"Your Majesty, you have already said that the winners of this Mahjong competition will receive generous rewards. Madam Fanghua won the first prize of this Mahjong competition. I think Your Majesty should give her the due reward."
It was expected that Madam Yu was standing up for Madam Fanghua.
Because Liu Xian had already made it very clear, it was only a verbal commendation and no substantial reward was given.
"Madam Yu, then according to your opinion, how should I reward Fanghua?"
"Wan Bazi ranked second, but the gifts he received are enough to show your majesty's great grace. Fanghua ranked first, and as your majesty said, this was also due to the crown prince's contribution. The crown prince is very filial to his mother. If your majesty cannot treat him fairly, how disappointed the young crown prince will be, and he will fail the expectations of filial sons in the world."
Madam Yu directly pushed the prince out, and Liu Hui's reputation among his subjects all over the world rose to a high level.
If the prince's filial piety is not rewarded generously, then the people of the world will be disheartened.
"Okay, Madam Yu, I will consider your words..."
"Your Majesty, after all, this is our royal family's family affair, and it is all natural. I wonder if Your Majesty has anything else to consider?"
Madam Yu had no intention of backing down and continued to argue her case.
"Are you teaching me how to do things?"
"Do you also want to be disrespectful to me like you did in your youth..."
"I dare not, Your Majesty, please investigate!"
Madam Yu knelt on the ground.
Xing Bang could already sense that Madam Yu's behavior was definitely not accidental. Even if the two of them had colluded in advance, at least she should have tested Liu Xian's intentions, after all, the two of them went out for a trip in the middle of the trip.
After all, when the two of them went out, Madam Yu had already judged that Madam Fanghua would definitely get a better ranking.
It seems that Liu Xian really wants to release Madam Fanghua.
There's nothing wrong with it. At the beginning, he felt that his health was very poor, so he found a random reason to arrange for Madam Fanghua. Now the situation is different, so naturally his thoughts have changed.
"Okay, Madam Yu, get up and go back to your seat!"
Liu Xian waved his hand, implying that this matter should not be discussed anymore.
Liu Xian also revealed a lot of information in his words.
Madam Fanghua was originally charged with a false accusation, and even in the harem and the court, the case was vague and there was no concrete conclusion.
Liu Xian said that Madam Yu wanted to be as disrespectful as Madam Fanghua...
It seemed like a casual remark, but in fact it was secretly telling everyone that Madam Fanghua had not actually committed a serious crime.
Just like Madam Yu, just like a couple quarreling and bickering!
However, he is the emperor and it is impossible for him to admit his mistakes. He has the final say on whether someone is guilty or not, and it is only a matter of a word if he wants to pardon someone.
At this point, everyone present had basically made up their minds.
In other words, based on what Liu Xian said just now, if he wanted to punish Madam Yu and Madam Fanghua, he could just put them in the torture chamber and be done with it.
However, Liu Xian did not pursue Madam Yu...
He believes that there will be smart people!
After watching Liu Xian and Madam Yu go back and forth, Empress Xiao had already understood everything clearly.
She stood up and slowly walked to Madam Yu and knelt down.
"Your Majesty, I also think that what Madam Yu said is reasonable. Your Majesty should give Fanghua the reward she deserves!"
"Queen, why are you also...what do you mean?"
Liu Xian pretended to be cold, but he felt very comfortable in his heart. He felt that Empress Xiao seemed to have changed a lot. The most direct feeling was that she had restrained a lot of her dominance.
This is also the result she wants to see, and she hopes to achieve even greater success in the future!
"Your Majesty, I have been in charge of the harem for so many years, and I know Fanghua's character. Even if she is disrespectful to Your Majesty, I believe that she is loyal to Your Majesty and her words were a little extreme. Besides, she has been imprisoned in the torture chamber for so long to reflect on herself."
"I have received the punishment I deserve. I believe I can fully understand your majesty's painstaking efforts. I beg your majesty to forgive Fanghua for the sake of the crown prince!"
Hit the nail on the head.
Empress Xiao's move was very smart...
Anyway, Liu Xian already had this intention, and as the queen, it would be absolutely wise for her to go with the flow.
It can be said that he killed two birds with one stone, as he not only pleased Liu Xian but also did Madam Fanghua a huge favor.
As for what Liu Xian concluded in his mind, it doesn’t matter. The situation will not get worse anyway.
"What are you doing? Are you pointing fingers at me and saying I am heartless and disloyal?"
"Your Majesty, I am willing to vouch for Madam Fanghua. Please forgive her mistakes!"
Lady Gao saw that Liu Xian's words were insincere and understood everything. She took the lead and stepped forward to take advantage of the situation.
She was also a great finisher, directly calling her Madam Fanghua, but Liu Xian still did not forgive her.
However, no one would care about this. At most, it was just an unintentional mistake made in a hurry.
Immediately afterwards, the concubines knelt down one after another to plead for Madam Fanghua.
Several people of the highest positions have all pleaded for mercy. No matter how far they can think of it, the trend is clear and no one would be stupid enough to play dumb.
This should be the result Liu Xian wants to see.
"Father, I beg you to pardon Madam Fanghua!"
Liu Jing also knelt down and begged for mercy.
Finally, after Li Lizhi and Liu Hui also knelt on the ground, Liu Xian was the only one left sitting in his original position.
Xing Bang has already knelt down without saying a word. So many concubines have knelt down. If you, a slave, continue to pretend to be cool and stand there indifferent, wouldn't you be a big idiot?
The scene fell into a brief calm.
Liu Xiancai slowly spoke, "Prince, get up!"
"And you all, get up."
"Father, please agree..."
"Your son, I kowtow to you on behalf of my mother!"
Liu Hui kowtowed several times while choking.
A sincere heart, looking at it makes people sad and moved...
At this moment, Madam Fanghua was in tears and her heart was broken.
Also, Li Lizhi, who was beside Liu Hui, also felt the same way and her eyes were red.
"Father, Li Zhi has also kowtowed to you. The prince's head is about to be broken. Please fulfill the prince's filial piety!"
Indeed, there was no noise in the field, only the sound of Crown Prince Liu Hui's head hitting the ground...
Filial piety is so touching!
Liu Hui, who is still very young, will probably be praised by the world for this action.
Liu Xian really didn't expect Liu Hui to be so persistent. He already knew that his son was wise and filial, and at this moment he was even more relieved and moved.
After hearing what Li Lizhi said, I felt so heartbroken that I couldn't hold it in any longer.
He said in a loud voice: "Lizhi, help the prince up quickly. I agree."
