"What does this matter have to do with me? There were Concubine An's jewelry at the scene of your assassination, but there were none of mine. You can't be so rude to me!" Yuzhi frowned and her voice continued to increase.
"You just framed me and you forgot so quickly? I don't want your head on your neck now, but you must put a plaque on your head." Mu Ci said, and also wrote a plaque and hung it on the jade.
Fat neck.
If Yuzhi refused to obey, Xiao Zhuozi would beat her until she obeyed.
In the end, Yuzhi's skills were not as good as others, and he was injured again, so he could only be dragged around the harem with An Rong by several nuns.
When the concubines who were watching saw this scene, they couldn't help but sigh at Qiu Lan's methods.
He also said that he was weak and could only use this method to make An Rong and Yuzhi suffer. This kind of humiliation was more vicious than killing those two people, right?
Qiu Lan's methods were even more vicious than Mu Ci's.
Unexpectedly, the emperor had already issued an oral order that Qiu Lan was the one who suffered, and she had full authority to handle the matter. Even Mu Ci was just cooperating with Qiu Lan. The person who came up with such a vicious method was not Mu Ci.
The news that An Rong and Yuzhi were being dragged around the harem like animals quickly spread throughout the harem. Many palace servants and servants came over to watch the fun and pointed at An Rong and Yuzhi.
Yuzhi was so embarrassed and angry that she looked at An Rong, who looked dull, and whispered: "It's all you!"
If you don't have the ability, don't think of ways to harm Mu Ci, but now you have dragged her into suffering this crime. How will she hold her own in this harem from now on?
"It's too late to regret now." An Rong looked at Yuzhi coldly.
Yuzhi's scalp was numb when An Rong saw her, and she didn't dare to say anything.
The palace was very big, and Qiu Lan wanted to make An Rong and Yuzhi look embarrassed. She deliberately slowed down and supervised them personally on horseback, just to make An Rong remember her forever.
If you dare to harm her, you will never die.
When An Guogong heard this rumor, he thought it was just a rumor. When he rushed to the palace and saw An Rong being humiliated by Qiu Lan, he shouted angrily: "Bitch, let go of the imperial concubine!"
"Who are you? I follow the emperor's instructions to punish the murderer who wants to harm me. Why should I let go of Concubine An, a poisonous woman?" Qiu Lan looked at An Guogong coldly.
She really didn't know the person blocking her way, and the person who could speak for An Rong was definitely not a good person.
"How noble is the imperial concubine? How can a pariah be humiliated? If you let go of the imperial concubine now, I can leave you a way to live..."
Before An Guogong finished speaking, Qiu Lan ordered people to continue dragging Concubine An and Yuzhi forward.
An Rong didn't expect Guild An Guo to suddenly appear. At this moment, she only felt humiliated.
Originally she thought that she was respected as a noble concubine and no one would dare to act wildly on her. But today she was humiliated by Qiu Lan in public. This was something she never expected.
She didn't want Duke An Guo to see her embarrassment, so she walked forward faster.
When Qiu Lan saw this, a sneer appeared on the corner of his lips.
It seems that An Rong also knows what shame is, otherwise she would not be embarrassed to see others.
An Guogong also saw the change in An Rong's mood. His face was gloomy, and he went to the imperial study room to find Dugu Liancheng for comment.
Dugu Liancheng was dealing with government affairs. When he heard that Duke An was coming, he said quietly: "Why are you so anxious to see me?"
"Concubine An is a first-class concubine, but she was humiliated in public by a woman who appeared out of nowhere. Doesn't the emperor just ignore her?!" An Guogong was heartbroken.
An Rong's disgrace is equivalent to the Anguo Duke's disgrace. The An family's century-old reputation, how can it be ruined in vain?
"My dear, please be patient. Miss Qiu is my distinguished guest. She was assassinated while she was out of the palace. I gave her absolute rights. Once the real culprit is found, she can be killed directly. After Miss Qiu's verification, it was found that An
The imperial concubine paid for her to be killed, but Miss Qiu did not take Concubine An's life because of it. It was an act of mercy outside the law. The emperor broke the law and was guilty of the same crime as the common people. No one is exempt, and Concubine An is no exception. Aiqing is the minister of the imperial court, so
There is no reason why I should teach Aiqing the truth." Dugu Liancheng said slowly.
An Guogong still wanted to make a desperate struggle: "The matter has not been investigated clearly. It is too hasty to convict Concubine An based on such evidence. Your Majesty..."
"I have said that this matter has been handed over to Miss Qiu, and I will not intervene. If you have nothing else to do, you can leave." Dugu Liancheng did not want to listen to An Guogong's preaching anymore, so he issued an expulsion order.
Duke An Guo glanced at Dugu Liancheng, who had a calm expression. If he had been full of food, he could only swallow it hard at this moment.
As soon as he left the imperial study, An Guogong's expression darkened.
Jin Shang became increasingly arbitrary and arbitrary, and did not listen to the suggestions of the court officials at all. To be precise, the old ministers who had previously disobeyed Jin Shang were removed one by one by Jin Shang.
Today's imperial court is full of today's favorite ministers, and there are only a few old ministers like him.
Today, the Council will allow an unknown commoner to ride on Concubine An's head. This will not only humiliate Concubine An, but also humiliate him and the An family!
The Marquis of Ningchang is indeed right. Now that his wings have grown, he will eradicate these old ministers one by one.
Is he the one the emperor wants to eradicate next?
After leaving the palace, An Guogong was not in a hurry to return to the palace, but went to a garden on the outskirts of Beijing.
When he saw Dugu Lianyun playing chess alone, he fixed his eyes.
Dugu Lianyun raised his head and looked at An Guogong: "What do you have to say?"
"This world should belong to you, young master." An Guogong sat down opposite Dugu Lianyun.
He also accidentally met Dugu Lianyun near Dingshan Temple and invited him to Beijing as a guest.
After this battle, he suddenly felt that he was not worthy of his loyalty. He was most afraid that Dugu Liancheng would try to eradicate him next, so he had to take precautions early.
"Facts have proved that Liancheng has means and strategies. Even Jincheng was recovered by Liancheng. Now there is no one around me. If you have second thoughts about him, give up as soon as possible." Dugu Lianyun saw through An Guogong's intentions at a glance.
thought.
Since Jincheng was captured by Dugu Liancheng and Dugu Yun's whereabouts were unknown, he was also a little disheartened.
Sometimes he had to admit that Dugu Liancheng was a good emperor, brave and resourceful, and patriotic and caring for the people. Under Dugu Liancheng's governance, Daxia was peaceful and the people were safe. What reason did he have to provoke civil strife?
If Dugu Liancheng hadn't decisively attacked and ended the civil strife in Jincheng, I don't know what Daxia would be like now.
"Young Master was originally a great man with great ambitions, why did he become so decadent?" An Guogong disagreed.
Dugu Lianyun was definitely not willing to give in, but the reality made Dugu Lianyun lower his head.
As long as a person still has ambition, he can burn up his fighting spirit, and he can push Dugu Lianyun to the top in the future.
