Reborn to marry the emperor, I just want to confuse the emperor and seize the throne

At the same time, Lian Ye and Hong Xiu knelt before the emperor and said in unison before Jiang Fenghua could speak: "It is you, my servant."

Everyone was stunned, and the atmosphere seemed to drop below freezing point.

The emperor glanced at the three of them and asked coldly, "Are you selling handkerchiefs outside the palace together? Or are you deliberately seducing men outside the palace together?"

Hearing these words, Jiang Fenghua felt heartbroken. In his heart, was she so unfaithful to her husband?

Lian Ye pinched Hong Xiu and kowtowed repeatedly, "It was I who wrote the love poem on the handkerchief. The virtuous concubine usually takes care of the little prince and princess. In her spare time, she embroidered some handkerchiefs. It was I who was greedy for money and secretly took the handkerchiefs out of the palace to resell them for silver. In order to sell the handkerchiefs more easily, I wrote the poem on it on my own initiative. The virtuous concubine did not know about this, and I did not do this to seduce anyone."

She and Hongxiu both had the same idea: these obscene poems must not come from the young lady's hands. She is the daughter of Master Jiang, and the Jiang family is a scholarly family. The young lady's reputation must not be tarnished.

They also noticed something wrong on the handkerchief. The handwriting was exactly the same as the young lady's. In this world, apart from Lian Ye's handwriting, there should be no one else's handwriting that is the same as the young lady's.

"Your Majesty, it's really your fault. I'm sorry. It was Lian Ye's fault. I have tarnished the young lady's reputation. Lian Ye shouldn't have stolen the young lady's handkerchief and taken it out of the palace to sell it." Lian Ye almost begged her not to admit it. She still had the little prince and princess to take care of, and the Jiang family.

Jiang Fenghua stared at Lian Ye and tears flowed down her face unconsciously. She knew that these words were not written by Lian Ye. Although Lian Ye was careless, she would never do such an inappropriate thing.

It is a fact that they embroider handkerchiefs and sell them.

"Your Majesty, it is really me. If you don't believe me, I can recite some poems for you." She really started to recite.

"The night is long and deep in the palace walls, and a lonely woman sings alone in an empty room."

"The years in the palace are endless, and the women's complaints are lingering in my heart."

"The prosperous palace is as deep as the sea, and no one pays attention to the women's complaints."

"How many people know the grievances of the palace ladies? They weep and weep alone in sorrow."

"..."

After hearing this, the emperor said sternly, "Okay, stop reciting." These were not love poems about missing one's lover, but poems expressing resentment about loneliness in the palace.

The emperor stared at Jiang Fenghua with cold eyes and asked sarcastically, "Are all the maids around you so learned?"

Jiang Fenghua was speechless. Didn't he mean that she also often read these poems? Was she resenting him?

This is also good, at least he knows that there is a woman in the harem who resents him, otherwise he would really treat her as air.

She is full of self-pity, but isn't she just air?

How could she not feel resentful? Imperial families have been ruthless since ancient times. She finally realized that the emperor was the supreme ruler, the true dragon emperor. How could he possibly show pity to a mere concubine like her?

It was also because the Jiang family had some luck at the time, but they were favored by the empress dowager and the late emperor issued an order to grant them a marriage.

So what if she was his first wife? After more than a year of marriage, he had never set foot in her yard. Even the time he consummated his marriage with her was because he was forced to do so due to the circumstances at the time. As the crown prince, he had no choice but to have sex with her in order to silence the gossips of scholars all over the world and to avoid the embarrassment of favoring his concubine over his wife.

He thought she was the one who announced to the world that they had not consummated their marriage, but she didn't. How could she do that?

He hated her and the Jiang family. For this, he even implicated his eldest brother and father. In order to protect the Jiang family, she even cut off all contact with the Jiang family.

Now he should hate her even more!

Her lips were trembling and her tears were like pearls that had broken off the string. Her body was shaking under the emperor's pressure. She wanted to say no.

"I know I was wrong." Finally, she endured the pain and uttered a few words.

Su Tingwan thought that the emperor would let her off easily if she admitted her mistake. She said, "A palace maid can write such beautiful characters. Does Concubine Xian believe it?"

"It was really written by me. If the Queen doesn't believe it, I can write it for her to see on the spot." Lian Ye said.

Ji Chen also didn't believe that a palace maid could write such beautiful characters. The fact that Su Tingwan could take out these handkerchiefs to frame Jiang Fenghua meant that she had already found someone to imitate Jiang Fenghua's handwriting, otherwise she wouldn't have been so confident to frame him in front of the emperor.

The emperor suddenly became interested, "Fulu, bring me paper and pen."

Lian Ye wrote down the words on the handkerchief stroke by stroke. After everyone saw it, they were all surprised that the words were exactly the same as those on the handkerchief. It was indeed written by Lian Ye.

Very few maids in the palace could read, and even if they could, they could only recognize their own names or some common words at most. The maids around Jiang Fenghua could not only write, but also write very well.

Jiang Fenghua didn't know when Lian Ye learned her handwriting. It might be because she taught them too much and she learned to write by imitating them.

Ji Chen asked, "So you want to invite me to the palace?"

Lian Ye was also very smart. "I am not inviting King Ji, nor am I inviting anyone. I am doing this just to sell the handkerchief at a good price. It's a gimmick.

If I knew that these handkerchiefs would fall into the hands of Prince Ji, I would rather not earn the money than sell them to you. " Her meaning was very clear, she was not meeting her lover secretly, nor was she having an affair, she was just doing business, at least she could keep her reputation.

"The Concubine Xian can also write, let her write." Yun Fang added, "If the words written by the Concubine Xian are the same as those on the handkerchief, can it also prove that she was involved?"

"Why don't you ask Concubine Xian to write one as well!" said the Queen. If she dared to write nonsense, it would show that she was guilty. Jiang Fenghua would not be able to escape today.

"I'll write it." Jiang Fenghua did not dodge.

Yunfang also said, "Who knows if the virtuous concubine would deliberately write nonsense."

"Then please ask Miss Yun to go to my palace and get some of my manuscripts for comparison." Jiang Fenghua said.

"How can we trouble Lady Yun with this matter? I will go to Concubine Xian's palace to get some manuscripts." The nanny beside the queen said hurriedly.

The Queen said, "Go ahead, don't wrongly accuse Concubine Xian. By the way, bring Concubine Xian's embroidered handkerchief to let His Majesty have a look. See if it's the same as these handkerchiefs. I'm afraid I've wrongly accused Concubine Xian."

Jiang Fenghua had nothing to say, and the emperor acquiesced.

Suddenly she stood up and walked to the table and wrote: "I live at the head of the Yangtze River, you live at the tail. I miss you every day but I can't see you. We drink the water of the Yangtze River together. When will this water stop flowing, when will this hatred end. I only hope that your heart is like mine, and you will not let me down."

After she finished writing, she personally took it to the emperor and said, "Please understand my words, Your Majesty."

Her handwriting was more majestic and bold than that written by Lian Ye. Xie Shang's eyes were on her handwriting rather than the content.

Jiang Fenghua's handwriting is basically the same as the one on the handkerchief, but upon closer comparison, the words on the handkerchief and Jiang Fenghua's handwriting are not exactly the same.

The Queen saw that the two characters were written by the same person. She said, "Xian Fei usually writes about love. You were born as a concubine in the harem. Where do you put the emperor? Who are you thinking about? Who is waiting for you on the other side of the Yangtze River? The high walls of the palace can't stop your lovesickness. You are still thinking about the man who is tens of thousands of miles away."

"I feel that if I write to someone else, the Queen will not understand it. This poem is easy to understand, and the content and font are roughly the same as those on the handkerchief, which makes it easier for everyone to find out the truth. As for the Queen saying that I was thinking about another man, the innocent are innocent." Jiang Fenghua rarely said something to her.
