When Tu Qingyu came in, he seemed to be completely unaware of what was happening. He bowed and saluted, "Greetings to Your Majesty, and to Your Majesty."
Then she raised her head, her eyes were clear and bright, and she was so lively that even the Crown Princess had to admit that she was really beautiful.
If she were a man, it would be hard for her not to be moved.
Unfortunately, she is a woman, and she shares a husband with the other man.
Jiang Jingchuan stood up and helped her up, and asked with a smile in his eyes, "Why are you so polite today?"
"Because you are His Majesty, you should be more polite when you are outside." She leaned over and whispered, then looked around, "What's going on? Why are all the people here?"
There was confusion in her eyes when she asked these questions, but the more she asked this, the angrier Jiang Jingchuan became.
Why is it that there are always people reaching out their claws, always trying to frame her and take her away from her.
It's simply unforgivable!
Qian Fengyi sneered, "Tu Liangdi is such a good actress. Doesn't she know what she did?"
"What did I do?" Tu Qingyu frowned and looked at her, "Tell me clearly."
Jiang Jingchuan pulled her into a chair and said, "Sit down first, don't be in a hurry."
As soon as she sat down, He San brought people in to serve her snacks and tea.
All the women in the room were stunned. What was going on? Someone was going to accuse Tu Liangdi of having an affair!
Is this the time to have snacks and drink tea?
But Jiang Jingchuan ignored them and just gently said, "Don't be angry, just watch the show."
Then he returned to the seat and asked, "You can tell me now. You said she had an affair with someone. Who was it with? Do you have any evidence?"
"Cough cough..." Tu Qingyu, who had just taken a bite of dessert and drank a sip of tea, was choked as if in surprise.
Jiang Jingchuan, who had just sat down, was worried and stood up to massage her back. "Eat slowly. You're such a grown-up, how could you still choke?"
Tu Qingyu grabbed his arm and said, "Your Majesty, did I hear correctly? What did she say? She said I was having an affair?"
Those beautiful eyes widened, full of disbelief and absurdity.
"Don't worry, I believe you." He patted her back and said, "Didn't I tell you? Just treat it as a show."
People in the harem have rarely seen Jiang Jingchuan like this, and now they have finally opened their eyes.
But they didn't dare to look any further.
They had a premonition that this matter would not succeed today.
When Qian Fengyi saw this scene, his eyes turned red with jealousy.
"Your Majesty, I saw this with my own eyes. I even saw her hand a handkerchief to the adulterer!"
Jiang Jingchuan patted Tu Qingyu's hand and sat back at the head of the table. He lowered his eyes and looked at the people kneeling below. "Then tell me, who is the adulterer?"
"Yes, it's His Royal Highness Prince Xuan!"
"King Xuan?"
"Yes, I later checked. Usually in the East Palace, it was inconvenient for Tu Liangdi to go out to meet him, so they communicated through letters. Tu Liangdi would occasionally take out her handkerchief along with the letters.
These past few days, everyone has been keeping vigil for the late emperor, so naturally they have to leave the Eastern Palace. Just yesterday, I saw the two of them hugging each other in the Chunjin Waterside Pavilion next to the Imperial Garden."
After she said these words, Jiang Jingchuan's face became completely gloomy.
It was not because he believed Qian Fengyi's words, but because he was angry that Qian Fengyi dared to involve such a person with his son.
Others thought he was angry.
Tu Qingyu's eyes were filled with surprise, and he quickly stood up, "Your Majesty, please understand, I..."
"I know, sit down."
Before she could finish, she was interrupted by Jiang Jingchuan.
She looked up and saw the trust in his eyes, which made her smile.
After she sat down again, Jiang Jingchuan went back upstairs and sat next to the Crown Princess.
"You claim she's colluding with King Xuan. Do you have any other evidence? I can't possibly search the residences of a concubine and a prince just based on your one-sided story."
"I saw this with my own eyes, and I have the evidence... If we search Tu Liangdi's residence, she will definitely have letters with King Xuan."
Tu Qingyu sneered, "How ridiculous! When I was a concubine, you could search the palace as you pleased. Now that I'm a concubine, you still let me search the palace?"
She raised her eyes to look at Jiang Jingchuan, "Does it mean that anyone can search my palace just by making up a pretext to pin it on me?"
Jiang Jingchuan comforted her, "Don't worry, it won't happen."
"Your Majesty!" Qian Fengyi shouted, "Your Majesty, this is a grave crime of defiling the harem!"
"Yes, Your Majesty. In the previous dynasty, Emperor Wen Taizong would rather kill someone by mistake than let him go. Now it's Tu Liangdi's turn. How can you not even investigate?" Zeng Fengyi also spoke at this time.
After saying this, she glanced at Chen Liangdi uncontrollably.
Chen Liangdi never spoke a word and just quietly drank the tea in front of her.
After Zeng Fengyi finished speaking, half of the people in the harem knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, please investigate thoroughly! Your Majesty, please investigate thoroughly!"
Among this half of people, some are the Crown Princess's people, some are Chen Liangdi's people, and some are just jealous people who couldn't help but want to pull Tu Qingyu down this time.
The remaining half are still smart and rational.
They knew from Tu Qingyu and Jiang Jingchuan's attitude that this matter was not that simple.
Jiang Jingchuan picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. The sound when he put the cup down almost made everyone present tremble in their hearts.
"Alright." He was almost laughing at these idiots. "Since you insist, then search the entire East Palace."
"Li Shi."
"promise."
"He San, go and take King Xuan under control and search his palace."
Maybe he could actually discover something. He was just worried that he had no reason to gouge out the other person's eyes.
"promise."
The Crown Princess tried to stop him from searching the entire Eastern Palace, but he brushed her off and she didn't dare to speak again.
She didn't know if it was her illusion, but since His Majesty ascended the throne, his majesty had become increasingly solemn. Sometimes, she almost dared not look directly at him.
Li Shi and He San were very efficient. Half an hour later, they both returned to the main hall of the East Palace.
First came Li Shi, who brought his men in. "Your Majesty, we didn't find anything else in Tu Liangdi's palace, but we did find some letters elsewhere."
He took a few steps forward and presented the letters to Jiang Jingchuan. "These letters and some things that don't look like they belong in the East Palace were all found in Zeng Fengyi Palace."
"This is impossible!" Zeng Fengyi looked at the familiar things on it and said subconsciously, "I clearly..."
It has clearly been dealt with, so why is it still here?
Lu Huaixi caught the loophole in her words and asked, "Mingming what?"
Everyone looked at Zeng Fengyi. She reacted and secretly pinched her thigh to calm herself down.
"I clearly didn't do anything."
Li Shi: "Don't worry, there's more."
