The legitimate daughter was reborn, and the emperor’s little Jiaojiao went crazy.

Upon hearing this, all of Concubine Jing's strength seemed to be drained away. She fell helplessly to the ground, staring at the ground with empty eyes.

It's over, it's over.

How could the emperor let her son and daughter go if he knew about this?

Concubine Jing's lips trembled slightly, and she suddenly raised her face that was twisted with anger and smiled horribly, "I don't want to enter the palace as a concubine. Does the emperor know?"

She thought that this would hurt Emperor Mingde's self-esteem, but he just pursed his lips calmly and said, "I know, just like I don't want you to enter the palace. You don't like me, and I don't like you either."

Princess Jing: “!!!”

Emperor Mingde raised his eyebrows and said calmly, "When you first entered the palace, if you dared to say 'no', I would have had reason to refuse you entry. Do you dare to say it? If you don't dare to say it, how can you have the face to complain in front of me?"

Concubine Jing felt a suffocating pain, "Yes! I am a coward, I dare not say I don't want to, but..."

"But why didn't you explain it to me like Concubine Lin did? Concubine Lin told me that she had someone in her heart and that she entered the palace for family reasons. I have never touched Concubine Lin. Do you want to think about what it was like when you first entered the palace?"

Concubine Jing felt so shocked by Emperor Mingde's words that her chest ached.

After entering the palace, she found out that she was pregnant. She was extremely scared and only wanted to sleep with the emperor so that she could cover it up.

She was dressed extremely seductively and lit warm incense in the palace to create a very cozy atmosphere, hoping that Emperor Mingde would come to visit her more often so that she could get away with it.

Now that the window paper has been torn, Concubine Jing is like a plucked chicken, wishing there was a crack in the ground for her to crawl into.

She knew that Emperor Mingde's words, "Do you want to think about what it was like when you first entered the palace?" were already very polite. In fact, what he meant was, "Do you want to think about what it was like when you first slept with the emperor?"

Concubine Jing's face was so red that it seemed like blood could drip out. She managed to squeeze out a few words: "Your Majesty...I...I just..."

"After you gave birth to Yunlan, I accidentally found out that Yong'er was not my son. I also knew that you had someone in your heart, so I never set foot in your bedroom again."

It’s better not to give it to someone who has some face.

Emperor Mingde was the most wronged person. In the first half of his life, he wanted to make some achievements on the throne. In order to gain more autonomy in the former dynasty, he had to compromise with the empress dowager in the harem and let her arrange people to enter the palace.

That was almost like arranging a person to enter the harem in order to gain an official position for one of their own in the previous dynasty.

It is precisely because of this that, on the one hand, he feels that those women are either pawns who are quite pitiful, or enemies standing on the opposite side.

He had no feelings for them, and even though he had children with them, there was no trace of tenderness or love in his heart.

Without emotion, how can there be resentment? He originally did not hate.

Even though he was an emperor who had helped raise someone else's son for so many years, he still endured it.

Emperor Mingde had always wanted to release all those who were willing to leave the palace once he was truly in power and had the final say.

Concubine Jing was stunned, her desperate eyes were filled with broken tears.

Did Emperor Mingde know the truth so early? Then! Then! Then he actually tolerated Yong'er for so long?

She always thought that Emperor Mingde stopped visiting her bedroom because she still had lochia after giving birth, which made him feel disgusted.

Later, no matter how she hinted, the chicken soup was delivered outside the imperial study several times, and she couldn't even see the person.

Concubine Jing was extremely ashamed at this moment.

Then Emperor Mingde said, "I thought you were a poor person and had children, so I wanted to save your face. But you came to blame me and told me that you didn't want to enter the palace. What were you doing before?"

Concubine Jing collapsed to the ground, feeling that her dignity was being trampled upon.

But now she completely disregarded her ridiculous dignity, and knelt deeply on the ground, tears streaming down her face, "Your Majesty, this is all my fault. I am willing to die to apologize for my crime. Yunlan is your biological daughter, and Yong'er was raised by you. I remember that you personally tested Yong'er's homework. Please give them both a chance to live, and I am willing to die to thank you."

In her opinion, since Emperor Mingde already knew the truth and had tolerated it for so long, his feelings should still be there, so she felt a glimmer of hope again.

Emperor Mingde looked at the almost crazy woman in front of him and said, "Do you really think that I sentenced them to death because they wanted to poison me?"

Concubine Jing's heart sank when she heard this.

Emperor Mingde flipped through the imperial desk, pulled out a copy of the interrogation record and threw it on the ground, "Read it yourself."

Concubine Jing stretched out her trembling hand, picked up the book in front of her and started to read it quickly.

The booklet recorded the whole process of Xiao Yong and his sister poisoning Emperor Mingde, and they confessed everything. But this was not the reason why they were sentenced to death.

The following records in detail that Xiao Yong had more than 10,000 private soldiers, ready to start an uprising at any time.

There is another incident involved here. Princess Yunlan fell in love with Shi Yunqi. On the night of Shi Yunqi's wedding, she bribed someone to poison the bride Wei Cailing.

After the incident was exposed, Princess Yunlan was very scared and quickly killed all the people involved. However, Shi Anxia still caught Yinzhu and handed him over to the government to be executed. After the execution, the portrait and the whole story were posted on the notice board to inform the whole city.

This made Princess Yunlan dare not move at all, and she no longer dared to extend her claws to the Marquis Jian'an's Mansion.

Concubine Jing shook her head. "No, no, Yunlan wouldn't do that. She..."

Suddenly I remembered that my daughter had taken over the bookstore in Beijing. Whenever Yunqi was there, she would go there.

Her daughter even hinted in front of her, wanting her to stop Shi Yunqi from getting married.

She heard with her own ears that her daughter had suggested and instigated many daughters of ministers to ask their fathers to pressure Wei Zhong to break off the engagement... She had always thought that her daughter had resorted to this desperate measure for the sake of her close friend, but it turned out that her daughter herself had fallen in love with Shi Yunqi.

That’s not all… When Concubine Jing saw what was going on, her pupils suddenly dilated, “Yong’er is going to marry Princess Haiyan?”

Emperor Mingde smiled coldly, "Your son is ambitious, of course he covets Phoenix Girl. If it weren't for the destruction of the Heavenly Cauldron, there would be no evidence that your son wanted to kill the prince consort."

It turned out that Qingtian Ding had received two murder orders that day.

On one side, Luo Ying wants to kill Shi Anxia and wants to marry Cen Yuan; on the other side, Xiao Yong wants to kill Cen Yuan and wants to marry Shi Anxia.

Qing Tian Ding was ready to kill the couple who were about to get married overnight.

As a result, Cen Yuan mobilized the Dongyu Guard and Xiying Guard to seize the Qingtian Ding in one fell swoop, and unexpectedly found evidence related to Xiao Yong.

Emperor Mingde asked softly, "Do you still think your son and daughter died unjustly?"

If they were guilty of regicide and patricide, they could be exempted from the death penalty because Emperor Mingde was still alive. But rebellion and hiring a killer to kill someone were both capital crimes that they could not escape.

Since the words have been so clear, Emperor Mingde doesn't mind being more clear, "Youen, summon Prince Yongle to the palace for an audience."
