"Wu Xin used his troops poorly and suffered numerous defeats in the attack on Mount Li. I still need to go out and rectify the rebellion myself. This is dereliction of duty. Instead of relieving me of my worries, it only adds to the chaos." Fu Jingheng announced, "From the first-level general to protect the country, he was demoted to the third-level protector of the country.
General. Serve for half a year. Do you agree? If not, the death penalty will remain."
"I'm convinced." Wu Xin said.
"Liu Yingfu." Fu said.
"Yes. Liu Yingfu is here."
"Liu Yingfu mismanaged the Military Aircraft Department, and asked Nanfan Xinzuo to sneak into the Military Aircraft Department, which indirectly caused many assassinations on me, and indirectly caused Fu Changlin's left knee disability, which is still being treated with acupuncture." Fu Jingcheng said slowly: "I have already killed you before.
The official position was reduced from the first rank to the third rank. Today it is reduced from the third rank to the fourth rank. The salary is suspended for half a year. Do you accept it? If you don't accept it, the death penalty will be maintained."
"Submit." Liu Yingfu lowered his head.
Wen Jin realized that her trial was coming next. She took out the phoenix seal from her sleeve and rubbed the phoenix carving pattern on the phoenix seal with her fingers, feeling quite attached to it.
Meng Wan's heart was beating wildly. When she saw the phoenix seal on the queen's hand, her nervous palms became sweaty. That phoenix seal would soon belong to her, Meng Wan!
Fu Jingheng took a step towards Wenjin with his dragon boots and said hoarsely: "Su Wenjin."
Wen Jin's heart ached, "Su Wenjin is here."
Fu Jingheng felt a fishy sensation in his throat, and the smell of blood filled his mouth. He called her again: "Su Wenjin..."
It was so hard to say it, it turned out that it was so difficult to take away her things. He could take Zhang Yuanpan from her for the sake of the country very sensibly, and he could also leave her and the dead puppy behind very sensibly.
He married Duanmu Fu. Now, he can no longer take away her things so easily. He said he would never give up on her again, and now he wants to break his promise again.
This time, in addition to the sake of the country and the stability of the court, more importantly, it was to save her life.
"Your Majesty," Wen Jin's eyes were a little hot, "Su Wenjin is here."
"Su Wenjin is the adopted daughter of the former regent Wang Wenguang and the traitor. King Wen rebelled and the situation was bad. He should be punished for his crime, and his daughter should be implicated in the crime." Fu Jingheng's voice trembled, "I remember that you supported me when I was a child.
The friendship of companionship will be my contribution to the birth and raising of children when I reach adulthood. The death penalty can be avoided."
Wen Jin nodded, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for not killing me."
"However, after you bear the surname Wen, your purpose of approaching me is ambiguous and cannot be verified. The positions of political opponents and mine are incompatible. The daughter of a sycophant is not worthy of being a queen." Fu Jingheng's heart seemed to be slowly torn apart, "Now, in view of my superiors
The daughter who had just divorced and abandoned the Duanmu Mansion in the past month, if she divorced her for the second time, it would cause turmoil in the court for the people, so she stopped her to seize the seal, and supported Meng Wan to act as a concubine and co-manage the Sixth Palace on behalf of the Queen. When the time is right, she can
Meng's name has been rectified. Su Wenjin, do you... accept it? If you don't accept it, you still maintain... the death penalty."
Wen Jin choked up and said: "Political opponents cannot be reconciled. The daughter of a sycophant is not worthy of being a queen. I will stop my wife and seize the seal. Su Wenjin surrenders."
"Yes. Okay." Fu Jingheng tightened his hands and said in a deep voice: "Come here, please take off the phoenix robe, take off the phoenix crown, and hand over the phoenix seal. From now on, the imperial family has severed all ties with her, and I have nothing to do with her anymore.
Guan Li. Expelled Su Wenjin from the home, the palace, and the country. From now on, you are no longer a husband and wife, no longer an emperor, and you are no longer a Guangli citizen. You will not be able to step into your homeland for eternity, and you will not return to your roots as a fallen leaf.
Appreciate this."
Wen Jin felt suffocated in her heart and couldn't help but tremble. She was expelled from the country. She was no longer a Guangli citizen. Then what was she? Not only was she expelled from the home and the palace, but now she was expelled from the country. She would not be able to enter it forever.
Half a step away from her homeland, fallen leaves will not return to their roots. Where is she going? She kowtowed to the emperor and said, "I thank the Lord for your kindness. I will obey your will. I will never step into my homeland forever. Fallen leaves will not return to my roots. From now on, there will be no more relations."
, no longer a husband and wife, nor an emperor and empress."
Meng Wan immediately knelt down to plead for Wen Jin, "Your Majesty, the Queen is so delicate and frail that she is expelled from the country. Where can she go? How can a weak woman survive? Your Majesty's punishment is too severe. Please
Your Majesty, please be merciful! It is enough to keep my queen in the cold palace, why should I be so heartless! My queen is innocent!"
Wu Xin said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, Concubine Meng is indeed a virtuous person. She actually interceded for the late empress."
Fu Jingheng put his body on his back, stopped looking at Wen Jin, and said coldly: "The phoenix seal is handed over to Meng Wan, the daughter of Meng Ren of the Ministry of Rites, a sage recommended by all officials."
Wen Jin knelt there quietly, and several palace servants came over to unbutton and take off the phoenix robe that she had worn so neatly when she came.
Being a homeless person with no identity and no country, I feel uncomfortable and unwilling to give up the Phoenix Seal to Meng Wan, who has mediocre qualifications. However, because of the extraordinary achievements he has made, he is highly praised, but he can't speak.
Wen Jin only had a light gray middle coat on her body. The palace servants took off the phoenix crown on her neck. Her hair hung down on her shoulders like a waterfall. The hair was somewhat curved by the phoenix crown. Her hair was messy and her makeup was messy.
Flowers were spent, and my middle coat was stained with mud. It had rained, and the ground was wet. After kneeling for a long time, my knees were also wet.
Wu Xin and Liu Yingfu were so happy to see her being stripped off her phoenix robe. They were so happy that the witch finally stepped down and the empress they recommended finally got the phoenix seal.
Perhaps the palace man couldn't bear to witness the death of Feng Wei, so he spoke to Wen Jin in a very soft voice: "My queen, my queen, are you cold? Do you mind my slave's clothes? I'll give them to you."
Wen Jin shook his head, "I'm not cold. Thank you. Don't cause trouble for yourself. The further away from me at this time, the better."
The palace man said softly again, "Give the phoenix seal to the slave. I'm sorry, the slave is under orders. I'm sorry."
"Well, there's no need to be sorry. It's not your problem." Wen Jin handed the phoenix seal, which was warmed by his own hands, to the waitress. The moment he handed it over, his eyes were filled with tears. He was unwilling to give in, really.
Not willing to give in.
The maid neatly folded the phoenix robe and placed it on the tray, as well as the phoenix crown and phoenix seal. She walked to Meng Wan and handed it to Meng Wan's nanny. The nanny held the tray while the maid held it.
He took out the phoenix seal and handed it to Meng Wan, "My dear concubine, please accept the phoenix seal and take charge of the Sixth Palace."
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..." Meng Wan coyly said, "Well... I'm afraid Wan'er doesn't have the ability to lead the harem. Wan'er... Wan'er is really afraid that she is not qualified."
Fu Jingheng pressed his thin lips into a thin line. Everyone was standing, except for his wife, who was kneeling. One day, in the near future, he would make everyone present kneel to his woman, and he would make everyone kneel to him.
Su Wenjin, he wants everyone to recognize her Su Wenjin, "Give it time. Do it for a while and see if you are qualified. I am willing to ask you to try."
"Okay. Thank you for your grace." Meng Wan said shyly.
"My Majesty, you are too modest. Your Majesty, you exposed the tens of thousands of kilograms of gunpowder stones buried by Wenguang in Lishan Mountain. You saved the king, saved the court, saved hundreds of thousands of Fu family troops, and saved tens of thousands of people in Lishan Mountain. This commander
The person in the harem is none other than you!" Wu Xin praised.
"Yes, you deserve it." Liu Yingfu also agreed.
"In this case, I will accept it. I will do my best to lead the harem sisters to live and work in peace and contentment, and solve the king's problems." Meng Wan picked up the phoenix seal from the tray, put it at the bottom of her sleeve, and succeeded in a flash.
, the palms of her hands were full of sweat, and her vest was also sweaty. She was excited and happy, she was the acting queen, and in the near future, the king would rectify her name and become the real queen!
Wen Jin suddenly lost his composure.
Tears flowed down uncontrollably the moment Meng Wan picked up her phoenix seal and put it into her sleeve.
Wen Jin cried uncontrollably. She put her arms on the flower bed. It was as if all the strength in her body had been taken away. She couldn't even hold herself up.
She was ruined, she had nothing, she was even expelled from the country. She wanted to divorce her child. She stepped down.
She cried bitterly, and her tears fell on the fallen leaves on the ground drop by drop. She didn't know what she was sad about. Maybe she was sad about the phoenix seal, robe, and crown that had been taken away, or maybe she was sad about the heartless sentence "The fallen leaves never return to their roots."
It was given to me by someone who didn't care when I tore up the amulet. What should I keep it for? It would be better if I died of illness.
Fu Jingheng heard her crying, turned around, and saw her long hair spread over her shoulders, kneeling on the ground helplessly. There were tears in his eyes. He pushed the dragon boots forward half a step and asked Zi Shu to hold him back.
His sleeves were off, and he stopped in his tracks, his eyes filled with scarlet red.
He saved her life, but destroyed her heart, and her silent cries broke his heart.
Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival. What did he do to her? He did not hold her in his arms to comfort her. Instead, he said calmly: "Sister Zhao, the first empress violated her etiquette in front of the emperor. Please help her back to the middle palace and pack her properly. When the time comes,
Leave the palace before leaving."
"Yes." Sister Zhao helped Wen Jin up.
Wen Jin, like a heartless person, followed Sister Zhao with a pale face. Meng Wan's voice sounded from behind.
"Your Majesty, the Battle of Lishan is a great victory. Wan'er has prepared a celebration banquet in the imperial garden. Your Majesty, the generals and all the heroes, why not get drunk before resting." Meng Wan said, "It's a good time to celebrate. After winning the battle, we have to
Be more lively and go get rid of bad luck."
Wu Xin, Liu Yingfu and others all thanked Meng Wan for her kindness and thoughtfulness.
Fu Jingheng said, "I will not return home until I get drunk with all my beloved friends tonight. Today's business is over, you can go back first. See you at the dinner."
Everyone dispersed.
Fu Jingheng sat on the dragon chair, opened the drawer of the dragon table, took out the glass vase containing one hundred and seventy stars and placed it on the table, took out Wen Jin's small palace fan and placed it next to the inkstone, and took Wen Jin's cloak
Come out and hang from the back of your chair.
After the people in the courtyard had finished leaving, he stood up, lifted up his clothes slightly, and quickly rushed to the middle palace. The people walking in the palace were kneeling on the ground. When he saw Sister Zhao walking out of the house with tea, he asked: "Where is she?"
Where?"
Sister Zhao pointed to the room, "Sit by the small window, kneeling until your knees are muddy. My lord, please go and see her."
Fu Jingheng touched the door panel, retracted it, pondered for a moment, and pushed the door open. He saw her sitting by the window with her back to him in the evening autumn wind. Her long hair reaching her waist was scattered there. Her body was too thin to hold a hand.
