Hearing the Prince of Yan's slightly doubtful words, the princess felt relieved.
The princess thought that Shen Wei would definitely strike while the iron is hot and complain to King Yan. However, seeing the look on Prince Yan's face, Shen Wei did not tell the prince about what happened today.
The princess secretly mocked in her heart, this Shen Wei is really timid, destined to accomplish nothing great.
The princess informed the two of their identities: "Your Highness, this woman is Zhang from the Rose Garden, and next to her is the groom of the palace, Sanlang."
Prince Yan stared at Zhang Yue's unfamiliar face and seemed to have some impression of her.
It took me a while to remember that it was the pregnant concubine.
Prince Yan had a very bad impression of Zhang Yue. He believed that Zhang Yue was greedy, vain, cunning and vicious. Even if she got pregnant by chance, Prince Yan would not pay any attention to her.
Zhang Yue slumped on the ground, her heart had sunk to the bottom, she had thought she could regain favor by exposing Shen Wei's affair. Unexpectedly, within half a day, she and Sanlang were captured by the princess.
The way the prince looked at her was strange and disgusted...Zhang Yue felt a chill in her heart. The prince didn't even remember her face. Even if Shen Wei falls, can Zhang Yue really be favored?
"Someone, bring in the maid Fang'er." The princess sat in the empty seat next to Prince Yan and gave the order loudly.
Nanny Liu brought her maid Fang'er into the room.
The princess said calmly, "Fang'er, convey to the prince what you told me today."
Fang Er knelt down and kowtowed heavily: "This servant has reported Zhang Yue for having an affair and defiling the palace. This crime is unforgivable!"
It's quiet inside.
After bowing again, Fang'er continued, "Zhang Yue was jealous of Master Shen's favor, and she framed Master Shen today. Fortunately, the princess was able to see through everything and cleared Master Shen's name."
King Yan frowned and looked at Shen Wei.
Shen Wei smiled weakly: "Don't worry, my lord. The princess is very observant and has cleared my name."
Prince Yan thought of the red marks on Shen Wei's wrist. Could it be that the princess had someone do this? The Prince of Yan wanted to ask more questions, but Zhang Yue started to cry and argue: "Your Majesty, please understand! The child in my belly is really yours!"
The sound was so sharp that it gave King Yan a headache.
Fang Er kowtowed hurriedly: "Your Highness! I have been serving in the Rose Garden for many days, and I have seen the groom Sanlang enter Zhang Yue's room many times, and the two of them were secretly having an affair!"
Zhang Yue was terrified, tears streaming down her face. "Your Majesty, I am innocent. For the sake of the baby in my belly, please investigate!"
Zhang Yue kept begging for mercy, and Fang'er swore in retaliation, and Sanlang was already trembling with fear.
The King of Yan was so annoyed by the noise that he put down his teacup with a bang: "Whether it is true or not, we will know after sending it to the Tiger Guards' Execution Hall for a trial."
The execution hall is where the Tiger Guards interrogate prisoners. Most people go in vertically and come out with their skin peeled off.
The Tiger Guards are different from the ordinary guards in the palace. The Tiger Guards were the private guards maintained by the Prince of Yan. They were responsible for executing the orders issued by the Prince of Yan and protecting his safety.
The palace guards outside the house received the order and dragged Zhang Yue and Sanlang out of the main house. The two cried and begged for mercy, but the guards simply cut off their jaws.
Dragged out of the Glass Pavilion like dragging garbage.
Shen Wei was secretly frightened when she saw this, she thought Fang'er and Zhang Yue would argue for a long time. But in fact, Zhang Yue just made a few sophistry remarks and King Yan was no longer in the mood to listen.
Those in power never bother to care about the disputes among ants.
"Your Highness is wise." The princess stood up and slowly saluted the Prince of Yan. "It is getting late. Cheng Ke and Cheng Zhen will return from class. I will leave first."
Zhang Yue and Sanlang were captured and will not survive the night.
Now that the two were dead, Shen Wei did not dare to complain to King Yan, so the princess had no worries.
The princess felt relieved and wanted to leave with Nanny Liu and the maid.
Just after taking two steps, the cold voice of the King of Yan came: "The Queen Mother has been unwell this year. The Princess should copy three volumes of Buddhist scriptures and send them to the Queen Mother tomorrow."
The princess' body suddenly shook.
She turned around in surprise and saw King Yan sitting on the main seat. The King of Yan had a face as handsome as jade, and the black-gold crown on his head reflected a cold light. He looked solemn and stern, like an emotionless statue.
Strange and distant.
The princess' heart suddenly tightened. The prince of Yan must have guessed what she and Zhang Yue were planning, and also guessed that she was deliberately shirking responsibility...
Copying three volumes of Buddhist scriptures was her punishment. She was punished for being the mistress of the palace, but for being harsh towards concubines and not being able to distinguish right from wrong.
"I...I understand." The princess' knees went weak.
Nanny Liu supported the princess and walked out of the Liuli Pavilion step by step.
The sun was blinding, and Madam Liu looked at the princess' pale face and said worriedly, "Princess, the prince is warning you. Could it be that Shen Wei deliberately instigated and secretly complained?"
The princess shook her head: "That Chen Wei is short-sighted, how could she have such ability... The prince just hates me."
The husband and wife become alienated and dislike each other.
When Prince Yan doesn't love someone, even her breathing is wrong.
"I was careless this time." The princess rubbed her temple tiredly, "Don't bother with the affairs of Liuli Pavilion anymore. Chen Wei is of humble origin. Even if she gets pregnant and has a child, she will never threaten my position."
In fact, if you think about it carefully, she has two sons and one daughter, and has the support of the Tan Tai family. Chen Wei, an ordinary farmer's daughter, cannot threaten her.
only...
The princess' mind flashed with the clasped hands of Prince Yan and Shen Wei. She still felt a little sad. She still cared about the prince's affection with other women.
Once upon a time, she was as beautiful as a flower, had just married into the royal palace, and had enjoyed the happy years of loving marriage with the Prince of Yan. She naively thought that the two of them could love each other forever.
Unfortunately, time was merciless, she grew old and her beauty faded, and the King of Yan's heart was attracted by those new brides who were as beautiful as flowers. She tried hard to save the situation, but to no avail.
In the end, she was completely disappointed with King Yan and poured all her energy into her children.
