The palace maid reported to Empress Chu. Empress Chu heard that Concubine Xian had kidnapped the princess and had stabbed her. She was so frightened that she rolled her eyes and wished she could pass out just like that.
She knew that Concubine Xian was a cruel person. It could be seen from the fact that she stabbed the Queen Mother that in Concubine Xian's heart, the Su family was always the most important.
"Empress, please save the princess. The princess is frightened and has been crying. Concubine Xian has gone crazy. She will really hurt the princess. Concubine Xian said to invite the crown prince to come and let the princess go!" The palace maid knelt down.
He kowtowed on the ground and cried.
Empress Chu took a hard breath and hurriedly ordered in a deep voice to go down and invite the emperor.
It is up to the emperor to decide whether to invite the crown princess into the palace or not.
Unexpectedly, Emperor Ming Yuan and other important ministers were discussing matters in the imperial study. It was strictly forbidden for anyone to disturb them. It was because they were discussing the matter of the prince's court meeting in the morning on the eighth day of the lunar month, which was very important. Therefore, Eunuch Mu Ru was stopped.
Empress Chu heard that the emperor was not disappointed, so she had to order someone to prepare for the meeting. She went there in person, but she only felt vomiting blood. If she had known that today would be like this, she would never have dared to plot against Concubine Xian.
Who knew she could do such cruel and heartless things for the Su family.
For the sake of safety, on the way to Qingyu Palace, she asked someone to come out of the palace and invite the Crown Princess to come.
In Qingyu Palace, none of the newly dispatched guards dared to move, for fear that Concubine Xian might accidentally make a mistake and hurt the princess.
Concubine Xian's heart was mostly in despair at this moment.
When she heard Yu Wenling say that no one in the Su family died in the fire, she knew there must be a conspiracy.
How could she believe that the entire Su family's house could be burned down without any casualties? How despicable was the life of her natal family? Since the emperor chose to conceal the truth about the death of the Su family, he would definitely not stand up for the Su family. She gave birth to
Son, but the Su family was almost wiped out, and she died without the face to face her ancestors.
This anger, this grievance, this grief and anger made her whole body tremble uncontrollably. She thought that her son had ascended to the position of prince, and that the Su family would finally rise one day, but unexpectedly, it was the beginning of the Su family's nightmare.
.
She failed to teach her son well, and she was sorry for her father's family.
As for her daughter, the emperor was cruel enough to marry her to a businessman, humiliating her face in this way. The emperor's suppression of the Su family had reached the point of being lawless.
Not even the Queen Mother is on her side, how can she not feel despair?
In this case, it is better to die together than to live without dignity like this.
However, she was unwilling to do so, so why was she treated so unfairly?
Yu Wenling was pressed to the ground, and her whole body was so cold that she lost consciousness. The only pain she could feel was the cold and stinging pain where the hairpin was pressed.
She felt that she was going to die at the hands of her mother-in-law. She was filled with fear and grief, but she couldn't even cry.
Concubine Xian let go of her hair, stroked it gently, and said in a quiet tone: "Don't be afraid, Concubine Mother has nothing to do. Your father will not let me go. I have come to the end, but even if I fight hard, I will not let you go."
If you take the life of your mother and concubine, you have to ask your father to give justice to the Su family."
Yu Wenling said with difficulty: "How can we repay the Su family justice? Do you want my father to deal with the fifth brother? The Su family is your relative, and you gave birth to me and the fifth brother."
Concubine Xian shook her head, her tone full of resentment, "No, your father will not deal with your fifth brother, and he will not depose the prince. Yes, you are all my children. I gave birth to you, and you have been from the moment you were born.
They started to owe me, but I also owe my parents, and the Su family. The Su family has suffered such a shame and humiliation today. Even if I die under Jiuquan, I will not be able to see them. I can only exchange my life for you.
According to the emperor's decree, the Su family must be promoted to a noble title, given a luxurious house, and restored to its reputation. That's all the mother and concubine want."
She lowered her head and whispered into Yu Wenling's ear softly but stubbornly: "You know? This world is really unfair. When my mother-in-law married your father, your grandmother was already the queen of the Supreme Emperor.
Regarding the woman who preceded your fifth brother in the Chu family, if your royal grandmother cared about the blood and blood ties, she could have made her mother the princess. When your father ascends the throne, then our Su family will have a queen mother.
, a queen, what an honor? But your imperial grandmother did not do this. The mother-in-law endured for many years, always hoping that she would show some affection, but she did not. It is chilling. There are such unfilial people in the world.
, but in the end I hurt her, and I became an unfilial, unfaithful and unjust person, is that fair?"
Her breath sprayed on Yu Wenling's ears. It smelled like blood, as if she had bitten her lip and it was bleeding. It also had some rotten smell, which made Yu Wenling subconsciously push her face towards the stone steps.
Turning it up made her cheeks hurt.
The resentful and unwilling tone made her feel even more panicked.
When Chu later arrived, he saw this scene. He was so shocked that his scalp was numb. He got off the carriage and walked over quickly, saying: "Xianfei, please don't be confused. Let go of the princess."
Concubine Xian looked at Empress Chu, with a smile uglier than crying, "It's you who are here, isn't the emperor coming?"
Empress Chu stretched out her hands to press it, looked at the hairpin in her hand and said carefully: "The emperor is discussing things with his ministers in the royal study. He will be here in a moment. Let go of the princess first. If we have something to talk about, she is yours."
When you kiss your daughter, you can't hurt her."
"It has nothing to do with you. You can go and ask someone to bring Yuan Qingling into the palace." Concubine Xian said coldly.
Empress Chu really felt that she was a coward. People like Concubine Xian should have been eliminated long ago, but now she had to endure her weird disrespect.
And she had to coax her, "Don't worry, I have sent someone to invite the Crown Princess. She will be here soon. You let go of the princess first. She is lying like this on such a cold ground. Don't you feel bad for her?"
When I saw this, I felt extremely distressed."
When Yu Wenling saw the queen coming, she couldn't help but burst into tears, "Mother, please save me."
She just raised her head a little, but Concubine Xian pushed it down with one hand. She hit her forehead on the stone steps, bleeding profusely. She clenched her fists in pain and did not dare to move anymore.
When Empress Chu saw this, she was so frightened that if she continued to kowtow like this, her face would really be disfigured, and she would get married soon.
Qingyu Palace is now the focus of the palace. Something happened here, and the news spread quickly throughout the palace. Concubines De and Lu came over one after another. They were frightened when they saw this situation.
The imperial concubine said angrily: "Xianfei, you are so brave. You hurt the queen mother first, and then you want to hurt the princess. Are you really desperate for your life?"
Concubine Xian looked at the concubine with evil eyes and sneered twice, "I don't know if I can save my head today. What's the use of this life?"
Concubine De came from a family of military commanders and had been very courageous since she was a child, so she hurriedly said: "Concubine Xian, the princess is timid. Let her go and don't scare her. I will take her place. It will be the same if you point the hairpin at me."
Concubine Xian hates Concubine De from the bottom of her heart. She is very familiar with Yuan Qing Ling, and she has said many flattering words in private. She cannot give birth to a son, so she always wants to interfere in other people's affairs. She is a shameless bitch.
!
So, when Concubine De said this, she grabbed Yu Wenling's back collar and lifted her head up, saying sullenly: "Okay, come here, come and exchange with her."
