Chapter 785 The Emperor is Cheating (Twenty-three)
Concubine Yu wanted to find out, and Gu Qingcheng also wanted to pass the news to her deliberately.
Therefore, Coral, who was not familiar with the business of "buying intelligence", was able to obtain the information very smoothly.
After returning to Baiji Palace, Shanhu's face looked a little bad, with obvious panic in her eyes.
My steps are a little unsteady when I walk.
Seeing Shanhu's appearance, Concubine Yu's heart sank.
"Something happened?"
Was my uncle really caned by Min Huang in court?
Although soon, Min Huang would come and take the initiative to explain to her——
"Although I have been in power for several months, the court is still waiting and watching."
"Especially some of the important officials of the previous emperor, they are even more arrogant and do not take me seriously at all."
"...Jiaojiao, I want to establish my authority. I want everyone to know that I am no longer a puppet who can only obey the Queen Mother's arrangements, but the true emperor of the Great Jing Dynasty."
"Looking at the entire court, only the Yu family is the most trusted minister to me. I also know that only the Yu family is the most loyal to me."
In the "dream", Concubine Yu was directly moved when she heard Min Huang's sincere and heartfelt words.
She nodded repeatedly, "Of course! The Yu family is the most loyal!"
Concubine Yu was very convinced of the Yu family's loyalty and was very proud of it.
The Yu family has been in the army for decades, and the men for three or four generations have fought on the battlefield in the northwest.
The Yu family has been loyal for generations.
He was originally a loyal minister, and now with the addition of Yu Jiaojiao, the Yu family will only be more loyal! Of course, a proud (low EQ?) Concubine Yu would not say such words.
After all, she grew up in the palace. As a top noble lady in the capital, she still has some "common sense".
Although the Yu family was indeed doubly loyal to Min Huang because of Concubine Yu.
But such words must never be spoken.
The Yu family is a loyal and sincere family. Their loyalty comes from their instinct as subjects, not from any personal grudges.
...After hearing what Concubine Yu said, Min Huang was "touched".
He held Concubine Yu's hand tightly and nodded repeatedly, "I know! I know everything!"
"I chose my second uncle because I know the loyalty of the Yu family."
As he spoke, Min Huang looked at Concubine Yu with affectionate eyes.
Min Huang's appearance is really outstanding.
Well, first of all, he is the male protagonist, so naturally he has to be handsome and charming.
Secondly, the late emperor had a good appearance, and Concubine Xie must have been very beautiful, as she was favored by the late emperor despite her humble status as a palace maid.
Maybe neither of them has the most handsome face, but they can't stand up to President Min Huang.
He perfectly inherited the excellent genes of his parents, and accurately avoided the defects of both sides, achieving both high looks and high IQ!
"Because I know that even if I beat my second uncle, he won't bear a grudge against me."
"And Jiaojiao, you will also believe me. I did this just to establish my authority and intimidate the ministers, not because I have any objection to my second uncle!"
Min Huang seemed very anxious, and even forgot to call himself "I" when he spoke.
In the eyes of Concubine Yu, his behavior meant that Min Huang treated her as his own.
If she hadn't had that dream, Concubine Yu would even be secretly proud of herself.
Gu, so what if you are the queen?
Your Majesty's heart belongs to me, Yu Jiaojiao! Gu Qingcheng: ... Uh, what do I need the heart of a dog emperor for? It is as poisonous as a wolf's heart. You have to be careful of poisoning when you fry it.
Concubine Yu: ...
Well, Gu Qingcheng is not Min Huang. She cannot hear Concubine Yu’s thoughts, so naturally she won’t complain.
Concubine Yu continued to recall the scene in her dream -
As stupid as she was, she easily believed what Min Huang said and was very moved.
When she went to the general's mansion to visit her second uncle, she saw that her second uncle looked depressed, and she took the initiative to speak up for Min Huang.
"Is that really what Your Majesty said?"
After hearing Concubine Yu's slightly embellished (exaggerated?) explanation, Yu Heng felt better.
Really, in the court, I did nothing wrong, but Min Huang got angry with me and dragged me away and beat me with twenty sticks.
Twenty strokes of the cane are actually nothing for a soldier.
When he was young, he was beaten with military sticks many times.
But the caning in court is different.
The sense of spiritual shame is far greater than that of physical shame.
Shameful!
It's so embarrassing!
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
The Yu family has always been prosperous and wealthy.
In the capital, they are definitely a powerful family.
As a result, he, General Yu, was dragged out and beaten with a stick.
Alas, while being tortured, Yu Heng wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into several times.
He didn't think of pretending to faint, because that would be even more embarrassing.
If a military commander couldn't even withstand twenty strokes of the cane, and fainted at the slightest provocation like those weak scholars, Yu Heng would be even more ashamed to face others.
Covering his face and sticking out his butt, Yu Heng was carried back to the general's mansion limp and listless, like a dragon with its bones and muscles pulled out.
As soon as he entered the room, Concubine Yu came in.
Not only did he bring the "truth" about Yu Heng being beaten, but he also brought many things rewarded by the emperor.
Seeing the rewards of gold, silver, cloth, medicinal herbs, etc., the anger that had been half subsided by Concubine Yu's persuasion completely dissipated -
Your Majesty is thoughtful! These rewards are indeed worth some money, but what is more important is the meaning behind them.
The emperor did not dislike the Yu family, nor did he deliberately target them.
Maybe, he really just chose someone he trusted, killed a chicken to scare the monkey, and took the opportunity to establish his authority.
"…To establish authority? Haha, why am I so stupid? I actually believed these nonsense?"
It was obvious that they were already wary of the Yu family, and Yu Heng's beating in court was just the beginning.
Next, Min Huang will continue to attack the Yu family, whom he "trusts the most", either by killing the chicken to scare the monkey, or by killing relatives for the sake of justice...
Anyway, in less than two years, the Yu family's influence in the capital was almost completely reduced.
Even the military was affected by Min Huang.
"Blame me! It's all my fault!"
"How could I have believed Min Huang so easily? He said he wanted to train the royal family members, so I obediently wrote a letter to my father and asked him to accept those 'noblemen' sent from the capital."
"The result is that they let the wolf in! They couldn't take away my father's military power, so they secretly colluded with the barbarians."
"First, he caused my father's defeat, and then he accused him of betraying his country!"
"...Poor Yu family, all 103 of us were slaughtered."
After losing her father and brother, Concubine Yu was also framed. Shanhu died as a witness, but it only saved Concubine Yu from the death penalty.
Her Baiji Palace was sealed and became a well-known cold palace.
She was humiliated in this "cold palace" and was eventually poisoned to death.
"No! That was not a dream! It was my stupid and miserable past life!"
"God has mercy on me. He must have felt that I, Yu, was wronged, so he allowed me to be reborn after death!"
"...I will not let down this opportunity from God! Min Huang! I will make you pay for your blood debt with blood!"
