Family Has a Concubine

Unexpectedly, the princess left the palace in the end, and ended up in a tragic death.

He didn't want to believe it, he lost his light again, and finally he managed to feign death and escape from the palace, but he couldn't find her. And form a refugee force. It had been going well at first, but he didn't want to but killed Zhen Xihou and destroyed everything about him.

But now, he saw the true face of Zhen Xihou...

The Forbidden Army has already stepped forward and dragged all the people down one by one.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!" Emperor Zhengxuan passed out after sending out the bandits and Yao Yangcheng.

The prince and the others were so frightened that they hurried forward, and finally Cai Jie and others carried Emperor Zhengxuan out, and the courtiers wanted to chase after him, but the prince put on a serious face and said coldly: "Everyone, do what you have to do."

The courtiers were all stunned. Emperor Zhengxuan's posture that he was about to die at any time made them respect the prince even more.

The prince glanced at Zhang Zan and Fan Zhiming: "Dali Siqing, Fan Yushi, you go and verify the remaining evidence and details."

"Yes." Zhang Zan and Fan Zhiming stepped forward and walked away.

The crown prince looked at Shangguan Xiu again: "Commander Shangguan, you lead people to surround Yao's mansion, and drive the Yao family members who are outside back to Yao's mansion, waiting for the imperial edict to come out."

"Yes." Shangguan Xiu cupped his hands, turned and left.

After Shangguanxiu left the main hall, he led the imperial guards out of the palace aggressively.

The common people knew that Xihou was the town of Dianju today, so they all gathered outside the palace to wait for the result of the trial. Not far from the emperor, the restaurant is full of people who are concerned about this matter.

Zhang Boyuan was sitting in a restaurant with the best view, leaning against the window, pouring tea for himself leisurely, the table was full of good wine and food, and now he was waiting for the good news from the palace.

Maybe the emperor, under his wrath, would ask the imperial army to drag Chu Yunpan out and behead him on the spot.

The more Zhang Boyuan thought about it, the more excited he became.

"Ah, come out! Come out!" Suddenly someone exclaimed.

Zhang Boyuan hurriedly looked out the window, and saw Shangguan Xiu leading two rows of imperial guards, coming out of the palace majesticly. All of them were dressed in black velvet outfits of the imperial guards, with an imposing manner.

Zhang Boyuan watched from a distance, but he was secretly disappointed that he didn't see Chu Yunpan pulled out to show the public beheading.

But this imperial guard must have gone to the Zhenxihou Mansion to ransack the house. Thinking of this, his spirits lifted.

Zhang Boyuan stood up and was about to go to the Zhenxihou Mansion to watch the excitement, when there were screams downstairs.

More than a dozen imperial guards rushed in, and finally ran up to the second floor. Xiao Er was walking in front of them with a bow: "Gentlemen, the person you are looking for is in the plum blossom box over there." , led the guards through the lobby on the second floor.

"What's going on?" The people around were shocked and excited. They all stood up and squeezed forward, but when they saw the imperial guards approaching, they quickly made way for them.

"Let's go! Let's go!" One of the guards shouted coldly, "The prisoner's family is here, and we are ordered to arrest him."

Then he rushed out.

"Oh, could it be... Zhen Xihou was sentenced, and his family members are here?" an old man asked.

"How could this be?" An old woman looked sad.

Zhang Boyuan squeezed into the crowd, very excited.

I thought that I would get the Zhenxihou Mansion to watch the excitement, but I didn't expect to save even the road.

Who will be arrested now? By the way, it must be Ye Tangcai. The more Zhang Boyuan thought about it, the more excited he became.

Even he will come here to wait for the news of the palace trial today, so naturally Ye Tangcai, as a daughter-in-law, will not be left behind and will come here too.

"Ah, it's coming out! Hey, how could it be..." The people in front exclaimed in disbelief.

Zhang Boyuan stretched out his head to look over, and his whole body froze. He saw that it was an old woman in her sixties who was dressed in a yellow trousers and dressed in wealth.

But...it's not Ye Tangcai?

Zhang Boyuan saw the old woman approached by the imperial guards, and asked anxiously, "Brothers, who is this old woman? Could it be Zhenxihou's grandmother?"

One of the imperial guards gave him a slap in the face: "What are you talking about! How could this woman be Zhenxihou's grandmother. Even if she is really Zhenxihou's grandmother, we can't arrest her."

"Then why are you arresting her...she is..." Zhang Boyuan's face became more and more grim.

"This is Yao Chen, the old wife of Yao Shangshu and the biological mother of the crown princess." The imperial army said, "The court trial just now has confirmed that Zhenxihou was wronged. It is actually Yao Shangshu... Bah, what Shangshu! Yao Yangcheng colluded The exile bandits first harmed the Marquis of Zhenxi in Dongniu Mountain, and after their failure, they returned to Beijing to conspire with the exiles. Now, with the evidence and witnesses from various sources, they finally found out the ins and outs. Sentence the entire Yao family to be beheaded! No one can be kept."

The common people cheered, clapped their hands and laughed loudly: "Okay! We knew that Marquis Zhenxi must have been wronged. All treacherous ministers who framed Zhongliang deserved to die!"

Zhang Boyuan's mind went blank for a moment, and then his face darkened. Unable to see the people cheering and discussing here, he jumped out of the crowd and rushed to his home.

After the forbidden army captured Mrs. Yao, they finally locked up Yao's house and surrounded the whole Yao's house tightly.

After Shangguan Xiu confirmed that there were not many people in the Yao family, he went back to the palace to report.

In the palace—

Emperor Zhengxuan had already been placed on the bed, and the prince, queen, King Lu and others surrounded the bed, all of them with red circles under their eyes.

Doctor Luo shook his head just as he was withdrawing the needles on Emperor Zhengxuan's body one by one.

"Yizheng, how is the father?" The prince asked anxiously.

"Oh." Doctor Luo just shook his head.

The faces of the prince and others changed, and then they rushed to the bedside: "Father! Father!"

Empress Zheng said: "These days are obviously in good condition, what's going on now..."

Doctor Luo bowed and said, "A person reaches his limit...There are always a few days when he is particularly energetic..."

"You quack doctor." Empress Zheng shouted angrily.

Luo Yizheng fell to his knees with a plop, and King Lu said: "Queen Mother... people will age, and Yizheng has done his best."

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..." Empress Zheng cried and lay on Emperor Zhengxuan's body.

At this moment, Li Gui walked in: "Your Highness, the commander-in-chief Shangguan has returned."

The prince wiped away his tears and followed Li Gui outside.

Shangguan Xiu clasped his hands and said: "The ministers have surrounded the Yao family, counted the masters among them, there are quite a few of them."

"Okay." The prince nodded, with a ruthless look in his eyes. Turning back to Li Gui, he said, "Where is the Marquis of Zhenxi?"

"Outside the hall." Li Gui said, "The servant will invite you immediately."

Li Gui ran out, and led Chu Yunpan in after a while.

"See Your Highness." Chu Yunpan saluted.

"Ai Qing doesn't need to be polite." The prince stepped forward and patted Chu Yunpan's shoulder: "I have always believed that you are innocent."

Chu Yunpan nodded: "Weichen knows. No matter how wronged outsiders are, no matter how the so-called evidence is sufficient, His Highness has always believed in Weichen...Weichen..."

Seeing his expression of gratitude beyond words, the crown prince felt agitated, and patted him on the shoulder involuntarily: "I understand you! Marquis of Zhenxi, don't need to say too much."

Chu Yunpan and the crown prince looked at each other, and the crown prince then burst out laughing: "The forbidden army has surrounded the Yao family, Marquis of Zhenxi, I order you to bring the imperial decree and confiscate the Yao family yourself!"

"Yes." Chu Yunpan immediately accepted the order.

Shangguan Xiu on the side gasped.

Home raiding is a rare thing. After all, no one knows how much a family has and how many things it has hidden. Therefore, as long as the bills on the surface are handed over, the Yao family's private things will usually be taken away by the officials who ransacked the house.

Of course the emperor and the crown prince knew about this kind of thing, so sending someone to raid the house was a tacit reward.

"Your Highness." At this moment, Cai Jie bowed forward.

"Why isn't Eunuch Cai serving in the bedroom? Could it be that father..." The prince's expression changed as he spoke. "Father, he..."

"Cough, no..." Cai Jie coughed dryly, "The emperor is awake, although he is very weak, but he is still awake. He wants to see Marquis Zhenxi."

The prince was startled, then nodded: "Okay, Zhenxihou, go quickly."

"Yes." Chu Yunpan agreed, and followed Cai Jie's footsteps to leave.

Shangguan Xiu also bowed his hands and retreated to do other things.

Only the crown prince and Li Gui were left in the garden, and Li Gui stepped forward and said with a smile: "Looking at the expression of Marquis Zhenxi just now, I almost couldn't say the words 'swear allegiance to His Highness'."

The prince chuckled, his eyes flashed proudly, at least he can't say such words now!

That is a general of a country, but the current emperor is still Emperor Zhengxuan, not him.

This kind of words can be tacit.

"Your Highness is still wise. At that time, all the evidence pointed to him, even we... believed it. But although His Highness doubted it, he still comforted him." Li Gui said.

The prince's elegant face was full of color, "Your Majesty, this is what you said."

The prince also breathed a sigh of relief. Chu Yunpan is a talented person, and if he married Chu Miaoshu, he would have been dragged out by himself long ago. He also didn't want to see the people he had worked so hard to win end up being useless.

Now after this incident, not only has this person been won over, but he has also completely recovered him. There is no rest to worry about.

Emperor Zhengxuan didn't have much tomorrow, and it looked like it was only a few days. Now that Yao Yangcheng has committed this crime, when he ascends the throne, he will directly abolish the Crown Princess and make Chu Miaoshu, plus Chu Yunpan's talent for establishing the country, it will be truly splendid!

...

But it was said that Chu Yun climbed into Emperor Zhengxuan's bedroom, and after asking for peace, he said: "Your Majesty, the Shi family took one thousand taels from Yao Yangcheng in order to confuse Yao Yangcheng. This is dirty money."

Emperor Zhengxuan waved his hand: "I see, this thousand taels should be rewarded for their honesty and loyalty."

Chu Yunpan said, "It's not easy for me to see their family, young and old, and I want to give them another thousand taels of pension in private."

"You can figure it out yourself!" Emperor Zhengxuan nodded.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Chu Yunpan cupped his hands. The money promised to the Shi family at that time has all been cleared now.

Chu Yunpan said some more words before leaving.

The emperor's bedroom suddenly returned to calm.

Cai Jie had to wait in front of him: "By the way, the previous one sent Long Xiao out of Beijing, do you want to call him back?"

"Long Xiao...cough, what are you doing out of Beijing?" Emperor Zhengxuan was so ill that his mind was a little blurred.

"Your majesty forgot, all the evidence was complete at that time, and the emperor wanted to...cough, so he sent Long Xiao out of Beijing to investigate the matter of Aunt Zhenxihou." Cai Jie said. "Now that the truth has come to light, it's time to call back."

Emperor Zhengxuan nodded: "You are right..."

"Ah!" At this moment, an exclamation sounded.

Cai Jie was shocked and turned around suddenly: "Who?"

I saw that it was a woman. In his early twenties, he wore an amber-colored brocade short jacket with floral makeup, and a lake-colored three-panel gold horse-faced skirt. Thick black hair, tied in a romantic and unique bun, looks gentle.

"Princess Gelen?" Cai Jie asked in surprise.

This person is the unlucky second son of Emperor Zhengxuan who died prematurely - King Ping's only bloodline, Princess Glenn.

Prince Ping's fourteen-year-old child with a court lady was the first grandchild of Emperor Zhengxuan because of his early birth. It is also the only bloodline left by King Ping in the world, and Emperor Zhengxuan dotes on her very much.

Princess Ge Lan walked in and blessed Emperor Zhengxuan: "See the emperor's grandfather."

"Ahem...you're here. I want to rest..." Emperor Zhengxuan really wanted to rest, because he was suffering from illness and really didn't want to chat with anyone.

"I just want to see the emperor's grandfather." Princess Ge Lan's face turned pale, "Just now when I came to the door, I heard the emperor's grandfather talking to Eunuch Cai...I listened."

Emperor Zhengxuan coughed and waved his hands.

Cai Jie said: "It's not a secret, the Princess don't be afraid."

At that time, Chu Yunpan was suspected, so he had to send someone to investigate the cause. This should have been done by the third division, and it was something that was put on the surface. Emperor Zhengxuan was worried, he just sent someone himself, it was nothing.

"No, Grandfather." Not only did Princess Glenn not leave, but she sat down on the embroidered pier at the head of the bed, "Lan'er is talkative...but Lan'er still wants to express her own opinion. Since everyone has been sent out, then Just keep checking. After all, Marquis Zhenxi is going to provoke us Daqi Liang. Now that someone has seized this opportunity to frame him, there is no guarantee that there will be a second time. It is better to check clearly in advance, and if someone If you continue to make trouble with this, you can fight back immediately."

Emperor Zhengxuan and Cai Jie were taken aback, and Emperor Zhengxuan felt that it was reasonable, so he nodded: "Lan'er is smart... cough cough..."

Cai Jie said with a smile: "The Princess is right."

"Cough, reward." Emperor Zhengxuan said.

Cai Jie promised, walked into the house, and came out with a tray after a while.

There was a jade ruyi and two jasper inkstones on the tray. Princess Ge Lan took it with a smile: "Thank you, grandpa, for the reward."

Cai Jie said: "The princess is dedicated to the emperor, but it is not appropriate to say this matter outside, please keep your mouth shut."

"Yes." Princess Glenn nodded with a smile.

Cai Jie chatted with her a few more times, and then sent her away.

After this incident, the dark clouds that had been suppressing the entire Daqi finally dissipated, and it was clear.

In the blue sky and white clouds, a black falcon flew across the sky, and I saw a group of more than ten people riding horses, walking slowly on the thick snow among the vast snow-capped mountains.

The black falcon let out a cry, and the man at the head raised his head from the fur collar, revealing a charming face. He stretched out his hand, and the black falcon landed on his arm.

He untied the small letter box under Mo Falcon's feet, and with a wave of his hand, Mo Falcon flew away.

At this time, under the cover of the big black cloak in front of him, a small head stuck out, but when there was nothing, it shrank back listlessly.
