Chapter seven hundred and fortieth call the shots
She knew that Concubine Mei and the Empress Dowager were so big that the Empress Dowager and Concubine Mei could not kill her to silence her?
She was careless and it was too late to regret it now.
The second wife only felt that there were more than a hundred short needles under her butt, which made her feel pain all over her body. She didn't dare to look at the second master's face. The second wife picked up the teacup at a loss and prepared to drink a cup of tea to calm her panic.
Only the teacup was lifted up, and before it could enter the mouth, a copper coin shot in the dark.
With a bang.
The teacup was shattered.
Tea splashed everywhere and fell on the ground, making a whisper.
The second wife was frightened by the copper coins first and screamed. When she saw a scene on the ground, her back became cold like ice.
Tea is poisonous!
She realized that she would be silenced, but she didn't expect that it would come so quickly. Her tea and the second master's tea were brought together by the maid.
The second master's teacup was broken first, and there was nothing unusual. She didn't think much about it. Who would have thought that the second master's tea was non-toxic, and hers had it!
The secret guard was sent by Jiang Wan. After saving the second wife, he returned to Bai Jingxuan to report his life.
Jin'er heard this and said, "Mrs. Second wife is not a good person, why should the girl save her?"
After marrying her daughter to her son-in-law, the second wife was generous enough to not poison her. The second wife fought with Concubine Mei, which was a dog biting a dog. They didn’t think it was enough to watch the fun, so they saved her?
Jin'er couldn't help but wonder if Jiang Wan had taken the wrong medicine.
Jin'er's head was simple, Jiang Wan smiled and said, "The second young master's life experience is the personal evidence. Before this matter is revealed to the world, the second wife cannot die."
"Besides, the second wife has not yet separated. If the second wife dies, I have to prepare for her funeral. Wouldn't it be tiring?"
The second wife's life will definitely not be preserved.
Concubine Mei can't take her life, and there is also the queen mother.
All Jiang Wan wanted was to protect the second wife from her family before she was separated. As for the separation, whether the sky collapsed or the ground was sunken after the separation, it had little to do with her.
Jin'er thought about it, it was tiring to hold a wedding banquet. At least he was happy and he was very tired. It was too unlucky to hold a funeral. It would be better not to hold a funeral without a funeral.
only--
"Will the second house split up?" Jin'er asked.
Parents are there, and they don’t separate their families.
The old lady is dead, the old Duke is still there, and she is in a strong body, so it will be no problem to live for more than ten or twenty years.
Jiang Wan smiled and raised her hand to knock Jin'er's head, "Do you think the second master is suitable to live under the same roof as the prince?"
The reason why the second master was released so quickly was because the old lady took all the charges of assassinating the prince on herself and left the second master clean.
The second master did not confess from beginning to end, and the old lady's confession was still kept in the Ministry of Justice.
The Empress Dowager put pressure on him, and the Minister of Justice could only release him.
But the second master did not plead guilty, which does not mean that he had not participated in the assassination of the prince. He has been coveting the military power in the prince for more than a day.
The old Duke finally cleared the estrangement with the prince. Can he not cherish the hard-earned harmony between father and son and let the second master ruin this rare tranquility of the prince's mansion?
If the second master was exiled, there would be only a second wife and a third young master in the second room. The old man could turn a blind eye and go all over, but he couldn't do it now. He guessed that he was already thinking about the separation of the family.
The second wife did not hear the news that the second wife was killed by poison. Concubine Mei was a little disappointed, but the maid had to pick on her and wait.
The second wife did not make the matter big. The secret guards of the prince and princess knew that her tea had been poisoned, so how could she not know who poisoned her? There was no need to make a big splash.
The royal palace was so peaceful that nothing had happened, but everyone insiders knew that this was the tranquility before the storm.
The quieter the more severe the storm.
The next day, the prince entered the palace to attend the morning court as usual.
In the court, all officials were discussing the matter of Beiyun Hou hijacking the tax silver, some put pressure on the Ministry of Justice, and some advised the emperor to be prepared as soon as possible.
The Minister of Justice stood up at the right time and said, "The Ministry of Justice has already decided the case. The Prince of Beiyun Hou was killed by the second young master of the Jing'an Prince's Mansion. He will be executed on a date and give Beiyun Hou an explanation."
As soon as the Minister of Justice spoke, everyone, including the emperor, looked at the prince.
The prince said nothing. If it were normal, he would definitely say that he had no choice but to teach his children. Unfortunately, he was not his son.
When the prince didn't speak, everyone thought he was accusation. When the prince cried and killed his son, it would be difficult for others to sprinkle salt on the prince's wound.
In the morning, the prince did not say anything. After going down, he left the Political Affairs Hall, and the Empress Dowager sent someone to invite him.
However, the prince did not go to see the queen mother, but went to the imperial study room.
The emperor heard that the Empress Dowager was looking for the prince, and the Prince arrived. The emperor was a little confused, and even more confused. Because as soon as the prince entered the imperial study, he knelt down to the emperor, "I ask the emperor to make the decision for me!"
In one sentence, the emperor and the father-in-law in the imperial study were shocked.
If other ministers say this, no one will be surprised. This is King Jing'an!
Who is King Jing'an?
He held heavy troops and was deeply trusted by the emperor, and he also served as a relative of the Hejian Palace.
With a stomp, the person who had to shake the emperor's dragon throne for three days in the court actually wanted the emperor to make the decision for him?
The emperor looked at the prince and said, "Who dares to give King Jing'an you aggrieved?"
After the emperor asked, he glanced at Eunuch Chang, a little worried that he, the emperor, had no idea when he had wronged King Jing'an.
In addition to him, the emperor, he never expected anyone to dare to aggrieved King Jing'an.
The prince knelt on the ground, and two words hit the ground, "It's the Queen Mother!"
The emperor was shocked.
Eunuch Chang's mouth was so wide that he could almost stuff a salted duck egg into it.
When the prince mentioned Qi Moming's life experience, the emperor's face turned green. No wonder the empress dowager has become unusual recently. It turns out that the person who worked hard to save his own grandson.
On his angry head, a duck voice came from outside the imperial study, "The Queen Mother is here!"
Before he finished speaking, the Empress Dowager had already entered the imperial study room, his voice as cold as a knife, "The King of Jing'an is so majestic! The Ai family can't even invite you even if they send someone to ask you. If the Ai family wants to see you, they have to come in person!"
The prince did not kneel down and stood there without saluting the queen mother.
The emperor did not get up, but sat on the dragon throne and looked at the empress dowager, and said indifferently, "The queen is just right. I will go and find me, and I will write an imperial edict and give Concubine Mei to commit suicide."
The empress dowager froze and suddenly looked at the emperor, "What mistake did Concubine Mei make? I want to give her death penalty?"
It’s not just a simple death sentence, it’s a suicide attempt.
A coldness rose in the emperor's eyes and he thought casually, "The King of Jing'an is busy with military affairs. What important matters does the Empress Dowager have to meet King Jing'an?"
The Empress Dowager took a deep breath and said, "The Queen of Beiyun hijacked the tax silver. It seemed to be trying to seek justice for his son, Prince of Beiyun, but in fact it was because he had long been determined to rebel and took the opportunity to raise troops."
"The second young master of the Jing'an Prince's Mansion cannot extinguish the wolf ambition of Beiyun Hou, which will only make him worse!"
"Today, King Jing'an, you will kill your son, Marquis Pingbei Yun, and Marquis Beiyun, the Marquis Beiyun will ask you, Prince Jing'an, to go to Yuzhou in person, to apologize. Do you go too?"
