Li Jiarong came out at the third pole of the next day, and Xiao Qinzi kept watch at the gate all night, when he saw Li Jiarong coming out, he rushed up to greet him, "Your Majesty, are you alright?"

Li Jiarong said to the worried Hualien, "Don't let Pei Ling brothers disturb the imperial concubine today, let her have a good rest, you are always waiting for you."

"Where are people?" Li Jiarong asked Xiao Qinzi coldly.

Looking at Li Jiarong's gloomy face, Xiao Qinzi couldn't help but feel chills in his back, "Everything is under Xiao Fangzi's control, that old slave is very cunning, she just said that she can't understand the noble concubine empress dominating the emperor, so she asked that The girl intends to seduce the emperor, but the girl doesn't know how to deal with it..."

"She confessed all the crimes by herself." Xiao Qinzi watched Li Jiarong's expression carefully.

Li Jiarong sneered, "What a tough guy! Where are the people from the Su family?"

"The Marquis of Lin'an has been called into the palace, and the empress... is in my palace."

"Take them all to the empress's palace, I really want to hear how the empress will explain it to me!" Li Jiarong got on the sedan chair and started, clenching his hands into fists.

At the gate of Fengyi Palace, Mrs. Su came to pick him up early, and Su Er also stood behind Mrs. Su, "The concubine has seen the emperor..."

Li Jiarong didn't even look at it, she stepped in directly, Su Shi and Su Er looked at each other, Su Shi gave Su Er a hard look, Su Er gave her a reassuring look.

"The empress must have known about what happened last night. Is there anything the empress wants to tell me?" Li Jiarong sat at the head and asked with a cold face.

Su Shi asked anxiously, "I don't know what the emperor said...?"

Li Jiarong squinted at Su Shi, and Su Shi shuddered.

"Bring me up!" Li Jiarong waved his hand, and Xiao Fangzi immediately escorted two people up, one was Madam Su who was tied up by five flowers, and the other was Zhang Zhaodi.

"Dare to plot against me, you are really brave!" Li Jiarong slammed the table, although he said to the two kneeling people, but his sharp eyes kept staring at Su Shi.

Madam Su trembled all over and began to cry, "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! This old servant is wrong. Everything is the old servant's fault. It has nothing to do with anyone else, and it has nothing to do with the empress! It is the old servant who hates the imperial concubine and empress, so he instigated Let Zhang Zhaodi seduce the emperor, the emperor! Everything is the fault of this old servant, the emperor should not blame the empress!"

Li Jiarong looked at Xiao Fangzi, and Xiao Fangzi immediately took out a piece of cloth and crumpled it into a ball to cover Madam Su's mouth.

"Queen, she is your slave, what do you say, how should I deal with it?" Li Jiarong looked at Su Shi.

Su Shi couldn't bear to look at Su Momo, then turned her head away, "Although the concubine doesn't know what happened, but since she has confessed all the crimes, let her... be executed with a stick."

Su hesitated for a moment, then said softly.

"Stick death? Heh, isn't it too cheap for her! Zhang Zhaodi, you have given me ten tricks, if you tell half a lie, I will definitely kill you all!" Li Jiarong sternly said.

Zhang Zhaodi shuddered and kowtowed in a hurry, "Your Majesty! I'm recruiting a girl! I'm recruiting anything! The girl is from Dingji Village, Wanjiang County. She is 17 years old. Her parents are honest farmers. There is also an older brother, A younger brother and two younger sisters. At the end of last year, someone suddenly took a paper and said that Minnv's father owed others 1000 taels of silver, which was signed by Minnv's father to sell the heirloom emerald jade pendant when he was drunk. , but Minnv’s family has never received 1000 taels of silver from anyone, and the family is very poor, and I have never heard of any family heirlooms.”

"The man forced Minnv's father to either hand over the baby or pay back the money. Minnv's elder brother asked others to write a certificate, but the literate people in the town said that the certificate could not be written after reading it. The contract was clearly written in black and white. , and the handprint of Minnv's father, it is absolutely undeniable."

"When Minnv's family was at a loss, a nobleman came to the house. The nobleman promised to help us with this matter, but asked Minnv to go to Beijing with him. Minnv had no choice but to follow the nobleman into the capital. After the capital city, Minnv was arranged to live in a big house. Later, a nanny came to teach Minnv how to behave and how to play the piano. Minnv did not know that Minnv had been selected as a show girl until she participated in the palace selection. "

"Yesterday, in the palace election, the Minnv was the last one. Before she could perform, the nun took the Minnv to the emperor's room, saying that the Emperor wants the Minnv to serve her. As long as the service is successful, the Minnv can become a concubine. The girl's family members don't have to suffer any more. Your Majesty! What the girl said is the truth, I beg the emperor to spare the girl."

"Look up and see, is there anyone you know here?" Li Jiarong said.

Zhang Zhaodi slowly raised her head to look at Su Shi and Su Er who were on the side, Li Jiarong stared closely at her very familiar face, and the fire in her heart became more and more intense.

"I don't know." Zhang Zhaodi quickly lowered her head, and after a while, she seemed to think of something, "But this man, Minnv has seen him talking to this nanny, um...before the palace selection."

Zhang Zhaodi pointed at Su Er timidly, and Li Jiarong looked at Su Er coldly.

Su Er's complexion changed drastically, and he knelt down and said, "Your Majesty! Weichen and Madam Su are just chatting, asking about the recent situation of the empress and the eldest prince, and have no other intentions."

"Small chat? Nothing else?" Li Jiarong sneered.

Su Er nodded again and again, "Going back to the emperor, there is absolutely no other intention!"

"Come on, drag this slut down and cut him apart! Take Zhang Zhaodi down too!" Li Jiarong waved his hand, and Xiao Fangzi called someone to pull the two of them away.

The palace was very quiet, Li Jiarong looked at Su Shi and Su Er, Su Er knelt on the ground, cold sweat fell one by one.

"What happened to the wine at the banquet yesterday and the clothes on Zhang Zhaodi?" After a long time, Li Jiarong asked.

Su Er shook his body and shook his head again and again, "Your Majesty, I don't know, I don't know anything."

"It's a good one who doesn't know! Come on, drag him out and beat him!" Li Jiarong shouted loudly, and Xiao Qinzi immediately stepped forward and called two guards to drag him out.

Su Er's usual ruthlessness was gone, and he was trembling with fright, "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! I really don't know anything! I really don't know anything..."

"Your Majesty!" Su Shi turned her head to look at Su Er, and hurriedly knelt down in front of Li Jiarong to beg for mercy. "Your majesty, my concubine and Su Er really don't know anything, my majesty, please be kind..."

Snapped!
Li Jiarong slapped her, and Su Clan fell on the carpet with an ah.

"People often say that the heart of a woman is the most poisonous! What are you thinking? Do you want to kill me? Su Yi, I have been married to you for many years and have been tolerant to you. Is this how you repay me?" Li Jia Rong grabbed her clothes and pulled her in front of him.

"Don't think I don't know if you don't tell me, the fragrance powder on Zhang Zhaodi's clothes will be catalyzed by wine, and it will form a strong aphrodisiac! You poisonous woman! What are you worrying about!"

Su stroked her face, and looked at Li Jiarong with teary eyes, "Your Majesty, my concubine really doesn't know anything, and the concubine did not prepare the wine at yesterday's banquet. The wine was specially brought by Xiao Qinzi." Come on, how could the concubine harm the emperor! Your majesty, you have to trust the concubine!"

"Believe you? Then you have to make me credible too! You sisters and brothers are really good at tricking me. They gave me medicine and found Zhang Zhaodi who looks very similar to Concubine Rong. It's really hard for you to frame the Zhang family painstakingly for nothing. I lost a girl! Empress, I warned you not to challenge my endurance again and again! I tell you, I will definitely take care of your Su family today!" Li Jiarong pointed at the Su family and said word by word .

Dare to plot against him!This is the end!

Li Jiarong got up and walked outside, Su Shi jumped up and hugged Li Jiarong's thigh, "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Please, this matter has nothing to do with the concubine's family! What the concubine did, really has nothing to do with the concubine's family! Your Majesty! Please!"

"Go away! If I don't deal with you, it will be hard to get rid of the hatred in my heart!" Li Jiarong kicked Su Clan away, and said fiercely.

Su was stunned for a while, as if suddenly remembering something, turned around and ran back to his bed, opened the quilt, and took out a roll wrapped in delicate silk from the hidden compartment under the bed. thing.

Do you have to use this?
This is the last straw for the Su family!
Su's heart was cruel, she reached out to wipe away her tears, turned around and ran outside.

"Where's the emperor?" Mrs. Su went out of the house, but she couldn't see Li Jiarong, and hurriedly grabbed a maid beside her and asked.

The maid was taken aback, and pointed in the direction of Xuanming Palace, "The emperor has returned to the palace."

"What about Lord Hou?"

The palace maid said tremblingly, "Master Hou was beaten fifty times, his flesh and blood were bloody, and he was carried out."

Su couldn't care about anything else, "Go! Order someone to prepare the sedan chair! I want to see the emperor!"

Hastily arrived at the Xuanming Palace, but the Su family was stopped by Xiao Qinzi, "Empress, the emperor said that no one is allowed to disturb you, why are you bothering..."

"Go away! How dare you stop me!" Su Shi was in a hurry, and wanted to go in but couldn't resist Xiao Qinzi.

Su raised his hand, "This is the last emperor's decree, how dare you stop it?"

Xiao Qinzi's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly rolled off, "I dare not!"

Su Clan kicked it up, "Get out of here, Ben Gong!"

Xiao Qinzi hurriedly stepped aside, Su Shi pushed open the door of the palace, saw Xiao Fangzi grinding ink and waiting for Li Jiarong to write, Su hurriedly knelt in front of Li Jiarong, "Your Majesty!"

"Get out, I don't want to see you!" Li Jiarong didn't lift his head, "Send the queen back to the palace!"

Xiao Fangzi responded, and stepped forward to pull Su Shi, but Su pushed him away, holding his hands high, "Your Majesty! This is the imperial decree given to my Su family by the late emperor, can you protect my Su family?"

Li Jiarong raised his head and stared at her inscrutablely.

The Su family collapsed to the ground, "Your Majesty, this is the imperial decree bestowed on my father by the late Emperor, and my concubines use this. Can you ask the Emperor to spare my Su family?"

Li Jiarong looked at Xiao Fangzi, and Xiao Fangzi held the imperial decree in both hands and handed it to Li Jiarong. Li Jiarong opened it up and felt relieved.

This is it!

His father was assassinated by an assassin when he went to the palace in the early years. The old Hou Ye of Lin'an saved him and almost died. It was a reward for Lin'an Hou's loyalty and bravery, but Lin'an Hou was so bold that he secretly left his father's emperor's seal, but the original content was removed, and this imperial decree was forcibly made into a blank will.

When he married the Su family as his main wife and was about to compete for the reserve, the old Marquis of Lin'an revealed this intentionally or unintentionally, and he was shocked. From that time on, he regarded the Su family as his worst enemy.

After he ascended the throne, he asked the Marquis of Lin'an to give this edict to the Su family on the condition that he would never abolish it. But until the death of the old Marquis of Lin'an, he refused to tell where the edict was. The Su family, but they have not been found.

Now that Mrs. Su took it out, Li Jiarong simply didn't know whether to lament Mrs. Su's stupidity or praise Mrs. Su for his knowledge of current affairs.

The next day, Li Jiarong made a decree that the Marquis of Lin'an should be punished for half a year for the crime of disrespecting the sage.The empress is unwell and needs to rest in the palace. All affairs in the harem are handed over to the noble concubine, and the eldest prince Li Peixiang is temporarily raised by the noble concubine.
