Chapter 44 It’s time to seek justice!
Prince Jiajing was ecstatic, but he had been on the throne for many years and knew that the palace struggles were fierce, so he naturally would not show his joy, and his face remained as serious as ice.
Li Zhenting's biological mother, Tian Wanyue, was his most beloved concubine back then.
She came from a family of scholars and lived up to her name, with a gentle and quiet personality. Her refusal to compete for anything made her stand out even more. The concubines in the harem, who were vying for fame and fortune, were extremely harassing to the newly ascended emperor, and naturally, he doted on her even more.
She loved reading, was proficient in poetry and songs, and could write beautiful calligraphy. She was kind and gentle to others. Even if the palace maids and eunuchs who served her made mistakes, she would never punish them severely. In her spare time, she would teach them how to read and write.
Tian Wanyue's Shuyuzhai had a warm and peaceful atmosphere, and everyone got along harmoniously. Compared with the other palaces where there was a deadpan atmosphere of scolding and beating without any warmth, it was even more unique.
Even though Tian Wanyue was the most beautiful and talented among all the concubines, she just couldn't catch the eye of Empress Dowager Lu. She was only thinking about supporting her niece Lu Shufang, and she did not hesitate to make things difficult for Tian Wanyue.
Tian Wanyue's beauty was a seductive charm that could harm the state. She excelled in poetry and song, but Empress Lü argued that a woman's virtue lay in her lack of talent; knowing more would lead to her involvement in politics. She got along well with the palace maids and eunuchs, but she was accused of not understanding hierarchy and lowering her status.
Fortunately, Tian Wanyue was pregnant, and he, who had just ascended the throne, overcame all objections and made Tian Wanyue the queen. But who could have imagined that Tian Wanyue, who had just become queen for less than a month, died on the spot after giving birth to Ting'er after going through so much hardship.
It's not that he didn't have doubts about Tian Wanyue's death back then, but as he had just ascended the throne, he had no ability to confront the foreign relatives headed by Empress Dowager Lu.
After all, Empress Dowager Lu was only his adoptive mother. The infertile Empress Dowager Lu used some unknown means to kill his mother and supported him all the way to the throne, but she just wanted to make him a puppet emperor.
He had no choice but to suppress his inner grief and bury Tian Wanyue. At the same time, with the help of Prime Minister Cao and others, he successfully sent Li Zhenting away and thus escaped the disaster...
Now that Empress Dowager Lu is seriously ill, it is time to seek justice for Tian Wanyue and my mother.
"Ting'er is right. The matter of the late queen has caused unrest in the harem. Seeing that the empress dowager's condition is getting worse, I am extremely anxious. An early treatment will help the empress dowager's recovery. The rumors flying around have really tarnished Queen Tian's reputation..."
"Ting'er, just go ahead and handle this matter. If necessary, you can mobilize the people from the Imperial Observatory and the Imperial Household Department..."
"My son, I accept the decree!"
The father and son looked at each other and immediately understood!
Someone immediately became anxious.
"Your Majesty, today is the day of Hua Ting's wedding. Is it inappropriate to investigate the affairs of Empress Goshida?"
Beads of sweat were already oozing from Empress Lu's forehead. Now that the Queen Mother couldn't come forward to protect her, if her position as Empress was lost, wouldn't all her painstaking planning over the years be wasted?
That is to punish the Nine Clans!
"It's precisely because it's Huating's wedding that we're using the festive atmosphere to purge the harem so they can live in peace in the future. The Queen has been working so hard lately, her hair has turned gray, and she seems overworked. I won't be going to Kunning Palace tonight, so please retire early, Queen..."
Prince Jiajing strode out, and Li Zhenting followed quickly with Nangong Qing in his arms.
Using the excuse that Nangong Qing was frightened and needed rest, Li Zhenting took Nangong Qing directly to the Emperor's Palace of Tranquil Longevity.
The guards on both sides were dismissed, and even the eunuch Zhao, who always stayed by the emperor's side, was asked to leave. Nangong Qing, who had just been too weak to stand, immediately perked up and sat down to check on Prince Jiajing's health.
"Father, how are you feeling lately? Did you follow the doctor's instructions after passing gas? Do you feel anything unusual?"
Prince Jiajing looked at Nangong Qing with a cheerful smile, his eyes full of kindness. The princess he'd accidentally married to Ting'er was very close to him. When he was with her, he temporarily forgot about the troubles in the court and harem.
This quirky personality and handsome appearance are so lovable.
"Thanks to Qing'er, I'm feeling much better now since I was treated."
Until now, no one knows what method Nangong Qing used, but the painful abdominal pain that had tormented him in the past miraculously disappeared.
Doctor Wen showed him the post-operative care list specially written by Nangong Qing, which mostly contained light food. Only then did he realize that the meals that Empress Lu had ordered the imperial chef to prepare were the root cause of his illness.
Second Prince Li Zhenting, while on guard duty, fights the enemy to relieve the threat at the border, while his daughter-in-law, Nangong Qing, restores his health with her miraculous healing skills. The couple appear to be in perfect harmony. With them by his side, why should he worry about not being able to regain military power and successfully help Ting'er ascend to the throne of Crown Prince?
"Congratulations, Father! Your Majesty is now in good health. Please pay more attention to your diet and daily life in the future. Your Majesty's good health is a blessing to our Great Yan Nation..."
Prince Jiajing laughed so hard that he couldn't close his mouth. Look at his wife, how nice she speaks.
"Thank you, my dear. I wonder what you, Ting'er, think of the Queen Mother's encounter with evil spirits today?"
The smile on Prince Jiajing's face quickly faded as he thought of the Empress Dowager's affairs. It was a pity that Tian Wanyue, known for her virtue, had died in such an unclear manner. Empress Dowager Lu's serious illness and the evil spirits that befell her were also karma.
"Your Majesty, I have heard that Empress Dowager Lu is not your biological mother?"
Nangong Qing asked with her big watery eyes.
This matter really needs to be clarified. After all, she is a princess who will be divorcing Li Zhenting soon. The emperor's family is fighting among themselves, and the ones fighting are all their own family members. If the harmony is damaged and they unite against the outside world, wouldn't she be asking for trouble?
"Like Ting'er, my biological mother passed away after giving birth, and later Empress Dowager Lu became my mother..."
Prince Jiajing's face was heavy. He sighed deeply and shook his head helplessly.
"Being in the palace, I have no control over everything. I knew that my mother's death was most likely caused by Empress Dowager Lu, but all those years ago, I had to rely on Empress Dowager Lu's influence to successfully sit on the throne...
Fortunately, after so many years, the court has Prime Minister Cao, Grand Tutor Pang and other trusted ministers. Zhen Ting has grown up and excelled in both civil and military strategy. It is time to seek justice for him..."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will do my utmost to thoroughly investigate the matter of Empress Dowager Lu!"
On this side, Li Zhenting discussed with Prince Jiajing and took Nangong Qing away, while on the other side, Prince Qi's palace was brightly lit.
The drunk Prince Qi stumbled towards the bridal chamber with a big red wedding sign posted on it, supported by a palace maid. He sat down on a chair beside the wine table and poured the wine from the wine jug into his mouth.
What bad luck! When he learned that his mother had specially arranged for him to marry a beautiful bride, he could hardly contain his excitement.
After finally waiting for the guests to leave, he couldn't wait to run to his bride to consummate the marriage.
But his uncle, Duke of Zhenguo Lu Pei'an, had ordered that he would not be allowed to stay overnight in the beautiful lady's room under any circumstances.
It is said that Nangong Yan has the fate of a golden phoenix. If she wants to achieve great things, she must guard the golden phoenix on her wedding day so that she can become a golden dragon.
So, my uncle sent someone to guard the door, and he couldn’t leave at all!
