In the Qianqing Palace, the orthodox emperor was taking a nap on the royal couch. He was getting older and his energy was gradually declining. He could only rely on the pills given by Zhang Tianshi to support him. Because Yigui concubine was pregnant, the rumors about bad feng shui in the Forbidden City were solved. The emperor He was very happy, but he couldn't hold on to the party for long before he felt exhausted.

While he was dazedly sleeping on the couch, he suddenly heard a noise outside, and Zhengzheng was awakened. He frowned, feeling very unhappy, and asked in a deep voice: "What's going on? Noisy?" Yelling!"

A steward opened the curtain and came in from the outside. He opened his mouth and exhaled a breath of white air. He knelt on the ground with a somewhat ugly face and said, "Your Majesty, the five-color soil enshrined in the Sheji Altar has been stolen!"

Zhengtong was shocked: "What did you say?"

"Zhou Li Kao Gong Ji" says "Zuozu Youshe", Zu refers to the "Ancestral Temple", and She refers to the "Sheji Altar". One of the Ancestral Temple and the Sheji Altar is located to the east of the palace, and the other is located to the west of the palace, symbolizing the clan. The defense of imperial power by power and divine power.

Therefore, the Sheji Altar is one of the most important buildings in the imperial city. Five colors of earth are enshrined on the Sheji Altar, with the middle yellow, east green, south red, west white, and north black symbolizing the land of the country, which represents \\\\\\\ "The whole world is not the land of the king\\\\\\\".

This five-color soil is a symbolic thing. If it is valuable, it is worth a thousand pieces of gold. If it is not valuable, it is worthless. Why would someone be tempted to steal such a thing?

Isn’t this enough to hold up after eating enough? The head guard couldn’t help but think to himself!

When the emperor inquired, he said this again, "...someone took advantage of the drunken guards and lax guarding to sneak into the Sheji altar and steal the five-color soil!"

The five-color earth symbolizes the return of the world and the divine right of kings. As the emperor, Zhengtong has always been in great reverence for the heaven and earth. Today happens to be the first day of the first lunar month. Wouldn’t losing the five-color earth be equivalent to losing the world? After hearing this, I couldn’t help but feel a surge in my heart. He had an ominous premonition. His face darkened, "Did the thief who stole the five-color soil get it?"

The chief chamberlain said: "Eunuch Chen sent people to chase him. The thief fled into the inner garden in panic. Eunuch Chen has sent people to block the inner palace. He has searched the three halls but there is no sign of the thief. I am afraid that the thief has already entered." The harem! Eunuch Chen didn’t dare to take the initiative to search privately, so he specially ordered his servants to come and request the emperor’s order!”

The harem was occupied by the emperor's concubines. Although Chen Jia was favored, she did not dare to be so unscrupulous.

Zheng Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly, with a hint of ferocity flashing in his eyes, and waved his hand without hesitation: "Go tell Chen Jia and ask him to do a good job for me. Even if the thief hides in Kunning Palace, I will catch him." Come out. When he completes this errand, I will naturally reward him well."

The battle between the Crown Prince and King Zhao for the right to inherit the throne is becoming increasingly fierce. No matter how dim Zhengtong is, he is aware of it. He is increasingly worried about his two sons, so the palace garrison has always been left to Chen Jia, the most trusted person, to take full charge of it. At this time, Chen Jia Jia was so busy that she didn't even have a chance to wait by his side.

The chief chamberlain breathed a sigh of relief after receiving the emperor's oral instructions, and hurriedly went to convey the order to Chen Jia, who was lingering outside the three main halls. Although Zhengzheng was very sleepy, he no longer felt sleepy at this moment. He called the little chamberlain in to help him dress and wash, and he was alone in the empty space. He walked slowly in the main hall.

He couldn't understand what the thief wanted to do after stealing the five-color soil. Besides, the harem was heavily guarded, and most people couldn't hide in the harem even if they wanted to. This thief should be a eunuch, and he was quite familiar with the harem. Then his master also

Maybe it’s someone in the harem!

Zhengtong smelled the smell of conspiracy! He couldn't help but became even more irritable. In the Baohe Palace, the civil and military ministers and the royal family members were all present. If something happened, where would the royal family's face go? He hurriedly sent eunuchs to see Baohe.

The situation of the palace.

He waited in the main hall for half an hour, when a chamberlain reported that Eunuch Chen was here. Zhengtheng did not expect Chen Jia to come now, so he quickly said: "Hurry up and tell him to come in!"

Chen Jia walked in in a hurry. Zhengtong saw that he was sweating profusely in the cold weather. He was slightly startled. He asked in a gentle tone: "Has the thief who stole the five-color soil got it?"

"Reporting to the emperor, the thief has already obtained it!"

Zhengtong breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Well done! Where did the thief get it?"

After Zhengtong asked this question, Chen Jia, who was kneeling below, made no movement. Zhengtong was slightly surprised and asked in a loud voice: "Chen Jia?"

Chen Jia was a little worried, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I, I don't dare to say anything!"

But Zhengtong got it wrong and said with a smile: "Look at your courage, did the thief really escape to Kunning Palace? Don't worry, I will make the decision for you, and the queen will not blame you!

"

Chen Jia raised his head and glanced at the emperor, then gritted his teeth and said as if he had made up his mind: "I dare not deceive your majesty. The slave was the thief who got it in Xianfu Palace!"

Zhengzheng was taken aback and thought thoughtfully: "Xianfu Palace is inaccessible, so it is understandable that the thieves fled in that direction. Is Yigui concubine good? She was not frightened, right?"

Chen Jiadao: "Slave, I didn't see your concubine. I caught one of the prince's personal servants in Xianfu Palace! I didn't dare to hide it, so I hurriedly came back to report to Your Majesty!"

I met the prince's chamberlain in Xianfu Palace. Doesn't that mean that the prince is also in Xianfu Palace? What will the prince do in Xianfu Palace at this moment? Isn't it self-evident?

Recalling that this Yigui concubine was originally offered by the prince, the emperor felt a rush of blood rushing to the top of his head, and his body swayed and he almost fell to the ground.

"Your Majesty!" Chen Jia jumped up and supported the emperor.

The emperor's face was livid, and he said with trembling hands: "The traitor, the traitor!"

Chen Jiadao: "Your Majesty, please calm down. Your Majesty is concerned about the safety of the world. Please take care of your dragon body!" Chen Jia gently stroked his chest, and Zhengtong finally calmed down a little.

"My servant has sent people to guard all the people in Xianfu Palace, and also ordered people to seal Xianfu Palace! It's just that I didn't dare to enter the queen's palace. Your Majesty, look at this..." What's next?

How does it end?

As a son, the prince had an affair with his concubine. This kind of thing is against human ethics. If it were exposed, it would be a huge scandal. Chen Jia's handling was very measured.

The orthodox emperor sneered again and again, "Forget it, I will go to Xianfu Palace with you. I want to see with my own eyes the good deeds they have done!"

Zhengzheng angrily took a group of eunuchs and guards to Xianfu Palace.

There was no one around Xianfu Palace. There were only a few guards with swords guarding the entrance of the palace. They were far away from the palace gate. When they saw the emperor, they all knelt down to greet him. When they entered the palace, it was even more peaceful and quiet, let alone

Man, not even a mouse.

Chen Jia whispered: "Your Majesty, the servants of Xianfu Palace have already checked it. Only the main palace where Yigui Concubine lives has not been checked."

In fact, there is no need to check at all. Standing at the door of the main hall, you can vaguely hear the lewd sounds coming from inside. No matter how cowardly the orthodox is, he is after all the leader of a country with wealth all over the world, and there is a fierce murderous intention in his eyes.

.The door of the main hall was closed from the inside. Zhengzheng ordered: "Break open the door of the main hall for me!"

Except for Chen Jia, the eunuchs who followed Zhengtong in this time were all trustworthy eunuchs. There were also a few who were closely guarding the emperor. Although they were eunuchs, they were all top experts. With their actions, they easily kicked the door open.

The orthodox emperor went in first. In the deep hall, there was a very huge bed. The orthodox emperor often favored his concubine Yigui on this bed, but now there were two people, a man and a woman, rolling in the red and gold embroidered quilt.

, hear the sound

Together with Yin, they raised their heads and looked outside. When Concubine Yigui saw that the person outside was actually the emperor, her face suddenly turned pale. She opened her mouth, but no sound came out. The prince's eyes were slightly dull,

It was as if the emperor had not been seen.

The orthodox emperor felt a deep sense of shame welling up in his heart. His son actually climbed onto the bed of his concubine. His eyes suddenly turned blood red, and he yelled: "Beast!" He went crazy.

He rushed over in the same manner and kicked the prince in the back.

When he was young, Zhengtong was also proficient in bow and horse, but now as he grows older, he has long returned it to his teacher. However, this kick was filled with hatred, and he still kicked the prince inwards. The quilt was

Pulling away, Zheng Zheng discovered that the quilt was already covered in bright red.

Chen Jia exclaimed, "Your Majesty, Concubine Yigui has had a miscarriage!"

Zheng Zheng was dizzy for a moment by the dazzling red color. No child had been born in the palace for a long time. He originally thought that Yigui's concubine was pregnant with the dragon seed and broke the curse, but he didn't expect that she was messing around with the prince with her big belly and actually made her pregnant.

The children were all dropped.

The emperor's eyes showed a look of extreme disgust, and he shook his hands and feet and said: "Crazy! Really crazy! Why don't we separate them!" Two eunuchs went up and separated the two people. Yigui concubine seemed to have just discovered that she had a miscarriage.

He screamed in a hoarse voice: "Your Majesty, I was wronged, and I don't even know what's going on!"

What she said was all true. The queen exempted her from attending the banquet today and asked her to stay in the palace to raise the baby. She had lunch and started to sleep. She fell asleep very drowsily for some reason. In her sleep, she seemed to be having a rough time with the prince.

In a daze, I thought I was dreaming!

She didn't wake up until the emperor entered the palace, but it seemed too late to say anything at this time! Only then did she feel severe pain in her lower abdomen, and she was shocked to realize that she had miscarried. She was so frightened that she screamed uncontrollably.

"You bitch! You seduced the prince, engaged in prostitution during the day, and even caused the fetus in your belly to miscarry. I saw this with my own eyes, and you still want to make excuses!"

Concubine Yigui was naked and still struggling in the eunuch's hands, "Your Majesty, spare my life! Please spare my life for the sake of my child! There is absolutely no personal relationship between my concubine and the prince! Please investigate clearly!"

She didn't say it was okay, but the more she talked about it, the more angry the emperor became. At first, she thought she was pregnant with her own child, but now that she thought about it, it must be the prince's child. She gave herself such a green hat, and she hated herself for giving it to her.

This kind of favor was both a reward and a promotion to her status. Thinking about it, she felt ridiculous to death.

"Child? How dare you mention a child? The child in your belly is not mine at all!"

Concubine Yi Gui felt as if she was struck by thunder, and continued to argue: "I have been resting in the palace in the afternoon, and I don't know when the prince came! Your Majesty, it is not that I seduced the prince!" Who knows why the prince is so audacious?

He actually dared to climb into her bed.

She was wronged too!

The prince's clothes were scattered everywhere in the hall. Chen Jia suddenly saw a piece of letter on the ground, so he bent down to pick it up and handed it to Zheng Zheng's hand: "Your Majesty, please read it!"

I saw only eight words written on it: "Meet you in the palace, let's tell you something important!" Zhengtong recognized the handwriting of Juanxiu, and it was undoubtedly Yigui's concubine. Zhengtong threw the letter in front of Yigui's concubine: "

Bitch! What else can you say?"

Concubine Yi Gui tremblingly picked up the letter, and immediately turned pale after reading it. "Someone must have framed me, someone wants to frame me!" She spoke incoherently, but she did not dare to tell Concubine Xiao.

Because she knows

Remember, Concubine Xiao just asked someone to tell her two days ago that her younger brothers and sisters were all taken to Zhuangzi in Daxing by Concubine Xiao. She knew clearly that she was dead. If she bit Concubine Xiao out now, her relatives would be

They will all be doomed.

What's more, when she thought about it now, she realized that even if she bit out Concubine Xiao, the emperor would not believe her. Because from the beginning to the end, Concubine Xiao never said an inappropriate word to her, and there was no reason for it.

Let her hold it in her hand.

The orthodox emperor said bitterly: "The evidence is irrefutable, but you still dare to quibble!"

Chen Jia suddenly knelt down and said boldly: "Your Majesty, I can't keep my concubine!" If this kind of thing spreads, it will be really bad for the Emperor's reputation.

The orthodox emperor said coldly: "You are right, I will give her a piece of white silk!" He pointed to the two accompanying eunuchs: "You can wait for her on her way!" He said majestically: "You remember it.

, Yigui concubine had a miscarriage suddenly, and she didn’t have time to call in the imperial doctor, so both the adult and the child were not saved!”

Yigui concubine had a miscarriage and was extremely weak. After hearing these words, she collapsed into a pile of mud. She only said over and over again: "I didn't do anything, please forgive me! I didn't do anything, please forgive me!"

"

Chen Jia asked again: "Then what should I do, Prince?" The Prince had just been kicked in the back by Zhengtong and had fainted, but he had escaped the wrath of Zhengtong's thunder.

"What use is there for such an unfaithful, unfilial, and disobedient beast? Drag him out immediately and execute him!"

If the prince dies, he will be abolished, and the future troubles will be eliminated, which is naturally the best result for King Zhao and his party. Unexpectedly, Chen Jia objected at this time: "Your Majesty, you can't! The prince is the crown prince of the country, so this
