Chapter 25 Poisoning
It's scary, really scary.
Only Nangong Xue felt that something was wrong with this man. He must have been infected with some kind of cold poison.
It seems that this person has been tricked.
The leader of the secret guards quickly came before Emperor Nanyue with the so-called evidence.
After Emperor Nanyue read the evidence, he was so angry that he blew his beard and glared.
He smashed the paper in his hand.
"Second Prince, please explain to me what is going on."
"Your Majesty, what's going on? How could you treat my son like this? Can't you just talk about it calmly? You've even scared my son."
"Hmph! Shut up! Is this the good prince you taught? Look at what he has done."
The queen picked up the evidence and began to read it. After reading it, she was also a little bit unbelievable.
How could her son be so stupid? How could he leave evidence that could be discovered by others? Wasn't it just a matter of killing a few people?
Isn't it just giving the other party a few official positions and then collecting a little more taxes? Isn't it just having a few more women?
What's the big deal? What man doesn't have three wives and four concubines?
And as the queen's legitimate son, he has to raise an army, so what if he has a few people under him?
This guy really has someone backing him up, so he has nothing to fear.
It seems natural for him to be said to have committed all kinds of evil.
"Your Majesty, the prince is still young, and this must have been done by those people under his command without the prince's knowledge.
So let's find him a wife, take good care of him, and prevent him from associating with these people."
"I will also discipline him, Your Majesty, please rest assured."
"Um.
That's true, but I have to publish this today. After all, so many people have seen it. If I, the emperor, do nothing, won't everyone in the world curse me as a tyrant? "
The queen immediately interrupted.
"Your Majesty, then punish him by putting him in solitary confinement and making him copy the scriptures carefully, and pray for the blessings of the Majesty and the people of the world."
"Wait, you just said you wanted to find a wife for the second prince, who did you choose?
If the right person happens to be the one who issues the imperial decree at the same time, the two brothers might even get married one day. Wouldn't that be a wonderful story?"
"Your Majesty, I have chosen one principal wife and two concubines. Please help me examine them and see if they are suitable. If they are, please give your approval."
"Oh??? Which minister's daughter could win the Queen's favor?"
"Your Majesty, this is my niece, Song Xinran. How about making her your principal wife? Our two families are now even closer.
There is also Sun Xuefei, the daughter of the Minister of War, Yang Leyan, the daughter of the Prime Minister, and Xia Wanru, the daughter of the Right General of the Imperial Guards."
Dongfang Chen sneered in his heart. What a deep calculation. This is paving the way for the second prince.
She not only spared no civil or military generals, but also chose her niece from her mother's family as her principal wife. She was indeed a scheming woman, no wonder she could become the queen.
The emperor also knew it, but he didn't say anything. Anyway, as long as he was in power, he would be the emperor.
No matter who sits on that position, he is the emperor emeritus.
He would be happy to see the brothers fighting for this position.
To see who has better skills, he did not object and drafted the imperial edict and asked the eunuch to convey it.
Because Qin Yuyan contradicted the queen, she ended up not even becoming a concubine, but only a maid.
To put it nicely, a concubine is just a bed warmer and a servant who can be sold at any time.
Qin Yuyan suddenly collapsed to the ground. She was finished. Everything she had planned was over.
The Left General and Right General of the Imperial Guard, the Prime Minister's Office, and the Chancellery received the imperial edict at the same time.
And the matter is not over yet, and no one outside knows who spread the rumor.
The emperor deliberately favored the second prince and even turned a blind eye to the fact that he raised troops and killed people.
The second prince was extremely cruel and could even kill his own flesh and blood.
The young lady of the Shangshu Mansion was pregnant with his child, but because she was blocking other people's way, she had to have an abortion.
This rumor was so convincing that it could not be stopped. Even two or three-year-old children in the streets and alleys of the capital knew about it.
The emperor and the second prince smashed the teacups in their hands in anger. Damn it! It really is damn it. I don’t know who is targeting him.
He could probably guess who it was. Who else could it be except his good brothers?
I just don't know who has such great ability.
This is of course the work of Dongfang Chen, and also of Nangong Xue.
Of course, the news of the miscarriage was spread by Nangong Xue, and it was a very simple matter.
Because she has hypnotic powers! This thing can be very effective if used properly.
So when those people woke up, they had no idea what they had done.
Of course, Dongfang Chenshi knew more about Nangong Xue’s work than he did about her, but he didn’t know what method she used that was more effective than his.
It seems that his princess is becoming more and more interesting. He didn't expect that he would be able to marry her in just half a month.
He is particularly looking forward to it.
The Queen's bedroom, Fengyi Palace.
The queen sat in the main seat, with the second prince kneeling below her.
The Queen was really angry today. She never thought her son would do such a stupid thing.
Dongfang Qi: "Mother, please don't be angry. It was my fault for being careless today. They must have tricked me. I will pay more attention next time.
I don't know who is plotting against me, but when I catch him, I will tear him into pieces.
They even investigated this prince thoroughly. They are quite capable. They usually pretend to be dandy and straightforward.
"You really think I don't know."
The Queen was very disappointed with her. "Come on, how could you be so careless? You let someone catch you so easily.
If I hadn't been there to clean up your mess, what would you have done? Kneel down here and reflect on your actions."
"Also, you're going to marry a principal wife and a concubine in a month, so stop associating with Qin Yuyan.
If she hadn't seduced you, you wouldn't have lost face today.
It doesn't matter if the child is aborted, your eldest son must be born to your wife.
Besides, she behaves so recklessly, who knows whose bastard child she is pregnant with."
"Mother, I understand, and I will certainly follow your instructions.
We haven't gained nothing today, so what can Dongfang Chen do with all the military power he holds?"
"You're still marrying a useless fool," But... that fool is quite pretty. Why didn't I realize before that she is prettier than Qin Yuyan?
I shouldn’t have hooked up with Qin Yuyan, but this guy is really open-minded in bed.
The queen was almost furious. She talked for a long time, but her stupid son didn't listen to a word he said.
At midnight, Nangong Xue sneaked into the palace alone and searched the emperor's private treasury and the national treasury.
There are quite a lot of good things, I am very satisfied.
The next day at noon.
The capital city is really bustling. Some people are carrying things, wearing red clothes and playing music. It seems they are going to propose marriage.
There are quite a lot of these things. I wonder which young lady is so lucky.
Everyone followed the team to the Shangshu Mansion, and Qin Beimu ran out immediately.
When he saw these people, he knew they were here to propose marriage.
He smiled and greeted, "Hello, gentlemen. You have worked hard. Are you here to propose marriage?"
