The concubine enters the palace? The princess empties the palace and goes into exile with the baby

Xie Junyan stood up and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I thank you so much for taking in the people of Zhao. I will never forget this kindness!"

Song Yao stood up and went to help Xie Junyan. "Prince Rong, you are so polite. Don't forget that you have made the greatest contribution to our successful rebellion. We haven't even repaid you yet. It's inappropriate for you to say this."

Xie Junyan pursed his lips and looked directly at Song Yao and Xiao Chi. "It is my honor to meet you!"

At this time, Eunuch Cao came with the palace maids to serve the dishes.

After Song Yao invited Xie Junyan to sit down, she said, "Prince Rong, from now on, you should treat this place as your home. Don't be polite."

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Xie Junyan nodded.

When all the dishes were served, Song Yao personally poured a glass of wine for Xie Junyan.

She raised her glass and looked at Xie Junyan, "Prince Rong, you've worked hard on this journey. Have a drink to relieve your fatigue. Tomorrow is a new day."

"Yes, Her Majesty is right." Xie Junyan raised the wine glass with both hands and drank it all in one gulp.

Song Yao said, "Prince Rong, please eat quickly. Don't be polite. Just help yourself to whatever you want."

"Yes." Xie Junyan nodded.

He was really glad that he had taken in Song Yao and the others. Otherwise, now that Zhao was destroyed, he would definitely have no way to seek revenge on Beilan.

Therefore, that decision at the time helped Song Yao and also helped himself.

After dinner, Xie Junyan said he wanted to go back to the Song family first, so Song Yao asked Eunuch Cao to prepare a carriage to take Xie Junyan.

After Xie Junyan and Eunuch Cao left, Xiao Chi's face finally fell. He said unhappily, "You were very enthusiastic about him."

Song Yao was about to get up to play with the children, but when she heard Xiao Chi's words, she paused and sat down again.

She looked at Xiao Chi, a little unhappy, "Why are you jealous?"

Xiao Chi felt a little aggrieved, "That's right, tell me yourself, are you very enthusiastic about him? You don't care about me when you eat, but you care about him. I feel so pitiful too."

"..."

Song Yao almost laughed out loud. She looked at Xiao Chi and asked, "You have a wife, children, a kingdom, and so many people supporting you. How can you be pitiful? Look at Xie Junyan. His brother listened to slander and made the people of Zhao miserable. Now Zhao is destroyed, his nephew is dead, and so many people have died. Tell me, who is more pitiful, him or you?"

Xiao Chi suddenly realized, "Then he is indeed a bit pitiful."

"That's right!" Song Yao said, "Giving him some warm regards now will make him feel at ease. He'll have to help us deal with the Beilan Kingdom later. He's also brought over a hundred thousand soldiers, adding to the original 300,000. Without him, how can you defeat the Beilan Kingdom? I'm afraid you'll end up like the Zhao Kingdom and the Mobei Kingdom."

Xiao Chi pursed his lips, "Well, you are right."

"Are you still jealous?"

"Don't eat."

Song Yao stood up and walked to his side, patted his shoulder, and said with a smile: "Look, your wife is so good, so outstanding, and so beautiful. It's normal for her to have suitors. You, don't be jealous all the time in the future. It's not appropriate."

"..."

Song Yao slipped away after saying this.

Xiao Chi came to his senses and was extremely angry.

What does it mean that it's normal for his wife to have suitors? What does it mean that he shouldn't be jealous all the time? What does it mean that it's inappropriate?

This guy!

Xiao Chi wanted to find trouble with her, but she was gone.

Xiao Sui Sui and the others were not playing in the palace, but outside. Seeing that she slipped away so quickly, Xiao Chi didn't bother with her as a woman.

He sat down again and drank his tea.

Just then, Qi Mo came into the hall with a bowl of medicine.

Before the person came over, Xiao Chi could already smell the medicine.

Qi Mo walked up to Xiao Chi with the medicine in his hand and said, "Your Majesty, it's time to take the medicine."

When Xiao Chi saw the bowl of medicine, his temples throbbed noticeably, "Why do you still want to drink it?"

Qi Mo was stunned for a moment, then answered as a matter of course, "Of course you have to drink it. The emperor will have to take medicine every day in the future to prevent those symptoms from appearing. If you don't drink it, those symptoms will appear one by one in you, and then the medicine will be useless."

Xiao Chi pinched his eyebrows. He really didn't want to drink this medicine. Not only was it bitter, but it also tasted very strong. It was like drinking poison.

However, if he didn't drink, Qi Mo would definitely go to find Song Yao immediately.

He had no choice but to take the medicine, frowned, and gulped it down.

Qi Mo handed him a glass of water, "Your Majesty, rinse your mouth."

Xiao Chi took the water and rinsed his mouth, and his mouth no longer felt so bitter.

He looked at Qi Mo, "Can this medicine really suppress those symptoms?"

Qi Mo nodded, "It's in the early stages now, so it can be suppressed. But if it develops to the late stages, even a Daluo Immortal would not be able to stop it. So Your Majesty must drink this medicine, only by drinking it can it be suppressed."

"understood."

He put the cup on the tray.

Qi Mo said, "Your Majesty, do you have anything else to order?"

Xiao Chi waved his hand.

"My minister retire."

Qi Mo left with the tray.

……

The next day.

The people from the Ministry of Justice began to try the case of Master Jiang and Wang Manyu.

Three days later, Zheng Yu, the Minister of Justice, came to the Imperial Study.

Xiao Chi was not busy, he was drawing a portrait.

When he saw Zheng Yu coming, he stopped writing and looked at Zheng Yu, "Master Zheng, what's the matter?"

Zheng Yu bowed and then said, "Your Majesty, the case of Imperial Preceptor Jiang has been heard. He has confessed his guilt and signed his name. He will be sentenced to death by slicing in three days!"

The punishment of lingchi, also known as cutting into pieces, is specifically aimed at those who have done all kinds of bad things. As the name suggests, the flesh of the person is cut off piece by piece, leading to death.

Master Jiang killed so many people, and the punishment waiting for him was lingchi.

Xiao Chi sat on the chair, "Where is Wang Manyu?"

Zheng Yu replied, "She was beheaded."

Song Yao entered the imperial study and asked, "Who wants to be beheaded?"

Zheng Yu turned around and bowed respectfully, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you, the Queen."

"Oh, it's Master Zheng." Song Yao asked curiously, "Who did you just say was going to be beheaded?"

Zheng Yu explained, "It's Wang Manyu. She colluded with Master Jiang and killed tens of thousands of young girls. She even bathed in their blood. She's absolutely abominable and her crimes are heinous. She deserves death!"

"So it's Wang Manyu." Song Yao said, "Then she really deserves death, but killing her like this would be too easy. Let's parade them through the streets and then execute them."

Zheng Yu nodded, "Yes, Queen."

Afterwards, Zheng Yu left the imperial study.

Song Yao walked over to Xiao Chi and stood beside him. "Where is Imperial Master Jiang? What kind of punishment did he receive?"

"Lingchi." Xiao Chi said, "This punishment suits him very well."

He was reading a memorial, and a casual remark he made made Song Yao laugh out loud.
