Although Yu Wenjun hated Mrs. Yao very much, it was rare to see his mother and concubine, so this matter was naturally not important, so he asked quietly: "Concubine, do you have any money of your own? Please help your son."
"What? You can't even maintain your life?" Concubine Qin asked in shock. The emperor said that he had never been mean to them.
Yu Wenjun sighed, "You don't know, everything is so expensive. We only have so little money every month, which is not enough to meet the expenses. The dowry of the prince and concubine has been subsidized. Now we have nothing, not even clothes."
It's old. How many days has it been since I sewed something new? Even a good meal has to be considered twice. Several people who used to serve in this house have left two or three because they don't have money to pay monthly bills. The mother, concubine, and son are really
It’s difficult.”
Concubine Qin felt very distressed when she heard this. Fortunately, she planned to help him when she left the palace this time. She brought a box of jewelry and a thousand taels of silver notes and gave them to him.
After returning to the palace, the family banquet was being held in full swing. The whole family was enjoying themselves, singing and dancing, and even the imperial concubine came out to have a drink.
These people were extremely prosperous, but her son, as the eldest son of the emperor, had to live in poverty outside. Concubine Qin really felt uncomfortable. Although the concubine's people invited her over, she excused herself because she felt uncomfortable and went back to the palace.
The imperial concubine knew that she must be feeling aggrieved, so she thought it would be a good idea not to come, so as not to say something that would disappoint everyone. It was rare that the Emperor was happy today.
The two princesses were also brought into the palace today. Emperor Ming Yuan felt sorry for his two granddaughters and gave them rewards. He also urged them to serve their mother and concubine well in the future.
These words reached Concubine Qin’s ears. Concubine Qin couldn’t bear it any longer. When she got to Fangming Palace, she knelt down and cried, “Your Majesty, you rewarded your granddaughters. I am very happy, but the reward given to them cannot be left behind.”
In the hands of Tong Yao, she committed a ridiculous thing, living with someone, and the wild man even injured Jun'er. It was really lawless, and the princess could no longer follow her. I begged the emperor to have mercy and let Jun'er raise the princess.
Otherwise, the royal bloodline will be lost and people will laugh."
The family dinner was originally very harmonious and happy, but when Concubine Qin came out and cried like this, the atmosphere became very cold.
Yuan Qingling glanced at Sisters Meng Xing and Meng Yue, and saw tears in their eyes and hesitation on their faces. She immediately handed Qixi in her arms to Yu Wenhao, then stood up and said to Concubine Qin: "Concubine Qin, what are you saying?
Don’t talk nonsense, when did Mrs. Yao live in a concubine?”
Concubine Qin looked at Yuan Qingling, always minding her complaint about her unwillingness to help when she asked her for help, so she said coldly: "When? Can you not know about this? That wild man not only lived with her, but also injured her
Jun'er." When she said this, her voice became even louder. She looked at Emperor Ming Yuan and cried: "The majestic eldest son was first deprived of his wife, and then injured. This man has lost his face, how can he live?
Your Majesty, even if he makes a lot of mistakes, he is your own flesh and blood after all, and he has changed his ways. Please give him a chance and let the princess return to him. How can you divorce your wife and then let the child go?
Following an abandoned wife?"
Emperor Ming Yuan's face was ashen and he looked at Concubine Qin without saying a word.
The imperial concubine hurriedly got up to smooth things over, "Concubine Qin can't just listen to the rumors and convict Mrs. Yao and hurt the princess's heart. This matter does not exist at all. Come on, get up quickly, sit down and have something to eat together."
Son."
The imperial concubine went down to help her in person, but she was unwilling to get up and cried: "Why is this rumor among the people? Jun'er told me personally that his hand was indeed broken. If the emperor doesn't believe it, he can send someone
Go and investigate, if I have been wronged by my concubine, I will suffer a terrible death!"
After hearing these words, the Supreme Emperor's face darkened and he said calmly: "I'm done drinking. Let's go back to the palace."
Everyone stood up to see each other off. Yuan Qingling asked Lao Wu to escort the Supreme Emperor back. Yu Wenhao didn't want to hear these slanders, so he helped the Supreme Emperor and walked away together.
As soon as the Emperor left, the banquet was effectively over.
Emperor Ming Yuan stood up, dropped the handkerchief he was using to wipe his mouth, and strode away with Eunuch Mu Ru.
"Your Majesty, even tiger poison does not eat its seeds!" Concubine Qin cried loudly.
Everyone present gasped, how could Concubine Qin talk to the emperor like this? The emperor was so kind and righteous to Yu Wenjun that if any other prince or prince had been replaced, he might have died several times.
Yuan Qingling was also very angry. She held the two princesses in her arms and said sternly to Concubine Qin: "Concubine Qin, first of all, I said that Mrs. Yao has never lived with others. Even if it is true, that is not true.
What's the big deal? She is no longer Yu Wenjun's wife. She is free. Will she have to be a widow for Yu Wenjun all her life? As for your suggestion that the princess should be raised by Yu Wenjun, I am the first to object. He has been struggling these days.
Please go and find out what's going on. The princess will only suffer hardship and injustice if she follows him."
Concubine Qin was heartbroken when she saw that Emperor Ming Yuan ignored the matter. When she heard Yuan Qingling's words, she was filled with grief and anger. She stood up, pointed at Yuan Qingling and scolded, "I will tear your mouth apart."
, what about being a widow? Is my son dead? Why are you so cruel? What did my son offend you for? Are you going to chase and bite him like this? He has already ended up like a lost dog and you still won’t let him go?
I suspect that that wild man was arranged by you. You guys, male thieves and female prostitutes, have no shame..."
The imperial concubine interrupted her angrily, "Concubine Qin, please don't talk nonsense. As an elder, how can you say such ignorant words?"
Concubine Qin looked at the imperial concubine sadly and angrily, "Okay, now you are all colluding to bully me, a useless concubine who is in trouble and is not favored. Is this true? You can go out and investigate. If I tell a lie, I will keep it."
I'll be struck by lightning and die!"
After saying that, she stepped forward and grabbed Meng Xing and Meng Yue's hand, "You go with grandma, you can't be with these people, sooner or later you will learn to be bad."
The two sisters were so frightened that they hid in Yuan Qingling's arms. Yuan Qingling protected the two and backed away, but also got angry, "Qin Mufei, don't do this, you are scaring the child."
Concubine Qin did not expect that the two princesses were afraid of her. She would rather believe that outsiders did not believe her as a grandmother. She was deeply hurt, sad and angry and said: "How can you be like this? I am your biological grandmother, that is
Your biological father, who taught you that you are inseparable from each other? Come here, even if grandma returns to the palace, she will send you to your father's house tomorrow, but you can't follow your mother."
After hearing this, Meng Xing burst into tears, "I don't want it, I don't want to go to my father's place, I want to be with my mother."
"Your mother is a bitch!" Concubine Qin was so angry that she didn't care about self-cultivation and started to curse.
Yuan Qingling's face darkened, she turned back to look at Rong Yue and winked, arguing was not her strong point, so she could only choose to let Rong Yue go at this time.
