49. Accountability

Xia Song has been immersed in officialdom for a long time, and his understanding of Emperor Longqing is deep enough, and when he heard him say such words, he quickly realized Emperor Longqing's purpose after being shocked.

He wasn't complaining at all, and he wasn't even telling him about it.

can make Emperor Longqing, such a sensitive and face-saving person, say the content of King Jin's letter, which shows how angry Emperor Longqing is in his heart.

He paused before he said: "The ambition of the wolf son of the king of Jin, creating something out of nothing, slandering the saint, is really a capital crime. ”

Emperor Longqing was noncommittal, but sneered: "But is it possible that I want to use this reason to condemn him?" ”

Of course not.

This letter can't be published, otherwise wouldn't everyone in the world have to think about it?

Xia Song completely understood the meaning of Emperor Longqing asking him to stay, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "The ambition of the wolf son of the king of Jin, after the conspiracy was revealed, he abandoned his wife and children and killed the Qincha sent by the imperial court, and now everyone is punished. ”

That's what it means.

Emperor Longqing hummed lightly: "I will be responsible for this matter, and you must give a reason that is enough to convince the ministers and the people." ”

Don't let those people get to the bottom of it, and run out to plead for King Jin.

Xia Song answered.

Emperor Longqing leaned on the dragon chair and closed his eyes, relieving the tiredness and soreness in his eyes, and then instructed Gonggong An to take charge of the Moon Palace.

Recently, Queen Fang's matter and King Jin's matter made him really depressed, only seeing the five princes could make him happier, he was used to going to Lanyue Palace.

Concubine De was teasing the five princes, the five princes were already staggering away, and they were stumbling to get the ball in Concubine De's hand, and when they saw Emperor Longqing, they hurriedly threw themselves into his arms.

Concubine De couldn't help but say angrily: "Mao'er forgot about her mother when she saw her father, she really has no conscience!" ”

These words made Emperor Longqing more and more excited, and there was a smile on his face: "Mao'er is smart, so she is naturally close to her father. He asked her again, "Is Mao'er's cough getting better?" ”

As soon as spring came, Chu Jingmao was prone to coughing, and the cough was much worse a few days ago, and the sound of breathing was full of panting sounds, which was extremely scary.

Concubine De hurriedly responded: "It's all ready, Kong Fengfeng comes to apply needles every day, you can rest assured." He personally took a cup of ginseng tea from the tray in Gong E's hand and handed it to him: "You also moisten your throat, it's dry on this day, and your throat is always easy to feel uncomfortable." ”

Emperor Longqing took a sip and played with the five princes.

was enjoying himself, but Father-in-law An was not interested in asking to see him outside, Emperor Longqing was a little irritable, but he still suppressed it, let him in, and asked him: "What's the matter?" ”

Gonggong An glanced at Concubine De carefully, bent over and lowered his head to the ground: "Holy Lord, something happened to the fourth prince." ”

Emperor Longqing was a little surprised, and after reacting, his face changed greatly and he stood up: "What's wrong?" What happened? ”

He had already stood up, and Gonggong An hurriedly went to the side to get his big coat and put it on for him, while telling him: "I don't know how, I heard that I got up early today and had a low-grade fever, but after seeing it, the imperial doctor said that it was not a big deal, who knew that just now, the palace ladies found that the four princes couldn't wake up, and then they knew that the fever had fainted......"

As he walked, he said quickly: "I don't know who told the queen mother, and now the queen mother has passed, and she is crying very much while holding the fourth prince......"

The fifth prince stumbled over and hugged Emperor Longqing's legs, raised his little head and smiled at Emperor Longqing and showed his two teeth, babbling and not letting him go.

Emperor Longqing touched his head, didn't have the heart to stay, and glanced at Concubine De.

Concubine De had already quickly picked up the fifth prince and said softly: "Father is going to see my brother, Mao'er is obedient." At the same time, he urged Emperor Longqing to go quickly.

When Emperor Longqing went out and left, Mama Peng took a few steps forward and took the fifth prince from Concubine De's hand, and said softly: "I don't know if it's a real illness or a fake illness." ”

The four princes were raised in the Taiji Hall of Emperor Longqing, how could it be a fake disease?

It's just that it's too timely, and this illness, Queen Fang cried for a while, and she couldn't say that Emperor Longqing's temperament was soft again.

Concubine Peng De sat down and thought for a while, coughed and told Mama Peng: "No matter what, look at the people in the queen's palace." ”

Mama Peng answered yes and asked her again: "Niangniang, let's really do nothing?" I'm afraid the queen doesn't have any good intentions towards us, if one is not careful, I'm afraid I will fall into her pit again. ”

Concubine De picked up the ball on the carpet for the fifth prince, bent down to tease him softly, and only looked at her after a moment and asked, "Didn't you see the fate of the queen?" ”

Empress Fang boasted that she had been close to Emperor Longqing for a long time, but she didn't see clearly that Emperor Longqing was a fool.

He liked Empress Fang back then, because Empress Fang was different from Empress Ming, she knew less, and her ambition was naturally less, which gave him a sense of security and achievement.

But now that Empress Fang's ambition is getting bigger and bigger, and her ambition is clearly exposed in front of Emperor Longqing, where can Emperor Longqing still tolerate her?

Concubine De has always been very jealous of Queen Fang in the past, of course, what she is afraid of is not Queen Fang's intelligence and ability, but the unique trust and love that Emperor Longqing has for her, but now Queen Fang is sparing no effort to squeeze this uniqueness out little by little.

Concubine De knew that what her sister Concubine Yu said was right, so why do anything?

As long as she doesn't do anything now, she is the queen of the other party who has done the most.

The more she seems to be indisputable and resigned, the more Emperor Longqing will compare her with Empress Fang in his heart, and the more Empress Fang will look more and more hateful in his eyes.

"We don't have to do anything, we just do." She glanced at Mama Peng calmly, with warning and deterrence in her eyes: "Guard the door, the people in our own palace must keep an eye on it, and they are not allowed to chew the root of their tongues, let alone repeat what happened before." ”

The past she said was that the people in her palace were involved in framing the four princes for high fever.

Mama Peng's heart sank, knowing what Concubine Peng De meant, she hurriedly whispered yes.

He said: "Niangniang, didn't you say that you want the old lady Xuanwei to enter the palace?" ”

Before, Empress Fang took advantage of Mrs. Wei's trouble, saying that the fourth prince was the reincarnation of the eldest prince, and she herself caused a commotion, and was taboo and disgusted by Emperor Longqing, but Mrs. Wei was still as stable as Mount Tai and had nothing to do.

Concubine De knew that Mrs. Wei was a high-minded person.

In addition, when Concubine Yu left before, she had specially told her that the Wei family could use it, so she fell in love with the Wei family.
