Chapter 227 The Storm is Coming
Zheng Jin was stunned, then smiled and said, "Your Majesty, do you have anything to ask me?"
Today, Lin Junxue wanted to test Zheng Jin in front of her to see if she was a time traveler like herself.
But Zheng Jin's every move was not like that of a modern person, so I was somewhat interested.
But now, she felt bored and didn't want to waste too much time on Zheng Jin.
Lin Junxue stared into Zheng Jin's eyes and said word by word, "Palace Jade Liquor"
Zheng Jin frowned, and a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes, which didn't seem fake.
Obviously, Zheng Jin didn't know what this meant. He didn't know what to say next.
So, it seems that her guess was wrong. Zheng Jin was not like her, a person who traveled from the modern times.
Then there are two possibilities, rebirth? Or reincarnation, which can explain why she has become a completely different person?
How many demons and monsters are hidden in this harem? It's getting more and more exciting
Zheng Jin looked bewildered and tried to say, "The Queen said that. I have never heard of this before. It sounds very interesting."
Lin Junxue shook her head and said, "It's nothing, don't take it to heart."
Noon
Zheng Jin made two small pieces of clothing. After she left Zhonghe Palace, Lin Junxue rewarded her with a precious agate bracelet. Zheng Jin left happily.
After she left, the greenhouse sent flowers over, filling the entire yard with the fragrance of flowers.
Lin Junxue stood on the stage, bathed in the sunshine, smelling the fragrance of flowers, feeling relaxed and happy.
This weather is so nice
The best for killing people.
Second day
When Xie Yu went to court, a major event happened. The Censorate directly reported Chen Xier's father in front of all the civil and military officials in the court.
Chen Baolu accepted bribes, bought official positions for others, used his official position to oppress the people, and even drank and enjoyed music with his colleagues, brazenly claiming that he was the emperor's father-in-law.
In the court, Xie Yu looked at the memorials, in which the Censorate's accusations against Chen Baolu were all clear and explicit.
Xie Yu was so angry that he wanted to give an order to execute Chen Baolu.
At the end, his son Chen Ce beat a prostitute to death in public in a brothel and declared that his sister was the emperor's favorite Concubine Xi.
She is pregnant now, and if she gives birth to a prince one day, he will be the future emperor.
Now people were discussing the matter, and the rumor spread throughout Kyoto overnight.
Xie Yu looked at Chen Baolu, who was kneeling on the ground in the court, and was completely determined to kill him.
What kind of person is this? How dare they covet his throne, the father-in-law of the emperor? Are the Chen family worthy of this?
Xie Yu's eyes were filled with murderous intent, and his overwhelming anger frightened the ministers so much that they dared not say a word.
The emperor had the intention to kill in public, and the days of the Chen family relying on Concubine Xi to bully others were completely over.
In the court, no matter how Chen Baolu cried out for injustice, Xie Yu directly had him and Chen Ce thrown into jail. The matter was handed over to the Dali Temple for trial, and no favoritism was allowed.
If what was said in the memorial was true, he would punish severely and would never forgive.
With Xie Yu's words, the Dali Temple immediately began to prepare to investigate the case of the Chen father and son.
The news of the previous dynasty spread quickly throughout the harem. When the concubines in the harem learned about it, they were all shocked.
Especially when they heard that Chen Ce not only beat a prostitute to death in public, but also said so shamelessly that the prince born by Chen Xier would be the future emperor, they all thought that the Chen father and son were simply crazy.
Now, the emperor is in his prime, isn't this a curse for the emperor to die early? This is so outrageous, no wonder the emperor was so angry, there was no room for negotiation, and he handed the case over to the Dali Temple.
This guy has entered the Dali Temple. He will be in great trouble if he doesn't die. Now, it's going to be exciting.
If something happened to Concubine Xi's father and brother, would she be able to give birth to her child safely?
Elegant Palace
Zi Shuang ran in in a panic, her face pale. Chen Xier was in bed resting and had no idea about this. The news spread throughout the court and the harem.
In the court, Chen Baolu didn't even have a chance to speak before he was thrown into prison by Xie Yu, and the Chen family was directly sealed off.
Chen Xier looked at the flustered Zi Shuang and frowned impatiently.
"Why are you running? What happened outside?"
Chen Xier had a cold face. It must be that bitch Lin Junxue who got some reward?
Zi Shuang didn't dare to hide it and knelt on the ground with a panicked look on his face.
"My lady, something bad has happened. Just now, just now, in the court, the Censorate impeached the master and the young master, saying that the master accepted bribes, helped others buy official positions, oppressed the people, and..."
When Chen Xier heard this, her face changed instantly. Father?
Something happened to my father? How is that possible?
As soon as she got excited, her stomach began to ache.
"Tell me, what happened? Where is father? How is he now?"
Zi Shuang said quickly, "Not only that, it was the master, but also the young master. Last night, they killed a prostitute in the brothel, and also, they spread the word that... Madam, the emperor was furious, and did not even give the master a chance to speak. He directly put the master and the young master in the Dali Temple prison, and also sent people to seal up the Chen family."
When Zi Shuang finished speaking, Chen Xier's eyes turned red and she shouted
"Confused, confused"
She went to great lengths to enter the palace, although now she has lost the emperor's favor.
But with the baby in her belly, she can still hold on to her position as a royal concubine, and she still has the capital to fight in the future.
But now, what sin had she committed to have such an idiotic father and brother, and she was completely ruined by them, completely ruined.
Chen Xier gritted her teeth and stood up. Zi Shuang hurried forward.
"Your Highness, please don't get excited anymore. Right now, the prince in your belly is the most important. Even if the emperor is angry, he can't ignore the prince in your belly."
Chen Xier shook her head
"You don't understand, you don't understand the emperor's ruthlessness. Once the emperor gets angry, no one can help. I can't ignore my father and brother. Go prepare the sedan chair. I want to go to Taiwu Hall to plead for mercy. It's too late. Go quickly."
Taiwu Hall
Doorway
Gao Cheng saw Chen Xier and Zishuang coming over and went to greet them. Now, who didn't know the purpose of Concubine Xi's visit?
"Good morning, Concubine Xi"
Chen Xier, with her big belly, looked at Gao Cheng, no longer as arrogant as before.
"Eunuch Gao, is the emperor in there? I want to see him."
Gao Cheng leaned forward slightly
"Noble Concubine Xi, the emperor is very busy today. He just said that he will not see anyone. Noble Concubine Xi, please think about the baby in your belly and go back to Xianya Palace first."
Chen Xier's eyes were red and she looked like she was about to faint at any moment, her face was extremely pale.
"No, I will wait for the emperor here."
Gao Chengdao said, "Empress Xi, why are you here? The Emperor is really busy with government affairs today and cannot spare the time to see you."
Chen Xier snorted coldly, and then shouted loudly into the Taiwu Hall
"If the emperor does not want to see me today, I will wait here until the emperor is willing to see me."
Gao Cheng stepped aside upon seeing this.
Isn't Concubine Xi's action today to force the Emperor to see her?
The emperor is angry, and this is definitely not a smart move.
