"Yes, Your Majesty! My subordinates will always guard Madam's door!" The guard responded quickly, not daring to slack off at all.
King Guangping nodded and left the palace directly.
After a while, King Guangping arrived at the palace hall.
As soon as they entered the main hall, they saw Emperor Tianqi sitting on the dragon throne with a gloomy face. The eunuchs next to him were afraid to show their dignity and were very scared.
The entire hall was enveloped in a dull and depressing atmosphere.
It was obvious that the emperor had just lost his temper.
Seeing this scene, King Guangping's heart tightened and he became inexplicably nervous. He walked forward quickly, knelt down and saluted: "Your Majesty, I am here to see you."
"Um!"
Emperor Tianqi's expression did not change at all, and he did not let King Guangping stand up. He just stared at him calmly: "King Guangping, I heard that the imperial city is very lively today. Do you know what's going on?"
this...
Could it be that His Majesty summoned you because of your wife’s parading in the streets?
This is not a big deal, how did he know?
Thinking to himself, King Guangping pretended to be calm and said slowly: "I wonder what your Majesty is talking about?"
"Bang!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Emperor Tianqi slammed the dragon chair and angrily said: "You are still pretending to be stupid, right? The Qin Rongyin I gave you before did not abide by the rules of women, colluded with the palace grooms, and was paraded through the streets. You
But they stopped her, and not only that, they beat the princess in public and arrested many innocent people."
At this point, Emperor Tianqi pointed at King Guangping, his eyes spitting fire: "For an indiscreet woman and against public opinion, you have lost all my royal dignity. What crime do you deserve?"
Just now, Queen Huang Yan of Nanyun paid an audience and complained to Emperor Tianqi, seeking justice for her sister Huang Dan.
Upon learning of the situation, Emperor Tianqi was furious.
"His Majesty!"
King Guangping's heart trembled and he spoke in fear: "Your Majesty, things are not what you heard. Qin Rongyin did not do anything with the groom. She was framed..."
Before he finished speaking, he was directly interrupted by Emperor Tianqi: "Okay, you don't need to say more about this matter. In front of the people of the whole city, you openly protected a despicable woman. Do you know what the consequences will be?
?”
When saying this, Emperor Tianqi looked serious.
As an emperor, he doesn't care whether a woman is wronged, he only cares about the reputation of the royal family.
"Your Majesty..." King Guangping was sweating profusely and lowered his head and said, "I will ask my men to release those people."
"Is it enough to just let the people go?"
Emperor Tianqi looked at King Guangping and said coldly.
Feeling Emperor Tianqi's coldness, King Guangping's heart tightened and he said in panic: "What does your Majesty mean..."
call!
Emperor Tianqi took a deep breath and said calmly: "Execute that woman immediately to serve as a warning to others."
What?
In an instant, King Guangping's expression changed drastically, and he said anxiously: "Your Majesty, this..."
Before he finished speaking, Emperor Tianqi interrupted coldly: "What? You still want to disobey the imperial edict?"
At this moment, King Guangping felt his head was buzzing, and he reluctantly responded in a low voice: "I... don't dare!"
When he said this, King Guangping felt that his heart was being pulled.
Executing the woman you love is more painful than killing yourself! My wife has just suffered so much, and I can't be cruel.
