Chapter 420 The dust has settled on the Yao family
On this day, Concubine Fu had tidied up and said to Wei Zhong, "I wonder if the concubine is up? It's time to go and say hello."
After hearing this, Wei Zhong said: "The weather is nice now. If your Majesty is not tired, let's go over and have a look. Even if the Princess doesn't get up, we should just enjoy the scenery."
"Then let's go shopping for now! Don't forget to bring our newly made milk tea." Fu Fei said.
Xue Hengzhao didn't get up early today. Yin Shu first filled some water for her to wash up, and then went to serve the meal.
Xue Hengzhao drank a bowl of porridge slowly, rinsed his mouth and came to the front. Concubine Fu had already arrived and was having tea and talking with Concubine Rong.
Xue Hengzhao stepped forward to say hello, and Concubine Fu smiled and said, "I was thinking of sending someone to call you just now, but it happened that you came by yourself."
When Xue Hengzhao came up to pour tea, Concubine Rong said: "How are Lan Ning these days? The joy is at its worst at this time."
"Yesterday I asked someone to go out of the palace to bring her food. I said she was a little noisy, but it was just because she was easily nauseous and needed to sleep more." Concubine Fu said, "Everything else was fine, but she had to stand for a long time during the ceremony.
I haven't rested for these days yet! I said I would come to the palace to see my ancestors in a few days."
"It doesn't matter whether I see you or not. It's important to take good care of your body." Concubine Rong said, "Besides, the current situation is chaotic and everyone's mood is not peaceful."
Just as he was talking, Concubine Li came with someone.
As he entered the door, he smiled and said, "I'm tired, so I came to pay my respects to the Concubine. Sister Fu Fei is so close that she arrived early. No wonder they say that my sister is the most filial."
"If you say I am close, that would be true. But I dare not call you the most filial," Concubine Fu said with a calm smile, "Filial piety is a matter of heart but not deeds. The most filial person is naturally Your Majesty."
Concubine Rong asked Concubine Li to sit down, and the people below had already brought tea.
Li Fei has always been used to being public, and even though she later restrained herself, her nature never changed much.
After sitting down, he said without waiting for a sip of tea: "Your Majesty has gone to court today, and he hasn't gone down to court this morning. I think he is going to punish the Yao family."
"I think so," Concubine Fu took a sip of tea, "We don't dare to make wild guesses, let's wait for the imperial decree!"
Li Fei covered her mouth and smiled and said: "Sister Fu Fei is really the most cautious, but everyone has said that Tian Mu in the prophecy is talking about the fifth prince!"
"I asked what Sister Li Fei is doing these days? It turns out she is studying the prophecies!" Concubine Xian walked in from the outside with a smile, "You often serve the Holy One, do you know what the Holy One thinks?"
"What do you think, Your Majesty? When I was accompanying him, he didn't mention this matter at all." Li Fei said, "You also know that I am stupid. I just hear what others say, so I take it and repeat it again."
"This is a great prophecy made by heaven. The hidden secrets in it are very deep. Let's not make any assumptions." Concubine Rong didn't want everyone to go around and around on this matter, lest she say anything careless.
Looking for trouble.
"The ancestors are right," Concubine Xian immediately agreed, "This is all destined by heaven, and only those with wisdom cannot understand it."
"Sister Xian Fei, I heard that Yao Wanyi is dead?" Li Fei looked at Xian Fei playfully and asked.
"My sister's ear retribution is really good." Xian Fei smiled, "She committed suicide. She knew that she couldn't escape no matter what, so she just gave herself a break. How could a person like her be used to being pampered and treated well, how could she endure the pain of prison?
?”
"But she committed suicide, wouldn't the sins of her family members be even more serious?" Concubine Li looked at Concubine Xian without blinking, "If nothing else, Yao Tai still has two grandsons!"
"I don't know about that." Concubine Xian smiled, "When people are poor and have short ambitions, they will jump over the wall. In such a panic situation, it is normal for people to do stupid things without thinking carefully."
"Tsk, tsk, let me tell you, this life is full of unpredictable blessings and misfortunes." Li Fei suddenly sighed, "I think back when my sister treated Yao Wanyi so affectionately, I thought she was your biological daughter!"
"Yes, I am just a sincere fool." Concubine Xian was not annoyed at all, "Your Majesty proposed this marriage, so naturally I would happily accept it, thinking that by protecting her, I would be loyal to Your Majesty.
Now that the Yao family has committed a serious crime, they are no longer relatives but traitors to the country, so how can I still pity them?"
"The palace has just calmed down a bit, what are you arguing about here?" Concubine Rong rarely lost her face, "You love trivial matters so much, don't come to my place to pay your respects tomorrow, lest you give me a headache."
Seeing that Concubine Rong was obviously displeased, Concubine Li quickly laughed and said, "Excuse me, ancestors. It's true that I am outspoken and love to gossip. Now I don't dare to talk nonsense anymore."
Concubine Xian also said: "It's all my concubine's fault. She came here to relieve our ancestors' boredom, but instead it caused you trouble. Damn it, damn it!"
"Okay, this is not a big deal. I'll just say a few words from now on." Concubine Rong said, "Why don't you see Ma Cairen?"
"She has been ill these past few days," Concubine Fu said. "I thought she would recover soon, so I came here to say hello."
Then Zhang Ze came here to look for Concubine Li: "To the concubine, concubines, please say hello.
Your Majesty has come down to court and asked Concubine Li to come over."
"Eunuch Zhang, what's going on in the court today?" Concubine Li stopped walking.
"It's just a decision on how to deal with the Yao family." Zhang Ze said.
The results have come out and there is nothing to say.
Naturally, Yao Ziyun was deprived of her title of empress and was demoted to a commoner. She was thrown into the cold palace and spent her whole life fasting and cultivating in order to atone for her sins.
Yao Tai confiscated his property and further investigated his associates.
Let's leave a few children under the age of thirteen behind for now, but if they deliberately deceive and refuse to confess truthfully, then they will all be executed and no one will be left alive.
But no matter what, Yao Tai and Princess Maoling are already guilty of death.
Apart from these, the one the courtiers discussed most intensely was Prince Zhu Chong.
Although Yao Ziyun and the Yao family committed serious crimes, there were still a group of courtiers who tried to protect Zhu Chong, even threatening death.
According to the emperor's wishes, Zhu Chong must be deposed. However, the opinions of the courtiers cannot be completely ignored, especially at the moment when it is necessary to focus on cutting off Yao Tai's associates, and these veterans have always been known for their uprightness and uprightness.
If you punish them for this, it will only add to the chaos.
Therefore, the matter has been put on hold for the time being.
This result was expected by everyone, so no one said anything after hearing it.
Li Fei stood up and left, following Zhang Ze.
Concubine Fu also stood up and said: "I have been harassing the concubine for a long time. It's time for me to go back. Come back tomorrow to say hello."
Concubine Xian also resigned.
When walking back, Kang Guang asked Concubine Xian: "What does Concubine Li mean today? How can she be so aggressive?"
Concubine Xian also felt puzzled and said: "I also feel strange. Logically speaking, even if we had a falling out, she wouldn't embarrass me in public. It seems like she has something special to rely on."
"Yes, what can she rely on?" Kang Guang smiled, "Only the Seventh Princess?"
"If the seventh princess is the seventh prince, she can still show off in front of me." Concubine Xian sneered, "Ignore her, she is just a shallow and ignorant thing."
