On the early morning of the second day of the Lunar New Year, Concubine Rong met Taiping in the imperial temple a hundred miles outside Beijing.

It's just that the person in front of me is no longer what he used to be.

Her beautiful face was now covered with pustules, and there was no good spot on her face, and blood would bleed from time to time.

Concubine Rong was so frightened by this scene that she screamed and almost fainted. After calming down, Concubine Rong remembered the contents of the letter and immediately interrogated Qi Chengping.

Taiping was tortured all night, and was sent back without stopping. At this moment, he was not only physically uncomfortable, but also mentally painful.

A woman's appearance is so important. She has not dared to look in the mirror since she had her hair. She is afraid that she will not be able to accept her current appearance.

"If you don't tell me who caused you to behave like this, I will kill all the servants around you today and rush back to the palace to ask your father to investigate thoroughly."

After Concubine Rong saw that she could not pry her mouth open after talking for a long time, she finally got angry and stood up to kill her.

But even if Chengping heard that she wanted to kill the palace maid who was close to her, she still remained indifferent. Even if she died, she would never betray Hao Yan.

"Okay, just don't say anything. Come here, tie up the person who is serving the princess for me, and I will interrogate him personally!"

Buddhism was supposed to be a pure place, but within a few moments there were shouts and screams. Sheng Ping huddled on the couch, crying. The matter between her and Gu Honghao was not tolerated by the world. Hao Yan said that as long as he ascended the throne and became the emperor, he would allow her to do so. Since she was in the back position, she couldn't ruin his affairs.

What's more, the person who really harmed her was not Haoyang, but that little bitch.

If it weren't for the ointment she gave her, her face would be like this. Fortunately, Hao Yan tied her up, but even so, her appearance could not be restored.

The Imperial Temple is not an ordinary place. The people inside it are all the relatives of the emperors of the past dynasties.

The abbot did not want Concubine Rong to act like this and disturb the purity of these immortals. He sent a young monk to persuade her several times before Concubine Rong stopped. She was indeed angry and fainted.

After calming down, he immediately realized that this was an unusual temple, and asked the nanny next to him to add some money for sesame oil, thinking that the matter was settled.

Little did they know that the next day, Concubine Rong and Taiping caused a night disturbance in the Imperial Temple, which came to the ears of Emperor Yuan'an.

Emperor Yuan'an was furious and dared to disturb the purity of his ancestors during the New Year. But he wanted to ruin his Yuan Kingdom's luck in the coming year?

Immediately he ordered the black-armored guards to bring the people back.

Concubine Rong left the palace secretly late at night just to cover up others' eyes. However, when it was revealed, Emperor Yuan'an not only asked her to punish her for leaving the palace secretly, but he also directly investigated the disfigurement of Shengping overnight, and found Gu Honghao in just two days.

However, after all, Gu Honghao had many supporters in the court, and many ministers expressed to the court that he had been framed. Princess Taiping was clearly in the imperial temple when the incident occurred, but Gu Honghao was far away in Kyoto, a hundred miles away, so she must have been there. It doesn't matter.

Emperor Yuan'an said that the servants around Taiping had already confessed. Taiping was indeed at Gu Honghao's house when the accident happened. Afterwards, he learned that Concubine Rong was out of the palace and was afraid that the incident would be exposed, so he quickly sent the person back to the imperial temple.

But no matter whether the evidence was in front of him or not, many ministers in the court still spoke for him, and behind the screen that they could not see, a historian was silently writing down the names of those who opposed it.

Because the matter between Gu Honghao and Taiping was related to the royal family's reputation, and because most of the ministers in the court supported Gu Honghao, Emperor Yuan'an finally had no choice but to let it go, and only gave him a symbolic penalty of five months in isolation, while Taiping and Concubine Rong were banned for half a year.

This result was already a blessing among misfortunes. If Emperor Yuan'an didn't want to go into details, otherwise these ministers would not be able to protect Gu Honghao even if they tried their best to advise him.

So when they heard that there was only a grounding and no other punishment, all the ministers who supported Gu Honghao breathed a sigh of relief.

What happened in the capital had nothing to do with An Jinshu in the prison. The news that Gu Yao was not outside could not be transmitted, and the news inside could not be transmitted.

She calls Qingge every day, but Qingge never shows up.

Not to mention Gu Qingchen, who has not been here since the last time he sent her back. It has been five days. Except for the extra jailer, there is no difference between the dungeon and the past.

An Jinshu ate and slept in the prison, but little did he know that there was already an undercurrent surging outside, and waves were rising everywhere.

Mrs. Qu sat in front of Mrs. An's bed in Yang Yuan's palace. She couldn't help but choke when she looked at Mrs. An's hair, which turned gray in just a few days, and her tearful eyes.

"Mom, don't worry. My husband and Ran'er will definitely be able to resolve this family crisis. I've also met my father and asked him to help with external relations. Don't worry, our family will be able to turn the crisis around soon."

Mrs. An's eyes were dull and she was extremely old. She leaned on the couch and looked at Mrs. Qu. She didn't want to hear these words of comfort. She sighed in annoyance and blamed herself: "It's all my fault. I was blinded by lard and believed that." You are a traitor, you are unjustly accusing that child Chen'er, and you are telling me that Yan Yatou is not sensible, but in fact Yan Yatai is more enlightened than any of us."

"I should have believed Yantou in the beginning and wouldn't have let that kid Chen'er hold a grudge against us. I never thought that he was really the prince, cough cough cough..."

As soon as Mrs. An mentioned that Gu Qingchen couldn't stop coughing, Qu helped her pat her back to calm it down, while Mrs. Wang brought water over.

Mrs. Qu waited for her to drink some water and said consolingly: "It's not my mother's fault for this. I was also at fault. Our An family wrongly blamed Chen'er. We owe him all our lives. I was also angry at the beginning that he had unethical intentions towards Yan Yatou. I thought It seems that I indulge him too much on weekdays, and I just want to make him suffer some pain so I can stop thinking about it, but I don’t know that my husband... ugh."

As she spoke, she shook her head dejectedly: "It's too late to say anything now. We say we treat that child as our own, but in reality we can see that we have never treated him sincerely. He deserves to be hated. Poor Yan Yatou, We tried so hard to protect him back then, but now we, the elders, are suffering in prison."

Just as An Ruhe came in from the outside, he saw that his old lady An had a nose that was neither a nose nor an eye. She snorted coldly and turned away, as if she didn't want to pay attention to her.

"I heard that my mother is holding her sick son and I came here to have a look." After entering the room, An Ruhe walked to the couch and frowned in worry.

The once seven-foot tall man could not hide his decadence now. The fact that his military symbols were taken back and his power was relinquished was obviously a big blow to him. He used to be high-spirited and full of ambition, but now his eyes are tired and blue.

"I don't need you to care. Instead of caring about me, an old woman, you should care about your daughter who is locked up in the prison. Look at what you have done. You are in vain as a minister! How dare you? .”

Mrs. An had scolded him every time she saw him since the incident. The crimes he had committed were clearly written in the imperial edict. She had been a loyal and loyal member of the An family for generations, but now she was in trouble with her own son.

She really couldn't afford to lose this person! How to face the old man under the Nine Springs after a hundred years of death.
