After appeasing Xiao Yuhan, Emperor Jian'an and Queen Mother Yu went to see King Ping.
"Prince Ping!" Emperor Jian'an was furious and glared at him coldly: "Do you know you are wrong?"
The dagger in King Ping's hand had long been taken away, and his whole body was tied up so tightly that it was difficult to move a finger. A pair of eyes filled with hatred, staring at Emperor Jian'an.
"Bah! What's wrong with me!"
"You set up a trap to frame my brother, deprived him of his throne, and ordered him to guard the imperial mausoleum. Not satisfied with this, you killed my mother and concubine!"
"Is it my turn now?"
"I'm not afraid of you. If you want to kill me, just kill me! Let all the officials in the court see your ugly face, so that all the people can see your true face. It doesn't need future generations, everyone in the world will know you as the new emperor.
You take pleasure in killing your brothers and sisters, and you will be drowned by each one of them with just a drop of saliva!"
After saying that, he used all his strength to spit out the saliva that had been accumulated for a long time. It landed on Emperor Jian'an's clothes.
Emperor Jian'an's nose was so angry that he stepped forward quickly, raised his hand and slapped King Ping hard: "Asshole! How dare you talk to me like this!"
After a crisp sound, there were bright red five-finger marks on Prince Ping's face, and his face was slapped to one side. A trace of blood spilled from his mouth.
King Ping was slapped so hard, but he was not afraid, nor did he lower his head to admit his mistake. He turned around and sneered: "You must be so angry because I said something that hurts you!"
"You treat your brother like this. When you close your eyes in the future, how shameless do you have to go to see your father underground?"
Emperor Jian'an's temples were beating sharply, his face was livid, and he said angrily: "I am not ashamed of my heart! I am not afraid of meeting my father in the future! You are lying and slandering me, and I will never forgive you lightly..."
"Your Majesty, please be patient!" Empress Dowager Yu abruptly interrupted the furious Emperor Jian'an: "Prince Ping is still young, and he has always been obedient and well-behaved. There must be some villain instigating him behind his back, causing him to misunderstand the Emperor."
"The Emperor might as well order someone to summon all the people serving Prince Ping and ask him carefully."
"When we find this villain who caused trouble for nothing, the Emperor will definitely punish him severely! He will serve as a warning to others!"
No matter how angry he is, King Ping cannot move!
At least, you can't move now!
Otherwise, as the emperor, it would be unseemly for him to murder a brother who was underage. The reputation of killing his brothers would be firmly attached to Emperor Jian'an.
…
Queen Mother Yu's words were like an enlightenment!
Emperor Jian'an finally woke up from his anger and glanced at Empress Dowager Yu gratefully: "What the Empress Mother said is that the son and minister were negligent for a while and did not think of this."
Queen Mother Yu glanced at Prince Ping, who wanted to fight her enemy but was restrained and unable to move: "Prince Ping! I want to ask you, who told you that Concubine Li was killed?"
of?"
Queen Mother Yu had accumulated great power. King Ping dared to shout angrily at Emperor Jian'an, but he had no such courage towards Queen Mother Yu. He gritted his teeth and said angrily: "No one said anything. I am not a three-year-old child, let alone a fool. Can't you see that I can't think of it?"
come out?"
"My mother-in-law has been ill for such a long time, and the imperial doctors took turns coming to see my mother-in-law, always prescribing tepid remedies. No matter how much I drank, they didn't work."
"All the maids serving the concubine have been sent away, and they are all replaced by unfamiliar faces. The concubine is worried about the emperor's brother every day, and she is in a gloomy mood. There is no one to help her. How can she get better?"
"This is how the mother-in-law was rubbed bit by bit until she died."
"I knew that one day would come. But I never thought that my mother and concubine would not survive this year before she died. It has only been a year since my father passed away, and my mother and concubine will not be able to survive..."
Tears welled up in his red eyes, and Prince Ping's voice was full of despair and sorrow, as well as utter hatred: "Sheng Che! You have already sat on the throne. This world is yours. My imperial brother cannot compete with you, so I can only
Become a vassal king. Why are you still unwilling to let him go? Why are you still unwilling to let go of my mother and concubine?"
"Do you have to kill all your brothers to feel at ease?"
"You are narrow-minded, careless about every penny, selfish, cruel, mean, unkind, ruthless and unjust..."
Even the saint could not resist such vicious curses!
What's more, as King Ping said, Emperor Jian'an was indeed narrow-minded and had to spend money. After being scolded by King Ping, the anger in Emperor Jian'an's eyes had burned to the extreme, and his face had become extremely gloomy.
"shut up!"
Queen Mother Yu was also angry, her eyes as cold as ice: "Come here, seal Prince Ping's mouth!"
After giving the order, a military envoy and a maid immediately came forward and stuffed a ball of cloth into King Ping's mouth.
Prince Ping almost had sparks shooting out of his eyes, and he was shouting indiscriminately, but he couldn't say anything anymore.
Emperor Jian'an was about to burst into anger, but finally regained his temper. He forced out a stiff smile and said: "I always make my mother troubled, and I am really ashamed of myself."
Queen Mother Yu said calmly: "It is right for the Ai family to worry about you."
"It would be disgraceful to spread the news about Prince Ping's stabbing of Xiao, and it would also bring disgrace to the Tian family. The Ai family has passed on the order, and no one can make false accusations."
"Your Majesty, there is no need to rush to deal with Prince Ping. It will not be too late to make a decision after the matter is investigated clearly."
Emperor Jian'an responded in a deep voice, but a cold light flashed in his eyes.
Queen Mother Yu saw this and felt quite unhappy.
Her words have been made clear. It is one thing to suppress the feudal king, but you must not kill people at will. Otherwise, chaos will definitely arise and there will be endless troubles.
Everything the emperor says and does is in the eyes of everyone. How can he act willfully?
I hope Emperor Jian'an can calm down and understand the truth.
…
Empress Dowager Yu's control over the palace is indeed shocking.
After giving the order, no one dared to talk about Prince Ping stabbing Empress Xiao. Even the ladies who went to the palace to cry, did not dare to say anything after returning to the palace and remained silent.
This matter was suppressed by everyone.
Of course, everyone who should know knew it. People such as Mr. Lu Ge and Mr. Li Ge soon knew about the changes in the palace. Xiao Shangshu was even more anxious in the palace, but it was inconvenient to visit the palace.
Even the King of Ningxia, who was guarding the imperial mausoleum, received a letter the next day.
The person who came to deliver the letter was the personal guard of the King of Ningxia. This personal guard delivered the family letter written by Princess Li Xiangru of Ningxia. The King of Ningxia knew that his biological mother, Princess Li, had died of illness, and his face was as cold as ice. See
I had no intention of opening Li Xiangru’s letter.
The guard mustered up the courage to remind: "Your Highness, the princess has given you instructions, and there is something important in the letter!"
Important matter?
Concubine Li is dead, what else can be done?
The King of Ningxia suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart and opened the letter with a cold face.
After reading the letter, the King of Ningxia's face was filled with clouds, and he was so gloomy that he was almost dripping with water. The letter was held tightly in his hand, with such force that it seemed to crush the letter paper.
Who is secretly causing trouble and trying to harm Prince Ping?
