Chapter 169: It Was Deliberate
Come and apologize." Marquis Sheng Lai said lightly.
When Eunuch Cui heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned: "This is not something to do."
"Hurry up, is there anyone inside?"
"The Queen is inside, why don't I go and spread it?"
"Um."
Eunuch Cui quickly ran into the room, and soon ran out: "Marquis, the Emperor and the Empress invite the Marquis in."
"Okay." Marquis Sheng Lai nodded, then took Sheng Hangu up his leg and walked into the imperial study room.
"The old minister will meet the emperor and join the empress." Old Marquis Sheng and Sheng Hangu said on their knees on the ground.
"Okay, get up!" The emperor waved his hand and signaled Marquis Sheng Lai and Sheng Hangu to get up.
The emperor picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, then looked at the Marquis Shenglai and said, "Sheng Lixin, you are here just in time. I am about to discuss with you how to deal with Feng Chongjun."
"Your Majesty, don't worry, I brought Hangu to apologize." Marquis Shenglai said respectfully.
"What are you guilty?" The emperor raised his eyebrows.
Marquis Sheng Lai hesitated for a moment, but still said with a slight bullet and said, "I am not strict in discipline, which makes Han Gu confused."
"Oh? That's right, I know. Since Hangu has admitted his mistake, please forgive him." The emperor looked at Marquis Sheng Lai and said, "But Hangu, you are a blessing in disguise."
"Ah?" Sheng Hangu didn't understand what this meant and looked at the emperor in confusion.
"Okay, Your Majesty, why are you scaring the child?" The Empress was stunned when she saw Sheng Hangu being made, and couldn't help but smile, "Your Majesty, don't keep it a secret, tell Hangu why!"
The emperor laughed when he heard this: "Feng Yuanqing could not be the crown prince at all, but I cannot directly remove him when he is not at fault, so he can only get himself out of the position of crown prince."
"So your Majesty has a plan?" Sheng Hangu immediately reacted.
"Or what if it is? The Second Prince's Mansion is confined, and my personal guards are all at the door. Can your people be so easy to get in?" the emperor said with a smile.
Hearing this, Sheng Hangu finally realized that his every move had been discovered by the emperor, but it was not exposed.
"Your Majesty is wise!" Mr. Sheng praised.
"Okay, you old man, don't flatter me. You know, you came to apologize for whom." The emperor glared at Old Marquis Sheng, then turned to Sheng Hangu and said, "This matter has passed like this. Don't listen to your grandfather's nonsense. I will deal with this matter. You just need to protect yourself."
Shenghangu nodded quickly.
"And you old man, don't scare your grandson if you're okay. I, Shang Zhou, will have to rely on these young people in the future." The emperor glared at Old Marquis Sheng.
"Feng Wenhuo, don't call the old man one by one. I'm only one year older than you." Marquis Sheng Lai said dissatisfiedly.
Shenghangu was frightened when he heard the old marquis calling His Majesty the name he called him.
"You old guy, you are the bravest to call me by my name." The emperor couldn't help but curse, "But I haven't heard it for a long time, I miss it very much."
The Empress looked at the pair of old naughty boys and shook her head helplessly: "You two old men are almost the same as ordinary old men."
"Hmph, who is almost the same as him?" The emperor snorted unhappily and ignored him when he saw the Empress helping Marquis Sheng Lai talk.
"Your Majesty, now we are going to find the second prince's concubine. We are not discussing the issue of who is older and who is younger. You should solve this matter first!" The Empress reminded the emperor and said.
Hearing this, the emperor immediately restrained his laughter and looked at the Marquis Sheng Lai and said, "Old guy, do you have any news?"
"Yes." Marquis Sheng Lai nodded, "She came to Marquis' Mansion last night."
"Oh? Why did she come to the Marquis' Mansion?"
"She is here to find Zhiyao." Marquis Shenglai said.
"Look for Zhiyao?" The emperor frowned when he heard this, "What did she do for Zhiyao?"
"Report to Your Majesty, the second prince's concubine came to the Marquis's mansion to beat her sister, so I would frame Feng Yuanqing." Sheng Hangu lowered his head and did not dare to look into the emperor's eyes.
"So that's the case. I said why did you do such a big deal? It's really for your sister to avenge me." After hearing this, the emperor nodded, "I understand this matter. Since that's the case, you can go back first, and I'll deal with the rest."
"Yes, thank you Your Majesty." Marquis Sheng Lai bowed and said.
The emperor waved his hand, and the Marquis Sheng Lai and Sheng Hangu said goodbye and left.
"Your Majesty, Qi Wanting is really good at it." The Empress looked at the emperor and said worriedly, "Zhiyao doesn't know what's going on now. She's only healed by Feng Yuanqing's injury. Now she's beaten by the second prince's concubine. I really don't know how Zhiyao offended them."
"Don't worry, she must be fine. As for offending, what else can I do? I don't want to marry Feng Yuanqing." The emperor smiled slightly, "But Zhiyao is a smart person."
As soon as this was said, the queen suddenly thought of something: "Did you think it was Zhiyao who kidnapped Qi Wanting?"
When the emperor heard this, he was stunned at first, then stared at the queen and thought for a long time: "You have said this possibility."
When the Empress heard this, she was shocked: "Your Majesty, are you the Yao of doubt?"
The emperor did not speak, but was silent.
"Your Majesty, you have to believe Zhiyao! How could she have taken Qi Wanting to abduct?" The Empress couldn't help but get anxious when she saw the emperor not speaking.
"Okay, I didn't say she would kidnap Qi Wanting. I just think Zhiyao should know the whole story of this matter." The emperor explained.
The Empress was relieved when she heard this.
Suddenly a carriage galloped in front of the Second Prince's Mansion, a woman in ragged clothes and disheveled hair was thrown down. The two guards at the door rushed forward when they saw it and found that it was the Second Prince's concubine.
One of the guards immediately squatted down to check, but fortunately the second prince's concubine was just unconscious and was not injured.
"Hurry, go and report to Your Majesty!" The guard ordered another guard, and he ran into the mansion quickly.
The hour of Xu was over, and there were fewer pedestrians on the road, but it still attracted some people to watch. When they saw the unconscious second prince's concubines, they started to talk, and some good people even followed up to watch the fun.
When the butler arrived with the servants from the mansion, he happened to see a group of people watching the second prince's concubine.
Seeing this scene, the butler's face changed drastically. He immediately rushed up with his servants, scolding everyone, "What to look at? What to look at? Isn't there a place where you, the untouchables, can you, look at random at the door of the Second Prince's Mansion?"
As soon as the butler spoke, the onlookers immediately stopped talking and retreated.
Seeing this, the housekeeper was relieved. He quickly ordered his servants to carry the second prince's concubine into the mansion, and then hurriedly closed the mansion door.
But even so, there was no way to stop the gossip, and a gust of wind spread throughout the capital.
For a time, all kinds of rumors spread everywhere in the capital, and even the morning court came to discuss this matter privately, and everyone was speculating on the real situation behind the matter.
"This time Prime Minister Qi is shameless. The second prince's concubine is so unrest in the prince's house that she insists on running out, and she is kidnapped. Isn't this explicitly telling others that the second prince's concubine disobeys the imperial edict?"
"This incident has greatly lost the royal face."
"yes!"
"I think this incident is not a coincidence, it is very likely that it was done intentionally," said an official suddenly.
"Oh?" Everyone was stunned when they heard this and looked at the official together.
