"How did it fall?" the Supreme Emperor asked in a deep voice.
Eunuch Fu didn't say anything, but asked someone to bring Yuan Niang in.
Feng Mingwei gave Jiang Yao a miscarriage pill and a few more injections. After a while, she slowly woke up.
At this time, Yuan Niang came in with her child and knelt down in front of the Supreme Emperor anxiously. She had already changed her clothes, but her hair was still wet. She raised her eyes and looked at King Chu with that innocent look in her eyes, "Your Majesty..."
King Chu suddenly felt distressed, but he did not dare to comfort her in front of the Supreme Emperor.
"Grandfather, my mother fell into the lotus pond to save me." Yuan Niang didn't say anything, so Zheng'er got up first and walked to the Supreme Emperor and said in a sweet voice.
The child was beautiful, with clear features, fair skin, and watery peach blossom eyes, exactly like the King of Chu when he was a child.
Because I had been raised in Longxin Palace for a while and had become familiar with the Supreme Emperor, I became bolder in front of him.
Facing the child, the Supreme Emperor had a kind face and said with a smile: "Then who wants to harm Zheng'er?"
Zheng'er turned around and looked at the girl next to Zheng Yan, pointed at her and said angrily: "It was her, she pushed my mother first, and she accidentally fell and hit my mother. Then in order to save me, my mother pushed her
He accidentally fell into the lotus pond."
Zheng Yan's expression changed. Unexpectedly, she was burned with fire. She wanted to defend herself. At this time, King Jin came over and held her hand, supported her, and signaled her not to be afraid. Then Murong Jin looked at the girl and said, "Hong
Mian, what’s going on?”
Hong Mian shook her head in fear, "Your Majesty, I didn't push Yuanshi, I just waited outside the palace, I didn't do anything!"
"Then you mean that the eldest son of Prince Chu's palace lied and slandered you?" Yuan Niang's eyes became sharp and she said to Murong Chu: "My lord, Zheng'er did not lie. It was Princess Jin's girl who almost caused Zheng'er to fall into the lotus pond.
If I hadn't appeared in time, it would have been Zheng'er who fell into the lotus pond."
As she said this, she looked at Zheng Yan with red eyes, "Originally, I was just waiting in the main hall, but it was Princess Jin who couldn't tolerate me and drove me away."
"I didn't expect Princess Jin to hate me, but she still dared to instruct the girl to hurt the child..."
Murong Chu's eyes darkened and he stared at King Jin coldly, "Sixth brother! You are so brave. You dare to do such a thing in the Dragon Heart Palace. Do you want to kill my son?"
Faced with King Chu's question, Murong Jin sneered, "Sixth Brother, I think you have been deceived by this witch! How could you actually say such a thing? Don't you have the ability to judge yourself? Do you listen to this woman at all?
?”
"No wonder the fourth sister-in-law is losing weight these days and wants to make peace with you."
"Now I can finally understand the pain in my fourth sister-in-law's heart. Fourth brother, please don't imitate those unscrupulous people who dote on concubines and kill their wives!"
King Chu's face changed slightly. He didn't expect King Jin to say that, saying that Yuan Niang was a witch, and that he doted on his concubines and killed his wives. If the emperor believed his words, then the Yuan family would definitely have no way to survive.
Yuan Niang said hurriedly: "Brother Chu, even if you don't believe me, you should believe Zheng'er!"
Murong Chu's eyes became sharp and he glanced at her coldly, signaling her to stop talking. Then he stepped forward and cupped his hands and said: "Grandfather, I think this is a misunderstanding. Zheng'er is still young, so maybe he saw it wrong.
I believe it is impossible for Sixth Brother and Sixth Sister-in-law to instruct the girl to do something to the child in Longxin Palace."
Yuan Niang realized the seriousness of the matter and immediately stood over the man, looking like a bullied little daughter-in-law. She said nothing, but her eyes were coldly staring at Zheng Yan, with murderous intent flashing across her face.
The Supreme Emperor was sitting on the first chair in the hall, his face indescribably angry, but he did not get angry in public, and seemed to have no intention of pursuing further, "Since it is all a misunderstanding, so be it! Now that Princess Chu is pregnant, it is a happy event.
I don’t want to ruin my mood because of these messy things.”
Many distinguished guests came to the banquet today. If we pursue the matter now, it will only make people laugh at the royal family.
The Supreme Emperor glanced at Yuan Niang displeasedly, "As for the canonization of Zheng'er's biological mother as the concubine of the King of Chu, let's leave it at that. From now on, Zheng'er's mother and concubine will be the Princess of Chu, and Yuan will be just a concubine."
The King of Chu cupped his hands and said: "My grandson obeys the decree and listens to the emperor's grandfather's wishes in everything."
Hearing this, Yuan Niang raised her head suddenly, glanced at King Chu with scarlet eyes, and then her eyes fell on Princess Chu, with a smile on her lips, "Congratulations, sister, I just said that you don't look good, you must be happy.
