Chapter 99: The Divorced Wife of the Childless King 43



The Yang family really has big plans. Once the emperor agrees, there will be four members of the Yang family in the court, and each of them will be powerful and hold important positions.

This does not include the Yang family faction in the court.

No wonder Emperor Jiahe was angry and depressed.

Could it be that my promotion was too fast and gave the Yang family inspiration?

"During this period, you should carefully check the palace servants of Yongshou Palace. If you find anything wrong, return it to the Ministry of Internal Affairs. It is better to kill the wrong person than to let him go."

There was a flash of fierceness in Emperor Jiahe's gentle eyes. The pain of losing sons and daughters many times made him very frustrated.

As an emperor, the initial pain of losing his son was unexpected, but he sent people to protect his subsequent children, but still failed to do so.

"Your Majesty, rest assured. I will thoroughly investigate. There is also Madam Qu."

As soon as Bei Lingyao finished speaking, Emperor Jiahe paused, "The people I arrange may not be trustworthy. Over the years, I have worked hard to get rid of the Yang family and cultivate my own people.

But the people the Yang family has planted in the palace are lurking deep inside. There must be some around me, not to mention my mother.

Even though they have been subdued for many years, if the conflict between me, the Queen Mother, and the Yang family intensifies, they may turn against me."

Bei Lingyao was not worried about Yongshou Palace. Her spiritual consciousness had left a mark on the minds of all the palace residents in Yongshou Palace.

No matter who they are, if they have evil thoughts, she can not only control them, but also kill them suddenly.

But now that Emperor Jiahe wants to investigate, Bei Lingyao will naturally give him some help.

If the Yang family doesn't restrain themselves and attempts to control the emperor, even if Emperor Jiahe doesn't destroy them, Bei Lingyao will take action.

The next emperor is her son, and the Yang family wants to continue the family lineage, but with her around, it will be impossible for the next generation.

She even wants Concubine Shu's father to be the Prince's tutor to her son. What a pipe dream!

Bei Lingyao was secretly complaining in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face.

After Emperor Jiahe left, his spiritual consciousness was placed in the Yong'an Earl's Mansion.

Lin San has been taken away for investigation.

The wife of the Earl of Yong'an was lying in bed. She had been under house arrest by the Earl of Yong'an for the past few months and had been ill several times. She had been able to hold on by relying on the hatred in her heart.

"So what if that bastard is lucky? He can't escape this round."

The wife of the Earl of Yong'an had already made up her mind: to wipe out the entire Yong'an House and bury her child with it, and then put the blame on Lin San, and then become a nun and practice Buddhism herself.

She is now a sick and innocent lady of the baron.

Moreover, the person who poisoned the woman was Lin San's servant, who was silenced by her people and has now escaped from the capital and gone far away.

Lady Yong'an had a good idea, and everything was planned so perfectly.

But when her people were captured by the Black Xuanwei, her face turned pale.

At this time, undercurrents were surging in the capital. After Lin San was arrested, some people said that the murder of the Yong'an Earl's Mansion was committed by Concubine Zhuang.

Yet some people still believe it.

Even if Concubine Zhuang doesn't have the ability, the emperor definitely does.

Concubine Zhuang was a "second-married woman" and gave birth to a prince. The emperor and Concubine Zhuang must have wanted to erase the stain of the Yong'an Earl's Mansion.

Those who spread these rumors were secretly arrested as soon as they started.

Wow, after this investigation, it was found that not only the Yang family, but also the Wang family, Concubine Jing, Hui Shu Dexian and other concubines' families all came out to cause trouble.

The Yang family was the mastermind, and they even planted people in the families of the concubines. Under deliberate instigation, the families of the concubines all took action secretly.

Emperor Jiahe had already deployed his men in place, and this time he was sure to catch them all.

After finding out, Emperor Jiahe was greatly disappointed.

He took the evidence and went to see the Queen Mother with a gloomy face.

The Queen Mother fell silent after reading it.

Although these people wanted to discredit Concubine Zhuang, they were also indirectly discrediting the emperor.

It was just spread that the emperor was deceived by Concubine Zhuang and wiped out the entire Yong'an Earl's Mansion.

"Emperor, I will investigate the Yang family's affairs and give you an explanation."

Emperor Jiahe did not want to force his mother, but the Yang family was becoming more and more excessive.

He said: "The law does not punish the masses. There are more than twenty families involved. Mother, this is all led by the Yang family.

I don't believe that my grandfather and uncle don't know about it. My mother also knows the capabilities of the Yang family. My mother and I have both been beneficiaries of it.

But the Yang family's reach is getting longer and longer. Not only in the harem, but also in the families of the concubines in the harem, I am terrified. "Mother, I am terrified.

The Queen Mother's eyes turned red, and she said in a trembling voice, "I will definitely talk to your grandfather. Your Majesty, please don't get angry yet. Anger is harmful to your health."

"Mother, the Yang family has spies throughout the harem and the concubines' families. I'm even wondering how many civil officials and generals, as well as members of the royal family and nobles, have spies from the Yang family, or perhaps even all of them. Mother, I suspect my offspring..."

"Your Majesty, be careful with your words. This is impossible."

The Empress Dowager's eyes narrowed, and she immediately interrupted the Emperor, "Even if your grandfather and uncle have selfish motives, they will not harm you, let alone your offspring."

The Queen Mother is confident about this.

But Emperor Jiahe didn't dare to believe it.

He used to think so too. His grandfather and uncles had always loved him and protected him since he was a child. They hired people to teach him reading and martial arts.

He felt that they would never harm him or his offspring.

But today, he was shocked by the results found by Hei Xuanwei.

Emperor Jiahe knew that the Yang family had someone in the harem, but he only knew what was obvious. There were many hidden things that he didn't know.

If the Yang family can reach into the concubines' families to manipulate public opinion, can't they deal with the royal heirs in the harem?

Emperor Jiahe thought about it again. After the first child fell into the water and died, he sent people to protect the other children.

But except for the queen's two children who were killed by Mingli, the other children all died of illness.

One illness can be fatal.

In the past, he thought that the child was young and frail, that the palace maids did not take good care of him, and that the concubines were negligent.

Now that all this was pushed onto the Yang family, Emperor Jiahe shuddered.

"Emperor, don't let your imagination run wild. Your grandfather loves you the most. Your uncles..."

The Queen Mother spoke of the good things that Yang's father and brother had done in the past.

Emperor Jiahe acknowledged this; otherwise, he wouldn't have been so close to the Yang family after ascending to the throne, allowing them to occupy high positions.

Return one door to two countries.

If it weren't for Concubine Shu's resemblance to the Empress Dowager, Emperor Jiahe would have definitely favored any cousin sent by the Yang family into the palace.

The Yang family's mistake was to send Concubine Shu into the palace. Otherwise, the emperor would have had another cousin of the Yang family give birth to a prince when he was not prepared.

Not to mention that the empress died early and abdicated, it is hard to say whether Emperor Jiahe could still live to this day.

Perhaps the Yang family would let Emperor Jiahe live, but they would definitely only keep the princes born to Yang's daughters.

Emperor Jiahe had no choice.

Otherwise, Emperor Jiahe could only die of illness.

At this moment, Emperor Jiahe could no longer control the endless imagination in his mind.

He could no longer remain calm, and his expression became increasingly serious.

If the Yang family's power is greater than he imagined, he cannot act rashly.

The Empress Dowager watched Emperor Jiahe leave, feeling worried. Has the Emperor and the Yang family finally reached this point?
