    As early as when Emperor Jiahe suddenly broke in, the three of her most trusted people in Concubine Duan's house all knelt down, their heads low and silent. But when Emperor Jiahe so clearly hinted that some of them were related to the murder of Concubine Su, the three of them raised their heads in terror.

    Seeing that Emperor Jiahe was only staring at Qingling alone, Mother Deng could not help but breathe a sigh of relief. After all, being suspected by Emperor Jiahe was not a good thing, but the next moment the two raised their hearts again, because they knew that if Qingling’s charges were committed Now, the entire Yongshou Palace will not get better, the empress will fall, and these palace people will also have to be implicated.

    Concubine Duan naturally understood this, staring at Qing Ling in shock, even if she knew she hadn't done it.

    Qing Ling's face was pale, his eyes met Emperor Jiahe, shocked and scared, and he repeatedly kowtows to defend: "The emperor is forgiven! The slave and maidservant have been waiting by the empress for these two months, and have not left the eternal life palace for half a step, and there has never been any murder. Concubine Su's heart, please be aware of it!"

    Concubine Duan didn't tell Qingling to do anything. After the initial panic, he immediately recovered his usual sense of courage. He raised his head and said to Emperor Jiahe: "You have heard the emperor. I have never calculated Concubine Su..."

    Emperor Jiahe looked at her mockingly.

    Concubine Duan bit her lip, knowing that her words had been heard by Emperor Jiahe. She simply broke the jar and fell into a ban for two months for no reason. She was also angry. After hesitating for a while, she stood up and talked to Jiahe angrily and wronged. The emperor defended: "Yes, I just said I was going to kill her. I really wanted to hurt her, but she deserved it! She caused my mother to be demoted as a common man, caused my father and brother to exile, and caused Hua Rong (Beautiful Face) to die prematurely. My cousin, you said, shouldn't I hate her!"

    Feeling wronged, it seems to be angry with relatives.

    Mother Deng, who was kneeling behind, closed her eyes in despair. She, mother, when has she treated Emperor Jiahe as a cousin? Also, it is said that who should find her guilty, really...

    "The imperial decree is from me. Why are you angry with the fourth daughter-in-law?" Emperor Jiahe didn't treat Concubine Duan as a cousin. He stared at the selfish woman in front of him, almost bursting into flames, "In fact, you also gave birth to me. Are you so angry? You just don’t have the ability to murder me? If I’m not the emperor, but just an ordinary husband and father, someday you think I’m not doing justice, do you just murder me directly?"

    Concubine Duan was anxious and retorted in a shrill voice: "Cousin, you spit, you..."

    "Shut up!" Emperor Jiahe screamed when she heard her call to his cousin.

    Concubine Duan's legs weakened in fright, she knelt down uncontrollably, and cried tremblingly: "Cousin, it doesn't matter how you scold me, the emperor, but the person was really not instructed by me last night, I... "

    Emperor Jiahe raised his hand and motioned to her to shut up.

    The man's aura is too vigorous, Concubine Duan dare not disobey him again, only bowed his head and wiped tears.

    Emperor Jiahe took two steps to the side and stared at the woman who was sitting there.

    He has a queen and three concubines, and the one he dislikes the most is this cousin.

    Because she is like her mother, Princess Yongning, arrogant and narrow-minded.

    Princess Yongning was his own aunt, and he wanted to give him his cousin, but he had no reason to refuse. After all, the cousin at the time was outstanding in appearance and never made any mistakes in front of him. Sometimes acting like a coquett made a petty temper, but for him Fresh and exciting.

    After the cousin entered the palace, he did spoil her for a while.

    Then the cousin became pampered. He spends half of the time with Concubine Shu every month, and his cousin is dissatisfied, so she will get angry with him for a while to find trouble with Concubine Shu. At that time, he was still willing to indulge her. Since Concubine Shu did not want to care about her cousin, he did not go to Zhaoning Palace a few times. So the cousin got an inch and suppressed a few newly recruited nobles, and even started to target the queen everywhere, repeatedly provoking the queen’s prestige in public.

    The queen had her own temper and punished her according to the palace rules.

    The cousin complained to him again that Emperor Jiahe didn't indulge her anymore, confined her for a full month, and ordered her to think behind closed doors.

    Instead of thinking about it, the woman invited Princess Yongning in as soon as the ban was resolved. That was his real aunt, and Princess Yongning also knew her identity well. Although she didn't scold him, but her tone of voice was to persuade him to take care of his cousin. Until now, Emperor Jiahe wanted to raise the table when she thought of it.

    Do they think he is really afraid of them?

    He respected Princess Yongning as a polite and respectful royal, but he did not give this respect, and no one dared to say anything.

    Since then, no matter how Concubine Duan cried and begged, he stopped eating her. He continued to spoil Concubine Shu and respect the queen. When Concubine Duan caused trouble, he handed her to the queen for punishment. Concubine Duan obeyed, he If you are in a good mood, go to her side, and not go if you are not in the mood. Concubine Duan has finally learned to temper his temper.

    Emperor Jiahe always knew that Concubine Duan was only forced by the situation to pretend to be obedient, and he was still jealous of the queen. Concubine Shu was jealous of Concubine Rou. Concubine Rou was favored by him. Only for him, the husband who could control her future, still liked him, the emperor, but just Just now, he was standing outside the door, listening to her accusing him of being old and confused.

    "Wanquan, come over and tell her the good things Qingling has done."

    Emperor Jiahe walked to the side, turned his back and didn't want to look at the woman again.

    "The emperor..." Seeing the disgust in the man's eyes before turning around, Concubine Duan sank completely and cried.

    Emperor Jiahe winked at the two little eunuchs behind Wanquan.

    The two immediately stepped forward, one of them pressed tightly to the concubine Duan who was so arrogant as to quarrel with the emperor before, and the other expertly blocked Concubine Duan's mouth with a cloth tape.

    Concubine Duan struggled.

    Wanquan started talking about himself.

    Phoenix Rite Palace.

    The queen leaned languidly on the couch, and her right hand, which was far less than her actual age, protruded from the edge of the couch, and asked her confidante Kong to apply kodan.

    "You said, have you pleaded guilty now?"

    Granny Kong smiled lightly, and while busy working intently, she whispered in a low voice: "Qingling is a smart girl. She can successfully gain the trust of that person and become one of the best ladies in the Yongshou Palace. She naturally knows how to behave to convince the emperor of her It's also the master's instigation to harm people."

    The queen sighed: "It's a pity. We have carefully planned for so long. Two rare talents, Liu Xia Qingling, died. Only one small fish was caught and the big one ran away in vain. It was a waste. Concubine Shu was the fourth I love the three girls of Fu Family, if they have one dead body and two lives, they will feel better."

    What is Concubine Duan? Since the fall of the Qing Kingdom government, she hasn't put Concubine Duan in her eyes. Last night it was just because of so many years of friendship, she gave her the last big gift. Her eyes are always Concubine Shu. It is Concubine Shu who gradually lost the favor of Emperor Jiahe. It is Concubine Shu's son who compares her prince...

    It's a pity that missed this golden opportunity, and would have to be extremely cautious if want to deal with King Su in the future.

    Fortunately, she has patience.

    ~

    On the second day, Emperor Jiahe issued a decree.

    Concubine Duan was resentful for his handling of Princess Yongning’s murder of Concubine Su. He first instructed the palace to harm Concubine Su and his royal heirs at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, and then despised Tianwei to speak disrespectfully. The sin was unforgivable, he was given death and deprived after death. Concubine Duan is titled and will not enter the imperial tomb.

    Manchuria was shocked.

    Fu Rong was also taken aback.

    "Father, did you really give Concubine Duan to death?" Fu Rong asked in disbelief after Xu Jin returned from the palace. That was one of the three concubines in the harem, the cousin of Emperor Jiahe. The two slept in the same bed for so many years. Concubine Duan also gave birth to the prince King Cheng, but Emperor Jiahe directly gave him to death?

    Xu Jin was very calm, afraid that she would stand up and be frightened, so she held someone on the bed before holding her hand and said: "I was dead last night. Don't think too much about it. She dared to harm you to our son, such a vicious woman, How could the father keep her life?"

    Fu Rong didn’t know what to say. He leaned close to the man’s arms, and was silent for a while and worried: "Master, because of me, in just half a year, the father first punished a princess and then gave a concubine to death. Father, father. Will the emperor dislike me?"

    Even if Emperor Jiahe knew that the fault was not with her, he would definitely think she caused too much trouble, right?

    It was she who caused the imperial family's restlessness. Without her, there would not be so many things, at least in Emperor Jiahe's mind.

    Fu Rong was upset and wronged. She didn't expect that in this life she finally got the love of her mother-in-law, but left a bad impression on her father-in-law. The ordinary father-in-law is nothing more than the emperor, the emperor father-in-law spoke, and the mother-in-law and husband together can't protect her.

    Xu Jin wanted to deny her guess, but he knew that it was a lie. Father did not like Fu Rong before, now...

    If there was only the Mid-Autumn Night, the father would not anger Fu Rong, but his layout in May...

    It's all because he didn't think well.

    I can’t say anything against my heart to coax her, and I’m afraid she doesn’t believe it at all. Xu Jin can only hold Fu Rong in his hands and make a solemn promise: “Don’t worry, no matter what your father thinks, you have me. I will definitely protect you. There is a mother, she is very much favored by the father, and if she blows the air in the ears of the father, when the matter of Concubine Duan is completely calmed down, the father will not take it seriously. After all, there is no mistake Isn't it?"

    Fu Rong curled his lips and rubbed his stomach, and said: "Now I can only hope that this place will win. If I can give birth to a big fat boy for the prince, how much will my father please me?"

    Xu Jin laughed and touched her face and said: "You are my princess, I just look pleasing to the eye. What does the emperor do?"

    He could speak sweet words more and more, and Fu Rong gave him a look, but his mood relaxed a lot.

    She and Emperor Jiahe couldn't easily run into each other, as long as she no longer caused any trouble and people were busy with affairs, they probably wouldn't always remember her.

    After a few days, heard that Emperor Jiahe had rested in Zhaoning Palace for two consecutive nights before Fu Rong's heart really returned.
