The state of Qi, the capital city and the imperial palace.
Despite Cheng Zheng's obstruction, Zhao Rao has to go back to the palace to find Princess de. when she comes to the palace, she knows that Zhao Yong is here.
Princess De is kneeling in front of Zhao Yong. Her beautiful and gentle face looks pale and her eyes are calm. She seems to have expected the scene of today. However, Zhao LAN and her second prince are worried.
"Rao'er, what are you doing here?" Zhao Yong hasn't started asking questions. Seeing Zhao Rao break in, he looks at Cheng Zheng behind him with displeasure.
Cheng Zheng just didn't see the displeasure in Zhao Yong's eyes. After a salute, he stood beside him in silence.
Zhao Rao's eyes turn from Zhao Yong to the virtuous concubine kneeling on the ground. She asks word by word, "you poisoned my mother, don't you?"
"You have no proof, don't injustice my mother and concubine!" When the second prince saw Zhao Rao appear, he was already in a great hurry. He even suspected that she had set up a bureau to frame up her mother's concubine.
"Father and emperor, mother and concubine have always been kind and gentle, and will never do anything harmful to nature. Please ask the father and the emperor to make decisions for the mother and concubine." Zhao Lan's face turned pale. She didn't know how much evidence her father had. She only knew that her mother's concubine could not be convicted.
Zhao Rao doesn't pay attention to the second prince. She just looks at Princess de with sharp and cold eyes.
"Rao'er, stand aside and you two will get up." Zhao Yong spoke in a low voice. Today he just wanted to interrogate Princess de alone, but he didn't expect that the second prince would know the news. It seems that his harem is being watched.
Zhao LAN and the second prince looked at each other. They were nervous, but they were afraid of Zhao Yong since they were young. They never dared to resist him. When they heard that, they had to stand up and stand opposite Zhao Rao.
The second prince stares at Zhao Rao coldly, and swears secretly that when he ascends the throne in the future, the first one to kill is the eldest princess to give this breath for his mother's concubine.
Cheng Zheng lightly looked at them, and finally just worried to see Zhao Rao.
Zhao Yong is sitting in the chair. Did he want to deal with Princess de and let her die last night? It was too easy and too cheap for her. Later, he realized that what he was worried about was not what would happen to Princess Defei, but how to do it, which was the best compensation for Zhao Rao.
"Princess De, the first queen is not bad to you. You know it well. Tell me, why do you want to do this?" Zhao Yong asked in a low voice.
Although Cheng Ying is coquettish and arrogant, she never disdains to deal with other women in the palace with small hands. She has her pride. Even if she hates him and dotes on Princess De, she is more angry that she betrays her. At most, she just doesn't care about her and has not done anything. He is very clear about this.
Because Cheng Ying is such a temperament, he has never moved to abandon her idea.
"My father..." The second emperor and the son are in a hurry. The meaning of the father's words is clearly that the mother's concubine poisoned the former queen, and the former empress has died for so many years. How can we know that it was the mother's concubine who killed her? It is Zhao Rao who played a trick behind her.
Zhao Yong gave the second prince a sharp, cold look, and immediately silenced him from speaking.
"Emperor, my concubine did not kill the first queen." The princess lowered her head and whispered. In fact, she knew very well that it would be useless for her to argue any more. If there was no evidence, the emperor would not appear here to question her, and beauty Wang would not be found out as a Huibin. She looked up at Zhao Yong, but saw that his eyes were cold as water. It seemed that she was waiting for her to continue talking. For a moment, the imperial concubine understood that the emperor knew one Cut it.
"I don't do harm to the empress's heart She died, and my concubine was very sad Princess de buried her head on the ground, "my concubine is just Just want to protect themselves, want to protect their children. "
Zhao Rao looked at her coldly and heard her finally let go of her mouth. I don't know why. Now, even if the truth comes out, how about it? Will the queen mother know?
"Mother's wife!" The second prince and Zhao LAN spoke at the same time. They didn't expect that Princess de admitted it so quickly.
"The first queen never hurt you." Zhao Yong said coldly, "what do you want to protect yourself from? Did you say you didn't hurt her when you drugged her
Princess de said, "if she gave birth to a prince, she would certainly not tolerate the children of my concubines. I dare not gamble. The first queen did not harm my concubine, but many people wanted to help her get rid of her concubines. The second prince was poisoned when he was a child. You know, the emperor, even if it was not from the first queen's hand, she was also aware of it. She did not stop those people from harming her children."
"My mother once regarded you as a sister's confidant. You betrayed her as if you had stabbed her in the heart. You still expect my mother to protect you and your children. When other people hurt your children, what you resent is my mother?" Zhao Rao was so angry that her chest heaved violently. If she was the empress dowager, she would have killed Princess de at all costs. Would she have given birth to a child? Her mother is sometimes strong, but the heart is kind, otherwise will let Princess de give birth to two children?
Zhao Rao's words are questioning the princess de. in fact, he is not hating Zhao Yong, but Zhao Yong just droops her eyes.
Princess de gently shook her head, "I know I'm sorry for the first queen, the eldest princess. I didn't think I would kill the first queen."At that time, she was like a magic barrier. Seeing that the emperor was getting better and better towards the queen, she seemed to have lost the momentum of tit for tat. She knew very well that if the queen gave birth to the prince, her mother and son would not have a good life. She just wanted the queen to have an abortion, and she didn't want to kill her.
"You are very clear about my mother's physical condition at that time. She was depressed in her heart, and her body was weak and could not be stimulated at all. You drugged her and said that she didn't intend to kill her?" Zhao Rao asked sternly.
"If the first empress was not too strong and forced too much, my mother would not have come up with such a self-protection method." The second prince argued for Princess De.
Zhao Yong looked at everyone lightly, "shut up!"
The imperial concubine kowtowed heavily to Zhao Yong, "the emperor, my concubine knows that I deserve to die. I beg the emperor to give me the sin. I only ask the emperor to treat the third princess and the second prince more leniently. They don't know anything. What my concubine did has nothing to do with them."
"What about the other concubines?" Zhao Yong didn't have any pity and tenderness in his eyes. It was unintentional to kill the former queen. Did she harm others unintentionally?
Princess De's face turned white, and she remembered that Wang Meiren had been found out. What she had done at that time could not be concealed from Zhao Yong.
"Do you have anything else to say?" Zhao Yong asked.
"I..." "I just don't want anyone to argue with my concubine..."
She wanted Zhao Yong to spoil her only, and wanted only the second prince in the palace. She didn't know when her heart became so big. The emperor had only spoiled her, although only to suppress the queen, she was infatuated with the happiness of being spoiled alone.
At that time, she was frantically trying to grasp the feeling of happiness, so she did a lot of things that she felt terrible now.
