heartthrob he quit

"Hey, have you heard?"

"what?"

"The palace is not peaceful these days. I heard that whose palace is using lynching and punishing people."

"Ah? But isn't Dahe's law prohibiting lynching? It's so rampant, and it's in the palace, so you're not afraid of the emperor's blame?"

"I guess it's some favored little master who isn't afraid of being punished by the emperor."

"I'll tell you a secret quietly, don't tell it out - the one who used the lynching is not some little master, but the one in the middle palace!"

The two maids walked and chatted, and it seemed that they could still hear the shrill scream in their ears.

At the same time, in the Chengqing Palace, the emperor threw the memorial on the table, his face was full of anger.

Beside him, there was a woman kneeling on the verge of weeping, she looked like a concubine, and she was crying and explaining, "Your Majesty, it's Wanrong's fault for spoiling your mood last night."

"But the concubine really heard..."

"Enough," the emperor said with restraint, "You go down first."

The concubine named Wan Rong knelt in a state of bewilderment.

The emperor repeated: "Go down!"

Wan Rong crawled out in panic.

The emperor closed the memorial completely, pondered for a moment, and called the supervisor in.

"I'm going to see the queen."

There is only one last day left before the emperor gave He Qianxiao.

After tonight, if there is still no result, the emperor will fulfill his previous promise - even sitting in the Hall of Punishment.

Although the weather is calm now, the emperor didn't have too many hints, but there is no reason to break his promise if he said it well. He Qianxiao didn't grasp the opportunity of clarification that he asked for himself. His patience will also be greatly reduced.

He Qianxiao took his time and even asked Yuan Yuan to find him a supper before nightfall.

When Yuan Yuan came back from supper for him, an unexpected guest came to the Palace of Yiqing.

—Queen.

On weekdays, the empress seldom leaves her own palace gate, and today she doesn't know what gust of wind brought her here. When He Qianxiao heard the announcement, she almost thought she heard it wrong.

The hall of Yiqing knelt down instantly, and He Qianxiao saluted the queen. After the queen came in, she slowly sat on the main seat without saying a word.

The servant girl beside the queen said: "Get up."

"Your Majesty came here today to find a hairpin," said the maidservant, "Your Highness Sixth, I hope you will forgive me for disturbing you."

He Qianxiao's heart sank, and he said with a smile: "I don't know what kind of hairpin my mother is looking for?"

What kind of hairpin is looking for, obviously trying to make use of it.

Still looking for hairpins, other Gongdou dramas were not set up like this 800 years ago.

He has been acting too much recently, and his connections are not too mature. After all, the queen has lived in the palace for more than ten or twenty years, and there are more spies than him, so it is not surprising to find his movements.

The queen kept silent, and the servants around her were like her mouth.

"The hairpin our empress is looking for is an extremely precious jade hairpin. It is pure white and flawless. It was rewarded by the emperor back then. Unfortunately, I don't know where it was thrown. The whole palace has been searched, and only the sixth highness is left. Here, I wonder if His Highness Six can let us look for it?"

He Qianxiao raised his eyes, just in time to see the Queen's gaze.

The queen stared at him coldly, with an indescribable hatred in her eyes, and she didn't even bother to hide it.

He Qianxiao suspected that her son might have something to do with her talking about him in this way.

"Really?" He Qianxiao asked back, "Even though the queen mother and sons and servants are human children, after all, they have no blood relationship with the queen mother. Is this inappropriate?"

The maid said: "Your Highness Sixth, the empress is your mother, what's wrong?"

"But Erchen has never been to my mother's palace, and my mother has never been to my son's bedroom. The prince and concubine have always lived separately. The mother checked it..."

The servant girl still wanted to talk.

The Queen suddenly said: "Okay, Jin Shuang."

He Qianxiao naturally stopped talking.

The Queen's voice was not too loud, but extremely majestic, "Jin Shuang stays, and the rest of you should step down. I will talk to the Sixth Highness alone."

After everyone retreated, they left the palace door wide open to avoid suspicion.

The movements of the two can be seen clearly, but the voices of the two cannot be heard clearly.

He Qianxiao stood in front of the empress, and the empress said indifferently: "If I had been more ruthless back then, you would not be standing here today."

He Qian said with a smile: "But the queen mother has a kind heart after all."

"Yes," the queen stood up and walked slowly to his side, "I have been in this palace for many years, the first thing I learned is not to be soft on your enemies, if you are soft today, he will fall into the mausoleum , don’t turn over again.”

He Qian said with a smile: "You won't let yourself fall to such a point."

"But it's a bit late," the queen looked at him, "after all, you, a little evil, have been left behind."

He Qianxiao didn't speak.

The emotion on the Queen's face was faint. Years of cultivation failed to make her become a Buddha immediately, but instead she became this kind of character who can do bad things without blinking an eye.

She said: "But we are not enemies, Your Highness the Sixth Highness—but you blocked my son's way, forgive a mother."

After she finished speaking, there was movement outside the door.

The steward beside the emperor raised his voice, "The emperor is here!"

The two separated some distance and knelt down at the same time.

Almost before the chief eunuch finished speaking, the emperor barged in. Seeing the two kneeling in the palace, he slightly suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice, "Queen, why are you doing such a grand ceremony?"

He Qianxiao set up a situation, and the emperor should have almost understood it by now.

To frame other princes for the sake of his son is a taboo in the harem, and it is a very serious crime if it is discovered. Now that the emperor speaks like this, he is already very calm.

The queen said: "The concubine is guilty, and I am pleading guilty to the emperor."

"You are indeed guilty!"

The emperor closed his eyes, "Queen, do you know what the crime is for murdering the prince? You have practiced vegetarianism for many years, and you have cultivated this appearance?"

The queen lowered her head, "The concubine knows."

In recent years, the emperor has been ashamed of the empress, and the husband and wife have always been the empress's strength, unwilling to show weakness, so even if the emperor wanted to make amends, he couldn't find a place to use his strength.

Now that the queen puts on such an appearance again, the emperor is already a little powerless.

"You let me tell you what to do?"

At this moment, there was another pass from outside.

"His Royal Highness is here—"

He Qianxiao was originally leaning over on the ground, but upon hearing this, she raised her body slightly and looked in the Prince's direction.

At this time, it is nothing more than adding fuel to the fire.

According to the prince's intelligence, he should understand that he shouldn't come at this time, but he probably got confused because he was concerned, so he couldn't figure it out for a while.

The emperor waved his hand and said angrily, "No! Let him go!"

This is different from the usual anger, this time the emperor was really angry, the servants were beside him helping him to make tea, but he overturned it and spilled it all on the ground.

He Qianxiao knelt on the ground without saying a word.

He knew that he couldn't speak now, because in the final analysis, he got up because of this matter.

He couldn't tell the emperor himself that he had chosen such a method, and the result was that the fig leaf between the emperor and the queen for many years was completely removed.

Just like the prince shouldn't come.

It is the best choice for him to keep silent.

After the emperor came back to his senses and felt ashamed of him, then was his chance.
