Chapter 511 Some People Are Happy and some Are Sad
Luo Yunxuan's biological mother is Rou Concubine.
Rou Concubine fell ill when she gave birth in her early years, and her health has not been very good over the years. In addition, her background was low and she was not very favored, which led to her very low sense of presence in the harem.
Usually, she stays in her Yingfu Palace, she lives in a secluded place, and rarely sees people unless necessary.
Knowing that her son was canonized as King You, and she had to go to the remote and impoverished Youyun County, Rou Concubine was naturally very uncomfortable, but she knew that she was not favored and did not dare to ask the emperor for mercy, so she could only secretly let someone send some Something for Luo Yunxuan.
On the day Luo Yunxuan left, Rou Concubine hid in her room and cried secretly all night.
The next day, the palace maid was taken aback when she saw that Rou Concubine's eyes were red and swollen.
"Miss, you are..."
Rou Concubine said as if nothing had happened: "It's alright, wait for this palace to wash up."
Seeing that she didn't want to mention the matter, the palace maid did not dare to ask again, and respectfully waited on her to wash and change her clothes.
Then the emperor issued two imperial decrees one after another.
The first imperial decree was to dismiss Qin Lie from his official position, demote him and Qin Wen to commoners, and behead him three days later outside the Wumen Gate.
The second imperial decree is to reopen the examination, and to celebrate the Queen Mother's birthday, an additional enke will be opened next month.
These two imperial edicts, some people are happy and some are sad.
The entrance of Weiyang Palace.
Empress Qin looked coldly at the eunuch in front of her who was blocking her way, and said word by word while suppressing her anger.
"Didn't you hear what Ben Gong said? Ben Gong wants to see the emperor, please get out of this palace!"
Gan Fu bowed his knees and said: "Please forgive the empress, your majesty is resting at the moment, and no one is seen for the time being."
Empress Qin sneered, her eyes like knives: "Rest? He also summoned Wan Jieyu just now. Now you tell Ben Gong that he is resting?"
Gan Fu knelt down: "Please forgive me."
Empress Qin looked at the open door of Weiyang Palace in front of her. The door was silent and no one was seen.
She knew that the emperor was in the Weiyang Palace, and maybe while he was having fun with other women, he didn't care what happened.
In other words, he had been looking forward to this day for a long time.
He wished that the Qin family would fall soon.
He had already lost the slightest marital affection for her.
Empress Qin's eyes turned red a little bit.
She hated the emperor very much, but she couldn't leave him.
She really wanted to turn around and leave this disgusting place now and never see the emperor again, but when she thought of her brother and nephew still waiting for help, she could only take a deep breath to suppress the surging hatred in her heart. meaning.
Under the unbelievable gaze of everyone, the always arrogant Empress Qin knelt down.
She knelt on the cold, hard floor and shouted with a trembling voice.
"Your Majesty, please take your life back and spare the brother and nephew of the concubine's life!"
Pearl, who was following her, quickly knelt down.
Inside the palace, the emperor leaned on the soft couch and watched Wan Jieyu dance.
Hearing the shouting outside, Wan Jieyu's movements paused slightly.
The emperor said casually: "Don't pay attention to her, continue to dance yours."
Wan Jieyu didn't have a good impression of Empress Qin, and the two had some conflicts before, but at this time Wan Jieyu couldn't help feeling sympathy for Empress Qin.
As an empress, she was not liked by the emperor. In the past, she had her mother's family to support her, but now Qin Lie is convicted, and the entire Qin family has suffered heavy losses. Empress Qin has no support. Who will take her seriously in the future?
The most important thing is that the emperor personally ordered Qin Lie to be sentenced to death, which is tantamount to the emperor killing Qin Lie himself.
Her husband killed her brother, how should Empress Qin deal with herself in the future?
Wan Jieyu's thoughts went back and forth a thousand times, but she still had a smile on her face.
The dance moves, the skirt rotates, like a lotus petal blooming.
Outside the Weiyang Palace, the Empress Qin knelt down for a long time, but she still did not see the emperor appear.
Gan Fu reluctantly persuaded: "Empress Empress, why are you doing this? Even if Lord Qin is convicted, it has nothing to do with you. You are still a noble Empress. As long as you serve the emperor wholeheartedly, the emperor will definitely I won't treat you badly."
Empress Qin didn't seem to hear what he said.
She fixedly looked at the gate of Weiyang Palace, and it took a long time to come back to her senses.
She knew that the emperor was determined not to let her brother and nephew die.
Empress Qin raised her right hand.
Pearl quickly got up and helped Empress Qin to stand up.
There was a little dust on the hem of her skirt, which looked a little dazzling.
Pearl wanted to bend over to help her brush the dust off her skirt, but just as she stretched out her hand, she heard her say in a very indifferent voice.
"Place in the East Palace."
Pearl helped her to sit on the phoenix chariot.
Gan Fu bowed down to send the queen away, until Feng Ran was far away, he straightened up, turned around and entered the Weiyang Palace.
"Report to the emperor, the queen went to the East Palace."
The emperor was not surprised by this.
This time, the prince advocated investigating the case of cheating in the scientific examination, and it was also the crime that the prince personally convicted Qin Lie.
Qin Lie can be reduced to the point where he is today, and a lot of the credit must be attributed to the prince.
The persimmon picks up the soft pick, and the Queen of Qin has no way to do anything to him, the emperor, she can only go to the prince to vent her anger.
The emperor thought for a while before saying: "Send the decree to the prince, and he will continue to supervise this year's Spring Festival Examination. In addition, he will pass an oral order to the empress. Recently, the empress is unwell, and the empress will go to Shengguang Temple to pray for the empress dowager instead of me."
"Here."
Gan Fu silently exited the room.
He immediately took the oracle to the East Palace.
In the Qingge Hall, the Crown Prince was sleeping with Xiao Xixi in his arms.
In order to investigate the case of cheating in the scientific examination these days, Luo Qinghan went out early and returned late every day, and had a serious lack of sleep.
Now that the case has come to light, the burden on him has finally been lifted.
Once the spirit is relaxed, one cannot help but feel sleepy.
As soon as he arrived at the Qingge Hall, without saying a word, he hugged Xiao Xixi and fell onto the bed, then put the quilt over his body, and fell asleep like that.
Xiao Xixi was not very sleepy at first, but seeing that the prince was sleeping so soundly, she couldn't help yawning and fell asleep.
I don't know how long I slept, when there was a knock on the door.
Eunuch Chang's voice came in from the outside, speaking a little faster, and seemed rather anxious.
"His Royal Highness, the side concubine, the queen is here!"
Luo Qinghan, who was sleeping soundly, opened his eyes immediately.
Then Xiao Xixi also woke up.
She rubbed her eyes and asked inexplicably, "Why did the queen come suddenly?"
Luo Qinghan's expression was indifferent: "She suddenly came to the door at this time. Nine times out of ten, it was for the Qin family's business."
Inside the hall.
Baoqin served hot tea to Empress Qin, and then silently stepped aside.
Empress Qin is still wearing a black wide-sleeved long dress today, her expression is indifferent, and she seems to be no different from the past, except that her face is a little pale.
She picked up the tea cup and glanced at the tea leaves floating on the surface of the tea. She didn't know what she thought, and the action of drinking tea stopped like this.
Seeing this scene, Baoqin felt very strange, but did not dare to ask more.
