Baishou loses Shaohua

In the main hall of Jinyang Palace, a woman wearing a pomegranate red dress knelt on the ground. Her face, which looked extremely bright, was now astonishingly green and white. Dielianhua Jinbuyao trembled slightly.

The room was silent, Empress Zhou was sitting on the main seat, Yu Chenglie and Yu Chenglin were standing on both sides, and Du Ping, a young eunuch from Ziwei Palace, was standing under the hall.

Not long after, Aunt Zi Xi who was beside Empress Zhou opened the curtain and came in, she nodded and said, "Empress Empress, someone has brought you here."

Empress Zhou nodded: "Bring it in."

The one who came in was a little palace maid who looked only seventeen or eighteen years old. She knelt down in front of Empress Zhou with a "plop", trembling as she kowtowed: "Slaves... Slaves kowtow to the empress, to kowtow to His Royal Highness, to kowtow Fourth Highness."

The woman next to her raised her head when she heard the voice, and she looked at the little maid kneeling next to her in surprise, her face full of disbelief.

"Mother... Your Majesty..." The little maid seemed to be very afraid of her, her face was even paler than before, and her whole body trembled into a ball.

"You...It turned out to be you." The woman's eyes widened, and she pointed at the little maid, her long red nails were like knives, almost poking into the little maid's eyes.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!" The little maid screamed and avoided, but the woman suddenly made a gesture to rush over.

"Hold her!" Empress Zhou yelled, and immediately two maids stepped forward to suppress the woman.

"Don't be afraid." Empress Zhou looked at the little maid, "Tell me exactly what Concubine Yan asked you to do. If you tell a lie, you will know the consequences of bullying."

"Your maidservant said...all my maidservant said." After the shock just now, the little palace maid burst into tears, "Concubine Yan asked the maidservant to bribe Xian'er, the palace maid in the Royal Kitchen who was in charge of delivering meals to Ziwei Palace, and let her be in the palace of Concubine Liu. Drugs in the meals."

"You're talking nonsense!" Concubine Yan who was suppressed by the side retorted hoarsely.

"Slaves don't dare to talk nonsense...the empress can ask Xian'er to confront her." The little palace maid kowtowed and wept.

"There's no need to confront, Xian'er already recruited yesterday." After Zhou Queen finished speaking, she looked at Concubine Yan, "What else do you have to say?"

Concubine Yan knelt there and shook her head desperately: "Empress, my concubine has been wronged."

Empress Zhou was extremely angry: "You are a dignified concubine, but you use such insidious means to murder Concubine Liu, where does your grievance come from!"

Concubine Yan was stunned by Empress Zhou's angry reprimand, and then she immediately came back to her senses, and pointed at the little palace maid tremblingly: "Empress, it must be her...she must have done it, it was her who killed Concubine Liu, Now it's her turn to frame me, it must be her..."

Concubine Yan struggled hoarsely under the hands of the two maids: "Why did you frame me? Who asked you to frame me?"

The little palace maid looked at Concubine Liu in horror, and suddenly bent down and bowed deeply, her voice was full of despair: "Your Majesty, you treat your servants well, so your servants have done everything for your Majesty. For the past few years, this servant has been unable to sleep peacefully every night, and this servant has a disturbed conscience! The third prince who persuaded you to stop is no longer here, and the concubine Liu can no longer pose a threat to you, why can't you let her go..."

"What do you mean?" Yu Chenglie suddenly took a step forward.

"You mean the third brother...the third brother..." Yu Chenglin's face was full of shock and disbelief.

"Zi Xi! Report to His Majesty immediately!" The always dignified Queen Zhou also changed her face.No one thought that behind Concubine Liu being poisoned, there was such a shocking secret.

Empress Zhou's order seemed to have awakened Concubine Yan from her dream. She stared blankly at the astonished faces of the crowd, and sat crookedly on the ground. Her hair, which was a little loose from the struggle just now, couldn't bear the butterfly. The weight of Lianhua Buyao collapsed, and Buyao fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

According to historical records, in the spring of the 18th year of Chongde in Beining, Emperor Chongde ordered Prince Yu Chenglie to re-investigate the case of rebellion against the third prince Yu Chengjue and Zhen'an Hou Liuqi.After investigation, it was found that the case of the third prince Yu Chengjue and Zhen'anhou Liuqi's treason case was framed by his concubine Yan to fight for favor. Torture is a trick.

As soon as the truth came out, the world was in an uproar.From the officials down to the common people, everyone said that the Yan's father and daughter's trick of killing people with a knife is really vicious and vicious.

In the end, Concubine Yan was bestowed with death, and all the palace officials involved in the incident were executed with sticks. Yan Qingshen committed suicide in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, and all other party members involved were executed.The remaining members of the Yan family were sent to a remote and desolate place in the extreme north, and they were never allowed to enter Li'an for a lifetime, and they were not allowed to enter the court as officials for generations.

The Liu family was wronged and recalled to Li'an.Liu Qi, the Marquis of Zhen'an, pursued his posthumous posthumous title as Marquis Gong Wu, and his only daughter, Liu Lianjun, was enshrined as Princess Qingyi, the nephew of Empress Zhou's natal nephew who was married to Empress Zhou.The birth mother of the third prince, Liu, was named a noble concubine, and the third prince, Yu Cheng, decided to move her burial from the west side of the mausoleum farthest from the prepared mausoleum of Emperor Chongde to the left side of the eldest prince Yu Chengling, who was next to the prepared mausoleum of Emperor Chongde.

So far, the biggest injustice case in Beining’s history has finally come to an end. Emperor Chongde’s four words “take this as a warning” next to this page of the “Beining Tongjian” submitted by the historian and still being compiled are a warning to future generations.

Yu Chenglie and Yu Chenglin walked out of the Chaohua Palace side by side, the night was getting dark.

"Shouldn't Concubine Liu's foot ban be withdrawn, what should I do if my father didn't mention my second brother?" Yu Chenglin asked as he walked.

"Father asked me to supervise the country. I should ask my mother about the harem." Yu Chenglie said, "But since Father didn't mention it, it probably means that it can't be withdrawn."

"Why is this? The third brother is clearly not guilty, and the Liu family has been rehabilitated. Why is Concubine Liu still being grounded? Although she is promoted, what is the use if the grounding is not revoked?" Yu Chenglin was indignant "In the final analysis, it is not that the father listened to Yan Qingshen's one-sided words and condemned hastily, causing the third brother to suffer such injustice for nothing, and hate Jiuquan!"

"Presumptuous!" Yu Chenglie yelled angrily, his brows furrowed, he looked around and lowered his voice and said, "You are so old now, why don't you speak thoughtfully, father, you can complain!"

Yu Chenglin was taken aback by Yu Chenglie's rare seriousness, and then whispered aggrievedly: "I'm not wrong either."

Yu Chenglin sighed secretly, Yu Chenglin grew up in this harem of open and secret fighting but still can have this frankness, although it is gratifying but also worrying, I don't know whether it is a blessing or a curse for him.

"Father has his reasons for doing this." Yu Chenglie patiently explained, "With Concubine Liu's current appearance, the foot ban may not be a bad thing for her."

"Why is this?"

"The grievances have been cleared up. No one in the front and back palace knows. This ban has no real effect in the eyes of everyone. But once it is cancelled, if Concubine Liu leaves the Ziwei Palace and is targeted by people with ulterior motives, or just a few words spread If it gets into Concubine Liu's ears, that's probably the most troublesome thing." Yu Chenglie added, "But if Concubine Liu does not leave Ziwei Palace, many things will be much easier to control."

Yu Chenglin had heard it, and nodded thoughtfully: "It seems that you can't be careless. Concubine Liu Mu is now living only on an illusory thought."

"Yeah." Yu Chenglie looked up at the stars in the sky. This huge palace is cold and cautious. He misses the old days outside the palace many times. There are not so many schemes and calculations and no need to be so careful. beware.Simple tea and light meals, drinking and playing chess, with someone by my side, how unrestrained and pleasant.Sadly, those days are gone forever.

At this moment, a bodyguard ran over in a hurry not far away, and it was only when he got close that he could clearly see that it was the bodyguard of Yuexi Gong Yucheng.

"The minister joins His Royal Highness, the Fourth Highness."

"Get up, why are you in such a hurry." Seeing his confidants coming in a hurry, Yu Chenglie already had some guesses in his mind.

"Go back to His Royal Highness, Lord Ming, please see me."

Sure enough... Yu Chenglie turned his head and said to Yu Chenglin: "I'm going back to the palace first, and you should go back to rest earlier. Let's talk about this when you greet the queen mother tomorrow morning."

"I know." Yu Chenglin nodded, "Second elder brother is busy with state affairs and needs to take good care of his body. My younger brother is too dull to share the worries of my father and second elder brother. I will take care of my mother and Concubine Liu. Brother, don't worry too much."

Yu Chenglie was very relieved, he patted Yu Chenglin's shoulder: "Rin'er has really grown up now."

The author has something to say: the feeling of a cold in summer is really uncomfortable, the whole person is groggy and has no energy, but the most uncomfortable thing is the loneliness that comes with the physical discomfort.

I don't know why I suddenly said such a thing here... probably because I really got dizzy with a cold.

Hope you all don't get sick.
