The emperor seemed to have not been so angry for a long time, and he couldn't help but cough and gasp a few times.
Shang Qiyan quickly stepped forward and gently hammered the emperor's back with one hand, while the other hand kept breathing down the emperor's chest.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. Your Majesty, please calm down. Don't get angry." Shang Qiyan looked worried.
"Get out of here too!" The emperor blew his beard and glared.
Shang Qiyan has been by his side for more than thirty years and should be the person he trusts most.
Since the virtuous concubine will be given the title of virtuous by him, it can be seen that in the emperor's mind, she is indeed a virtuous woman.
But today, these people actually acted arrogantly in front of him, with yin and yang faces. Even if he was the emperor, he couldn't help but feel sad and disappointed.
"Your Majesty! You can beat me or scold me. If you can relieve your anger, you can chop the old slave with a knife." Shang Qiyan said while wiping his tears, "I just ask you not to be angry with yourself."
"Bring Liu Mizhang to my custody." The emperor closed his eyes, maybe because he was too tired, maybe because he didn't want to see anyone, "No one is allowed to plead for mercy. I have to skip the day tomorrow. I'm tired, so I need to take a good rest."
"
Finally, he retired.
Many people are unwilling to do so, and many others are hesitant.
Of course, there are also people who gloat over misfortunes and watch the fire from the other side.
The emperor did not say how to deal with the wise concubine, because since he said that he would not work until tomorrow, he would not say another word.
The concubines returned to the palace separately, as if they had made an appointment, without saying a word to each other.
"How could things be like this?" The queen looked at Liang Jing like he was judging a thief.
"I really don't know why it's like this." Liang Jing said, "We thought we had made complete preparations before."
"You are no different from a trickster, and you are fully prepared! This matter was tried by you and Shang Qiyan together. If the emperor doesn't say anything today, he will be investigated in the future. How will you protect yourself then?" the queen asked Liang Jing.
, in fact, I am worried about myself.
Even a fool understands that Liang Jing is hers and he is doing what she wants.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. Shang Qiyan and I have discussed it a long time ago. If something goes wrong, someone will be blamed." Liang Jing said, "My Majesty will not be affected."
"So what if I'm not even involved? I'm afraid your emperor will feel knotty in his heart." The queen snorted, like a sigh or a sneer.
"The Emperor's heart has always been leaning toward you," Liang Jing comforted. "In any case, even if what happened at your birthday banquet was definitely not your fault. So from the source, your Majesty is innocent.
.
As for the matter of Concubine Fu, Ge Qing has no cure for it. What's more, he said before his death that the person who ordered him is in the court, so it cannot be you, the empress.
After this reasoning, it should be the real culprit behind the scenes who asked him to reveal Concubine Fu to take the blame after he was arrested.
So from the beginning to the end, I have been a victim, and you have never wanted to harm anyone. It was just a mistake that led to such a situation.
The emperor will blame the person handling the case when the time comes, and he will never blame the empress."
After hearing what he said, the queen felt much calmer, but she was still unwilling to give in: "What is going on with this Ge Qing? I never expected that things would become so weird."
Liang Jing didn't say anything, just echoed.
He thought that after a few days when the storm subsided, he would have to meet someone.
In the palace of Concubine Xian, Kang Guang was a little uneasy: "Mother, what should we do now? Uncle Guo has been detained, why don't we let the queen find a way to help and beg for mercy!"
Concubine Xian was not that depressed, or maybe she didn't want to show a dejected look.
Kang Guang added: "These five princes are true! The emperor has repeatedly said that he will withdraw from the court, but he just holds on to them."
"Hmph, if you don't take care of yourself, you will be punished by heaven and earth. They are not fools, how can they just sit back and wait for death?" Concubine Xian finally spoke.
"Then what should we do? It seems that punishment is inevitable." Kang Guang said.
"If you are punished, you should be punished." Concubine Xian smiled, "Anyone with a discerning eye knows who we are working for, and the emperor naturally knows it in his heart. Not to mention us, didn't even Shang Qiyan give in?
?”
"It's true what the empress said. We are just doing things for the queen and the Yao family. The emperor will definitely punish us with small punishments and big punishments. The queen will also remember us as a favor!" Kang Guang's face added a little something.
Happy.
"Alas, but no matter what, we lost this round after all. My brother's career will be affected to some extent, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to turn around for a while." At this point, Concubine Xian showed her melancholy.
"Alas! It was already a sure thing, but who would have thought that such an accident would happen." Kang Guang said it was strange, "Is this Wei Zhong good at witchcraft?"
"Don't think about these things now. Things have already happened. Tell everyone in the palace to stay behind closed doors from now on and wait for the consequences." Concubine Xian's mind was still a little confused. Today's events were a sudden change, which made her
Unexpected.
What she is thinking the most now is, is there really someone behind Ge Qing? Who is that person?
The palace door of Furong Palace was also closed tightly, no one came in or out.
Wei Zhong behaved calmly from beginning to end, until he returned to the palace, his knees couldn't help but feel weak. If his apprentice hadn't supported him, he would have fallen to his knees.
"Okay, it's okay." Concubine Fu comforted her, "Ask them to help you go in and have a rest."
"Thank you for your consideration, my little one is fine." Wei Zhong smiled while trying to hold himself up, "There are still some things I haven't figured out yet, how can I rest?"
They entered the main hall, and all the irrelevant people stayed outside.
Chi Su and others were busy pouring tea for Concubine Fu to take off her clothes, and finally calmed down after working hard for a while.
Concubine Fu specially ordered Wei Zhong to sit down and said, "You were indeed frightened today. Sit down and take it easy!"
"Hey, if I'm not afraid of making everyone laugh," Wei Zhong said with a wry smile, "To be honest, there were a few times when I felt like I was going to pee my pants."
"I don't blame you for being afraid. The situation at that time was indeed dangerous." Chi Su and others said, "It's scary to think about confronting someone in front of hundreds of people."
"But why did Ge Qing become like that in the end? Was he really possessed by the god of travel?" Bishu was almost dying of curiosity.
"Hey, actually I don't know what's going on. You have to ask Heng Zhao." Wei Zhong said, "She told me what to say before, and I followed her instructions exactly.
Actually, I don’t understand what the twists and turns are here, and I’m also quite puzzled!”
"Girl Heng Zhao must have a clever plan. Okay, now that the matter has been resolved, you can tell us in detail what happened." Concubine Fu looked at Xue Hengzhao and felt more and more that her scheme was sophisticated.
