Chapter 183: Tell me in person
Such a big thing happened in the palace, and the ministers of the court were not deaf or blind, so they naturally noticed it, especially those who were in the same boat as the King of Qi.
This night was a sleepless night for many people, except for Lu Yuning, after King Qi was captured, she fell asleep in the side hall with peace of mind.
When I woke up, it was already the second day, Lu Yuning stretched and sat up from the bed, Qingzhi brought a cup of warm water, Lu Yuning drank two sips and handed the cup to Qingzhi, and asked, "Has the emperor gone to court?" ”
King Qi has been arrested, Luo Chengjing should no longer need to continue pretending to be poisoned, she can also pack up her things and go back to her Linglong Pavilion.
Qingzhi took the cup and shook her head, "No, the emperor is still in the palace." ”
"Did the emperor go to the court?" Lu Yuning was surprised, she originally thought that Luo Chengjing had gone to the court, so she indulged herself to sleep for a while, if she knew that Luo Chengjing did not go to the court, she would definitely have to get up early.
Lu Yuning looked at Qingzhi reproachfully: "Why didn't you wake me up earlier?" ”
Qingzhi was aggrieved, "Master, the slave and maid called you, but you opened your eyes and glanced at the slave and maid, and said that you should let the slave and maid not quarrel with you, and you have to sleep for a while, just when the emperor came over, knowing that you have not woken up yet, and also said that the slave and maid should not wake you up, so the slave and maid did not continue to call you." ”
Otherwise, even if Lu Yuning said that, Qingzhi would continue to wake Lu Yuning up.
Lu Yuning listened to what Qingzhi said, thought about it carefully, and remembered that Qingzhi seemed to have indeed called her. 、
During this time, although she couldn't see it on the surface when she stayed in Jianzhang Palace, she actually had a string in her heart all the time.
Maybe after last night's incident, thinking that she would be able to meet Linglong Pavilion today, her tight string was loosened, and she would sleep so dead in the morning.
The emperor may also know that he didn't let Qingzhi call her in the morning.
Thinking like this, Lu Yuning didn't continue to entangle, anyway, it was already late, and it was useless to entangle.
But since the emperor hasn't gone to the court yet, she has to quickly pack up and go to the emperor to show up.
After washing and dressing up, Lu Yuning took Qingzhi out of the side hall, and was about to go to Luo Chengjing, when he saw Luo Chengjing wearing a dragon robe and a crown and walked out of the house.
Luo Chengjing also saw Lu Yuning here, and without waiting for Lu Yuning to salute, he said, "Did Concubine Ai wake up?" ”
Lu Yuning smiled and said, "The concubine has lost her honor." ”
Luo Chengjing smiled and said indifferently: "Since Concubine Ai is awake, let's go to dinner first, I will go to the court first." ”
At this time, the court should be almost noisy, and he, the emperor who may have died in the hearts of the ministers, should also appear.
Lu Yuning looked at Luo Chengjing's clothes and knew that Luo Chengjing was going to the court, she originally wanted to talk to Luo Chengjing about going back to Linglong Pavilion, but Luo Chengjing left with Yuan En after speaking, Lu Yuning had to go back to the side hall for breakfast first, and then talk to Luo Chengjing about it after Luo Chengjing went to court.
In the court, the people who stood in line with King Qi knew that King Qi's plan last night had not succeeded the moment King Ning announced that King Qi's rebellion had been sent to the prison, but even so, they could only continue to go all the way to the dark.
Even if they didn't speak for King Qi at this time, after King Ning took power, would they, who had previously sided with King Qi, be safe and sound?
Don't say that King Ning didn't give them such a guarantee, even if King Ning gave them such a guarantee, they wouldn't believe that King Ning wouldn't liquidate them later.
So for their own sake, they must also help King Qi, only if it is King Qi who finally sits in that position, they will have a bright future in the future, and they can keep their careers.
And how can I help King Qi, of course, I pushed everything to King Ning, King Qi took people into the palace yesterday just because he was worried about the emperor, if King Qi was at fault, wouldn't King Ning, who also brought people into the palace last night, be even more wrong.
King Ning looked at the officials who accused him with a righteous face, and said coldly: "This king entered the palace, it was the royal brother who summoned this king into the palace, that is, this king will bring his own soldiers, and that is also what the royal brother asked this king to bring." King Qi, when he entered the palace, who summoned him in, and who asked him to bring his own soldiers? ”
"Prince Ning said that the emperor summoned you to the palace, and said that the emperor asked you to bring his own soldiers, who can testify? The emperor is no longer here, it's not Lord Ning, what are you talking about? ”
"Isn't the edict in the king's hand a witness?" King Ning asked.
"It is also possible that the edict was forged." Another official co-opted by King Qi stood up and said: "That edict was not issued by the emperor in front of all the ministers, who knows if the edict was forged by you, Prince Ning?" ”
"Since the adults don't believe in this king, and even the father-in-law is the emperor's side to serve closely, you should always believe him, right? You can ask him whether the edict was issued by the emperor's brother, or whether he personally sent it to the king. ”
"Do we know if Father-in-law Lian has been bought by you, Lord Ning? After all, he came out of Jianzhang Palace with you this morning. ”
King Ning looked at the ministers who forced him to let him release King Qi and admitted that the edict in his hand was fake, squinted his eyes, and asked, "The lords don't want to believe either this king or Gonggong Lian, so whose words can make the lords believe it?" ”
"Unless the emperor can wake up at this time and tell us in person that you were called into the palace, King Ning, we can believe that everything you said is true, King Ning."
They were sure that even if Luo Chengjing was not dead, his life was already hanging by a thread, and it was absolutely impossible for him to appear in the court again at this time, so they were very relieved to say this.
King Ning glanced at Lian Yongwang, Lian Yongwang nodded, King Ning hooked his lips slightly when he saw this, and asked the person who spoke, "Is it only the imperial brother who stands here in person at this time and tells you that this king is called into the palace, but the king of Qi leads people to force the palace with the intention of rebelling, will you believe that what this king said is true?" ”
Listening to King Ning's words, no one took it seriously, even the neutrals and those courtiers who supported King Ning felt that it was impossible.
But just after the speaker nodded, Luo Chengjing really walked out from behind.
"Then I will tell you personally that when the imperial doctor detoxified me last night, King Qi rushed into the palace with people to rebel, so you can be trusted?"
Except for King Ning and the others who knew about it, the rest of the people were stunned when they saw Luo Chengjing who suddenly appeared.
Isn't the emperor not good? How could it be......
The emperor just seemed to say that the imperial doctor detoxified him last night, could it be that the emperor suddenly summoned King Ning into the palace last night not to make an edict, but to detoxify the matter?
