When Yan Junuo drank that sip of strong tea, she felt her eyes were aching. She pursed her lips and looked at her pale self in the bronze mirror, and touched her belly: "Baby, just stay here, mother wants to Let’s take a chance on our future, and you must stay obedient, you know?”
When Yan Junuo raised her head again, her eyes became firmer than ever: "Get dressed!"
When Yan Junuo went out, he met Xie Suxian. His eyes were cloudy. She guessed that he had not woken up from the hangover last night. She stepped forward and helped arrange her sleeves: "His Royal Highness is busy with official duties, so you should pay more attention to it on weekdays." Watch your body!"
Xie Suxian took another look at Yan Junuo: "You don't look very good today!"
Yan Junuo smiled: "It's hot and I didn't sleep well, so it's okay!"
Xie Suxian nodded: "If you feel tired today, don't go to the palace. The queen doesn't really want to see the people in the prince's house. If you go, you will just get a few looks in vain!"
Yan Junuo looked at Xie Suxian for a long time, and finally responded with a smile: "I promised yesterday to go today, so I still want to go!"
Xie Suxian nodded and left without saying anything else.
When Yan Junuo entered the palace, her heartbeat was always high, but the moment she walked into the entrance of the Queen's Palace, her nervous mood suddenly calmed down.
When she knelt in front of the queen and handed over the account book in her hand, she watched with her own eyes as the queen's face turned uglier bit by bit as the pages of the account book were turned, until she angrily dropped the cup in her hand. on the ground.
"Yan Junuo, do you know what you handed over?" The queen looked coldly at Yan Junuo who was kneeling there, with even a bit of murderous intent in her eyes.
Yan Junuo lowered his head: "I know that these are all evidence of His Highness the Crown Prince's corruption and bribery. I also found them accidentally. Among them are the details of the transaction with the second prince of Northern Xinjiang. Although I am His Highness the Crown Prince, I My wife is also the daughter of the Yan family. The Yan family is loyal and courageous. They are wrapped in horse leather, and their children and ministers..."
"Okay, okay, okay!" The queen was so angry that she was shaking all over, "Someone, go and invite your majesty over!"
The emperor was invited over by the empress just after the morning court. In order to prevent the emperor's anger from affecting Yan Junuo, the empress sent someone to place her in another courtyard while she met the emperor with her account books.
When the emperor took over the account book, apart from being surprised at first, he then very calmly looked at the guilt of the prince one by one in the account book.
When the emperor put down the account book, the queen's eyes became a little cold: "Did your Majesty already know these things?"
The emperor paused, and then said softly: "Who gave you these things?"
"Your Majesty!" The queen's face was full of disbelief, "So you really knew about this a long time ago, right? You just keep protecting him. Do you know how many people have suffered because of him? If he just plunders people's wealth and wealth, that's all. , he also collaborated with the enemy, do you remember that my concubine almost couldn’t come back!"
The emperor sat there in silence, saying nothing.
Seeing the emperor's appearance, the queen felt even colder in her heart: "He is your son, but then he is not your son, right? She is your wife, and I am not your wife, right?"
The emperor looked up at the queen and saw the disappointment in her eyes. He sighed: "I do know the bastard things he did, but I have never thought about deposing the prince!"
"Are you crazy!" The queen looked at the emperor with disbelief in her eyes, "You are already crazy for the sake of that woman who is already dead and can only be hung on the wall! If Ningyuan Hou knows what you have done, he will be How heart-breaking. A family full of loyal and loyal people fought in Northern Xinjiang for you and the world. Almost none of them came back. And then you deceived the world for such a loser. You are the emperor, you are the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty!"
The emperor sat there, saying nothing, just looking at the queen.
The queen looked at the emperor in front of her, almost disappointed. She looked at the emperor: "This time, I will not allow you to protect him like this!"
The queen turned to leave, but was grabbed by the emperor: "Behind the plaque in the imperial study room is my imperial edict to appoint my seventh son, Xie Suyu, as my crown prince!"
The queen was stunned. She looked back at the emperor with a confused face: "What did you say?"
"This world is so important. You understand it, how could I not understand it? I prefer the prince, but I am also the emperor of this world. I can't just do it for myself!" The emperor sat down a little decadently. At that moment, he The straight back suddenly became rickety. The queen looked at it and couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
"The late empress died young, and I have always felt guilty, so I have always favored the prince. Even though I knew he was not an emperor's talent, I still pushed him to that position and raised his heart... It's hard to recover after overturning the water!" The emperor sighed, "It's me. It’s my fault that I asked for it too reluctantly!”
The queen was silent.
"I have always thought that it would be better for him to wake up on his own, leave a way out for himself, and ask himself to leave than for the deposed prince. In this world, from ancient times to the present, no deposed prince has a good ending!" The emperor looked at him. Queen, "It's just that I can deliver this thing to you now. If I keep hiding it, the matter will always be exposed to the ears of the world. By then, it will not only be the prince, but also the prince." I will also be despised by thousands of people!"
The queen looked at the dejected emperor for a long time, and then said: "A traitor is like a victim. Doesn't your majesty even know this truth?"
The emperor smiled bitterly: "How could I not know? It's just that I thought he lost his mother when he was young and was lonely and helpless!"
The queen didn't speak anymore, just watched quietly.
"Give this account book to Dali Temple!" The emperor sighed deeply, and then said, "Let them investigate thoroughly!"
The queen looked at the emperor in front of her and felt that the high-spirited emperor had suddenly become a bit old. Her eyes had lost the spirit they once had and looked more helpless.
The queen didn't speak anymore. The emperor sat for a while and then left.
"Empress..." Huizhu stepped forward and looked at the queen, a little at a loss.
"For so many years, I stood in front of him as a living person. He couldn't see it. All he could see was the person hanging on the wall. Look at the items in the account book, one by one. If One thing was done by Ran'er, what do you think he will do? Will he care about the relationship between father and son?" The Queen sighed deeply, "He is a love interest, but he makes me look like a joke!"
"Empress, after so many years, Your Majesty has taken it lightly. Don't think so!" Huizhu looked at the queen who had no more tears and could only comfort her like this.
