The third wife was escorted back to Beijing and thrown directly into prison.
"My brother is the father-in-law of the emperor, and my niece is the queen. Please be polite to me, or I will never let you go when I get out."
The third brother suffered a lot along the way. When he arrived at the prison in the capital and saw those people being tortured, he was terrified.
"What are you shouting for? Send a message to Big Brother and the old lady and ask them to come and rescue us."
When Xiao Hong arrived at the prison, he saw his brother and his entire family imprisoned next door, and was completely stunned.
The Hong family had been locked up in jail for a month and had long lost their energy and spirit. When they saw the third branch of the Bei family being brought in, they couldn't muster any strength at all.
Uncle Hong sneered, "You're overthinking it. If they wanted to save us, they would have done so long ago. Our Hong family has never participated in the rebellion."
They were brought to the capital by Prince Fu without knowing why, and were thrown into jail without doing anything.
The Bei family didn't care about them at all.
The Hong family was in despair.
"We didn't rebel either."
Bei Lao San just felt that he was so wronged. Apart from sending his daughter to Prince Fu's Mansion, he didn't get any benefits at all.
But before, Bei Lao San didn't care. As long as Prince Fu entered the palace, his daughter would also be a concubine.
But now he has gained nothing. He and his elder brother separated and went to Yazhou, but he gained three beautiful concubines.
Now he has been implicated in Prince Fu's rebellion and has been imprisoned. If his elder brother doesn't save him, he will be doomed.
No, big brother won’t ignore him.
When Dad passed away, my eldest brother promised to take good care of us younger brothers.
Bei Lao San kept shouting that he wanted to see Censor Bei.
Bei Lingyao became the queen, and Censor Bei was granted the title of Duke Feng'en and became the father-in-law of the emperor.
At this time, at the Bei family, Censor Bei was receiving the Bei clan members.
The elders of the Bei family and Bei Lao Er went to Beijing again and learned that Bei Lao San and the Hong family were involved in the case of Prince Fu's rebellion.
They were scared to death back home.
Fortunately, Bei Xiufu's family was able to do well, and his daughter entered the palace and became the queen, and gave birth to the prince.
Otherwise, the Bei family would be finished.
Old Mrs. Bei lay there sickly, wailing from time to time, saying how miserable her life was.
Although she had agreed to spare the life of the third branch, she was still worried about the exile from the clan.
He immediately ordered, "Help me over."
"Treason is a heinous crime punishable by the death of nine generations of the clan. I can only save the lives of my third brother and his family, but if our Bei family does nothing, how will the emperor view us?
Prince Fu's rebellion is a fact, and the daughter of the third wife is Prince Fu's concubine. My family, the Bei clan, cannot continue to be involved with the rebels. My third brother and his family must be expelled from the clan."
Censor Bei could plead for the third branch and the Hong family and exonerate them. Now that Yao'er is in favor, Emperor Shengwu will naturally not pursue the matter and will not care about the third branch of the Bei family.
But if the relationship between the couple has problems in the future, the third wife will become the handle and accusation of the Bei family.
Not to mention other dynasties, even during the time of the previous emperor, there was a time when he wanted to depose the empress dowager, make Concubine Bao the empress, and make the prince born to Concubine Bao the crown prince.
The concubines in the harem who had princes saw that Concubine Bao was powerful and the empress, who had no children and no favor, was not afraid of the threat, so they joined forces with their natal family to try to stop her.
The Bao family controls the northwest army, and Concubine Bao is the queen. Once the Bao family has any ulterior motives, it is hard to say whether the world will be named Huangfu or Bao in the future.
In the end, the late emperor dispelled the idea, but he treated Concubine Bao even better.
He wanted the stars but not the moon, and spent a lot of manpower and money to build the Star-Picking Tower and the Fairy Flower Garden for Concubine Bao.
I travel a hundred miles to get mountain spring water, a thousand miles to deliver lychees, and ten thousand miles to get shark fin silk, just to win a beauty's smile.
When Concubine Bao was the most favored concubine in the harem, the late emperor would not even set foot in the empress dowager's palace on the first and fifteenth days of the lunar month.
Censor Bei thought about the various actions of the late emperor who wanted to praise Concubine Bao to the sky.
Even if the emperor is not the previous emperor, his mind is unpredictable and serving him is like serving a tiger.
Even though his daughter became the queen and his grandson became the crown prince, he was not completely at ease.
The elders of the Bei clan had no objection to the third branch leaving the clan.
"Boss, that's your biological brother, from your maternal grandfather's uncle's family. Don't tell me about treason. They didn't rebel at all. You could have gotten rid of them. They wouldn't have died, and they wouldn't have had to be exiled to Mobei."
The more Mrs. Bei thought about it, the more resentful she felt. If her granddaughter had not become the queen and had not given birth to a prince for the emperor, and if the eldest son could not save the third son and the Hong family, she would have accepted it.
But the emperor disbanded the harem for his granddaughter, so why couldn't he completely protect the third house and the Hong family?
Even if I am exiled, I will be exiled back to my hometown.
In any case, Mrs. Bei said she was unwilling to let the third branch and the Hong family go to Mobei to suffer.
Even going to Yazhou is better than going to Mobei. It is freezing cold in the north. How can you survive there?
What's more, the eldest brother's family is rich, so why doesn't he help his younger brother? He is too cruel.
This evil son is heartless, ungrateful, unfilial and unfraternal!
She couldn't die. If she died, who would be able to protect her in the Third House and the Hong Family? She would be bullied to death by the eldest brother.
"When you say this, mother, first find out what happened to the families involved in Prince Fu's rebellion."
As soon as Censor Bei finished speaking, the Bei family members all started to criticize Old Lady Bei. They had found out everything on the way to Beijing.
The case of Prince Fu's rebellion involved a wide range of people. Many people were killed in the vegetable market, and blood flowed like a river.
Now, apart from Prince Fu's family being imprisoned in the clan house and the Liu family being stripped of their titles and exiled, only the third branch and the Hong family can still save their lives.
The emperor did not take any action because of the Bei family.
"Mother, you don't have to push my eldest brother. If you hadn't indulged my third brother, how could he have fostered his ambition? I heard that you supported sending my niece to Prince Fu's palace as a concubine. The Hong family was brought to the capital by Prince Fu. When they came to see you, not only did you not try to dissuade them, you also allowed the Hong family to get involved with my niece. It's all my fault that my third brother and the Hong family are in this situation today."
Bei Laoer thought to himself, it’s a good thing that he is not the eldest son, otherwise he would have no hope of living with such an old mother.
From childhood to adulthood, he was sad that his mother didn't like him. Knowing the life of his eldest brother's family and the fate of his third brother, Bei Lao Er was extremely grateful.
Old Lady Bei was almost fainting from rage. She pointed her trembling finger at Old Second Bei and yelled, "You unfilial son! You actually blame your mother! She should have drowned in the chamber pot when she gave birth to you."
"I know that mother looks down on me, and I won't go near her, but I am the head of the Bei family. My third brother is closely related to Prince Fu's rebellion. Prince Fu's wives and concubines' families have all been in trouble. If it weren't for my eldest brother and the queen, our entire Bei family would be finished.
This is related to the rise and fall of the Bei family, and my third brother must leave the family. We, the Bei family, must not have anything to do with those who plot rebellion. It is useless to force my eldest brother on this matter."
My eldest brother is in the officialdom, he is the censor and the father-in-law of the emperor. He is very careful about his reputation and that's why I control him.
He is the bad guy in my mind.
"If Dad knew about this, he would support me. I went to Dad's grave to pay my respects before coming to Beijing. I also reported everything Mom did over the years to Dad and our ancestors."
Bang!
Old Mrs. Bei was so angry that she closed her eyes and fainted.
