This scream instantly broke through the noise in the palace, and everyone looked in the direction of Princess Shu.
Princess Shu had fallen off her chair and was sitting on the ground, with tears of fright in her eyes.
And the hand that patted her shoulder belonged to the King of Shu.
He had just arrived for the banquet and was about to say something to his wife, but he saw her sitting alone in a daze.
Unexpectedly, Princess Shu was so frightened that she fell to the ground when he touched her.
The first time she saw King Shu, she also showed a look of horror.
The King of Shu frowned secretly and found that everyone was looking over. He hurriedly pulled his wife up in panic.
"Yuehe, what's wrong with you? What's wrong with you?"
Princess Shu calmed down a bit, but she still couldn't help but tremble slightly. She felt a little nauseous when she was held in King Shu's arms.
"I'm fine," she pressed her eyebrows: "I'm probably a little uncomfortable."
The emperor had already walked over: "Is Mrs. Wang okay? The miracle doctor and the ghost doctor are both here, let them take a look."
He said, over there Sima Han and Xiang You both came out to check the situation.
As soon as the King of Shu saw Xiangyou, his expression changed.
He thought of something, looked down at Princess Shu, and a gloom suddenly flashed in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid Yue He isn't feeling well, so I'll take her back first." After saying this, the King of Shu picked up the Princess of Shu.
Princess Shu was so frightened that she forgot to struggle.
However, at this moment, she seemed to smell the faint fragrance of powder coming from King Shu's body. It was a peculiar aroma of grass and trees. She had never used such powder.
Thinking of this, Princess Shu raised her head and saw the caring face of King Shu.
Did he go to see someone else before coming?
The emperor didn't notice anything was wrong between the two of them, and just nodded lightly: "Okay, then you go back first, and if anything happens, send someone to tell me."
At this moment, Shen Ningning's voice came from outside the door: "Uncle Emperor! Call me! We found the person who broke the Glazed Buddha, the young eunuch beside the Ninth Prince!"
The King of Shu suddenly stopped as he was about to leave.
Everyone saw Shen Ningning and Mo Lingwei walking together at the entrance of the main hall. Pei Yin followed behind them, carrying the little eunuch who was tied up.
The emperor was shocked: "How could it be him?"
Pei Yin threw the person directly to the ground, and the little eunuch screamed in pain.
"Explain everything to the emperor yourself!" Pei Yin scolded coldly.
The palace was full of dignitaries and concubines. Under such dark gazes, the young eunuch trembled with fear.
He raised his head: "It's... it was the slave who broke the Glazed Buddha."
The emperor looked at him angrily: "Who in the hell ordered you!"
The little eunuch didn't dare to say.
Concubine Qi and the Ninth Prince heard the news and rushed over.
"Father, I have just learned that this daring eunuch dared to break the glass Buddha and blame it on his cousin. It is an unforgivable crime. Please order his death immediately!" As soon as the Ninth Prince came, he was angry. He pointed at the little eunuch.
Concubine Qi left in a hurry, and when she passed King Shu, she glanced at him calmly.
The emperor obviously didn't believe the Ninth Prince's words and stared at him with gloomy eyes.
"How dare he, a little eunuch, risk his own life to destroy the Glazed Buddha? There really was no one behind it?"
Concubine Qi was afraid that the emperor would suspect the Ninth Prince.
She quickly stood up to help explain: "Your Majesty, I forgive you. It's all because of my negligence in discipline. When Wei'er came to the palace to visit me a few days ago, I privately complained that the Qi family was cruel to me. At that time, the emperor and this concubine The little eunuch was also present, so he was eager to make a contribution, so he thought of giving Weier a lesson and asking for credit from my concubine. " The little eunuch raised his face as pale as paper.
Before he could speak, the Ninth Prince had already said angrily: "My mother-in-law and I treated you so well. Before, your mother was ill and gave you money to find the best doctor for her, but you attacked my cousin. That's my cousin!"
When the little eunuch heard the word mother, he couldn't help but lower his head, tears streaming down his face, trembling with tears, and he confessed all his crimes.
"It's my fault. I shouldn't have thought that I could vent my anger on Concubine Qi by bullying Miss Qi. Your Majesty, please spare my life. I will never dare to do it again!"
The emperor's face turned livid and he waved his hand: "Drag him out and kill him with a stick!
" The eunuch screamed and shouted: "Concubine Qi, His Highness the Ninth Prince! His Highness the Ninth Prince!"
Shen Ningning and Mo Lingwei frowned in tacit understanding.
What the little eunuch didn't finish was probably asking them to treat his mother favorably on his behalf.
But for a person as cruel as Concubine Qi, I am afraid that this little eunuch will die in vain.
The emperor's eyes were gloomy and he looked at the Ninth Prince: "The people below have done such a thing, and it has nothing to do with your connivance. Recently, the government affairs I have entrusted to you have frequently made mistakes. I think you are not only unable to manage your servants, but also My own abilities are not very good!"
"How can I safely hand over the Ministry of War to you? Prince, you will be in charge of the Ministry of War from now on."
Mo Lingwei raised his eyebrows, if he takes over the Ministry of War. , all six departments were under his control.
The old man would really find something for him to do.
However, over there, Concubine Qi and the Ninth Prince had both changed their expressions.
"Your Majesty, Li'er is still young. He just can't discipline the palace people well. As for government affairs, I will definitely urge him to consult several veterans for advice. I also ask the Emperor not to let him lose the opportunity to gain experience."
The King of Shu stood aside . He didn't leave, and he looked anxious just now, as if he was thinking about Princess Shu's health, but now he stood not far away, looking at the situation with a hint of worry.
Princess Shu in his arms felt cold in her heart.
So far, what else doesn't she understand?
What the husband is looking at is Concubine Qi, but his concern for her has always been deliberately pretended!
Princess Shu struggled to get down from King Shu's arms.
"Your Majesty, please go and persuade me." Her voice was calm, and her mood had gradually stabilized.
This sentence was exactly what the King of Shu wanted. He nodded quickly and said perfunctorily to the Princess of Shu: "Although it is a family matter of the Emperor, but with so many ministers here, if the Ninth Prince really insults the Ninth Prince, it will cause an unpleasant mess. I will go and persuade him." , Madam, rest here for a while."
Seeing his reaction, Princess Shu confirmed her suspicion.
There was a coldness in her eyes, and hatred surged into the sky.
As soon as the King of Shu walked over, the Princess of Shu spoke before him: "Your Majesty, please forgive me for speaking frankly. The reason why the Ninth Prince made you angry is actually because of his lack of experience."
As she spoke, she walked towards the crowd, her face had returned to calm, and the King of Shu was shocked. He looked at her and immediately grabbed Princess Shu's hand.
However, Princess Shu avoided it lightly until she walked in front of everyone and looked into Concubine Qi's cold eyes.
Concubine Qi: "Sister-in-law, the emperor just taught Li'er a few words. As his aunt, how could you say such chilling words."
Princess Shu smiled slightly and said calmly: "As his aunt, I should give you some advice."
Shen Ningning muttered at this time: "The princess's aunt was right, she said that the eunuch wanted to harm Xiao Wei before taking action, but how could it be such a coincidence? We are not fools."
Her voice was not loud. Small, but just enough for everyone around to hear.
The emperor's eyes darkened.
He looked at the Ninth Prince: "Since your mother and concubine just said that you need some experience, it just so happens that I have already planned to send you to Youzhou, so you can stay there for a few years."
Concubine Qi's face suddenly turned pale.
Youzhou!
It was an extremely cold and bitter place. If the convicted ministers were exiled, they would be sent to that place.
She had known that the emperor only cared about the prince, but she didn't expect that he could be so cruel to her son! (End of chapter)
