The imperial physician looked embarrassed after the diagnosis.
"Tell the truth!"
"Your Majesty, Princess Pingyang is basically cured of the poison, but it seems she has been consuming some incompatible foods for many years, which has not only caused infertility but also severely damaged her body. Now she can only slowly recuperate."
"What a good prince consort! Tao Congwen, how do you explain this?"
"Your Majesty, I really don't understand. Since we got married, the princess and I have always been in love. How could I do such a thing?"
"Always loving, huh!"
Qin Minghao threw some papers on his head
There was a note from the King of Chu, and the others were letters he wrote to Ming.
He had been afraid since he met the emperor. Now seeing these letters, there was nothing he didn't understand. The emperor must have found out everything about him.
But how did the emperor find out?
[No, these were obtained from Ming. Damn it, she actually hid such an important thing in her hands. The note clearly said to be burned, so how did she get it?
Damn, this bitch has always been on guard against me. She's still not at ease even after knowing my affairs, and she's not satisfied even after entering his backyard. She even hides important evidence. I've been completely harmed by her!
"Is it the love that you had with Ming before you proposed to marry the princess? Is it the love that you constantly gave the princess incompatible medicine and food? Or is it the love that goes to the point of hurting the princess while you invited your old lover into the mansion to bear you a son?"
"Your Majesty, I didn't intentionally deceive the princess. It was that bitch Ming who took a fancy to me and deliberately seduced me. Although I had some interactions with her, I don't like her as a person.
Ever since I married the princess, I have wanted to put an end to her obsession. However, Ming has always disagreed. Even though the marriage has been arranged, she still insists on pestering me and threatens to tell the princess if I don't listen to her.
I was afraid that the princess would be upset, so I had no choice but to listen to her. Princess, please believe me, I am truly sincere to you and my love for you has never changed."
Even at this time, he still tried to take advantage of the princess's affection for him and plead for him.
In the past, the princess would have believed it as soon as she heard it, and even said that the prince consort was wronged. But now, looking at the prince consort's seemingly affectionate eyes, she only felt irony. How could she be so blind that she didn't realize what kind of person he was in twenty years?
Once the filter was broken, the more she looked at him, the more disgusted she became. Now that the emperor was in charge, there was no need for her to intervene. She turned away in disgust, not wanting to look at his fake face.
Ming sneered on the side. She was doomed to die at this point. It was obvious that she had hidden those things in the makeup box.
What’s funny is that Tao Congwen still wants to put the blame on her without even looking at what she left behind, which is not just these few photos.
"You really care about Pingyang. Were those incompatible drugs also used by Ming Shi? Was it her fault that the princess was ill? Was it her fault that she gave false testimony to frame the loyal minister? Humph? Tell me!"
"Prince~Princess~"
He really couldn't find an excuse to explain, and could only hope that Pingyang would speak up for him.
As long as Pingyang speaks up, the emperor will not sentence him to death, and he still has a chance.
As for betraying the King of Chu, there is no need to betray him, the emperor knows everything.
At this time, Bai Zhiyue stood beside the princess, wrote down the letter that had not been sent, the jade pendant, and what Huamei had told her, and took the opportunity to give it to Nanny Tian, indicating that she should give it to the emperor.
"Here are some letters for your inspection, Your Majesty."
The emperor took it and looked at it. He saw that the two of them had discussed how to get rid of the fiancé, how to kill Zu Ming's grandparents, and how to add Ming's name to the list of potential concubines. Together with the several ministers he had secretly murdered, it was enough to sentence Tao Wenyuan to death.
The last one is interesting. It is actually a love letter written by another person to Ming.
Bai Zhiyue's explanation of the jade pendant and Ming
"Tao Wenyuan, you're nothing special. Do you think it feels good to raise someone else's son?"
When these words were spoken, Ming was shocked. Although one of those letters was from that man, it only meant that he had loved her. How could the matter of her eldest son be exposed?
Tao Wenyuan was stunned. What do you mean someone else's son?
The emperor kindly showed him the jade pendant and the man's letter, and told Tao Wenyuan what Bai Zhiyue had written.
After hearing this, he no longer cared about etiquette and crawled over to beat Ming.
"You bitch, you hurt me, the princess, and gave me a bastard to raise. I'm going to beat you to death, you bitch!"
Ming didn't let him and kept scratching and tearing it.
"It's ridiculous. What do you mean by harming you? We were in love and willing to do it. You hooked up with the princess and wanted to regret it, but I lost my virginity and couldn't get married. If I hadn't caught you, you would have thrown me aside long ago. Ha, I'm harming you!
There's no way to even talk about harming the princess. The princess had already been harmed by you before I even entered the palace. You still want to blame me, but it depends on whether the emperor and the princess believe it or not. I thought the princess would be easily fooled by you like before.
Don't you see how you are now? You're a dog man who eats gigolos and then turns against me, and you have the nerve to criticize me!"
"Tell me who that wild man is. If you don't tell me, I'll strangle Feng'er to death in front of you. Believe it or not."
Ming closed his eyes
"Your Majesty! I swear that although I have been cursing the princess for a long time, today is the first and only time I have taken action. Tao Wenyuan has colluded with the King of Chu, the Noble Concubine, and the Duke of Zhenguo to plot against the princess and the emperor, and now he is even trying to murder the prince. I can tell you all this, and I only ask Your Majesty to spare my son Zhao Jin's life.
I am a bad woman, but his father died in battle at the border, and Jin'er is his only descendant. Jin'er is innocent."
"Ming Shi, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Tao Wenyuan regretted it so much. He should have strangled her to death instead of leaving her mouth open.
The emperor waved his hand, and the feathered guards went up and pinned Tao Wenyuan to the ground.
"You said they were going to murder my son!"
"Yes, they say that the emperor's reputation is growing, so this is not the best strategy. They think it's better to kill you first and then make plans later."
"It's absolutely lawless! This is treason and regicide!"
Qin Minghao was really angry. He actually wanted to cut off his descendants. What did this have to do with killing him?
"Pingyang?"
"Brother, I agree!"
Princess Pingyang stood up and said that at least Ming was a good mother.
"Okay, I can agree to this, but you must explain their crimes clearly."
"I will tell the Emperor everything I know."
"Come here, Tao Wenyuan plotted to murder the princess, participated in a rebellion, framed loyal officials, and killed innocent people for personal gain. He will be thrown into the Heavenly Prison and executed after trial."
"All adult men in the Mighty General's Mansion are imprisoned and awaiting conviction."
"Arrest the Duke of Chu and send him to the Dali Temple for interrogation by the Minister of Justice, the Dali Temple Minister, and the old Rui Prince."
"Send the imperial guards to surround the Prince of Chu's and the Duke of Zhenguo's mansions. No one is allowed to enter or leave. Wait for your punishment. Anyone who disobeys will be executed immediately."
Imperial decrees were issued one after another, and people continued to carry them out.
A spring banquet first turned into a murder scene, and then developed in an extreme direction that no one had expected, and finally became a case of treason.
