The road of the favorite concubine in three lives is destined

After Defei recovered, the Empress Dowager and the Queen went to visit Defei that day, and the Empress Dowager claimed that she was sick. She took the opportunity to build momentum. First, she could implement her plan with the Queen after a while. Second, she could wrongly accuse Defei and let Defei's father defend her. She could also alienate the Emperor and Defei's father, saying that Defei was unlucky. The palace maids, eunuchs, and ministers who had cooperated with the Lin family in the previous dynasty all said that Defei was unlucky. The Empress Dowager fell ill after seeing Defei once. This Defei was really not a good omen.

In the previous dynasty, there were even ministers who reported that the Defei was unknown.

The emperor thought, is this the queen's plan? What's the plot? He clearly doesn't favor Concubine De anymore, but he is just afraid that she will get hurt. What's the plot?

At this time, a minister said, "I have something to report."

The emperor waved his hand and said

The minister said that the emperor had heard that the weather had changed strangely recently, and it might be caused by evil spirits. The empress dowager fell ill after seeing Concubine De, which was not a good sign.

The emperor said, how dare you! Do you think that Concubine De is a demon? Do you want to interfere in the affairs of my harem?

Huang's father said anxiously, Your Majesty, please see clearly that our daughter has been gentle and virtuous since she was a child, and has never been the evil thing that others say she is.

At this time Zhang Duo stood up to speak for Concubine De and said, "Your Majesty, I am an old acquaintance of the Huang family. The character of the Huang family can be proved by the common people. People from the Huang family can definitely not be evil."

At this time, the minister who had just said that Concubine De was an evil spirit said, "My Lord, everyone knows that you have good relations with the Huang family. Everyone knows that you and Concubine De were engaged and that you were childhood sweethearts. What are you thinking of speaking for Concubine De now?"

The emperor slammed the dragon table in anger and said shut up. All the ministers knelt down and asked the emperor to calm down.

The emperor said, "Are you saying that the Prince Consort and Empress Defei have an affair? You are so bold, Empress Defei is my concubine now. How dare you slander my woman? Where do you put me? Who gave you such courage? Speak."

The minister who had just spoken was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. He wiped his sweat with his sleeves and said, "Your Majesty, I am wrong. I said the wrong thing. Please punish me, Your Majesty."

The emperor said, it is time to punish you. Come, put him in the Sky Prison and behead him in public at noon tomorrow.

Hang his body on the bridge and let the world see it. No one will dare to say anything about my woman in the future.

退朝

After the court was dismissed, the chief eunuch beside the emperor found Zhang Duo and said, "Your Highness, please don't leave yet. The emperor has something to tell you. Please come this way."

The eunuch brought Zhang Duo into the palace.

Zhang Duo knelt down and said, "Greetings to the Emperor."

The emperor said, get up, Prince Consort

Do you know why I called you here?

Zhang Duo replied, I don’t know.

The emperor said, as my sister's consort, you just spoke for my Defei in the court. Do you think what you did was right?

After hearing this, Zhang Duo quickly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I have no ulterior motives. Your Majesty, I was in a hurry just now, so I said the wrong thing. Please forgive me."

The emperor said, "Get up, you look scared. I just want to say that since you and Concubine De have an engagement, you should be careful with your words and don't let others gossip about you."

Zhang Duo said, Your Majesty, I know.

The emperor said, "Besides, you are now the prince consort. I don't want my sister to know about this and be sad, so you should be more careful with your words in the future. Don't let people with ulterior motives use this to get involved. Do you understand?"

Zhang Duo said, Yes.

The emperor said, "You should go down and spend more time with my sister."
