Dressed as the villain's stepmother

After the emperor said these words, he left in a somewhat annoyed manner. Concubine Xi looked at his leaving back, without much emotion in her eyes.

It was clear that the prime minister had made a mistake before, but he suppressed the matter indifferently. Now, because of the destruction of a seven-hole grass, his temper immediately rose.

After all, the third prince is not as important as a piece of grass.

"Mother, why don't we tell the truth to our father? It was obviously that good-looking sister who fed me a pill, and I became what I was before."

The third prince asked softly after the emperor left.

The mother-in-law had clearly told herself before that she could lie in front of anyone, but she could never lie in front of her father.

But now she broke the rules.

"There are some things you don't understand now. In short, forget all those things that happened before. You are absolutely not allowed to mention in front of anyone that your illness was caused by a pill."

Concubine Xi warned very solemnly.

"If others find out, it will inevitably lead to the crime of beheading. At that time, it will not only be Jiang Lianzhu who suffers, but it may also involve the two of us."

After hearing this, the third prince immediately covered his mouth with his hand and shook his head as if he was extremely scared.

No, he didn't want his head to fall to the ground. This matter must be kept well hidden!

the other side.

The prime minister has been called into the imperial study by the eunuch.

When he came just now, he didn't know why. He thought it was because the emperor wanted to praise him for organizing the sacrificial ceremony well.

But he didn't expect that he would be hit in the face as soon as he opened his mouth.

"You really like to make trouble in the harem. First, because Concubine Xi didn't understand the principle of mutual restraint of medicinal materials, the third child almost died. Now, you have left sequelae. If it weren't for those people in the Imperial Hospital, If you are rescued in time, you will definitely have to go through hell."

The emperor spoke in an extremely cold voice, full of dissatisfaction, and his expression on the imaging screen immediately changed. He was submissive and didn't know how to speak.

"Your Majesty, I was temporarily obsessed with ghosts before, and I definitely never thought about harming the third prince secretly."

The Prime Minister's legs softened and he knelt down.

He thought he could escape from the things he did, but now it seems that he has thought too much.

It's just because the emperor doesn't want to settle accounts with him over these things - if he really counts them carefully, he won't be able to lose even if he has hundreds of heads.

"never thought before?"

"Since you have never thought about it, why would you come up with such a vicious method? Although I am a little tolerant towards you on weekdays, I am not easy to deceive. When you say this, think about it in your mind. clear."

The emperor slammed the table in front of him, and the loud sound made the prime minister shake his shoulders. For a moment, he couldn't even say a word in rebuttal.

He has done such an unkind and unjust thing. No matter how he talks about it, he will be at fault.

Now that the emperor is still willing to let him come to the imperial study, it may mean that he has left a chance to redeem himself.

When the prime minister thought of this, the expression on his face immediately changed: "I know that I was wrong in what I did before. I wonder if your majesty can give me a chance to redeem myself. Even if I have to go through fire and water for your majesty, I will not hesitate to do so." of!"

What he said was righteous and awe-inspiring, but in fact it was just some of the most basic scene talk.

Naturally, the emperor could hear the meaning and squinted his eyes slightly: "Well, I don't really want to blame you for anything. It's just that if something goes too far, it will be like lifting a rock to hit you." My own feet."

"You are a smart man, otherwise you would not have been able to take the position of prime minister in just a few years with the help of the Huo family. You should understand what I just said."

The emperor said unhurriedly, and did not directly state what his purpose was.

In fact, he just wanted the prime minister to understand that he still held a handle on him. If he didn't act honestly for him in the future, then he wouldn't blame himself for being rude.

Seeing the emperor's calm expression, the prime minister breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately said nothing else.

When the prime minister left the palace, his legs and feet were weak.

The young man waiting outside saw him coming out and greeted him without saying a word: "Your Majesty must have praised me for how well I handled this matter. After all, even though I was busy working until late at night, I was still thinking about the sacrifice." , the things you make will certainly not be bad!”

He kept talking about the compliments he had thought of before, completely unaware that the prime minister's face was getting worse and worse.

Seeing that the prime minister had not responded, the young man immediately wanted to continue saying something else.

But before he opened his mouth, the Prime Minister shouted: That's enough!

"Master..." The boy hesitated for a while, and for a moment he didn't know what was wrong with what he just said. He had obviously flattered him to the best of his ability.

"Things that don't know how to look at people!"

The Prime Minister looked at him with slight disgust, then directly opened the curtain of the carriage and sat on it.

The emperor no longer has any grudges against himself as he did before. He must be careful and cautious when doing things. When he entertains the envoys from the Western Regions, he must not make any mistakes again.

Six doors.

Jiang Lianzhu told Liao Yunchuan everything that happened in the palace. Just after she finished explaining the matter, someone came in in a hurry.

"Sir, our brothers said that the prime minister was called into the imperial study by the emperor. I don't know why. When he came out, he had a bad face. He seemed to have scolded the guards who opened the door."

The man talked about these things seriously, but he didn't think it was very funny.

"Understood, you step back."

Liao Yunchuan nodded inaudibly and waved the man away.

Jiang Lianzhu couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"It seems that the prime minister's life will not be easy. With such a big handle in the emperor's hands, he will inevitably be restricted in the future."

She was slightly suspected of making sarcastic remarks, but her inner joy was genuine.

"Of course, the Prime Minister probably won't make any small moves recently. I can just continue to investigate the things that have not been completed before."

Liao Yunchuan couldn't help but laugh. .
