It is not unusual for King Yan to send people to keep an eye on the activities in Cuiwei Palace.
But for some unknown reason, at this moment, a chill suddenly ran across King Zhao's back. It seemed as if something extremely dangerous was surrounding him.
What are the causes of Concubine Tian Shu’s various anomalies?
"Lu Yi" went out of the palace and was targeted. Did she escape smoothly, or was she caught and leaked important secrets? Or was she bribed by King Yan's people and became an internal agent?
King Zhao stared at "Green Ripple" closely, and slowly uttered a few words: "When the concubine comes out and is safe, I will ask you carefully."
"Green Ripple" seemed a little unjust and aggrieved, but she didn't argue, she just agreed softly.
At this moment, Eunuch Shen came out.
Eunuch Shen is also in his fifties. He has fair skin and no beard under his chin. He does not look old. His voice has the unique feminine tone of a chamberlain: "I, by order of the emperor, invite His Highness King Zhao to come to the Hall of Supreme Harmony to see him."
King Zhao's eyes flashed, he nodded and said, "Okay, I will go see my father right now."
His Royal Highness King Zhao followed Eunuch Shen into the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
"Green Ripple" continued to wait with her head down.
Obviously, the suspicious King Zhao had become suspicious.
Next, King Zhao and Concubine Tian Shu met, and when they looked at each other, they might be suspicious of her... She would have to think about how to escape and protect herself.
Otherwise, with King Zhao's cruelty and cruelty, her life will be handed down in the palace today.
The sun rises and the sunshine becomes brighter and brighter.
The position where Feng Shaojun stood was sheltered from the bright and dazzling sunlight, but there was still a ray of light that shone on the corner of her skirt, casting a mottled white shadow.
Behind him, there was a sudden sound of footsteps.
Feng Shaojun's heart moved, he turned slightly sideways and looked over calmly.
The person who stepped forward was actually His Highness King Yan.
Several princes are all good-looking. King Yan, who is in his prime, is tall and straight, with a handsome face, bright eyes and extraordinary bearing.
Behind King Yan, there were more than ten personal guards.
Feng Shaojun subconsciously wanted to search for Shen You's figure, but then he secretly laughed.
Now Shen You has just entered Prince Yan's Mansion and has not yet officially started working as an errand! Let alone accompanying Prince Yan in and out of the palace.
Eunuch Yang also followed behind King Yan. He raised his eyes and met Feng Shaojun's eyes. Feng Shaojun nodded calmly.
Eunuch Yang's eyes flashed with joy, and he coughed lightly to remind King Yan.
King Yan followed Eunuch Yang's gaze and looked over.
Under the corridor outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony, a woman wearing a green palace skirt was standing with her head bowed.
There are many people in the harem, but there are only a few that His Highness King Yan can remember. Lu Yi is a confidant of Concubine Tian Shu. King Yan has seen her several times, but he has some impressions.
At this glance, King Yan couldn't help but secretly marvel.
As expected, he was dressed up perfectly, with no flaws visible.
This Miss Feng San is really amazing!
When they got closer, "Lu Yi" stepped forward and saluted: "My servant Lu Yi, I have met His Highness King Yan."
King Yan glanced at him: "Ping Shen."
"Lu Yi" responded in a low voice, stood up and silently stepped aside.
With the dignity of King Yan, it is naturally inconvenient to talk to a palace official.
King Yan ordered his chamberlain: "Go in and report to your father, and tell me that there is progress in Tian Kun's murder case. I will report it myself."
The chamberlain bravely said in a low voice: "Your Highness, this servant is brave. Early this morning, Concubine Shu entered the Hall of Supreme Harmony to meet the Holy Spirit. A moment ago, His Royal Highness King Zhao was also summoned into the Hall of Supreme Harmony."
"I don't know what the situation is like inside the palace now. I really don't have the courage to go in. Your Highness, please wait outside the palace."
In case Emperor Long'an is angry, he can only serve dishes when he goes in.
Of course His Highness King Yan is not afraid. He is just a chamberlain, but he is really very afraid.
King Yan glanced at the shivering chamberlain with a fearful face, and said calmly: "This matter is very urgent. Just go in and report it."
The chamberlain did not dare to say any more, so he had to pass on the message with a grimace.
…
Inside the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
Concubine Tian Shu knelt on the ground with a pale face.
King Zhao knelt beside Concubine Tian Shu.
Both mother and son endured Emperor Long'an's wrath together: "Okay, you two, mother and son, colluded to fool me. One will cover up Tian Kun in front of me, and the other will go to King Yan in private to plead for mercy!"
"I am indeed old, and I was fooled by you mother and son!"
Concubine Tian Shu could only cover her face and cry, with only one sentence in her mouth: "I know I was wrong!"
After King Zhao came in, he didn't even have a chance to speak. He was scolded by Emperor Long'an, with a look of misfortune on his face. But he couldn't refute.
He did go to King Yan to plead for mercy.
He had specifically told Concubine Tian Shu not to tell anyone about this matter. Who would have thought that Concubine Tian Shu was so frightened that she shook all the secrets away!
Emperor Long'an looked at King Zhao with pity: "Lao San, tell me, how much do you know about Tian Kun's illegal activities of selling young girls and making huge profits?"
Before King Zhao could argue, he said coldly: "If you dare to tell even half a lie, I will skin you!"
King Zhao's heart trembled, and cold sweat broke out on his back.
Emperor Long'an's holy heart is arbitrary and his temperament is changeable. If he is not careful today, he may really peel off his skin.
It’s important to protect yourself and your mother and concubine first.
As for Tian Kun, he can't care about it now.
King Zhao quickly made a decision and said with a face of shame and self-reproach: "Father, please calm down. I was also deceived by Tian Kun. He is the younger brother of my mother and concubine. He often gives generous gifts to me. I only know that
He was doing business in private, but he didn't know that what he was doing was such an evil thing."
"He was arrested and sent to the prison of the Criminal Department. I shamelessly begged the third brother, hoping that for the sake of my son, he would spare Tian Kun's life."
"Now I know that both my sons and my concubine were kept in the dark by Tian Kun."
"Ask the father to punish me, and my son will definitely receive the punishment."
Concubine Tian Shu's eyes were swollen from crying, and there was a bruise on her forehead: "Your Majesty, everything is my concubine's fault, no wonder King Zhao. If the emperor wants to punish me, then punish me, and spare King Zhao!"
Emperor Long'an obviously didn't have much sympathy for Concubine Tian Shu.
At that time, she was fascinated by sex and met a maid who washed her feet. Unexpectedly, Tian became pregnant and gave birth to a prince. Empress Liu lost face due to this incident and became depressed and fell ill.
Emperor Long'an felt guilty towards Empress Liu, and became increasingly indifferent to Concubine Tian Shu. Concubine Tian Shu was promoted to the position of concubine entirely because of the superiority of mother and son.
Now, Concubine Tian Shu has made such a fuss again.
Emperor Long'an's eyes were full of disgust and anger, and he was about to open his mouth to rebuke, when the chamberlain of Tongzhi walked in with his arms bent: "Your Majesty, His Highness King Yan said that he has something important to report, and please come to the palace to see him!"
Emperor Long'an's unexpressed anger immediately came out: "Come here, pull this talkative slave down and slap him thirty times."
Two tall and sturdy guards in imperial robes accepted the order and dragged the unlucky chamberlain out to do the work.
