In the palace, the Queen Mother sat on the main seat of the main hall, the Queen sat next to her, and further down, the Concubine De was seated.
The Queen Mother's face was extremely ugly, but the Queen's appearance was extremely dignified, while Concubine De's face had a touch of sarcasm, her eyes were filled with unconcealable pride, and there was only a hint of ridicule on her delicate face.
Kneeling below was a man. The man was about fifty years old. He had a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks. His eyes were moving around, and he didn't look like a good person.
The queen's eyes narrowed slightly and she glanced at the man and then at Concubine De. Her eyes were full of deep calculations, but her face was calm and she just sat there motionless.
The Queen Mother's face looked a little ugly at this time, her eyes were full of sternness, and she was full of shock. She scolded lightly: "Are you telling the truth? After the Ai family finds out, if there is a lie,
The Ai family will definitely cut you into pieces!"
After the Queen Mother retired to the harem, she had not been involved in political affairs for many years. At this time, her majesty was immediately revealed when she spoke so righteously and solemnly.
The man lay on the ground and said: "This matter is of great importance, and ordinary people dare not believe what they say! Every word is true, please understand carefully!"
The Queen Mother's eyes were dark, and Concubine De glanced at the Queen Mother and said: "Mother, he is the brother Qin promised, what he said must be true, and the plan cannot be false."
The Queen Mother immediately glared at her, and she said a little aggrievedly: "I just heard the news by chance and sent someone to verify it. If I am not 100% sure, I will definitely not dare to say it in front of my mother.
I don’t dare to bring him here to see my mother.”
The Queen Mother did not speak, but snorted coldly.
Concubine De softly said again: "After I know my mother, I will definitely suspect that all this is my handiwork. I just want to attack Prince Jing and benefit Prince Ming. I admit that I do have some selfish motives in my heart, but this
This matter is of great importance, and no matter how selfish I am, I will not dare to make a fuss about it."
The Queen glanced at Concubine De and said: "Empress, Concubine De has some truth to what she said. No matter whether it is true or not, the heirs of the royal family cannot tolerate any suspicion. As the saying goes, there is no smoke without smoke. This matter still needs to be carefully investigated.
That’s it.”
The Queen Mother glanced at the Queen and said, "Then how to check the Queen's wishes?"
The queen said slowly: "This matter can only be done by sending Prince Jing to the palace and confessing his blood."
It turned out that when the queen took action against Chu Shu, she had already thought of a way to deal with Chu Yi.
Chu Yi's biological mother was just a maid, with a very low status and average appearance. She was just favored by the emperor for one night after he was drunk. After that night of romantic marriage, the emperor agreed to upgrade her from a maid to the lowest rank.
Everyone in the palace thought that she was from a humble background and had nothing to offer, so it was impossible for her to be favored.
No one expected that she would become pregnant with Chu Yi that night.
At that time, the queen was also pregnant with Chu's wish. After hearing the news, she was a little angry, but she had to be generous and arranged a side palace for her.
But the emperor obviously lost interest in her. Although she was promoted to agree, the emperor never stayed in her room again.
She became the only concubine in the palace who was favored by the emperor for only one night and became pregnant.
