Female Master: The Cold Prince
Chapter 38: The Downfall of the Xu Family
With Xu Rong's death, Prince Duan would lose a right-hand man in the future. Although Concubine Lian held a high position in the harem, she could not be involved in government affairs, and Prince Duan was not in Beijing at the moment.
For a moment, the entire Prince Duan's party was in a panic and didn't know what to do.
In Yuqing Palace, when Lian Cejun heard the news, her eyes went dark and she fainted on the ground.
The palace servants were in a panic and hurried to ask for the imperial physician. The physician took a silver needle and injected two needles into Lian Cejun's head. In less than a moment, she woke up slowly.
"I want to see His Majesty. My mother must have been wronged."
He didn't believe that his mother would bend the law for personal gain. Someone must have deliberately framed her, and he wanted to explain to His Majesty.
"Lord, you must take care of yourself. The palace servants have gone to invite His Majesty." Yang Lin said.
Lian Cejun looked pale and weak. He lay helplessly on the bed, letting his tears wet the pillow.
The news that the Dali Temple Shaoqing was convicted and imprisoned spread like wildfire, shocking the entire harem.
Lian Cejun's father's family has fallen. In the future, he will no longer have the support of his maternal family in the previous dynasty, and His Majesty will no longer favor him. This is really gratifying.
It would be difficult for Prince Duan to control the court alone, so Lady Lian is no longer a threat.
Most of the people in the harem are hypocritical and flatter the powerful and look down on the weak. Some of them were so excited that they almost ran to Yuqing Palace to watch the fun.
When the wall falls, everyone pushes it. Lian Cejun’s good days are over.
On this side, after the morning court was over, the empress returned to the imperial study to review memorials.
At this time, the female official outside the door came to report.
"Your Majesty, a servant from Yuqing Palace came to report that Concubine Lian had fainted. Your Majesty, please go and see her."
Hearing this, the Queen slammed the memorial shut. She had already been suppressing a rage in her heart, and now she was even more furious.
"If you faint, go get the imperial physician. Why are you asking me for help? I can't treat illnesses. Let him go!"
This made her worry. If she hadn't been concerned about Prince Duan, she really wanted to depose him to prevent him from causing trouble in the harem.
Seeing the Queen was angry, the female official was shocked and immediately regretted coming in to report. The Queen was obviously angry, and she was lucky to come in and run into the gun.
"Yes, I will send him away right away."
In Yuqing Palace, after the little palace man came back, he told Lian Cejun the reply he had received verbatim. Lian Cejun's eyes were instantly blurred with tears and full of disbelief.
"I don't believe it, Your Majesty, you can't treat your subjects like this! You can't treat Yan'er like this!"
Regardless of his weak body, he struggled to get out of bed, rolling and crawling, and the palace servants couldn't stop him.
"Your Majesty, my mother was wrongly accused. You must believe me! Your Majesty!"
"Lord, you must take care of yourself." The palace servants hurriedly helped the man up from the ground.
"Yes, Lord Ce, for the sake of Prince Duan, you must protect your body!"
After hearing this, Lian Cejun regained his senses a little, and he quickly grabbed the palace maid's hand.
"Yes, yes, I still have Yan'er, I can't fall down."
The Xu family has fallen, and he must not fall at this time. He still has to make plans for his daughter and cannot fall.
"Go prepare the pen and ink. I want to write a letter to Yan'er."
He stood up tremblingly, his delicate makeup had long been smudged by tears, and he could no longer care about these things at the moment.
His mind was full of telling his daughter everything that happened. His daughter was the only one he could rely on now.
Although Your Majesty did not exterminate the Xu family, the Xu family would not be able to rise without the leadership of my mother.
The descendants of the Xu family are all a bunch of good-for-nothings who cannot support the burden of the entire family.
The only chance now is for Yan'er to rush back and beg for mercy. Perhaps His Majesty will spare my mother's life for Yan'er's sake.
Feng Lin Palace.
"How is it?" Feng Jun asked the palace maid in front of him.
"Replying to Lord Feng, everything has been verified. The evidence is in my hands, including several witnesses." The palace maid said respectfully.
After saying that, she took out a booklet from her bosom and handed it over.
After Feng Jun finished reading the booklet, a satisfied smile finally appeared on his face, and the depression that had been weighing on his heart for days dissipated a lot.
"Lord Feng, do you want to report this to His Majesty?" asked the palace maid.
"No rush, let me make some plans." Feng Jun said.
You can't do things rashly, you need to plan carefully so that you can deal a fatal blow to someone.
This is how he always does things, either not doing it or doing it to the extreme.
As soon as Xiahou Jiuyue arrived at the mansion, a servant came to report that the prince had woken up.
She was stunned for a moment, and was extremely surprised. She suppressed her doubts and strode to the backyard.
As soon as I entered the room, I could clearly feel Zhongli Muchen's cold and distant gaze.
"You're finally awake. Do you still feel uncomfortable?" She walked to the bedside and asked.
"Thank you for your concern, King Chen. Mu Chen is fine now. There's no need to worry." Zhongli Mu Chen said with a distant look, as if he didn't want to have too much contact with her.
Xiahou Jiuyue was slightly stunned. Although she had not had much contact with Prince Yuxia, she still had some understanding of his previous behavior.
She always felt weird about the sudden change, but she couldn't put her finger on it.
Thinking it might be the poison, she reached out her hand to investigate, but Zhongli Muchen dodged with a look of horror.
"What is Prince Chen doing!" he said angrily.
The hand that Xiahou Jiuyue stretched out froze instantly, neither moving up nor down.
"Sorry." She took the opportunity to withdraw her hand.
"Your Highness Prince Chen, Mu Chen is tired and wants to rest. Please go ahead." After saying that, he turned around and no longer looked at her.
This Prince Chen was so touchy-feely and had no manners at all.
I really don’t know why he had a brain cramp at that time and moved to Prince Chen’s Mansion. Now he is really a sheep walking into a wolf’s den.
Seeing that he was so resistant to her, Xiahou Jiuyue had to find another opportunity to investigate. She asked the servants beside her to take good care of him and turned to leave.
When she arrived at the study, two people were already waiting inside.
"Your Highness." Ran Qing stood up and said.
"There is no need to be polite as a military advisor."
"Your Majesty, since we have found the person who poisoned us, why not just capture him and remove the poison?"
Shangguan Linglong didn't bother with so many formalities and went straight to the point.
"I don't fully understand Gu yet, so I can't remove it rashly." Xiahou Jiuyue explained.
Otherwise, you might fail to remove the poison and end up being poisoned by other poisons.
"Then we can only wait a little longer." Shangguan Linglong understood.
"Your Highness, Xu Rong was impeached in the court today. This must have been your plan, right?" Ran Qing interrupted.
"That's right." Xiahou Jiuyue said undeniably.
"Your Highness' plan is indeed brilliant. This way, the Duan Wang Party and the Princess Party will fight to the death. Then, Your Highness can sit back and watch the fight."
"Military advisor, don't forget that Lord Feng is not someone who will let me stay out of this matter." Xiahou Jiuyue reminded.
Feng Jun is an extremely wise and scheming person. I'm afraid he has seen through all of this long ago.
"Your Highness, although Lord Feng is a man of strategy, the princess may not listen to him on everything." Ran Qing smiled.
The princess is an extremely proud person, how could she always follow a man's instructions?
"Military Advisor, I was right about you." Xiahou Jiuyue praised.
Ran Qing really had a sharp eye and could observe every tiny detail.
"Your Highness, you are too kind." Ran Qing said modestly.
