When the emperor saw Su Peisheng coming back in a hurry, he knew something was wrong.
Based on her understanding of Yi Xiu, she would not die so quickly.
"She refuses?"
"No, but she wants to see you."
Su Peisheng said carefully: "She said she knew the assassin on New Year's Eve."
The emperor frowned when he heard Su Peisheng's words.
It is almost certain that the assassin was sent by the Queen Mother.
I just don’t have conclusive evidence.
If Yi Xiu could say such a thing at this time, there must be evidence.
"Bring her here."
The emperor thought for a while and still wanted to hear what she had to say.
Su Peisheng didn't dare to waste time and hurried to bring Yi Xiu over.
Yixiu was taken to Yangxin Hall, and then everyone in the hall went out.
"What do you want to say to me?"
The emperor looked at Yi Xiu and said, "If it weren't for Chun Yuan, you would not be alive long ago."
"Your Majesty, do you still remember when I entered the palace?"
Yi Xiu looked at the emperor and suddenly said: "Do you still remember that it was my concubine who was pregnant with your child first? Sister, she just came into the house to take care of my concubine."
At this time, Yixiu called herself my concubine again.
"Now if you see that I only want to talk about the past, then there is no need to speak, I don't want to hear it."
The emperor didn't want to hear anything about Chun Yuan from Yi Xiu.
"You should know what I want to know."
Seeing that this move was of no use to the emperor, Yi Xiu's expression changed. He still had the emotion of recalling the past.
"I can tell you, how can the emperor exchange the evidence for my concubine?"
How could Yi Xiu not be smart? She knew what was best for herself.
If he had told the story first, then the emperor could still kill him when he turned around.
Therefore, she wanted to negotiate terms with the emperor.
"You dare to negotiate terms with me?"
The emperor asked in disbelief.
"At worst, I will die, but the life of the emperor and the lives of the emperor's children are much more valuable than my concubine's."
Yi Xiu laughed loudly: "I think the emperor also knows who wants to harm your legitimate son, but there is no evidence."
But Yi Xiu underestimated the emperor's cruelty. When the emperor heard Yi Xiu's laughter, he said with a serious face: "If you want to keep a whole body and ensure your dignity after death, you'd better not tell me these things. useless."
"Do you think I still care about this now?"
Yi Xiu was not as fragile as the emperor thought: "My concubines are gone, so what else do you want to do after death?"
"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is here."
Su Peisheng's voice came from outside: "The Queen Mother and her men are going to break in."
"Your Majesty, you don't have much time."
Why the Queen Mother came at this time, and why she wanted to break into the palace, her purpose was self-evident.
"what do you want?"
At this time, the emperor didn't think much about it.
"I only want a noble man to spend the rest of my life safely in the palace."
Yixiu spoke his request quickly.
"I agree, but if your news is untrue, I have ten thousand ways to have your whole family be buried with you."
After the emperor finished speaking, he shouted outside: "Let the Queen Mother come in."
As soon as Su Peisheng heard the emperor's words, he quickly asked the guards to let the queen mother in.
"What is the emperor going to do with so many people at this time?"
The emperor looked at the Queen Mother coming in, his expression was not very good.
The Queen Mother just glanced at the Emperor, and then looked at Yi Xiu.
"The Ai family was kind enough to take you in and let you stay in Shoukang Palace. Why did you come out privately? Did you even hit Concubine An?"
When Yi Xiu was locked up, the Queen Mother was not too anxious.
Especially when the Queen Mother heard that Yi Xiu had been ordered to commit suicide, she didn't want to cause trouble and just let her die in the first place.
But he didn't expect that his people would send a message back soon, saying that Yi Xiu had been taken to the Yangxin Hall.
If the emperor could bring a dying person over, then Yi Xiu must have said something that the emperor cared about.
Now the only thing that can impress the emperor is New Year's Eve.
The Queen Mother thought of this and quickly brought people over.
The Queen Mother also thought about the possibility that the Emperor would not let her in, so she even brought the intruders with her.
Anyway, the person who took the blame in the end was Yi Xiu, and he had already thought of his explanation.
In short, Yi Xiu cannot be allowed to say anything detrimental to him.
The emperor smiled after listening to the Queen Mother's words: "The emperor's mother is worried too much. An's mother and daughter are safe and gave birth to the fifth princess. As for Yiguiren,"
The emperor said and glanced at Yi Xiu: "I sent her here."
"Emperor, what are you talking about?"
The Queen Mother listened to the emperor's words and scolded her: "She is a waste queen."
"The Queen still knows that she is a waste queen."
The emperor also had anger on his face after listening to the Queen Mother's words: "When the Queen Mother brought her back to Shoukang Palace, did she ever think that she was a deposed queen?"
The Queen Mother was choked by the Emperor and was slightly stunned for a moment, but she reacted immediately.
"Emperor, what is your attitude?"
The Queen Mother immediately changed her face and began to accuse the Emperor: "The Ai family did this all for the sake of the Emperor. Although she is a deposed queen, if she really went to the cold palace, then everyone in the world would say you are cold and cold. Can be treated like this.”
"Son, thank you, Queen Mother, for your kindness."
The emperor said in a serious tone: "My son has a heart, so he can't bear her to spend the rest of her life in the cold palace, so he specially gave her a noble position so that she can spend the rest of her life safely in the palace."
"you...."
After listening to the emperor's words, the Queen Mother understood that the emperor and Yi Xiu had probably reached a deal.
It's better to repair it than to keep it.
"I'm afraid the emperor has forgotten how she harmed Chun Yuan and how she harmed so many of your children."
Of course the emperor had not forgotten it, but seeing the Queen Mother in such a hurry made him even more determined to keep Yi Xiu.
"My son has not forgotten anything, but Yi Xiu Ji Jing said that for the rest of her life she will be vegetarian and worship Buddha to atone for her sins. My son is willing to believe it."
After the emperor finished speaking, he didn't wait for the Queen Mother to say anything, and then said: "Su Peisheng, Xiaoyu Sixth Palace, will immediately grant the Ulanara family a suitable noble and live in Chuxiu Palace."
"yes."
Su Peisheng took one look at the Queen Mother's face and hurried out.
"Since the emperor has already thought about it, the Ai family has nothing to say."
The Queen Mother's face was dark, she glanced at Yi Xiu and left.
After the Queen Mother left, the Emperor looked at Yi Xiu and said, "Why is the Queen Mother so anxious to take you back? I think you understand in your heart. Next, you have to bring out all the evidence you know. Otherwise, even if I If you do nothing, the Queen Mother will not let you go."
"Concubine understands."
Looking at the Queen Mother's appearance just now, Yi Xiu already understood that the Queen Mother would definitely not be able to predict the coming days. And you have to be on guard at all times.
"I once heard the Queen Mother say that the Emperor caught one of the assassins."
"But the person he identified was Prince Guo."
