The Biography of Concubine Wen Xi in Qing Palace

Chapter 735 The Nightmare Prince ([-])

Folk rumors spread far and wide.

The words passed from Tong Guowei's mouth to the emperor's ears, and he added more fuel and vinegar to the emperor's words, which made the emperor suspicious of the eighth elder brother Yinsi's actions.

It is bluntly said that Yinsi is soft and treacherous by nature, and has high ambitions. The party members colluded with each other to murder Yinfeng, and wanted to lock him up and punish him.

After unannounced visits, he learned that Yin Si was a very noble face master, and the words of being the master of the world came from Zhang Mingde, so he ordered him to be arrested and brought into the palace for questioning in person.

Zhang Mingde was trembling with fright when he saw the emperor in front of the emperor, and he just kept talking flattering words.

The emperor couldn't hear him say a few words, so Long Yan yelled out angrily, Zhang Mingde was so frightened that he knelt down immediately and kowtowed repeatedly.

Yuan didn't use torture, but after a few words of scaring, Zhang Mingde told the truth: "The emperor forgives the crime! The grassroots just look at each other for food, and have no other intentions! This matter is not the grassroots' idea, the grassroots are actually people. If you don't say that, you will be murdered by others!"

The emperor was a little confused and asked: "You said that someone forced you to spread rumors among the people, but that person is the eighth elder brother?"

Zhang Mingde shook his head in embarrassment, and repeatedly denied: "It's not Ba Ye, it's not Ba Ye, it's Zhijun King!"

"Prince Zhijun?" Hearing Zhang Mingde mention elder brother Yinti, the emperor was silently thinking about it.

Yinti has always been on good terms with Yinsi, and he has no hope of seizing the heir. Could it be that he has a muddled mind to support the old man?
If so, it is unforgivable.

Just as he was thinking in this way, he heard Zhang Mingde say again: "Caomin dare not lie to the emperor! Caomin is a well-known Taoist priest in the capital, and everyone in the village knows it. The king of Zhijun just took a fancy to Caomin. This kind of skill is what forces the grassroots to be like this! Not only the eighth master, but even the prince and the second master are also in the scheme of the king of Zhijun. He wanted to spread the word that the second master was the one who conquered his father and defeated the country, but Such filthy words spread, and Caomin couldn't keep his head. So he tried hard to persuade Zhijun Wang to be merciful, and to give up the next best thing, and he had the face of the eighth master, "Wang Shangjiabai". "

The Emperor's eyes were clouded, and he looked at Zhang Mingde full of doubts: "You vomited completely." He snorted coldly, and suddenly slapped the table angrily, cursing: "Who taught you to say such stupid things in front of me!? "

Zhang Mingde was taken aback for a moment, and was immediately drenched in cold sweat.

These words were taught by Wan Lai to be true, and she herself followed the words exactly.But how did the emperor see the clue?
He stammered back and no one instructed him, the emperor said in a solemn voice: "As soon as he entered the gate of Qianqing Palace, he hadn't said a few words, and he was not in a hurry to argue for himself, but pointed directly at the wrong place of the king of Zhijun. Dare to say that no one ordered you? I am tired of watching you!" Then he called out to the outside of the hall: "Come on, send this troublesome man to the Criminal Justice Department immediately, and tell the truth from his mouth!"

After the words were finished, Liang Jiugong bowed and entered the room. After a careful look, he saw Wannao who came behind him with a food box.

"My concubine respectfully invites the emperor all blessings." After a brief blessing ceremony, the emperor raised his hand. Xu Ping put the food box aside, took out the blood swallow and white fungus soup, and placed it in front of the emperor, persuading in a low voice: "Why do you move?" Such anger? The imperial physician said that the emperor’s stagnant qi turns into fire and his liver yang is hyperactive, so he must refrain from anger and impetuosity.” As he spoke, he glanced at Zhang Mingde, who was kneeling in the hall, and asked, “What’s going on today? gone?"

Seeing Wanyu, the emperor's tone became a bit tender: "But I don't know that it was that rebellious son who caused this thing again, and I don't want my peace every day!"

Wan Lai and Yi Bi persuaded the emperor to take two mouthfuls of soup, and Yi Bi glanced sharply at Zhang Mingde: "What does the emperor ask you, you just answer truthfully. Why bother to tell the truth so as not to suffer a lot of flesh and blood? "

Zhang Mingde and Wanlao's cold eyes met, and suddenly his hairs stood on his head.

Thinking of the lives of his wife and children hanging by a thread in Wan Lai's hands, today's affairs may succeed but not fail.Even if I am greedy for life and afraid of death, I always hope to keep myself and my family safe.

So he gritted his teeth, and put on a look of resignation: "Your Majesty! I dare not hide it, the king of Zhijun has arranged his own manpower in the Shangsi courtyard, and he will take the second master's life when the guards are lax! If Fourth Master didn't take care of him wholeheartedly, I'm afraid Second Master would be dead right now!"

Angrily, the emperor took the bowl at hand and threw it at Zhang Mingde, and the hot soup splashed all over Zhang Mingde: "You are talking nonsense and saying that no one ordered you! The fact that the king of Zhijun and Sibeile are in charge of guarding the second elder brother is a matter of the court." , how can you, a folk god, know?"

Zhang Mingde didn't care about the burning pain on his body, kowtowed, took out a waist card from his sleeve, put it on the crown with both hands and presented it to the emperor.

Wan Yu only glanced at it, then exclaimed: "My lord, isn't that the badge of the elder brother? How could it be in the hands of this lunatic?"

The emperor's face was livid, and he ordered Liang Jiugong to present the waist card, held it in his hand and looked at it for a while, then slapped it on the table again, and asked, "Where did it come from?"

Zhang Mingde replied: "The king of Zhijun ordered Caomin to find for him the people with outstanding folk martial arts to arrange for him to enter the palace, and gave Caomin a badge to make Caomin act! Later, Zhijun king exposed his ambition in front of the emperor, and was eager to take back the badge. Cao Min was afraid that there would be no certificate left when the incident happened in the future, so he secretly made a counterfeit and returned it to King Zhijun, and kept the waist card privately!"

After hearing this, Wan Lai was suspicious and said: "You have done these things with King Zhijun, and many people have seen you going in and out of his mansion. I ask you, isn't he afraid of being known by others when he acts so blatantly?"

Zhang Mingde timidly said: "I don't know which lady it is."

"This palace is Defei."

Hearing the word 'De Concubine', Zhang Mingde pretended to be like a thorn on his back, trembling all over with fright: "Mrs. Ten Baylor went there because he met a literary friend. Ten Baylor had a pure heart and no doubts. Every time he entered the palace of the Prince of Zhijun, the grassroots would go with him."

Wanyu turned pale with shock, and said angrily to the emperor: "Your Majesty, Eldest brother is going to involve Yin in the disturbance? He."

The emperor frowned and sighed, and smiled angrily: "I really gave birth to a good son! Liang Jiugong, immediately go and invite the king of Zhijun to the palace! I want to ask him personally, what kind of heart is there!"

After he finished this sentence with trembling words, he laughed a few times, his eyes were red and there were tears in his eyes.

Wan Lai gently caressed his chest, shaking her head to comfort him: "The concubine understands that the emperor is sad, but after hearing this, how can the concubine feel better?"

She said, weeping: "In the past, the elder brother raised his concubines, and the concubines treated him as if they were their own, but now he is..."

The emperor held Wanyu's hand, and said softly: "Don't be sad. When you cry, my heart is in a mess."
