Chapter 82: Asking Your Majesty for Peace and Departure
At this time, the palace gate had already been closed, and Emperor Changshun had also rested, if it wasn't for the burning eyebrows, he would generally not meet anyone.
Old Madam Qiao knelt at the door for a night with her old and weak body in this way!
Next.
When Emperor Changshun saw Old Madam Qiao, she was as weak as a piece of paper, as if a gust of wind could take her away.
She knelt down to see Sheng'an, tried her best to support her weakness and said: "Your Majesty, the concubine is guilty, and I have come to ask for it!"
Emperor Changshun saw that she was old and compassionate, and said gently: "Rest slowly, don't be in a hurry for this meeting." ”
What big things can happen to the Hou Mansion? Without a position or power, Emperor Changshun didn't take this matter to heart.
Old Madam Qiao said with a pious face full of repentance: "Thank you, Your Majesty, sympathetic to the concubine, it doesn't matter if the concubine is a concubine, it is really an important matter, and the concubine does not dare to delay for a moment." ”
"What's the matter?"
Old Madam Qiao told the ins and outs of the matter with sincere fear, and finally she said: "Your Majesty, the concubine's family really doesn't know Shen Shuli's identity, and when her grandson brought her back, she only knew that she was a village woman, and this person is now locked up in the Hou Mansion, and she asked Your Majesty to cut her." ”
Emperor Changshun was shocked, King Taifeng actually had illegitimate children? Didn't cut the grass and didn't eradicate it?
His soothing face wrinkled, Old Madam Qiao cautiously glanced at Emperor Changshun's face, and said: "Please also ask Your Majesty to forgive me, the Hou Mansion does not know people clearly, it is all the negligence of the elders of the concubine, Your Majesty wants to punish the punishment, just punish the concubine, Qien and Jiang Hong husband and wife are harmonious, you can't break off the relationship between husband and wife because of this matter, I beg Your Majesty to leave this master mother to the Hou Mansion." ”
When the words fell, Old Madam Qiao kowtowed religiously.
Emperor Changshun instructed the eunuchs around him: "Take the people to the Inspectorate for interrogation." ”
The eunuch stooped down and bowed his head to lead the order out.
Emperor Changshun had to investigate this matter before he could reward and punish him, and he said with a deep face: "Old lady, your health is not good, go back and rest first." ”
Old Madam Qiao begged bitterly: "Your Majesty, the concubine begs you to leave seven graces for the Hou Mansion, she is a good child, a good daughter-in-law, the Hou Mansion will always miss her good, the Hou Mansion is at fault in this matter, no matter what the price is, I am willing to pay, I just ask Your Majesty to look at the face of the old Hou Ye and leave this wife for the Hou Mansion." ”
Emperor Changshun said with a normal face: "The old lady is not in a hurry about this, but her body is still important." ”
After a pause, he instructed the eunuch: "Take the old lady down to rest and pass on the imperial doctor." ”
The eunuch bent down and bowed his head to receive the order: "Yes." ”
As soon as Old Madam Qiao retreated, the eunuch came in and said, "Your Majesty, Lord An has brought the little girl to ask for a meeting." ”
"Summoned."
An Zhengyuan, An Qien saluted.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty is blessed."
"See Your Majesty for concubines, Your Majesty is blessed with Jin'an."
Emperor Changshun: "Aiqing, please get up." ”
An Zhengyuan said respectfully: "The minister has important things to do to start the emperor." ”
"Say."
An Zhengyuan told all the bastard things Qiao Jianghong had done, and also said that Shen Shuli had murdered An Qien and her identity.
After he finished speaking, seeing Emperor Changshun's calm face, he already knew that Old Madam Qiao had taken the first step.
An Qien said eloquently: "Your Majesty, the concubine has been in the Hou Mansion for four years, sincere, diligent, and diligent, and now the son of the world is as ordinary as an ordinary person, everything is as sincere as a cloud, and the concubine just wants the two families to get together and disperse, and please fulfill it." ”
When the words fell, she lifted the hem of her skirt slightly with her hands and knelt down with her legs in pray.
Emperor Changshun glanced at An Qien a few times, and there was a little more appreciation in his eyes, Qiao Jianghong was sentenced to death by the imperial doctors in the palace, but he didn't expect that she would save the dead after three years of exhaustion!
This woman is no ordinary person.
An Zhengyuan's son is good, and his daughter is also outstanding, which is really a blessing.
Emperor Changshun took a slow sip of tea and said: "People are not saints and sages, four years of love is as deep as the sea, the Hou Mansion recognizes you as the head of the house, this matter is a bit complicated, wait until I investigate clearly." ”
An Qien knew that this matter was definitely not easy, and she learned last night that Old Madam Qiao deliberately came to the gate of the palace to kneel and sympathize.
This matter is also implicated in Shen Shuli's life experience, is it a matter of King Taifeng's party, and it is impossible to get Emperor Changshun to agree and leave it at the moment.
An Zhengyuan said: "Your Majesty is wise, if the little girl is reconciled, she will leave Beijing to practice in a Buddhist temple, and please fulfill Your Majesty." ”
This is because he is afraid that Emperor Changshun will be suspicious of his dissenting intentions, and An Zhengyuan will put an end to future troubles in advance.
Emperor Changshun knew what he was afraid of, a few years ago he misunderstood the wrong Anfu, and it was normal for An Zhengyuan to be afraid, Emperor Changshun said kindly: "Aiqing, and separation is a big deal for women, your little girl is not like an ordinary woman, it is too big to go to the Buddhist temple, I will seriously consider this matter." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Father and daughter spoke in unison.
......
After coming out of the palace, An Zhengyuan told An Qien: "You should be mentally prepared, it's not so easy." ”
"Thank you, father." An Qien glanced at An Zhengyuan gratefully, in the previous life, this father did not give her peace when he died, how could this life change so much?
"It's useless to thank me, whether this can be done or not depends on the seventeenth prince." He said this with his hands behind his waist and a heavy and deliberate low voice.
The Seventeenth Prince?
An Qien was shocked, what does it have to do with him? He's going to help her?
No wonder An Zhengyuan agreed with her to leave, presumably Lu Bochu became a lobbyist from it.
She owes him another favor.
The father and daughter talked and went back to their respective houses in carriages.
As soon as An Qien returned to the Hou Mansion, he found that there were many plainclothes officers and soldiers at home, and His Majesty monitored the Hou Mansion and took Shen Shuli away!
Na'an Mansion was naturally monitored, and when it was monitored, it would depend on when Emperor Changshun would find out the matter!
.....
As soon as Emperor Changshun came to the early dynasty, Lu Bochu came to him.
Before he could speak, Emperor Changshun glanced at him meaningfully and asked, "Are you here to be a lobbyist for An Jia?" ”
Lu Bochu clenched his fists, and said respectfully: "Yes, father, the son should have taken care of this matter, but the son of the son really can't stand it, the son of the Qiao family spoiled the concubine and killed his wife, and let the concubine bully his wife three times, this time he almost lost his life, he accepted the Qinglou woman again, and the An family is decent, how can she serve a husband with the Qinglou woman?"
"The little daughter of the An family saved the life of the son, out of selfishness, the son also wanted to help her escape from the cage, the father, the An family has never befriended the king of Taifeng, and there is no intention of rebellion, the father has found out this matter, and now the little daughter of the An family is begging for peace and leaving, and begging the father to fulfill her."
"Do you know that King Taifeng's illegitimate daughter is the concubine of the Hou Mansion?" Emperor Changshun asked him meaningfully.
"Erchen has heard of it, but according to what Erchen has seen, there is something strange about this, the second aunt of the Hou Mansion grew up in Hengzhou, but King Taifeng has never been here! This mother's mother is a native of Hengzhou, and she has never left Hengzhou for half a step, so it is not excluded that she is talking nonsense in order to save her life. ”
Emperor Changshun's eyes were shocked, what happened yesterday, Lu Bochu has found out the details now?
It was impossible to be so fast, and it would take two days to kill a few horses day and night.
