Jin Wang Dotes on His Concubine

What a deep scheming, what a vicious method!

Emperor Hongjing sneered, his eyes hovering on the faces of his sons like awls.

"You've become very capable!"

"Your Majesty, please calm down." Queen Wei knelt down.

Several harem concubines, including a group of princes and a group of princesses, all knelt down. In the entire palace, apart from Mrs. Xu Guogong, who was temporarily mad, only Princess Jin, who was supporting her, was still standing.

"Holy Father, please calm down!"

King Lu knelt behind him, stretched his neck and glanced at Emperor Hongjing: "Father, please don't be upset. My son will go to Duke Xu's Mansion immediately and ask who is behind the person named Xu. It's too outrageous. How can there be any Targeting women and children.”

With that said, he stood up and went out of the palace, but was stopped by Emperor Hongjing.

"I don't think there are enough things, so I don't want the world to be in chaos!"

King Lu felt aggrieved: "Son, isn't this just a thing that hurts its own kind? If the people behind this act like this, every household will have to be more vigilant in the future. I don't know when my son will no longer be his, and there will be a bunch of cuckolds on his head."

As he said that, King Lu also sneered, his eyes darting back and forth on the faces of King Dai and King Yong: "Do you think it's the third brother, the fourth brother, or the eighth brother?"

King Wu was a little annoyed: "Brother Six, you just keep talking, why are you carrying a gun and a stick?"

King Lu squinted: "Did I carry a gun and a stick? Did you hear it wrong, old man, or did you just pick it up yourself? Don't you have a guilty conscience?"

The two of them quarreled with each other, until Emperor Hongjing hit the armrest angrily, and the two of them shrank their necks and stopped talking.

"Your father is not old or dead yet, and in front of me, he is acting like a brother fighting against each other!" Emperor Hongjing looked a little distressed, and everyone below him naturally knelt down again.

"Father, calm down!"

Emperor Hongjing stood up and left without saying anything.

The matter did not end just like that. That night, people from Jinyiwei came to Xu Guogong's mansion.

The Jinyi Guards were one of the twelve guards in Emperor Hongjing's personal army. They rarely showed their faces in front of others. Only court officials who made a huge mistake would come to visit in this way.

The entire Duke Xu's mansion was surrounded, and all the masters and servants in the mansion were driven out of their rooms and gathered in a hall. Then, like hungry wolves descending from the mountain, this group of people dispersed into the huge Duke Xu's mansion.

Xu Guogong's eyes were cracked and his beard was furious, but he still couldn't stop anything. He could only watch these people searching around, as if they wanted to find something.

In fact, Xu Guogong had known about what happened in the palace for a long time, and he felt that a disaster was imminent.

But the situation has not yet come to light. No one knows what Emperor Hongjing will think, but he did not expect it to come so soon. Thinking of the letters he had burned in the afternoon, Xu Guogong felt thirsty for a while.

Now that the truth has been exposed, he can only bite her to death because he wants to vent his anger for his daughter. He must not say anything else. Maybe there will be a chance. If that man takes over in the future, he will not be able to do anything. The merit of following the dragon. But if you are ignorant and bite indiscriminately in order to get away from sin, you will be the end of the chicken.

Xu Guogong has been in court for many years, but he still understands these simple principles.

Aunt Magnolia was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she was supported by two girls. She looked panicked and lost her previous calmness.

"Master..." She wanted to lean over to seek some protection, but was pushed away by Xu Guogong.

"What time is it? Be more solemn!"

Aunt Yulan fell to the ground and screamed in pain.

Xu Guogong used to do this very well, but now something happened in the house, so he changed his face. Aunt Yulan didn't know that Duke Xu Guogong had a hint of anger towards her. If it weren't for the relationship between Xu Zhe, the eldest son of the concubine born by Aunt Yulan, and that master, Xu Guogong would never abandon the King of Jin and become his master.

People like Xu Guogong will not review their own mistakes, but are accustomed to blaming everything on others. In fact, if he hadn't been greedy and thought that that man was more likely to ascend to the throne than King Jin, and was persuaded by others, he wouldn't have caused such a fuss.

A group of royal guards quickly walked out of the study, the leader holding a box in his hand.

"Commander, we found it."

The commander nodded and took the box and held it in his arms. At this time, all of Xu Guogong's attention was focused on the box. If he remembered correctly, there was no such box in his study.

But where did they find this brocade box? Xu Guogong had a bad feeling in his heart.

With a strong smile, he took a step forward and asked, "I still don't know what is in this box. What are you guys searching for? If I remember correctly, there is no such box in my study."

The commander was quite rude to him: "Young Master, of course I can't remember. I have seen people like you too many times, and it's all not good for me. Either I can't remember clearly, or I don't know. But this thing has been We found out that it is true. As for what is in this, I will not tell you. Your Majesty will inform you when the time comes. You will know. My father-in-law is staying here and is not allowed to go anywhere."

After saying that, the man cupped his hands and left, but Duke Xu's mansion was still surrounded so tightly that not even a fly could fly in.

This night was destined to be a chaotic night. Emperor Hongjing became angry in Qianqing Palace and ordered people to bring the fourth prince Yong Wang into the palace overnight.

In the Qianqing Palace, Emperor Hongjing's eyes were full of sternness, and he threw the thing in his hand in front of King Yong who was kneeling on the ground.

"Take a good look at it for yourself, you are really brave!"

When King Yong was brought into the palace, he had a bad premonition in his heart. Seeing this situation again, his liver and gallbladder were already broken. With trembling hands, he picked up several letters on the ground and opened them one by one. He found that these letters were secret letters between him and Duke Xu.

Some of the letters were nothing more than common gossip. Although there was no seal on them, the person who wrote them claimed to have used his own handwriting. There is also a secret letter between the two of them discussing how to act. It seems that in order to gain the trust of the other party and to make the other party use it for themselves, his gold seal was used on it.

What surprised him the most was that the handwriting on these letters turned out to be his handwriting.

King Yong's brain exploded with a bang, "Father, this was not done by my son, this is someone who framed my son!"

Chapter 181

The night in the Forbidden City is darker than the night elsewhere.

Qianqing Palace is brightly lit, but it is a quiet place with no one around. The king in bright yellow clothes stood against the light, and his face was mottled and blurry in King Yong's eyes.

"Frame you? Who framed you? Chang Jian'an personally brought people to Xu Guogong's mansion to find this thing. Are you saying that Chang Jian'an wants to frame you?" Chang Jian'an is the commander of the Jinyi Guards and a confidant of Emperor Hongjing. In addition to Emperor Hongjing's He doesn't listen to anyone's orders. He is a lonely official with a reputation in the court.

King Yong was sweating coldly, but he still defended: "But this is really not what I did. Someone deliberately wanted to harm me. I hope my father will learn from it. No matter how stupid I am, I will not use my money to communicate with others." Yin, isn’t this an obvious way to give people an excuse?”

Emperor Hongjing just looked at him and sneered without saying anything.

King Yong's heart kept falling, never bottoming out.

According to common sense, it is extremely stupid to communicate with the other party, especially such a confidential letter, and to leave a seal on the letter. But Xu Guogong was a veteran of two dynasties and the father-in-law of the King of Jin. If you wanted to bribe him, you would have to spend some money. He was an old fox who never let go of the rabbit before he saw it, so he found a secret letter with a pair of golden seals, so it was not that he could not win people's trust.

And Emperor Hongjing's sneer was exactly in response to this, indicating that Emperor Hongjing believed it.

These thoughts were swirling around in King Yong's mind, and he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, with a bone-chilling coldness. I also know that my father will not believe anything I say now.

Who harmed him? Who harmed him?

King An? Acting king? King Lu? Or King Jin?

He had a way to explain himself clearly, but if he said that, he would probably make his father even more disgusted, and it was still unknown whether the other party would testify against him.

Without the charter, King Yong could only kowtow with tears in his eyes: "Father, it really wasn't my son who did this. How could my son do such a thing? I hope my father will understand clearly."

The bang-bang-bang kowtow sounds extremely terrifying at night.

But over the years, Emperor Hongjing had heard countless stories, and had even seen scenes that were even more miserable and pitiful. He no longer believed in these superficial tricks, and he believed more in what he saw with his own eyes.

"You can't do such a thing? Then what happened to the prince last time and the Wang family's matter, do you think I don't know about it if I don't tell you? Concubine Shu bribed the people around Concubine Kang and made her deal with Xiaobao in the imperial dining room. You started, but you were framed by Concubine Qian Xian. You don’t know why Concubine Shu gave up so many noble women back then, but she chose the legitimate daughter of the defeated Anqing Hou Mansion to be your concubine. Your concubine? What's going on with Lao Wu's princess? Do you really think I don't know anything?

"Your mother and son are really evil-minded. Just because Concubine Shu and Concubine De were at odds in the early years, they have been resentful for many years. They will not let go even after death, and even harm the next generation. You and your mother and concubine are really good, very good. ah!"

King Yong was completely shocked and speechless.

Emperor Hongjing's eyes were full of disgust: "Take him down!"

No one knows what happened in Qianqing Palace that night, but the next day King Yong was imprisoned in his own palace by Emperor Hongjing's order, on the charge of forming a clique for personal gain.

Concubine Zhang Shu offended Emperor Hongjing because she begged for her son's love. She was stripped of her title as Concubine Shu and was banned from her own palace.

Not only the mother and son, but also Xu Guogong, but Xu Guogong refused to die to admit that he had formed a party with King Yong. But there are all the human and material evidences, so he can't refute it. Xu Guogong was sentenced to prison.
