"Concubine Rong entered the palace ambitiously, thinking that she could succeed Empress Xian Shen and become the new empress, but she didn't expect that the Queen Mother had already made a decision for the emperor to marry the legitimate daughter of the old King Zhongshan as the new empress. Concubine Rong's plan failed and she entered the palace. Palace, starting from the concubine position, every step has been difficult, and finally she can become one of the four concubines, how can she let go?"
Wen Lan said, "At this time, she remembered that the poison she gave to Queen Shen, although it was toxic, was actually an excellent labor-inducing drug.
"So, she took this poison when the little prince in her belly was only six months old, and after giving birth to a premature little prince with congenital defects, she took the antidote."
What happened after that became known to everyone.
A year later, the little prince died.
It's just that Concubine Shu was unlucky at that time and happened to meet her, so she was thrown into the cold palace and stayed there for five years.
If Emperor Xuanping hadn't thought of her once and went to the cold palace to find her while drunk, she would have become pregnant with Princess Lingfu again... After Princess Lingfu was born, and the young master concluded that she was the little lucky star, this concubine might have been pregnant at this time. Staying in the cold palace.
Wen Lan would deliberately ask Shen Qingrong if his father Shen Mofeng also knew about this, because Yu Jiujiu suspected that he knew it.
Otherwise, I would not have insisted on begging the emperor in the court to not investigate the real cause of the little prince's death.
His eldest daughter was killed by his younger daughter.
The younger daughter also used the little prince in her belly who should never have been born to frame other concubines. If the poison was found, the cause of Queen Shen's death would inevitably be found out again.
When the time comes, this series of events will be the catastrophe for their Shen family!
It's a pity that no matter how prepared Shen Mo Feng is, he can't stop the people from Duke Shen's mansion from committing suicide.
A corruption case ended up costing the entire Shen Guogong Mansion!
Photographed by Shen Qingrong out of fear of Yu Jiu Jiu, she explained everything honestly.
Wen Lan had already prepared everything.
Write the confession and have Shen Qingrong sign it.
Shen Qingrong cried and pressed his fingerprints.
At the end, seeing Wen Lan about to leave, he belatedly asked: "Will my father be implicated in this? He didn't do anything..."
Wen Lan glanced at him: "How to deal with this matter depends on the wishes of the emperor and the queen mother!"
After saying that, he walked out of the prison of the Criminal Department.
The next day, this confession appeared on Emperor Xuanping's desk.
After he read all the content, he became furious like never before!
"Wen Qing, is what is written here true?"
"Your Majesty, Wei Chen does not dare to falsify. What is written on this is all written by Shen Qingrong himself, and Wei Chen has not changed a word."
"That's unreasonable!"
Emperor Xuanping punched the table hard, "Concubine Rong has such a vicious mind! What a deep calculation! Not only did she poison my queen to death, she also framed Concubine Shu, leaving my little Jiu'er in the cold palace. After she was born, it took three years of hard life! The emperor actually knew the truth and didn’t report it, and even deliberately concealed everything for her! What a wolf-hearted father and daughter! My little Jiuer! I have suffered a lot!"
Wen Lan was really surprised by Emperor Xuanping's reaction.
He couldn't help but think of what Yu Jiujiu had told him beforehand: "My father values love and justice and is soft-hearted. If he finds out what Concubine Rong and Shen Mo Feng did, he will definitely be sad. When the time comes, you have to coax him well." !”
Look at Emperor Xuanping in front of him again, his eyes full of annoyance...
Isn't this half as sad as she said?
It’s all obviously anger!
Moreover, this anger is still because I feel sorry for her, the little princess...
Wen Lan was very sure that Emperor Xuanping didn't need to be coaxed at all at this time. He was probably thinking only about how to coax his little daughter who had suffered a lot since childhood.
"Princess Lingfu and Concubine Shu did suffer a lot during those years in the cold palace. Alas, Princess Lingfu is a lucky star, but because of the poor conditions in the cold palace, her nature was suppressed.
"If she had been born early under the emperor's expectations and grown up under the emperor's love and care, perhaps her talent would have awakened early, and then our country in Great Xia would not have had those two years of drought and let the people suffer in vain.
Suffer!"
Wen Lan said immediately.
In his words, he very rudely attributed the severe drought of those two years to Concubine Rong.
In prison before, Shen Qingrong kept saying that Shen Mofeng had done nothing.
Yes, he did not follow his youngest daughter Rong Fei to kill his eldest daughter.
But he didn't report it when he knew it, and allowed Concubine Rong to make mistakes!
This is also a crime!
"What Aiqing said is absolutely true!" After hearing this, Emperor Xuanping became even more angry and felt even more sorry for his little Jiu'er!
But at this time, he still retained some of the rationality that an emperor should have.
He immediately asked, "Is there any evidence?"
Wen Lan answered honestly: "In addition to Shen Qingrong's testimony, there is also the testimony of the Lou family. One is the testimony of the former concubine of Duke Shen's family, the Lou family. She personally took the poison that poisoned Queen Shen from the Lou family.
"There is also Lou He, Lou's cousin, who can testify that this is indeed the case.
"Except for the two of them, the Lou family once deliberately murdered Princess Lingfu in Xinzhou Mansion. At that time, they captured several Jianghu people raised by the Lou family. Some of them could confirm that the poison came from his senior sister, but he, the senior sister,
Has been dead for many years.
"But indeed, the evidence is conclusive. Now, all we have to do is find out whether the poison is still in Concubine Rong's hands, and Concubine Rong pleads guilty, and Shen Mofeng pleads guilty."
Emperor Xuanping looked very ugly after hearing this.
This Lou family is the eldest concubine of Duke Shen’s palace, and she actually wants to kill Xiao Jiuer!
"Back then, Queen Xian Shen didn't know she was poisoned, so she ruthlessly asked Jin'er, Yue'er, and Ling'er to leave the capital just because she resented me. I can understand her feelings. I was incompetent and couldn't protect my wife and children.
"
Emperor Xuanping said in a deep tone, "But Queen Shen first trusted her mother's family, but she didn't expect that the Shen family had never treated her and my children well. Shen Mofeng, as the grandfather of Jin'er and the others, disliked Yue'er and Ling.
As twins, they were not allowed to stay in Beijing and were sent directly to Xinzhou Prefecture...
"Now that I think about it, I know that Duke Shen's Mansion was the initiator of all this, and I feel really bitter in my heart!
"Wen Qing, I leave this matter to you with full authority to investigate and deal with it. At the beginning, I thought about the master-disciple relationship with Shen Mofeng and couldn't bear to drive him out of the capital. I also wanted to keep him in the capital for retirement, but I didn't expect that he would actually do this.
What a fool! He is no longer worthy of being the dean of Yunmeng Academy! I don’t want to see him again, nor do I want to see the poisonous woman like Concubine Rong again!
"According to my decree, Concubine Rong's Jingren Palace was searched, and Concubine Rong was taken to the prison of the Criminal Department for interrogation!
"As for Shen Mofeng... expel him from Beijing!
"Anyone from the Shen family who is not involved in the case will not be allowed to set foot in the capital for ten years!"
