Chapter 068: Confrontation in front of the emperor, there is no limit to favoring
Facing Xuanyuan's extremely sharp questions and the momentum of intimidating the Quartet, Mu Jinchen shrank for a moment.
Emperor Jing frowned imperceptibly.
Mu Jinchen said: "Uncle Huang, the prince is not dead. He's cheating me to death! β
"If it weren't for Miss Gu's timely rescue, the prince would have died a long time ago." Empress Li roared.
"Gu Qingluo?" Mu Jinchen was stunned.
It turned out that she lifted the poison of "soul punishment" for Mu Jinshu?
Emperor Jing was also surprised: "Miss Gu still knows the art of ambiguity?" β
"Back to the emperor, it was the secret antidote pill of Baimei Villa, which saved the prince by mistake." Empress Lee said.
Mu Jinchen is going crazy!
It's Gu Qingluo again!
This woman wanted to get out of the marriage, and he fulfilled her.
If he wants Zhou Ji Buzhuang, he won't fight with her.
Why is she still going against him at every turn?
"That's a blessing for the prince." Emperor Jing stroked his beard, and his expression changed rapidly.
The king's heart is unpredictable, and Queen Li is sad and indignant: the prince's life was on the verge last night, and the emperor didn't take a look. Now that there are human and material evidence, does the emperor still favor King Rui?
Just because of her, she killed the jade concubine with strange arts?
"Please ask the emperor to be the master of the crown prince!" Empress Li knelt down, no matter how uncomfortable she was, she had to maintain the image of the mother of the country.
Emperor Jing asked, "King Rui, you said, did you do this?" β
"It's not."
Mu Jinchen was obedient and listened, and immediately realized that his father wanted to favor him, so he denied it loudly.
Empress Li was so angry that her blood surged: "Your Majesty! β
Emperor Jing raised his hand and motioned for her not to interject.
Empress Li had to continue to endure it.
"Your Majesty, is it really He Qinlan who came back from the dead?" Xuanyuan Ji and Emperor Jing face to face.
One is the king of a country, and the other is a king with a different surname who holds a lot of power, with an age difference of twenty-seven years.
Emperor Jing is forty-three years old this year, and his temples are dyed with snow.
And Xuanyuan Ji is when he is young and strong.
Emperor Jing looked at Xuanyuan Ji and sighed: It's good to be young, it's good to be young, and it's good to look at it.
It's a pity that you can't turn back time, and you don't look back when you're old.
"Mrs. He is the only daughter under her knees, I heard that she has been so sick recently that she can't get out of bed, if He Qinlan is lucky enough to survive from the Taiye Pool, she will definitely show up." Emperor Jing stroked his beard and pondered, "This shouldn't have been done by her. β
"The emperor is wise!" Empress Li breathed a sigh of relief.
Emperor Jing said again: "If you say that this matter is directed and acted by the prince himself...... It's not impossible. β
Empress Li's face froze again.
"Is that him and Gu Qingluo acting?" Xuanyuan asked, his cold tone was as good as ever, and he couldn't hear joy or anger.
Empress Li's heart hung in the air: Will the emperor wronged the Gu family? Will it?
Mu Jinchen was looking forward to it and said, "Father, there have been rumors in Beijing recently that the prince wants to take Gu Qingluo as a concubine. Erchen suspected that they had already conspired together. β
"Nonsense!" Empress Li scolded angrily, "Miss Gu was arrested by the palace and taken to the Prince's Mansion." β
"Catch?" Emperor Jing was surprised.
Empress Li said: "At first, the concubines also thought that Gu Qingluo was plotting to kill the prince for King Rui, so she specially sent poisoned Xuezhi grass. It wasn't until Gu Qingluo reminded the concubine that there was a spy in the prince's mansion and detoxified the prince, that the concubine let her go. β
"There is such an inside story?" Emperor Jing raised his eyebrows, seemingly embarrassed.
And Xuanyuan Ji heard that Gu Qingluo was arrested in the middle of the night, and anger swelled in his chest.
Damn, they went to disturb a pregnant woman in the middle of the night!
But he encountered the full moon last night, and he couldn't control his poisonous hair, so he couldn't save her......
Fortunately, Gu Qingluo saved himself, otherwise he might wake up today and face one corpse and three lives!
Thinking of this, Xuanyuan trembled, and intense fear and sadness spread from the bottom of his heartβno, it must not be like that again!
"Your Majesty!"
Xuanyuan Ji suddenly knelt down, "King Rui has set up a private poison room, in addition to having a large number of poisons in southern Xinjiang, there are also Gu worms. The younger brother suspects that King Rui has the intention of rebellion! β
Emperor Jing's face changed greatly, and his gaze immediately became vigilant when he looked at Mu Jinchen.
"Father, the son has no such heart......" Mu Jinchen was taken aback by Xuanyuan Ji's remarks.
Xuanyuan Ji said: "Dongzhou has always looked down on those despicable methods in southern Xinjiang the most, and even did not accept people from southern Xinjiang into Dongzhou. King Rui secretly colluded with southern Xinjiang to breed poisonous insects and poisons, and his heart was really suspicious! β
"Mu Jinchen!" Emperor Jing was furious.
Since ancient times, emperors have been suspicious, and their suspicions are like a fish in their throats.
Even his favorite son is no exception!
"Father, son-in-law does not. Those things were left by He Qinlan, and Erchen didn't know where she got them, let alone when she built a drug room in the mansion. Mu Jinchen secretly screamed in his heart, but he still insisted on the original words.
"I don't know anything about my own house, how can I help the prince calm the world in the future?" Xuanyuan asked.
Mu Jinchen: .........
Hey, is Uncle Huang crazy today? Everything is against him!
At this moment, the Taifu came with a group of officials: "The minister implores the emperor to thoroughly investigate the poisoning of the prince, don't let go of the poisoner!" β
"The Qi family governs the country and the world, and the family affairs are uneven, why should the world be peaceful? Please the emperor's holy judgment! β
ββ¦β¦β
The persecution of the officials made Emperor Jing very unhappy.
But he also recognized a truth: Mu Jinchen's ability did not meet his expectations.
Alas, if the prince has someone like Xuanyuan Ji, why can't he get the East Palace?
Unfortunately not.
"Your Majesty! Emperor! β
The earnest urging of the officials made Emperor Jing upset.
Looking at Mu Jinchen, who had caused a big disaster but only knew how to lower his head for protection, he was even more angry, and roared irritably: "Come on, drag King Rui down and reflect on it!" β
"Your Majesty, is it just introspection?" Empress Li couldn't believe her ears, "The crown prince almost died!" β
Emperor Jing said depressedly: "There are still doubts about this matter, and it cannot be completely proved that it was done by King Rui." β
Mu Jinchen secretly breathed a sigh of relief: Father still loves him!
At this moment, the eunuch came to report: "Your Majesty! The prince asks to see! β
"Prince?" Empress Li hurriedly got up and rushed out, "The prince has just detoxified and his body is weak, why is the heavy snow still coming?" β
As soon as the door of the hall opened, Mu Jinshu staggered in with a white face: "Father, the son has a book to play!" β
Emperor Jing's eyes flashed with disgust, and he quickly covered it up, and blamed: "As the prince of a country, the prince doesn't care for his body at all, so how can I feel embarrassed?" β
"Father, please take a look at this corruption account book first." Mu Jinshu took out the corruption account book.
Mu Jinchen's face changed greatly.
Xuanyuan Ji frowned, and personally took the corruption account book and presented it to Emperor Jing.
As soon as Emperor Jing looked through the accounts, his whole person was not good: "Okay, you Mu Jinchen, you actually sell illicit salt, buy and sell officials!" β
"Father, son-in-law has no ......" Mu Jinchen's voice was obviously lacking in confidence.
God, how could this account book fall into Mu Jinshu's hands?
He searched for a long time without a clue, and suddenly appeared. As soon as he appeared, he was the emperor, didn't he want his life?
