Chapter 24: Freedom
Lin Qi's face turned pale, as if he was frightened, and hurriedly said, "The concubine doesn't dare to say it", and lowered his head.
The emperor was completely impatient, kicked over the dwarf, and said coldly: "Don't dare to say anything, I want you to say it, just say it!" ”
Lin Qi trembled, knelt on the ground, and said in a trembling voice: "The concubine obeys the order." ”
"Today, it is rumored that the second prince wants to put his husband to death everywhere, the purpose is to eradicate dissidents, and he has long had no brotherhood in his heart, and it is said that his husband's legs and arms are all abolished because of the second prince."
Hearing such unconcealed words, a layer of cold sweat broke out behind Li Rugui, who was following the emperor.
Before he could stop Lin Qi, the emperor was already furious: "Bastard, do you know what you're talking about!" ”
"Your Majesty, the concubines don't dare to say it......" Lin Qi was aggrieved and hurriedly closed his mouth.
"Stop, go on!" The emperor calmed down, pinched his eyebrows, and waved his hand.
Lin Qi glanced at Jun Yeming, who was quietly pretending to be sick, and added: "My husband has always respected the second prince, but now that he has been awakened by the rumors, he realizes that this is just a joke. ”
"Now that my husband's legs and arms are damaged, he is already a waste, so he naturally doesn't want to live...... Woo, husband, your life is so miserable......" After Lin Qi finished speaking, he hid his face and cried.
Jun Yeming watched her act, and couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth.
"Your Majesty, don't be too anxious, Your Highness didn't think about it for a while, did you say it, princess?"
Li Rugui was afraid that the emperor would be angry, so he hurriedly looked at Lin Qi and made a look.
Lin Qi turned his head and pretended not to see it.
Thinking of Jun Yeming's damaged arm, the emperor's heart gradually became clear, and his eyes showed deep regret and anger. If your legs are broken, you can still write the national policy by hand, and now even the most important right arm is crippled, no wonder the fourth child is like this.
"This second child is so bold, I really want to discipline him well!"
The emperor was so angry that his chest rose and fell violently, and he wanted to take this matter lightly for the sake of the queen's face, but now it seems that it may not work!
Seeing that he had already provoked the emperor's anger, Lin Qi glanced at Jun Yeming, and simply took advantage of the victory to pursue: "Your Majesty, my husband has been disabled in both legs these years, and it has been very difficult to live in the palace, so it is better to go out of the palace, so as not to be harmed by those open guns and hidden arrows." ”
The Emperor frowned and did not immediately agree.
Jun Yeming on the bed coughed a few times at the right time, his right arm hung softly at his side, struggled to sit up with his left hand supporting his body, and whispered in embarrassment: "Qi'er, don't embarrass your father." ”
Seeing this, the emperor couldn't help but feel a little sympathetic in his heart.
Leaving the Chaolu Palace, the emperor lowered his face coldly and hurriedly drove the Fengqi Palace.
"Your Majesty, why are you here?" When the empress saw the emperor, she smiled charmingly.
She knew that the emperor still liked her mother and son the most.
"It just so happens that dinner is being passed in the palace, and the emperor will also come to eat together." The Empress dragged the Emperor to the dining room.
"Here, here's your favorite dish." The queen put a few crystal shrimp into the emperor's bowl, and didn't notice that the emperor was in a bad mood today, but just said to herself: "Your Majesty! Xuan'er was punished, and he didn't eat for a whole day today, aren't you, the father, distressed? ”
"I just grounded him, not to ask him to go on a hunger strike." The emperor frowned and said, "He doesn't eat, you don't know how to take care of it?" ”
"Xuan'er, he is thin-skinned, you don't know, you grounded him indiscriminately, what do others think of him?" The queen said reluctantly: "How should the ministers of the entire court view him?" Maybe you think he's really done cannibalism! ”
"Your Majesty, just look at the face of your concubines and spare Xuan'er this time!"
The crown prince was deposed, the fourth child was disabled, and now the second prince has the best chance of ascending to the throne of the prince. And the prince naturally can't be virtuous.
The emperor pressed his temples, and the queen was holding the royal heirs thin and arrogant.
"What the queen said is very true." The emperor suppressed the coolness in his eyes and said in a cold voice: "It's because I haven't thought it through, and even so, it's time to cancel the second child's grounding." ”
Before the Empress could rejoice, she heard the Emperor continue: "But there is one more thing I have to tell you. ”
"The fourth child is now crippled, and staying in the palace is in vain, so it is better to ask him to leave the palace and establish a mansion and be crowned an idle prince."
When the queen heard this, she subconsciously wanted to stop it.
That Jun Night Shadow is no ordinary person. If you detain him in the palace, you can suppress him everywhere, and once you are released from the palace, I am afraid that I will not be able to control him anymore!
"Your Majesty, think twice!"
"Huh? What does the queen think is wrong? The emperor looked at the queen coldly and said: "I am also planning for the second child, now everyone thinks that the second child is the murderer who hurt the fourth child, if the fourth child continues to stay in the palace, what accidents will happen in the future, everyone thinks that the second child did it, do you hope so?" ”
The emperor looked at him lightly, and the queen was dumbfounded.
The emperor agreed to lift Xuan'er's grounding, and also considered Xuan'er from the bottom of his heart. If she objected, she didn't know what to do.
What's more, letting that waste out of the palace and be crowned king shows that the emperor has long thought that he is not qualified to be a prince in his heart.
Thinking like this, the queen's face improved slightly, and she grabbed the emperor's arm with a smile and said, "Since the emperor has thought about it, the concubine naturally has no opinion." ”
On the other side, in the Chaolu Palace, listening to the news from the secret guard, Lin Qi couldn't help but smile.
"Hahaha, we're finally free!" Lin Qi clapped his hands, got up and clipped a chicken leg for Jun Yeming, and said boldly: "Come, eat a chicken leg to celebrate!" ”
Jun Yeming chuckled, "So happy? ”
"So what's not? Talking back and forth with the queen all day long, I'm tired to death! Lin Qi rolled his eyes.
After eating, Lin Qi couldn't stay idle, cleaned up the things in the room, and found that what she could take away was the clothes and pearls that Jun Yeming gave her.
Lin Qi didn't plan to bring some miscellaneous things from the original owner, so he just threw them here, they were all worthless things anyway.
Early the next morning, Li Rugui, who was beside the emperor, came to the Chaolu Hall to read the holy decree, and the emperor named Jun Yeming as the king of Bei'an, and also rewarded a good mansion in the suburbs of Beijing to Jun Yeming as the palace in the future.
After thanking him, according to the etiquette system, it was time to leave the palace immediately.
Lin Qi carried his small baggage, and helped Jun Ye Ming into the carriage with great interest, then bent his lips, lifted the curtain and looked out of the window.
Jun Yeming didn't have much feeling about leaving the palace and establishing a mansion, but seeing Lin Qi so excited, he couldn't help but smile a little.
"Drive!" The coachman shouted, and the carriage rolled along.
The boundless vermilion walls and green tiles, and the deep palace houses, are gradually left behind the two.
