Fukang hurriedly ran to Zhao Jin and said, "Your Highness, something big happened in the palace. Princess Yurong was summoned to the palace by the emperor."
Although Zhao Jin sympathized with his seventeenth sister, his long career in officialdom taught him not to meddle in other people's business, so he did not have too many emotional fluctuations.
"What's so novel about this? I think it's because Xiao Shiqi lost his etiquette in the court today, so my father called him over to persuade him."
Fukang said anxiously, "No, no, Concubine Jing reported that Princess Seventeen had an affair with General Wei, and now the whole palace is in turmoil."
Zhao Jin was also really frightened. If these words were spread, how would Yu Rong behave in the future?
But Fukang's reaction was too abnormal. He was even more anxious than if something happened to his own sister.
"What are you in a hurry for?"
Fukang said with a bitter look on his face, "Your Highness, you don't know something. In the past, when you were framed, I was in prison. It was Princess Yurong who went to intercede with the person who was accused, otherwise I would be imprisoned."
Beaten to death."
Zhao Jin originally didn't want to meddle in other people's business, but Yu Rong once helped him when he was in the most difficult time, so he got up and went to Tai Chi Hall.
"Seventeen, can you admit the things they say?"
The emperor said calmly, not knowing whether he was in good or bad mood at this time.
Yurong asked, "Does your father believe what they say?"
The emperor was furious and threw the memorial and the book to the ground.
"You bastard, you still don't repent when you are about to die. It seems that you are really indulged."
Yu Rong has always been used to being wronged, and he would never argue or ask for courtesy on his own behalf, but Wei Wu was the last straw that broke the camel's back.
She smiled sarcastically and said, "Father said you would indulge me, but I don't know where you are indulging me. It's because my mother didn't get the title by then, or because just any servant can bully me at will."
The emperor did not want to mention these old events. He knew that he could not feel sorry for the mother and daughter, but he still hated them from the bottom of his heart.
When the imperial concubine saw the emperor like this, she immediately came to smooth things over.
"Your Majesty, please calm down first. Princess Seventeen is a child. If you have anything to say, just speak slowly."
Yurong immediately pointed the finger at her, "The imperial concubine framed my mother for climbing into my father's bed, but whether this was framed or intentional, the imperial concubine must know better than anyone else."
Concubine Jing felt guilty and did not dare to say anything.
The emperor became even more angry after hearing her unreasonable words.
"You are as lowly as your mother. If you cannot prove your innocence today, I will definitely have you beaten to death."
"Father, how should I prove my innocence? Can I jump into the well water to wash away my grievances?"
Yes, Yurong's mother was framed, and then fell ill, and finally committed suicide by throwing herself into a well in order not to implicate herself.
Every word he spoke was like a needle poking into the emperor's heart.
The imperial concubine also wanted to know whether he had physical intimacy with General Wei, so she came up with a solution.
"Your Majesty, I do have a ready-made method. A physical examination can prove the innocence of the Seventeenth Princess."
The nanny on the side knelt on the ground and begged the emperor, "Your Majesty, this method cannot be used. The seventeenth princess has a delicate body. If she does this, won't it insult her reputation?"
While several people were arguing, Zhao Jin came.
"Father, I have a few personal words that I would like to say to you. Your Majesty, please step aside."
After everyone else left, Zhao Jin told the truth about the matter.
"Father, Yu Rong and General Wei are in love, but their relationship is not as filthy as everyone in the palace said. The sweetheart General Wei mentioned before is Yu Rong. In this case, we will break it up.
Got them."
The emperor turned his rosary beads and closed his eyes, then opened them again after a while.
"How do you know there is really no personal relationship between them?"
"My son, I know General Wei well. He is an upright gentleman. The most important thing for us right now is not to make things worse, otherwise he will come and take Yurong away."
The emperor smiled helplessly.
"These children are really young and don't know whether to live or die. Let's just let this matter go. I'll punish the insiders and silence the palace maids and eunuchs, and let this matter go away."
Zhao Jin smiled and said, "Father, I know everything clearly. Our Zhao country will definitely conquer all directions and win a great victory."
As soon as Zhao Jin returned to his palace, Wei Wu came with a sword.
He was drunk and drunk, carrying a wine bottle and drinking as he walked away.
I can't even walk steadily and I still have to compete with him.
Zhao Jin pushed him away and sat directly on the case to handle his official duties.
Wei Wu was cursing there alone.
"Zhao Jin, it's in vain that I admired you so much as a hero before. I never thought you were just a villain who likes to do things behind your back."
Zhao Jin liked to handle official duties quietly. He dug his ears and said impatiently to his servants, "Help General Wei down to rest."
Wei Wu broke free from the pull of the servant and cursed, "Zhao Jin, you are really not a human being. It was you who told the emperor that you wanted to give the beautiful appearance to that Zhao Zhongsheng."
After hearing this, Zhao Jin waved his hand and asked everyone to leave.
"How do you know? Maybe my father has your daughter-in-law with him."
Wei Wu was drunk and unconscious at the moment. He just wanted to vent all the frustration in his heart. He never expected that he would reveal such a big secret.
"If I didn't have a female servant, I wouldn't know the dirty things you did behind my back."
"Who is that girl?"
Fortunately, Wei Wu was just drunk, not stupid.
"Don't try to trick me. Let me ask you why you proposed to allocate jade to Zhao Zhongsheng."
"Because you didn't tell me that your sweetheart was Yurong."
Wei Wu laughed loudly, "You hypocrite, she is also your sister, why do you want to harm her like this."
Zhao Jin said impatiently, "I didn't harm her. Do you know how difficult it is for him to live in this palace? It is already the highest honor to marry her to the capital instead of going out to get married."
Then he said sadly, "Do you know what it looks like when the princess who went out to get married died?"
Wei Wu fell to the ground and cried with his head in his arms.
"But he is the girl I like. I don't want to marry someone I don't love and spend the rest of my life. The only person I love is Jade Rong."
Zhao Jin said frankly, "What the Ninth Five Lords said is the law. Even if the father knows it now, he can't change it day and night. You two just missed it. Yu Rong has her own princess house and is living a good life."
