After wearing a sick and weak cannon fodder as a prince

As soon as the eunuch finished speaking, Qin Yuan walked in.When everyone saw it, they knelt down and saluted: "See Your Majesty!"

Concubine Shu's face turned pale when she saw Qin Yuan... No matter what, she never thought that Qin Yuan would come so soon.Just now Xianglu taunted her in front of her, and the decree in her hand was originally taken by Qin Yuan secretly.

She knew that she could not escape the crime of living, so she hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down in front of Qin Yuan: "Your Majesty! Our Zhen'er died unjustly, and the concubine just seems to let him rest in peace, who knows that he will not let him go?" Pass me, Zhen'er is His Majesty's own son, I beg Your Majesty to be the master of Zhen'er!"

Qin Yuan frowned tightly after hearing her words, he looked at Concubine Shu: "I heard someone say that you secretly moved the forbidden army in the palace?"

Concubine Shu saw that he was here to question her teacher, so she burst into tears: "Your Majesty...the concubine is guilty, but...but the concubine is also for our Zhen'er. Not to mention our Zhen'er He died for no apparent reason, now that everyone else has gone, and some people have stolen his body, the concubine is really in a hurry to do this!"

Qin Yuan frowned even more when he heard what she said.

Concubine Shu continued to cry: "Your Majesty...the concubine only wants Zhen'er to rest in peace, and asks Your Majesty to be the master for Zhen'er."

Just when she said this, Qin Yuan looked at Xiang Lu who was beside him.

Xiang Lu also looked at him at this moment, and the two of them seemed to understand something in each other's eyes.

At this time, Qin Yuan turned his head to look at Concubine Shu who was kneeling beside him and crying, "I already knew about Zhen'er when I came here, but how did you know that Zhen'er is in the uterus, Concubine Shu? As a harem concubine, you are not allowed to do politics, let alone use the soldiers in the imperial city."

Concubine Shu knelt on the ground and pleaded guilty: "Your Majesty, I know that I have made a big mistake. As long as Your Majesty finds out the whereabouts of Zhen'er, I am willing to accept all punishment!"

Qin Yuan frowned after hearing her words: "According to what you mean, you think Zhen'er is with the prince now?"

Concubine Shu replied without hesitation: "Of course, if I am not fully sure, I will not risk the crime of treason and immorality to come to the East Palace. If your majesty does not believe it, you can go to the prince's bedroom to check. If the prince is not in it, then the matter of Zhen'er will be sure." It has nothing to do with the prince."

After Xianglu heard this, he sneered, and he also came to Qin Yuan at this moment: "Your Majesty, I just got up today and heard someone said that the imperial concubine and empress surrounded the East Palace with soldiers from the imperial city. I think His Royal Highness is a Crown Prince, how could he be so humiliated by concubines in the harem?"

Concubine Shugui just wanted to explain something for herself, Qin Yuan nodded her head: "King Nanling also makes sense."

Xianglu continued at this moment: "Since the imperial concubine has said that she is willing to bear all the punishments from His Majesty, then Your Majesty should speak first. If His Highness the Crown Prince stays in the bedroom well, and there is no Eighth Highness in the East Palace If His Royal Highness is so humiliated today, how should His Majesty plan to deal with the imperial concubine?"

After hearing this, Concubine Shu suddenly panicked. Seeing Xianglu's indifferent face, she suddenly realized that something was wrong.

"King Nanling, how dare you interfere with His Majesty's family affairs?"

Concubine Shu still has some weight in her words in the harem these years, but now no one knows how much she means in Qin Yuan's heart.

After hearing what she said, Xianglu said to Qin Yuan again: "Your Majesty, if you only talk about Axue, it is indeed a family matter. As a foreign relative, I really shouldn't interfere with this matter. But Axue is my big brother." My prince, if this matter gets out, has your Majesty thought about how the prince will establish his prestige in the future? So I boldly ask your Majesty to make a decision first."

As soon as Qin Yuan arrived at the East Palace, he stood outside and listened to what Xianglu and Concubine Shu had said.At this moment, his head was hurting a bit, he rested his forehead and lowered his head to think for a while, then said: "Okay, if this matter is really done by the prince, then I will confine the prince to the East Palace, and then this matter will be handed over to the Ministry of Punishment and Dali. The temple will investigate and deal with it. If this matter has nothing to do with the prince..."

"Concubine Shu."

When Concubine Shu Qin Yuan called her, her whole body trembled suddenly.

Concubine Shu looked up at him: "Your Majesty..."

Qin Yuan had a cold face: "It is indeed a serious crime for you to mobilize the forbidden army without permission today. If the prince did not do this. I have to deal with you to appease people's hearts, but I still have to take into account the face of the prince and princess, so if you This matter is just groundless, so you will be grounded in your own palace and never come out again."

Concubine Shu was stunned when she heard this...

What Qin Yuan meant was to ground her without revoking her status?But what's the difference between being confined in the palace and never being able to get out again?If this is the case, then she will no longer be able to get in touch with the outside world, let alone push her only son to the crown prince.

After hearing Qin Yuan's treatment, Xiang Lu responded, "Your Majesty is wise!"

Concubine Shu saw that there was no room for change in this matter, so she said: "If this is the case, the concubine is willing to be punished. But please make the decision for Zhen'er, my poor child cannot just be trampled in vain."

Qin Yuan nodded after hearing her cry: "That's natural, Zhen'er is my own son, so I will naturally make decisions for him."

After finishing speaking, he signaled Wang Ping beside him to enter Qin Xuechuan's bedroom.

Wang Ping bent down and replied: "Yes, Your Majesty, the old servant respects the order!"

After finishing speaking, he took the two young eunuchs behind him to the door of the sleeping hall.He gestured to the two people behind him, and those two people gently opened the door of the temple.

Everyone in the palace knew that the prince's body was weak, and he was ill in bed recently, so Wang Ping deliberately walked lightly when he entered.

This matter has been simmering for a whole day, and it was already dusk when Wang Ping entered Qin Xuechuan's bedroom.

At this moment, some palace people lit up all the candles on the candlesticks.The bedroom suddenly became brighter.

At this time, Qin Yuan who was staying outside was sitting on a chair waiting for news from Wang Ping, but Wang Ping had been in for a long time.It's not out yet.

The expression on Xianglu's face suddenly changed at this moment. He was calm and unhurried just now, but now his brows were slightly wrinkled, but there was a trace of complicated expression on his face.

Qin Yuan asked Concubine Shu to get up and stood aside. After all, she was still a concubine now, even if he wanted to punish Concubine Shu for her crimes, he had to save the face of the royal family.After all, Concubine Shu still has two children.

Qin Yuan knew that Qin Xuechuan had been recovering from illness, and it was inconvenient for so many people to enter his bedroom, so he sent people around him to check.In this way, it won't be unfair, but today's incident happened a little suddenly, and there are many doubts...

Just when he was thinking this way, Wang Ping, who had been in the bedroom for a while, suddenly ran out of the bedroom in small steps with a hasty expression.

He knelt down in front of Qin Yuan at once, his eyes were erratic, as if he had been frightened by something: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."

Qin Yuan asked sharply after seeing him like this: "I ask you, is the prince in the palace?"

Wang Ping faltered and said: "Q...Qi Your Majesty, the prince... is not in the palace, the old servant led people to search carefully, but no trace of the prince was found..."

After hearing this, Qin Yuan's expression became gloomy, and he stood up suddenly: "You really didn't see the prince?"

Wang Ping knelt on the ground: "This old servant dare not lie to His Majesty!"

After hearing this, Concubine Shu let out a long sigh of relief, she knelt down beside Qin Yuan and began to cry: "Look, Your Majesty! Just like what the concubine said, the crown prince killed the concubine's Zhen'er Not to mention, now even his dead body is not spared, I beg Your Majesty to make decisions for my concubines and Zhen'er!"

Xianglu saw Concubine Shu pouring a pot of dirty water onto Qin Xuechuan, so he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, please don't slander the Crown Prince just because of a moment of confusion, it was the fault of the guards that day that His Royal Highness passed away due to illness, and it has nothing to do with His Highness the Crown Prince. Nothing to do."

Concubine Shu was crying so sadly at this moment, she grabbed Qin Yuan's clothes and said, "Your Majesty, it was the prince's idea for the guards to punish Zhen'er. If it is said that this matter has nothing to do with the prince, the concubine will not believe it." What's more, the guard who was dealt with by Dali Temple was originally the prince's guard. The concubine's Zhen'er died so unjustly, I beg Your Majesty to give Zhen'er justice."

Qin Yuan's brows moved slightly after seeing Concubine Shu's appearance. At this moment, he said: "Come here, go and find out where the prince has gone. After finding the prince, send the prince to me. I want to ask the prince personally. .”

"Yes!" After finishing speaking, the imperial guards and guards who followed were about to go outside to look for Qin Xuechuan.

Concubine Shu finally stopped crying at this moment, she still said with a very sad look: "Your Majesty, after you return Zhen'er's innocence, I hope our Zhen'er can reach bliss as soon as possible. After all, I will be a concubine in this life. I'm sorry Zhen'er."

After hearing what she said, Qin Yuan stretched out his hand: "Zhen'er is also my son, and I can't forgive him, so you should get up first."

Seeing this, Concubine Shu slowly passed her hand over, and she was pulled up by Qin Yuan.At this moment, she was wiping tears while looking at the group of chaotic guards outside.

Now that the matter has come to this point, she must remove Qin Xuechuan's stumbling block.

Qin Yuan and those people were waiting in the main hall of the East Palace. Some were happy about Qin Xuechuan's misfortune, while others were also worried about the Crown Prince.At this moment, the minds of the people kneeling outside the main hall and outside are different.

Just as the sound of soldiers' armor rang outside, a voice suddenly came from the gate of the East Palace: "I heard that someone is looking for me?"

But at this moment, a palace official came forward and said: "Your Majesty... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has returned by himself!"

Qin Yuan frowned when he heard this, and he looked outside—at this moment, Qin Xuechuan, who was wearing a black cloak, was slowly walking into the main hall.
