Quick travel: I rely on the childbirth system to pamper my harem

Chapter 441: The Imperial Concubine and the Evil Uncle 9 55

Sheng Qingning's face was calm and unchanged.

She just glanced at Lin Meiren and then looked at Xu Wanyi.

"The queen has done such a treacherous thing, and the emperor actually wants to spare her life. This shows that the emperor is not without affection for the queen. The affection may even be deeper than we imagined."

As if receiving some kind of hint, Beauty Lin also glanced at Xu Wanyi: "I really envy you. With this kind of affection, the queen can do whatever she wants. Xu Baolin, don't you think so?"

"My concubine's status is low, and the mystery cannot be revealed." Xu Wanyi did not leave, nor did she join in the discussion. She only glanced at Sheng Qingning from time to time, as if to be wary of her reaction.

Lin Meiren said with a sneer: "Sister, you really keep your peace of mind. I just don't know where this kind of peace of mind will allow you to climb in the palace. Don't even know how to die by then."

Xu Wanyi's face turned pale and she said with a smile: "Thank you, Miss Lin, for your concern. I know it well."

"Ah."

Count? It's rare to see someone who was poisoned by Queen Yang even though she didn't dare to expose her. Beauty Lin despised such a woman the most, so what's the point of just being submissive?

But it’s not her fault, because she didn’t have a good family background.

"It's all over. It's better to keep your mouth shut and don't cause trouble. I can't help you either." Sheng Qingning got on the sedan chair and glanced at the two of them calmly.

"Farewell to the noble concubine."

Lin Meiren saluted, and after the others left, she glared at Xu Wanyi: "The emperor does love his sister. If it were Baolin next to him, the emperor would not come to Xingqing Palace in such a hurry."

After saying this, she was about to leave, but Xu Wanyi suddenly spoke.

"Why did the emperor come? Wasn't it planned by the beauty and the noble concubine?"

Lin Meiren turned her head suddenly, feeling frightened.

Previously, Xu Wanyi had a soft and weak temperament and never spoke much, let alone such meaningful words.

Thinking of this, Lin Meiren glanced at Xu Wanyi coldly, and saw a lot of provocative emotions in Xu Wanyi's eyes, which was annoying.

"Sister Xu is really scheming. She just pretended to be innocent and useless, but her face changed as soon as the imperial concubine left. This really surprised me."

Xu Wanyi said: "I learned from each other, as well as from you."

Lin Meiren raised her eyebrows: "Why don't you go and say this in front of the noble concubine?"

"No need, I'm tired, I'll go ahead."

Staring at her retreating back, Lin Meiren scolded: "The people in this harem should not be underestimated. How can someone be a clean slate without being stained by the dust?"

"The beauty is absolutely right. It's getting late. Why don't you go back?"

Lin Meiren said lightly "Yeah".

Early the next morning, the rumor that Queen Yang Hongxing was having an affair spread throughout the harem. No one knew how it spread. All they knew was that Chu Molongyan was furious and killed many palace maids and eunuchs with a stick.

In particular, most of the people serving in Xingqing Palace were basically killed.

The previous dynasty was turbulent, and they even started to openly take sides. Empress Yang's accident meant that the Yang family would be left alone. Naturally, the Sheng family would be prosperous. Chu Mo didn't want to see the Sheng family dominate.

He was not too cruel when dealing with the Yang family, and instead allowed Prime Minister Yang to return to the court.

"Your Majesty, this must be a frame-up. The Queen has always been respectful and modest since she became the queen, and she has never made any mistakes. This happened last night, and it happened to be seen by you with your own eyes. Don't you think it's suspicious?"

Prime Minister Yang said loudly: "I thought that if we want to investigate this matter thoroughly, we cannot hastily close the case and slander the Queen!"

Sheng Chang'an said: "Prime Minister Yang, the Queen is your daughter, so you naturally have to speak for her. Can the Emperor's own testimony be false? Are you saying that the Emperor is too dim to judge right from wrong or that the Emperor is blind and cannot see the truth?"

Chu Mo, who was sitting on the dragon throne, had a gloomy expression on his face, obviously hearing Sheng Changan's slightly sarcastic words.

Prime Minister Yang hesitated, not knowing how to refute Sheng Changan's words.

After all, what Sheng Changan said was not false. He found a way to send Qi Shi in. If Chu Mo discovered it, not only Queen Yang, but also the Yang family would no longer have to live in this world!

"Sheng Chang'an, don't just hear this!"

Sheng Chang'an said disdainfully: "Prime Minister, is this a guilty conscience? How could it be that I just heard it from hearsay? Everyone knows this!"

His eyes glanced at Prime Minister Yang's ugly face as if he had eaten a fly, and he said meaningfully: "I respectfully request the emperor to clear out the six courtyards of the harem to avoid different opinions!"

"General Sheng Er is right. I respectfully request the emperor to purge the harem, otherwise the rumors will continue to spread and even the people will talk about it!"

Now only the civil and military officials and the harem know about this, but it won't be certain after a while.

Chu Mo's eyes darkened, and he scanned all the officials, and finally settled on Sheng Chang'an: "Sheng Aiqing, you really think about me, but she is the queen after all, I can't be cruel."

The Queen's betrayal was told and talked about in front of so many people.

Chu Mo's heart was bleeding with anger. If it weren't for maintaining face, he wouldn't even want to say anything.

"Your Majesty, some things cannot be dealt with based on emotion. Otherwise, if everyone follows suit, wouldn't the world be in chaos?"

"Sheng Chang'an, don't be too alarmist!"

Prime Minister Yang was still struggling to his death, and he reprimanded sternly: "The emperor is a wise king in the prosperous times, how could he bring chaos to the world! But you, you wish that the world was in chaos, and you have made great contributions, right?"

Sheng Changan pulled his lips sarcastically.

The former Prime Minister Yang would definitely not say such a thing in front of the courtiers. After all, it was the military generals who relied on the chaos in the world to achieve military success. Prime Minister Yang said this because he looked down on military generals.

Now that he said it regardless of the consequences, it was nothing more than confusing his mind.

It seems that Queen Yang's affair has dealt a serious blow to him.

"Prime Minister Yang, what do you mean, you look down on our generals? Our generals exist to protect the world, but a civil servant like you can only talk and be useless!"

The person who spoke was another general, and there was no need for Sheng Changan to instigate him, as someone took the lead.

"What's wrong with civil servants? How could civil servants be as vulgar as you? We thought about it..."

"enough!"

Seeing that the civil and military parties were about to quarrel, Chu Mo shouted sternly: "Do you think it's not chaotic enough? Okay, if you don't have anything to do, retreat from the court!"

"Your Majesty, what should I do with the Queen?"

"Deposed Queen! Imprisoned in Xingqing Palace, no one is allowed to come out without my instructions!" Chu Mo stood up and rolled his sleeves, "No one is allowed to visit in any name, including you, Prime Minister Yang!"

Prime Minister Yang was shocked and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, think twice, Queen..."

"Think twice? If I hadn't thought twice, she would have become a corpse by now. If she dares to plead for mercy, I will punish her with consecutive crimes!"

After Chu Mo finished speaking, he didn't stop anymore and left the hall directly.

All civil and military officials also silently withdrew.

The three brothers Sheng Chang'an walked up to the lost Prime Minister Yang and sneered: "Want to go astray and assassinate Chen Cang secretly? Prime Minister, you really made a mistake. Congratulations, Prime Minister!"
