After the Divorce, I Was Spoiled By the Prince

   Chapter 233 Confrontation with the emperor, life and death

Before the news of    reached Qin Zhao's ears, someone immediately reported it to Xiao Ce.

  Xiao Ce's face was gloomy, and he ordered coldly: "Check this matter quickly, catch the rumor maker, cut off the root of the tongue, and set an example!"

   When Qin Zhao received the news, it was two days later, and a grandma came to the Hall of Mental Cultivation at this time, saying that the emperor had an invitation.

   Qin Zhao knew something was wrong.

  The emperor suddenly saw her, I'm afraid it's not just a simple question. If the emperor wanted to kill her silently in order to save trouble, and let the rumors end with her death, it is also very possible.

   She looked at Bao Ping, Bao Ping understood and gave her a secret wink, she knew that Bao Ping would go to the main hall to move Xiao Ce, the rescuer.

   She calmly followed her to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

   There was no one in front of the emperor to serve, and Qin Zhao knew when he saw it that the emperor could not ask questions about the scandals circulating outside the palace in front of his servants.

   After greeting the emperor, she stepped aside and stood still.

   "Is it true that you live under the same roof as Zhao Yu in Changzhou?" The emperor went straight to the point.

"In the words of the emperor, when the people of Changzhou were displaced, Master Zhao was eager to deal with the disaster, and he was not picky about where he lived, so he moved into the house temporarily found by Master Wu. At that time, not only Master Zhao lived in that house, but King An was also there. The resident, as well as other female relatives also live in the house. Besides, Mr. Zhao is running around day and night, and the number of times that his concubine has met with Mr. Zhao is very small. If the emperor does not believe it, he can send someone to Changzhou to investigate the matter thoroughly. ." Qin Zhao replied respectfully.

   What she said was also true.

   In addition to her female family, Xiaoyu lived there, and Wu Zhong's family was there to take care of it, and of course other servants of the Wu family lived there, not just her and Zhao Yu living alone in the house.

   "No matter what the truth is, you have damaged the reputation of the royal family. There is only one way to stop the world's lingering voices..."

At this time, Qin Zhao dared to interrupt the emperor's words: "It's not a way to make the concubine shut up forever. The concubine thought that if the emperor really wanted to do that, it would prove that the rumors were true, and this was the real damage to the royal reputation. Someone maliciously smeared the royal family. Shouldn’t the rumor-monger be severely punished to set an example? Otherwise, there are two. On the surface, this time it seems to be smearing the concubine, but in fact, the person who the other party really wants to harm is His Royal Highness. It is not a pity to die. But His Royal Highness is the Crown Prince of Da Qi, and he was maliciously slandered by a villain, such a person must not be kept!"

The emperor    looked at Qin Zhao coldly, and then glanced at the direction of the entrance of the hall.

   Qin Zhao was shocked when he saw this detail, and suddenly realized that the emperor was waiting for Xiao Ce.

   If Xiao Ce ran to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to save her, the emperor would probably actually kill her.

   is the most unpredictable emperor's heart, the emperor wants to kill her is only a matter of words, and the person who the emperor is really testing this time is actually Xiao Ce.

After Qin Zhao wanted to understand the twists and turns, she knelt in front of the imperial court with a sad face: "Since His Highness brought the concubine back to the East Palace from Changzhou, His Highness has left the concubine in the cold. The concubine didn't understand before. What is the truth? Just now I suddenly understood a truth. It turns out that His Royal Highness does not believe in the concubine body. In this case, why didn't His Royal Highness simply let the concubine body fend for itself outside the palace in order to bring the concubine body back to the palace? , is it possible that the achievement is just to save the royal family's face?"

   As long as the emperor believes that Xiao Ce doesn't value her, the emperor will not take her life, and then expect Xiao Ce to be smarter than her, knowing that to save her will harm her instead.

  The emperor heard Qin Zhao's last words, and his mind moved.

   As long as the Crown Prince does not value the Qin family, it is all right to leave the Qin family alive.

Qin Zhao quickly thought of another character. She took it to heart and said bitterly: "The emperor does not know, but the person who really likes Lord Zhao is Wu Liangyuan. Wu Liangyuan has been fond of Lord Zhao for a long time, and the two have arrived. Talking about marriage. His Royal Highness also knows about this, but His Royal Highness still let Wu Liangyuan enter the East Palace and become Liangyuan, probably because His Royal Highness loves Wu Liangyuan so much..."

   "Wu Liangyuan and Zhao Yu are in love with each other?" The emperor couldn't hide his surprise.

"Yeah, this is a fact known to the Zhao family. His Royal Highness is also an insider. His Royal Highness is even more infatuated. Knowing this, he also let Wu Liangyuan enter the East Palace. The concubine thought that His Royal Highness had confessed to the emperor, but it turned out that he had never Right?" Qin Zhao was actually a little surprised.

   At that time, it was suddenly heard that the emperor had given an oral edict to let Wu Xiyu enter the East Palace as a liangdi. She thought that Xiao Ce would tell the emperor about this.

   It turned out that Xiao Ce didn't say anything, so he took over the "gift" from the emperor.

   Should we say Xiao Ce is wonderful, or should we say Xiao Ce is filial?

   "You continue to say, I want to listen to the facts. You must know that deceiving the emperor is a death penalty!" The emperor's eyes darkened.

  If what Qin Zhao said was true, then Wu Liangyuan would not be allowed to stay.

Qin Zhao hurriedly said: "The concubine's statement is true, because there are many witnesses in the Zhao residence. The fact that His Royal Highness is pleased with Wu Liangyuan is not a secret in the Zhao residence. Just ask any servant and you will know that it is true. It is no longer a secret that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is only fond of Wu Liangyuan. When Wu Liangyuan entered the East Palace, His Royal Highness also deliberately raised his concubine as a good concubine, in fact, he wanted to pull the concubine out and block the sword for Wu Liangyuan..."

   Anyway, in order to survive, the fake must be said to be true, and most of what she said is the truth, so she is not afraid of the emperor going to Zhao's house to check.

After listening to Qin Zhao's words, the    emperor was silent for a long time.

   When Qin Zhao first entered the palace, his appearance was unremarkable, and he felt strange at the time, why the prince alone treated Qin Zhao differently, but at that time he felt it was innocuous, so he didn't go into it.

  If what Qin Zhao said is true, Wu Liangyuan is the real scourge. And Wu Liangyuan is also the niece of Concubine Wu, and Concubine Wu is his favorite concubine.

   At this moment, the emperor basically believed Qin Zhao's words.

   But Qin Zhao failed to leave the Mental Cultivation Hall immediately. Qin Zhao himself knew that the emperor was waiting to see Xiao Ce's reaction.

   Qin Zhao has been away from the East Palace for so long, it is impossible for no one to inform Xiao Ce. If Xiao Ce received the news and rushed over to save Qin Zhao, it means that in Xiao Ce's heart, Qin Zhao has a certain weight.

  If Xiao Ce ignored Qin Zhao, then Qin Zhao would be insignificant.

   Qin Zhao knelt for another hour before the emperor showed mercy and allowed her to leave the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

The moment    walked out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Qin Zhao breathed a sigh of relief. My knee hurts a lot, but I managed to avoid a catastrophe.

  People say that companions are like companions to tigers, which is really not a joke. I don't know if the emperor will really check Wu Xiyu's details after this time. If the emperor went to investigate, he would know the past between Wu Xiyu and Zhao Yu.

   Then the rumors from outside the palace today would not pose a threat to her.

   As for the gossip, it must be spread by her enemies. And her enemies in the East Palace are not just one or two, they basically treat her as an enemy.

  The suspect is either Wu Xiyu, Wang Zhaoxun, Li Chenghui, or He Liangdi, and others are also suspected.

  ——

  Thank you for your rewards, monthly and recommended tickets, Zhaozhao's eloquence is still good.
