Chapter 632: The Emperor and Empress Sitting Opposed to the Courtiers
At this time, Queen Luan Xiying, after her initial anger and worry, also figured out some changes that she had unintentionally overlooked before, and gradually calmed down.
Empress Luan Xiying looked at Emperor Hongde, "Your Majesty, is it...is it because of the death of Leng Xian, the Marquis of Qinxing, that the imperial decree granting the marriage has become invalid, and the ministers in the court are eyeing our Yu'er again?
Are they eyeing the position of Prince Yu's Consort again? "
Hong Dedi nodded and said, "Aying guessed correctly, that's exactly it.
Yesterday, Qinxing Marquis Leng Xian was executed, and today at the morning court..."
At this point, Emperor Hongde thought of today's morning court session;
Thinking of the faces of those courtiers at the morning court, he couldn't help but snort coldly.
As the ruler of a country, how could Emperor Hongde not have thought...
When Leng Xian, the Marquis of Qinxing, was executed, the imperial decree granting marriage that he had written himself would also become a piece of waste paper;
Emperor Hongde could naturally expect that those courtiers who were greedy and ambitious and had always coveted the position of Prince Yu's wife would stir up trouble because of this;
They would take the opportunity to attack Leng Rongyue, the legitimate daughter of Marquis Qinxing and fiancée of Prince Yu, and step her down so that their daughter would have the opportunity to take the throne.
Ever since the morning court session that day, Qinxing Marquis Leng Xian had confessed his crimes of killing his wife and seizing her property in the Jinluan Palace, intending to deceive the emperor, and was transferred to Shuntian Prefecture for trial and conviction;
After the Duke of Anguo's Mansion submitted the lawsuit against the Marquis of Qinxing's Mansion to the Shuntian Prefecture, the court officials' little thoughts instantly came to life.
The reason they have been keeping their troops inactive for the past few days is that they are just lying in wait...
Just wait for the Marquis of Qinxing’s mansion to be convicted;
Just waiting for Qinxing Hou Leng Xian to be executed...
At that time, they will have a legitimate reason to jump out and compete for the position of Prince Yu's wife.
Only then will they have a chance to fight for their greed and ambition.
Emperor Hongde briefly told Empress Luan Xiying what happened at the morning court session.
"Humph!
Ah Ying didn't notice that those court officials who had ulterior motives, especially those who had daughters of marriageable age, all had green eyes!
They wished they could immediately put their daughter into Prince Yu's palace.
He even wanted to trample Rong Yue into dust right away...
It would be best if Rongyue, the daughter of the guilty minister, could also be punished.
Ah Ying would never have imagined how vicious those black-hearted guys could be for their own selfish ends.
They actually attacked Rongyue, saying something like... Filial piety is greater than heaven;
You can’t just be filial to your mother and not be filial to your father;
No matter how wrong or guilty your biological father is, he is still your biological father!
As a daughter, you cannot put your biological father to death just to be filial to your mother.
The Duke of Anguo's Mansion wants to sue the Marquis of Qinxing, which is fine;
But, if Rongyue came forward, it would be extremely unfilial!
Therefore, Rongyue should not only be convicted of the crime of being unfilial.
They should be punished just like the concubines and sons in the Marquis Qinxing's mansion, and should be exiled and sold into slavery by the government.
Leng Rongyue deserves a heavy sentence for his father's crime and his unfilial behavior, even if he is not sentenced to death, to atone for his crime!"
"This is really unreasonable!"
Queen Luan Xiying was so angry that she slapped the table.
Emperor Hongde quickly held the queen's hand, blowing on it and rubbing it.
“Oh my…
You can be angry, but why are you banging the table?
Doesn’t your hand hurt? "
“My hand hurts.
Nothing compares to heartache! "
Queen Luan Xiying glared and said.
“Back then, Baozhen was killed tragically by the scumbag Leng Xian and his gang;
Rongyue had suffered so many years of hardship and torture, and it was not easy for her to survive until now.
Her own mother was killed by her scumbag father and his gang, and now she is avenging her mother...what's wrong with that?
Could it be that... Rongyue has to ignore her mother's tragic death and be filial to her wolfish father who killed her mother?
These people disregard justice for their own selfish desires. They are so vicious and shameful!
snort!
They even dared to mention the crime of selling...
In order to achieve his goal, he would not even let go of a poor little girl!
It is really unworthy of you to be a minister of the court!"
Queen Luan Xiying took the cup of tea handed to her by Emperor Hong De, drank it in one gulp, and put the cup heavily on the table.
"Humph!
Judging from the greedy faces of these court officials, how can they raise a good daughter!
Are you still dreaming of marrying those mediocre women into Prince Yu's mansion to become his princesses?
snort!
Go dream!
Don’t even think about anyone except Rongyue!”
"Yes, yes, except Rongyue, no one is worthy of being Yuer's wife!
Since we have already made up our minds, why should we get angry at these people?
Just let them do what they want, in the end, they will just get slapped in the face!
There's no need for us to get angry about this, it's not worth it!
Calm down... Calm down!"
Emperor Hong De coaxed him softly.
After being coaxed and persuaded by Emperor Hong De, Empress Luan Xiying gradually calmed down.
Suddenly he thought of something and asked, "By the way, Your Majesty, matters in the court are matters in the court.
Yu'er followed the Anguo family to burn incense and worship Buddha in Qingguo Temple. Didn't they say... Buddhist rituals have to last for three days?
It's only the first day, why did the emperor say that he would definitely rush back to the palace tonight?
He also said that he couldn't stay in Qingguo Temple any longer...
Why? "
