She ordered it down.
I thought there would be some movement in Prince Xian's Mansion during these three days, but I didn't expect that there would be no movement at all.
This result surprised Zhao Yunzhu greatly.
However, she soon understood why this was the case, because news came from the border that there was an emergency with food and fodder.
The most surprising thing about this news is that it spread among the people.
A sudden storm arose from nowhere.
The emperor was furious. After a thorough investigation, all the evidence pointed to Prime Minister Liu.
The emperor ordered people to escort the grain and fodder to the border, and at the same time imprisoned Prime Minister Liu.
The wind direction in Chang'an keeps changing.
The people in the court were in panic.
Since the emperor did not make a clear statement, the Dali Temple did not dare to hastily make a conclusion on Prime Minister Liu.
"Miss, this is a letter sent by the virtuous princess."
Zhao Yunzhu took the letter from the maid and was speechless. "It's strange that she can send a letter to me at this time."
She didn't believe that Song Shumin had any good intentions.
But when she opened the letter and looked at the contents inside, Zhao Yunzhu frowned and her heart seemed to be in her throat.
Because the letter said that Qin Zong was seriously injured in a battle at the border a few days ago.
Now he is at the gates of hell.
The purpose of Song Shumin's letter was to tell her that everything that Prince An encountered at the border was because of Prime Minister Liu.
Now the Xianwang Mansion hopes that Zhao Yunzhu can come forward so that Prime Minister Liu can receive the punishment he deserves.
"Has the prince received any news recently?"
Zhao Yunzhu held the letter tightly in her hand. She had been busy these days and had completely ignored Qin Zongzhi's news.
Now that I have calmed down, I suddenly remembered that I really haven't received any news from Prince An in these days.
"Miss!"
Nanny Hua rushed into the room with a serious expression. Zhao Yunzhu felt empty in her heart and her body stiffened.
"What's wrong?"
I feel inexplicably uneasy.
Nanny Hua stepped forward with concern, carefully helping her young lady sit down. Then she sighed and said, "Young lady, you have to hold on. The prince, the prince..."
Zhao Yunzhu felt a sudden roar in her head, "But is something wrong with the prince?"
She herself didn't realize that there was a hint of hoarseness and choking in her voice.
Aunt Hua's eyes were slightly red, and her heart was heavy. "Don't worry, my lady. Your Highness, you will surely be blessed by heaven. You will be fine."
With just one sentence, Zhao Yunzhu's anxious heart fell to the ground.
Her body softened and she fell backwards. Seeing this, Aunt Hua hurried forward to support her young lady.
Zhao Yunzhu took a long time to recover, a hint of sadness in her eyes, "Mammy, call the doctor of the Li Mansion."
Not long after, Doctor Li came hurriedly. On the way, he had heard about Prince An's current condition from Nanny Hua.
"Doctor Li, the prince is entrusting him to you."
"Girl, don't worry, that kid is lucky, he will be fine."
Zhao Yunzhu understood that Doctor Li didn't want her to worry, so she nodded with a wry smile.
Doctor Li got on a carriage and rushed to the border that day.
Zhao Yunzhu called the guards and increased the number of guards in the palace. Now, the wise king must be taking action.
After arranging everything, she called the maid to change into court clothes for her, and then she got on the carriage and left Prince An's Mansion.
Linglong looked worried, "Miss, if..."
She already knew what her young lady was going to do today, and she was just worried about her safety.
"Now, this is all I can do for you, Your Highness."
Zhao Yunzhu got off the carriage with Linglong's help. She raised her head and looked at the palace. No one had expected it to reach this point.
Her steps were heavy until she reached the palace gate. She suddenly knelt down and shouted loudly, "Your Majesty, I am the Concubine Yun of Prince An's Mansion. I beg the Emperor to make a decision for my Prince An!"
Zhao Yunzhu held the letter, which had been expedited from the border over 800 miles away, in her hands. Her eyes were filled with determination. "Because Prime Minister Liu pursued his own selfish interests, he ignored Prince An's bloody battles at the border for the people and the country. This has led to a shortage of food and fodder, and Prince An has been seriously injured. His life is now hanging by a thread."
"I beg the Emperor to execute Prime Minister Liu and give Prince An justice!"
Every word Zhao Yunzhu spoke was sonorous and powerful. The guards at the palace gate were panicked when they saw this scene and hurriedly sent someone into the palace to pass on the message.
Many people had gathered at the palace gate to watch.
Everyone was whispering to each other.
After a while, a palace maid stepped forward and said, "Concubine Yun, the Emperor invites you into the palace to speak."
The palace maid secretly looked at Concubine Yun. This was the first time they saw Concubine Yun act like this. Even when the Zhao family was in trouble before, Concubine Yun had never acted like this.
The emperor was waiting for Zhao Yunzhu's arrival with a gloomy face in the imperial book.
Seeing the palace maid leading Zhao Yunzhu towards him, he dropped the memorial in his hand with a look of displeasure on his face.
"Your Majesty, I beg you to make the decision for my prince!"
Zhao Yunzhu entered the hall under the guidance of the palace maid. She suddenly knelt down, lowered her head and raised the letter above her head with both hands.
The emperor's displeased voice reached my ears, "Is the emperor's sister-in-law now like everyone else, trying to force me to do what I want?"
Zhao Yunzhu raised her head and looked at the emperor, her eyes filled with sorrow. "Your Majesty, Prince An is now in danger of death. I do not want to force Your Majesty. I simply hope that Your Majesty can give my prince justice! Please do not let my prince and the border generals down!"
She was in tears, and every word she said accused Prime Minister Liu of being selfish.
The emperor frowned, and the cold light in his eyes seemed to want to split Zhao Yunzhu's body in half.
There was a dead silence in the hall. The palace maids serving in the hall hung their heads, not daring to breathe, wishing they could learn a spell to become invisible.
So that I can disappear into thin air.
"Royal sister-in-law!"
The emperor's cold voice came, Zhao Yunzhu raised her head, her eyes full of calmness.
The letter in her hand had been taken away by the palace servant and presented to the emperor.
"Sister-in-law, please go back first. I will give you a satisfactory answer."
Seeing the emperor's firm attitude, Zhao Yunzhu knew in his heart that he could not force him any further. This was the greatest sincerity the emperor could show.
"Your Majesty, I thank you on behalf of Prince An."
Zhao Yunzhu kowtowed to thank the emperor, and the emperor raised his hand to signal her to leave.
After Zhao Yunzhu left the palace, he ordered people to go directly to Prince Xian's mansion.
The servant at the door was stunned when he saw the carriage of Prince An's Mansion, and then he saw Concubine Yun getting off the carriage.
He hurriedly sent someone back to pass on the message.
Zhao Yunzhu was welcomed into the palace by servants, but the wise prince was not present today.
Song Shumin was more or less surprised at her arrival.
"It's rare for Concubine Yun to come."
The two exchanged greetings, and Zhao Yunzhu went straight to the point, "Princess Xian, I came to the palace today to request the Emperor to give Prince An an explanation. I came today to make a deal with the Xian Prince."
A hint of surprise flashed in Song Shumin's eyes.
"Oh? Concubine Yun has nothing that can be exchanged with my prince."
