Chapter 871 (1/2)
”No! None of them
Emperor Wende was resolute.
It doesn't matter who asks.
Are the concubines crying outside the gate of Xingqing palace?
I'm sorry, Emperor Wende has a heart of stone. It's useless to cry so beautiful.
The ministers tried to tell the truth and move them with emotion.
Ha ha!
Vander shook his eyes and understood.
If you dare to reach out, you must have the consciousness of being cut off.
All the courtiers who committed the crime were arrested.
Those who dare to pass news outside the palace are not so lucky. Once the charges are confirmed, they are executed directly.
A corpse was carried out of the palace and buried in a mass grave.
The harem is full of fear and danger.
Even the concubines of the Imperial Palace have to be human with their tails in their hands.
Just two days ago, a talented person died. No one wanted to follow suit.
Liu Yi, the fourth prince, was just a job and was idle at home.
He was in a better position to enter the palace as usual.
Weiyang palace, mother and son meet.
Liu Yi, the fourth prince, asked with concern, ”is the empress mother OK?”
Empress Pei was lying on the couch of arhat, listless.
She shook her head and complained, ”people in the harem are in danger. What's good about this palace. The more careful the punishment department is, the more they issue, they even dare to investigate the Weiyang palace. ”
”The empress mother can bear with it, and when the wind is over, it will be all right.”
”I understand this. This palace just does not resent the arrogant attitude of the Department of punishment. ”
Empress Pei put the tea cup on the table and made a sound.
She asked the fourth Prince Liu Yi, ”did you visit your father?”
Liu Yi, the fourth prince, nodded, ”my son goes to Xingqing palace to see you, but the father does not want to see his son.”
Pei empress frown, ”your father emperor is really the older the more confused.”
”Mother, be careful.”
Empress Pei said casually, ”even in front of your father, this palace will say that about him. It's a fact that when you get older, you are no longer as smart as you were in your early years. Your father should have made you take on more responsibilities. ”
Fourth Prince Liu Yi frowned, ”please speak carefully!”
”Hum! What are you afraid of? This palace is not wrong
Fourth Prince Liu Yi rubbed his eyebrows. ”Mother, now she is not in the palace. She can't say anything.”
”OK, OK, this palace is just complaining. Did your elder brother Liu Zhao write back? ”
”I have to ask my sister-in-law. Maybe my sister-in-law has received a letter from my elder brother. ”
”This unfilial son.” Pei empress is angry, ”this palace raises him, the result is not even received a letter.”
Fourth Prince Liu Yi was silent.
He would not speak ill of Liu Zhao, but he would not excuse Liu Zhao.
It's really inappropriate for Liu Zhao not to write to the palace.
Empress Pei scolded Liu Zhao and was in a better mood.
”I heard that your sister-in-law has moved back to the prince's house with her children.”
”Exactly
”Did you say when the housewarming party will be held?”
”It's to wait until the elder brother returns to Beijing.”
”When Liu Zhao returns to Beijing, the day lily will be cold. There will be a housewarming party. She is also a fool. Liu Zhao is now in the northwest and needs the support of the courtiers. The palace thought that she was moving back to the prince's house at this time to hold a housewarming banquet and to win over Liu Zhao's relationship. She turned out to be too disappointing
Empress Pei scolded Gu Jiu again.
Scold Gu Jiu, do not know for Liu Zhao's consideration, do not know to seize the opportunity.
When empress Pei finished scolding, the fourth prince, Liu shancai, said, ”the relationship between the elder brother and the ministers in the imperial court is not good. Even if the elder sister-in-law holds a housewarming banquet, the wives of civil and military officials may not come to the banquet. It's better not to be embarrassed than to be refused
”Ridiculous!” Empress Pei scolded Liu Yi.
”In addition to civil servants and military generals, don't Royal relatives and aristocratic families need to receive contact? Your father is angry, but he can't stop your sister-in-law from holding a housewarming party. No, we will arrange someone to invite your sister-in-law into the palace. ”
”Mother, wait a minute.” Liu Yi stopped empress Pei, ”elder brother is in the northwest, sister-in-law holds a high-profile banquet, I'm afraid it's not appropriate.”
Empress Pei asked angrily, ”what's wrong? You always speak for her. Did you and Xiao qin'er take advantage of her? ”
Liu Yi quickly denied that ”the son is thinking about big brother. After the mother thought about it, the father and the emperor were not at ease about the elder brother. At this time, the elder sister-in-law put on a banquet and attracted many relations, which would certainly cause his dissatisfaction. In case the father thinks too much and implicates the elder brother in the northwest, what to do? Big brother won this opportunity very hard. We can't give up all our previous achievements and let others take advantage of it. ”
Empress Pei frowned and pondered, ”the second one has been put into Zongzheng temple. At present, he certainly has no chance to make trouble.”
”But there are three brothers, five and six. Princess Rhode has been quiet and steady for years. When it comes to the critical moment, it may not be without means. ”Empress Pei snorted coldly, ”Princess Rhode wants to fight for the opportunity for the fifth, but I have to see whether this palace agrees or not. The third biological mother died early, because of her miserable life and poisoning, your father and Emperor are very tolerant to him. The third, like the second, is a restless master. If he jumps up and down, he may have succeeded. ”
”So the son said that it was good for the elder brother that the elder sister-in-law didn't hold a housewarming dinner at this time.”
