Many female relatives present recognized this Taoist nun, Yang Xin, the daughter of the Minister of Rites.
"This poor nun Kongfan greets His Majesty."
The emperor was puzzled, but his attitude was very good: "Nun Kongfan, please stand up. I wonder what brings you to the palace this time?"
Moreover, he had no idea that this person had entered the palace!
Thinking about it, he secretly glared at San Shunzi.
Three Straights: ...
All right! This is his fault! The inner palace is not a market, anyone can come here if they want!
He went down quietly and inquired about the situation.
But after hearing the report from the people below, San Shunzi: ...
Very good, another day of taking the blame for His Majesty!
What a beautiful day!
San Shunzi sighed helplessly, mourned for himself for a moment, then quietly came back and winked at the emperor, indicating that the emperor should look at his beloved wife.
emperor:???
He looked at Xin Guoguo doubtfully, but only got an innocent and confused look from the little girl. The emperor frowned and looked at San Shunzi, not understanding.
Three Straights: ...
Don’t want to talk!
Kong Fan had already stood up, put his hands together, and chanted a Buddhist prayer:
"Amitabha! Thank you, Your Majesty. I came to the palace today only to ask Your Majesty to help me! Let me wash away this injustice and serve the Buddha with integrity!"
This sentence reminded the emperor of how he had been praying to gods and Buddhas these days.
He quietly held the delicate hand of the person next to him, his expression softening:
"If Nun Kongfan has suffered any injustice, please feel free to tell me. If it is true, I will definitely seek justice for her!"
For the sake of his wife and children, he was willing to treat everyone well, but he would not lose the fairness of an emperor.
At this moment, most people's eyes were focused on Kong Fan.
Sanshunzi took the opportunity to lean over to the emperor's ear and said, "Your Majesty, it was the Empress who let her into the palace."
Or was it you who issued the order yourself, saying that the palace masters had to obey the Empress's orders and were not allowed to inquire about what the Empress wanted to do!
emperor:???!!!
This was even more shocking.
He turned his head to look at the little girl beside him who was well-behaved and pretending to be dignified, but secretly stuffing food into her mouth from time to time.
The little girl's mouth was now full of food, her cheeks bulging, and she looked like a little hamster stealing food.
The emperor immediately forgot his shock and only felt that such a little girl was really cute.
Seeing him looking at her again, the little girl finally swallowed what she had in her mouth and looked at him puzzledly:
"Your Majesty, what's wrong?"
The soft little appearance softened the emperor's heart.
He smiled and spoke softly, as if he was afraid that a louder voice would frighten the little girl:
"San Shunzi said that you were the one who let Nun Kongfan into the palace? Can I ask my beloved concubine why she was sent here?"
The little girl blinked her eyes:
"Huh? Your Majesty doesn't know? I thought they would tell Your Majesty!"
The emperor was helpless and rubbed the little girl's soft hair:
"I didn't want you to think I was spying on you, so I didn't let them report it."
When the little girl heard this, a bright smile immediately appeared on her face:
"Hehe! Your Majesty is so kind! However, from now on, I'll have to let them report to me, otherwise I'll have to tell Your Majesty myself."
She puffed out her cheeks, somewhat reluctantly.
"What? You don't want to talk to me?"
The emperor knew that the little girl wanted to be lazy, but he deliberately acted aggrieved.
Sure enough, the little girl felt distressed immediately:
"No! I just think... well... I'll talk to His Majesty myself later."
A look of confusion.
The emperor couldn't help laughing.
If it weren't for the wrong occasion, he would have laughed out loud three times.
The little girl was so innocent and gullible that he couldn't help but want to tease her.
The emperor pinched the little girl's soft face with amusement and said softly:
"How can I bear to let my beloved concubine suffer? I will ask them myself later."
“Hmmmm!!”
The little girl nodded hurriedly, as if she was afraid that he would regret it if she was a step slower.
The atmosphere between the two was soft, as if pink bubbles were flying in the air.
Kong Fan raised his eyes, which showed no sadness or joy, glanced at someone present, and suddenly smiled.
A sad smile:
"Half a year ago, I accompanied my parents to the birthday banquet of the old princess at the Qing Palace, but I never expected a disaster to be waiting.
"A servant from Prince Qing's mansion accidentally wet my dress and took me to change clothes. But there were aphrodisiac incense burning in the room, and a stranger was also present.
"My innocence was violated by someone, and before I could seek justice for myself, I was caught by a group of ladies. I was violated by someone and had no sense of shame.
“I want to seek justice for myself, find out the truth, and clear my name, but I don’t want rumors to hurt others or even bring harm to my family.
"I had no choice but to shave my head and become a nun, entering a monastery to practice asceticism. My engagement with the Prince of Qing was also cancelled.
"I can understand and accept all of this. But a few days ago, I learned the truth and realized that the reason I suffered this hardship was because of this marriage contract!"
Kong Fan's narration was very calm, without any ups and downs in his voice.
But every word and sentence sounded like tears in the ears of everyone, making many people's eyes red.
The Minister of Rites and his wife came over directly, knelt down in the hall, and burst into tears:
"Your Majesty, I only have one daughter, and she has suffered such a disaster! If it weren't for my daughter's strength, my family would probably not survive! I beg Your Majesty to make a decision for my daughter! Give her justice!"
The Minister of Rites also went to Prince Qing's mansion to seek justice for his daughter, but all he got was a retort and slander and contempt from Prince Qing's mansion.
