." ”
"You murdered His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, to put it mildly, it would be good if Your Majesty didn't blame Scholar Su, you, let's think about how to protect yourself first!"
Often the truth is the harshest, and the manager tells the truth unequivocally.
Wen Xiuyan's face changed, but the head of the Internal Affairs Office didn't even look at her, and only waved his hand to the people behind: "Let's go!" There's not much more to stay here. ”
"Yes, father-in-law."
The palace people responded, bowed their heads and left behind him, and the huge Lanyue Palace suddenly lost half of the people, and there was obviously the sound of their footsteps leaving, but the air seemed to be quieter.
Gradually, the resentment in Wen Xiuyan's eyes could no longer be suppressed, and she casually slammed the teacup on the ground and scolded: "Get out!" Get out of the way! Even if there is only one person in this palace, this palace will ascend to the throne of the queen sooner or later! ”
But loneliness climbed up her heart like a poison ivy, stabbing her painfully, Wen Xiuyan's eyes were red, and crystal tears slid down her pale face.
At some point, a cold wind slowly blew in, and the hair that was scattered over her shoulders fluttered messily.
The original two personal attendants were standing outside the door at the moment, both of them trembling a little, but no one went in to comfort Wen Xiuyan.
Down-and-out concubines are always like this, once they slide off the road to falling out of favor, it is difficult to climb back to their original position. Home
The next day, the Golden Luang Palace.
On the dragon chair, Jin Yantang sat on the dragon chair wearing a black court robe with gold trim embroidered dragon patterns as usual, and after dealing with the size of the court, his deep gaze fell on Scholar Su.
Scholar Su had some doubts in his heart: Why does His Majesty always look at it intentionally or unintentionally? Is there something on his face that can't be done?
But Jin Yantang didn't say it, and Scholar Su didn't ask, just pretended to be deaf and dumb, ignoring Jin Yantang's gaze.
But at this moment, Shang Kelin, who was headed on the right, stood up and suddenly led the topic to him: "Your Majesty, the minister has something about Concubine Yue Niangniang who wants to ask Scholar Su. ”
As soon as these words came out, although everyone in the court did not raise their heads, they secretly set their eyes on Shang Kelin and Scholar Su.
Scholar Su's eyes darkened, but he didn't confront Shang Kelin head-on.
He wanted to see what tricks Shang Kelin was going to use.
Chen Shilang, who was standing in front of Scholar Su, raised his eyebrows slightly, and a hint of playfulness flashed in his eyes, but he didn't participate in it, just watched from the wall.
"If Shang Aiqing has anything to say, he wants to ask Scholar Su, but it doesn't hurt to say it."
Jin Yantang did not refute Shang Kelin, but said to him as if connived.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" After Shang Kelin thanked Jin Yantang, he turned to look at Scholar Su, and said with a cold look in his eyes: "Yesterday, Concubine Yue Niangniang poisoned and murdered His Royal Highness the Prince, and also framed Miss Lanke, I don't know what Scholar Su thinks about this matter?" ”
"I don't know if Scholar Su knew about this in advance, but he chose to conceal it and not report it, committing the crime of bullying the king, wanting to be unfavorable to His Royal Highness the Prince, and still having the intention of rebellion!"
One after another big crimes were deducted from Scholar Su's head, and Scholar Su didn't react, but the people around him had already made an uproar, as if they didn't expect Scholar Su to have such courage.
Scholar Su subconsciously raised his eyes and glanced at Jin Yantang, but saw that Jin Yantang looked indifferent, looking at him condescendingly, and there was no trace of emotion in his eyes.
Suddenly, Scholar Su's face turned pale, and he hurriedly knelt down on the ground and explained: "Your Majesty, the minister's loyalty to His Majesty and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can be seen by the sun and the moon, and he definitely does not dare to instruct Concubine Yue to do such a rebellious thing, let alone have the intention of rebellion as General Shang said!" I don't know if General Shang has any grievances with the minister, and he wants to slander the old minister like this! ”
After that, Scholar Su glanced at Shang Kelin forgedly.
Jin Yantang gently knocked on the armrest of the dragon chair, lowered his eyes and looked at Scholar Su, but did not speak.
After a while, he changed the topic, looked at Shang Kelin and said: "Shang Aiqing is reasonable, after all, this Concubine Yue was killed by Su University Scholar to force her into the palace, yesterday Concubine Yue poisoned and murdered the prince, and the poison came from Chunfeng Hall, Su University Scholar did not know, then he also has an unshirkable responsibility, according to Shang Aiqing, how should this Su University Scholar be handled?"
Shang Kelin hooked his lips and smiled, his eyes squinted at the Su scholar who was kneeling on the ground, and then bowed to Jin Yantang: "Back to Your Majesty, the flood in Jiangnan is only held by Lu Shilang alone, I'm afraid there are not enough people, the minister proposed to let Su University go down to Jiangnan to help Lu Shilang treat the disaster together, so that he can make a contribution, I don't know what your colleagues think of this method?" ”
As he spoke, he deliberately glanced back at the generals behind him, who immediately lowered their heads and did not dare to speak.
A smile flashed in Jin Yantang's dark eyes, and then, his indifferent voice sounded on the dragon chair: "I think this method is good, just do what Shang Aiqing said!" ”
