Chapter 402 The Sixth Princess is a daughter of the Shen family
"Your Majesty, the Sixth Princess is actually a daughter of the Shen family!"
When Shen Zhao said this, Pang Qingyun's eyes widened.
The Sixth Princess is a daughter of the Shen family!
The guy surnamed Chu must be joking!
He is the emperor's close minister and confidant.
It was he who was accused of framing loyal officials and caused the Shen family father and son to be banished from the capital.
The Shen family father and son are the emperor's men.
Just now, the man surnamed Chu said that the Sixth Princess is not a daughter of the royal family. That means the Sixth Princess is not the emperor's blood relative, but an illegitimate daughter born by the fake concubine in the harem and someone else.
Now it is said that the Sixth Princess is a daughter of the Shen family.
boom!
Pang Qingyun had only one dangerous thought, that is, Old Shen was cheating on the emperor!
Pang Qingyun swallowed in horror. This was a royal scandal. How could he listen to it?
Although it is true that he is the emperor's confidant, this matter is too hurtful to the emperor's reputation.
Will the Emperor bear a grudge, will he...
I dare not think about it, I really dare not think about it!
Although the emperor is not a tyrant, he is a normal man!
Who can accept this!
He had no idea that the old emperor had long known that the Sixth Princess was not his daughter.
Pang Qingyun has been in self-fright.
He looked uneasily at Princess Zhong who was standing beside him.
Will His Majesty implicate the Shen family?
Chen Zhao is the person Jin'er holds dearest to her heart. If the emperor implicates Shen Zhao later, should I plead for her?
Pang Qingyun, who had no idea of Shen Zhao's true identity, was thinking with a conflicted look on his face.
His expression was very conflicted.
Ugh!
Is this the time to think about this? His Majesty still doesn't know the true relationship between him and that fake concubine in the harem.
He was also implicated.
Now that he knew about the scandal and was implicated, Pang Qingyun's political career came to an end.
Maybe my life has come to an end...
He is now in a situation where he is in a difficult situation and cannot even save himself.
No, I can't wait any longer, I have to tell the truth.
Pang Qingyun was about to speak when he was interrupted again.
But this time it was His Majesty who interrupted him.
The old emperor frowned and looked at Shen Zhao.
"Is the Sixth Princess really a daughter of the Shen family?"
Pang Qingyun desperately winked at Shen Zhao.
Shen is your wife. For her sake, you cannot tell the truth.
Chen Zhao listened to Pang Qingyun's inner thoughts and his eyes that were about to cramp, and gave him a comforting look.
Don't panic, it's okay, be good!
When Pang Qingyun saw Chen Zhao's gaze, he just wanted to curse!
The fire is on the fire, who can stay calm!
"Seriously!" These two short words made Pang Qingyun want to cry but had no tears.
[This Chu guy not only wants to change his wife, he also wants to kill the Shen family father and son.]
[If you dare to cheat on the emperor, he will probably have all the heads of his clan tied to his belt.]
Pang Qingyun, who had been in a state of tension from the beginning, completely forgot about the disgusting things the queen had done to win over the Shen father and son.
If the two of them were really an adulterous couple, why would the Queen frame the Shen father and son?
How could the emperor and his men take advantage of the situation and banish the Shen family father and son from Kyoto?
The old emperor suddenly thought of something.
He slammed the table in front of him.
"Bang."
The sound made Pang Qingyun's heart jump with fear.
It's over.
He made up his mind and prepared to go all out.
Even if he really has to be punished, he wants to die knowingly.
Disassociate yourself from the fake.
He cupped his hands and was about to speak when he heard the emperor's angry voice.
"No wonder, no wonder that bitch wanted to adopt the second daughter of the Shen family as her adopted daughter."
Pang Qingyun was shocked.
What does this have to do with that fake guy taking that idiot Chen Qianmeng as his adopted daughter?
Does the emperor suspect that the queen loves Shen Qianmeng because of her love for her?
But given the Queen's vicious temper, how could she tolerate Old Shen having a wife and daughter?
She wished she could kill Old Shen's wife and daughter.
How can you love someone and love everything about him?
However, this thought only appeared in my mind for a moment.
Pang Qingyun immediately denied this guess.
As if he had thought of something, a hint of shock flashed in his eyes.
The idea of replacing the child suddenly popped up in his mind. After all, his own sister had been replaced by someone.
The man surnamed Chu simply said that the Sixth Princess was not a daughter of the royal family but a daughter of the Shen family.
Maybe he misunderstood just now.
The Sixth Princess is indeed the daughter of the Shen family. She was the child replaced by the Queen to take the blame in order to protect that bastard.
This also made him figure out the confusion that had plagued him for many years.
Although His Majesty is not particularly fond of any of the princes and princesses, he is a good father. However, he is very cold to the Sixth Princess.
Perhaps the emperor had long known that the Sixth Princess was not his biological daughter, which was why he was so cold and heartless to her.
Pang Qingyun's heart was instantly relieved.
September's voice was heard again outside the door.
"Your Majesty, please save my princess. I am willing to die, just begging Your Majesty to save our princess' life."
The old emperor guessed everything. The sixth child was Shen Aiqing's biological daughter, and he, as the emperor, knew Zhao Zhao's feelings for the Shen family.
Whether for the sake of the Shen family father and son who were loyal to him outside, or for Zhao Zhao, he could not let anything happen to Lao Liu.
Otherwise, how can I face the loyal ministers and generals who serve me?
Immediately ordered:
"Prepare..."
What he wanted to say was the palace where the Sixth Princess was staying, but after thinking for a long time, he still couldn't remember which palace this neglected "daughter" of his lived in.
The chief steward on the side reminded him in time.
"Your Majesty, the Sixth Princess is a filial child. She has lived in the side hall of the Buddhist temple in the palace since she was a child, praying for Nan Chu and Your Majesty."
His Majesty did not allocate a palace for the Sixth Princess, and the Empress also tacitly agreed that the Sixth Princess should live in the side hall of the Buddhist temple.
One of them is the Sixth Princess's father, the emperor, and the other is the Sixth Princess's mother.
Even they didn't ask about the Sixth Princess's residence, so how could the other concubines ask?
They wished that the legitimate princess would have a hard time and not be favored by the emperor.
A hint of discomfort flashed in the old emperor's eyes.
When he thought Lao Liu was a bastard, he could unscrupulously ignore her existence and even be cold to her.
He knew how difficult life was in the palace for princesses and princes who were not favored by the emperor.
Now he knew that the sixth sister, whom he had always treated coldly, was the innocent girl from the Shen family who had suffered.
As an emperor, he couldn't help feeling a little guilty.
"Go to the Ten Thousand Buddha Hall."
The old emperor thought for a moment and then ordered:
"Prepare a sedan chair for Prince Zhong."
The old emperor was the first to leave the study.
The others immediately stood up and followed.
When everyone saw the palace maid kneeling outside Lu's study, their pupils shrank slightly.
The little palace maid's clothes were covered in blood stains, and from the torn marks on the clothes, one could tell at a glance that they were caused by being whipped.
Her messy hair stuck to her cheeks, which were swollen and black and purple.
His hands were in a horrible state, swollen and purple like steamed buns made of leavened dough, and even bleeding.
She ignored the injuries all over her body and kowtowed to everyone.
"Your Majesty, please save our mistress. She is dying."
"The maid the Empress sent to guard the master refused to let me call a doctor for her. Her wounds were festering, causing a high fever. When I escaped from the temple, she had already fainted and was near death..."
Jiu Yue's voice became more and more choked. Even though her cheeks hurt from speaking, she kept begging the emperor and everyone to save the Sixth Princess.
The old emperor's face turned pale and he said sternly:
"Immediately send someone to summon all the doctors on duty at the Imperial Hospital to the Hall of Ten Thousand Buddhas. I want to see which of these reckless slaves are committing treason."
The group followed the old emperor towards the Hall of Ten Thousand Buddhas.
