Chapter 376
Emperor Xiaoren looked up at her, "Oh?"

Concubine De smiled and said: "The concubine also heard about this incident by chance, and I don't know the truth, whether it is serious or not."

"Sultan, let's talk about it." Emperor Xiaoren seemed very interested.

The queen mother raised her eyebrows and did not speak, but her eyes were too deep for people to understand.

Concubine De said: "A few days ago, the young ladies of the Qiu family went to Baohua Temple to pray together. When they were going down the mountain, a little accident happened."

There was a smile on the Queen Mother's lips, "Concubine De stayed in the palace all day, I didn't expect to be very clear about this gossip from the outside world."

Concubine De continued to say as if she didn't hear the wit in the Empress Dowager's words: "Empress Dowager, please don't think that concubines gossip. I heard that many people saw this incident that day. It's just true and false, and it's not easy for concubines to comment. gone."

"What's the matter?" Emperor Xiaoren's interest was completely aroused, and he asked quickly.

Concubine De thought about it and said: "I heard that when they went down the mountain that day, there was a man named Pei Sizhao who held a painting in his hand, claimed to know Miss Qiu Wu, and said to repay the kindness of saving his life. It really seemed like that. But then I don’t know what happened, but the person on the portrait turned into the third lady of the Qiu family. Anyway, this matter is quite messy. If the queen mother wants to know, she might as well summon the town someday Concubine Nan went into the palace to ask carefully, and she was also there at the time."

Emperor Xiaoren frowned even deeper, "A daughter of a boudoir has an indistinct relationship with an outsider, it is simply immoral. Empress, how can such a girl enter my royal family?"

The queen mother didn't take it seriously, "The Ai family had heard about it, but it was finally found out. This is a complete misunderstanding, someone deliberately framed it. Your majesty, you are in vain as the emperor, and you can't even see such a simple slander." Is it? If Pei Sizhao really wanted to repay her kindness, why did she deliberately destroy her girl's reputation in front of so many people?"

Emperor Xiaoren choked, but was speechless.

The queen mother sighed, "You, that's how it is. Every time you don't investigate the matter clearly, you make judgments in vain. You have to remember that you are the king of a country, and you have to think twice before doing anything. Let's talk about Shen Congshan. You were willing to investigate carefully at that time, so you wouldn’t wrong a good person. At that time, hey, forget it, don’t mention it. In short, you have to remember that you are the emperor, and what you say is the imperial decree. Everyone in the court listens, and the whole world Everyone is watching. If you are not careful, you will easily make a big mistake. Don't blame my old woman for being talkative, emperor, you have to be careful."

She spoke earnestly, with a somewhat melancholy look on her face.

Concubine De's calm face changed slightly, while Emperor Xiaoren lowered his head sadly, with a trace of bitterness on his lips.

"Empress mother, son-in-law know."

The queen mother sighed and shook her head again, "I've seen that child before. He is respectful, filial, smart and well-behaved, and he speaks and behaves gracefully, and his talent is no less than that of everyone's first daughter. I think Li'er really cares about her. That child has lived a hard life since he was a child, and finally found someone he likes, so you just let him go."

Nanny Jin at the side couldn't help but find it strange that the queen mother didn't agree so quickly when the eldest son was around.Now why are you pleading for the crown prince before the emperor?She glanced at Concubine De De, as if she understood something.

Emperor Xiaoren lowered his head, seemingly in deep thought.

Concubine De said: "Queen Dowager, no matter how good the five girls of the Qiu family are, they are just concubines. The son of Prince Rong is a member of the royal family. If he marries a concubine, it will inevitably make the rich and powerful laugh at him. Prince Rong is not good either. Be human."

Emperor Xiaoren agreed with Concubine De's words, "My queen, Su Dan is right, you can't let Li'er marry a concubine."

The queen mother took a lukewarm glance at Concubine De, "Half a year ago, Ai's family wanted to propose marriage to him, but who would have known that the selected ladies from a famous family all looked panic-stricken and disgusted when they heard that they were marrying Li'er. Girl, that's all."

Emperor Xiaoren's face immediately changed, and the queen mother said again: "There are all kinds of things in the world, people are warm and cold, and I don't blame them. Even if you now order Li'er to give Li'er a daughter of a high-ranking family as the main wife, so what? If she doesn't care anymore On Li'er, even if she is married to Li'er, she is only superficially compatible. Is this what you want to see?"

Emperor Xiaoren's expression darkened again, and he said, "Li'er's legs..."

The queen mother turned her face and said: "It's been ten years, what famous doctor hasn't seen it? Even the owner of the Medicine King Valley said that there is no way, but can..." She was a little sentimental, and the circles of her eyes were also red.

Emperor Xiaoren lowered his head and did not speak, but shook hands again and again, with a desolate smile at the end.

Concubine De consolingly said: "There is no absolute in everything, there is always a chance."

The queen mother sighed, and said: "Things have passed for so many years, so don't worry about it anymore. Li'er is not young, and it is better to marry a wife and have children as soon as possible." She paused, and then said: "You It’s a matter of status to care and not care. It’s not easy? When her mother is mentioned as an ordinary wife, she is naturally a legitimate daughter. And his grandfather also had outstanding political achievements back then, but it was a pity that he was killed by an adulterer and he was imprisoned. Now the truth Dabai, not only is he innocent, but he has meritorious deeds. As a king, rewards and punishments should be clearly defined in order to convince the public."

Emperor Xiaoren nodded, "That's an idea." He raised his head and smiled gently at the Queen Mother, "Queen Mother, it's getting late, and I won't disturb your rest, I'll go back first."

The Queen Mother waved at him, "Go, go."

Concubine De also stood up and bid farewell to the Queen Mother.When she turned around, a slight smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

The last time Qiu Mingyue rode a horse in the street to the wilderness, everyone in Beijing probably knows it by now.It's just that it's hard to talk about it now.Zhuyin married the eldest prince, she need not be angry.On the contrary, you should be happy.The one who should be anxious now should be the one from Fengqi Palace.

Crash, the porcelain from the Shanghao official kiln was shattered all over the ground, scattered beside the golden phoenix group, and all the maids and servants in the room knelt on the ground.

"Madam, calm down."

Feng Qinghuan frowned, glanced at the queen who was still full of anger after venting, and said coldly: "Everyone get out."

"Yes." The maids hurriedly ran out with their heads down as if they were being pardoned.

Feng Qinghuan sat down and glanced at the queen.

"My queen, you are so angry that you are hurting yourself, why are you doing this?" He drank tea calmly, with no abnormal expression on his face at all.

The queen's beautiful face was full of gloomy anger, seeing his indifferent expression, she was even more angry.

"You still have the mind to drink tea here? That bitch Concubine De is probably still laughing somewhere, you..."

"Mother's queen." Feng Qinghuan put down the teacup, her eyes were silent.

"Just a little concubine, is it worth your anger? Since the emperor's grandmother has already spoken, this matter cannot be changed. When I just came, Concubine De and Father Emperor had already gone to the emperor's grandmother."
