Princess Xianrong was scolded so badly that she couldn't even raise her head.
But what shocked and horrified her even more was what Queen Fang had just said, that Wei Yulong and Chu Jingxing were having an affair.
How is this possible? !
She just felt her mind was in a mess, and she didn't feel her legs getting numb until noon.
Summer is approaching and the weather is getting hotter. The sun becomes unbearable after a while.
People came in one after another from outside to report that an imperial edict had fainted.
Queen Fang's attitude was extremely cold. She didn't even raise her eyelids when she heard that someone had fainted.
It was still Xiao Gu who arranged to send him to the side hall to rest.
Those low-ranking officials could not even drink a sip of tea, and many of them could not bear it, but they had no choice but to endure it.
However, those in the palace, either royal relatives or imperial ladies, can still get some time to rest.
Princess Chang'an looked at Kong'er and pulled her daughter to her side. Seeing that she was distraught, she stroked her hair and comforted her: "These are not serious matters. The Queen is angry now. You should be careful. If she sees you like this, she will be in trouble again later."
The focus of Xianrong County Lady was not on this. She grabbed Princess Chang'an's sleeve, tears immediately fell, and she asked her sobbingly: "Mother, tell me, tell me, is the prince really..."
Princess Chang'an's expression became complicated.
She always knew that Lady Xianrong married Chu Jingxing willingly. When a woman falls in love, she is much more terrifying than a man.
For example, they cannot distinguish the priorities of things, let alone the word rationality.
She sighed in her heart, frowned as she looked at her daughter who seemed to be on the verge of collapse, and asked her coldly: "Why are you sad? Do you think your husband is a pervert?"
Of course not, Lady Xianrong quickly denied it.
Princess Chang'an said, "That's right. When have you ever seen a man like him being interested in women?"
He didn't like any of the dowries that Princess Xianrong brought with her.
And I have never heard of him being a playboy. How could such a man be the kind of person that Queen Fang said would do anything for a woman
"Since you know, what are you still worried about?" She looked at the look of sudden enlightenment on Xianrong County Lady's face, then glanced at Wei An who was listening to Princess Zheng's words from a distance, and said coldly: "The Queen just said that we don't have to leave the palace recently. It's more convenient to live in the palace. Don't you know what it means? At this critical moment, why are you still thinking about love? Cheer up and stop thinking about things you shouldn't think about."
Princess Xianrong realized it belatedly and got goose bumps all over her body. She clung to Princess Chang'an's sleeve and asked her in a low voice, "Mother, was it Wei An who did this?"
When she talked about Wei An, the fear in her heart naturally disappeared and was replaced by resentment.
She glanced at Wei An with resentment, then immediately turned her gaze back to Princess Chang'an, and asked with some hope and resentment: "Did she plan all this? I remember that the prince wanted Wei Yulong to come back, as if to deal with Wei An. The previous plan to plan Wei An failed, but was set up by Wei An and Shen Chen, causing Prime Minister Xia and the Xiao family to suffer heavy losses. The prince was almost mad with anger."
She still couldn't help but feel scared when she thought of Chu Jingxing's anger. She widened her eyes and said with some fear: "At that time, the prince was almost crazy with anger. He didn't close his eyes for several days. His favorite horse was also killed by him with a sword..."
At that time, she happened to go to the martial arts arena to find him and comfort him, but she was splashed with blood from the horse and was so scared that she couldn't eat for several days.
Then she heard from Nanny Yuan that Mr. Bai had returned and the prince had a new plan to deal with Wei An.
However, she had not seen much of the results of this plan. She only knew that the old princess had died, and she thought this was Chu Jingxing's revenge.
Who would have known that now there is a rumor that Chu Jingxing and Wei Yulong are having an affair.
Princess Chang'an brushed her hair lovingly, lowered her voice and leaned closer to her: "What else do you think? Who do you think Wei An cares about the most? Other people didn't treat her well back then, and it was the old princess who raised her. When the old princess died, she was the most angry, don't you think? And it was Wei Yulong who angered the old princess to death, and it was the prince who brought Wei Yulong back. If she doesn't frame the prince and Wei Yulong, who else would she frame?"
This is Wei An's revenge, there is no doubt about it.
She just wanted to bring disgrace to both Chu Jingxing and Wei Yulong.
In fact, she did it. For a girl, having an affair with a married man behind her back and angering her grandmother to death, these things were enough to make her sink into the lake.
Wei Yulong will never be able to turn things around in his lifetime, and his life will be worse than death.
And Chu Jingxing
If he really wants to fight for the position in the future, this hurdle will be a big trouble.
Now the whole capital city knows that he is a sex maniac. Not only did he not spare the maids around him, he even pissed off the grandmother to death, causing chaos in the city.
Thinking of this, Princess Chang'an couldn't help but feel a headache: "This girl is really too cruel."
Xianrong County Lady bit her lip, almost biting it through: "I don't know how the prince is doing."
Princess Chang'an was also a little worried.
Chu Jingxing was being scolded by Emperor Longqing.
In front of the ministers who came to the cabinet to answer questions, in front of the Jinyiwei commander Lin Sanshao, as well as Zheng Wang Shen Chen and others, Emperor Longqing did not give Chu Jingxing any face at all. He took a few memorials and threw them at his face, slapping him so hard that his head turned away. Then he sneered, "You are so capable! How can you do such a conscienceless and inhumane thing!"
Chu Jingxing's face was tilted to one side after being hit, and he knelt on the ground in silence.
Wei An's move was truly a stroke of genius. The timing was so precise and the plan was so meticulous and flawless that he didn't even have a chance to say no.
Anything he says now will sound like quibbling and will only make his reputation worse.
The Prince of Zhennan had already knelt on the ground, feeling grief-stricken: "Family disgrace should not be made public. I didn't want to bring up such a thing for others to talk about after dinner. My mother also didn't want to ruin Ah Long's reputation, so she asked us to keep silent. But who knew..."
Who knew that someone else had said it first
Prince Zhennan was embarrassed, ashamed and angry. He knelt down for a long time and begged Emperor Longqing to give him justice.
Emperor Longqing sneered at Chu Jingxing: "The old princess of Zhennan is an old noble, and even I have to give her some face when I see her. You are doing something worse than an animal now..."
