"Madam, are you accusing Father of punishing Mother? Every country has its laws, and every family has its rules. I'll have you brought before Father and tell him what's happening. I'll see how many heads you have."
When the nanny put the hat of accusing the emperor on her, her face turned pale instantly.
"I was so concerned that I became confused and spoke without thinking. Please forgive me, Your Highness."
The nanny lowered her head, but was thinking about the prince's attitude.
The prince used to respect her very much, so she dared to say this.
"If nothing else, please leave!"
[This slave has been serving the Queen for a long time. She's been involved in many of the Queen's dirty deeds. It would be great if the Crown Prince could investigate her.]
Prince Qingjun frowned slightly and raised his hand to touch Yu Yiluo's little face.
I thought Luo'er was really a lucky star sent by God.
Fortunately, he brought Luo'er with him, otherwise I wouldn't know where to start investigating.
......
In the study, the prince ordered someone to burn charcoal and bring it in.
After sitting down, seeing that Lin Qi seemed to want to say something but hesitated, he asked lightly.
"What's wrong?"
Lin Qi was the emperor's confidant to the prince. He had always felt uncomfortable seeing Nanny Zhu acting tyrannically in the East Palace. When he heard these words today, he wanted to kill Nanny Zhu with a knife.
The queen found such a wet nurse for the prince and kept her by his side. I really don't know whether it was for the prince's own good or because she thought he was living too well.
"Your Highness," Lin Qi said without hiding anything, "A person like Madam Zhu who committed treason deserves death by beating with a stick."
[No, if you kill this slave, there will be no evidence. Although I hate this slave too.]
Yu Yiluo reached out and pulled the prince, but couldn't utter a word.
She put down her hands in frustration.
[I'm so angry, I'm speechless. I can't expose the Queen's hypocrisy.]
Seeing that the prince was silent for a long time, Lin Qi looked over. But he heard the prince say.
"It's not a pity for her to die, but she is still useful."
Suddenly remembering something, the prince continued, "How's the investigation going on for me?"
Lin Qi almost thought he had heard it wrong.
The prince actually said that it was not a pity for Nanny Zhu to die?
The prince was not like that when he talked about Nanny Zhu before.
Pulling his thoughts back, Lin Qi said respectfully, "Empress Lu did give birth to a stillborn baby, and the cause of death was also a difficult labor. There are records in the palace."
The prince looked out the window for a long time, his mind blank about Queen Lu.
I only occasionally heard from the palace maids that she was kind and treated the concubines and palace maids well, and was a good queen who was a model for the country.
......
The prince sent Yu Yiluo back to Concubine Li's palace.
The gift for her was not forgotten.
"Your Highness, what are you doing?"
Concubine Li was already surprised enough to see him send Yu Yiluo over, and now she gave him a box of jewelry, luminous pearls.
"Just consider it as a greeting gift from my royal brother to Luo'er."
[The Crown Prince is very wealthy and has given me too much. I really want to help him and tell him that Empress Lu is his mother.]
Yu Yiluo looked at the prince's departing back and sighed slightly in her heart.
Although Concubine Li knew a lot of secrets from her daughter, she was still surprised by this secret.
The third prince is not the emperor's child, and the crown prince is Queen Lu's child.
Should she tell the emperor the prince's background in a subtle way?
After the prince sent Yu Yiluo back, he went directly to the Queen's palace.
There were four guards guarding the gate of the Queen's Palace, and they did not stop the Prince when they saw him.
The emperor did not say that the prince was not allowed to see the queen.
The prince pushed the door open and saw the queen sitting on the couch, holding a straw figurine in her hand and making it seriously.
When she heard someone coming in, she didn't bother to look up and continued to tattoo.
"Mother."
The prince walked closer and saw clearly that Concubine Li's name was written on it.
The queen stopped the needle in mid-air as she was about to insert it, and looked up at the prince with some joy.
"Did your father agree to let me go?"
She stuffed the figurine in her hand under the pillow and said, "I knew you would save me, my prince."
The prince stared at her for a long moment, then said calmly, "I just came to see you and ask for your advice. Father didn't say he would let you go."
The Queen stood up suddenly and demanded, "Why didn't you let me go? Didn't you go and ask your father for help?"
The emperor values the prince. If the prince comes forward, how could he not let her go?
Sure enough, the children born to others are ungrateful and impossible to tame.
"You framed Concubine Li, and Doctor Xu was also executed by the Emperor. If I really go to plead for mercy, not only will it fail to save you, but it will also make the Emperor dislike me as well."
He paused and sat down on a chair beside him. "Are you not worried at all about your son getting into trouble? Or maybe your son is not your son?"
Upon hearing this, the queen covered her slightly trembling hands with her sleeves and pretended to be calm as she reprimanded.
"What nonsense! Who told you that?"
Everyone who knew about this was executed by her, and the only one left alive was Nanny Zhu.
This person is hers, he definitely won't talk nonsense.
"Some say I look like Empress Lu," the Crown Prince stood up and straightened his clothes. "That really sounds like nonsense."
Distracted by this incident, the queen completely forgot when she could go out and watched the prince leave.
Who is gossiping in front of the prince?
Now she is just imprisoned. If her identity as the prince is known to others, I am afraid no one will be able to save her.
......
After dinner.
The palace lanterns lit up, and the queen, who continued to make paper dolls, welcomed the emperor she had been longing for.
Hearing the noise, she thought it was the palace maid Lanzhi, and without even looking up, she said, "Go down and rest. I don't need you here."
After she finished speaking, she heard a sneer. The familiar voice made her tremble, and she raised her eyes to meet the emperor's cold face.
She subconsciously hid the little figure in her hand behind her back, but it was full of needles and accidentally pricked her hand.
"Why don't you continue?"
"Your Majesty, I am honored to meet you. I wonder what you are talking about." She maintained her smile and hid the little man in her sleeve.
"Isn't it in your sleeve?" The emperor sat on the chair and raised his eyebrows. "Take it out. I'll watch you put it on."
Yu Yiluo laughed out loud like a goose.
[Hahaha, I don't know which unlucky guy the queen stabbed, so I'm guessing it was the tyrant.]
The emperor's face darkened, and he wondered if he was the unlucky one. He signaled Eunuch Cao to take the figurine from the queen's hand.
Eunuch Cao smiled and said, "I'm sorry," then snatched the little man away and handed him to the emperor with both hands.
Looking at the little man with needles all over his body, Yu Yiluo cursed in her heart.
[Oh my god, it seems the Queen has been relying on this villain to pass the time while imprisoned. How hateful!]
After seeing the words on the figurine clearly, Yu Yiluo's face drooped.
[How shameless of you to stab my beautiful mother! It's a sin, a sin. It was just a slip of the tongue.]
The emperor drew a black line across his forehead and handed the figurine in his hand to Eunuch Cao.
Then he looked at the Queen and said in a deep voice, "How are you going to explain this villain this time? Do you need me to find an excuse for you?"
The queen knelt on the ground, grabbed the emperor's robe and cried out that she was innocent.
