The result of the thorough investigation did not exceed the expectations of the Tian family and his son. The person who did it was in the East Palace.
It was Xie Qingniao, the concubine who was now pregnant.
It is said that this is Yun Fenghuang's niece, and the suspect should be traced back to Xuanqing Palace.
Just following Xie Qingniao to investigate, he discovered that the source of the Three Corpse Insects originated from... Princess Sui'an!
Faced with this result, the Tian family father and son both breathed a silent sigh of relief.
Chunjia thinks it’s great that it’s not Yun Fenghuang.
As the prince had guessed, at this moment, at least, he really couldn't be cruel to Yun Fenghuang.
But if Yun Fenghuang doesn't forget to kill the Crown Princess even now, then he... really has to consider whether he has pampered Yun Fenghuang too much over the years, so that she feels that what she wants , must get
Moreover, it was difficult for him to explain to the prince and officials.
Yes, he is no longer the young emperor he was when he took office at the beginning of the year, and he needs to work hard to stabilize his throne.
Now that he has made up his mind, neither the ministers nor the prince can stop his will.
But Chunjia still wanted to work hard to be a good emperor who was good at accepting advice.
In this life, he has not been very good as a son, a father, or a husband.
The only thing I never want to let down is probably these thousands of miles of rivers and mountains and hundreds of millions of people.
The prince also felt that it was great that he was not Yun Fenghuang.
He is very self-aware. At present, his status, his power, and his weight cannot affect Yun Fenghuang at all.
Instead of getting into a life-and-death situation with this concubine right now, he would rather stay dormant for a while.
Since he was young, Yun Fenghuang was about to stand up, so no matter what he thought, it would be in his interest to delay him.
He will become stronger and stronger, and his position will be more stable, while Yun Fenghuang will lose his beauty more and more, and new people will be added to the palace. Maybe in two years, his father's thoughts will change, and this great enemy will be easily solved.
But the Crown Princess is not an ordinary concubine. Even though he doesn't care much about Wei Xiyan, she is the official wife of Ming Media. If he knows that the official wife has been murdered and has an heir, but does nothing special, it is hard not to think that the Crown Prince is weak and incompetent. So much so that you doubt whether supporting him is the right choice
So to be honest, when the emperor ordered a thorough investigation, the prince hoped more than the emperor that the real murderer had nothing to do with Yun Fenghuang.
As for the eldest princess of Sui'an, although her status as the daughter of Xiaozong was not good, she was much better in comparison.
"Father, I think that although I usually neglect to greet my aunts, I don't dare to be rude in any way." The prince didn't care whether this result was the truth or whether the Imperial City Secretary gave the order at the emperor's request. Come out with prevarication.
Regardless of whether others believe it or not, he, the sufferer, was the first to believe it impatiently, "I really can't believe why Aunt Sui'an treated the Crown Princess like this? Is it just because of the side concubine? However, the side concubine's status and treatment are second only to the main concubine, and she has taken the lead. She is pregnant, but how can she go to Longwang to plot to kill her mistress?"
The prince didn't show much sadness when he said these words, only a little regret.
Chunjia didn't care that he didn't have a deep affection for the Crown Princess. After all, Chunjia himself didn't have deep affection for his empress and first successor.
At this moment, he only said slowly: "It is said that Sui'an is here."
Sui'an went to the palace to cause a scene, and although Yun Fenghuang was deposed on the spot, there has been no movement in the ensuing turmoil. She is still resentful after all.
Especially, Minghui actually helped Yun Fenghuang!
This eldest sister is too repressive for concubine girls like her and Yun An, or concubine sisters.
If Meng and others hadn't aimed at Yun Fenghuang and opened fire, she might have been unable to resist the pressure and had to make certain compromises.
Even so, Sui'an was extremely angry in the mansion these past two days.
If the emperor is not a biological brother, then he really doesn't care about his sister that much!
If Kunze encounters something similar, let’s see if the emperor will hesitate!
At this time, she was ordered to enter the palace. At first, she thought that Chunjia was going to give her an accurate answer. Who knew that when she arrived at Taichu Palace and listened to the emperor's brief words about the incident, her heart sank, and she quickly argued: "There is no such thing! Qingniao I watched her grow up, she is not like this!"
As if she had thought of something, she said unnaturally, "But she is young after all. If she is bewitched by someone..."
"Are you talking about Yun Jieyu?" Chunjia was too lazy to ramble, so she interrupted directly, "Since the Queen was abolished that day, Yun Jieyu moved to the Huanqing Palace. Except for the King of Jin, the other emperor's heirs were unable to pay their respects. They could not come in or out. If someone is watching, what else can be done?”
Then he asked the prince, "Prince Jin, have you been to the East Palace these days?"
"Returning to my father, I don't have the fifteenth brother." The prince said solemnly, "The fifteenth brother has a good nature. Although he would greet his son when he met him outside, and his son also invited him to sit in the East Palace, but the tenth brother has a good nature. The fifth brother said that his son had just moved here not long ago, so he was afraid of being disturbed. Besides, he still had schoolwork to take care of, so he really couldn't get away. In short, the fifteenth brother had never been to the East Palace before, not to mention recently. "
After all, he was Yun Fenghuang's biological son. It was difficult for the relationship between the two parties to be harmonious.
The King of Jin was worried about going to the East Palace, and the prince was worried about his younger brother going to his place of residence.
To be able to meet each other outside and exchange a few polite greetings was already a sign that the two brothers were no longer on bad terms.
Chunjia said quietly: "Sui'an, can you hear me?"
Sui'an frowned: "His Majesty has spoken out about palace matters, of course."
The implication is, you want to protect Yun Fenghuang, what can I do
"Of course I didn't call you here for nothing." Chunjia was not angry either, and ordered people from the Imperial City Department to come up and confront Sui'an, "Three Corpse Insects caused trouble in the palace back then, and even caused the late emperor to have no heirs. This is a serious matter. Therefore, after the truth was exposed, the former harem was ordered to keep it secret, and the outside world had no idea! Even if Mrs. Xie is your adopted daughter, at her age, she should not have known about such a thing. "
"But as early as when she first entered the East Palace, you gave her a dowry and told her about this in private."
"He also implicitly hinted that it was because of this that you gave up the idea of having an heir and had nothing to do with you. That's why you treated her and Xie Qingque as if they were your own children."
"After that, Mr. Xie said he was respectful and grateful to you, but he was quite uneasy, and he increased the number of meetings with you... It is said that the relationship between your mother and daughter was originally very good, but for some reason, during that period, We talk in private, but we always get into trouble?”
Sui'an pursed her lips, her heart was in turmoil, and she had only one thought: It's over!
Xie Qingniao was able to infect the Crown Princess with three zombie worms, and indeed she knew it.
She initially disapproved.
Because even though she had many unspeakable opinions about her brother Chunjia, she still approved of Chunjia's methods.
How could the prince who was recognized by Chunjia for his talent and character be a fuel-efficient lamp
The possibility of being exposed under these two men is too high.
But at that time, she didn't know that her infertility was caused by Xie Wuzheng, and she hadn't angered Yun Fenghuang, and Yunfenghuang was still the queen... So when Xie Qingniao said: "Mother, even if I was raised by you, there is no such thing as I grew up in front of my aunt, but she is also my aunt after all. She has always treated the children of the Xie family well. Am I not a child of the Xie family? Even if something goes wrong, can my aunt stand by and watch? If I don't take risks, even if I have it now Hi, once the Crown Princess gives birth to a male heir, what will this child mean to me? This opportunity is once in a lifetime, if we don’t take action now, we, mother and daughter, will regret it every time we look at the Crown Princess’ face!”
Sui'an was finally shaken!
She thought this was true. The emperor and the prince were both difficult to deal with, but Yun Fenghuang's achievements were also very impressive.
Although Yun Fenghuang is not particularly doting on the nieces Xie Qingniao and Xie Qingque, and they are even a little unfamiliar because they don't get along very often, these two are her nieces in terms of etiquette and law, and they are also her nieces in terms of blood. What reason does she have not to What about protection
So the eldest princess acquiesced to the adopted daughter's approach.
Although Sui'an was quite worried about her infertility and was unwilling to handle the whole process personally, as long as she acquiesced and Xie Qingniao explained it to her attendants, someone would naturally take care of it.
Originally, she had been focusing on Xie Qingniao's pregnancy these days, but she didn't want to accidentally learn the truth about her extinct heir...
But how could he care about his adopted daughter
At this moment, being pressed by the emperor and asking questions, she felt that a disaster was coming. She thought that if Yun Fenghuang was still fine and still the queen, then... Even if she couldn't handle it, if the other side knew the news, she would probably not sit back and watch her cousin-in-law and niece. In crisis.
"..." Sui'an sighed in his heart, suppressed countless feelings, and said in a deep voice, "Even if we are biological mother and daughter, it's okay to have an occasional quarrel. If Your Majesty thinks that we are conspiring against the Crown Princess, then we have nothing to say. You can tell!"
She knew that since Chunjia told such details, there would probably be evidence behind it.
But for such a big thing, it was hard not to hold on to the faint hope that the emperor was just deceiving her.
Chunjia was silent. This silence made Sui Anxin's hair tighten. After a moment, he had an inexplicable expectation, that is, the emperor really had no evidence
"Prince, please go out." After only a moment, the emperor said slowly, "I will talk to your aunt alone for a while."
The prince glanced at Sui'an quietly, then lowered his eyes and said, "My son, I obey."
When the prince retreated, Chunjia quietly ordered: "Show them all to the eldest princess."
The people from the Imperial City Department quietly laid out a bunch of vouchers and brought over a few of Xie Qingniao's dowries.
Sui'an: "..."
The emperor didn't urge him, he just sipped the tea slowly. After waiting for a while, Fang ordered everyone to leave and even the witnesses were taken away. Then he said warmly: "Everyone has selfish motives. You don't have any biological heirs. Why?" It's understandable that Da Xie would consider it. It's just that things were done so loosely. If the Crown Princess knows about it, the Prince also knows about it. What will we do in the future?"
"Your Majesty..." Sui An felt extremely aggrieved. She always felt that something was wrong.
However, in the face of irrefutable evidence, the emperor did not scold, did not blame, and did not even say a word about how she could kill the tomb woman she personally chose...
Sui'an really couldn't put on a bad attitude. She lowered her head and whispered: "What are your Majesty's plans?"
"You are the daughter of the late emperor." The emperor sighed, "Although Wei is my carefully selected future middle palace, but the middle palace can be replaced, how much blood does the late emperor have in total? Minghui is about to die, can I still bear to deal with it? you?"
He shook his head and waved his hands tiredly, "Look at the people around you, hand over two of them, and I will convince the prince and princess."
Sui'an looked at him and suddenly felt a little pity in his heart.
Although the three sisters were very estranged from the Chunjia bloodline, they were still young when Chunjia ascended the throne on the fifteenth day, and they had known each other for many years.
The eldest princess still remembered how her younger brother looked when she first met him. He was young and high-spirited... In the blink of an eye, she discovered that although Chunjia was still in his prime, there was fatigue in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.
If you look closely, there are even a few fine lines.
"Your Majesty, don't you blame me?" Sui'an was silent for a moment and smiled to himself, "But even if your Majesty doesn't blame me, will the prince still hate me?"
Chunjia looked at her and said calmly: "The relationship between the crown prince and the crown princess is just ordinary. At most, it doesn't look good in terms of face. I will mediate for you."
Saying this is tantamount to announcing that he has given up on Wei Xiyan.
Sui'an was not happy, because even if Wei Xiyan died or was crippled sooner or later, Xie Qingniao would not be able to take over.
When the time comes, the princess will be replaced and she will still give birth to a legitimate son for the prince. So what will happen to what the mother and daughter conspired to do, apart from embarrassing Chunjia and his son
"Sui'an, you're grown up too. Your adopted daughter is already happy, and soon you will be an ancestor." The emperor seemed to understand her thoughts, sighed, and called someone closer. This was a rare occasion, and it was the first time since he took charge of the government. He advised sincerely, "Now you can no longer act according to your temperament as you did when you were a child. You always have to consider the causes and consequences, the pros and cons. Since you are now worried about being retaliated by the prince in the future, at the beginning, you either didn't do it or you did it. If you are more thoughtful, the prince and the princess will not be able to find out... Now that we are in a dilemma, why bother?"
Without waiting for Sui'an to speak, he added, "Actually, as the emperor's daughters, you, Minghui and Yun'an were relatively well off when you were young, but unlike the concubines, you need to scheming to survive in this palace. With these calculations, , naturally you owe the acumen and dexterity forced by the life-and-death friendship, but why should you do this? When you wanted your adopted daughter to serve the prince, didn't I stop you? Ah Huang kept silent, and made things difficult for the prince again and again. , isn't it creating opportunities for the Great Xie family? I know all this, but I didn't say anything. The prince himself is not a real legitimate son, and he also has a rather lonely past... If he is to establish a heir in the future, he must be a capable one. An outstanding heir, not necessarily a legitimate son."
"If you have that kind of ambition, you might as well spend your life teaching the emperor's grandson."
"But why do you have to make such a mistake?"
Sui'an understood the meaning behind his words. If he wanted to fight for the upper hand in the harem, in the past few decades, who has been as good as Yun Fenghuang
But Yun Fenghuang was still defeated.
It was because her heirs were not as good as the prince.
Sui'an and her daughter are far worse than Yun Fenghuang, and they want to play this trick. Isn't this humiliating themselves
