Chapter 876
Before Prince Cheng was announced to the palace, Eunuch Xie quietly found someone to report what happened in Queen Wei's palace to the Queen Mother.
Empress Dowager Liang sneered: "Ling Yu hasn't been convicted yet! Everyone is rushing out to destroy her completely! Do you really think that the Ai family is dead?"
Aunt Wei sighed: "This Princess Yi seems to be a smart person, how come she gives so many tricks to others!"
Empress Dowager Liang also said angrily: "This child is too willful! He turned a deaf ear to the Ai family's words!"
"Ai Jia has mentioned something to her before, asking her to have a good relationship with Tian'er, but do you think she has taken Ai Jia's words to heart?"
The eldest palace maid Bai Cui had always been favored by Ling Yu. After hearing this, she smiled cleverly and said: "The Queen Mother, you may have wronged Princess Yi by saying this!"
"Didn't you ask her to treat King Yi's leg before? Do you think King Yi can stand up now?"
"I think the reason why Princess Yi didn't consummate the marriage with King Yi is because she needs treatment! Do you think that King Yi couldn't stand up before and looked bad every time he entered the palace? Maybe that will also affect... .”
Bai Cui blushed as she spoke.
Empress Dowager Liang glared at her and scolded her with a smile: "You are an unmarried woman, and you are not afraid of making people laugh when you say these things!"
Bai Cui giggled: "Empress Dowager, aren't you worried about Princess Yi? She is now locked up in the prison of Zongren Mansion and cannot distinguish for herself. Naturally, people want to say whatever they want to her!"
"Besides, this servant is worried about the Queen Mother! If the Emperor decides for King Yi now and divorces Princess Yi first, then if Princess Yi proves her innocence the day after tomorrow, won't the Queen Mother lose a filial granddaughter-in-law? "
"Your Majesty, you have no joke, you can't give Princess Yi a hand in marriage to King Yi when the time comes!"
Queen Mother Liang's face darkened after hearing this. Bai Cui was right.
Empress Wei and Concubine Rong must have been worried that Ling Yu could prove her innocence, so they hurriedly cut off Ling Yu's escape route.
Even if Ling Yu is proven innocent by then, she will no longer be Princess Yi, and the queen will have no scruples to take revenge on Ling Yu!
Ling Yu, the granddaughter-in-law, must be so capable that they should be afraid of her!
After all, Empress Dowager Liang was a heroine who accompanied the Supreme Emperor to conquer the world. Although she didn't bother to do these little tricks in the palace, she still understood!
The king of Western Qin is named Xiao, and several princes are fighting each other. As long as it does not affect the country of Western Qin, the Empress Dowager Liang can turn a blind eye.
But if it hurt the foundation of Western Qin, how could Empress Dowager Liang endure it?
Ling Yu made a great contribution to the Western Qin Dynasty by extinguishing the plague this time, and the movable type printing she came up with was also praised by the Empress Dowager Liang.
The Empress Dowager Liang could clearly see the impact of this idea on the Western Qin Dynasty for hundreds or even thousands of years. It was the Western Qin Dynasty's luck that such a smart person could be born in the Western Qin Dynasty.
A short-sighted woman like Queen Wei only thinks about her own interests. Didn't she think that destroying Ling Yu would be a great loss to Western Qin?
As a princess, Ling Yu will naturally serve the royal family.
But if she found out that she was divorced after proving her innocence, then Ling Yu would definitely leave the Imperial Capital or even Western Qin!
In this way, if the royal family encounters a plague or something similar in the future, can they still count on Ling Yu for help?
The more Empress Dowager Liang thought about it, the more annoyed Emperor Wu An became. Didn't this prince care about his own country after being provoked by two women?
"Mother Wei, go and deliver the Ai family's oral instructions to the emperor, and ask him if he knows what it means to eat rice and smash pots?"
Empress Dowager Liang said angrily: "Ling Yu's pharmaceutical factory has saved the emperor so much money and contributed so much to the country of Western Qin!"
"If it is confirmed that she killed Chang Ning, she has no objection to beating or killing the Ai family. Then she deserves it!"
"But before I can figure out what's going on, I want to punish her, and the Ai family will never agree!"
