After rebirth, tear the black-hearted husband to pieces and step on the evil mother-in-law
Chapter 251: Past and Future
Concubine Chen took the initiative and said, "Your Majesty, Yan Zhaorong can testify for me. When Yan Zhaorong entered the palace with Concubine Li, she was her personal maid and served her diligently for many years. During the days when Concubine Li passed away, Yan Zhaorong was always by her side.
Your Majesty named her Zhaorong, wasn't it because of her service to Concubine Li? And he also wanted to learn the truth about Concubine Li's death from her.
With the Queen around, how dare she tell Your Majesty the truth of the past? If she knew that the Queen was impersonated by the witch from Nanxiang Country, she would definitely tell the truth of the past. "
Unexpectedly, before Emperor Deshun could speak, Nan Qiuzhi laughed and said, "Noble Concubine Chen, Noble Concubine Chen, you are really stupid.
Do you think that when His Majesty was drunk and favored Yan Zhaorong, he mistook her for Concubine Li? Do you think that His Majesty named her Zhaorong because of the master-servant relationship between her and Concubine Li?
This is totally wrong. Since she was given the title of Zhaorong and gave birth to Princess Yongle, why didn't Your Majesty make her a consort? Why hasn't she been promoted for more than ten years?
If Yan Zhaorong really had a deep relationship with Concubine Li as a servant, and she knew the inside story, she would risk her life to protect her master before Concubine Li passed away, and she would tell the truth even at the risk of her life who killed Concubine Li. "
“Hahaha…” Nan Qiuzhi laughed loudly, looking up to the sky. “The cunning and scheming of our Majesty is so great that even I, who have lived for eighty or ninety years, would have to admit defeat, let alone the conspiracies and intrigues of the two of you?”
Concubine Chen looked at Nan Qiuzhi in shock and suddenly realized.
Only then did he understand that after Concubine Li passed away, Emperor Deshun arranged for Yan Zhaorong to be a tea-serving maid in the Empress's Dexian Palace.
One year after Concubine Li passed away, Emperor Deshun happened to meet Yan Zhaorong, who was crying bitterly for her master in the Pear Garden behind the Imperial Garden. He discussed with the Empress and decided to transfer Yan Zhaorong from Dexian Palace to Jingtai Pavilion to take care of Prince An who had just recovered from a serious illness.
In fact, Prince An's illness was not serious at that time. It was Concubine Chen who secretly bribed Yan Zhaorong before Concubine Li passed away, and through Yan Zhaorong, she mixed chronic poison into Concubine Li's nourishing soup every day.
The date was calculated exactly. When the Queen was about to hold a silkworm banquet and needed the assistance of the concubines, Concubine Li went to Dexian Palace early in the morning and died of the poison.
Concubine Chen's idea at that time was to kill two birds with one stone.
Originally, after Concubine Li passed away, she wanted to secretly get rid of the troublesome Yan Zhaorong. However, Emperor Deshun conducted a strict investigation into Concubine Li's death and did not implicate the Empress. Yan Zhaorong was transferred to the Empress's Dexian Palace.
Concubine Chen was just Concubine Chen back then. Prince Jin had just turned ten years old, and her mother's family was not strong enough, with few followers. In order to accumulate power and protect Prince Jin, she also wanted to prevent the Queen from secretly getting rid of her and her son.
Concubine Chen could only continue to secretly give benefits to Yan Zhaorong and make Yan Zhaorong her secret agent in Dexian Palace.
It’s a pity that Yan Zhaorong was fed too much by Concubine Chen, and those small favors could no longer satisfy her selfish desires.
Hence, there was the story of "Lying in the Pear Garden Thinking of Her Master", which moved Emperor Deshun for a moment and he transferred Yan Zhaorong to Jingtai Pavilion to take care of Prince An.
When Concubine Chen found out, she had never tolerated Prince An in her heart and was jealous that Emperor Deshun favored Prince An too much. She took advantage of Yan Zhaorong to put a chronic poison in Prince An's medicine.
For this reason, Concubine Chen had to accrue a lot of money to support Yan Zhaorong's bottomless pit.
Just before Prince An was dying of an incurable cough, there was a birthday banquet for Concubine Li. Emperor Deshun was drunk and mistook Yan Zhaorong for Concubine Li. He favored her that night and named her Zhaorong the next day and gave her the Furong Pavilion.
At that time, Concubine Chen thought that Yan Zhaorong was too ambitious and was willing to pretend to be Concubine Li to win favor in order to climb onto the dragon bed.
Now, Imperial Concubine Chen seems to have just woken up from her dream. In fact, all of this was not planned step by step by Yan Zhaorong. Instead, after Concubine Li passed away, Emperor Deshun asked Yan Zhaorong several times about the reason for Concubine Li's death, but Yan Zhaorong did not tell Emperor Deshun the real truth.
Therefore, Emperor Deshun planned every step carefully and designed such a scheme.
Keeping Yan Zhaorong here is waiting for this day.
It was too late for Concubine Chen to realize that Emperor Deshun had already ordered Yun Xi to bring Yan Zhaorong to Jingshou Palace.
Yan Zhaorong knew that her time was up, so she knelt down and bowed her head, telling the truth about what had happened in the past, and asked Emperor Deshun to show mercy and forgive the innocent Princess Yongle.
Emperor Deshun looked at them solemnly and ordered, "Yunxi, take Yan Zhaorong and Nan Qiuzhi to the prison for criminal discipline. Make sure they are interrogated about their crimes in detail."
"Yes!"
Yun Xi took the order and was about to escort Yan Zhaorong away with his men, but Yan Zhaorong refused to leave no matter what. She struggled and screamed, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Yongle is innocent. She is your own daughter. Please spare her life!"
Unexpectedly, Emperor Deshun frowned and said, "Yongle is indeed innocent and is also my daughter. Then, what is Prince An guilty of? He is also my biological son. When you poisoned his medicine, did you consider the innocence of the child? Did you consider the kindness that Concubine Li had shown you?"
Upon hearing this, Yan Zhaorong felt extremely regretful. Concubine Li had indeed treated her like her own sister, but her parents had passed away, and she had three brothers and two sisters who had no one to rely on. The monthly salary she received from Concubine Li was not enough to support her brothers and sisters.
If her family had not been so poor, why would her parents have sold her as a maid for money?
If she had not taken refuge with Concubine Chen, how could her three younger brothers have the money to study, and how could they be recommended to be officials from the Secretariat?
She did give her younger siblings a good career and destiny, but her Yongle was only thirteen years old, not yet of marriageable age. Who could give him such a good life?
Even if her brothers became officials, couldn't Emperor Deshun still kill them with just one word?
Even if her sisters all married well, being divorced would be the lightest punishment for what she had done. I'm afraid Emperor Deshun would want to tear her entire clan into pieces.
Tears flowed down my cheeks, I regretted what I had done, but I couldn't go back to the past.
Yan Zhaorong cried very hard and shouted, "I am willing to be torn into pieces to relieve your majesty's anger. I only ask your majesty to give Yongle a chance to live."
As soon as the voice fell, Yan Zhaorong broke free from the eunuch's grasp and leaped towards the soldier lying on the ground holding a silver knife.
The sharp blade cut her flesh and bones, her eyes were bloodshot, and she could vaguely hear the sound of her first night. Emperor Deshun pressed her down, repeating Concubine Li's maiden name, and Princess Yongle calling her mother in a baby voice.
It was also at this time that she suddenly realized that Emperor Deshun not only had no affection for her, but had always used her as a pawn to check and balance the Empress and Concubine Chen.
Why did Emperor Deshun let her go to Dexian Palace to be the Queen's tea-serving maid? It was to make her involved with the Queen.
Although Yan Zhaorong was not cut into pieces by the sharp blade.
But the blade pierced into the bone and he died in a very ugly way.
When Emperor Deshun saw this, his face showed no emotion at all. He simply said, "Imprison Yan Zhaorong's clansmen and await their fate. Yan Zhaorong killed her master and caused chaos in the harem. She will be stripped of her title and thrown into a mass grave."
After the voice fell, Emperor Deshun slowly turned his head and looked at Concubine Chen, his eyes were extremely cold.
