Yunli choked up and said, "I understand, but I really can't bear to have my mother go to the temple and suffer at her age. I beg the emperor to show mercy."
Yinzhen closed his eyes and said: "Since you understand, you shouldn't ask anymore. Okay, everyone, please step aside. I'm tired."
"Your Majesty..." Before Yunli could say anything more, Yinzhen already said: "I have said everything I need to say, stand down!" After saying the last two words, his voice became extremely cold, even if it was Yunli.
He didn't dare to speak rashly anymore, so he stood up and supported him all the time.
Concubine Qin, who could not help but tremble, exited the palace. Tu Lichen originally wanted to ask Yinzhen to immediately release the Nala clan, but when he was about to speak, he realized that now was not the right time, so he did not make any sound in the end and remained silent.
He exited the Yangxin Hall.
After stepping out of the palace, Concubine Qin saw Ping'er and Hongying who were following Tu Lichen. She waved away Yunli's hand and walked over, grabbed Ping'er's hair and slapped her hard, even harder than before.
Even more ruthless when inside the palace.
Ping'er cried out in pain while struggling, but Princess Qin's anger was so strong that she was unable to break away.
Hongying saw Concubine Qin who was like a vicious wolf at the side. She was so scared that she trembled all over and hurriedly hid behind Turichen to prevent Concubine Qin from catching her.
Yunli advised: "Mother, don't fight anymore, you can't solve the problem even if you act like this."
Concubine Qin snorted coldly and stopped what she was doing, but she did not let go of her hand holding Ping'er's hair. She said sternly: "You bitch, tell me, what kind of benefits did Tu Lichen promise you? To make you like this."
Harm me?!"
"I don't know what the concubine is talking about. What I said is the truth." Ping'er didn't dare to change her words, because she was still in the palace at the moment, and there were many eunuchs standing next to her. If she told the truth, it would reach Hongshi's ears.
, he would definitely not let her go. On the contrary, no matter how crazy Concubine Qin was at the moment, she would not dare to really kill herself.
"You are still lying. It seems that you really can't shed tears until you see the coffin!" Concubine Qin was driven crazy. She grabbed Ping'er's hair hard and said, "You think the emperor has deprived me of my position and ordered me to
I can't do anything if I go to Hui'an Temple to become a monk.
Are you wrong? No matter how far I fall, killing you is no different than squeezing an ant to death!" At this point, she turned her eyes and landed on Hongying who was huddled behind Turichen.
The body said: "There is no way you can survive!"
Seeing that Concubine Qin was going too far, Yunli frowned and said, "Mother, don't talk about this. My son will send you back to your home first, and then we will slowly think of a solution."
Concubine Qin said expressionlessly: "You can go back to your home, but you must take these two maids back with you!"
Upon hearing this, Ping'er was so frightened that she almost lost her soul. She cried and asked for help from Tulichen. The latter took a few steps forward and said: "Tiffany Qin, Ping'er is the person I brought here. Please come."
Let her go."
"If I don't let him go, how will you treat him?" Concubine Qin hated Tu Lichen to the extreme. If he hadn't been meddling in others' affairs, how could she have ended up like this?
Tu Lichen said coldly: "Princess Qin, it is already a serious crime for you to frame the empress of the dynasty. Do you want to be charged with murder again? If this is the case, it cannot be offset by becoming a monk, even if Ping'er
The same goes for ants who are just insignificant in your eyes."
Concubine Qin stared straight at Tu Lichen, holding Ping'er's hand and refusing to let go. She was unwilling to let Ping'er go.
"Mother, forget it, let go. You believe your son. He will definitely find a way to save you and prevent you from going to Hui'an Temple to become a monk. Besides, even if you kill Ping'er and Hongying now, it won't help.
"Under Yunli's persuasion, Concubine Qin finally let go of her hand. As soon as Ping'er got free, she quickly hid behind Tulichen like Hongying, for fear that Concubine Qin would change her mind and kill them desperately.
However, Concubine Qin did not do this. Even though she wanted to kill them thousands of times, she finally resisted the urge and left with Yunli's support.
After she left, not only Ping'er and Tu Lichen secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The crazy woman was really scary.
"Sir, what should we do now? If I leave the palace like this, I'm afraid that Concubine Qin will send someone to kill me. You said you would save me." Hongying looked at Tu Lichen longingly, her voice filled with emotion.
panic.
Turichen is not a person who burns bridges when crossing rivers. He will definitely do what he promised. He immediately said: "You two should follow me back home first, and then I will find a way to accommodate you." Hongying and the other two were overjoyed.
After thanking him repeatedly, he left the Forbidden City with Turichen.
On the other hand, after sending Princess Qin to the sedan chair, Yunli did not accompany her back to the palace, but entered the palace again, but this time he went not to the Yangxin Palace, but to the Chengqian Palace.
Yang Hai's eyes were full of surprise when he saw Yunli suddenly appearing outside Chengqian Palace. Although Yunli was the prince, it did not mean that he could enter and exit the harem at will without any summons.
Yunli said eagerly: "The king has something important to ask to see the imperial concubine. Please let me know."
As soon as Yang Haigang showed hesitation, Yunli said again: "I know that I shouldn't ask to see your empress in private, but I do have urgent matters to tell you. I hope that your father-in-law will make it easy for you."
Yang Hai heard that something was wrong, so he said no more, nodded and walked inside. After a while, he came out again and said: "Your Majesty, please come in."
"Thank you, father-in-law." After Yunli said hastily, he walked quickly inside and walked all the way to the main hall. Halfway through, Ling Ruo's voice suddenly came to his ears, "I am here."
Yunli hurriedly stopped and looked in the direction of the sound, only to see Ling Ruo sitting on a stone bench under the cherry blossom tree with a book in his hand.
Yunli hurriedly stepped forward and bowed and said, "I see you, the noble concubine. I wish you good luck!"
Ling Ruo put the scroll in his hand on the stone table and said, "Prince Guo, you don't have to be polite. Yang Hai said you were anxious to see me. Why?"
Yunli hurriedly recounted what happened in the Yangxin Hall, and then said: "Mother, Hui'an Temple is a poor and cold place. I am already fifty years old, how can I endure the bitter cold there, so I
I beg the empress to speak to the emperor and let me take the punishment on my behalf. As long as the emperor is willing to agree, I will be willing to reduce my title or exile myself."
Ling Ruo didn't hear what Yunli said clearly at all, her mind was all on what he said before. After she came to her senses, she said: "So, the emperor already believes that everything was done by Concubine Qin."
, has nothing to do with the Queen?”
"Yes, the emperor didn't believe it at first, but Hongying who was next to E Niang also suddenly testified against E Niang. With the testimony of the two of them, and the motives mentioned by Lord Tu, the emperor believed what they said and deprived E Niang.
Take the mother's position and send her to Hui'an Temple."
Ling Ruo asked again: "What's wrong with the queen? Has the emperor released her from the ban?"
