The fourth lord acted astonished at the side, and quietly went to see the emperor's expression, "What are you talking about, kid, tell the emperor, my adopted son is not sensible, so I will take him down."

Unexpectedly, Li Ze pointed out, "Since today's family banquet is known to be bad, let's talk about it later."

The fourth prince choked, the emperor didn't seem to care at all, isn't he curious about what he said?

How can this matter be delayed until later, how can it embarrass the emperor if it is settled in private, it is best to reveal this matter in front of so many clans, pull the queen down in one go, and the fourth prince winks at Qiao Yucheng.

Qiao Yucheng knelt down on both knees, saluted and bowed, "Please listen carefully, Your Majesty, this matter concerns the empress and the prince."

The Fourth Prince gritted his teeth and knelt on the ground together, "I would like to report to the emperor that the adopted son of this minister is ignorant, but this matter is of great importance. If it really concerns the empress and the prince... please listen to the emperor."

He Chang'an's first reaction was to go to see the queen mother, but found that the queen mother lacked interest and was looking at the curious and wide-eyed children around her.

He Chang'an then calmed down, shook the emperor's hand, and said with a solemn expression, "What the fourth uncle said is so serious, you should listen to it, it doesn't matter if it hurts me, if it hurts the prince, it will hurt the dynasty." The foundation, I... I don't think the fourth uncle would joke about this on such an occasion, right, fourth uncle?"

Li Ze couldn't help laughing, and said seriously, "Uncle Si Huang naturally wouldn't joke around on such an important occasion, he must have some real evidence to say it, in that case, Uncle Si Huang will let your adopted son talk about it." Bar."

The fourth prince began to grit his teeth. He wanted to push everything to his adopted son. If he wins, he will be his adopted son. If he loses, he will be a sinner. The two of them sang and harmonized and involved him...

With so many people watching, he couldn't allow him to retreat, so the fourth prince gave Qiao Yucheng a look, "Yucheng, what evidence do you have, why don't you hurry up and talk about it?"

Qiao Yucheng was a little excited, and took out an invitation card from his bosom, "To the emperor, may I ask the emperor and the empress if they can see if this is the authentic work of the empress?"

Zheng Shi went forward to pick it up, Li Ze took it and glanced at it, making sure it was Chang'an's handwriting, and handed it to Chang'an.

He Changan was also sure that it was his own handwriting, so he turned around in his heart and asked doubtfully, "It is indeed the handwriting written by Ben Gong. Is there any reasoning in it?"

Qiao Yucheng said excitedly, "Caomin once imitated this handwriting in Hongyuan Bookstore. At that time, I didn't know it was the handwriting of the first empress. Caomin knew someone who also imitated this kind of handwriting."

Qiao Yucheng glanced at He Changan provocatively, so what if he became a queen, he would still pull him down.

He Changan looked at his inexplicable expression of dissatisfaction, and thought indifferently, don't kneel if you have the ability, and speak up when you have something to say...

Qiao Yucheng went on to say, "The person who imitated the handwriting of the former empress is better than the grassroots, and this person looked at and imitated the works of many famous masters in a short period of time, earning a lot of money. This person is He Changan. He has cheated the trust of the Fourth Prince and the Emperor one after another, and he will take care of the prince, so the people have to worry about the prince's safety."

Qiao Yucheng said with tears in his eyes, "Not only the grassroots can prove it, but many gentlemen in Hongyuan Bookstore can prove that this is not fabricated by the grassroots, and He Changan once wrote a book of poems in the handwriting of the former empress to slander the former empress. Clean reputation."

As soon as these words came out, the only private voices in the palace disappeared. Those old people and concubines of the clan didn't know that the empress dowager was almost framed and executed for reputation. Evidence was found to prove that it was a false accusation.

The empress dowager's kind expression was also cold for a moment, and she looked this way.

He Changan was also stunned, and stepped on Li Ze's foot under the cover of the table. Is there any use for the Book of Songs he copied?

Li Ze understood his doubts, and gestured with his fingers: When the poem you wrote was sold, it was explained as a teaser poem.

He Changan's palms were itchy to be painted, and it was hard to look down under the eyes of everyone, so he thought to himself: What are you writing?

The Fourth Prince knelt on the ground below, his face filled with righteous indignation, "It turned out to be like this, Your Majesty, if what my adopted son said is true, this matter must be investigated to the end, whether it is to return the queen to be innocent first, or return the queen to the end." The queen is innocent."

Li Ze said unhurriedly, "According to Uncle Sihuang, how should we investigate this matter, and where should we start?"

Hooked!

The soldiers were in danger, and the fourth prince had long guessed whether He Changan approached the emperor through his handwriting, and now he took this point as a handle in his hands.

Otherwise, what chance does a scholar who is only a bit more handsome have the chance to win the emperor's favor?

Even if the emperor was interested in good looks, he had Qiao Yucheng come here with that intention in mind. Qiao Yucheng was a good-looking man anyway, so if he wanted to accept him, he would accept it together.

Seeing that the emperor is not pretending to Qiao Yucheng now, the fourth prince is completely in favor of He Changan and stepping on the previous empress to take the throne.

I just don't know if the emperor's anger is because the queen framed the previous queen, or because the queen can imitate handwriting?Or, most notably, imitating a number of masterpieces to earn money?

He didn't fake anything here, the Fourth Prince was naturally unwilling to touch it, and wished that the emperor would personally send someone to investigate, he said, "In my opinion, if you want to investigate this matter, you must investigate three things."

"First, the most important thing to check is whether the empress wrote the love poem; second, if the empress can imitate handwriting, the emperor must strictly prohibit the empress from entering and leaving the imperial study in the future; It’s a fake famous masterpiece, which is confused with fish’s eyes.”

When He Chang'an heard these words, he also guessed a little bit. Some people said that the Book of Songs was copied by the first empress?

Guiltily, he moved his foot off Li Ze's shoe, and held Li Ze's warm and dry palm. He hated Li Ze so much when he was copying the Book of Songs, and he never thought that someone would use that poem to tease Li Ze's hair.

As for the imperial study...the emperor's bedroom has a lot of handwriting, if he really wanted to find Li Ze's handwriting, why would he go to the imperial study.

The third point is what he is most worried about, because he didn't sign it when he wrote it, so that the fourth prince can take advantage of it. If the fourth prince buys the fakes he wrote, he really sells them at a high price... Then He couldn't take off this fake hat.

Although Li Ze didn't know why Chang'an was guilty, it was fun to let him play with the hands that came to his door. Li Ze said, "If you don't find out about this matter today, you can't eat it. Since the fourth uncle has something in his heart In the end, then leave this matter to the Fourth Emperor Uncle."

Before the fourth prince had time to be surprised, he heard the emperor say, "Zheng Shi, Zhang Jingyi, the Minister of Dali Temple, was told to accompany Zhang Jingyi to investigate the case."

Before a palace banquet started, one of the protagonists was named by the powerful prince for investigation. Many members of the clan seemed to have seen the subsequent ending, and all looked regretfully at the empress who was sitting above.

The empress heard the emperor whisper, "Look sad."

He Changan: "???"

He did.

Li Ze scanned the expressions of the people below, and wrote down all those who were happy and gloating.

In order not to delay the family banquet, the palace banquet was held as usual. When it was about to officially start, Zheng Shi came over to ask if the silk and bamboo music had started?

Li Ze seemed to have just remembered that there were two people kneeling below, so he asked them to stand up, and complained, "Why didn't the fourth emperor remind me that it was nothing to ask the emperor to kneel for so long."

The fourth prince was nearly fifty years old, and he had never worked so hard before. He angrily supported Qiao Yucheng to get up, and thanked him gratefully.

Halfway through the family banquet, Zhang Jingyi arrived outside the palace gate, and Zheng Shi came in to report.

Li Ze hugged the prince who was sitting on the side to He Changan, "The queen will look at the prince first, don't worry, I will come as soon as I go."

The Fourth Prince was called out together with Qiao Yucheng, and followed behind Li Ze.

He Changan asked Li Ting in a low voice, "Do you like sweet or salty?"

Li Ting has been taught etiquette, and he sits upright, but sitting next to familiar people is a bit uninhibited. He whispered, "My queen, I like sweet cakes, and I like salty porridge."

"..." He Changan served him meat porridge, and prepared a piece of sweet pastry for him.

In addition to playing music and dancing at the family banquet, there are no concubines in the harem, and the princesses of the previous emperors have already married, so there are people who play the flute and dance afterwards, both of which are from the clan women.

After a girl danced a celebratory dance, the atmosphere in the hall returned to enthusiasm. Some clans took advantage of the situation and wanted to ask the empress dowager to give their daughter a marriage. Queen.

The clan woman took a look at He Chang'an's side, then stopped talking and then retreated in desperation.

When this happened, He Changan was picking up food for Li Ting, so he didn't notice. After a while, Yunqiu came over to mention this incident, He Changan raised his eyebrows, "Which one?"

"Mrs. Chen Junwang's wife." Yun Qiu respectfully said, the emperor wants to check on the empress, it is a matter between the emperor and the court, she is serving the empress dowager, as long as the empress is the master, she will be respectful all day.

Because of this, she also looked down on the wife of Prince Nachen, and she didn't use her brain to propose marriage at such a critical moment. The emperor already has a legitimate queen, and you deliberately bypassed the queen to ask the queen mother. You are alienating the queen mother Is the emperor's mother and child in love?

Yunqiu understood what he was thinking, not to mention that the queen mother was very optimistic about the queen, and immediately agreed to the emperor's hasty appointment of the queen, and even handed over the prince to the empress to take care of him. The emperor can know the position of the empress in the emperor's heart.

There are even more rumors that the emperor's board and lodging are shared with the queen, and the queen's position is basically unbreakable.

From the position she stood just now, it was clear that the empress and empress were still holding hands when she was accused. When the matter is investigated clearly, everyone will know that the wife of Prince Chen is a fool.

He Chang'an felt that there was no need to be as knowledgeable as this lady, so he asked a few more words, and learned that it was the mother of the girl who came out to dance just now. He saw that the girl was generous, so he went back to Yunqiu and let the Queen Mother deal with it.

Li Ting stared at the side, "Is the mother-in-law being bullied by that lady?"

He Changan teased him, "How can you see that?"

Li Ting half-understood, "My auntie told me that if someone gives someone else what should be decided by me instead of me, that person is a traitor."

Before the little prince said these things, He Changan didn't pay attention to them. Now it's the second time he said it. He hugged Li Ting closer, "Is there anyone around you who betrayed the lord?"

Li Ting said in an old-fashioned way, "Yes, I ordered someone to beat that eunuch [-] boards, and the empress dowager praised me for doing the right thing."

He raised his head, his handsome smile blushed slightly, "I want my mother to praise me too."

"Okay, Li Ting is really powerful. If something like this happens in the future, you can tell Father and let him deal with it." He Changan felt that it didn't matter if he encountered such a thing, but he didn't want such a slave who betrayed the master to appear around Li Ting at all.

Li Ting followed what he said just now, "Why didn't the empress dowager punish that person? The empress dowager said that if there is one, there will be two, and the second time it will be even worse."

He Changan scratched his hair in confusion, trying to reason with the little prince, "The traitor to the lord is someone who serves you, and it's up to you to deal with him. The lady just now... is also up to me, but his husband I don't know what it has to do with your father, whether the relationship is good or not, let's make a decision after your father comes back."

He Chang'an felt a little overwhelmed. If he was a girl, he would not have been so troubled by dealing with these in-laws since elementary school, but what he studied was all Confucianism and Mencius, and his major was wrong.

The queen mother smiled lightly when she heard the queen's message, "Since Ai's family has already handed over the palace power, it is inconvenient to take care of it. The queen is a scholar, and she doesn't want to deal with it. Then let the emperor also hand over this matter to the emperor. He promised at the beginning. For Aijia, he will do all the things that the queen is not good at."
