Favoring Concubines and Destroying Wife: Reborn, I Married to a Rich Man and Destroyed His Whole Fam

"I am here to plead guilty as well."

"I am here to plead guilty as well."

Hearing these words, Queen Zheng smiled. She glanced at Yun Zhao and said.

"You should handle these matters in the study, while your aunt goes to meet the concubines."

"Yes."

Queen Zheng ordered the palace maids to let the person in.

After Yang Guifei, Concubine Li and others walked in, they immediately looked around the hall but did not see Yun Zhao.

But their people clearly said that Yun Zhao had been in Queen Zheng's palace for several hours.

"Since you have come to plead guilty, each of you should kneel for half an hour."

Queen Zheng gave the order without waiting for them to speak.

"The minister and concubine follow the order."

The concubines knelt on the ground, looking unhappy.

Now that Empress Zheng was in power, they dared not offend her. They could only endure it and wait until their son became the Crown Prince and the Emperor, and then they would have many opportunities to take revenge.

Queen Zheng knew very well that Concubine Yang and Concubine Li were looking around.

She simply ignored it.

Now she sat and they had to kneel.

"Empress, I heard that Princess Chao'an also came to your palace. Why didn't I see her?"

Hearing this, Queen Zheng looked at Yang Guifei.

"Are you here to plead guilty, or to keep an eye on Princess Chao'an's actions?"

Hearing this, Yang Guifei immediately apologized.

"I am rude, please forgive me, Queen."

Queen Zheng sneered.

"The emperor has just passed away, but you are not sad, but you are all thinking about that position. You know, the emperor left a decree before."

what?

The emperor left a decree? What decree?

Is it for their prince?

Hearing this, all the concubines looked at Queen Zheng.

The concubines' faces changed again and again, and they looked at each other, all with a bad premonition in their hearts.

"My Queen, I don't know what the decree is."

Yang Guifei was bolder and asked.

Princess Li also echoed.

"Empress, what is the order?"

The other concubines also asked.

"Please let me know, Queen."

"Your Majesty, please speak."

Concubine Duan and Concubine Wu were extremely panicked. Could this be the order?

Impossible, how could the emperor allow these concubines to be buried with him. If it was the empresses below the rank of concubine, it would be possible, but they were all empresses with the rank of concubine. If they were allowed to be buried with him, the civil and military officials would not agree.

"The emperor has ordered that you be buried alive with him."

what?

"Impossible, I don't believe it. Your Majesty can't be so cruel."

"My Queen, I don't believe it either."

"Your Majesty, this is impossible. Someone must be interfering."

"Empress, the Emperor would never do this."

When the concubines heard this, they were in chaos and none of them believed that the emperor would make such a decision.

Queen Zheng didn't believe it either, but the emperor did leave such an order.

This decree was issued when the emperor was alive. She was present, as were Prince Hong and others. No more than six people knew about this matter.

"The Emperor said that four people are enough to be buried alive with the deceased. As for who will be buried alive, it will be decided by me and the Empress Dowager."

Hearing that only four people were to be buried alive, the concubines were relieved. But when they heard the following words, their faces changed again. Especially Yang Guifei and Li Fei and others, they had been fighting with Queen Zheng for more than 20 years, and now their lives and deaths depended on Queen Zheng's decision.
