53. The heart is biased

"Who is it?" The four princesses followed the gaze of the four princes, and only then did they notice the palace maid's clothes scattered under the bed on the bed.

She hurriedly shouted, "Raise your head." ”

The palace maid raised her head tremblingly.

The fourth princess saw the palace maid who had been waiting for Liu Xinning all night, and couldn't help but gasp.

"Noisy, what are you doing?"

A majestic voice rang out at the door.

Everyone looked up and saw Emperor Qingping standing in the middle of the main hall with Tai Dajian and a palace maid with an unpredictable expression.

The curtain separating the main hall from the inner chamber has been lifted, and everything is in full view.

The person who broke it was really the emperor.

Liu Xinning was alone in the wing room and sighed softly.

The strategy is not clichΓ©, it just works!

"Father," the four princes and concubines knelt down in panic to greet him.

Mrs. Sha in the hall had already knelt on the ground and did not dare to move.

"The prince was drunk, pampered a palace maid, and asked his father to forgive his sins."

The four princesses woke up from their surprise and hurriedly excused the four princes.

The women in the palace are, logically speaking, the emperor's women.

However, it is just a palace maid, and the princes are also used. The emperor generally does not account for this.

Emperor Qingping glanced at Yi Shi deeply before saying, "Yi Shi take Mrs. Sha back to the banquet." ”

The four princesses knew that Emperor Qingping was going to teach the four princes a lesson, so she hurriedly took Mrs. Sha out.

She didn't know why it had turned out this way, but it was a great thing for her.

A concubine with the status of a palace maid is much better than a side concubine with the status of a county lord.

Especially the county lord, who is so favored.

Therefore, the four princesses on the way back, although they were worried on their faces, calmly hinted in their hearts that Mrs. Sha should not talk nonsense.

When Mrs. Sha saw that she had broken through the people of the Fourth Prince's Favored Palace, she was already uneasy, so she was naturally busy.

In the cherry blossom courtyard, the four princes knelt on the ground nervously, and the palace maid on the bed trembled like chaff.

"Get dressed and follow me to the imperial study." After Emperor Qingping finished speaking, he walked out of the door.

The four princes went to get dressed, and Emperor Qingping walked to the courtyard and stopped.

"You can bring Zhaoyang with you." Emperor Qingping said to the dark-clothed woman behind him.

The woman should be, and then came out of the wing room with Liu Xinning.

After getting dressed, the four princes walked into the courtyard and saw Liu Xinning standing in the courtyard, their footsteps couldn't help but pause, and a little panicked look appeared on their faces.

When Liu Xinning saw the four princes come out, she saluted lightly, but did not speak.

The fourth prince opened his mouth, not knowing what to say for a while.

"Deal with it." After Emperor Qingping lightly instructed Tai Dajian, he said to the four princes and Liu Xinning: "Let's go." ”

After saying that, he took the lead and went to the imperial study.

In the main hall of the imperial study, the woman told Emperor Qingping about the matter.

In the west side hall, there sat the calm Liu Xinning and the restless four princes.

After listening to the woman's message, Emperor Qingping waved his hand and let her retreat.

After a while, Eunuch Tai walked into the main hall, and after whispering, he bowed down and stood in the corner.

Things are already clear.

The woman was the Secret Guard of the Dark Guard.

The Secret Guard Division's Secret Guard Specialist Guards Guarding the Emperor were supposed to obey the Emperor's orders alone.

However, the Queen Mother is his biological mother and lives in the palace.

Therefore, Emperor Qingping was worried that those palace concubines or princesses who were fluctuating in their minds would do bad things to the elderly queen mother, so he sent a female secret guard to protect the queen mother.

The female secret guard started from the queen mother's interrogation of Min and the county lord to being broken by Emperor Qingping, and what happened during this period was told from beginning to end.

Emperor Qingping thought of his whereabouts as if he had been deliberately guided tonight, and couldn't help but close his eyes.

He was about to return to the banquet after pacing casually to dissipate the smell of wine, but only to see a sneaky figure.

Eunuch Tai shouted for the man to stop, but the man ran away in a hurry.

Feeling deeply different, he followed to the east gate of Yingfu Palace and heard the movement in the cherry blossom courtyard.

Then, he saw the queen mother's female secret guard and knew that Liu Xinning was in the wing.

Now, after listening to Tai Dajian's confession, how could he not know what the four princes wanted to do.

However, Emperor Qingping didn't know how to send out his fourth son.

He knew that since the Queen Mother asked the secret guard to come forward, she was telling him clearly that she wanted to pursue it.

However, the fourth prince is his biological son after all.

Besides, it didn't work out after all......

"The Queen Mother has arrived."

Emperor Qingping, who was contemplating, was awakened by the announcement of the little eunuch at the door, and he hurriedly walked to the door of the main hall to greet the Queen Mother.

After the Queen Mother came in, she saw that there were no Liu Xinning and the four princes in the main hall, so her eyes turned to Emperor Qingping.

"They are in the west side temple...... I haven't had time to send them over. Emperor Qingping explained with a wry smile.

"Then call here." The Queen Mother followed the support of Emperor Qingping and sat on the chair at the top.

"Queen Mother......" Emperor Qingping hesitated.

This time, he pierced this layer of window paper, and he must give Zhaoyang justice.

"I know that Xiaosi is your son, but Ning'er is your niece, the only flesh and blood of the sister who drank the poison for you." The Queen Mother looked at the hesitant Emperor Qingping and said word by word.

When Emperor Qingping heard this, he immediately blushed a little.

Yes, Changle saved him a disaster. If it were him, he would have drunk all the soup.

Thinking of this, Emperor Qingping asked Tai Dajian to bring Liu Xinning and the four princes over.

After the two of them finished greeting each other, Emperor Qingping asked Liu Xinning to sit on the chair, but let the four princes kneel.

"Evil obstacles." Emperor Qingping scolded.

"The father forgives the sin, and the son will only pamper the palace maid when he is drunk." The four princes hurriedly pleaded guilty.

"You say." Emperor Qingping asked Tai to state what the female secret guard said and the confession of the palace maid one by one.

After hearing this, the four princes' faces turned a little pale.

He didn't understand, he obviously sent his henchmen and eunuchs to guard the door, how could he let Min and the county lord hear it?

However, at this time, he could only excuse himself in every possible way, saying that he did not.

"Your people have been imprisoned, are you sure they can confront you in front of the court?"

Emperor Qingping looked at this stubborn son and couldn't help but become cold.

"They can't say that they were bribed and framed me." The fourth prince said without giving up.

"Is it just testimony? Did you ever show up in the cherry blossom garden? Did you go in when you found it dark? Did you do anything like that when you found a sleeping woman on the bed? Aren't you doing these things? Your princess, just so coincidentally broke in? I was so coincidental that I was led to Yingfu Palace? You're telling me it's all coincidences? Now Tai Gui is investigating the person who guided him, are you sure he has not been found all along? ”

Emperor Qingping was disappointed.

He knew that this son had the heart to compete for the throne, but he was not smart enough. He only thinks about people who are not smart, and he can't turn the sky.

Yes, it's not overturned now, but it just came up with such a bad idea.

He just thought about wronging Zhaoyang for this son, but this son didn't tell the truth in the face of conclusive evidence.
