Chapter 532 Sowing discord
Prince Qin did not open his mouth to say that Pei Shaorong did it. He just knelt down and begged the emperor to investigate and give justice to his son who had no chance to come into this world.
His behavior actually aroused some of the father-son affection in the emperor's heart, and his tone became much gentler. He said, "Don't worry, I will get to the bottom of this matter! No matter who it is, no matter what their identity is, if they really did something wrong, they should be punished!"
This seems to be implying something.
"My son, thank you very much, Father!"
The Queen said quickly at this time: "Prince Qin, why don't you help Concubine Pei up? Concubine Pei, I think you should go to the side hall to rest for a while. This matter cannot be investigated in a short time. You just... your health is more important!"
Pei Zhen's face was pale but she shook her head firmly, "Thank you for your concern, Her Majesty the Queen, but I have to wait. I really... When I think of that child, I..." Her voice choked and tears flowed uncontrollably.
Xu Muhua was afraid that she would not be able to hold back her laughter, so she could only lower her head and wipe the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief from time to time.
"Concubine Xu, what's wrong with you? Are you also sad about the child lost by Concubine Pei?" the emperor asked suddenly.
Xu Muhua complained silently in his heart.
This old man just wants to cause trouble for her, right? He never forgets to sow discord between her and Ah Rong, right? He just can't bear to see her have an easy life, right?
"Of course, no matter what, it's an innocent child! And the imperial physician also said that it's a boy. If nothing goes wrong, he will be born in a few months, and father will have a grandson, right? But now he's gone. I'm very sad for father."
The emperor glared at her unhappily.
Every word he said seemed to be fine, so why did it sound so uncomfortable?
"If you really want to do this, you should quickly give birth to a son for the prince and a grandson for me! If you can give birth to a son for the prince, I'm sure that when he grows up, he will be as brave and good at fighting as your father, Duke Cheng, and become a great general who protects Dayong!"
Xu Muhua first glanced at Prince Qin and Pei Zhen with some worry, whose expressions were not good for a moment, and then lowered her head shyly and replied in a low voice: "Father, I will try my best."
The emperor nodded in satisfaction. Of course, the Crown Princess couldn't be left out at this time. "Crown Princess, you too."
Pei Shaorong said with great fear: "Yes, Father, I will definitely work hard."
King Qin lowered his eyes to hide the sinister look in them.
The queen sat aside with a calm expression on her face and did not interrupt.
While waiting, Crown Prince Zhao Chengye finally arrived late!
When the King Qin saw him, he stood up immediately, as if he was going to rush over to question him angrily. But as if he remembered his identity as the crown prince, he stopped himself abruptly, his face tense.
It was obvious that Zhao Chengye had rushed back after receiving the news, and there was sweat on his face that he had not had time to wipe off.
"Father, Emperor, Mother." He bowed.
The emperor waved his hand, "Sit down!"
After he sat down, the emperor looked at him and said in an ambiguous tone, "I think you have heard what happened. I have already ordered people to investigate. If this matter is related to the East Palace, I will definitely not tolerate it!"
Zhao Chengye was calm and said, "Father, I believe the Crown Princess. She is not that kind of person. She would never harm the child in the belly of the concubine of the King of Qin."
Pei Zhen couldn't help but choke: "Does the Crown Prince want to say that I deliberately used the child in my belly to frame the Crown Princess?"
Zhao Chengye didn't say anything, but silence was obviously equivalent to consent.
Pei Zhen seemed to be furious, and her whole body trembled. "This child is important to me, and to the prince. Everyone knows how important it is. No matter what kind of conflict I have with the Crown Princess, it is not worth it for me to sacrifice my own child to frame the Crown Princess!"
Xu Muhua really wanted to applaud her and give her an award for her acting skills.
Look at how well the anger and grievance are expressed! How realistically and touchingly the grief of a mother who lost her child is portrayed!
If there were Oscars in ancient times, Pei Zhen would definitely win the Best Actress award!
Zhao Chengye just glanced at her calmly and said, "Concubine Pei, there is no need to be so excited. I just said that I believe in the Crown Princess and didn't say anything else. She is my Crown Princess and my beloved wife. If I don't believe her, how can I believe you?"
Pei Zhen was choked.
"Okay, I've asked someone to investigate, and the truth will be revealed soon!" The emperor was also a little impatient.
Thinking of his lost grandson, the emperor was not in a good mood.
He had many sons, but he didn't know what sin he had committed, but none of them gave birth to sons, only daughters! As a result, he didn't even have a grandson!
Zhao Chengye walked over to sit next to Pei Shaorong, using his wide sleeves as a cover, and shook her hand comfortingly, signaling her not to worry. He had already arranged everything that needed to be arranged.
Pei Shaorong calmed down.
The emperor personally sent people to investigate, so naturally there would be results soon, not to mention that the king was originally trying to use this incident to frame the East Palace. Even if the emperor's people didn't find out, he would have someone reveal something for others to find out.
The chief eunuch beside the emperor came in with someone.
There were so many people in the palace, and Xu Muhua didn't recognize any of them, so he took a quick glance and then looked away.
The information the investigators found in the Eastern Palace was almost the same as what Pei Shaorong said.
"Reporting to the emperor, Concubine Pei entered the East Palace today as usual, and later dismissed everyone, leaving only the Crown Princess and Concubine Pei in the room. Not long after, Concubine Pei got into trouble."
"In addition, we also checked the food and drinks in the East Palace today, and didn't find anything suspicious, but... we found this." As he said this, he presented the things he found with both hands.
"What is this?"
The kneeling person below lowered his head and raised his hands: "Your Majesty, inside...it seems to be..."
But before he could finish his words, Pei Zhen rushed over like crazy and snatched the wooden box away. He opened the box before everyone could react.
"Ah!" Pei Zhen let out a terrified scream and threw the things in his hands away with both hands.
Not only the wooden box, but also the things in the box turned over in mid-air and fell to the ground with a dull sound.
Everyone looked carefully and saw what had fallen to the ground, and they all gasped.
A puppet!
