Chapter 18 [One Eight] Emperor's Heart

After all, Xie Yu went down the mountain and returned to the palace.

It was clear that no one was keeping him in Jingming Temple, the more he thought about it, the more blocked he became, he immediately got on the shoulder chariot angrily, and went all the way back to the palace puffing up.

When Xie Yu returned to Fengyi Palace that day, he was called to him by Queen Wang.Originally there were still several female family members of the Wang family in the palace, but when they saw the third prince, they all left.

Queen Wang ordered someone to bring a small pier to Xie Yu, poured him another cup of tea, and then asked, "What did your brother say?"

Xie Yu did not sit on the small pier in front of the queen, but sat intimately on the edge of her footrest, with his head resting on her thigh, a little aggrieved: "Brother Huang, he won't say anything."

After it was over, he got up from the foot in embarrassment, knelt down in front of the queen, stretched out his hands, spread his palms, and said in shame: "Mother, please punish the emperor, the emperor failed to help the mother to do a good job."

Queen Wang looked down, swept over his palm slightly, stretched out her hand and pulled him into her arms: "Silly boy, how could the queen mother punish you for such a small matter? Your emperor brother has always had such a temper, You are young, it is normal for him not to tell you."

She put her arms around Xie Yu and said something considerate for a while, and then asked someone to send the third prince back to her palace to rest.

Xie Yu just stepped out of the gate of Fengyi Palace with his front foot, and the queen queen unceremoniously smashed the official kiln teacup in hand as a tribute.A room full of uterine women immediately knelt down in fright.

"The queen is too impatient."

From the screen behind Queen Wang, Shang Shu ordered Wang Youzhi to walk out slowly with his hands behind his back.

Queen Wang's face was not pretty, but facing Wang Youzhi, she still stood up respectfully and called "Uncle" in a low voice.

Queen Wang was born in the Wang family in the capital.The Wang family in the capital was engaged in business in the early years. When it came to Wang Youzhi's generation, among the several sons, only Wang Youzhi, the eldest son, had a promising future. The family of the family has changed from an ordinary merchant to an official family.

Queen Wang's boudoir name is Wang Yanjun, in terms of relationship, she is the daughter of Wang Youzhi's direct brother.Her father was an idiot, and her mother was useless.Queen Wang is able to be where she is today, thanks to her intelligence and Wang Youzhi's promotion.

Therefore, the two of them are people on the same boat no matter what.The prosperity and wealth of the Wang family all depend on them.

But now, Xie Zhang's obscene shrine has become the key to shake the wealth of the Wang family at any time, the queen was naturally worried, and after holding back for a few days, she finally invited Wang Youzhi into the palace for a detailed discussion.

Until Xie Yu entered Fengyi Palace, the female family members of the royal family shrank their necks and listened to the conversation between Wang Youzhi and the queen about the prince in silence as if in the background.

"The third prince is too young, and has been raised by the queen since he was a baby. He doesn't have a deep relationship with the first prince. How can the first prince tell him important things?"

One of Wang You lifted the hem of his clothes and sat down beside him: "Queen, you are too impatient."

Empress Wang gritted her teeth: "How can I not be in a hurry. It is a big deal to set up a private temple for prostitutes and kidnap young girls for the pleasure of high officials and dignitaries. Zhang'er is messing around like this, and he is simply messing around with the position of the prince!"

"so what?"

"So what? Uncle! Lord Shang Shuling! That is the crown prince. Your Majesty does not have only one son, Zhang Er. He can completely abolish the crown prince Zhang Er and choose someone else!"

"Who to choose?"

Empress Wang was slightly startled, staring blankly at Wang Youzhi who was speaking casually.

"Zhang'er can't do it, and there is Yu'er. If Yu'er can't do it again, the empress don't forget that there is still a former crown prince in Jingming Temple."

"No! Except for Zhang'er, no one can become the prince!"

"Then what are you rushing to ask the third prince to find the eldest prince? Stupid!" Wang Youyi shook his sleeves and scolded, "You can't hold your breath, you are impatient, and you pushed the third prince to Jingming Temple just to find out the news. How could you know that it wasn't to make them two brothers get closer! If their brothers really came together, do you think that with the Eldest Prince around, you can keep the matter of raising and disposing of the Third Prince from being discovered by others?"

"But Dali Temple is like an iron wall, and no news can be heard at all. I'm worried..."

"What are you worried about?" Wang Youzhi looked coldly.

Queen Wang opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but Wang Youzhi beat her back unceremoniously.

"I told the empress long ago that if you want to sit high and secure in this palace, you must have a prince who is obedient, smart and not stupid. You see, if there is no prince, how would the empress be promoted from an ordinary concubine to a noble concubine? , and how did you become a queen from a noble concubine. Do you really think that your majesty has much love for you as husband and wife?"

Empress Wang and Empress Yuan married Emperor Xihe successively, but Empress Yuan conceived an heir first, and gave birth to Xie Chen after a full month, who was favored by Emperor Xihe.Empress Wang was smart since she was a child, and she was no longer a Huaichun girl when she was a teenager. She didn't know that Emperor Xihe was willing to let her enter the palace, but it was because of the empress dowager and uncle.

Xi and Di didn't have much affection for her as husband and wife, and they just went to rest in her palace every month as usual.

Such days are not happy.

Not having the emperor's favor is not a problem for the queen, she has the royal family behind her, and more importantly, there is an uncle who is a minister, so whether she loves it or not, Xihe emperor will always give her an heir.And as long as she has a child, she can always maintain her honor, and she may even go further.

Later, she became pregnant and gave birth to the emperor's son. She also went from ordinary concubine to noble concubine as she wished.But since then, she has never conceived a child again, and the Empress Yuan conceived again after a few years.

"I know you are ambitious, and you want to be under one person and above ten thousand. What did I tell you when you planned to kill the second son of the abolished empress?"

Wang You said every word and every word with a solemn voice, after all, he told Queen Wang to calm down, with a look of shame on her face.

"Uncle said at the beginning, guard against arrogance and impetuosity."

"Stop arrogance and impetuosity, can the empress do it? Can the prince do it?"

No.

Queen Wang's face turned pale.

She praised and killed Xie Yu in front of others, in order to let Xie Zhang have no worries about the future, and become the only person who can inherit the throne in the eyes of Emperor Xihe and the courtiers.But as soon as the incident of the obscene temple happened, Zhang'er...

Thinking of this, Empress Wang felt depressed, and not only said in a trance: "Then what should I do... My Zhang'er, my Zhang'er can't do anything! He is the prince, and he is going to be the emperor!"

Wang Youzhi's face was calm, and he almost woke up violently when he heard the sound, and his outburst of anger was suppressed strictly: "Dali Temple is like an iron wall, that's because of Sun Junliang's presence. The Sun family has never stood in line for so many years. If you want to inquire about Dali Temple, you must either win the Sun family over to Zhang'er, or start elsewhere."

"The Crown Princess is from the Sun family, and the Sun family should be on Zhang'er's side, but these years, the Sun family has...never said a word for Zhang'er at all, and the Sun family has never gone to the East Palace. Send a message!"

Wang Youzhi lowered his eyes and sneered: "I told you to get married and not to be enemies, have you heard my words?"

Queen Wang bit her lip.

"The marriage with the Sun family was made by the queen and the crown prince on their own, and they went to beg with His Majesty. Knowing that the Sun family and the Pei family had a relationship, the crown princess was originally the wife of the eldest son of the Pei family, but the queen still let it go. Prince...now that the attitude of the Sun family is right there, what else does the empress want?"

Disgust flashed in Wang Youzhi's eyes, but he still suppressed these emotions when facing Queen Wang.As an official in the court, he has seen and heard much more than the kings and queens who have lived in the deep palace for a long time, so he is naturally more aware of the Sun family's position above the court.

"Queen, it's too late to win over the Sun family now. We need a scapegoat, otherwise the crown prince will not be able to get out of here anyway."

*****

Xihedi has been very anxious recently.

He may be the one with the fewest heirs among the emperors of Da Chu.His harem is not without women, but only three sons and four daughters were able to conceive dragon heirs, give birth to children and raise them.

However, the three sons, Xie Chen became a monk, and Xie Yu was still young. He had been the prince for several years, and Xie Zhang, who had carried many expectations from him, had something happened again...

He even couldn't help thinking, whether the sky forbids him, or this child has always been obedient and obedient.

Facing the crowd of Dali Temple kneeling in the court hall, Emperor Xihe glanced at Sun Junliang, the leader of Dali Temple, but looked at others.

The ministers had different expressions, even though they were in the court, they still couldn't help whispering to each other.

"It's just nonsense, how could Mr. Sun bring these people to the court, it's... It's an insult to gentleness!"

"The matter of the lewd temple is of great importance, how can you not go to the court? Could it be that you have followed there to enjoy the fun, so you are afraid that you will lose face if you are polite and sweep the floor in the court?"

"What kind of decency! What kind of decency! The prince has no virtue, the prince has no virtue!"

The various discussions fell into the ears of Emperor Xihe, as well as the ears of everyone in Dali Temple.If it weren't for Sun Junliang, who is the Minister of Dali Temple, to stand in front of the crowd without kneeling, he might have shrunk back timidly, bowed his body and shivered.

And behind these Dali Temple officials, there are many people kneeling who are a little bit timid.The three people in the lead are the old man who relied on the noodle stall to support himself in finding a woman, the lady Xun who is now following Aunt Feng, and the man who took the initiative to find the Sun family and claimed to be the owner of the blood book under the instigation of someone.

These are all certifications about the prince's private prostitution temple, especially Niangzi Xun, who used her own experience to accuse the prince's prostitute temple of harming the captive girls.

After the incident, Dali Temple used the fastest speed to continuously collect evidence from all parties, pointing out that the construction of the obscene temple was the order of the crown prince himself.

All these evidences were submitted to Emperor Xihe's desk, but it seemed that after the fury of the emperor's birthday had passed, the emperor had been avoiding the matter and had no intention of pursuing Xie Zhang.

But Sun Junliang did not know where to find the women who had been transferred from the prostitute temple, and then used these women to follow the vines to list all the officials who had entered and left the prostitution temple, and handed them over to Emperor Xihe.

Here, both civil and military officials were involved, and many people were even suspected of buying and selling officials by the way.

The bones of several young women were even excavated near the prostitution temple.

There was also a group of bawds brought back by Sun Peng.

Evidence is everywhere.

The ironclad evidence was so strong that even Xihe Di began to sigh.

He wanted to protect Xie Zhang again, how could he...

"Your Majesty, I think that the prince may not know about this matter."

As soon as these words came out, all the eyes in the court hall suddenly turned to Wang Youzhi.Sun Junliang looked sideways at the still calm Master Shang Shuling, and frowned slightly.

"Your Majesty," Wang Youzhi clasped his hands, "The prince is full of vigor, and it is true that he is playful at times, but since he ascended the throne, the prince has been conscientious and dedicated to his duties, and has never done anything immoral. I'm afraid this matter is also misleading."

"Who misled my prince?"

Wang Youzhi glanced at Sun Junliang, bowed and said, "Master Xu, the prince's guest next to the prince, may bear a heavy responsibility."
