Chapter 19 His Majesty has ordered that no one is allowed to offend Prime Minister Song!
Her son was beaten and his reputation was affected. How could she swallow this?
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard the sound of hurried horse hooves coming from outside the car window, accompanied by a high-pitched male voice -
"Your Majesty has ordered that everyone in Prince Yi's Mansion must not offend Prime Minister Song and must retreat immediately!"
Concubine Yi tightened her grip on the Buddhist beads and quickly opened the carriage curtain. She saw the deputy commander of the Yulin Army, Shen Yue, sitting on a tall horse and shouting at everyone in Prince Yi's mansion, "Anyone who disobeys the order will be handed over to Lord Song to deal with at will!"
Everyone in Prince Yi's Mansion came to their senses and quickly dispersed, not daring to block the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion anymore.
Concubine Yi naturally couldn't sit still anymore, and was helped out of the carriage by her maid and came to Chen Yue.
"Sir Shen, Prime Minister Song injured Prince Yi, who is now lying on the bed in the palace. As his mother, can't I come to Prime Minister Song to argue? I didn't ask anyone to break into the Prime Minister's residence."
Chen Yue dismounted and saluted, then said expressionlessly: "Although the Concubine didn't order anyone to force their way in, you brought so many people with you, isn't that putting pressure on me? His Majesty asked me to bring you a message. He originally thought that Prime Minister Song was overbearing and wanted to punish him severely. Later, he learned that it was the prince who started the trouble, and he was deeply disappointed. Your Majesty can't be partial just because the prince is the emperor's uncle. It's really rude for you to block Prime Minister Song's door with everyone in the palace."
"Sir Shen, Prince Yi did not cause any trouble. Don't believe the rumors! He just..."
"Your Majesty has sent someone to find out."
Chen Yue interrupted Concubine Yi's defense, "The prince broke into Miss Jiang's residence without an invitation and was rude to Miss Jiang in front of Lord Song. This is a fact, and many people have seen it. If the Concubine must hold Lord Song accountable, it would be unfair. His Majesty respects you as an elder and cannot bear to blame you. Please don't embarrass His Majesty."
As Chen Yue spoke, the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion, which had been closed for a long time, opened.
Song Yunchu was wearing a moon-white brocade robe and walked slowly towards them with light steps.
She held an ebony water-ground folding fan in her hand and fanned herself slowly and leisurely.
"Your Majesty is indeed very observant! Lord Shen has worked hard."
Song Yunchu walked in front of Shen Yue and greeted him before turning to look at Concubine Yi.
"Your Highness, you must be tired after being stuck outside for so long. Why don't you go to the mansion and have a cup of tea?"
"No need." Concubine Yi smiled wryly, "Lord Song is really good at this. He is sitting at home, and it doesn't affect your ability to defend yourself. However, in just one day, you have spread many negative comments about Prince Yi's Mansion in the streets and alleys. I guess it must have cost a lot of money, right?"
"I don't understand what the Concubine said. Justice is in the hearts of the people. The prince entered Miss Jiang's territory as if he was entering his own courtyard. He was not polite at all. So many eyes were watching. The servants dare not say anything, but the truth is unbearable."
Song Yunchu said slowly, "Your Majesty asked the prince for his opinion before canceling his engagement with Rumin and granting the second lady the title of princess instead. The prince did not protest at the time, so why is he trying to pester Rumin now? Could it be that the prince is actually not satisfied with your Majesty's actions, but dares not speak out, so he pretends to obey but secretly disobeys?"
"Don't talk nonsense! He has no complaints about your Majesty's actions."
Concubine Yi was afraid that Song Yunchu would accuse Jun Tianyi of disrespecting the emperor, so she quickly explained, "He does like Miss Jiang Er, and is grateful to His Majesty for granting the marriage, but he and Rumin have known each other for a long time, and they have to end it. He wants to say goodbye in person, so what's wrong with that?"
"The Queen Mother and His Royal Highness Prince Yi are of one mind, so naturally they will speak for him. But now that His Majesty has made a ruling, our argument is meaningless. His Majesty respects you as an elder and will not punish you for your previous disrespectful behavior. Think carefully about whether you want to continue to stalemate with me."
Song Yunchu said lightly, glancing at everyone in the palace, "If you still insist on not giving in, then according to your majesty's order, I can deal with these guys who are blocking my way at will."
Concubine Yi almost crushed the Buddhist beads in her hand.
But she finally calmed down, said expressionlessly to everyone in Prince Yi's Mansion, "Go back home", and then turned and left without looking back.
Song Yunchu used the emperor's oral order to pressure her, so she had to evacuate first.
But this matter will never end like this!
When Song Yunchu saw that the dark group of people finally left, he turned to Chen Yue and said, "Your Majesty is wise and has helped me out. I will follow Lord Shen to the palace to express my gratitude."
When Song Yun first met Jun Li Luo, he was painting a landscape painting.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Jun Liluo put down the brush in his hand and said gently, "No need to be polite. This matter is indeed the fault of Prince Yi's Mansion. I should have punished the Concubine Dowager, but her generation is there, and the little uncle was indeed seriously injured. I thought about it and forgave her this time."
Song Yunchu smiled and said, "Your Majesty is wise. I am grateful to you for standing by my side."
"Of course I am on your side. Have you forgotten what I said? You and I are not only the ruler and the subject, but also friends. Looking at the whole court, you are the only one who can be my confidant."
Jun Liluo walked up to Song Yunchu and patted her shoulder gently. "Although the uncle and I are related by blood, the relationship is not as close as that between you and me. Even if his status is higher than yours, I will never allow him to offend you without reason."
Song Yunchu showed a touch of emotion on his face.
[Confidant, your sister! Confidant! ]
[The dog emperor must be enjoying the show, right? Seeing the rumors turn around and the wind direction is slightly in my favor, he helped me and confirmed my status as the emperor's favorite minister. ]
[The dog emperor looks warmer than anyone else, but in fact his heart is colder than anyone else. ]
[When one day you become strong enough and I am no longer useful, you will cross the river and burn the bridge, declaring to the outside world that you knew I was a traitor and chose to endure for a long time and wait for the right opportunity in order to catch all my accomplices in one fell swoop. People will not denounce you, but will praise you for how hard you have worked for the country, leaving me to bear countless insults.]
[If your brothers weren't all dead and you weren't such a jerk, I really wouldn't want to work for you. ]
"Your Majesty values me so much, I will do my best to be loyal to you in return." Song Yunchu said sincerely.
Jun Li Luo listened to her inner thoughts and saw her express her loyalty. While he found it funny, he also began to think.
Although Song Yunchu couldn't read minds, he really understood him.
In the past, Song Yunchu helped him to get to the top, and he promoted Song Yunchu to a first-rank official. As long as Song Yunchu did not act excessively, he could turn a blind eye. But later, this guy formed a clique for personal gain, framed his political enemies with all kinds of shady means, and did many evil things in private. How could he tolerate it?
However, after listening to Song Yunchu's inner voice these days, he realized that Song Yunchu had no intention of rebelling. This guy only wanted to maintain his current wealth and not end up in a dead end in the future.
If that were true, he wouldn't be the kind of person who would destroy his bridges after crossing them.
Now he is no longer afraid of Song Yunchu. Instead, Song Yunchu is wary of him. Even though he treats her well, she will only complain in her heart - the dog emperor is pretending again.
