When Cen Yunchu returned to the dormitory without saying a word, he went directly into the inner room and lay down on the bed facing forward.
The maids and eunuchs did not dare to come in and disturb them, and waited outside honestly.
The emperor hurriedly came over to comfort her, only to see tears streaming down her face and the tip of her nose turning red from crying.
"My dear, don't cry. I know you have been wronged and I will definitely make the decision for you." The emperor held Cen Yunchu in his arms and said while wiping her tears.
This was the first time that Cen Yun cried after entering the palace. She never complained in front of the emperor and knew the general situation well.
What happened today is indeed hurtful. It was clearly the Queen and Cui Ruifei who set up a trap for her.
If it weren't for Cen Yunchu's superior moves, he would have been bullied sooner or later.
But Cen Yunchu cried and pushed him: "Your Majesty, please leave quickly and don't come to my place from now on!"
"You are my most beloved woman, why should I leave?" The emperor hugged her tighter.
The red mark on Cen Yunchu's wrist looked like blood. The emperor took it and brought it to his lips and kissed it again and again.
"Didn't you hear what they said? They said I stole people, and why didn't I die in a head-on collision!" Cen Yunchu cried even harder, "Although they are the only ones who said it, I don't know how many people think so in their hearts!"
Cen Yunchu never cried or made trouble in public, and when he came back like this, the Emperor Quan thought he was being coquettish with him.
"It's all nonsense. Others don't know what's going on. How can I not know?" The emperor said with a thousand percent gentleness, "If you don't kill them, you don't want your reputation to be damaged. After all, you are going to do it in the future.
To be a queen.
However, death penalty can be avoided, but living crime cannot be escaped. I will not forgive you lightly, so just don’t worry."
"It's all your fault," Cen Yunchu choked, "I begged you to send me back, but you just refused."
"It's my fault," the emperor saw her stop crying, and felt relieved, "I will kill you this time to serve as a warning to others, so no one will dare to say anything nonsense again."
Two days later, the emperor officially issued the decree.
Ye Yinglan and Sun Moer were disrespectful to the emperor and angered Long Yan, so they were ordered to become nuns for life to atone for their sins.
His family's discipline was not strict, and both his parents and brothers were guilty.
His father reduced his position and seized the title, and his mother resigned from the imperial court. His brother was dismissed from the official position and will not be retained for the rest of his life.
The Ye and Sun families fell into decline and could not settle down in the capital, so they hurried back to their ancestral home.
It's time to turn on the lanterns in Chengen's Mansion.
Xu Chunjun and Zheng Wuji were finishing their meal. They had four dishes and one soup, including Xu Chunjun's favorite shrimp.
"The stupid girls from the Ye and Sun families will offend whoever they offend." Zheng Wuji peeled off a shrimp and fed it to Xu Chunjun. "Although this punishment is not the heaviest, the emperor spared their lives. But the two families
People could no longer bear it. Not only did they lose their official positions, but no one dared to associate with him from now on, which is considered to be a complete severance of divine grace."
"The two families were in power at first, but this time it's really hard to turn around," Xu Chunjun said.
"So it is said that accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. If you are not careful, you will lose your job and lose your family!" Zheng Wuji sighed.
"These two families were dealt with, and the Cui family and the queen's wings were also partially cut off." Xu Chunjun said, "Those with a discerning eye should be able to see the clues."
"That's because they themselves set themselves on fire, otherwise we wouldn't be able to unjustly accuse them out of thin air." Zheng Wuji said.
"It must have been Yun Chu who took action," Xu Chunjun said, "She was promoted to Zhaoyi, but this happened to her back.
These two women must have competed for favor when they entered the palace, but unexpectedly Yun Chu countered them."
Although Xu Chunjun didn't know the specific story of the incident, he could guess that it was closely related to Cen Yunchu.
"Madam, we two might as well take a guess," Zheng Wuji fed Xu Chunjun another shrimp, "When will Empress Cen become a concubine?"
Xu Chunjun finished the shrimp slowly, wiped his mouth again, and said, "It's always about the end of this year."
"This is truly the love of three thousand people," Zheng Wuji smiled, "The nine sons of the Cen family are all good, and they will definitely be able to support Empress Cen in the future."
"There is also Wang Chen!" Xu Chunjun reminded, "He got engaged to the head of Jiaming County and joined the Ministry of War. Yun Chu also had a foundation in the previous dynasty."
"Oh, when you said that, I remembered it." Zheng Wuji slapped his thigh, "Didn't Uncle Ke be appointed as the commander of the troops and horses in the capital before? At that time, Empress Cen had already served the saint, right?"
"The time is right," Xu Chunjun nodded, "Many people commented at that time that they originally thought that this position would be filled by the queen's brother!"
"The Holy Heart is so unpredictable!" Zheng Wuji sighed, "Even the queen must be on guard. The two sides are playing a game to see who wins."
"Yun Chu was crowned a concubine, and she is only one step away from becoming a queen. If there is another east wind, everything will be ready." Xu Chunjun scooped a bowl of soup for Zheng Wuji and said.
"What Dongfeng?" Zheng Wuji asked.
"If Yun Chu can give birth to another prince, that will really scare the queen!" Xu Chunjun said, "The two sides will be at war with each other, and there will be no peace anymore."
"You're right." Zheng Wuji nodded repeatedly, "Let's not make plans for others, let's just focus on our own success!"
Xu Chunjun didn't understand, so he asked him: "What is the east wind in our house?"
"What do you think? My little dear!" Zheng Wuji said as he picked her up, "Of course I want to have children."
Xu Chunjun blushed with embarrassment and whispered: "Stop making trouble, I just finished eating."
"I'm full and warm, and I miss my dear ones," Zheng Wuji said with a serious smile, "The night is still long, let's take our time."
"Then I have to wash up." Xu Chunjun struggled, "Otherwise, it's not allowed."
"Okay, I'll ask someone to prepare." Zheng Wuji put her down.
Then the maid came in to clear away the dishes, and Xu Chunjun went to take a bath.
As soon as she took off her clothes and went in, Zheng Wuji came in.
Xu Chunjun was shy and huddled in the water and said, "What are you doing here? Get out quickly."
Zheng Wuji said as he undressed, "Let's play like mandarin ducks in the water. I really can't wait."
"I'll wash it in a moment. You can go out first." Xu Chunjun didn't dare to look at him.
"A moment of spring night is worth a thousand pieces of gold," Zheng Wuji was so shameless, "Don't be shy, madam, it's important to do business."
Saying that, he also got into the bathtub.
"What kind of behavior is this?" Xu Chunjun's face flushed, "You can't help it, get out quickly."
"Wouldn't it be fun to change places?" Zheng Wuji smiled and approached her and said, "I'm really worried. If our children don't come here, they will be bullied in the future."
"What's the point?" Xu Chunjun was puzzled, "Who would bully him?"
"The child in Mr. Huo's family is already half a year old, right? There is also a child in my eldest sister's family who will be born at the end of the year.
Madam Cen may have given birth to a dragon fetus, and then our child will be the youngest, so won’t he be bullied?" Zheng Wuji said plausibly.
"That's impossible..." Xu Chunjun was still hiding.
Zheng Wuji hugged her slender waist and coaxed: "Good lady, please obey me just this once!"
