The past life is cold and the present life is warm

Shao Zhikan frowned and looked at where the emperor would rather gnash his teeth secretly than ask about Xiao Jingchang's crime. It was really incomprehensible. Finally, he couldn't help but ask: "Uncle, Wang Huaisi's rebellion is a capital crime. You trapped him without fines or expelling his servants. Just keep him in the palace like this. What does this have to do with not punishing him? The difference? The most important thing is that if King Huaisi is not captured and bled, your disease will not be cured."

The emperor glanced sideways at Shao Zhihan and then fell silent for a moment. Finally, he gritted his teeth and looked at Shao Zhikan and said, "I will think about this later. You may not have been out of the palace for a long time. Go back and rest for two or three days before entering the palace again."

When Shao Zhikan heard that the emperor drove him out of the palace. I swallowed back the words I originally wanted to persuade. Before retiring, he said: "I'm resigning. I want to see my aunt before I leave the palace."

The emperor looked thoughtful and waved his hand casually to indicate to Shao Zhikan. Shao Zhikan left the imperial study and went to Kunyi Hall in the harem without saying a word.

The queen in Kunyi Palace was still dressed in plain clothes, copying scriptures in front of the case. Shao Zhikan did not come forward to disturb. Just watching quietly from the sidelines. It wasn't until the queen finished copying this passage that she said, "Auntie, do you know why uncle didn't punish King Huaisi?"

The queen put down her brush, washed her hands in the basin brought by the maid, and after wiping them dry, she said, "It's not that your uncle doesn't want to punish King Huaisi, it's just that he doesn't dare to punish him."

Shao Zhikan looked at the queen with a puzzled expression. The queen sat on a chair nearby, took a sip of the tea served by the palace maid, and then continued with a smile: "Are you confused? But I know. Although there is no evidence, King Huaisi thought that his knife had done too many dirty things. The dirty things are indeed true. Otherwise, why do you think Jamel Xiao has acted so confident these years? Do you think no one really knows about the things he did? Because someone has taken care of it for him. "

The queen's remarks made Shao Zhikan's eyes tremble. The queen laughed at his surprised look, and said with a mocking expression: "Why do you think he always comes to my palace these years? Because he has a guilty conscience. He was the one who killed Yun'er, the one under Yun'er's hands He and that beast Xiao Jingchang killed all the capable ministers.

How much talent has this lost to Daji. But he still boasts about being a wise king all day long. In my eyes, he is no different from Hun Jun. So he felt guilty. He was afraid that sending Xiao Jingchang to the Ministry of Punishments would expose everything about him.

So there are some cases that I couldn’t figure out before. You'd better take action quickly and get it out of Jamel Xiao's mouth. Otherwise, I'm afraid he will be killed by your uncle. "

Shao Zhikan didn't say anything immediately but just looked at the queen silently. He understood that the queen wanted to use his own hands to uncover everything that happened back then. But he doesn't have that much time.

It's not a bad idea to just use this to stir up chaos in the court and reveal some clues.

After receiving the news that Shao Zhikan had left the palace, the emperor quietly took Eunuch Fu to the Sian Palace in the harem. Although the hall was a little deserted, it was not cold, and even a little hot. It means that there is a charcoal fire in this temple.

Sure enough, when I walked in, I looked into the east compartment. There was a burning charcoal basin placed in front of the couch under the window. No smoke at all. At first glance, it looks like fine silver charcoal.

The former Concubine He, and now He Changzai was eating fruit and teasing a little white cat that got into the palace at some point. There was no trace of being demoted and punished. On the contrary, he looked like he was enjoying his current life. The emperor calmly sat across from her, picked up the tea bowl on the table, and then poured himself a cup of tea with the teapot on the table.

Eunuch Fu glanced at Shi Lan who was waiting on the side. Shi Lan looked at He Changzai. He Changzai saw Shi Lan with his peripheral vision, raised his head to look at the emperor, and waved to Shi Lan. Shi Lan Fu Fu followed Eunuch Fu out of the palace gate.

Only then did He Chang open his mouth with a smile, but what he said was a bit strange: "Oh, what a rare visitor. Let me see who this is. Isn't this our emperor who is busy with government affairs? What kind of thing is your majesty doing today? It has blown into my concubine’s palace.”

The emperor finished the tea, then frowned and said to He Changzai: "What my concubine said really makes people feel uncomfortable. But does my concubine think that I owe you? But I asked myself, I feel that the punishment for you is He is already the most merciful person since ancient times, right? I wonder if my concubine still has any dissatisfaction? With what my concubine and Jing'er have done, I'm afraid even death ten or eight times is more than enough."

He Chang's heart was beating a little, but he still said with a smile: "I don't understand what your Majesty is talking about. I just think that your Majesty is trying to get rid of the trouble and kill the donkey. In order to achieve his own reputation for the rest of his life. Yes. I wonder if I am right."

The emperor was neither happy nor angry after hearing He Changzai's words. He just said lightly: "I know this is your dissatisfaction and resentment. I don't blame you, but you must also know that treason is a serious crime. If I want to kill you, You others can't find any reason at all.

But I didn't touch you. Even the food and clothing costs are not harsh, almost the same as before. Jing'er's people were just detained in prison. Do you still think I’m treating you badly? "

What the emperor said made He Chang speechless for a moment. But she felt angry inside. The most important thing is that she suspected that the emperor and the queen were involved in this incident to frame herself and Jing'er.

So he said sourly: "Over the years, Jing'er and I have done so many things for you overtly and secretly, don't you feel bad at all? Even a prince is unwilling to confer him a title. Those things that Jing'er and I have done for you, It’s not too much to be a prince.”

He Chang's words made the emperor's eyes flash with a dangerous light. But it was just a fleeting moment.

He Changzai didn't notice at all and continued to talk: "Think about that thing that is not fatal, that thing that will be infamy for forever if it is discovered. Jing'er and I have done it for you. If it is exposed We are not the ones who take the blame. We are the ones who are the stinkers. Your Majesty, you have left a good name."

The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly this time, but immediately said with a smile: "My beloved, what you said is wrong. What you did is not beneficial to you? Besides, I just promised you to pull the prince down. But you killed the prince directly. I was the one who wiped your butt for you. Since I wanted to abolish the prince in the first place, why would I want to create a prince again and make me worry? "

He Changzai choked again and said unconvinced: "Then... what about when Jing'er cooperated with you to clean up the princelings? What did you say?"
