Chapter 34: The Concubine is Guilty

The emperor was in the imperial study approving the folds, and saw the queen in front of him.

Although Wu Wei is over half white, he still has a rich appearance, not to mention the appearance of a country and a city, but the beauty of the sinking fish and geese back then won the emperor's favor, although it is indispensable to have a bit of beauty.

"Your Majesty, the concubines haven't seen the emperor for many days, thinking that the weather has been hot and cold recently, so I cooked some desserts for the emperor to warm his body." After the queen finished speaking, she asked Mingyue to send her in, and then instructed her to wait outside the palace.

"It's still the queen who feels sorry for me, okay, I'll drink it together to thank the queen." The emperor put down the fold in his hand and approached the queen's side.

"The queen has also lost weight recently, so she has to take care of her body with peace of mind." The emperor and the queen have been respectful to each other for many years, and naturally they are also in love, this husband and wife are one duty, not to mention that they are still the son of heaven who is sympathetic to the people and integrates the world.

"Queen, have something to talk to me about today? Or is it just a special trip to visit me? "The emperor understands that under normal circumstances, the queen does not go to the palace, presumably this should be something to discuss.

"Exactly." The queen looked around.

"Let's all go down first." The emperor ordered the surrounding maids and guards to leave together.

He was the only one in the entire study.

The queen helped the emperor to sit on one side, and she sat down herself.

"Your Majesty, do you remember the concubine back then?" When she said this, her eyes never took off his face, and she had to watch her words so as not to anger the saint.

"Lady? It's been so many years, she's gone, how can the queen mention this today? The emperor also has a little affection for Concubine Shu, but because her maternal brother betrayed the court and never had children with her, she naturally didn't have too many thoughts.

Seeing that the emperor was not angry, the queen must still have some true feelings for Concubine Shu. He immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, please forgive your concubine for the crime of recklessness." ”

When the emperor saw this, he didn't know why the queen did this for a while: "Queen, get up quickly, what are you guilty of?" This kneeling made me panic. Quick, get up. ”

"Your Majesty, the concubine is guilty, please ask the emperor to listen to the concubine's words before making a decision." The queen kept kneeling and refused to get up.

"But it doesn't hurt to say it, but it doesn't hurt to say it." The emperor has always trusted her, and naturally he will not easily blame her, he has seen the power of his mother in the world all these years, virtue and conduct, which are all first-class, and he has never done anything that makes him feel excessive.

"In the process of the concubine's narration, if there is anything that offends the emperor, please ask the emperor to punish the crime." She thought to herself, this is a heavy responsibility entrusted to several families, this may end up in the crime of bullying the king, or it may implicate the lives of many people, of course she can't be careless, naturally she has to be careful.

"The queen is serious, over the years, the world has been peaceful, the queen has governed the harem in an orderly manner, and it is my blessing to have the queen, please say, even if there is anything wrong, how can I blame the queen." With this sentence, the queen's heart can be regarded as a little relieved.

"Your Majesty, in fact, Concubine Shu did not die in childbirth, but died of excessive blood loss after giving birth, and the people in the palace have concealed it to this day, and the son born that year is still alive." She spoke slowly, slowly remembering what she had heard that day.

"What do you say? Queen, don't talk nonsense, back then, Grandpa Sun personally told me that Concubine Shu died due to dystocia, and the son born to him also went with him, he was my confidant, how dare he deceive me? "The emperor is like five thunderbolts, not to mention whether Sun Gonggong's words are true or false, this queen is her own pillow person, and she doesn't dare to make it up.

"Your Majesty!" She saw the emperor's face change suddenly, and thought to herself that if she insisted on saying it again, she might not be able to do it. She had to wait for him to ask her to do so before she continued.

"Queen, are you unfounded or unfounded? How do you make me believe your word? What's more, the concubine's family was still punished by me for the nine clans?

You...... This......? He didn't want to listen to her babbling anymore.

"Grandpa Sun." The emperor roared.

As soon as Grandpa Sun entered the house and saw the queen kneeling on the ground, he was also frightened, and quickly knelt down, thinking that he had made a big mistake.

"You...... You guys? Seeing this, the emperor knelt down and made the emperor mistakenly think that the queen's words were true. He wondered what had happened.

"The minister is afraid, the minister doesn't know what mistake the queen has made, and I don't know what mistake the minister has made?" Grandpa Sun was also frightened before kneeling.

"Grandpa Sun, is what the queen said true? Is the son born to Concubine Shu still alive? And the son born to Concubine Shu is not the one you told me to have died? Come on and tell the truth. "The emperor was furious, but he didn't know that after so many years, he didn't take him as the son of heaven in his eyes and concealed it so far?

Grandpa Sun was a little stunned by the question, he knelt on the ground and didn't dare to move, his body was shivering with cold.

"The emperor forgives the sins, the emperor forgives the sins! The minister didn't know about this, and he didn't hear that the son of the concubine was still alive, what the minister saw with his own eyes back then was one corpse and two lives, how could he deceive the king? The minister is actually frightened, and he hopes that the saint will decide. He told the truth, and at this time the emperor realized that Grandpa Sun was just frightened, not disloyal to him.

"Grandpa Sun, what you said is true?"

"Your Majesty, the minister guarantees his life, and everything the minister says is true, how dare the minister deceive the emperor?" He was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, and he was also like a headless fly for what the emperor asked.

The emperor looked at him and said fiercely: "You don't dare!" ”

"Queen, what the hell is going on? You will tell me one by one, and if there is any falsehood, I will kill you. "After all, this is a matter related to the blood of the royal family, who is so bold as to dare to deceive him.

The queen was also frightened by his angry words, her hands kept trembling, speaking of which, she was indeed a little bolder, but if she didn't do this, how could she protect the son of the concubine, after all, it was also a life, let alone a prince.

"The concubine also did this as a last resort, please let the emperor know, the concubine did not dare to deceive the emperor, I still thought of this decision for the sake of the emperor's life." She can't take care of so much at this time, the trust of several families, the emperor's kindness to her, even if she dies today, she has to tell the emperor the truth.

The emperor is not a faint king, of course he knows the queen's intentions, but after so many years, the emperor should not be left behind, and this is only what he blames.

While the queen spoke, the emperor and Grandpa Sun listened carefully, all the hidden secrets were revealed, and Grandpa Sun was also deceived by the people in the cold palace, and he was also very helpless, but when he heard that the queen and Shangshu, as well as the prince was so benevolent, he also felt a little admiration.

"Hey!" The emperor sighed heavily.

"Queen, Queen, you are so bitter to hide from me." Although he understands the queen's hard work, but after all, he is the Son of Heaven, and he has been deceived by her like this, what face will he have to face the ministers in the future? If you don't punish her, how can you convince the public?

The queen didn't dare to say anything more, thinking to herself, how could she dare to speculate on this holy meaning?

"Come, bring the queen back to the palace for me, be grounded for a month, fasted for a month, and no one will be allowed to approach without my permission."

After hearing this, the queen's heart fell, she couldn't imagine that the emperor was so benevolent, and it was a blessing that she was not beaten into the cold palace, how dare she talk more, this time she finally felt that it was worth it, in exchange for everyone's happiness, and it was not in vain everyone's trust in her.

The queen was taken away, willingly, Grandpa Sun admired the emperor's holy words so much, and felt that he could be by his side in this life, which was the blessing he cultivated.

"Grandpa Sun, you get up, Xuan Xiangguo, Wu Shangshu, the prince and princess and others enter the imperial study."

Gonggong Sun knelt and his legs were weak, but he still used enough strength to get up: "Your Majesty, the minister will do it." ”

The emperor has a son, he is happy, but this cadre has deceived him for all these years, and he is angry. When it comes to merits and faults, he has to check them out one by one and ask them to understand, so he will not dare to happen under his nose in the future, so he promulgates the decree in order to discuss merits and faults, rewards and punishments.

He walked around the room, panicked, neither sitting nor standing, just waiting for everyone to arrive.

"Xuanxiangguo Pilgrimage!"

"The minister takes the order." Xiangguo thought that the emperor had state affairs to discuss, so he didn't ask much.

"Xuanwu Shangshu is here!"

"The minister takes the order." Wu Shangshu understands that sooner or later he can't escape this matter, no, it's coming.

Wu Qiyue saw that the master accepted the order, so he whispered: "Master, I don't know what will happen when I go, no matter what happens to the concubine in the future, she will never leave the master, you can go with confidence." ”

"Madam, don't worry, I believe that the Holy One is not a ruthless person, so you wait in the mansion and relax." When the words fell, he left the house with the people who came.

"Lord Xuan, the princess is here!"

"The ministers will receive the order, thank you father-in-law." The prince held the holy decree in his hands with both hands, but he was trembling.

"Grandpa Sun, did the emperor say anything?" The prince was a little worried.

"The emperor only said that I would announce the decree, and the minister didn't dare to say anything about it. I hope the prince will forgive me. Grandpa Sun turned around after his words fell.

Seeing that the princess and princess did not follow, he turned around and said, "Lord, princess, let's go, what are you waiting for?" ”

"Okay, let's go with my father-in-law." The prince took his wife's hand.

"Let's go, ma'am, whether this is a blessing or a curse, and we can only leave it to fate." He and his wife went out of the house together, and at this time, the little prince had not returned from running errands, and he had no time to order his subordinates, so he could only leave with his grandfather.

In the imperial study, Xiangguo and Shangshu had already arrived first, and they saw the prince and the princess enter the palace.

As soon as they entered the door and saw that Xiangguo and Shangshu had arrived, they also guessed what was going on today.

"Xiangguo, Shangshu is fine."

"Lord, the princess is well."

"The ministers see the emperor, the emperor is safe." Several people said at the same time.

"Get down on your knees!" The emperor was furious, and several people knelt down together, and everyone was frightened.
