Chapter 519: Dusk (Leader of Xinyun Qianyin)
Emperor Jingming also had a headache.
Although he is the emperor, he has to take care of the old mother's mood.
In Ci Ning Palace, the queen mother has woken up.
People are no better than young people when they are older. Last night, the queen mother passed a doctor because of her hand pain. Although she slept with a soothing decoction, she still looked a little bit tired.
The arrival of Emperor Jingming made the empress dowager feel a bit unusual: "The Ai family remembers that the emperor should be in the upper court at this time, how come here?"
Emperor Jingming sat down next to the Queen Mother, took a look at her face, and asked, "How did the Queen Mother sleep last night?"
"Sleep well." The queen mother couldn't stretch her eyebrows, and accelerated the speed of turning the Buddhist beads in her hand.
Emperor Jingming was silent for a while and said, "My son punished Rongyang today."
The queen mother stopped turning the hand of the Buddhist beads, and asked calmly, "What happened to Rongyang?"
The emperor used the word "punishment", which shows that Rong Yang made a lot of mistakes.
The queen mother understood very well that the emperor was a rare and generous emperor, and he would punish Rongyang because of his excesses.
"The mother Duo next to the empress is Wumiao—"
The queen mother shrank her eyes, and suddenly thought of something: Speaking of which, she has come to the present from waking up, and it seems that she has never seen Mother Duo.
Madam Duo is a slave girl who can enter the Queen Mother's house, but she is not half-step away from the Queen Mother's house. Missing for a while will not attract attention. Mother Duo was ordered to visit the fourteenth princess last night. She did not return overnight. The people around the Queen Mother knew about it, but she had not reported it to the Queen Mother.
No one wants the master to add to the obstacles when he wakes up.
Emperor Jingming thought about some things that he could not hide from the Queen Mother, and said frankly: "Actually, my son has secretly sent people to investigate since the fifteenth time when Chen Meiren was poisoned, because it is impossible for a little beauty to get the grass. There must be someone behind her... ..After two visits, I found Mother Duo’s head. Just last night, Mother Duo went to visit Fourteen, and she revealed the fox tail..."
The queen mother listened quietly and asked, "What does this have to do with Rongyang?"
Speaking of this, the only thing she frowned, seeming to think of something: "The Aijia remembered that it was Rongyang who introduced Mother Duo into the palace. Did the emperor blame Rongyang for this?"
Emperor Jingming smiled bitterly: "If only to introduce Mother Duo into the palace, the son would scold Rong Yang a few words at most, how could he punish her. Rong Yang got poisonous insects from Mother Duo and used it to kill Princess Yan's mother. Quietly raising the poisonous insects. It's not that I didn't give her a chance, but she refused to admit it..."
"How does the emperor punish Rongyang?"
Emperor Jing Ming paused.
He said so much to give the Queen Mother a psychological preparation, so that Rong Yang would not be divided between mother and child.
"The son demoted Rongyang to the common people."
The queen mother changed slightly.
Emperor Jingming raised his heart.
The queen mother had no children in her life, adopted him and Rongyang, and treated Rongyang as a daughter. He was worried that the queen mother could not accept this fact.
The Queen Mother sighed: "Rong Yang has committed such a big mistake. He really deserves to be punished. The emperor did it right."
Emperor Jingming breathed a sigh of relief: "Just don't blame me, the queen."
The empress dowager glanced at Emperor Jingming: "The Aijia hasn't been confused yet, how can you blame you? It's just that the emperor can find out that Rongyang has harmed Princess Yan's mother. I don't know what role Princess Yan played in this?"
Emperor Jingming said: "This time it was indeed thanks to Princess Yan that she was able to pull out the messy Mother Duo and find out the truth about Su's death."
The queen mother squeezed the beads bracelet and said lightly: "Princess Yan is indeed a capable person. She was also responsible for curing Fuqing at the time. Don’t forget, the emperor."
Emperor Jingming smiled and nodded: "My son remembers everything."
"The emperor delayed the upper court because of Rongyang's affairs. This is not good, and it cannot be so in the future."
"Son knows."
The queen mother moved her eyelids: "The family is exhausted, let the emperor go busy."
Emperor Jingming stood up: "Mother, then you rest well."
When Emperor Jingming left, the Queen Mother threw the Buddhist beads bracelet on the ground.
The round sandalwood beads hit the floor, making a crisp sound, and the beads scattered all over the floor.
In Cining Palace, everyone was silent.
After a while, the person who had been ordered by the Queen Mother to be on her behalf stepped back and asked her confidant mother: "Mother Duo went to visit the fourteenth princess, did not come back?"
"No."
The queen mother pursed the corners of her mouth and asked, "Did anything unusual happen last night?"
The confidant hesitated.
"Are you still hiding from Laijia?"
The confidant mother hurriedly said: "Returning to the Queen Mother, it was the emperor who instructed not to mention to you..."
The queen mother sneered: "Are you all dead for the Aijia? Do you have to wait for the emperor to suddenly come and tell the Aijia?"
The confidant mother bowed her head and said: "Last night your hand hurts and passed the imperial doctor, and it reached the emperor's ears. The emperor and the queen came over after you rested..."
The queen mother raised her eyebrows: "The emperor and the queen came together?"
"Yes...."
The queen mother twisted her eyebrows, her face changed, and finally sighed: "The Ai family is old."
It turned out that the so-called dispute between the empress and the queen was to show her a scene.
"Fu'ai's family, let's go for a walk, Ai's family wants to breathe."
In front of Princess Rongyang, several servants stopped and reminded: "Please pack your things and move out as soon as possible. The emperor only gave one day, and the princess mansion should be sealed up by this time tomorrow..."
Princess Rongyang glared at the talking servant, and said angrily: "Get out!"
Seeing the princess Rongyang walked into the gate of the princess mansion in despair, the servant took a sip on the ground: "Bah, I thought I was still a high princess, what a thing!"
King Yan did a good job, and he decided to support King Yan more in the future.
Princess Rongyang moved forward, walking on a familiar road.
The people in the Long Princess's Mansion had already received the news at this time, all of them looked earthy, and they had no courage to surround themselves.
"Hui Zhen!" Princess Rongyang shouted.
A middle-aged woman hurried out.
Princess Rongyang slapped one ear and asked sharply, "Are you dead? How was the Gu worm found by the servant?"
The middle-aged woman knelt down and sobbed at the feet of Princess Rongyang: "The servants don’t know what’s going on. When you left, a team of servants came and said that they were ordered to search the princess’s mansion. The eyes of the sky went straight to the servant's house and turned the Gu worm out..."
"Impossible, there is someone who opens the sky!" Princess Rongyang said with a pale face.
When she returned to her familiar home, she gradually calmed down, but she felt more desperate.
The imperial decree has been laid down, and she can't find the queen mother to intercede, and she may be hopeless if she wants to turn over...
"His Royal Highness, let's pack things early, otherwise all the belongings in the mansion will be sealed."
Emperor Jingming still left a way for Princess Rongyang to stay alive, at least taking away the things from the mansion, enough for her to not worry about money for a lifetime.
The people in the Long Princess's Mansion hurriedly began to pack things, and when the sun was westward, the servants hurriedly reported: "The general is here."
