After giving up being the wife of a powerful official, Ling Yunlu became a concubine

"The Crown Prince ordered me to revise the Emperor's diet and daily life..."

One of Liu Zongyuan's jobs in the Hanlin Academy was to record the emperor's diet and daily life.

These records were compiled so that the imperial physicians could better understand the emperor's physical condition.

The Duke frowned. This matter could be a big or small matter.

"The emperor has been in poor health recently, and the imperial physician has been recording it every day. The documents you have are not unique, so the problem should not be too serious."

A hint of hesitation flashed across Liu Zongyuan's face.

"But the people who checked Ping'an's pulse these days are also the prince's men."

The Duke looked at Liu Zongyuan in confusion, "You mean, the imperial physician didn't keep a record of it?"

Liu Zongyuan nodded.

He leaned closer to the Duke, "The Crown Prince poisoned the Emperor."

The Duke was so frightened that he stood up from his chair.

"How do you know these things?"

Liu Zongyuan hung his head.

"Every time, the prince did not avoid his son."

The Duke stamped his feet and said, "You are so confused!"

"The prince is the king, and we are the subjects. As subjects, we all serve the royal family."

"So, the fewer secrets of the Heavenly Family you know, the longer you can live."

"Since the prince is not shying away from you, he is determined not to let you live."

"When the time comes, he can just give you a random name and chop off your head!"

The Duke couldn't help but feel fortunate that the Crown Prince had stepped down.

Otherwise, Liu Zongyuan would lose his head.

"Fortunately, he is not the emperor's biological son, and the second prince has revealed it."

"Now, you have no choice but to put all the blame on the prince."

"When the time comes, I will put aside my pride and beg the Second Prince to see if I can escape punishment."

"I'm causing trouble for my father!"

Liu Zongyuan and the Duke had just finished their discussion when the people sent by the Second Prince to arrest him arrived.

The two of them had planned everything, but they hadn't expected that the Second Prince would not meet the Duke at all.

He imprisoned all the prince's party members in the Sky Prison.

As soon as he ascends the throne, they will all be beheaded.

The Duke couldn't even see the Second Prince.

In a hurry, the Duke remembered Concubine Liu who was married to the Prince of Qi.

Only then did he ask someone to pass the information in.

Although Xiao Minshen banned Concubine Liu from entering, he did not say that no one else was allowed to enter.

Therefore, the person sent by the Duke met Concubine Liu very smoothly.

When Concubine Liu heard that her brother would be beheaded, she panicked.

She asked her maid to inquire and found out that the King of Qi was not in the mansion.

She ordered her maid to wait at the door every day.

When she heard that the King of Qi had returned, she ordered the old woman who was guarding her to let her out.

The old woman thought that maybe the King of Qi was just angry at the time and confined the concubine.

Now that I'm back, maybe I won't be angry anymore.

Doing a favor to Concubine Liu would also be good for her.

So the old woman let the man out.

At Shen Yunjin's command, the old woman was tied up by the others and beaten with twenty boards.

Because of this, she almost lost her life.

Her in-laws came to visit her.

"How did you get into this mess?"

"You see, after Concubine Liu entered the palace, the prince never stayed at her place once. It is obvious that the prince does not like this concubine."

"Although there has never been a princess in the Prince Qi's mansion, the Prince Qi has entrusted all affairs to Concubine Shen to take care of."

"Instead of hugging Concubine Shen's thigh, you go to burn a small temple without incense?"

The old woman was also very regretful. She was also bewitched at that time.

I thought that Concubine Liu was young and beautiful, while Concubine Shen had already given birth to two children.

What if the prince falls in love with Concubine Liu again?

What if she sells well and gets some benefits?

This time, she suffered a big loss.

Not only did she fail to please the prince, but she also offended Concubine Shen. She will definitely not have a good life in the future.

"My dear, can you help me to say a good word to Miss Jinzhi?"

She held her in-laws’ hands.

Unexpectedly, the other party stood up coldly.

"I came to see you out of kindness, but you wanted to harm me. It seems that our two families don't need to visit each other anymore."

"I didn't mean that!"

The old woman felt very wronged.

"Jinzhi's maids are all on the side of the queen. You asked me to offend Concubine Shen for you, so what are you doing if not harming me?"

"If it weren't for the fact that your daughter gave birth to a grandson for my family, I wouldn't even bother to come and see you."

After saying this, the in-law left angrily.

He has no brains at all, yet he tries to take advantage of others. It's really true that ugly people are the most evil!

After listening to Concubine Liu's intermittent narration, Xiao Minshen roughly guessed the situation.

"Why don't you ask your father why he doesn't come forward?"

Concubine Liu was crying while talking about Liu Zongyuan, and at this time, all the makeup on her face was smudged.

She raised her head and looked at Xiao Minshen.

"My father said that if the prince showed up, he would be more useful than others."

"You were deceived by your father!"

Concubine Liu was so frightened that she forgot to cry. She just stared at Xiao Minshen blankly.

"I have always been at odds with my second brother. If I stand up for your brother, I'm afraid your brother won't see the sun tomorrow."

Liu Shishi sat down on the ground.

"Then why did father ask me to ask the prince to intervene?"

Xiao Minshen sneered.

"Because your father wants to kill someone with a borrowed knife!"

"Impossible! My father values ​​my brother very much, so he specially brought me and my brother back to the Duke's Mansion, and my brother was specially included in the family tree."

"Since your brother is a princeling, if the prince falls, all the princelings will die."

"Since your brother is a member of the prince's party, the Duke's Mansion will not be able to escape the fate of being executed."

"Unless the Duke draws a clear line between you and me and you and my sister are expelled from the group."

"In this way, he can protect the Duke's Mansion."

Liu Shishi covered her ears, "Impossible! Impossible!"

Xiao Minshen snorted coldly.

"If you were not my concubine, I would not bother to explain these principles to you in detail."

"I am telling you this now because I don't want to bring any disaster to Prince Qi's Palace because of you!"

The Duke is an old minister who has fought alongside the Emperor.

After being immersed in the imperial court for so many years, he must have his own network of connections.

Liu Zongyuan is not the main culprit. With the Duke's ability, it will definitely not be a problem to rescue Liu Zongyuan.

It's just that this process is very risky.

For the sake of his ancestors and grandchildren, the Duke wanted to bring down the Prince of Qi's Palace.

He underestimates himself too much!

Xiao Minshen hates the feeling of being plotted against.

"Go back to the Duke's Mansion and tell your father that if your father doesn't save your brother, I will have someone go to the prison and make your brother say that everything he did was ordered by the Duke."

"In that case, wouldn't I have offended my father?"

Liu Shishi's IQ is finally online now.

"Do you think you can still rely on your father after what happened to your brother?"
