Chapter 517: A Grace
At this time, Li Zhao didn't know what was going on, he just thought that the emperor invited him to Xianfu Palace for tea, but when he came, he saw such a scene, his sister squatted on the ground, and it was inevitable that he was a little distressed, but he didn't know where he offended Wei Yuqin, so he respectfully arched his hand and asked: "Your Majesty, I don't know what mistakes Xian'er has made, why do you treat her like this?" ”
Wei Yuqin was sitting in the courtyard, the troupe had already stopped, and he only heard him scolding: "Hehe, what mistake did you make?" Why don't you let her tell you for herself? ”
At this time, Concubine Xian was on the verge of collapse, and the disheveled male pet was tied to the side, Li Zhao looked up and saw the male pet kneeling on the ground without saying a word, looking at the confused appearance as if he had been poisoned by love, he turned his head and looked at his sister again, and asked: "Xian'er, are you privately pampering the male pet in vain to ignore the rules and regulations of the palace?" ”
Concubine Xian didn't answer him, but saw Li Zhao squatting in front of Concubine Xian with a red face, shaking her vigorously and shouting: "Say it quickly, have you done something ugly to be sorry for the emperor?" Isn't it? ”
Su Xiaoman saw that Concubine Xian's expression was detached, and he didn't want to say anything, so he stepped forward and said: "Let me tell you, General Li, your sister is also the emperor's favored concubine, not only only spoiling the male favorite, but also poisoning and murdering the queen's mother, all these incriminating evidence are in front of him, if General Li doesn't believe it, this person's physical evidence is there!" ”
Syllable......
Hearing Su Xiaoman say this, Li Zhao slowly stood up from the ground, slapped Concubine Xian's face fiercely, and reprimanded: "You really disappointed my brother!" ”
Concubine Xian covered her cheeks, tears flowed from the corners of her eyes, and whispered: "Yes, I disappointed my brother, but so what, I married the emperor on the same day as her, why is she the queen, and I am just a virtuous concubine, how many people laugh at me, all these years I have swallowed my anger just to one day get back my position, in this deep palace inner courtyard, how many harem beauties are there in the emperor, why can men have three wives and four concubines, but women can't, why should women have to start from the beginning, but men can be water-based Yanghua, why!" ”
Everyone looked at the crying Concubine Xian in surprise, and was very stunned by what she said, but Su Xiaoman thought that Concubine Xian's idea was too extreme, and explained: "Women are not because of men from the beginning, but because of themselves, only by cherishing themselves, others will cherish you, and now you are willing to fall, but you take such a depraved thing for granted, you are not losing the emperor's face, you are losing your own face, have you ever thought about how your brother will behave in the court from now on, Don't you know how he will be implicated in you? ”
Concubine Xian wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, stood up and said: "If it weren't for your appearance, how could I be so embarrassed in this game of chess, if it weren't for you, she Zheng Rongying would have died in Huangquan a long time ago, how could you criticize this palace here, what are you!" ”
Now Concubine Xian still looked around at everyone around her with unrepentant eyes, and said with a sneer: "Hahaha, I was going to light the moon with my heart, but the bright moon shines on the ditch, I have a deep affection for you, but you can't feel my feelings for you at all, what are you?" Does your heart still exist? No! Your heart doesn't exist, now that I'm a bad move, everything you say is right, what do I have to say, if you want to kill, you have to listen to it! ”
Wei Yuqin didn't have her in his heart, if she recruited from the truth, maybe it would just be a sentence to be sent to the cold palace, after all, Li Zhao had a life-saving grace for him, if he hadn't saved Wei Yuqin three times back then, how could Li Zhao be the Kaiyuan general now, but Concubine Xian didn't care about his face at all, even if she committed such a serious crime, she still didn't repent, and her attitude was extremely bad for Wei Yuqin.
Syllable......
Wei Yuqin, who was holding a teacup in her hand, trembled from time to time, because she made him angry, a teacup was violently slammed to the ground, debris splashed everywhere, and a roar of rage: "Death without repentance, good, since your heart has been decided, then I will fulfill you, come and take away the title of Concubine Xian will be a common person, and you can be sent to the prison of Xingtian!" ”
Listening to Wei Yuqin's decision, Li Zhao was stunned, the Xingtian Prison is a place where the heinous felons are held, and the prison is not imprisoned by killers who destroy people's families, or traitors who have dozens of lives in their hands, and even those Jiangyang thieves who burn, kill and loot are among them, if his sister is escorted to the Xingtian Prison, it is estimated that she will die in prison before the day of execution.
Li Zhao hurriedly stepped forward: "Ask the emperor for mercy, although Xian'er poisoned the queen, but the queen is still standing here unharmed, if Xian'er goes to the Xingtian prison, it will die violently in a few days, please Emperor Kane!" ”
Hearing this, even the pearl standing on the side couldn't stand it anymore, glanced at him and sneered: "Isn't it a felony to poison the queen and not be able to have children for five years?" Isn't it a felony to fornicate with a male pet, all crimes can be copied and beheaded all over the house, and you dare to ask the emperor for mercy, you're afraid that your brain is in water! ”
As soon as the words fell, I saw Su Xiaoman raise his eyebrows and glance at Pearl, and Pearl didn't continue to speak, but Li Zhao didn't think so, his sister still had to fight to protect her, so in Su Xiaoman's opinion, his request was also a matter of course, but looking at Wei Yuqin's expression, it seemed that he didn't accept this request, after all, murdering the queen is a serious crime, and disturbing the palace should be executed, so he scolded angrily: "Rao? How do you ask me to forgive her? If you look at her now, it is said that she poured musk poison on the queen as early as when she married me, and it is not a pity for such a scheming woman to die a hundred times! ”
At the moment when he knew that Wei Yuqin had completely lost his heart to his sister, Li Zhao immediately knelt on the ground, his nose unconsciously sour: "Your Majesty, I have been dependent on Xian'er since childhood, she is my only relative, even though she has tens of thousands of not, but she is still the minister's most beloved sister, if the emperor is unwilling to spare Xian'er's life, then Weichen will ask the emperor to see the previous Weichen's three rescues, please give the emperor a favor!" ”
In order to exonerate Concubine Xian, Li Zhao can be regarded as his last straw, but Zheng Rongying is the person who swallows this breath so easily, Wei Yuqin takes into account the political situation in the court, and currently needs a heroic general like Li Zhao to be the vanguard of the sulfur abyss.
Zheng Rongying looked at Wei Yuqin's somewhat hesitant appearance, and hurriedly said: "I don't know what kind of grace General Li wants, if Concubine Xian continues to stay in Xianfu Palace to enjoy the emperor's favor, wouldn't he not take this palace in his eyes, and this emperor's green hat is probably going to spread all over the world." ”
Hearing Zheng Rongying himself suddenly say this, Su Xiaoman pursed his lips and smiled slightly, it is not a loss to be the queen of today, and she has more than enough to advance and retreat without losing her majesty.
A green hat pulled Wei Yuqin back to reality, Zheng Rongying was right, if Concubine Xian continued to sit firmly in Xianfu Palace, wouldn't the entire Sulfur Yuan Kingdom become a joke in the mouths of everyone, so how would he be called the emperor, and what would be the emperor's face, and he weighed it for a while and asked: "You say, as long as I can accept it, and the queen can accept it, then I will promise you this grace, but if it is too much, don't blame me for not leaving a trace of mercy!" ”
Wei Yuqin's grace is worth thousands of gold and silver, not to mention whether it can be accepted, Li Zhao also thinks that his sister has done something unforgivable, if the two of them are just ordinary people and this thing happened, then the virtuous concubine will definitely be immersed in the pig cage by the villagers, not to mention, the Li family will be engraved with the word prostitute in the future, and they will never be able to raise their heads.
"Your Majesty, the grace that Weichen wants is just to ask the emperor, the queen's mother Rao Xian'er a small life, even if she is removed from her title and reduced to a commoner, or she will never be able to return to the sulfur abyss, at least she is still alive!"
Listening to her brother begging for mercy for herself like this, Concubine Xian felt very uncomfortable, this grace can be very big or small, but it can't be used on her, and suddenly she figured it out, if Li Zhao really used this grace on herself, then Li Zhao's future career will not be smooth.
"Brother, I don't want any grace, I know it's wrong, I'm willing to accept any punishment, even if I don't have this little life, this grace is my brother, you fought to the death back then, I don't want you to lose a good future for me, even if I die, it won't implicate you!"
Concubine Xian cried and shouted, from the moment Li Zhao began to intercede for her, she was already crying silently, and even Su Xiaoman couldn't stand it anymore, and stepped forward and said: "I knew that this was the case, why bother in the first place, if you stopped it in time, how could it have developed to such a point!" ”
"I know, but I just can't control my heart, my heart is too uncomfortable, I'm blinded by jealousy, I shouldn't be it, my lord, I beg you, you kill me, don't implicate my brother, he doesn't know anything, he doesn't know anything!"
Concubine Xian cried heartbreakingly in front of everyone, Zheng Rongying sighed lightly, and said continuously: "Didn't you think about Yong'er?" He's only three years old! ”
Yong'er is Concubine Xian's only son, although she is three years old, she has already read poetry and books, and has translated words into Chinese, Zheng Rongying's sudden mention made Concubine Xian stunned, yes, she also has a son, what should her Yong'er do now?
In an instant, Concubine Xian's mentality collapsed, as if the sky had fallen, all of this was her own doing, Wei Yu sighed and said: "Okay, I read that you have a meritorious role in giving birth to the emperor's heir, and General Li has saved me from danger many times, I will give you this grace, Concubine Xian took away her title and was reduced to a commoner, and sent to the Qingxiu Temple of Wuji Mountain, and from then on, she cut her hair and was not allowed to go out of the temple for half a step, and repent for the sins she committed for life!" ”
