Chapter 210: The prince who was imprisoned for slander and treason...

Caomuyuan was originally just a slightly remote palace. A hundred years ago, there were unfavorable concubines living there. Later, some people committed suicide there. In addition, it was rumored that people who died unjustly came back to claim their lives. People panicked at night and were abandoned after a long time. up.

When Xie went back, he saw that the roadside was full of weeds, which turned yellow after the frost, adding to the desolation.

Seeing this scene, Lu Shiwei thought that His Majesty was unhappy, and asked in a low voice:

"Your Majesty, do you want your subordinate to order someone to clean this place?"

"No need."

The weeds growing in the cracks of the bricks looked particularly dense, and usually only the little maids who delivered meals would come here. Guard Lu pushed open the door, and the two accompanying guards walked in first, Xie Hui then stepped over the threshold, As soon as he walked over, he smelled a particularly strong musty smell, and frowned slightly in disgust.

He didn't go any further, and ordered Guard Lu to invite the Supreme Emperor out. He stood in the yard and looked at the decadent Supreme Emperor sitting on the old stool. He lowered his head and smiled slightly:

"The sons and ministers see the father."

Sitting on the stool, the Supreme Emperor was slung over his shoulders, and he was stingy even raising his head when he heard these words.

"My son has just been enthroned and is busy with business, so I didn't have time to see my father."

"Father, you know that those concubines that you loved in the harem before, your ministers ordered people to find new husbands for them. Now they are very affectionate with their husbands. The concubine Xiao Liang, who you didn't like the most before, now has a family. month's pregnancy."

This dynasty does not prohibit women from remarrying. If they can bring children, they will be regarded as a blessed person who can prosper their husband's family.

There has never been a precedent for a concubine getting married twice before. When Xie Hui just proposed this, he was persuaded by a minister for not following the rules.

It just so happened that the minister's wife was also a second-married woman, Xie Hui just casually mentioned one thing, asking the queen mother to talk to his wife about whether the second-married daughter was really unbearable, but the minister never mentioned it again, and even offered to help him in court. The hall refuted other courtiers.

"you!"

Thinking of the woman who once belonged to him and now remarrying someone else, Taishang Huang was a little bit out of breath with anger, raised his head and stared at Xie Hui viciously.

"Also, father, it is probably because you dote on the sixth younger brother too much, causing his strength to be too weak. Concubine Xian did not die that day."

The Taishanghuang, who was gasping for breath at first, now his eyes lit up again.

"Is she still alive?"

"Since Concubine Xian deserves to die, even though she did not die in the hands of the sixth brother, but the son-in-law ordered the palace guards to keep her from struggling, and it took a long time before she completely lost her breath."

When Xie Hui talked about this, there was a leisurely and indifferent smile on the corners of his lips from beginning to end. Even though he was wearing an ink-colored dragon robe, his temperament was as gentle and jade-like as that day.

"As expected of the emperor father's favorite woman, she is really good."

The sixth prince who was originally in the hall also staggered out at this moment, and asked in a hoarse voice:

"What did you do to my concubine?!"

"Sixth Brother's words are wrong. What do you mean I have done to Concubine Xian? That knife was obviously picked up by Sixth Brother himself."

It just so happened that it was snowing heavily at this time, and Lu Shiwei held up an oil-paper umbrella. Although they were in a slightly lower place in the yard, they did not feel vulnerable at all.

"I was on the side, watching Concubine Xian struggling on the icy ground. When she was dying, she was still thinking about you, father."

Xie Hui looked at the emperor screaming in pain, the smile on his lips became more gentle.

Probably they really love each other, but the love that stepped on the bones of many innocent people is just disgusting.

"Father, every time my son thinks about the scene that day, he can't help but drink a few more glasses of wine."

"The gentle and virtuous concubine Xian in your eyes said that it is better to sleep at night when the residence is built and on the water, and it is pleasant to listen to the rain hitting the plantains in summer, but why can't you see a little bit of it in the sixth brother's palace?"

"Also...why did Erchen's younger sister die that day? Does Emperor Father really not know?"

In the client's memory, the father and concubine Xian did not do much evil, but Xie Hui ordered people to arrest the people who had been serving the emperor and concubine Xian after he ascended the throne. After torture and questioning, he learned the truth far beyond the entrusted those known to the reader.

The little princess whose queen died early, the consignor always thought she was naughty and fell into the water, but only learned from the big maid next to Concubine Xian that she was pushed down by Concubine Xian in winter. The five-year-old struggled in the icy water of the lake.

When the emperor found out later, instead of punishing Concubine Xian, he helped whitewash the peace and hide it from the queen.

Although Xie Hui didn't tell the Queen, according to his speculation, the Queen didn't know about it at all. If it wasn't for this, she wouldn't be able to let go of the relationship between husband and wife for many years so easily.

"Why did my minister accept that lowly brothel prostitute into the mansion as a serious concubine, and was ridiculed by others. Is it true that the father believes that this son's character is frivolous?"

Xie Hui casually questioned each sentence, making the Supreme Emperor's complexion gradually turn pale.

"Many young children are hidden in the Sixth Brother's house, among them they are not even ten years old. Father really thinks that he is pure and good-natured?"

After finishing speaking, he felt that the client in the system space was much more comfortable. He turned his head and glanced at the guards who were waiting beside him, and ordered:

"Come on, the one who abolished the sixth brother should treat it as me apologizing for those children."

"I also heard from the servants around Sixth Brother that Sixth Brother likes to listen to children begging for mercy childishly, and then cut off his tongue."

Xie Hui took out the Buddhist beads wrapped around his wrist, fiddled with them slowly, and softly recited the Buddha's name under the screams of the sixth prince.

"Amitabha."

Not long after Xie Hui left, someone came to report that the Supreme Emperor had a stroke from anger, and now he was paralyzed on the bed and couldn't even speak clearly, asking if he should call the imperial physician.

"Let the sixth younger brother take care of me, and the imperial physician will be spared."

Since the Supreme Emperor likes the children born to Master Tongxin so much, Xie Hui is not such a stingy person, so he naturally wants to fulfill them and bind them together for the rest of their lives.

On the second day, the nanny who served the Empress Dowager came over to tell him that he would be invited to have lunch.

Xie Hui took Xie Chengqi, who had just finished school, together to salute and greet the queen mother. After lunch, Chengqi was taken outside by the nanny to play, and only their mother and son were left in the palace.

The always dignified Empress Dowager now looked as if she was several decades older. She propped her elbows on the table and held the children's clothes on the side tightly in her palm, weeping silently.

Xie returned a handkerchief, and after the Queen Mother wiped away her tears, her voice was hoarse.

"After so many years of midnight dreams, I always felt that I saw Shu An. She was wearing the clothes I sewed for her with my own hands. I said that she was so cold and wanted to be hugged by my mother."

At the beginning, Xie's parents and daughter were able to marry the royal family who had always been disliked by the family, and they had to endure a lot of tossing. How could it be possible that they had no feelings at all. Later, when she lost her beloved daughter, her heart gradually cooled down.

Hearing the Taishang Emperor's apoplexy from anger yesterday, he didn't feel any distress at all, his heart was full of joy, he knelt in front of the Buddha and copied the Buddhist scriptures all night, and ordered his mother to burn them for him this morning.

When Xie Hui was listening to the Empress Dowager, from the corner of his eye, he saw Xie Chengqi lying on the window, looking this way curiously. When he looked over, he hurriedly shrank his head back.

On the way back, Xie Chengqi looked up at his father and asked curiously:

"Daddy, who is Shu An?"

"It's your aunt."

"Then why haven't I seen it?"

"She was pushed into the icy lake by Concubine Xian, and she didn't grow up."

Hearing this, Xie Chengqi realized that he had asked a question that should not have been asked.

"Father, that Concubine Xian is so bad, why does Grandpa Huang still like him so much?"

"Probably because they smell similar."

Xie Hui originally thought that this child would realize the responsibilities on his shoulders after being a prince for a long time, and get rid of his bad habits of laziness. After two or three months, he still looks like that.

Especially in winter, it is impossible to climb out of the warm blanket.

When Xie Hui went to see it in person, as soon as he lifted the quilt, he heard him reciting the book in a daze with his eyes squinted. This serious look made him unable to bear to blame him.

Now that the crown prince has been established, the queen mother does not urge her, and the courtiers occasionally urge Xie Hui to be drafted, but he suppresses them all.

Xie Hui sometimes wondered whether most of the emperors died early because they were tired. There were so many government affairs, and they had to listen to the reports of the ministers before discussing them.

In the rest of the time, I went to see the queen mother, and then checked Chengqi's homework. I really didn't have any extra thoughts to distribute it to the harem.

Children grow up fast, and with Xie Chengqi's current status, no one dares to treat him harshly, and he has been raised as a baby fat, wearing clothes that conform to the prince's regulations, pretending to be serious and with a sullen face, when he saw Xie Chengqi He just called Daddy sweetly, Xie Hui liked the contrast and cuteness very much.

Time flies, after Xie Chengqi's sixteenth birthday, the queen mother took the initiative to mention the matter of choosing a girl when Xie went back to visit him.

"It's just right to settle down now, and you, there is no caring person to take care of you, so it's not bad to choose two at this time."

Although Xie Chengqi is good enough, but when the Queen Mother gets older, she always thinks about having more children.

"Mother, Chengqi, I'll go back and ask him if he has a beloved woman. As for the son, let's forget it."

"That's all, it's up to you."

The queen mother just mentioned it casually, and had no intention of persecuting him, so she didn't mention it again when he didn't want to.

"Just ask Cheng Qi, as long as his character is good and his family background is acceptable, even if he can't be a crown princess, it would be good to be a side concubine to accompany him."

Xie Hui let Xie Chengqi get in touch with government affairs early on, and when he left from the Queen Mother, he went straight to the study, looked at the young man sitting behind the desk reading the memorial, and shook his head at Lu Shiwei who was about to report.

"Cheng Qi."

The prince who was sitting there raised his head subconsciously when he heard this address, and when he saw that the person standing at the door was Father and Empress, he hurriedly put the pen aside, stood up and walked over.

Standing still in front of Xie Hui, he bowed and saluted.

"The sons and ministers see the father."

"Well, Pingshen, I've finished reading the memorial, can I go for a walk in the garden with me?"

Upon hearing this, Xie Chengqi agreed with a smile, regardless of how much he hadn't finished watching.

"Yes, Daddy."
