Chapter 78 The Childless Emperor 77

"Third Prince, our emperor summons the King of Beidi and the third prince, please come in!" Su Lie said respectfully, and then walked in front to lead the way, followed by a group of soldiers escorting the King of Beidi and others to the palace.

Beidi King Tuoba Hong was gagged, blindfolded, and his hands were tied behind his back. He was escorted into the palace by Tuoba Yan himself.

When they entered the hall, they found Yuwen Ze sitting in the center, wearing gorgeous court clothes, and rows of court officials standing on both sides. In the middle stood Concubine Li Tuoba Jiao. Tuoba Jiao looked at her father being escorted in, and the only hope in her heart was shattered!

"Your Majesty, the Northern Di delegation has been arrived!" After Su Lie reported to Yuwen Ze, he bowed and slowly returned to his seat.

Yuwen Ze looked at everyone who had arrived and waved to the eunuch beside him to come forward to untie the blindfold of the King of Beidi and loosen the ropes that bound him.

"King of Beidi, we meet again!" Yuwen Ze said with a smile, but his tone was full of friendliness.

However, the King of Beidi did not appreciate it. He just snorted coldly to express his disdain.

Yuwen Ze was not displeased or angry because of the King of Beidi's indifferent attitude. Instead, he continued to smile and motioned the eunuch beside him to come forward.

Li Zongguan opened the memorial in his hand, with a solemn look, and read it word by word: "Today, the white tiger tributed by Beidi, driven by Li Fei Tuoba Jiao, ran rampant in the harem, hurting the concubines, causing injuries and even death to the people of Daqi. After investigation, it was found that the culprit was Beidi Tuoba Jiao!

At the same time, Tuoba Jiao entered the harem as a peace envoy of the Northern Di, which was a proof of the friendship between the two countries. However, he kept a male lover in the palace, which brought shame to the harem of the Great Qi and brought shame to the Emperor of the Great Qi. He destroyed the peace talks between the Great Qi and the Northern Di, so he was deposed as a commoner and imprisoned in the cold palace, never to be released. "

These words were like a huge rock thrown into a lake, stirring up a thousand waves. Everyone was shocked and began to talk about it.

"Isn't this Concubine Li going too far? She actually dared to drive the white tiger to hurt people!"

"Yes, and keeping a male lover privately is simply disloyal to His Majesty!"

"How could she do such a thing? She really brings shame to our Da Qi!"

"This Beidi sent such an unruly woman into the palace. His heart is damnable!"

…………

Tuoba Jiao's eyes widened in disbelief. She had never imagined that she would end up like this.

She looked at Emperor Yuwen Ze with pleading eyes, but Yuwen Ze just looked at her coldly without any mercy.

She turned her gaze to her father Tuoba Hong, who had once assured her that everything was arranged and she would become the empress in the future.

Tuoba Hong was hurt by his daughter's pleading eyes. He closed his eyes, turned his head away and stopped looking at her.

"No, that's not the case, Your Majesty, please listen to me..." Tuoba Jiao wanted to explain, but was interrupted by the emperor.

"The evidence is conclusive, what else is there to say? Drag him away!" Yuwen Ze said coldly.

"No, that's not the case! Father, save me! Father! That's not what you said at the beginning! Father!..."

The guards came forward and dragged Tuoba Jiao away. She struggled and her cries echoed in the palace. However, no one sympathized with her. Everyone felt that she deserved it.

It was as if a farce had come to an end, and no one cared whether Tuoba Jiao stayed or left.

Tuoba Yan became the representative of the Northern Di Kingdom and signed a peace agreement with the Great Qi again.

This agreement was more stringent than the last one, and was full of favorable terms for the Great Qi. These included a huge indemnity from the Northern Di to the Great Qi, the cession of a large area of ​​land, and a withdrawal agreement. In addition, it also added more harmonious trade agreements and trade exchanges between the two countries.

The Northern Di King Tuoba Hong, who had long lost his military power, was like a tiger with its fangs pulled out, old and powerless.

Faced with such a situation, he could only watch everything happen silently, but he could not change anything.

His former majesty and power have vanished, leaving only endless helplessness and sighs.

Kunning Palace

The previous dynasty was dealing with the affairs of the Northern Di Kingdom, while in the harem, the Queen was handling the affairs of Concubine Gao.

"After investigation, it was confirmed that Imperial Concubine Gao Yueru and Li Concubine Tuoba Jiao conspired to allow Baihu to commit murder, murder the heir to the throne, and harm innocent people. The evidence is irrefutable and the crime is extremely heinous! Li Concubine Tuoba Jiao secretly kept a male lover in the palace, and Imperial Concubine Gao Yueru knew about it but did not report it. She is considered equally guilty. I have reported this to the Emperor for punishment!"

After Qiu Shui finished reading out the investigation results, the eunuch who was in charge of issuing the decree had been waiting on the side. When he saw that it was his turn, he stepped forward and announced the imperial decree.

"Fengtian Chengyun Emperor, the imperial edict said:

"The Imperial Concubine Gao is vicious and has ruined her offspring. From today on, her position will be abolished, she will be demoted to a commoner, banished to the cold palace, and she will be confined to reflect on her mistakes. All the concubines' belongings will be taken back. I decree this!"

After the eunuch finished reading the imperial edict, the queen ordered the palace maid beside her to come forward and take off all the concubine's belongings from Concubine Gao, and then several eunuchs and guards escorted her away.

Gao Yueru stood there in a daze after hearing the imperial edict. When people approached her, she came to her senses and kept pushing the palace servants away.

"How dare you! Go away! Go away! Slander! This is the Gu family's slander against me! I want to see the emperor! The emperor will not treat me like this..."

Gao Yueru didn't expect to be exposed. She thought that even if she failed, it would be all the fault of Concubine Li Tuoba Jiao. She was just holding a banquet, what did it have to do with her!

She couldn't believe this would be the result!

The Queen saw the fight going on and scolded, "Gao, do you really want me to tell you? You know exactly whose child Princess Mingyue is!"

As soon as the queen finished speaking, everyone present took a deep breath, unable to believe that there was such a hidden secret...

Gao Yueru froze on the spot when she heard that.

She looked at the queen in disbelief. How did she know? How could this be leaked?

The queen looked at her coldly, her eyes full of disappointment and anger. This woman actually did such a shameless thing, it was simply a disgrace to the royal family!

Seeing that Concubine Gao was determined to fight to the very end, the Queen raised her lips slightly and told Qiu Shui to bring the person up.

Soon, two figures were escorted into the palace by the guards.

When everyone looked closely, they saw an old nanny with wrinkles all over her face and Concubine Gao's personal maid Caiyun standing there with their heads down, both of them with terrified looks on their faces.

Gao Yueru recognized the old lady at a glance. Her face turned pale as paper and her body began to tremble uncontrollably.

"Why, Concubine Gao, are you excited to see an old friend?" the Queen asked in a low voice.

Gao Yueru shook her head vigorously, refusing to admit that she knew the old lady.

"It doesn't matter if you don't admit it. She knows you anyway. Nanny Hua, raise your head and take a good look at who is in front of you." The queen said in a sharp tone.
