After finishing his words, he glanced at the Queen.
"Today is the fifteenth. Queen, please return to the palace with me."
The queen also stood up.
"Yes, I obey your order."
Eunuch Qi immediately shouted loudly.
"The Emperor is riding in Fengyi Palace."
There was a dead silence in the Changchun Palace. Except for the Queen Mother, everyone knelt down to see off the Emperor and Queen.
After the bright yellow figure disappeared outside the Changchun Palace, Concubine Hu, who had been silent for the whole time, slowly raised her eyes, with poisonous intent in her eyes, and her hands wanted to smash the handkerchief in her hands.
The Queen Mother was so angry that she smashed the tea cup on the table to the ground. The porcelain fell to the ground with a sharp cracking sound. The eunuchs and maids knelt on the ground, not daring to take a breath.
The nine kings did not see her as the queen mother, and the emperor was partial to him.
How not to make her angry, how not to make her angry.
"Queen Mother, calm down."
Concubine Hu looked gloomy, but at this time she had to speak out to comfort the Queen Mother, but she could not hide the anger in her voice.
"The Emperor's partial trust in the Nine Kings is no longer the same. However, if he is so unscrupulous and unscrupulous without punishing her, won't it make the Nine Kings even more serious about not taking the Queen Mother into consideration in the future?"
The Queen Mother's eyes narrowed.
"Partial belief? Aren't the Nine Kings relying on the Emperor's partial belief to be so unscrupulous and disrespectful?"
"Emperor! He is really a good son of the Ai family. He must set an example for the people of the world. He must value morality and ethics, be courteous to the emperor and loyal to his ministers, and be kind to his father and filial to his son."
"But when did he fulfill his filial piety to the Ai family behind his back? He disobeyed and opposed the Ai family everywhere."
After all, he is not her flesh and blood, but he has raised a white-eyed wolf.
Beating the Marquis of Chongyang was a minor matter, but using Marquis Chongyang to slap her in the face was the real purpose of the Emperor and the Nine Kings.
Accompanying the emperor is like accompanying a tiger; the emperor's heart is truly unpredictable.
"Queen Mother."
Marquis Chongyang, who was kneeling on the ground, half raised his head.
"I have one more thing to report."
The Queen Mother's face was always gloomy. Concubine Hu turned to look at the eunuchs and maids kneeling on the floor in the palace, and raised her hand to wave.
"You all stand down."
"yes."
The eunuchs and maids did not dare to raise their heads, they stood up and left cautiously.
The Queen Mother glanced at Chongyang Hou who was kneeling on the ground.
"What's wrong?"
After everyone had retreated and only the Queen Mother and Concubine Hu were left in the palace, Marquis Chongyang gritted his teeth and endured the pain before speaking.
"When I arrived at the Nine Princes' Mansion, I saw the two female guards protecting Luo Jiuli. I also heard a woman's voice coming from the Nine Princes' house. That voice was undoubtedly Luo Jiuli."
"Luo Jiuli is in Jiuwang Mansion at night?"
The Queen Mother and Concubine Hu were startled and suddenly looked at Chongyang Hou.
"yes."
Marquis Chongyang nodded.
"I suspect that Luo Jiuli is involved in Miss Hu's matter."
"Although no evidence has been found yet, in the entire capital, only Jiu Wang and Luo Jiuli have this motive."
"What's more, if those two people hadn't tortured the eldest lady with torture, the eldest lady would not have been ordained as a nun by the emperor, let alone such a thing."
Chongyang Hou's words about villainous behavior really put eye drops on Jiu Wang and Luo Jiuli.
The Queen Mother gritted her teeth and covered up the cold murderous look in her eyes.
Concubine Hu's eyes were filled with coldness, she stood beside the Queen Mother and lowered her voice.
"Aunt, I thought these two people... had to be eliminated."
The Queen Mother narrowed her eyes, looked at Concubine Hu, and then said seriously.
"One is a prince and the other is a young lady from the Duke's Palace. Do you think it's easy?"
"What's more, the Nine Kings have learned a lot of skills since they were young. They have fought on the battlefield and made many military achievements. He is also protected by several unfathomable masters. How dare you think that this thing can work."
"But, aunt——"
The cold light in Concubine Hu's eyes flashed away.
"I am not willing to accept it. Ever since Luo Jiuli and King Zhao reconciled, it seems that everything has begun to develop in a direction beyond our control."
It was so fast that she was caught off guard.
"Luo Jiuli is no longer the weak and bully second lady she used to be. She has seen through these successive schemes, and King Zhao has suffered losses again and again at her hands."
"And this time she and the Nine Kings made a big fuss in the Sima Mansion, causing the Hu family to lose trust in front of the emperor and lose face in front of the people. Their reputation and power were affected immeasurably. Now, Bingyu has suffered such humiliation again.
This life is ruined..."
All these things, she was no longer able to think about who was plotting against whom. She only knew that all the changes that happened were inseparable from Jiu Wang and Luo Jiuli.
"If she were still the second young lady of Duke Yiguo's palace, I would be able to let her go. But now, aunt, she is staying overnight in the Ninth Prince's Mansion, and her relationship with the Ninth Prince is just one word away from being announced to the world."
"Once she truly marries the Nine Kings, her identity will undergo earth-shaking changes and she will be on an equal footing with her concubines."
"As long as she is here from now on, only the words of the Nine Kings in the court have the weight. As long as the emperor still believes in the Nine Kings, then Prince Zhao will not be able to sit in that position smoothly."
"If the other princes draw those two people over, no matter which one of them becomes a helper, then King Zhao's situation will be even worse."
Thinking of this, Concubine Hu became more determined to get rid of Luo Jiuli.
How could the Queen Mother not know the resentment in Concubine Hu's heart? In fact, she was also moved by it.
"Whether you are dealing with the Nine Kings or Luo Jiuli, you must not be reckless. You must have a foolproof plan."
As soon as the Queen Mother let go, Concubine Hu and Marquis Chongyang, who was kneeling on the ground, both looked over.
The Queen Mother agreed.
Chongyang Hou lowered his head and a dark light flashed across his eyes.
Concubine Hu's stunning face had a cold color.
——
The next day, early in the morning, a layer of white mist hung around in the cold late autumn air, and there were almost no leaves left on the trees.
On the school field in the backyard of the Ninth Prince, the Ninth Prince Xiao Mingxuan, who was wearing a white shorts shirt and dripping with sweat, threw the spear in his hand at the people accompanying him. The accompanying guard caught the handle of the gun, inserted the spear back into the weapon pile, and then
A guard handed over a soft towel, and Xiao Mingxuan slowly walked down from the school grounds wiping his sweat.
"master."
Qin Yin stepped forward to greet him.
"The emperor's oral order came from the palace, saying that the master did not respect the Queen Mother's decree and injured Chongyang Marquis. The master was ordered to be banned from the palace for half a year and fined for one year. Without the emperor's permission, he is not allowed to leave the palace privately."
"Um."
Xiao Mingxuan seemed to be in a good mood and nodded indifferently.
"Your Majesty, my brother understands my thoughts."
"What did the emperor say to Marquis Chongyang?"
"The Emperor said that Marquis Chongyang has been wronged, but fortunately he is fine and can only be raised for a few days."
Qin Yin smiled contemptuously.
"He, the Marquis of Chongyang, really thinks that he is a person. He dares to go to the emperor to complain about the prince. Tsk! Tsk! Fortunately, he has such a thick skin on his face. If it were another person, he would not be automatically humiliated by being put on a pole.
