At the same time, the palace was bustling with activity at the moment.
In the Weiyang Palace, the emperor was sitting on the imperial concubine's bed wearing a coat with a regretful expression on his face. He looked away and did not dare to look at the bed at this moment.
Empress De Fei and others arrived late. They turned around and saw Mrs. Shangshu sitting on the dragon bed with tears in her eyes and bruises all over her body. She was holding the brocade quilt and sitting on the bed with a scared look on her face.
A discerning person would know what was going on at a glance.
Concubine De and the Queen looked at each other and hurriedly summoned the maid.
"Come here, take Mrs. Shangshu down to clean her up." After giving the order, he winked at the palace maid.
The palace maid understood and hurriedly bowed and agreed.
"Yes, Queen."
Madam Shangshu had already been frightened out of her wits, so she naturally allowed herself to be manipulated by the palace maid. After a while, the Weiyang Palace was clean.
The concubine De and the empress looked at each other again, walked to both sides of the emperor and sat down.
"Your Majesty, what is going on? How could you be with her..."
"Yes, Your Majesty, have you ever been so unable to control yourself?"
As Mrs. Shangshu did, it was clear that she was used by the emperor to force her. However, although the emperor had three thousand beauties in the harem, he was never a person who liked to force himself. When things go wrong, there must be monsters. Someone must have deliberately framed her to cause the current situation.
And the most important thing right now is to find a suitable reason for the emperor to get rid of this infamy. Therefore, the queen and the concubine must take the royal family's face into consideration first.
"I don't know what happened. After reviewing the memorial, I suddenly felt dizzy and my blood was surging. Then I happened to see her. I couldn't control it for a moment. When I realized it, it was irreversible."
"It sounds like someone has drugged you. Come here and have the imperial physician conduct a thorough investigation on everything the emperor touched today!"
"yes!"
However, one wave came after another, and the problem at this end was not solved yet. The eunuch who was waiting on him broke in and delivered an urgent report.
"Reporting to your Majesty, the head of the Xue family would like to see you."
"Master Xue? Why are you here at this hour, but something happened?"
The emperor was puzzled. Xue Yan would never enter the palace in the middle of the night. This time something really happened. Thinking that the Xue family was the second largest family after the Lu family, the emperor did not dare to neglect the busy people to change his clothes.
"Welcome Xue Yan to the study room. I will go over after getting dressed."
"yes!"
After half a stick of incense, the emperor entered the minister's study room. As soon as he entered, he saw Xue Yan with a mournful face, as if someone owed him eight hundred taels of silver, not to mention how resentful he was.
"Wei Chen has met the emperor."
"I love you so much."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
The emperor walked around Xue Yan and sat on the dragon chair. He straightened his body and looked calm, as if nothing happened just now.
"I wonder why Aiqing came to the palace late at night?"
"Your Majesty, I am here to seek an explanation for my son."
"Excuse me? Are you here for Xue Chen? What happened to Xue Chen?"
The emperor's brows suddenly frowned. He vaguely felt that Xue Yan's purpose at this time was not simple, especially because it involved Xue Chen.
"Your Majesty, Wei Chen really couldn't sleep all night because of this incident. It's already hard enough for Wei Chen's child to be born blind and unable to see. Why did the sixth princess have to give Chen'er a ban on him and make Chen'er obey her? !”
"Wei Chen asks himself that he has a clear conscience towards Dongling. Chen'er made Dongling famous all over the world. Why does the royal family still treat us, father and son, like this? I hope the emperor can give Wei Chen an explanation."
