Chapter 445: Can't Keep It Hidden Anymore
evening.
The sun is coming out.
The sky showed a hint of smile.
The sunset glowed the entire sky red.
Like a burning fire.
The palace was also shrouded in red.
As soon as Miaomiao saw Princess Yuqing, she ran over and hugged her without saying a word.
Let out a long sigh.
It's okay.
Finally I saw it, there’s still time.
Princess Yuqing looked her daughter up and down and said, "Miaomiao, you just came in. Did anyone give you any trouble?"
She always took Xiao Yuer to cry in front of her father before he let her in.
"No." Miaomiao shook her head.
There were no guards stopping them in other places, except for the two at the door, who hesitated for a long time.
Fortunately, she had the foresight to fully utilize her financial ability.
Those two guards were appointed by the emperor to guard the queen.
They were also hesitant at first, wondering whether to let Princess Mingzhu in.
After all, the queen is under house arrest. If anyone can enter, it would be tantamount to disregarding the emperor's order.
But Princess Yuqing received the holy order and went in.
Right now this...
It is said that she was personally conferred the title of Princess Mingzhu by the Emperor.
The two looked at each other.
One shook his head, the other nodded.
Until Miaomiao took out the token and stuffed some silver into the two people's hands.
Only then was he let in.
Before entering the palace, she asked Xier to go to the money shop to exchange a lot of small change in case of emergency.
I started making preparations from the moment I entered the palace.
The guards guarding the gate, the eunuchs leading the way, the palace maids...
Originally, she had a token given by the emperor, so she didn't need to give the reward money.
However, the experience of living two lives told her that power cannot buy people's hearts, but money can.
Don't underestimate these palace maids and eunuchs.
This is the largest network of relationships in the palace, and it is very complicated.
Some concubines who had just entered the palace and were ignorant of their place thought they were the real masters and could trample on the palace maids at will.
Don't treat people as human beings.
But when I turned around, I didn't even know how I died.
Miaomiao looked around and asked the princess to send everyone away, leaving only the three of them in the hall.
The Queen's grandmother was betrayed by the people around her.
Every failure makes you wiser. With the lessons learned from the past, you must be on guard.
"What's wrong? Did someone bully you?" Princess Yuqing also noticed that something was wrong with her daughter.
The whole aura is wrong.
She no longer had the sweet and adorable feeling of the past. She had a frown and a stern face since she entered the door.
He doesn't talk, just like a little adult.
The Queen pulled her over to sit down in front of her, held her little hand, and patted her head: "Girl, don't be nervous, tell me slowly, what happened that made you come to the palace alone at this time?"
Miaomiao was a little surprised.
It’s the queen after all, I can guess that.
Only then did she tell Jiang Yunze everything she had seen and heard in the Prajna Temple.
He also asked Liuyun to secretly write down the list of those people.
She handed the list to the Queen: "Grandmother, these are all the names of the court officials who went to the Prajna Temple to plot."
Although there is no evidence that Prince Chen and his court officials formed a clique for personal gain, at least we know who are the spies and who are the fence-sitters.
Only then can we be prepared.
Miaomiao wanted to continue speaking when she saw the Queen grandmother pick up the brush, dip it in cinnabar ink, and draw a few strokes on the list.
She tapped the table with her fingers twice again.
The door creaked open and a eunuch came in.
"Leave it to Prince Jing." The queen instructed.
The old eunuch bowed and took the list, then quickly disappeared at the door.
Too fast!
Like a gust of wind.
I couldn't see the old eunuch's face clearly, I could only vaguely see his gray hair.
It turns out that there are really masters hidden around the emperor and empress. No wonder everyone says that there are so many masters in the palace and people stay away from it.
But what did the Queen mean by what she just drew on the list?
It can’t be…
Miaomiao was so shocked that she couldn't close her mouth.
I hope the Queen Mother is going to kill these people.
Empress Cao pulled her granddaughter to her side and patted her hand gently: "Miaomiao must have heard something?"
Miaomiao came to her senses and told them about their conspiracy to depose the queen, Prince Chen's attempt to murder Concubine Shen and frame the princess, and his attempt to take the opportunity to win over the Shen family.
It also mentioned the emperor's attitude towards the dethronement of the queen, which was that he turned a blind eye and tacitly approved of it.
Of course, I heard all this from King Chen.
Although it didn't come from the emperor's mouth, it was pretty close.
Emperors have always been so heartless since ancient times, it's really heartbreaking.
After saying these words, Miaomiao saw that the Queen's grandmother had a blank expression on her face, and it was impossible to tell whether she was happy or angry.
I'm afraid her heart has already turned cold and calloused, and she can no longer feel pain.
Princess Yuqing slammed her hand on the table, furious: "Father is too heartless. How could he treat mother like this?"
She didn't expect her father to be so stupid.
He did not pursue the matter of Prince Chen poisoning the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess, and even buried the truth.
Prince Chen murdered his siblings and put the blame on his mother. He was also deaf and blind, so he confined his mother to house arrest and took the opportunity to seize her power over the harem.
It’s better not to have such a father.
"Mother, grandmother, there will be an early morning court session tomorrow...you should hurry up," Miaomiao reminded.
Looking at the calm grandmother and the furious princess mother.
She was more anxious than the other two.
At tomorrow's morning court session, the court officials will definitely impeach my grandmother, or even frame her.
He seemed to notice her uneasiness.
Empress Cao pinched her cheek and soothed her gently, "Girl, don't worry. Grandmother is the Empress. Those treacherous ministers and rebels can't touch me."
Miaomiao nodded obediently.
Indeed, she was worrying too much.
There must be many experts like the one around my grandmother, so her life should not be in any danger.
Besides, looking at my grandmother like this, I thought she would become listless and haggard due to being under house arrest.
She was overthinking it.
After all, he is the king of palace fighting, how could he fall so easily?
Looking at my grandmother now, she seems calm and composed, as if she is in control of everything.
Not surprised or angry at all.
Seemingly confident.
She opened her mouth, wanting to ask her grandmother if she had any solution.
Before he could finish his words, a piece of dessert was stuffed into his mouth.
Seeing her standing there in a daze, the Queen smiled and said, "Don't worry about eating. These are all made by me. They are not poisonous."
Now that she no longer has to deal with the trivial matters of the harem, she is now very free every day, either tending to flowers and plants or making snacks.
I feel better than before.
I feel more energetic and calmer.
Instead, Qing'er was restless and walked back and forth in front of her, making her dizzy.
"Don't go away. Come and sit down." Empress Cao frowned slightly. "You are already a mother. How can you be so impatient in front of your child? How unbecoming."
"Mother, how can I not be anxious? Father wants to depose you, and Prince Chen even wants to kill someone and put the blame on me. You bastard, watch me, I will cut off his source of power." Princess Yuqing was so angry that she was about to explode.
As soon as he sat down, he stood up again.
What she is most anxious about right now is the matter of deposing the queen, and time is urgent.
"Mother, while the palace gates are still open, I should go find Cui Yan now and ask him to find a way to suppress those memorials..." Princess Yuqing was halfway through her words when she realized that she had let the cat out of the bag.
She immediately shut up and didn't dare look at her mother.
"Will Cui Yan listen to you?" Queen Cao looked at her meaningfully.
Forget it, I can’t hide it anymore.
Princess Yuqing gritted her teeth and knelt down in front of Queen Cao.
"Mother, actually...actually, there is something I have been hiding from you. Miaomiao is my biological daughter, and her father is not Cao Chong, but Right Prime Minister Cui Yan."
She finished speaking in one breath, lowered her head and waited to be scolded.
"Cough cough cough..." Miaomiao had just taken a bite of a biscuit when she was choked by the princess's words.
Caught off guard.
Mother sold father out in such a sweet way.
