Chapter 595 Wrong
They are the majority, and that's just how people are sometimes.
Just have nothing to do with you.
Of course, there was also a rumor in Qingzhou and Yunzhou that the Sixth Prince Qi Yan had killed three provincial governors with his own hands.
But now it is just a rumor and it won't become a big deal.
However, the Sixth Prince's letter of apology and what he had done soon spread in the imperial city.
There was a lot of discussion in the court.
But no one dared to directly say that the Sixth Prince had done something wrong.
Because the emperor's attitude is really inexplicable.
Because those who knew him well knew that the emperor might be unhappy, but he was definitely not furious.
What's more, when the second prince did something wrong, they dared to say it because the Feng family had fallen by then and Concubine Qian Shu was not favored by anyone.
Even the second prince himself was not very favored.
But now it’s different.
The Shen family is at its peak, and the Pei family is a subject trusted by the emperor.
Concubine Jing has been in great favor for many years, and the Sixth Prince has always been favored.
It's ironic, but that's how Keren is.
Always bully those who have no ability to resist.
Of course, it’s not that no one dares to provoke, it’s just that they are still waiting and watching.
Concubine Li is waiting for news from the Fourth Prince, as well as the Second Prince, the Third Prince, and the Fifth Prince. Which one of them doesn't have thoughts in mind?
In the harem, there are even more people with ulterior motives.
But who is willing to be the first to do so? Concubine Jing is not someone you can easily mess with.
But when paying respects to Fengzao Palace, there will be people who will try to test you.
For example, Concubine Qianshu.
"This old man is really brave. He even dares to use the Emperor's Sword. Such a big thing should be done casually."
Shen Chuliu smiled and said, "That's right. My son killed a corrupt official, but your son became a corrupt official himself."
She was talking about how the Second Prince sheltered the Marquis of Jinchang when he went to the southwest.
After saying this, Concubine Qian Shu naturally felt ashamed, and Concubine Li was also very embarrassed.
"In my opinion, this is a matter of the previous dynasty. We don't have to worry about it. The emperor is here to take care of us." Rong Xiuyuan said.
"Rong Xiuyuan has no children, so naturally she doesn't understand these things. It's easy for her to say it." Concubine Qian Shu snorted.
"What Concubine Qian Shu said is absolutely right. I have never given birth. I don't need to worry about what to do if my child doesn't even know who is right or wrong. As for the matter of the Sixth Prince, the Emperor hasn't said anything yet. Why is Concubine Qian Shu so anxious? You don't have to suppress someone so obviously. This has been seen by everyone."
Rong Xiuyuan spoke slowly, but her words were heart-wrenching.
"Rong Xiuyuan is speaking in such a loud tone now! I didn't even know that you dared to talk back to me like this!" Concubine Qian Shu was furious.
"What's wrong with Concubine Qian Shu? We are just chatting. Why are you so angry?" Concubine Li smiled and said, "It's early in the morning and the Empress hasn't come yet. Why is it like this?"
"Who is chatting with her!" Concubine Qian Shu snorted.
"How dare I?" Rong Xiuyuan smiled and said, "My words and actions were inappropriate. I hope Your Majesty Qian Shufei will not take it to heart." As she said this, she picked up the tea without any sincerity.
Even though Concubine Qian Shu was extremely angry, she didn't want to do anything. After all, she was getting older and could tolerate more.
Even though she has always had a bad temper, unfortunately the circumstances are different, so she has to watch out for it if she wants to lose her temper.
However, she didn't believe that the Sixth Prince could get away with it like this.
The other concubines naturally thought the same.
Apart from Shen Chuliu, who is such a loving mother, how many others sincerely wish the best for the Sixth Prince?
Civil war is naturally impossible.
Even if there were some small-scale conflicts, they were quickly suppressed.
The dozen or so leaders were also arrested in mid-December.
Those who deserve beheading should be beheaded, and those who deserve slow slicing should be slow slicing.
After all, it was not the childish proposal of the Sixth Prince. Since ancient times, those who rebelled had never had a good end.
Unless you succeed.
However, ordinary people and soldiers were still able to escape.
The weather finally turned cold, and the princes who had been away from the palace for a long time began to miss the palace.
The most mysterious place in the world is still their home today.
On the 20th day of the twelfth lunar month, the imperial edict came down, finally summoning the princes back, still escorted by Shen Qingling.
Now that the three states of Jiangdong have General Feng, Zhao Cheng and others, there is no need for Shen Qingling to stay.
Of course, it is more important for him to escort the princes.
No matter how hard they tried, the princes failed to return before the New Year.
So, this year's New Year, there are three fewer princes.
Shen Chuliu was a little uncomfortable, but she felt relieved knowing that the child was fine.
Because he couldn't make it back this year, the Sixth Prince was able to celebrate his birthday on a natural day.
There are two brothers, a study partner, a guard, and an uncle.
He had a birthday that was not very lively but also very interesting. He ate longevity noodles and drank Bamboo Leaf Green tea in the inn.
When they finally got back, it was already the fourth day of the first lunar month.
There was a snowfall in the imperial city, and the snow was fluttering heavily, which was very beautiful.
In Taiji Palace, the princes and Shen Qingling who was escorted back paid their respects.
Qi Yixiu waved his hand and said to Shen Qingling, "My dear minister, you have worked hard. It is the New Year now. Go back to the mansion first and talk about other things tomorrow."
"I'm not tired, thank you, Your Majesty. I still have to go back to the yamen. There are many things to hand over. I will return home at night. I will definitely be able to enter the palace to serve you tomorrow." Shen Qingling said.
"No need, no need. You come to the palace tomorrow, do what you need to do, and then go back home. I will give you a half-month vacation." Qi Yixiu said with a smile.
Shen Qingling hurriedly thanked him and left the palace to go to the government office first.
The three princes stood there nervously.
"How do you feel about going out this time?" Qi Yixiu asked.
The fourth prince felt that he was the most powerful, so he said, "Father, I have really broadened my horizons this time, and I know a lot about the people. The people are suffering."
"What about you, Lao Wu?" Qi Yixiu did not comment.
"My son is stupid, but seeing the people suffering makes me feel very sad. Father always teaches us to put the people first. The situation in the three states is really due to the officials' failure in their duties."
Qi Yixiu just looked at the Sixth Prince.
The Sixth Prince knelt down without saying a word.
"Father, I was wrong. Please punish me and correct me." The Sixth Prince knelt down loudly.
Qi Yixiu raised his eyebrows: "What did Yan'er do wrong?"
"Father, Yan'er did everything wrong. I beg you to punish me and then teach me a lesson." The Sixth Prince lowered his head and looked very easy to talk to.
The Fourth Prince was furious, but he was the elder brother and had to speak up.
“Father, I am also wrong. I did not stop my sixth brother.” After saying this, he knelt down.
This can be considered as an indirect admission that the sixth brother was wrong.
He knelt, and the Fifth Prince did not dare not kneel: "Son, too."
Qi Yixiu walked back and sat down: "You are all wrong. Yan'er, tell me where you think you went wrong."
"Replying to Father. I have thought about it along the way, and my first mistake was impulsiveness. Father asked his sons to go and gain experience, but they are still young, so they should just go and watch and learn, and should not interfere lightly. It was my son who was reckless, and this was my first mistake."
