Although the edict left by the late emperor saved King Jing's life.
However, Gu Chengzuo issued an order to abolish King Jing's throne, demote him to a commoner, and imprison him in the palace for life without being allowed to leave.
Concubine Jing closed her eyes. This was already a relatively good ending. She could save her life first, and she would definitely clear her son of this crime later.
Gu Chengzuo had already been poisoned by himself, and he could not touch a woman at all, so this so-called child of Su Zhaoyi was just a bastard. Even if King Jing killed him, it was for the sake of the royal family's reputation.
However, if she were to expose Gu Chengzuo's affairs now, she would definitely be suspected, so she could only start with the palace servants and find out the wild man who had an affair with Su Zhaoyi.
Clear his son's grievances and uncover Su Zhaoyi's true face.
Anyway, no matter how hard Gu Chengzuo tried, he couldn't touch the woman, let alone give birth to a child. In the end, the victory belonged to the mother and child.
It was all because the late emperor liked Prince Jing and hesitated several times, unwilling to change the position of crown prince, that's why she has been dormant for so many years.
Fortunately, the late emperor felt guilty and left an imperial edict for her and her son.
After King Jing was imprisoned, Concubine Jing also had a hard time, because the Queen Mother deeply regretted that she had agreed to let Concubine Jing allow King Jing to attend the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet, which caused her to lose her grandson.
At that time, the master said that there might be twists and turns, but I didn't expect that such twists and turns would happen to me.
She regretted it deeply.
Furthermore, the late emperor actually left such an imperial edict to Concubine Jing in private. By leaving such an imperial edict, wasn't the late emperor condoning Prince Jing's rebellion?
After all, he could still survive even if he committed treason. Did the late emperor love that mother and son so much?
But it was because he died early. Now I am the empress dowager, not the queen, so I don’t have to worry about my reputation.
She wanted to severely torture Concubine Jing, the beloved of the late emperor and the murderer who killed her grandson.
Only after King Jing was imprisoned in the palace did he realize how much Gu Chengzuo hated him.
Not only did the mansion's supply and expenses get cut off, but fortunately there was some food stored in the mansion's cellar, but it was only enough to last for a while. If they didn't farm themselves later, they would starve to death.
Let everyone know the emperor’s hatred for King Jing.
Moreover, he transferred away all the servants whom he had shown favor to. The ones left behind were the servants whom he looked down upon and used to beat, scold and punish. The servants were very good at changing their attitude according to the situation. Seeing that King Jing was in such a state of destitution, they did not care about him at all.
After a few days of hardship, Qi Yizi came to him crying about her stomachache again, saying that the child wanted to eat some meat and the child could not stand the thin porridge every day.
King Jing became angry when he looked at Qi Yizi. He himself couldn't even eat meat, and yet this scheming woman who had caused him to fall into such a miserable state still wanted to eat meat.
If she hadn't been secretly in love with him and deliberately ruined his marriage with Danruo, and later deliberately seduced him into bed and had a child with her, that would have made Sudanruo hate him out of love and he would have wanted to use his own life to frame him.
He raised his hand and slapped Qi Yizi, who was so scared that he ran away, protecting his stomach.
In the palace, Gu Chengzuo held a grand funeral. All the concubines came to keep vigil for Queen Su. They all had sad faces and tried to attract the emperor's attention by showing respect to the queen.
Originally Shufei, she was demoted to Zhaoyuan during a palace banquet. Later, because she failed to save the queen and the prince in time, she was demoted again and again to Yingying and sent to the cold palace.
Danruo arrived at the palace accompanied by Madam Su, burned incense and turned to leave.
The concubines whispered to each other that Empress Su's sister looked very similar to Empress Su.
Gu Chengzuo strode over and the concubines immediately stopped their discussion and all looked unhappy.
Gu Chengzuo only saw Dan Ruo's back as she left, and felt vaguely familiar with her.
Zhao Quan saw the emperor looking at the palace in deep thought and reminded him, "It's Empress Su's sister who just left."
Gu Chengzuo thought of the eldest daughter of the Su family. Because she was delayed by King Jing and Qi Yizi, she went from being a young girl to an older "divorced woman" with an awkward status. He had previously thought of giving the eldest daughter of the Su family an imperial decree after they had a child, since she was the child's aunt after all.
Now it's time for him to fulfill his promise.
"Zhao Quan, go draft the imperial edict. The eldest daughter of the Su family is virtuous and dignified, and serves as a role model for other ladies. She is promoted to Princess Minde."
The concubines originally thought that the emperor wanted to take Queen Su's sister into the palace to ease his longing for Queen Su, but they did not expect that the emperor would reward her with the title of a princess, which really made the concubines envious.
Empress Su is indeed more important to the emperor than Concubine Rong, the white moonlight.
Dan Ruo's entry into the palace also made everyone doubt King Jing's words.
King Jing said that Queen Su was Sultan Ruo, so how could she die in public and then appear in the palace in public a few days later?
It turned out that Gu Chengzuo placed her body in an ice coffin in the suburbs and also found a Taoist priest to try to resurrect her.
The Taoist priest covered himself with talismans and performed a ritual, telling Gu Chengzuo not to disturb him for a year.
A year later, the Queen Mother will begin to gather her soul. She may wake up a year from now, or she may have to wait ten years.
After Gu Chengzuo and the Taoist priest left, Dan Ruo took advantage of the night and used his spiritual power to avoid the heavy guards and returned to the Su Mansion.
After returning to the Su family, Minister Su finally felt relieved. Fortunately, Wushang's fake death medicine worked. He really didn't want to see his loved one die. In addition, his daughter was pregnant, and he didn't know whether the fake death medicine would have any effect on the child.
He hurriedly asked someone to invite Wu Shang, even though he was very angry that Wu Shang had kidnapped his little daughter and didn't want to see him.
But he also knew that Wushang's medical skills were indeed very powerful, and for the sake of his daughter's health, face was no longer important.
After changing her appearance, Sudan Ying felt bitter in her heart, "You are biased towards your sister."
Then she ran out crying, and Wushang apologized to Minister Su for her behavior.
