His people, all of them had their own hidden agendas overnight, and he, the emperor, was treated like a joke.
Upon seeing this, Royal Physician Liang kowtowed hurriedly, "Your Majesty, this mansion was purchased with the savings accumulated over the years. It is not ill-gotten gains."
Who would believe this? Even a powerful person might not be able to take advantage of a house worth thousands of gold. He, an imperial doctor, might not be able to accumulate such a fortune even if he saves it for a hundred years.
The money left behind by not eating or drinking was used to buy a house. What Liang Yu said now was that he despised him and thought that the emperor was a fool.
What happened tonight was really debilitating, and he no longer wanted to talk.
With his eyes closed, his emotions were extremely suppressed, and he waved his hand to indicate that Dr. Liang would be taken away, not wanting to hear any of his excuses.
At this time, Yue Concubine was thrown in front of the emperor. The second princess began to cry, which made Yue Concubine tremble in her heart. She looked at the child in Lianrong's arms. She had just given birth to a little motherhood at this time. Her expression was moved, but tangled, and finally Declined again.
Then, as if she had made up her mind, she raised her head again, looked at Lianrong, gritted her teeth and said, "Take this dead girl away!"
The emperor frowned upon hearing this, with anger on his brows. If it weren't for his own upbringing, he would have told him not to do anything to a mother who had just given birth. However, seeing how disgusted and disgusted she was with the princess, he couldn't help but want to lift his foot.
Jin Xin said to Lianrong, "Take the princess down first and ask the wet nurse to feed her."
Lianrong glanced at Yue Concubine angrily, and then left with the child.
"You have come to such an extent that you still don't know how to repent?" the emperor asked coldly.
"I know that I have repented. I regret that I should not have entered the palace. I did the matter of changing the child, and I also arranged the person. It has nothing to do with the Gao family."
The emperor narrowed his eyes and stared at her face.
"My brother doesn't know. He has always been loyal to the emperor, so naturally he will not allow me to do such a thing. I worked hard to conceive, but I gave birth to a useless girl. Will the emperor take me seriously? I will earn a future for myself. I Is there anything wrong?"
Hearing this, Concubine Yu breathed a sigh of relief again. She wanted to speak too, but when she saw the emperor's cold eyes, she immediately shut up.
It's best not to speak.
"Do you think I will believe that you have this ability?"
"I'm pregnant with a dragon fetus. How can it be difficult to find someone to do these things?" Yue Bin hummed.
She is on the verge of death. I hope that her death can exchange the emperor's mercy for the child and treat her daughter better. It would be best if the Gao family could be cleared.
Her mother is still in the Gao family. If something happens to the Gao family, her parents will die.
How could Jin Xin not understand what Yue Concubine was doing, so she said, "This mother-in-law has already done it. It's useless for Yue Concubine to quibble. Your Majesty is wise and will not wrongly accuse anyone, nor will he let anyone off with ulterior motives."
After hearing these words, the emperor's expression became firmer and he said, "The concubine has no virtues and deeds. She deceives the emperor and tries to confuse the royal family. She is like a crazy demon who dethrones all positions, punishes her with death, and punishes her with poisonous wine. "
Hearing this, Yue Concubine resigned herself to her fate and closed her eyes, sitting on the ground dejectedly, sighing in despair.
The atmosphere here is gloomy and heavy, no one dares to breathe. The emperor is also very tired and does not want to stay here any longer.
Then he stood up and said to Gu Zhao, "Dispose of all these people."
After saying that, he left.
The remaining people all had different expressions.
The concubine Yue was brought back to the palace and locked up. She will be executed at noon tomorrow.
The people below were being taken away one after another. Gu Zhao knew what to do with them.
Concubine Yu and Jin Xin were left where they were.
Concubine Yu was still sitting on the ground. When her mood finally calmed down, she raised her eyes and looked at Jin Xin with anger, "Jiang Jinxin, did you arrange everything tonight?"
Jin Xin was also tired. She gently stroked her temples and breathed a sigh of relief. Then she gave Concubine Yu a look and said, "If you don't want others to know, you have to do nothing yourself."
"Don't be complacent. Your goal will not be achieved until the emperor has dealt with it." Concubine Yu stood up angrily, staring at Jin Xin, wishing to kill her.
Cui Gu and the servants around her protected Jin Xin and never gave her a chance to attack Jin Xin again.
Jin Xin just laughed and said indifferently, "Do you think everything is over tonight? If your affair with Gao Mingyao comes to the surface, your fate will be no better than that of Yue Bin."
Concubine Yu was shocked when she heard this, "You... what are you talking about!"
"Am I talking nonsense? There is a stone sculpture in the southwest corner of your palace. It was a birthday gift that Gao Mingyao found for you when you were at the nunnery. Am I right?"
These words made Concubine Yu feel guilty.
It was her first year living in a nunnery after her father was demoted to a commoner and exiled. She was accustomed to enjoying the luxury and wealth. She was suddenly forced to become a nun. She had to do homework, chant sutras, chop wood, and do other things every day. Gao Mingyao was the one who frightened those bullied women. He often visited her, talked to her, and talked about their past.
From the precious jewelry to the wild flowers on the roadside, the stones in the mountains and the leaves on the trees, they talked about poetry and the distance, and their souls were in harmony.
The object of love was the stone sculpture of two birds flying together. Every day after entering the palace, she looked at this stone sculpture and thought about it.
But he didn't expect that Jiang Jinxin would find out about this.
Jin Xin watched her face turn pale and green in turns. She chuckled, said nothing more, and left with the others.
Concubine Yu seemed to have been drained of her strength. She could no longer hold on and really fainted.
But this time, there was no audience.
At this time, in the royal study room, the emperor held his head with both hands, and the atmosphere around him was suppressed. The room was very quiet, except for the sound of the wick of the oil lamp exploding from time to time. He sat there, not knowing what he was thinking.
It was already late at night and he had no sleep at all.
The emperor sent people from the Yuqiansi to assist Gu Zhao. Two hours later, Gu Zhao sent someone to reply. Gao Mingyao refused to be arrested. The two sides fought and accidentally killed the deputy director of the Yuqiansi.
When the emperor heard this, Long Yan was furious and ordered everyone in Earl Weiyuan's Mansion to be killed on the spot if anyone dared to resist.
In the second half of the night, after a fierce battle, the matter finally calmed down, and Gu Zhao returned to the palace to reply.
"Reporting to your Majesty, the Gao family found more than ten pregnant women, three of whom were dead and their stomachs were cut open alive. According to the servants' reply, it was Gao Mingyao who wanted to have a child by caesarean section and chose the healthiest boy. After being sent to the palace, the other one, a girl, was... covered to death."
The emperor's fists clenched and his mood became even more depressed.
There were too many things going on tonight, which stimulated his spirit too much. The emperor was already very tired, with a tired face but no big reaction.
Gu Zhao seemed to be hesitant to speak, and the emperor frowned, "If there is anything else, let me explain it clearly at once."
"This is the account book found in Earl Weiyuan's Mansion. The minister also found a cellar in the manor. It was full of gold, silver, jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings. The entire cellar was filled. The things in the account book were much more than that."
At this moment, the emperor's emotions exploded. He stood up and smashed the inkstone of the table to the ground.
"You're so ambitious, bring it to me!" He slapped the table, his eyes red.
