Chapter 483 Xiao Chenyan is too shameless
Shen Ruzhou spat out the words he had already thought of word for word.
On the surface, she looked repentant and begged the emperor to give her a way out so that she could marry decently in the future. In fact, she just wanted to add a talisman to herself to protect herself when Xiao Chenyan forced her.
As soon as she finished speaking, the imperial concubine shed two lines of clear tears and said heartbrokenly: "Your Majesty, even if Ruzhou did some stupid things before, he has now reconciled and gone to the nunnery to meditate and repent. He has suffered a lot. , it can be considered that she has learned a lesson. After all, she is a girl, and she will still marry in the future. I beg the emperor to grant her mercy and give her a way out."
After hearing this, Emperor Yong'an felt a little pity for Shen Ruzhou, and nodded in agreement, "Okay, whoever you want to marry in the future, just come and ask for permission, and I will ensure that you get married in style."
"My lord, thank you for your kindness." Shen Ruzhou kowtowed respectfully. When he looked up again, he suddenly found Xiao Chenyan standing beside her.
Obviously, Xiao Chenyan had seen through her plan and immediately said, "Father, I am afraid that I am a little anxious about this matter. How could I have promised to issue a decree to grant a marriage before I have decided on my husband's family? This is not the case in our court." precedent.”
Despite his respectful attitude and sincere words, he still angered Emperor Yong'an.
"Pa" The tea cup on the low table was swept to the ground, and Emperor Yong'an said angrily: "I'm not dead yet. It's not up to you to agree whether to issue the decree or not."
Seeing Emperor Yong'an's anger, Xiao Chenyan hurriedly knelt down to plead guilty: "Father, please calm down, I have no intention of overstepping my bounds."
Emperor Yong'an stared at Xiao Chenyan with his eyes, carrying the pressure of an emperor.
After a long time, he sighed, waved his hand and said, "You all can go down, I'm tired."
"Yes." Everyone quickly bowed their heads and exited the hall.
After coming out, the imperial concubine took Shen Ruzhou's hand and said, "I asked the small kitchen to prepare snow pear and white fungus soup when I came here. You can go back with me and use some."
"Okay." Shen Ruzhou agreed with a smile on his face. The imperial concubine had been a big help in being able to request this imperial edict today. She had planned to go over and say thank you.
Xiao Chenyan on the side also came over at some point and said shamelessly: "I also want to try the concubine's white fungus soup. I wonder if we can go together?"
The imperial concubine cursed in her heart for being shameless, but with a smile on her face, "It's an honor for me that His Highness the Crown Prince is willing to show your favor."
The corners of Shen Ruzhou's eyes couldn't help but twitch twice, and he just felt upset and unbearable, but he couldn't avoid it at this point, so he had to lower his head and follow him to the imperial concubine's palace.
As soon as they left, a dark shadow flashed into Emperor Yong'an's palace.
Zheng Jinming, the commander of the Royal Forest Army, knelt on the ground and reported the truth to Emperor Yong'an about the news he had recently discovered.
"Your Majesty, I have verified that the eunuch who was brought out of the palace to deal with the prince was named Liu Youde. He couldn't bear to do anything to a newborn baby, so he handed the baby to a passing farmer. Then he returned to the palace and lied that the baby had been buried alive. .”
"This Liu Youde was later found to have unclean hands and feet and was almost beaten to death. The regent happened to see him and interceded for him, so the general manager spared his life. The man then went to the regent's palace to work as a roughneck."
When Emperor Yong'an heard this, he hurriedly said: "Since we know where the person is, why don't we quickly capture him and interrogate him."
Zheng Jinming leaned over and touched his forehead to the ground, and then carefully replied: "Your Majesty, I forgive you, but I left a step too late. When I arrived at the Regent's Palace, I had already disappeared."
Emperor Yong'an suddenly turned pale and his voice was cold, "Did Beixiu Yan hide him?"
Zheng Jinming said hurriedly: "It shouldn't be the case. The regent is not in Kyoto right now, and I heard that people from the regent's palace are also looking for Liu Youde."
After listening to his explanation, Emperor Yong'an just came back to his senses, and a shrewd light flashed in his eyes.
"I am also concerned about causing chaos. There is no reason for Beixiuyan to stop me from finding the prince. I am afraid that someone is behind this matter."
Emperor Yong'an did not say it clearly, and Zheng Jinming knew who the person he was talking about was, but this was not something that a minister of his could say in vain, so he did not answer the question.
Then, Emperor Yong'an snorted coldly and ordered: "Keep looking, be sure to be careful and don't leak any information."
