Chapter 329: This is also for your own good
In the Wenhua Hall, the emperor irritably swept away the memorials in front of him.
Why is there always endless official business to deal with every day?
Are those people below garbage?
Even trivial matters have to be handed over to him. Wouldn't those old guys in the cabinet handle such trivial matters themselves? !
The more he thought about it, the more frustrated he became. He swept the memorials on the table to the ground with his big hands.
"Where's Fu Hai?"
There was no sign of Eunuch Fu in his sight, and he glanced at the eunuch at the door with a cold tone.
The young eunuch knelt on the ground with a thud and said, "Your Majesty, Eunuch Fu is waiting outside the palace."
"Let him roll in!"
Why weren't you afraid when I mentioned him just now?
When Fu Hai heard the noise, he hurriedly trotted in from outside the hall, leaning forward.
"His Majesty!"
His spineless legs went limp and he knelt on the ground, causing the emperor to glare at him angrily.
"Did you just go to Changchun Palace?"
"Yes, I just took the initiative to go to Changchun Palace and ask the Empress to save Princess Wei."
Knowing that he couldn't hide this from the emperor, Fu Hai explained it very straightforwardly.
The emperor angrily slammed the table and grabbed the paper and threw it at him, "Who do you think you are? How dare you make your own decision?"
It would have been fine if he had just acted on his own, but he actually went to the Empress for help.
Who allowed the empress to leave the palace?
The queen ran to save the two sisters of the Lu family, so how could the result he wanted to see happen again!
"A guy who is good at making trouble but not good at doing it!"
The paperweight hit Fu Hai's forehead, leaving a bloody hole.
Half of his face was covered in blood and he felt a little dizzy, but he didn't dare to raise his hand to wipe it off.
"Old slave, I'm afraid it will be too late. The system will be completely broken and no one will have any secrets."
He didn't believe that the emperor really dared to bet that his immoral deeds would be known to the whole world.
The emperor snorted coldly. Although he felt that her words made some sense, he still said, "I don't believe the nonsense of that system! I only believe my own eyes."
"Yes, Your Majesty is wise, but I am useless. I am afraid."
He said this with all the sincerity and heart, enduring humiliation and bearing heavy burdens all for the good of the emperor. Although the emperor was a little angry, he felt more inexplicably satisfied.
He was in a rare better mood. He looked at Fu Hai with blood all over his face and turned away in disgust. "Next time you act on your own, I will punish you with fifty strokes of the cane. Go and apply medicine."
"Yes, thank you, Your Majesty."
Fu Hai hurriedly got up from the ground, retreated outside the palace with a dizzy head, and casually called a young eunuch to go to the imperial physician's office to call the imperial physician.
After venting his anger to Eunuch Fu, the emperor felt a little better.
He ordered his men to pick up the memorials on the ground and put them in order. He picked up one at random and opened it.
His eyes were fixed on the memorial, but his mind had already drifted to the Empress.
It has been more than an hour since the empress left the palace. No matter what the situation was in Ruyi Tower, everyone should have been rescued.
Why haven’t you come back yet?
The Queen's transformation over the past year always made him feel like he was losing control.
He felt uneasy, and then angry.
Who the Queen and the Zhang family are? How could they make him feel uneasy?
"Go, order someone to bring the queen back from outside the palace!"
She left the palace without permission, and he would think carefully about how to punish her when the queen returned.
The empress stayed in the Duke's Mansion for only half an hour before she mounted her horse and returned to the palace under the watchful eyes of the eunuch sent by the emperor.
In the Changchun Palace, the emperor was sitting on the main throne with a majestic appearance. When he saw the empress approaching in military uniform, his eyes were instantly filled with disgust.
"Have I ever told you that you shouldn't wear this dress anymore after you get married?"
The queen lowered her head and rolled her eyes, knowing that he had come with ill intentions and not wanting to have any more conflict with him. She gave the palace maid a look and waited for everyone to leave. Then she found a chair and sat down.
"I am leaving the palace today for your majesty's sake."
"What a joke! Why do I need you to think about me?"
"Your Majesty has been summoning the imperial physicians for consultations every day. If something really happens to the Princess of Wei, then everyone in the world will know about it. If Your Majesty doesn't report it, then everyone in the country will know about it. How can the royal family maintain its dignity then?"
The Queen spoke righteously, looking at the Emperor with a look that was full of "this is for your own good".
The emperor had a mouthful of blood stuck in his throat. The two words he hated to hear the most these days were "impotence"!
This bitch!
Knowing clearly that he cannot bear to hear these two words, yet still deliberately provoking him!
"Your Majesty, the person who trapped Princess Wei today has a very suspicious background. I think we should capture him as soon as possible."
Not giving the emperor a chance to get angry, she changed the subject and turned to Yunsong.
The emperor suppressed his anger and asked through gritted teeth, "Why is it suspicious? Do you know the identity of that person?"
"Well, but this person appeared as a servant, and his identity was hidden very well."
Knowing that the two sisters had complicated feelings towards the Yun family, the Queen changed the subject again and talked about Yunsong's manipulation of the imperial examination.
"Your Majesty, you personally set the exam questions for each subject, and sealed them in a box. Only on the day of the exam did the chief examiner take them out in public, unseal them and take out the questions. But how did this person... know the exam questions in advance and let someone who joined his literary club get the questions?"
The emperor frowned and changed his expression. He had heard about the leak of imperial examination questions from Lu Xinran's inner voice before.
But there were not many people involved that time, and he also wanted to protect the people, so he did not investigate the matter thoroughly.
At this time, when he heard the Queen mention the last imperial examination again and saw the Queen's hesitant look, he already had a bad feeling in his heart.
As expected, the empress saw that he was suspicious and said again: "This literary society has already played an important role in the capital. Many young people in the families of officials in the capital are honored to be able to join this literary society.
"Moreover, there are also some officials who have joined this literary society. It is said that many of them are waiting for tomorrow's spring examination questions.
"Your Majesty, do you think this man is planning something by pulling so many officials from the court?"
emperor:"……"
He already regretted not sending someone to look after Lu Xinran.
His secret guard leader could hear Lu Xinran's thoughts.
If he had sent someone over today, he wouldn't have to listen to the Queen speaking to him in such an uneasy tone.
"Has the Princess of Wei been rescued and sent back to the palace?"
"Send her back. She had a big shock today. I'm afraid she needs to be carefully taken care of for a few days."
The emperor did not hear a word the empress said. He stood up and strode out of Changchun Palace.
He had more important and urgent things to deal with, so he had no time to deal with the queen.
"Go, tell the King of Wei and the Queen of Wei to come see me."
Eunuch Fu took the order, muttered to himself, and hurriedly arranged for people to go to Prince Wei's Palace.
