"Your Majesty, please ask your minister to see you."
"...Xuan."
"yes."
After a while, Qi Baoer, dressed in official robes, walked in.
He glanced around the room: the emperor was sitting alone behind the dragon case. On the left side of the dragon case stood His Royal Highness. On the ground in front of the dragon case, kneeling on the left were Shang Chengfeng and his wife, and on the right were kneeling Mrs. Wang and Wang Shangshu. biqμgètνt
Qi Baoer stepped forward without squinting, offered his hands and saluted, "I see you, Your Majesty, and your Highness, the Crown Prince."
The emperor narrowed his eyes and looked at her, "Get up, why did Bao'er come to the palace so late?"
Qi Baoer stood up and looked directly at the emperor with a calm face, "My residence is close to Master Shang's residence. I learned that Master Shang was brought into the palace by the night and the Shang family was surrounded by the imperial army. Especially
Let’s go into the palace and see what Mr. Shang has done.”
He grinned and showed two small white teeth, "Your Majesty, Master Shang is my superior. He has taken good care of me these days. He even treated me to several meals. If I knew clearly that something was going on in the Shang family but ignored me,
That’s a loss of conscience.”
She made it clear that she was here for the Baoshang family.
The corners of the mouth of His Royal Highness, who had a cold face on the side, twitched. This girl has grown into a big girl and is still so naughty.
The Emperor: "...you begged for Lord Shang just because he treated you to a few meals?"
When did your favors become so cheap?
If you had told me earlier, I would treat you to dinner every day.
Qi Baoer looked at the emperor speechlessly, "Your Majesty, I didn't say that I came to plead for mercy. I came to hear what Master Shang had committed. If it is true that being a woman is against the law, or doing something that is not allowed by law.
Your Majesty, don't do anything about it, I'll do it."
The emperor looked at her with helplessness, "You are really..."
He really didn't say anything, but the kindness and indulgence in his words were not hidden at all.
Everyone present, as long as they are not deaf or blind, can hear and see that the emperor's favor for Shi Lang is even more exaggerated than the rumors they have heard, but it is really better to not be a biological child than to be a biological child, and His Highness the Crown Prince cannot compare.
As we all know, after His Highness returned to Beijing from the south a few years ago, the relationship between the Emperor and His Highness became quite estranged; the Emperor never summoned His Highness the Crown Prince, and His Highness the Crown Prince never asked to see the Emperor when there was nothing to do.
Shangshu and Wang Shangshu quietly raised their heads and glanced at His Highness the Crown Prince to the side. They thought that His Highness the Crown Prince would not be angry but would show displeasure. Unexpectedly, they saw that His Highness, who had always been cold and cold, actually showed signs of displeasure on his face.
A faint smile.
Although the smile was fleeting, they dared to guarantee the future of future generations. His Highness the Crown Prince did smile just now.
A person from the emperor and a person from the prince, both of them had a look of fear in their eyes and hurriedly lowered their heads.
This time it dropped even lower.
The emperor seemed helpless and said helplessly: "That's all, just stand aside and listen."
"yes."
Qi Bao'er walked to Shang's side and stood there without any hesitation.
Not long after the two families were brought into the palace, the emperor left them idle for a while and played some psychological tactics. Before he could ask any questions, Qi Bao'er arrived.
Therefore, now the emperor doesn't quite understand what happened, at least not on the surface.
The emperor threw an envelope in front of the Shang family and said in a cold tone: "Shang Aiqing, you can read it yourself."
Shang Chengfeng's heart skipped a beat and he quickly picked up the envelope and opened it.
As he read the letter, his expression became more and more serious. After passing the letter to Mr. Shang, he knelt forward two steps and lay down, his voice sonorous and powerful.
"Your Majesty, this letter is full of slander. I am dedicated to serving the country. It can be said that I am not capable enough to handle the big task. But if I want to tangle with an enemy and judge a country, I would not even dare to lend you ten cowardly ministers, let alone
Don’t bother to do it.”
Qi Baoer's brows twitched slightly, why did the Lao Shang family get involved in collaborating with the enemy and ruling the country?
Not caring about anyone else, he stepped forward and snatched the letter from Master Shang's hand.
After hearing Shang Chengfeng's words, the emperor wanted to speak: "..."
Looking at Mr. Shang who was extremely angry in his confidence: "..."
There are also people with different thoughts around: "..."
How dare you be so disrespectful in the room or in front of the emperor?
He glanced at the emperor again, but he didn't show any displeasure. He even picked up the tea and took a sip. It was obvious that he deliberately gave Qi Shilang time to read the letter.
Everyone's thoughts changed. It seemed that they had to re-evaluate Minister Qi's position in the emperor's heart.
After reading the letter, Qi Baoer returned the letter to Mr. Shang. She stepped back and stood still as if she had not done anything shocking just now, looking at her calmly and calmly.
.
Her reaction amused the emperor. He put down the teacup and asked, "Have you read the letter? Do you see anything?"
Qi Baoer blinked and asked very sincerely: "Your Majesty, do you want me to tell the truth, or do you want me to tell lies?"
"How do you tell the truth, and how do you make up lies?"
"It's a lie. Lord Shang's collusion with the enemy and the ruling of the country are proven by faith. The evidence is considered solid. At worst, all nine tribes will be destroyed. At worst, one tribe will be destroyed and eight tribes will be exiled."
These words not only frightened a group of people in the Shang family, but also others were speechless.
Doesn’t Qi Shilang have a grudge against Shangshu’s family?
How hateful is this to not even let go of the Nine Clans?
Qi Baoer ignored everyone's different looks and continued: "The truth is, Your Majesty, this letter is a fake."
The emperor's eyes darkened, and he asked again with no discernible emotion: "Oh~, how did you know that this letter is fake?"
"Your Majesty, the letter is signed Hacibi. As far as I know, Hacibi is the name of the general who protects the country in Wuyue Kingdom."
A middle-aged man from the Wang family shouted: "Doesn't this prove that the Minister of Finance is in collusion with the Wuyue Kingdom?!"
Qi Baoer glanced at the middle-aged man and ignored him and continued: "Wuyue Kingdom is different from our Qilin Kingdom. There is no such thing as courtesy, justice and shame. Moreover, because they have more girls than boys, it is not a good idea for a woman to marry.
Marry a person, but marry a man from that family.
Especially their royal family, the king and his ministers and their wives, the father and his daughter-in-law, the brother and his sister-in-law, the brother and his sister-in-law, and even the son and his concubine, these are all very common things."
The prince's brows were furrowed, and the breath around him suddenly became colder.
Who told the little girl these dirty things?
"Hacibei's biological mother was from the Qilin Kingdom, and her background was not good. She was a girl from Qingyilou. She was bought by an official from the Wuyue Kingdom and gave her to the prime minister. The prime minister then gave her to their king.
Ha Cibei's biological mother found out she was pregnant before she was even a month old, and Ha Cibei was still a premature baby who was less than a month old.
Also, after giving birth to Hacibea, Hacibei’s biological mother was given the third prince by their king.”
Although the Wuyue Kingdom is chaotic, it still has purity requirements when it comes to blood, especially the royal family, which does not allow any confusion.
Therefore, Ha Cibei's identity was very embarrassing in Wuyue Kingdom, and he was also looked down upon by everyone.
"After Yawning was born, he was sent back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and was later transferred to the countryside to be raised by the Prime Minister."
It was the same Wang family member who had just screamed when he heard this and asked in confusion: "What does this have to do with his collusion with Shangshu?"
Now, even the palace people waiting aside looked at him with contempt.
