"Your Majesty, I am a human being and naturally I have selfish motives. The eldest lady of the Gu family has been kind to my son, and she had a very pleasant conversation with my father. I dare not do anything that violates the law, so I can only do my best. Let the grievances of the eldest daughter of the Gu family be heard by Heaven."
The old emperor was very angry when he saw these facts, but the censor's words were reasonable and well-founded. No matter how dissatisfied the old emperor was, he could not drag the person out to behead him.
"You dare not deal with it privately," the old emperor said, not covering up his nonsense at all. "Do you dare to say that you have no selfish motives when you send these documents to me?"
The censors who wrote the excerpt to impeach Concubine Gu and Mrs. Gu were also smart. It was not good for them to only write about Mrs. Gu and Concubine Gu in the whole article, and they must not mention the fifth prince at all.
Although she was not happy about the appearance of an imperial concubine, she would not take action for an imperial concubine. The reason why she took action was just to show Qin Jiyan, so that Qin Jiyan could see that she, the imperial concubine, was treating him. How caring.
The censor not only found evidence that Mrs. Gu was digging into Wu Yun's tomb, but also the Gu family's attitude towards the matter at that time.
The censor is indeed capable, or Qin Jiyan has done a lot of work for this matter.
After all, Mrs. Gu is an elder, and Gu Qiancheng can only accept it after suffering a big loss, but Mrs. Gu doesn't know what is enough.
As soon as Lord Feng arrived at the imperial study, the old emperor threw all the papers on the table to impeach Concubine Gu at Lord Feng's feet, "Tell me, what is going on?"
In the morning court the next day, after the business was done, several forces, as if they had made an appointment, began to criticize the Gu family and Concubine Gu, and insisted on Mrs. Gu digging the Wu family's tomb.
How can Concubine Gu be any better off with such a wife who knows no bounds and doesn't even spare the dead
Not to mention that she was sick before, but this time when the emperor intended to promote her to the imperial concubine, she was almost dead. Does this mean that Concubine Gu is not blessed and cannot bear such a great blessing
The old emperor sneered, "Do things according to the law? What kind of law do you follow? Are you bringing this mess of information to me?"
No woman in this palace wants to see Concubine Gu promoted to imperial concubine, especially Concubine Shu and Concubine De.
All the above-mentioned human and material evidences are present, which shows how much Concubine Gu’s mother bullies others!
As for the queen
The old emperor was angry and angry. When he opened the paper and saw another paper impeaching the Gu family, the old emperor threw it on the table without even looking at it.
Concubine Gu fell ill every three days in the palace. Is it because Concubine Gu had a conflict with the palace
The women in the harem are locked up in the palace. They have no contact with people and things outside, but they are the most well-informed. Within an hour, the women in the harem knew that Concubine Gu was reprimanded by the emperor.
Concubine De was pruning her pot of green pine. After listening to the scissors in her hand, she paused for a moment, and then continued pruning as if nothing had happened. When she finished her work and put down the scissors, Concubine De said calmly: " Go and send a message to my nephews, asking them to be smarter and don’t forget what they should say tomorrow.”
The old emperor quickly cut through the mess, and after retreating from the court, he left Lord Feng and Qin Jiyan behind and asked them to go to the imperial study room to discuss matters.
The emperor felt irritated, slapped the dragon chair and said: "That's enough, shut up."
Fake illness
However, everyone ignored the old emperor's embarrassed expression, and one by one quoted all the evidence and said that Mrs. Gu and Concubine Gu should hang themselves.
Mrs. Gu forced Gu Qiancheng to kneel down three times and kowtow nine times to pick her up. She also said that she would not return to the city unless Gu Qiancheng knelt down three times and knelt down nine times to pick her up in person. He also threatened Gu Qiancheng that if Mrs. Gu could not enter the palace in time to accompany her, it would be all Gu Qiancheng's fault.
The little eunuch thought this was a good job, but he didn't want to make the emperor angry. He was so frightened that he ran out crawling. When he came out and saw the maid in Gu Guifei's palace, he lost his face...
Because of this incident, the Gu family almost divorced their wife, and even called Mrs. Gu's brother to the house. But in the end, for the sake of Concubine Gu, the Gu family endured a step and just sent Mrs. Gu to the family temple.
"This matter concerns the imperial concubine's family, and I am not willing to handle it privately." Mr. Feng lowered his hands, but he did not admit his mistake.
The old emperor was furious. When he heard that it was related to Concubine Gu, he shouted with a straight face: "You don't feel good? If you don't feel well, why don't you go to the imperial physician? I'm not an imperial physician, so what's the use of calling me?"
At this moment, the young eunuch entered the palace and called a thousand words: "Your Majesty, your Majesty, the imperial concubine sent someone to say that she is not feeling well..."
Then there is no need to think too much. Concubine Gu is cheating the emperor and should be killed according to the law.
Really sick
If the government does not investigate matters, the censor will investigate them himself. After the investigation is completed, he will present them all to the emperor, so that the emperor can see who his favorite concubine is.
Concubine Gu also knew about sending the old lady to the family temple. If the old lady Gu had not made a huge mistake, given her identity and age, the Gu family would never have sent her out to the family temple.
Also, wasn’t Concubine Gu so sick that she was about to die? Why did she have the strength to kneel outside the palace for several hours when something happened to the Gu family? Is Concubine Gu really ill or fake
They were old people who accompanied the emperor all the way. In terms of seniority and family background, they were better than Concubine Gu. Concubine Gu always had to salute them before. After being promoted to Concubine Gu, she was half a level above them. When they met Concubine Gu, The noble concubine wanted to salute her instead, which was definitely unacceptable to Concubine De and Concubine Shu.
"Injustice?" The old emperor sneered, his eyes flashing sharply: "Are you sure she is the one who has been wronged?"
The same scene also happened in the palace of the Queen and Concubine Shu...
The old emperor read more than a dozen letters last night to impeach the Gu family and Concubine Gu. He faced the bombardment from the courtiers again early this morning, and his temper really couldn't get better, but...
"Your Majesty, I will act in accordance with the law." Mr. Feng is neither humble nor overbearing, and he is not afraid at all.
Just like a movie where the pause button was suddenly pressed, the officials who had been having a heated discussion just now closed their mouths and bowed their heads in silence.
At that time, Concubine Gu acquiesced to the Gu family to send Mrs. Gu to the family temple. She must have known what mistake the old Mrs. Gu had made. But…
Not only did Concubine Gu fail to help her mother recognize her mistake, but she also deceived the emperor after gaining favor and asked him to take her mother back.
"This slave understands." An inconspicuous little palace maid nodded lightly and bowed out.
If all the ministers who tell the truth are killed, who will dare to tell the truth in the future
The old emperor looked irritated, fearing that these people would continue to make trouble, so he waved his hand and said: "I have made my own decision on this matter and will withdraw from the court."
They dare to say that Concubine Gu has a vicious-hearted mother, and she herself is not much better; but they dare not say that the fifth prince has a doting and spoiled mother-in-law, and she herself is not much better, because the fifth prince has blood on his body. Half the emperor's blood.
