Outside the door, a maid suddenly cried out, "Empress Dowager, Princess Fengyi is missing. We have searched for a long time and found pieces of Princess Fengyi's clothes on the edge of the cliff. The princess may have fallen off the cliff and died..."
Before she could finish her words, the maid saw Su Chenyu and Aunt Xu standing in front of her. She was so frightened that her heart almost stopped beating: "Ghost!"
Madam Xu stepped forward and slapped the maid who reported the news twice: "Are you awake? This is a sacred place. What nonsense are you talking about here? Do you take the gods and Buddhas in this temple seriously?"
The maid was terrified, and she trembled as she revealed many things: "Impossible, I saw you fall with my own eyes."
As she spoke, the maid looked at Madam Du again, and saw that Madam Du also had an expression of seeing a ghost, as if she had found an ally: "Look, Madam Du was also scared."
Hearing this, Emperor Jing of Wei could not help but say: "Madame Du has harmed the heir to the throne and attempted to murder Princess Fengyi. Take her away and execute her."
The Queen Mother quickly stopped him: "Your Majesty, this is all one-sided words from this palace maid. How can you kill Madam Du just because of a few words from her?"
"Queen Dowager, in your eyes, everyone is wronged and no one deserves to die, right?" Emperor Jing of Wei's face darkened.
The Queen Mother was stunned for a moment. She guessed that Emperor Jing of Wei might have been listening outside.
Emperor Wei Jing was not satisfied with his treatment of Song Qingxuan, as he thought that Song Qingxuan's absence had offended him.
But just now, Emperor Jing of Wei could no longer bear it. It was related to the fate of Dayu, and Emperor Jing of Wei could not turn a blind eye to it just to save her face.
"Your Majesty, I am doing this for your own good." At the critical moment, the Queen Mother played the kinship card, "You are my only son, my own son. How can I not make plans for you?"
"So the Queen Mother wants to protect my concubine who has an affair with a man outside her family?" No man can tolerate wearing a green hat on his head. He did not show up just now, mostly because he did not want to embarrass himself in front of so many people.
If the concubines in the harem had an affair with a man outside their home, others would definitely be suspicious of him as the emperor.
The Queen Mother hesitated: "Your Majesty, Song Qingxuan is not that kind of person."
"Queen Mother, it doesn't matter what kind of person she is. What matters is what she did." Emperor Jing of Wei mocked, "You don't understand my thoughts, but you know that concubine who has only been in the palace for a few months well enough!"
Hearing the dissatisfaction of Emperor Jing of Wei, the Queen Mother did not dare to intervene in these matters anymore: "The Emperor has made up his mind, which makes me look like I am meddling in other people's business. If that is not the case, I will just sit by and watch."
The Queen Mother said this in order to save her last bit of face.
"Let's not talk about Kongnian's matter anymore." Emperor Jing of Wei called Song Qingxuan Kongnian to remind the people present that there would be no such person as Song Qingxuan in this world from now on, only the nun Kongnian from Jizhao Temple.
In this way, the matter can be concealed from the eyes of the world.
Su Chenyu saw through Emperor Wei Jing's thoughts, a slight smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and there was coldness in her eyes. When did the royal family become a place for filth and corruption?
Emperor Jing of Wei glanced at Su Chenyu and said, "Last night, when Fengyi asked me for help, I still didn't believe that this servant, Madam Du, was so bold as to harm a princess. But today, I can no longer help but believe it."
The Queen Mother could not help but tighten her sleeves. When Emperor Jing of Wei saw the Queen Mother's little action, disdain flashed in his eyes: "Why don't you take this slave who murdered his master away?"
Muyuan was anxious. How could Madam Du dare to attack Su Chenyu alone? There must be someone behind her, and that person must be the Queen Mother.
But the emperor didn't even ask, so how could we not investigate this matter further?
When Muyuan wanted to ask the emperor to continue the investigation, Su Chenyu saw that Muyuan was about to ask Emperor Jing of Wei, and immediately interrupted him, "Father, there are priorities. The defense map is related to the survival of Dayu. You should ask the Crown Princess first. There is no need to rush about your son's affairs."
