Emperor Mu laughed and walked to the throne and sat down: "Have all the maids in Zhaochen Palace been accommodated?"
"I asked Ah Cai to take them to the Huanyi Bureau." The queen sat down next to Emperor Mu, frowning slightly, "The incident happened suddenly. Before I could figure out how to arrange for them, I asked them to go to the Huanyi Bureau." The bureau will help for a few days. When the emperor's anger subsides, we will transfer them back."
When Emperor Mu heard this, his expression became a little gloomy: "There is no need to transfer them back. It's good to let them stay in the Huanyi Bureau."
Concubine Gu will never be able to stand up again in this life. The maids who have followed her will have to stay in the Clothing Bureau and do menial jobs for the rest of their lives.
"Why did the imperial concubine anger the emperor?" The queen looked at Emperor Mu puzzledly, "Hasn't she been staying in Zhaochen Palace without seeing anyone during this time?"
"The head of the Gu family is dead. He said he committed suicide out of fear of sin." Emperor Mu held the tea cup and said in an angry voice, "I originally wanted to comfort her, but I didn't expect that she questioned me."
The Queen frowned: "Question the Emperor?"
Emperor Mu nodded slowly, staring at the tea cup with cold and disgusting eyes, as if he had a deep hatred for it: "The imperial concubine's status cannot be reduced for the time being, but she should not imagine that she will be as beautiful as before. I have seen through her. .”
The queen was silent and did not answer.
Emperor Mu turned to look at the queen: "Originally I planned to let you adopt Rong Cang as his legitimate son at the Qianqiu Banquet this month, but Rong Cang is out on business and I'm afraid he won't be able to get back in time. This matter will have to wait a little longer."
The queen hummed: "It's important to run errands, everything else can wait, I'm not in a hurry."
"You are not in a hurry, I am." Emperor Mu seemed to be still angry, "I can't wait to adopt Rong Cang to your name now, and then send his inhumane biological mother to the cold palace to fend for herself. I never want to see her again in my life.”
The queen was shocked: "What happened to the noble concubine to make the emperor so angry? If it is just the goddaughter's incompetence, the emperor will just give her a little punishment and give her a good reminder. Don't get into a big fight. It's important to take care of the dragon body."
She didn't say it was okay to take care of the dragon body, but when she mentioned taking care of the dragon body, Emperor Mu became even more disgusted with Concubine Gu.
Thinking of the honor and favor he had shown to their mother and son, the imperial concubine had been in power for twenty years and had the power of the harem. King Chen was the most glorious of all the princes and married the prime minister's legitimate daughter.
And what do they give themselves in return?
It's the art of witchcraft.
It is a vicious intention to kill him at any time.
It was the eagerness and ambition to expect his early and sudden death.
Emperor Mu wished he could send them all to the frontier, pretending that he had never given birth to a son like King Chen.
But once the crime of witchcraft is convicted, it will be death, and it will be torture...
"I don't want to mention her anymore." Emperor Mu closed his eyes and took a sip of tea to calm down his mood. He turned his eyes slightly and found that Chu Yunfei was still standing. "Is Princess Zhan still used to living here these days?"
"Get used to it." Chu Yunfei bent her knees slightly, "My daughter-in-law is just afraid of disturbing her mother's peace."
"Sit down." Emperor Mu took out the letter from his sleeve and handed it to Chu Yunfei. "Someone from Prince Zhan's Mansion sent a letter. You can read it yourself. I didn't secretly read your message."
Chu Yunfei smiled and said: "Then please ask Father to take a look first."
"I'm not interested."
Chu Yunfei did not shy away from it and unfolded the letter in front of Emperor Mu.
There are not many words in the letter, only a few sentences. One is that my aunt has arrived in Langya City safely and is reunited with her grandparents. The other is that if King Zhan bullies her again in the future, he can write to Langya City and he will definitely give it to her. She backed up.
Chu Yunfei breathed a sigh of relief and took the initiative to speak: "My cousin wrote that he had brought my mother safely to Langya City. He also said that if Rong Cang bullies me again in the future, I can write a letter to complain and they will support me."
"Few women in Chu State have dared to propose reconciliation, but your mother broke the convention and allowed her to reconcile successfully." Emperor Mu refused to accept it. "Now that we have a strong grandmother's family to rely on, Rong Cang will be able to reconcile in the future." I probably don’t dare to bully you anymore.”
"Your Majesty, what you said is wrong." The Queen smiled, "Rong Cang was reluctant to bully her, and Mrs. Chu was able to successfully reconcile this time precisely because the King of War put pressure on her, otherwise it would not have been so easy."
After a pause, "As for Rong Cang and Yun Fei, even if there is a misunderstanding in the future, I will be the first to not spare him, but it will not be Langya City's turn to stand up for my daughter-in-law."
As expected of a queen.
These words are impeccable.
By shifting the main reason for Mrs. Chu's smooth reconciliation to Rong Cang, it would be just because Rong Cang had a noble status that he supported his mother-in-law's reconciliation, rather than a young master of Langya City putting pressure on the imperial officials in the capital to force him to reconcile. The prince's father-in-law and mother-in-law divorced.
The two properties are completely different and cannot be confused.
"The Queen is right, and I will support you." Emperor Mu waved his hand, obviously satisfied with the Queen's explanation, "If Rong Cang dares to be confused, I will definitely not spare him!"
"My daughter-in-law thanks my father and the queen," Chu Yunfei was moved. "It is my daughter-in-law's honor to be so protected by my father and the queen."
The queen thought that after Chu Yunfei married Rong Cang, all she brought was good news. The poison in Rong Cang's body was thanks to her. Now her son was lost and recovered, and it was also Chu Yunfei's credit.
She felt that Rong Cang was indeed lucky to marry Chu Yunfei.
"I have been in a bad mood these past few days." Emperor Mu put down the tea cup, "For three years, I don't know how many crazy things King Chen has secretly done. If he hadn't been under pressure all these years and failed to establish a reserve, sooner or later the country would be ruined. Destroyed in his hands!"
This sentence has revealed the key information.
If the crown prince is established early, there is no doubt that the chosen crown prince is King Chen.
Once they become the prince, Concubine Gu and King Chen will not only have these powers at the moment, but also a special prince and tutor to teach the emperor's ways, as well as various powers that the emperor personally arranged to support the prince in the future.
It is easy to establish a prince, but difficult to depose him.
Emperor Mu was grateful for his wisdom.
"Your Majesty, calm down, it's important to take care of the dragon body." The Queen lowered her head to persuade, "However, the sudden news of the death of the head of the Gu family is really shocking. Does Your Majesty know the cause of his death?"
cause of death?
Emperor Mu thought to himself, of course it was because the head of the Gu family deserved to die.
Not only is the leader of the Gu family dead, but when Rong Cang comes back after investigating the case, the officials arranged by the Gu family in various places will have to be eliminated one by one. The century-old family could have been noble and unparalleled, but once they have the idea of controlling the court and causing trouble in the world, then Certain death.
King Chen even dared to fake the disaster. Who would believe it if he said there was no cover-up from the Gu family?
The emperor had murderous intentions in his heart, and he would not let go whether it was King Chen or the Gu family.
But I still have some good intentions, so I don't want to implicate too many innocent people, so I can only temporarily suppress this major crime of witchcraft that can shock the world, boil the frogs in warm water, and eradicate them one by one.
