Chapter 50

Approaching the dinner, Emperor Yongdi came out of the Palace of Self-Nourishing Heart, and after picking up Qu Muge, he went to the Jiaotai Hall where the banquet was held.

In the Jiaotai Palace, the silk and bamboo are ringing, the Yayin is echoing, and the royal relatives are all in place, waiting for the arrival of the main master.

Qu Muge followed behind Emperor Yongdi with a dignified manner, and sat down at the small table next to the dragon chair, everyone's eyes fell on her, some curious, some amazed, and some suspicious.

Emperor Yong knocked the golden spoon twice on the wine bottle, and the music immediately stopped.

Emperor Yongdi inspected everyone for a week and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, I am holding a family banquet today to tell you good news!" I have found my daughter who has been lost for many years! In the Conway Rebellion, Concubine Wen died in the war and gave birth to a princess before her death, but she was taken away and disappeared. Fortunately, I and the princess have been blessed by the emperor, and the princess is still in court today, I am very pleased, so I share this good news with all the secretaries! ”

Emperor Yongdi turned his head to look at Qu Muge and said, "Ge'er, come, I've seen all my relatives." ”

Gonggong Hu sang and said: "Princess Taixuan Li Muge, see the ceremony." ”

Qu Muge got up, respectfully walked to the dragon chair, and saluted to the people sitting in the hall.

After the ceremony, the clan relatives got up together and said, "Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the princess!" ”

Emperor Yongdi raised his glass with satisfaction and said, "All the ministers drink this cup together!" ”

Qu Muge returned to his seat and sat down, secretly looking at everyone, everything was so smooth and calm, why didn't anyone make trouble?

After the opening toast, Concubine Xian toasted separately and said: "Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor, the pearl has been lost, it can be seen that the emperor and the princess have been favored by God, which is really the blessing of Yongguo." The concubine gave the emperor another glass. ”

Emperor Yong smiled and drank the wine.

Concubine Xian said: "The concubine heard that if the princess can be found, the concubine Niangniang will be the first to take the credit, and the concubine will also respect the concubine Niangniang with a cup." ”

It's coming, it's coming, it's coming......

Qu Muge looked at Concubine Xian quietly, waiting for her to continue acting.

Concubine Zuo didn't raise her glass, and said lightly: "Concubine Xian is mistaken, it is the Bai family who found the princess, and it has nothing to do with the palace, and the palace does not dare to take credit." ”

Concubine Xian smiled: "Of course there is the credit of the mother!" The reason why the Bai family went to Jinling was to investigate the case of Zuo Yushi, if it weren't for Zuo Yushi's case involving old cases, how could they find out that Princess Taixuan was still alive? Speaking of which, who took the princess back then? Now that the princess has been found, the sinners of the year should also have eyebrows, right? ”

Zuo Guifei didn't speak, and everyone didn't make a sound.

Concubine Xian was attacking Zuo Guifei every word, and it seemed that she wanted to take advantage of Princess Taixuan's matter and step on Zuo Guifei's head again.

Everyone looked at Concubine Zuo, then at the emperor, and finally at Concubine Xian, I don't know who will continue to speak in this meeting.

In the end, it was Zuo Guifei who smiled and said, "Yes, it seems that everyone is very curious about the princess's life experience and experience." Bengong didn't plan to talk about this at today's banquet, but since Concubine Xian asked, Bengong had to give everyone an explanation. ”

With a handkerchief in her hand, she turned sideways to Feicui and said, "Go, bring someone up." ”

After the order, she stood up, walked to the middle of the main hall, saluted Emperor Yong respectfully, and said: "Your Majesty, the concubine has been in charge of the harem on behalf of Fengyin for many years, and has dealt with many difficult things, but now she has encountered a case, and I don't know what to do. A few days ago, someone sounded the drum of Dali Temple, accusing someone of pretending to be the emperor's heir, because it was a matter of royal face, Dali Temple did not dare to make a noise, so he could only quietly find the palace to discuss. The palace knows very well that there are rumors inside and outside the palace now, and the concubines should no longer get into trouble and meddle in this matter. But the royal heir is the top priority in the harem, and the concubines dare not let go of any suspicion, since the emperor, the princess and all the clan relatives are gathered together today, it is better to break this mystery case together. If the suspicion is confirmed, the traitors can be eliminated and the royal bloodline can be orthodox; If the suspicion is cleared, it is good to give the princess and the palace a clean slate. ”

Concubine Xian and Concubine Guifei made a move and made a judgment.

Concubine Xian directly attacked Zuo Guifei, and if she couldn't do a single blow, it was easy to hurt herself. But Zuo Guifei just threw out questions and asked everyone to decide together, whether she succeeds or not, she can get a good reputation, which is really high!

Qu Muge really wanted to applaud Zuo Guifei.

The palace maid Feicui brought a man up from outside the hall, and Qu Muge recognized it from a distance, it was Ye Taohua's cheap father, Ye Dian.

Missing for many months, it is really in the hands of Zuo Guifei!

Outsiders came to the hall, and Gu Nanye walked in in the name of a guard and stood beside Emperor Yong.

Emperor Yong's face sank and asked, "Who is in the palace?" ”

Ye Dian knelt on the ground in fear, not daring to raise his head: "Small, villain Ye Dian." ”

Zuo Guifei took two steps to his side and said, "Ye Dian, who and what are you suing in Dali Temple, now in front of the emperor, you say it again." ”

"The villain, the villain's daughter Ye Taohua, pretending to be a princess......"

There were discussions in the hall, and they all looked at Qu Muge.

Qu Muge stood up from his seat and walked in front of Ye Dian.

"You look up at me." Qu Muge said without hurry.

Ye Dian raised his head helplessly and looked at the girl in front of him.

Qu Muge asked, "Tell me, who am I and what is my relationship with you?" ”

Ye Dian had a moment of doubt.

The girl wore a brocade gown and a jeweled crown on her head, calmly and even smiling at him.

Is this really the leaf peach blossom he raised? But I haven't seen you for half a year, how can it be like a different person?

He wouldn't really recognize the wrong person, would he?

Ye Dian didn't speak for a while, Zuo Guifei frowned, but she didn't dare to show her dissatisfaction obviously, so she could only remind and ask, "Is this your biological daughter?" ”

"Yes...... Be. ”

"Then you tell the emperor clearly, why did your daughter pretend to be a princess?" Zuo Guifei guided.

Ye Dian said: "We are ordinary people in Jinling Hongye Village, half a year ago, there were suddenly some soldiers in the village, they paid a lot of money to buy my daughter, I am a responsible person, I dare not sell women, who knows that those soldiers snatched my daughter away, and killed my family!" ”

"Huh." Suddenly, a gloomy sneer came from the hall, and Gu Nanye spoke and asked, "I was the one who ordered the killing of your whole family, are you talking about me?" ”

Ye Dian was a little panicked, he hadn't seen Gu Nanye, and the person who Zuo Guifei had arranged for him to identify before didn't seem to be like him.

Zuo Guifei was a little surprised, she didn't expect Gu Nanye to find trouble for herself.

Qu Muge didn't want to cause extra trouble to Gu Nanye, so he took over and said, "Concubine Zuo brought him up, presumably because she wanted him to confront me, in this case, I have a few questions, I want to ask him, so that everyone can comment on it." ”

Without waiting for Zuo Guifei and Ye Dian to agree, Qu Muge asked: "Since you say that I am your daughter, then you must know how old I am this year, and what year and month I was born?" ”

Ye Dian said: "You are thirteen years old this year, and you were born in March of the fifth year of Conway. ”

It was the month of Concubine Wen's death.
