Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife - Chapter 488

[Chapter 488]

The emperor was furious, and knelt on the ground above the golden hall.

“I don’t care how you fight with each other on weekdays. Now, during the natural disaster, the people are still crying. If anyone dares to act at this time, no matter who it is, I will chop off your hands! Do you understand?”

“My son (Chen, etc.) understands, please calm down your anger.”

“The Minister of the Household, immediately draw up the articles of association and hand them over as a booklet. From now on, we will start to cut the proportions and reduce the various expenses in the palace. Except for Princess Yide, the rest of the princes, concubines, and officials will be classified according to their grades. Descending in order…”

This court meeting lasted for more than two hours. After returning to the mansion, King Ling and King Jin lost a lot of temper. Then, while ordering the mansion to reduce the number of cases, they summoned their confidants to discuss the next regulations.

However, before they could discuss the result, Su Jin, who was in the Shuntian Palace prison, suddenly confessed, saying that he knew the inside story of the river burst, saying that the river burst was not a natural disaster, but that someone in Kyoto wanted to destroy it. The evidence of the salt tax deficit case deliberately sank the ship carrying the salt tax and tax silver on the Linjiang River. In order to prevent people from going to the river to salvage the sunken ship and official silver, they secretly blew up the river embankment and completely destroyed the evidence.

As soon as these words came out, Shen Binghuai was shocked into a cold sweat, and regardless of how late it was, he immediately entered the palace to face the saint.

King Jin was very angry when he heard the news, and kept pacing back and forth in the study: “That Su Jin, can’t you find a way to shut her up?”

The confidant on the side shook his head in embarrassment: “The poisoned killing of Zou Min and Yang Lian in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment has already provoked the emperor’s anger and ordered the Ministry of Punishment to conduct a thorough investigation. Su Jin was not imprisoned in the Ministry of Punishment in order to prevent anyone from being silenced. Shuntian House belongs to Shen Binghuai. The site was cleaned up extremely cleanly by him, and for Su Jin, an important witness, he sent people to guard it day and night, and he couldn’t find a space at all.”

King Jin pursed his lips slightly, and sighed deeply: “I knew that Jiangnan Yanzheng was a big pit, but I couldn’t resist the temptation to jump down, and now I want to climb out, I can only pull other people to cushion it. Under his feet, he kept an eye on King Ling’s every move, and he must not have the opportunity to slander in front of his father. In addition, the prefect of Linjiang City was ordered to personally confirm the life and death of King Yue. After the news was confirmed, it was immediately passed on to this king. There can be no delay. The other is keeping an eye on King Yu and trying to disrupt his disaster relief.”

“Yes, my lord.”

King Jin picked up a glass of wine from the small table on one side, put it on his lips and took a sip, the clear aroma of wine lingered in his tongue, making him unable to help narrow his eyes: “As long as King Jin can’t deliver disaster relief smoothly , this king can help the father and emperor to share the worries in time, grab this credit, and prepare a generous gift to send to the palace of the long princess Yide. The long princess treats the king very much, and now the life and death of the fourth brother is unknown. This imperial brother should take care of his elders for him.”

“Yes, the slave will do it now.”

Officials with disaster relief experience gathered together in the Ministry of Personnel Department to formulate the regulations for this disaster relief, and then reported it to the emperor. After the emperor read it, he called King Yu to him, and talked to him carefully for an hour before letting him set off and rush out of the capital to Linjiang City.

When King Yu was in the palace, he sent his maid-in-law to Qinfang Garden to visit Mu Yunyao, thinking that she should know the news by now, and she was not sure what words or letters she would have. She wanted to bring it to King Yue, But after he left the palace, he saw the inner servant who went to inquire, but learned that after arriving at Qinfang Garden, he never saw Mu Yunyao’s face.

King Yu thought for a while, then shook his head slightly, without further delay, he got on his horse and quickly galloped out of Beijing with his hands.

It took six days before and after to arrange the disaster relief work properly. After Princess Yide entered the palace, she looked at the tired emperor, and couldn’t help but persuade softly: “The emperor’s body is not as good as before, but he can’t. Isn’t this kind of hard work day and night, with so many officials under him, just to share the emperor’s worries at this time?”

“Sister Huang, about Jun Yue…”

Princess Yide turned her head to look at Xu Li: “Remove the tea from the emperor’s hand and replace it with some soup that nourishes the body.”

“Yes, Your Royal Highness.”

“Your Majesty, I’ve heard about Jun Yue, but this kid Jiren has his own good looks, and I believe he’ll be fine.”

The emperor was silent for a while without making a sound. After Xu Li served the soup, he slowly retreated.

After a long time, the emperor finally spoke, and there was a choked expression in his words: “Sister Huang, ever since I found out about Jun Yue’s accident, my heart has not been put down, if he really… wait for me a hundred years later, what should I do? How to face the queen… Rouer will definitely blame me, and I also want to understand a lot. I used to treat him so coldly because of the guilt in my heart. It really shouldn’t be… How can I be so confused, How can you be worthy of Rouer…”

Princess Yide looked at the emperor with red eyes. He had white hair on his temples, and now he looked sad and annoyed, and he completely lost his usual imperial majesty. What happened to the queen at the beginning caused a great blow to the emperor. He recuperated in the palace for three consecutive months before struggling to support him to go to court again.

He and Empress Wei Rou are a young husband and wife. No matter how poor the emperor was at the time, the Empress was devoted to him, and even took her own life for him in the end…

“Emperor, Rou’er has the most docile character. She understands the pain in your heart, so she won’t blame you.”

“Sister Huang, after this incident, I realized that I am really old. If Jun Yue can return safely this time, I will definitely make up for him.”

“Well, don’t worry, Jun Yue will definitely come back safely because of your father’s concern.”

The emperor broke away from his guilt and saw the eldest princess’ expression with a hint of sadness, and couldn’t help but ask: “Imperial sister, your face is not good, but your body is not feeling well?”

“I’m fine, but Yao’er…” Princess Yide sighed deeply, “Yao’er left Beijing and went to Linjiang City to find Yue Wang.”

“What?” The emperor frowned subconsciously, “At the beginning, I didn’t know Yun Yao’s identity, so I didn’t object to her and Jun Yue, but now…”

Princess Yide sighed: “The emperor is also a visitor, and you should know that emotional matters are the most difficult to control, just like you and Rouer…”

Thinking of the empress, the emperor’s eyebrows stretched out again, but he still disapproved: “Emperor sister, but they are in the wrong generation.”

“Although they are nominally uncles and nieces, they are actually one point further apart by blood than those cousins who got married, but there is a gap in seniority, which makes people feel extra different. Jun Yue The child is suffering, if one day I know the truth of the year… I feel sad when I think about it, so when I am an aunt, I can’t help but want to love him more.” Now that Yun Yao has firmed her mind, she does this The grandmother had to find a way to help her remove the biggest obstacle. As long as the emperor didn’t care about their relationship, others would have no right to intervene.
