When Qin Rushuang and Xie Xun went to the palace, the emperor was not present, only the imperial concubine.
Qin Rushuang knew that the imperial concubine wanted to save face for Xie Xun and did not want Xie Xun to leave a bad impression in front of the emperor.
She also breathed a sigh of relief. If the imperial concubine were to handle this matter, her methods would be gentler.
"sit down."
For the first time, the imperial concubine did not greet Qin Rushuang with a smile.
Qin Rushuang and Xie Xun had just sat down when the imperial concubine slapped the table.
"Xun'er, you can't even manage your own back house, how can you manage the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses that your father has given you?"
As soon as the imperial concubine spoke, she did not say who was right or wrong, but only asked Xie Xun first.
"And you," the imperial concubine slowly turned her gaze to Qin Rushuang, "Xun'er is messing around, and you don't even try to persuade her."
Qin Rushuang knew that the imperial concubine did not want to hurt the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, so she operated on Xie Xun.
Faced with the unwarranted scolding, Xie Xun did not dare to get angry and honestly admitted his mistake to the imperial concubine.
"I know I was wrong."
The imperial concubine really had a headache. She never thought that a pregnant concubine would turn the back house of the palace upside down so much.
If she was the only one who knew about this matter, it would be easier to deal with it. If Qin Rushuang really didn't like Qin Fang, it would be better to just deal with the person.
But by chance, General Qin, who didn't know the importance of the matter, brought this matter directly to the emperor.
In recent years, as the emperor got older, he paid more and more attention to his children.
Before coming, he made it clear to her that if this concubine really did not show her pregnancy after five months, she would be executed in a hurry.
But we cannot directly deny the possibility that there is an imperial heir in her belly. In the past few months, she still has to take good care of him.
The imperial concubine sighed softly and told them the emperor's intention.
"Shuang'er, don't think too much."
Qin Rushuang stood up after hearing the words, knelt down and saluted: "Mother, I know I was wrong about this matter, and now I have to trouble my mother to clean up the mess for me. It's true that when I first learned about that incident, I was too angry.
, I couldn’t control my emotions for a while.”
The imperial concubine touched her head: "Get up, my mother and concubine know it. Originally, if this matter had not been brought to the emperor, my mother and concubine would have made the decision to help you deal with it. But now that the emperor also knows it, you should be patient for the time being."
Bar."
Qin Rushuang lowered her eyes. Sure enough, Aunt Liu must have convinced her father to report the matter to the emperor.
Qin Fanghao also knew that the imperial concubine favored him, and only the emperor who valued his children could save her.
Qin Rushuang nodded, "I'm sorry to trouble my mother and concubine this time. After I go back, I will put Qin Fanghao under house arrest in a side courtyard and won't let her get close to anyone. We'll see what happens in five months."
The imperial concubine waved her hand: "No. There are people coming and going in the palace. Now that this matter has been spread, I believe you will not do such unfounded things. I don't look at the personal or physical evidence now. I only look at the five
Results after a few months.”
"In this case, the mother-in-law makes the decision and sends Qin Fanghao to a nunnery in the east of the city to recuperate for five months."
Qin Rushuang raised her head in surprise: "How could the mother-in-law suddenly have such an idea?"
The imperial concubine sighed, "You child... I'm worried about the child in your belly. If Qin Fang is in front of you every day, can you still take good care of the baby? I must be worried about it all the time. One more thing, in the mansion
After all, people are mixed, and I'm worried that she might do something bad to you under impulse, so it's better to send her away."
When Qin Rushuang heard what the imperial concubine said, she felt a little wary in her heart.
Something's wrong, something's wrong.
The imperial concubine is not a person who worships Buddha, so how could she suddenly think of sending Qin Fanghao to a nunnery?
Although the imperial concubine was right, Xie Xun might be soft-hearted in the palace, but at least under her nose, she could always think of ways to keep Qin Fang away from Xie Xun.
But if someone leaves the palace, the sky is high and the road is far away, and he will not be able to fully control Qin Fanghao's every move.
Qin Rushuang naturally wanted to stop it, but now the imperial concubine has made concessions. Not only did she not blame Qin Rushuang for dealing with Qin Fanghao privately, but she also gave Qin Rushuang a way to step down.
Qin Rushuang can't make any other demands today, as that would make her seem to be pushing too far.
So Qin Rushuang agreed.
"My son, I know, it's all up to my mother and concubine to make the decision. It's just my father's side. I would like to ask my mother and concubine to speak kindly so that the prince doesn't lose face in front of his father."
The imperial concubine looked at Qin Rushuang with even more satisfaction: "Okay, my concubine will know that you are a general person and you still care about Xun'er when you have been wronged."
After speaking, he glared at Xie Xun: "Such a good wife, please watch out for me. You must never do anything to make Shuang'er sad in the future."
Xie Xun naturally nodded.
In order to prevent the imperial concubine from noticing the abnormality between the two of them, Qin Rushuang left the palace with Xie Xun.
After leaving the palace gate, Qin Rushuang immediately shook off Xie Xun and returned home first.
After Qin Rushuang left, an inconspicuous homing pigeon flew out from the palace and flew all the way to Prince Huai's Mansion.
In the side yard, Qiu Ning took off the note from the pigeon's hind leg and learned the final outcome of the matter.
Qin Fang stood beside her anxiously, "Miss Qiuning, how are you?"
After reading the letter, Qiu Ning said to her: "Everything is going as planned. By the way, you must not anger the prince again in the past few days. Try to win the prince's favor so that he can personally take care of you when you leave the house.
You send it away."
Qin Fanghao nodded, his eyes shining with determination.
This is her last chance.
When Qin Rushuang returned to the palace, before she had time to rest, her servants came to ask her for instructions.
It was a little maid who came. Qin Rushuang took a closer look. Isn't this the little maid who was waiting beside Su Meiren?
"Princess, please save my master. My master and Miss Qin are quarreling!"
Qin Rushuang was a little surprised when she heard what the little maid said.
Because the whole family committed a crime, the Sumerians beheaded them and exiled them. Only her daughter was left in Kyoto.
After marrying into the prince's palace, she was very low-key and never stood out. Even Gu Meiren and Zhong Meiren were eager to try and show their faces in front of the prince. However, this Su Meiren remained silent and acted very low-key.
How could such a person get into a quarrel with Qin Fanghao who was imprisoned in the side courtyard?
After listening to the little maid's explanation, Qin Rushuang realized that Su Meiren was passing by the side courtyard today and was suddenly called in by Qin Fanghao. She didn't want to go in. She didn't know what Qin Fanghao said, but Su Meiren actually went in.
I don’t know what the two said after that, and they started to quarrel.
"Do you know why your master and Miss Qin quarreled?"
The little maid looked like she had never seen the world, and said timidly: "Slave... I don't know, I didn't follow you in."
Thinking that Su Meiren had kept a very low profile since she entered the palace and had never caused any trouble for herself, Qin Rushuang said, "That's all, I'll go take a look with you."
