Chapter 254: Men are only honest when they are hanging on the wall
His Majesty never imagined that two originally good women would one day have such a quarrel.
Weren't they fine before?
A dignified and generous woman who can manage the harem for him. The peace in the harem is mostly due to the queen. To him, she is a good queen, a queen that makes him feel at ease.
A cute and lovely girl with a lively personality. Even though she has a little temper and uses some tricks, it is just to attract his attention. Every time she looks at him, there are stars in her eyes.
How could he not love such a Concubine Ning?
Although these two people usually have some calculations, they are all harmless behaviors. Moreover, they both know very well that he cannot lose any of them, and they also know very well how to maintain the current peace.
But now, they actually?
What’s even more abominable is that this brat actually refused to help?
Okay, okay, one by one, are you all going to force him? Then he will do it for them to see.
The emperor pushed aside the two people on his left and right, stood on the high steps, and looked down at them.
"One of you said you wanted justice for the prince, and the other said you were wrongly accused and wanted to clear your name."
"In that case, then we can just summon the Crown Prince and ask him about it."
Queen Feng was stunned and looked at the emperor in disbelief.
"The Crown Prince has a high fever. Your Majesty, do you still want to let the Crown Prince come here in such a sick state?"
The emperor's eyes darkened. "Queen Nayi's intention is to have you, Concubine Ning, and I personally go to the Crown Prince's residence."
Queen Feng was so frightened that she immediately shook her head, "Of course not. We are of noble status, and His Majesty is very busy. Why would he leave for such a small matter? I am just, I am just worried about Ji'er."
The Emperor snorted coldly, "It's good that you know." He slowed his tone again, "Besides, the Crown Prince has a high fever, how can the few doctors in the Crown Prince's Mansion treat him? It would be better to have him come to the palace and let Doctor Zhang take a look in person."
"Your Majesty?"
After hearing this, Queen Feng felt warm and touched again.
Doctor Zhang is the imperial physician who specializes in treating the emperor. He will not treat anyone else's illness unless the emperor asks him to do so.
Doctor Zhang's medical skills can be said to be the best in the entire Daqi Kingdom. It would be great to have him treat the prince.
The emperor sighed, "Queen, that's your son, and also my son. You love him, but don't I love him too?"
When Queen Feng heard this, she was moved to tears again, and the way she looked at the Emperor was almost tearing.
“Tsk.”
“Tsk.”
Two voices that only I could hear rang out quietly.
Concubine Ning looked at Ji Chenchuan with great surprise and shock.
Ji Chenchuan raised his eyebrows but didn't say anything, but surprisingly, the two of them seemed to understand what each other meant.
Concubine Ning curled her lips and smiled. This Prince Ji is indeed a wonderful person.
Like her, he could see the affection between the emperor and the queen.
But in her eyes, all the talk of love and affection was fake. Everything was driven by profit. If His Majesty truly cared about the Crown Prince, why would he have sent him to the palace? Wouldn't it have been better to have Imperial Physician Zhang go down to the Crown Prince's residence and treat him?
Humph, it’s this queen who can’t see clearly. Does she really think that the emperor likes her so much?
Ji Chenchuan stood there quietly, without saying a word or commenting, just staring at them.
If I really have to say something, there is only one thing: men are only honest when they are hanging on the wall.
Except him.
Concubine Ning couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so she twisted her waist and moved forward, and with her shoulder she pushed the empress away from the emperor's arms.
She choked up her voice, "Your Majesty, don't you love me anymore? I'm jealous of you. Queen, you're already the Queen. You shouldn't compete with me for your Majesty's favor anymore, okay?"
"you?"
When Empress Feng heard this, her face turned blue with anger, but if she was asked to push Concubine Ning away, she was afraid she couldn't do it because she was not as thick-skinned as Concubine Ning, and as a member of the Feng family, she couldn't act like a spoiled child in public.
Your Majesty, the joy in his eyes could not be hidden.
Ji Chenchuan sighed again. Two women fighting for one man? Isn't that really cool? Oh, scumbag.
Crown Prince Zong Yuanji came over.
The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became more intense.
Concubine Ning didn't say anything and started to criticize the prince.
"Prince, you must tell me the truth. Did I push you into this? Or did you do it to frame me?"
"Your Majesty is here, please don't lie."
"Also, where's that guard named Li beside you? Why is he gone? Was he dealt with by you or the Empress?"
"Hahaha, I knew it, I knew you couldn't tolerate me."
"Your Majesty, please let me out of the palace. I can't live like this any longer."
Everyone was stunned when they saw this.
Is this still the same harsh-tongued imperial concubine? Is this still the high-and-mighty empress? Why is she acting like a shrew now?
Queen Feng was so angry that her face turned black.
The prince was also shocked and stood there in a daze.
"That's not the case, Father. I don't have that, your son, your son..."
Zong Yuanji secretly looked at Queen Feng on the side, but only when he saw Queen Feng nod did he feel relieved.
In other words, the guard Li who instigated him is already dead and there is no evidence to prove his wrongdoing. So what is the truth? Can't he say whatever he wants?
Zong Yuanji thought he was clever and exaggerated what he said.
"It was Concubine Ning who pushed me into this. I don't know how I offended her to the point of her poisoning me like this."
"Everyone in the Lin Mansion saw it. If the emperor doesn't believe it, he can summon Lin Zhi to come and ask him. And Lord Xiao Yuan can also testify on my son's behalf."
"Father, I know you dote on Consort Ning, so I didn't complain to you right away. Originally, this matter had come to light, so I could just brush it off."
"But who would have thought that Concubine Ning would actually bite back at me."
When he got excited, Zong Yuanji coughed violently a few times, covering his chest and gasping for breath.
When Queen Feng saw this, she rushed to him with heartache, calling out "son, son", what a picture of deep love between mother and son.
But they didn't notice that the emperor's expression had changed in secret.
He knew exactly what was going on.
Perhaps because she was too engrossed in watching, Concubine Ning didn't even notice the change in the emperor's expression.
Yes, Concubine Ning is actually the same as the queen. She only cares about her son and whether her son can sit on the throne.
"You are talking nonsense, Your Majesty, you must make the decision for me. No matter how foolish I am, I will never attack the Crown Prince in front of everyone."
"As for Lin Zhi and that Xiao Yuan, they are all the prince's men, so they naturally have to speak for the prince."
"Empress, Crown Prince, I still have the same question. Do you dare to let that guard surnamed Li come out?"
