Eunuch Mu Ru brought people in and lifted Su Concubine up. Su Concubine screamed and struggled hard, but how could she resist the two stout imperial guards?
She was hung up, her voice was stuck in her throat and she couldn't come out, and her feet kept struggling.
Yuan Qingling did not look up, only seeing a pair of brocade white embroidered shoes shaking violently in front of her.
It seemed like a lifetime, or it seemed like just a minute, those feet stopped struggling and hung down.
Yuan Qingling bent over and vomited out.
She felt very sad. No matter whether Concubine Su should die or not, a life disappeared in front of her, and she could not remain indifferent.
Aunt Xi came in and helped her out. After she went out, she sat on the stone steps and breathed heavily, but she felt as if her heart was being held by a big hand, making her feel like she couldn't breathe.
Aunt Qian's hand swept across her back, "Princess, there is no need to feel sad for her. She deserved her death."
Yuan Qingling found that her fingertips were trembling, "I'm not sad for her, I just feel that...it turned out that I did something wrong, and not everyone can go back and start over."
"Let's go, it's time to go back to life with Concubine De." Aunt Xi knew what she was thinking, but Eunuch Mu Ru had been waiting outside for a long time and wanted to go back to life together.
Yuan Qingling stood up, her steps were frivolous.
A shoulder cart was prepared outside the palace gate. She and Concubine De got on the shoulder cart and were carried to Qinghua Hall.
Emperor Ming Yuan met her, Concubine De, and Eunuch Mu Ru at the Qinghua Palace.
Calm words are also there.
Jing Jingyan has already gone to the Palace of Heaven and Earth to find Yu Wenhao. Yu Wenhao has solved the case seven or eight times. He only needs to go to the Forbidden Army to verify and ask a few more people for questioning.
, he has already reported the case.
Concubine De told Concubine Su's final words, and Eunuch Mu Ru and Yuan Qingling confirmed that Concubine De's words were true.
There was not much difference between Su Bin's testimony and her calm report. However, when they went to get Eunuch Li, Eunuch Li had already hanged himself.
An imperial edict came to the darkroom, Wu Shuhua plotted to kill the eighth prince, and executed him!
The case was completed quietly, and there was no need for the Eighth Prince to stand up and give evidence.
Gu Si was derelict and derelict in his duties, so he was demoted and retained.
Yu Wenhao was the most innocent person, but Emperor Ming Yuan did not compensate him, and even scolded him, saying that he was incompetent and failed to investigate such a simple case clearly, and instead got himself into trouble.
The case reached the ears of the queen, but the queen was puzzled. Did Wu Shuhua eat the courage of a bear's heart and a leopard's guts? How dare he kill the current prince? Moreover, Concubine Su was sentenced to death for offending Princess Chu. Princess Chu's identity
Is it so valuable? If you offend, you will die? And the old man Li Eunuch who serves the emperor...
The queen didn't dare to ask. There was clearly something behind the matter. Anyone who used excuses to get past it was because they were meeting someone else. The queen knew the royal taboo. Since it was something that she couldn't ask or talk about, it was best to let it go away.
.
The Eighth Prince's injury is getting better, which is the biggest comfort so far.
Yuan Qing Ling stayed by the eighth prince's side.
Emperor Ming Yuan summoned Prince Rui to the palace, and the three of them talked for a long time in the imperial study.
Late at night, a decree was sent to Prince Ji's Mansion. The Empress Dowager's birthday was approaching, and Prince Ji was ordered to go to Huguo Temple to pray for the Empress Dowager for a month, fast and chant sutras.
This decree makes it impossible to guess the emperor's intention.
In previous years, there were prayers before the Queen Mother's birthday, but most of these were done by the princess or concubines, which lasted only two or three days, but now King Ji had to go in person, and it lasted for a full month.
It's really thought-provoking.
Before leaving the palace, Ling Yan went to the Qiankun Palace to see Yu Wenhao.
Yu Wenhao calmly explained the emperor's disposition. Yu Wenhao was not surprised by the previous ones, but he was a little surprised when King Ji went to the Huguo Temple to pray.
"What do you mean, father? Has Prince Ji found out about this matter?" Yu Wenhao asked.
"We couldn't find it. It was all Eunuch Li who came forward to do it. Prince Ji didn't have any evidence of his involvement. Moreover, Eunuch Li also committed suicide." He said calmly.
Yu Wenhao said: "This is strange. If Prince Ji is not involved, isn't this action a punishment?"
"Isn't it a punishment?" Calm Yan smiled, and his usually cold face also showed a hint of sarcasm, "Huguo Temple is a royal temple, and the abbot, Master Huide, is the old King of Wu, the direct brother of the Supreme Emperor, and Duke Xiaoyao.
We are even more sworn friends. Xiaoyao Gong doesn't want to see Prince Ji. As we all know, the emperor asked him to go to Huguo Temple. Isn't that a punishment? Do you really think that he will devote himself to Buddhism? Tell him to meditate and practice? "
Yu Wenhao nodded, "You are right, but you have to be famous to be a disciple. This matter has nothing to do with him on the surface. Why is my father so angry with him?"
"There is no evidence, which does not mean that the emperor knows nothing. Eunuch Li is the person who serves the emperor. Which prince he favors, how can the emperor not know? Even if he says a few words on weekdays, the emperor can hear it.
Surprisingly, Eunuch Li is very close to Prince Ji. He has a house outside the palace, which was given to him by Princess Ji. He also bought several beautiful maids for him. This matter is very secret, but it does not mean that the emperor does not know about it.
As long as nothing happens, the emperor can endure it, but if something happens, how can he let it go?"
Yu Wenhao couldn't help but feel depressed, "If the father knew in his mind that the boss had done this, and the eighth brother almost lost his life because of this, but he was only allowed to fast for a month at Huguo Temple, what kind of treatment is this?"
Calmly said calmly: "The Emperor has his own intentions, so don't speculate too much. Just be your Jingzhao Governor. At this juncture, it is better to do less than to do more. The happier you are, Your Majesty."
The more you pay attention to it, you know the so-called governance of a country based on stability and benefiting the people."
Yu Wenhao carefully tasted the meaning of his words. For a moment, he couldn't taste it, so he raised his head and stared at him, "Can't you speak more straightforwardly?"
Jing Lingyan was startled, "Are you uneducated? Just understand it yourself, why don't you have to be more straightforward?"
"I don't want to understand, I have a pain in the butt." Yuwen Hao was furious. These things make people anxious and anxious, so what else can they understand? Just say what you have to say.
Ling Yan frowned, with a look of disgust on his face. As the imperial minister, he thought that in order to accommodate the prince, a martial artist, he had lowered his cultural accomplishments again and again. He didn't even dare to drag Wen for fear that his donkey brain would not be able to understand.
Thinking of such a simple and straightforward hint, he still didn't understand.
He calmly said: "As the prefect of Jingzhao, you are in charge of the public security, prisons, and people's livelihood of the capital. You are also in charge of the gardens and houses of the capital. You are in charge of Koufen, Yongye, and Yintian. You are in real contact with the people. Do your best.
It is your duty to earn a reputation for yourself. If you gain a reputation for benefiting the people, no matter who plots against you, the emperor will have to consider it carefully. This is one of self-protection. The second... I won't say it anymore, that's it.
It's meaningless, you can make your own decision anyway, I'm leaving."
Jingjingyan walked away waving his folding fan.
Yu Wenhao stared at his back, why are you swinging a folding fan in this cold weather?
