Concubine Shu's attendant, who had already taken a step forward, quickly retreated...
The palace attendants in Taichu Palace were also shocked. Regardless of Concubine Shu, they immediately rushed in to report.
After a while, Chunjia, who was wearing regular clothes, walked out with a pale face. Without even looking at Concubine Shu next to her, she climbed into the imperial chariot and hurried away.
Of course, Concubine Shu couldn't inform Marquis Yongchun about the choice of his wife at that time, so she left on her own carriage and ordered him to follow her to Yanfu Palace.
When they arrived, the queen had already fainted two or three times.
When Chunjia entered the door, she happened to see the attendants supporting Gu Zhen and shouting to pinch people.
"You said Xiao Shi was rescued?" The emperor looked gloomy, glanced at him, and asked quietly, "What happened then?"
The waiter came to say hello and carefully explained: "No, it's because Dong Bu of the Tenth Prince's Palace... Bu was rescued from the well!"
Hearing this, Chunjia didn't say anything. Concubine Shu, who came in with her feet folded, couldn't help but let out a small cry, raised her sleeves to cover her face, and showed a look of horror in her eyes.
"Are all the people who serve Xiao Shi dead?" The emperor ignored the chaos at the Queen's side and went to the couch to see the Tenth Prince. The child's forehead was covered with wet strands of sweat or well water. He was stubbled, his eyes were closed tightly, and there was a trace of panic between his brows, and he was falling into a slumber.
He was proficient in medical science, stretched his legs to feel his pulse, breathed a secret sigh of relief, and scolded the people around him with a cold face, "Is it inappropriate to let the young prince play by the well, let alone let the prince fall into the well?!"
"Back to Bidong, the third prince was playing with the tenth prince in the east of King Chu's palace. The three princes wanted to hide and seek and shuttled among the grass and trees. Because the princes were young and the palace servants who were not allowed to serve him were exposed, they Traces, that’s why…”
Chunjia was too lazy to pay attention to those reasons. The royal heirs were born noble. Even if they were not favored by the emperor, they would not be surrounded by a group of people, let alone the children on the east side of the palace.
What's more, isn't the tenth prince the oldest among Kang Jian's legitimate sons
If there are no surprises, then I will be the future prince!
Therefore, if he didn't take good care of it, he didn't take good care of it. He didn't want to hear the reason!
Dangdong directly ordered the palace servants serving the three princes and those present at the time to be punished with death! Those who are not present will be punished with a cane and confiscation of salary according to their position.
Finally, he turned around and asked Concubine Shu: "I was so surprised just now. Did I think of something?"
Concubine Shu did not dare to hide it, and glanced at the queen before whispering: "When I go back to Bidong, before... there were some nonsense in the palace... I accidentally listened to it in my free time, but because it was too ridiculous, So I didn't take it to heart at all. I just heard that the Tenth Prince's accident was because he fell into a well, but it has something to do with that rumor, so I was shocked."
Chunjia asked: "What is the rumor? But what does it have to do with the incident involving the tenth prince?"
"Your Majesty..." Concubine Shu bit her lip, feeling very embarrassed. However, seeing that the emperor's face was not very good-looking, she did not dare to delay. She gritted her teeth and spoke quickly, facing the gaze of the palace attendant next to her, "Earlier. Gu Cairen's master and servant died tragically in the side hall of Yanfu Palace during the confinement period. Some ignorant palace people once talked privately, saying that... that thing was not done by humans! It was... not done by the biological mother of the twelfth prince! But Gu Cairen The talented person and the biological mother of the twelfth prince... were both lost in the well! So... "
Although she didn't mention the rumored series of speculations targeting the Queen, she knew it if Chunjia tilted her head and Yan Yin immediately came forward to describe the whole story in detail.
The emperor's complexion was originally not very good, but now it became increasingly clouded.
After telling Yan Yin to stay in front of the tenth prince, he walked out and ordered the queen to follow him.
Gu Zhenfu was almost helped into the Nuan Pavilion. After the others came out, she slumped to the east, crawled on the bed, and cried: "I... I can't help you!!!"
Did she really have nothing to say that time... After all, Chunjia had a total of three legitimate sons, and now if one of them counts, everything goes wrong, and none of them are safe!
When something happened to King Chu, the queen was very angry, aggrieved, and blaming the emperor. Now... now she really doesn't know what she should say
"Did I know when the rumors about Gu Cairen came out?" Chunjia looked at her and didn't even bother to say any words of blame. He thought helplessly that such a helpless queen might be a bit of a waste, but at least she wouldn't be. It will not cause any obstacles to the future new king.
As for the trouble this brings...
He is very young, so he can't tell, so he can do it himself.
Anyway, the country must never make a mistake and there must be no more Ji family members.
"... I know." Gu Zhen choked and said, "I... I sent people to investigate at that time, but it seems that the palace people spread the news by themselves!"
The emperor sighed and said: "If the people in the palace are talking nonsense, could someone instigate it... Since something like that happened, why didn't I move the palace to the east and clean it up?"
It was good that he didn't say that, but when he said that, Gu Zhen became even more sad: "When I go back to Bidong, I... I have been cleaned up."
The previous palace search failed to find out the real culprit who "murdered the imperial concubine", but Gu Zhen also took advantage of the opportunity to clean up.
That is not the residence of other hosts.
As for the Yanfu Palace, what happened to Gu Cairen's master and servant was so terrible, and the Queen was not afraid of death, so how could she remain indifferent? After that, I cleaned it up inside and out... But who knows, maybe there are some oversights
At this moment, Gu Zhen himself doubted whether he was qualified to be the queen.
That's why she cried: "Your Majesty, I have no concubine, and I am in the back position. I can neither respect the elders of the clan, nor share the worries of Your Majesty, nor can I take good care of the emperor's heirs... It would be better for Your Majesty to choose someone else from the Gu family. Xian Ke, please allow me to retire to the palace on your own initiative!"
