Chapter 679 The Queen's Road (15)
"I will send someone to investigate and deal with this matter later, Jubilee, you don't have to complain now, save your saliva. Bai He, you have violated the law of the country by harboring Liu Xinmei, a criminal who should be in the prison. The crime is not light, and I will not spare you lightly, come and take her down to execute the death penalty." Xun Zhen said, although Bai He did not commit a heinous crime, but in order to warn the harem that Liu Xinmei cannot be harbored, Bai He must die.

When Bai He heard that, her face was ashamed. When she first met Xun Zhen, she still looked down on her as a court lady. Today, the power of life and death is in her hands, and her heart is full of bitterness. It is blank.

The concubine sat down on the ground, watching Xun Zhen's ostentatious purple dress gradually disappearing before her eyes. She said that she would investigate thoroughly, wouldn't her unruly behavior be exposed?

With Yanyu's support, Xun Zhen rushed to the moat outside Yanxi Palace. Because of the salvage, it was very lively here. A group of court ladies and eunuchs were watching from the bank, pointing and talking in a low voice. Open a passage, and stand with hands down, not daring to talk nonsense.

Xun Zhen stood on the bank and looked at the distance. The embankment was about ten feet high from the moat. It was reasonable for Liu Xinmei to fall and break the thin ice. In the cold lake water, it might not be easy for Liu Xinmei to survive, but she should not take it lightly.

The salvage lasted for three full days but there was no result, Xun Zhen inevitably paced around the room a little irritably, Yu Wenhong looked up at her from the memorial, and said: "Zhener, is it worth it for a Liu Xinmei? "

Xun Zhen looked back and saw his calm and relaxed look, feeling a little dissatisfied in his heart. His son was yelling "Yi Ya" in the cradle, his eyebrows immediately smiled, and he stepped forward to hug his son. This boy is only two months old. But it became more and more sinking. When she saw her, she screamed "Yi Ya" even more joyfully, and walked close to Yu Wenhong with her son in her arms. Seeing that his face was still slightly pale, "Your injury is not fully healed. If you don't Go back to bed and lie down when you feel comfortable, don’t get tired.”

"I'm going to get moldy after lying down for so long, and in a few days it will be New Year's Eve, and there will be a lot of ceremonies, so it's better to get out of bed earlier to do some activities." Yu Wenhong stretched out his hand to tease his son's chubby face With a small face, she smiled when she saw her eyebrows and eyes, "Zhener, don't worry too much, as long as you send someone to guard properly, she can't hurt our son, and maybe she has sunk at the bottom of the lake?" Of course, this idea is more optimism.

Xun Zhen lowered his head and pecked him on the lips, "It's just that I can't feel at ease if I don't see her dead body. The weather outside has cleared up, so let's go for a walk."

Yu Wenhong got up with a smile and put on the cloak, then walked out of Hualong Palace with her who was holding the child, and walked in the ice and snow. The red walls and yellow tiles in the palace were shining in the white snow. Following in the distance, the colorful cloaks shine like a painting in the winter snow.

"By the way, how to deal with the matter of the concubine?" Xun Zhen turned to look at him and asked.

"No matter, it's a fact that she violated the ban in the palace, so let's put her in the cold palace. With this incident, next year's draft can be suspended." If it wasn't because of his ancestor's family law, he didn't want to draft another woman into the palace. He could only drink a scoop of weak water for three thousand, so he took advantage of this incident to refute a few memorials for the draft.

"Actually, she did this kind of thing because she was lonely in the palace. In the final analysis, it was us who harmed her. It's good if I choose fewer bitter wives to enter the palace, and I will feel less resentment." Xun Zhen sighed. In fact, Gu Qingman is right in saying that her happiness is indeed based on the misfortune of those women in the harem.

Yu Wenhong embraced her lightly, watching her and her son staring at him with open eyes, "Zhen'er, I don't want you to feel guilty for this, if they want to complain, they can blame me. In fact, if they can enter the palace, they They all came in with the hope of being favored, I am only one person, but they are a group of people, even if you pamper them every day, these dirty things will still happen, so this is not your fault."

Xun Zhenwo sat in his arms admiring the snowy scenery in the palace, "You can speak eloquently, that's all, if you want me to watch you pamper them, then I'll let you look up to Eunuch Sun first." Wow, she will not let her lover go to another woman's bed just because of the slightest bit of guilt, and she will not want the so-called virtuous name, she will not do such stupid things that want face but not face.

Yu Wenhong pinched the bridge of her pretty nose in a good mood, and Xun Zhen shook his head dissatisfied, as if I was not a child.

As the end of the year draws near, Yu Wenhong has done a few major things since he first ascended the throne, so everyone is having a good time this year, and the prospect of the empire is as hopeful as the rising sun.

Princess An Xing paid homage secretly to the Liu family who were put to death in the mansion, threw a string of paper threads into the fire, and murmured: "Grandpa, uncle...don't blame An Xing for your spirits in heaven, An Xing can't do anything about it, I am left alone now, if there is no more consort, how will you let me live? Fifth cousin, An Xing, I am sorry, our relationship is over now, An Xing this is the last time to burn paper thread for you, in the future I will never pay homage to you again, don't hate An Xing, your spirit in heaven..."

She burned paper money while crying, and just wiped her tears with a handkerchief, when she heard the maid who was letting the wind whisper, "Princess, the son-in-law is here..."

Then she hurriedly got up, extinguished the fire in the copper plate with water, then got up and quickly adjusted her makeup, went to the outer hall, saw Gao Wenxuan walking in, and hurriedly said: "Why is the son-in-law here at this hour?"

Gao Wenxuan saw her face was bright red, but smelled the smell of burnt paper on her body, frowned and said: "You have done a great job in arresting the Liu family, and the Chinese New Year is almost here. The Emperor specially asked you to attend the New Year's banquet. I am here to Tell you to get ready. What does it smell like on you? Why do I smell like burning paper?"

Princess An Xing was startled, she hurriedly raised her sleeves and smelled it, and it really smelled like burning paper money just now, in order not to arouse Gao Wenxuan's suspicion, she hurriedly said: "Because of the Chinese New Year, I just ordered someone to tidy up the mansion, some manuscripts are useless Then someone burned it, that's why it got this smell, the son-in-law has a really good nose." After speaking, he covered his lips and smiled to cover it up.
