Chapter 1036

There is a funeral in the mansion. As the mother, the eldest prince and concubine have to take care of it.

So this time she went out quietly without a bodyguard, and she was also riding in an ordinary carriage. As soon as these beggars gathered around, the palace maids and eunuchs who followed them were frightened and rushed to drive them away.

But there were more and more beggars, and soon the carriage was surrounded by beggars.

Never met this kind of situation, the big prince imperial concubine also muddled for a moment, slow after the God comes, busy command own intimate palace maid, "quick, give them silver."

The maid in waiting was also frightened. Wen Yan took out the silver coins and threw them out.

Beggars swarmed to rob, you earn me to rob, more and more bet the road in front of the carriage to death.

"You all throw out the silver!"

The eldest prince's concubine gave orders in a trembling voice. She had never seen such a scene before, and she was so scared that her hands and feet softened.

The accompanying maids and eunuchs took out all their silver and threw it at the beggars.

This time, the beggars burst the pot, snatched, pushed, scolded, more and more into a mess.

The horse was frightened and hissed. The coachman held the reins tightly.

However, these beggars were greedy. No matter what they got or didn't get, they all rushed to the carriage and stretched out their dirty hands one by one to tear the things on the carriage.

The palace maids and eunuchs who followed were squeezed close to the carriage and could not move.

The maid of honor is in front of the prince.

The curtain of the car was suddenly pulled off, and the dirty faces of several beggars appeared in front of them.

The great prince and imperial concubine screamed, "get off, get off!"

The beggars turned a deaf ear, and some even climbed into the carriage.

When the sound of horse's hooves came, the soldiers from the five cities came and saw the chaotic situation. They rushed with a pair of soldiers and whipped the beggars away.

Palace maids and eunuchs were sitting on the ground in ragged clothes, panting for the rest of their lives.

The Grand Prince, the imperial concubine and the two palace maids were also paralyzed in the carriage.

The decorations and curtains of the carriage were torn off, and even the roof of the horse was lifted up. The situation inside the carriage was very clear.

This is sun Tongling from the army and Horse Department of five cities. Today, he is supposed to patrol the city. When he comes here and hears something, he brings people to see the tragic situation of these masters and servants. He knows that this is the first time that they have encountered such a thing.

He didn't know the princess. He came down from the carriage and saw that no one was hurt. He told them, "if you encounter such things in the future, don't give them anything. Just disperse them."

All the people were still in shock, and no one paid attention to him.

Seeing them like this, he knew that they were scared. Sun Tongling was very kind, "where do you live? I'll take you back. "

"No, No."

Or the great prince and concubine came back first and declined his kindness.

Commander sun looked at her suspiciously. When normal people encounter this kind of situation, they are very happy to hear someone send them back, but the people on the carriage refuse. There must be something wrong with it.

Then I carefully looked at the prince, the imperial concubine and the people who were with them to see which rich family they should be. Then I looked at the elegant courtyard not far away, and I understood that this is a private lover.

"In that case, you'd better slow down. This is a remote place where beggars often come and go“

Hearing what he said and thinking of the scene just now, the eldest prince and the imperial concubine and a group of maids and eunuchs turned pale again, but the maids next to them still said, "thank you for reminding me, we know."

Commander sun led the people away.

The paralyzed palace maids and eunuchs stood up and sorted themselves out. They picked up the dirty curtains that had been thrown on the ground.

Shake clean, want to hang up, cover inside. But the curtain has been worn and wrinkled. It's much smaller and can't cover all of them.

The maid in waiting thought of a way. She pulled off the waist strap of herself and another maid in waiting, tied one corner of the curtain to the other side of the carriage, and barely covered the inside.

"Let's go“

The great prince and concubine are still in fear, and they want to fly away from this place.

The coachman was not only pulled, but also beaten just now. Smell speech, black and blue of brandish whip, drive carriage to return to big Prince Mansion.

When they walked away, Feng Cheng came out from a corner, looked at the direction of the carriage's disappearance, took out a silver ticket and gave it to his entourage, then gave him a few words in a low voice.

The valet flew away with the silver ticket.

Feng Cheng turned and got on the carriage not far away. "Go to fight the palace."

Feng Che has been waiting for the news of Feng Cheng. Hearing that the letter of divorce has been robbed by the crown princess, he shakes his head with a smile.

It seems that the great prince and his wife are anxious. Even people like Feng Cheng are going to provoke them.

"What do you need me to do?"

Feng Cheng is a man who will always be rewarded. He won't suffer from this dumb loss. There will be a way out.

"Prince Zhan can wait for good news. I'm sure she'll spit out how she took it away."

……

An hour later, I don't know where the rumor came out that the eldest prince's concubine was besieged by a group of beggars when she went to meet her lover. If it wasn't for the fact that sun Tongling of the five City Army and horse division happened to be patrolling there, he might have given his life.

This rumor, like the wind, soon spread all over the streets of the capital, to the ears of civil and military officials, and to the ears of the emperors and queens in the palace.

The emperor flew into a rage and ordered the queen to go over and scold him.

"He is the eldest son of the emperor, and my throne will be his sooner or later, but look at him. What did he do to make me look good?"

"And the prince and concubine, didn't you tell me at the beginning that she was knowledgeable, honest, virtuous, graceful, beautiful and intelligent? Are these used to steal people? "

The queen just heard the news and was shocked. But after all, the eldest prince and concubine was her own daughter-in-law. She still understood it. Naturally, she didn't believe it. She explained, "these are the filthy words of the common people. The emperor can't believe it."

"No wind, no fire. If she stays well in her own house, can she spread such rumors?"

"Someone must have incited you behind your back to punish you severely in anger. You can't be fooled by the emperor."

The emperor would like to have a cup of tea smashed on her head and smashed her head open to see what was inside. Even if someone wants to deal with Xiao Yi, there will be no wind but no fire. What's more, sun Tongling of the five cities army and horse Division will testify.

"Zhang De and Xuan Xiao Yi entered the palace."

When Mr. Zhang went to pass the edict, the eldest prince didn't hear the news outside. He was surprised to see Mr. Zhang, "Mr. Zhang, what's the matter with us?"

Mr. Zhang wants to talk but stops.

It happened that the eunuch in the mansion came in flurried, "Lord..."

Words export, see Zhang Gonggong in, immediately stunned.

The great prince frowned, "what kind of system are you in a hurry?"

"Lord, Lord, something's wrong."

"What's the matter?"

The eunuch in charge looked at Mr. Zhang, tiptoed to the prince and whispered a few words.

The prince's face changed. He subconsciously looked at Mr. Zhang, who nodded slightly and made a buzzing sound in his head.

The eldest prince and concubine came back with the letter of divorce. He was very happy, but he didn't think that in such a short time, there was such a rumor in Beijing.

"Please be more agile, the emperor will wait."

The prince's hand tightened.

When they got to the carriage, the princess heard that her white face turned red. "It's just a rumor."

The eldest prince knows that this is a rumor, but at this time, the imperial concubine does not manage the funeral of the side concubine in the mansion, but appears in that place. How can he tell his father later?

After thinking all the way, they didn't expect a good speech. They went into Yangxin hall and saluted the emperor and queen.

"Come on, what's going on?"

The emperor also wants to know what the big prince's imperial concubine has gone to do, let the person grasp the handle.

The eldest prince lied, "father, we have been wronged. It must be someone who wants to kill us that we deliberately spread such rumors."

If he honestly admitted it, the emperor's anger might be gone, but he denied it. The emperor's anger came up again and asked in an angry voice, "do you mean that someone did it on purpose? Your good prince and concubine have not been to that place?"

"Yes."

The eldest prince admitted.

Pop!

The emperor smashed a cup of tea at his feet. "You're really good at it. Even the people in the Department of military and horse of five cities want to frame you?"

There is also the matter of the five City Army and horse division. The eldest prince is a little confused. He looks at the imperial concubine and sees that her face turns white instantly. He knows that it's not good, but he can only stick to it and turn his head, "father, what you say, my son doesn't understand."

"Good, good, good“

The emperor nodded angrily. The eldest prince was his first child and his own son. Naturally, he was more partial than other sons. As for the throne, he didn't want to pass it on to others. He had been reluctant to establish the crown prince. He was afraid that the eldest prince would take advantage of his status as the crown prince and form a faction to control the government, forcing him to resign early.

But I didn't expect that their husband and wife were in such a bad mood that they went too far every time.

"Come on, pass it on to the people of the five cities army and horse division.

Sun Tongling was passed on. He went into the hall, bowed his head, knelt down and kowtowed, "I kowtow to the emperor and empress."

"I ask you, did you ever save a man besieged by beggars at noon today?"

"I did."

Commander sun replied truthfully, "at that time, I was really embarrassed when I saw them. I wanted to send them back, but I was rejected."

"Look up and see if it's a man in this temple?"

Sun Tongling looked up and looked around the hall. At last, his eyes fell on the princess. He saw her standing beside the prince and knew her identity.

Surprised not light, lowered his head, for the sake of caution, "can you please the big prince princess say a word?"

The eyes of the people in the Hall fell on the great prince and imperial concubine.

She opened her mouth. For the first time, she didn't make a sound. She closed it, slowed down, opened it again, and said, "thank you very much."

Sun Tongling confirmed that it was her, but he hesitated when he thought of the identity of the eldest prince.

A little eunuch came in and whispered a few words in Mr. Zhang's ear. Mr. Zhang waved him back, and then bowed himself to report, "emperor, Feng Shaoqing asked to see him, saying that it was him that the eldest prince and concubine went to see him today!"

The sound of words fell, and the hall was silent, and the needles could be heard.

Sun Tongling broke out in a cold sweat, lowered his head and did not dare to move.

After a while, I heard the emperor's voice, "pass on!"

Feng Cheng came in, kowtowed and straightened up. "I came to testify to the great prince. What she went to see in the courtyard today is Wei Chen."

The emperor stares at him, see him look calm, squint, "for what?"

"The letter of suspension given to Mrs. Dou by censor Dou."

"The letter of suspension?"

"Yes, I have some friendship with censor Dou. I don't believe that he will force his wife and daughter to death. If I want to vindicate him, I go to prison to see him. I know from his mouth that he wrote a letter of divorce to Mrs. Dou. Maybe it is because of this letter that Mrs. Dou couldn't think of it and hanged herself. The minister then went to investigate, until today only then had the eyebrow, took the divorce letter to hand. I don't know where the imperial concubine got the news from. First, his generals' wives and children "invited" them to come over and threatened them to give her the letter of divorce. "

There was no expression on the emperor's face. He took a fancy to the prince. "What he said is the truth?"

Now, he can't deny it. The eldest prince takes out the letter of divorce and raises his hands over his head. Duke Zhang takes it and presents it to the emperor.

Looking at this wrinkled letter, the handwriting is fuzzy, only "the letter" two words can see the letter. The emperor's face is uglier than the eldest prince's. on that day, the eldest prince's imperial concubine came into the palace to complain that Dou Qian had forced his daughter to death. He immediately believed it. After all, Dou Qian's temperament is straight, and his son was killed by the prince. It's reasonable for him to let his daughter leave the prince's mansion. So he ordered Dou Qian to be put into prison, but he didn't expect that it was framed by the prince. That day, Dou Qian didn't force his daughter to leave the prince's mansion, but sent his wife a letter of divorce.

Staring at the prince, "what else do you two have to say?"

The prince kowtowed to the ground, "my son is wrong. Please forgive me."

"Go back to your house and reflect on yourself. You are not allowed to leave your house without my orders!"

Before waiting for the eldest prince to thank him, Feng Cheng said, "the emperor, I think the eldest prince should apologize to imperial censor Dou, and personally take him out of prison, and... My wife and children are also frightened."

It's unprecedented for a prince to apologize to the censor who resigned. Naturally, the emperor doesn't want to lose his face.

Feng Cheng also anticipates his psychology and says, "as far as the public is concerned, the eldest prince is Dou Qian's father-in-law. Taking him out of prison will only make people feel that the eldest prince has filial piety. After all, Dou qian does not have a son and a half, and the eldest prince is the only one close to him. Moreover, if the prince lowered his attitude, maybe Dou Qian would not care about the crime he framed, and naturally he would not be held responsible for forcing him to hand over the letter of suspension. "

When he said this, the Hall fell into silence again.

After a long time, I heard the emperor's deep voice, "Xiao Yi, are you willing to pick Dou Qian out of prison in person?"
