Chapter 18: The Crown Princess (18)
The emperor directly asked people to lure Concubine Xian's younger brother to the gambling house, and within a few days, he owed a huge amount of gambling debts.
Now the Cao family is frying.
The huge debt directly shocked the Cao family.
You must know that the previous corruption case has put the Cao family on the cusp.
The ladies in the palace have already warned them that if they make another mistake, don't think about her cleaning up the mess for them again.
learned that the youngest son lost a gamble in the gambling house, and directly locked the two sons at home.
Concubine Xian's father was also a little scared, the eldest son was killed like that, and these two sons couldn't have any more accidents.
On that day, Concubine Xian's mother entered the palace.
Because of the emperor's favor for Concubine Xian, Concubine Xian's mother was allowed to enter the palace at any time to ask for a meeting.
When Concubine Xian learned that her younger brother owed gambling debts, her whole person trembled with anger.
She fights wits and courage in the palace every day, life is difficult, how much has she paid for her mother's family, why does her family always lag behind?
Concubine Xian cried angrily.
Concubine Xian's mother looked distressed and comforted in a low voice.
Concubine Xian is still reluctant to let go of her family after all, if she can't pay off her gambling debts, she is afraid that the things in the family will be moved away, and the house may be sold.
How could she watch her family suffer such a sin?
What's more, most of the people in the capital are watching, she is a virtuous concubine, if her mother's family is down, don't those people think that she is going to be down?
Won't everyone come to her and step on her?
Since Concubine Xian entered the palace and was favored, the most favored person in the palace was Concubine Xian.
The rewards she received from the emperor were innumerable.
Of course, there was more silver and gold in her hands than she could count.
And Concubine Xian also has careful thoughts.
Over the years, many things that could be sold were sold into silver and kept outside the palace just in case.
There are only things left in the palace that cannot be sold.
The emperor originally thought that Concubine Xian's mother would enter the palace, and Concubine Xian would definitely ask him for help.
He has thought about it, and when the time comes, he will definitely vent his evil anger first, which will also make Concubine Xian's heart ache.
He didn't expect that Concubine Xian didn't come to him at all, but on the same day, Concubine Xian's younger brother's gambling debts were indeed repaid.
The emperor sent someone to investigate, and naturally found out some of the whereabouts of Concubine Xian outside the palace.
At this time, the emperor was even more angry.
He only felt that his love for Concubine Xian over the years was like a joke.
For the sake of the virtuous concubine, he almost didn't touch other women in the harem.
But this is how Concubine Xian repaid him?
There is so much silver in private, and it is all placed outside the palace, you must know that his inner treasury is tight, and there has been a shortage of silver many times over the years, but what about Concubine Xian, so much silver, she has never said that she will share her worries for him.
Thinking of this, he thought of Su Fu, no matter how he treated Su Fu, Su Fu had always treated him sincerely, which made the emperor feel much better.
It's just that Su Fu investigated that the top of his head was green, and he was a little uncomfortable in his heart, which made Su Fu see the joke.
How much the emperor loved Concubine Xian before, how much he favored the six princes, and how much he hated them at this time.
However, the flowers sent by the prince are still next to the bookcase, and it is not clear whether the prince is innocent, and the emperor also does not want to pull out the prince to confront the six princes.
And for the crown prince, the emperor has always disliked.
At this time, he also didn't want to raise the prince's heart.
The sixth prince found that his father no longer seemed to summon him recently.
Even many of the rights that were given before are now not being exercised.
How can the six princes be so angry.
went directly to the palace to find Concubine Xian.
Concubine Xian remembered that the emperor didn't seem to come to her palace again during this time, and she felt a little uncomfortable.
Could it be that the emperor has found other goblins?
It seems that there is indeed a young concubine who has been favored recently.
After persuading his son to leave, he thought about some things that had happened recently, could it be that the emperor had also heard about the Cao family, so he was a little displeased?
Concubine Xian thought about it, and still sent her confidant palace maid to bring food to the emperor.
The emperor looked at the herbal tea on the bookcase, thought about it, and decided to go to the palace of the virtuous concubine.
After all, he felt a little uneasy, and the most important thing was that he wanted to test it.
As for this herbal tea, he didn't dare to drink it anymore.
Since learning that he was poisoned, he has also asked Mr. Yun a lot about poisoning.
He really didn't expect that in this world, there are many poisons that don't necessarily fall into things that can be seen.
For example, in herbal tea, it may be clean, but if it comes into contact with other things, it may work, and I don't know how to poison it.
Naturally, the Imperial Physician couldn't detect where the poison had been applied.
Thinking of this, the emperor felt that those imperial doctors were all a bunch of waste, if there was Yunmo's means, how could he be poisoned for so long.
It is precisely because of this that all the things of the emperor recently have been obtained by the people around him.
Not to mention the things sent by Concubine Xian, it was other things, and he couldn't wait for Mr. Yun to be by his side every day to help keep an eye on them.
Not long after, the emperor went to the palace of the virtuous concubine.
The emperor has not been in the harem for some time, originally saw that the virtuous concubine was snubbed, and there were also new concubines who were favored, and many palace concubines were still looking forward to it.
Concubine Xian, the moment she saw the emperor, she immediately smiled.
Concubine Xian has always known that the emperor loves her smile the most, the pear vortex smiles lightly, her eyes are shining, and the emperor will kiss her eyes at this time, but today, the emperor did not do this, and Concubine Xian sighed in her heart.
After the imperial concubine sat down, she chatted a few words, and then the emperor walked to the window.
He looked at the pot of unusually bewitching flowers, and the anger in his heart rose slowly.
Then he picked up the kettle and seemed to water the flowers.
Concubine Xian walked over: "Your Majesty, I have already watered it today." You see, this flower grows really well, but it's a pity that the flower has a regular blooming day, no one is young, and the concubines are already old. ”
The emperor looked at Concubine Xian and suddenly smiled: "Does Concubine Ai feel that she is old?" yes, I'm getting old, too. ”
The emperor seemed stunned, and when he turned around, he brought his hand to the flower pot, and the flower was carried directly to the ground.
At this time, the emperor seemed to be frightened, and the person walked a few steps, and the delicate flowers were directly crushed by the emperor.
Concubine Xian was stunned, and then her face was full of distress.
This flower was the only thing he gave her, and she had been taking care of it all these years, and she was afraid that it would not survive.
However, this flower is famous in the Northern Regions, representing loyal love, because this flower can not decay all year round and can be raised for a lifetime.
In the Northern Regions, if this flower is raised, it will be taken away after death.
But at this time, the flower was trampled to pieces.
