Chapter 407 Not only innocent, but also great merit
Yan Yuan picked up the tea cup in front of him and took a sip.
Eunuch Liu came in and reported: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty..." He was about to say the Queen, but suddenly he remembered that the Queen had been deposed, "Concubine Bian, please see me."
"Let her in."
Bian Guirong was deposed and now he is like a walking firecracker, and his anger is ready to explode at any time. Although she knows that she can no longer control Yan Cang. However, he first wanted to get rid of Qing'er, and now he has been deposed.
Even if her subordinate is said to be a lunatic, she will still use the idea of "exposing his true face" as a blackmail. In the worst case, she will die!
When Bian Guirong saw the man sitting under the sycamore tree and enjoying tea leisurely, his feet seemed to be nailed with nails, and he could not take a step forward.
Eunuch Liu reminded in a low voice from the side: "Concubine Bian, please leave quickly, don't keep the emperor waiting."
Because she had loved him before, with just one glance, Bian Guirong knew that it was 'him' who was back. After being urged twice by Eunuch Liu, she staggered to Yan Yuan.
Bian Guirong knelt down directly and made a great salute: "I, my concubine, bow to your Majesty."
Yan Yuan didn't ask her to get up: "Why are you here?"
Bian Guirong's mind changed. Now that the emperor was back, then, by giving the concubines the anti-child medicine after they went to bed, she was not severing the emperor's heirs at all, but protecting the royal bloodline from being tarnished. Not only was she not guilty, she had also done a great job.
Bian Guirong lowered his head and said, "I would like to ask the emperor, why did you depose me from the position of queen?"
"Because what your father means is that while the queen is still alive, Yuqing cannot be named queen." Yan Yuan stroked the tea cup with his slender fingers and said casually, "So, between deposing you from the throne and directly imposing death, I
I chose the former. If you are not satisfied, I don’t mind changing to the latter.”
"..." Bian Guirong suddenly raised his head and met Yan Yuan's indifferent eyes.
"For what you have done, even if you execute Ling Chi, you will take advantage of it. Exterminating the nine clans is more than enough." Yan Yuan's eyes became particularly dark, "If you don't want to bring trouble to the Bian family, just stay in Jingsi Palace and don't show up in my presence."
In front of me, remind me that my great revenge has not been avenged.”#@$&
"Your Majesty, not your concubines...all..."
"You don't have to shirk your responsibilities and look for excuses. I heard a saying a few days ago that applies to you quite well, 'In an avalanche, no snowflake is innocent.'"
"Concubine..."
"You are more than just a 'snowflake'." Killing intent suddenly appeared in Yan Yuan's eyes.
Bian Guirong was frightened by Yan Yuan's momentum and fell to the ground.%&(&
"Liu Song, send Concubine Bian back to Jingsi Palace." Yan Yuan said in a deep voice.
"Yes." Eunuch Liu summoned a young eunuch and carried Concubine Bian out of the Wuxia Palace.
Yan Yuan pretended to be ill in the Wuxia Palace, while Mingruo and Yan Zhaobai returned to the palace and reset the mourning hall. Before, Concubine Su arranged her posthumous affairs like that, probably because she did not want to get entangled with the 'fake father'. Now that her real father is back
, then Concubine Su should also enjoy the honor that belongs to her.
Ming Ruo asked Aunt Zijin to put the concubine's clothes into the coffin so that it could be sent to the imperial mausoleum as a tomb.
Everything has just been packed up here in the palace, and officials from the Ministry of Rites have also been sent to arrange the memorial ceremony. The death of the queen is a national mourning. In the capital, everyone who has an imperial edict will pay their respects from the end of Chen Shi to the beginning of Shen Shi every day.
Entering the palace is based on the nobility system. It is decreed to the world that no banquets are allowed in the hairpin cherry house for one month, no business is allowed on the Goulan tile shop for two months, and the common people are not allowed to get married in three months.
For a time, Qingyang Mountain, which was originally relatively quiet, was filled with frequent traffic. Officials and relatives of the third rank and above went to the palace to watch over Queen Wende. Women of the third rank and below prayed for Queen Wende in Qingyang Temple.
Although Qingyang Mountain is not far from returning to the capital, it is comparable to the 'working hours' of nine to five, and the ladies can't afford it. Those who have a village nearby live in the village. It is really far away.
Those who are far away can only stay in the wing room prepared for pilgrims in Qingyang Temple.
Mingruo stood in front of the window on the second floor of Mingzhu Pavilion, watching the carriages coming and going on the mountain road. As the only legitimate daughter of Queen Wende, Mingruo could not guard the mourning hall. According to Nanrong custom, a daughter who married outside the family should not be guarded in the mourning hall.
The mourning can only be done in the morning and evening. The mourning hall can only be guarded by the daughter-in-law, unmarried daughter and grandchildren.
Just after noon, Mingruo finished offering incense. The second prince, Yan Zhaokai, took the princess and the eldest son to arrive first. They first entered the mourning hall to offer incense, and then went to the side hall to talk.
"Second Emperor Brother, Second Emperor Sister-in-law." Ming Ruo greeted the two of them first.
Yan Zhaokai has decided to hang out with Lao Wu. Although Lao Wu is not Queen Wende's biological child, he is named in Queen Wende's name and is a legitimate son. Looking at the trends in the palace, his father seems to have changed his mind.
…
"Jiu Huangmei, you don't need to be polite." Yan Zhaokai quickly said to his son, "Yu'er, come to see your Aunt Huang."
"My nephew pays homage to the imperial aunt." The young boy stepped forward and saluted.
"No courtesy." Mingruo raised his hand.
Zisu brought an inkstone and two new books on a tray, which were gifts from Mingruo to his nephew. These were originally prepared when they entered Beijing, but at that time, Mingruo was still a little transparent in the eyes of everyone, and no one came to the post.
Visit the museum.
"Thank you, Auntie Huang." The young boy accepted the gift respectfully.
"You're welcome."
Several princes who were in the capital came one after another with the princess's legitimate sons and daughters to keep vigil for Queen Wende. The princes who were not in the capital also hurried back, making sure to arrive before Queen Wende was buried.
Among the nine princesses, only the eldest princess and the fourth princess who were Queen Bian's biological children were married in the capital. The rest were all married by Yan Cangyuan and it was impossible to rush back.
At this time, the fourth princess and her eldest sister took a palace car together and came to Qingyang Mountain.
The eyes of the fourth princess were full of resentment: "That little bitch, I don't know what kind of ecstasy soup you poured into your father..."
The eldest princess had listened to her cursing all the way and felt her head hurt: "You can just talk in the car. Don't talk nonsense when you get to the palace later."
"Am I still afraid of that loser?" The fourth princess didn't take Mingruo seriously at all.
"Now my mother and concubine are relegated to the Jingsi Palace. If you get into trouble, no one will be able to take care of the consequences for you." The eldest princess only felt tired. Her mother was deposed, and her grandfather did not dare to step forward, but this sister was so ignorant of current affairs.
"The court meeting will be suspended for three days, how can such a trivial matter alarm the emperor?" The carriage stopped, and the fourth princess got out of the carriage first.
Seeing that the fourth princess was so rude, the eldest princess was displeased, but she did not show it on her face. She was helped out of the carriage by her maid and deliberately distanced herself from the fourth princess.
The fourth princess rushed into the main hall angrily and found that only the female official was burning paper in front of the soul. Xiaojiu was not there, so she shouted: "Yan Mingruo, come out to me!"
Eunuch Liu had just brought the emperor's oral instructions to admonish the princes and concubines in the side hall to keep a good vigil for Queen Wende, when he heard the four princesses yelling in the main hall. The corner of Liu Song's mouth twitched, these four princesses
The ability to commit suicide is really unmatched.
