Chapter 24: The Angry Emperor with No Heir x The Cannon Fodder Female Match and the Concubine's Daughter 24
Because at this time Mo Liyuan didn't know that Aunt Qiao had given Qiao Zhenzhen a fake pregnancy pill, nor did he know that Aunt Qiao had given Li Huaijiang a prophecy come true, and he was angry for a while.
The eldest princess smiled proudly and said, "Yes, I didn't expect that the two children would be so efficient."
The Queen Mother glanced at the eldest princess, then said kindly, "Well, there are so many people at the palace banquet today, let's start quickly."
Mo Liyuan leaned absentmindedly on the dragon chair, holding his cheek with one hand, his mind already flying to Kunning Palace.
And in Kunning Palace, Aunt Qiao was also focusing on the palace banquet.
"System, I want to make this month's prophecy come true"
[Okay, host, please tell me the prophecy]
Aunt Qiao narrowed her eyes, she just wanted to tease them, she wanted to rely on Qiao Zhenzhen's pregnancy to improve Li Huaijiang's chances of becoming the crown prince, but she wouldn't let them do as they wished.
"Let the princess drink too much and say disrespectful words in front of the clan members and ministers"
They will be well behaved for a while after today, and even better after Qiao Zhenzhen has a miscarriage. By then, we can almost solve their problem.
[Ding, the prophecy has come true and has taken effect]
Aunt Qiao shook her head. It was a pity that she couldn't see it with her own eyes, but she could ask Mo Liyuan when he came.
The eldest princess picked up the wine glass, looked at the envious eyes of the people around her, and drank it all in one gulp with pride.
Prime Minister Qiao beside her wanted to give the princess some advice, but the princess simply refused to listen.
After three rounds of drinks, the eldest princess was already a little tipsy. She ignored the dancers who were dancing in the hall and stood up shakily.
"emperor"
The princess' tone was somewhat disdainful.
"Hahaha, my brother is incompetent, but I didn't expect you to be even more incompetent."
"My brother at least has a son like you, but you don't even have a son."
"Hahahaha, this is ridiculous just to me."
Prime Minister Qiao was startled, and he pulled the princess down to sit down, his voice was colder than ever before, "Are you crazy?"
But the princess just glanced at him and grinned, "Hmm? Am I wrong? Fortunately, he has no son, otherwise how can we complete the plan?"
Mo Liyuan was so angry that veins bulged on his forehead. He picked up the wine glass on the table and smashed it in front of the princess.
"Very good, someone come here"
"Send the Princess and Prime Minister Qiao back to the Prime Minister's Mansion and lock the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion."
As soon as Mo Liyuan finished speaking, the princess pointed at him and cursed, "How dare you? I am the princess, my daughter is the future queen, and my son-in-law is the future emperor. Who dares to disrespect me?"
"I dare." Mo Liyuan stood up and smiled coldly. His temper, which had improved because of Aunt Qiao, instantly rose. "Pass on my decree. The eldest princess disrespected the late emperor and me. I will strip her of her status as the eldest princess and confine her to the Prime Minister's residence."
After saying this, he glanced at Li Huaijiang and Qiao Zhenzhen, who were already pale, and said, "Li Huaijiang, the son of the Grand Tutor, colluded with the Princess, intending to usurp the throne. He will never be allowed to serve as an official in the court."
The Queen Mother sat aside without saying a word, but one could tell how angry she was just by looking at her expression.
At this moment, the princess had been overwhelmed by Prime Minister Qiao. He was afraid that if the princess continued talking, his position as prime minister would be in jeopardy.
The wonderful palace banquet ended because of the eldest princess's farce.
By the time Mo Liyuan arrived at Kunning Palace, it was already very late.
Aunt Qiao held her chin in her hand while waiting, trying not to feel sleepy. She yawned and wiped away the tears that were overflowing from the corners of her eyes.
"My dear, why don't you take a rest first?"
Mo Liyuan has recovered as usual. If she didn't know what happened at the palace banquet, Jinjin Qiao really wouldn't have been able to tell that he had just been angry.
Qiao Jinjin stood up, pulled Mo Liyuan to look him up and down, pouted and said, "Did the emperor get angry just now?"
Mo Liyuan smiled helplessly and said, "My beloved concubine is really smart. She knows all this."
Aunt Qiao secretly rolled her eyes in anger. She was the culprit, how could she not know that?
"I guessed it"
"Okay, I guessed it." Mo Liyuan scratched Qiao Jinjin's perky little nose and sat down.
Holding Qiao Jinjin's slender waist, he took a deep breath and said, "The eldest princess was disrespectful to the late emperor and to me. I will demote her from her position as princess."
"Li Huaijiang was also punished by me"
Aunt Qiao blinked her eyes. It seemed that the disrespectful words spoken by the eldest princess were quite serious.
It is worthy of being a system product.
"Your Majesty, please don't be angry. Since the eldest princess was disrespectful to the late emperor and you in front of so many people, it is only right for Your Majesty to demote her. This is exactly what Your Majesty wants."
Mo Liyuan snorted and rubbed Aunt Qiao's belly lovingly. "Of course I'm not angry now, but I just didn't deal with Prime Minister Qiao."
Aunt Qiao thought for a moment and said, "There's no need to rush to deal with him, so as not to alarm him."
The princess came to her senses when she returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
He opened his eyes and saw Prime Minister Qiao's sullen face, and turned his head away guiltily.
Prime Minister Qiao gritted his teeth and said, "You are not like this usually. Why do you talk too much after drinking a little?"
The princess held the bed sheet to hide her anxiety, looked up at Prime Minister Qiao and said, "I don't know what's wrong with me. I can't control myself."
"Then tell me, what should we do now? Even I am confined to the Prime Minister's Mansion." Prime Minister Qiao paced back and forth, wishing he could strangle this guy who was incapable of doing anything but always causing trouble.
The princess pursed her lips and said, "Why not just stay calm for a while, and when the emperor's anger has subsided, I will send a letter to the emperor to apologize."
Prime Minister Qiao glanced at her and snorted coldly, "This is the only way now. I will not come to your courtyard during this period of time, hum."
Seeing Prime Minister Qiao flicking his sleeves and leaving without even turning back, the eldest princess blushed.
The Grand Tutor's residence was even more chaotic than the Prime Minister's residence. Li Huaijiang couldn't help but start cursing in the carriage, not caring at all that Qiao Zhenzhen was present.
"Mother, have you lost your mind? How could you say such a thing? What should I do now? I won't even have the chance to serve as an official in the court anymore."
Qiao Zhenzhen wiped her tears, tugged at Li Huaijiang's clothes and said, "Husband, what should we do now? Mother has been demoted from her position as princess."
"You ask me, who should I ask?" Li Huaijiang couldn't help but yelled at Qiao Zhenzhen.
Qiao Zhenzhen shuddered with fear. She had never seen Li Huaijiang so angry before.
Even after getting off the carriage, Li Huaijiang didn't pay any attention to Qiao Zhenzhen and walked into the mansion first.
Lian Yue quickly supported Qiao Zhenzhen and didn't even dare to say a word, for fear that if she spoke now, Qiao Zhenzhen would use it to vent her anger.
"What? Princess, have you had enough of your peaceful life? Things have finally made some progress, but now it's like this..."
After hearing what Li Huaijiang said, Master Li was completely dumbfounded.
Li Huaijiang pinched his brows in annoyance and slumped in his chair, not wanting to move. "Now my son has been implicated by her."
The more Master Li thought about it, the more annoyed he became. He suddenly swept the books on the desk to the ground.
"The princess's words are simply rubbing salt into the emperor's wounds. Qiao Zhenzhen is pregnant so quickly. The emperor must be displeased with you."
