Chapter 536
When Concubine Zhao heard this, she was stunned for a moment, and soon burst out laughing, "Yes, it's the poison I gave you, hahahaha... I gave you the poison, if I poison you to death too How wonderful it would be hahaha..."
Laughed and laughed, and cried again.
"Cousin, please save me. I know who poisoned me. As long as you save me, I will tell you. I don't want to live here. Please save me."
You go and tell the emperor, he likes you so much and will definitely listen to you. "
Zhao Concubine has always been jealous of the queen. She was jealous before she left the palace, and became even more jealous after entering the palace.
Why does everyone like her, even the most noble man in the world likes her? Why?
She tried every possible means to please that man, but the way he looked at her was always so ruthless.
Only when you see this cousin will your eyes reveal true feelings.
She was jealous, unwilling, and wanted to kill this cousin.But she couldn't, because the queen was her cousin after all, and the Zhao family was attached to the Duke's mansion, so she could only endure the jealousy in her heart.
But seeing the queen becoming more and more favored day by day, she was filled with jealousy beyond recognition.
When she learned that the queen was poisoned, God knows how happy she was that day.
I wish that the queen, her sister and the two children would all be poisoned to death, and no one would be left alive.
However, she was only happy for a while and then became worried again.
If the queen dies, there will be a new queen soon.She knew that she was favored only for the sake of the emperor. If someone else was the queen, would the emperor still pay attention to her?
Will the new queen think her child is in the way and want to kill her child?
So even if you are jealous in your heart, you must pray for the queen and hope that she survives safely.
After hearing what Concubine Zhao said, the queen turned around and left without asking any other questions.Zhao Concubine was still shouting crazily from behind, but she could no longer reach the Queen's ears.
"Your Majesty, aren't you really Zhao Concubine?"
The queen shook her head, "It's not her."
At that time, Zhao Concubine and the Zhao family were not yet full-fledged. They would not want her to die. There must be someone else.
"Is Concubine Zhao still here?" Aunt Wei asked again.
The queen thought for a moment and said, "Don't bother."
Even if Zhao Bi didn't poison her, she had done a lot over the years.He joined forces with the Zhao family to deceive his mother, making the gap between mother and daughter deeper and deeper. The Duke's mansion is in its current state, and it is all related to Zhao Concubine.
Letting her die like this would be too cheap for her. Let her enjoy the rest of her life in the cold palace.
After the queen returned, she went to the imperial study to meet the emperor.
*
The Duke of Guo's Mansion divided the family half a month after the death of Duke En Guo, and the eldest son moved out of the Duke of Guo's Mansion.Zhou Jinkang graciously gave his eldest son more shops and money, hoping to gain a good reputation.
In addition to these two rooms in the house, there are also two concubines, and this time they divided their families together.
They don't want to move out of the Duke's Mansion. No matter who becomes the Duke, it has nothing to do with them.
If they stay in the Duke's Mansion, they will be the people of the Duke's Mansion. After they move out, they will be nothing.
Zhou Jinkang wanted to take complete control of the Duke's palace, so he even coaxed and persuaded the two bastards to separate together, and also gave him some more property.
The Duke's mansion has a profound foundation. Even though its status has become worse and worse in recent years, it still has a lot of money.The Zhao family occasionally beat the autumn wind, but in fact they didn't take out much.
Zhou Jinkang didn't care about the money. When he became the Duke of the country, he would get back double the money he gave out.
From now on, he is the Duke of the country!
He had trusted connections in the court and asked people to help him present the memorial, asking the emperor to give him the title of the Duke of Guo.
Before that person could report, the imperial edict came from the Duke's Mansion.
After hearing this, Zhou Jinkang led his whole family to the front hall as quickly as possible to receive the order. The whole family could not hide their joy.
Everyone knew that this must be the emperor's decree for Zhou Jinkang to inherit the title.
result!
After hearing the imperial edict, everyone was stunned. Zhou Jinkang, who was at the front, softened and collapsed directly on the ground.
What does the edict say?
Seize the title?
how can that be possible? !
"Master Zhou, please accept the order."
The recent separation of the family in Duke Guo's Mansion has become well known to everyone. Just after the incident happened to Duke En Guo, the second-in-command jumped out and forced the family to separate. It was so cold-hearted that many people looked down upon him.
The father-in-law who delivered the decree also heard about this. No wonder the Queen would take the initiative to let the emperor seize the title of the Duke's Mansion.
Putting the title in the hands of such a person will only bring trouble to the Duke's palace.
Zhou Jinkang was so shocked that he didn't even hear Eunuch Liu's words and remained slumped on the ground.
"Master Zhou, do you want to resist the decree?"
This time Zhou Jinkang heard it and hurriedly took the imperial edict with both hands, "I thank you, Your Majesty."
Eunuch Liu was too lazy to look at the faces of this family and left the Duke's mansion with the servants who delivered the order.No, from now on this is only the Zhou Mansion, not the Duke of Guo's Mansion anymore.
After Eunuch Liu and the others left, Zhou Jinkang quickly opened the imperial edict. As if struck by lightning, he heard correctly. The emperor had really taken back the title of the Duke of Guo.
"Dad, what's going on? Didn't you say that you will become the Duke of the country after my uncle makes a mistake?"
"Dad, didn't you promise to invite me to be crowned the crown prince?"
"It's obvious that the person who made the mistake is the uncle, why did he take away the title of Duke's Mansion?"
"Master, go find your mother quickly and ask your mother to go to the palace to ask the queen. The queen will definitely ask the emperor to take back the imperial edict."
The noise from his children and his wife made Zhou Jinkang's mind confused. It wasn't until he heard Mrs. Liu saying that he was looking for the queen that he suddenly came to his senses.
Yes, this matter is not over, there is still the queen.
The Duke's Mansion is the Queen's backing, and now that there is no Zhao family to restrain him, he can do his best to assist the Twelve Princes. The Queen will definitely be able to figure out how to help.
The family rushed towards Zhao's yard at the back.
Mrs. Zhao has been ill again recently. Her eldest son killed her brother and sister-in-law, and her entire family was imprisoned overnight and will soon be executed. It was a huge blow to her.
And her poor daughter, who was married to the Zhao family on her own initiative, is now implicated.
She has to ask herself every day, why is this happening?
"Mom, no, mom, something big has happened."
Zhao's heart trembled when she heard that something big had happened.The last time someone shouted like this, and then told her that her mother-in-law and son were gone.
Ms. Zhao struggled to sit up and asked anxiously, "What happened?"
"Mother, the emperor just issued a decree to take back the title of the Duke of Guo. From now on, it will no longer be the palace of the Duke of Guo. Mother, before anyone else knows about this, please go to the palace to see the queen and ask the queen for help.
The queen definitely doesn't know now, and she won't ignore it if she knows. "
Zhao family was stunned there. The emperor had taken away the title of the Duke of Guo?
She staggered and fell down on the bed again, "How could you seize the title of the Duke's Mansion? No, help me up quickly. I will go into the palace to see the Queen."
