Seeing that his little darling was so upset again, Zhao Ying glanced at Shangguan Shu and roared, "If you mention daddy again!"
Shangguan Shu, like a bullied wife, quickly said, "Don't mention it!"
Zhao Ying was so annoyed with Shangguan Shu that she quickly took the child in her arms and got into the sedan chair, then left without looking back.
The culprit was left standing there alone.
The next morning, the whole court was shocked!
With the Xianwang Mansion as the axis and the imperial palace as the radius, a huge "storm" was set off, which was later called the "Flower and Willow Gate".
It turned out that the singing of the five girls not only shocked everyone and stunned the virtuous princess, but also attracted the guests of the virtuous prince's mansion. Now, the scandal could no longer be concealed.
The Zhou family, the Shangguan family, the Wang family, the Xianwang family, the Dingguogong family, and even Emperor Jianxi himself were all implicated.
Several parties involved were too embarrassed to go to court, and only Emperor Jianxi was blamed. He was in the palace and was the last to know about it.
Emperor Jianxi went to court and looked at the few people below, so he asked where everyone had gone... The officials laughed secretly, but did not dare to tell him directly, so they could only look at Shangguan Shu.
Shangguan Shu had anticipated this and wrote down the whole story in a memorial before submitting it.
When Emperor Jianxi first read the memorial, his expression looked quite good, until... he slammed the memorial shut, waved his hand, and left the court.
He couldn't stay in this throne room for even a second.
The situation of the other companies is worse than the other.
When all the officials first learned about Lord Wang's family scandal, no matter whether they were civil or military, the upright civil officials used sharp and spicy words for fear of not attracting attention, and the military officials used their toes to hold the pen, and they all had to record it. It was really lively.
Zhou Ji knew that Zhou Wangshi had cheated on him, and he was furious and wanted to hit her, but he was beaten by the fierce Zhou Wangshi instead...
Shangguan Zhu and Shen Shi got along well with each other, and no more troubles were reported. However, the steward Qian of the Duke's Mansion got to know about this big gossip, especially since it involved Duke Ding. Steward Qian sent an urgent letter over 800 miles to the old Duke who was far away in Putuo Mountain.
The old Duke never forgot the fact that his concubine had cheated on him. He had been laughed at by his old companions for many days. Now he had finally caught Duke Ding and Lord Wang in their scandal. He stamped his feet in regret while holding the letter, hating himself for not staying in the capital and enjoying the first bite of the fresh and hot melon. After a while, he mounted his horse and was on his way back to the capital.
Zhao Ying was summoned to the Yangxin Palace. Upon entering, Emperor Jianxi was lying on a couch with a white silk covering his forehead. Wu Yonggui was trying to persuade him, but Emperor Jianxi was wailing, "Oh... This is so embarrassing... I have no face to see anyone..."
"I won't go to court anymore. I don't want to go to court anymore..."
Zhao Ying led Shangguan Qingyue over and advised, "Father, you are the emperor..."
Shangguan Qingyue stomped onto the couch, "Yes, Grandfather, you are the emperor, how can you not attend court?"
Emperor Jianxi snorted and sat up suddenly, startling Shangguan Qingyue. He leaned over and said, "Ouch..."
Emperor Jianxi supported himself with his hand, then gritted his teeth and said, "I will personally kill that bitch Concubine Fei! And Concubine Xian, I want them both dead!"
As he was about to stand up, Zhao Ying and Wu Yonggui hurried to stop him.
Wu Yonggui: "Your Majesty, please don't get angry, it will hurt your body..."
Zhao Ying held Emperor Jianxi's arm and advised, "Father, please calm down."
"How can I calm down?"
What a great person is missing!
What's even more infuriating is that no one told him in advance, so he didn't even have a chance to hide and had to face the scandal head-on...
Zhao Ying sighed and thought to himself, what a waste of time.
Zhao Ying thought for a moment and said, "Father, I have something to tell you. It won't be too late to deal with those people after you have finished listening."
Emperor Jianxi was stunned when he heard this. Is there... something else?
Zhao Ying used her eyes to tell Emperor Jianxi that there are many things you don't know...
Emperor Jianxi was the emperor after all, so he suppressed his emotions easily. He sat down, took a deep breath, and said weakly, "Speak."
Just as Zhao Ying was about to speak, Shangguan Qingyue was already blinking and muttering to himself, "Ah, this little thing has made the Emperor so angry. If he knew that Concubine Xiaofei also contracted syphilis from Concubine Xian... he would probably die of rage, right?"
Zhao Ying looked helplessly at the little guy on the bed, but she still couldn't hide it...
Hmm—
Emperor Jianxi stared with his eyes wide open, and suddenly felt a pain in his chest.
My hands were shaking uncontrollably.
Hualiu?
Hualiu?
Emperor Jianxi was immediately filled with rage and he gritted his teeth, determined to torture Concubine Xiaofei to death!
Not only did she fail to steal someone's love, she also contracted this filthy disease!
Seeing that Emperor Jianxi's expression was getting uglier and uglier, Zhao Ying couldn't help but remind him, "Father, it's Concubine Xiao Fei, not Concubine Fei."
There were two Fei concubines in the palace. Little Fei concubine was Fei concubine's younger sister. When Fei concubine passed away, Fei concubine's mother's family sent Little Fei concubine into the palace. When Little Fei concubine entered the palace, Queen Hyomin had been "gone" for five years.
Since the death of Empress Xiaomin, Emperor Jianxi destroyed all his concubines and never favored his concubines again, so Concubine Xiaofei stayed in the empty room for five years.
Emperor Jianxi never touched her, so even if Concubine Fei had syphilis, it would not be passed on to Emperor Jianxi.
After being reminded by Zhao Ying, Emperor Jianxi suddenly remembered the matter and then breathed a sigh of relief. To be on the safe side, he still called the imperial physician. The result was obvious, Emperor Jianxi was fine.
Emperor Jianxi was glad that he listened to Xiaomin's words and did not favor anyone else. Xiaomin was right, this kind of thing was indeed dangerous...
Zhao Ying and Shangguan Qingyue also breathed a sigh of relief.
[Great! The Emperor's grandfather is fine...]
