"You can also have other honors, why do you have to be the crown prince? Do you want the prince to be laughed at for the rest of his life?" Concubine Yuan Gui was very angry.
“The dead are soon forgotten and no one dares to say anything.”
“I don’t care if I am a concubine, I can enter the imperial mausoleum, but I cannot focus on the name of the princess.”
"The imperial edict has been issued and cannot be changed. I know that this matter is unfair to you and the prince, and I will compensate you." Emperor Beili was also helpless.
??The ancestors of the Zhong family all came forward to talk about the matter. He either punished Yuan Yintang and the imperial concubine, or gave Ye Qianning great honor and favor to calm it down.
It can be seen that the royal family is sincerely saddened by Ye Qianning''s death. Only by ordering the princess to be buried in the imperial mausoleum can people know that the royal family attaches great importance to it.
"I don''t want any compensation." Concubine Yuan Gui cried and said, "Your Majesty, you know very well the temperament of the famous people in Kyoto City. Even if they don''t say it on the surface, they will mention it behind their backs. If the stain cannot be suppressed, someone will always remember it."
"Okay, don''t cry." Emperor Beili was already upset and had no patience. After a few rounds of persuasion, he looked slightly unhappy.
“Your Majesty, I beg you, my concubine.”
"The imperial edict has been issued and there is no possibility of reversal. In the final analysis, it is not all the wrong things you have done. I am not doing this just because of you." Emperor Beili frowned: "Step back, I am already very tired. I don’t want to say any more.”
Concubine Yuan Gui wiped the corners of her eyes and observed secretly. Seeing the emperor''s expression, she knew the result in her heart. Damn it, Ye Qianning, the prince would be involved in his death.
??How abominable!
“Your Majesty, the prince wants to see you.”
??Bei Li Emperor raised his eyes: "Xuan."
Concubine Yuan Gui was surprised as to why the prince had returned to the palace.
“My son, please see your father and the emperor, and see your mother and concubine.” Sang Qi came in from the door and stepped forward to salute.
“Get up.”
“Thank you, Father.” Sang Qi stood up.
“It’s not Xiu Mu today, why are you back in the palace?” Emperor Beili waved his hand for him to sit down.
Sang Qi sat obediently on a chair nearby and said with a puffy face: "Back to my father, I heard... I heard about Sifang Mountain."
"The matter spread to the academy so quickly? It seems that Dean Chen has neglected his management." Emperor Beili''s voice was neither soft nor serious, and he rubbed his temples with his fingers.
Sang Qi sat quietly, his face a little pale: "I want to go to the General''s Mansion to pay homage, and please ask my father''s permission."
??Bei Li Emperor was a little surprised when he heard this, but he quickly reacted, and his voice was a little joyful: "That''s right."
Concubine Yuan Guifei was not surprised.
“Thank you, Father.”
"Qi''er, you...why do you want to pay homage to her?" Concubine Yuan Gui came back to her senses and her words were unbelievable.
“She was engaged to my son, and now that she is dead, my son should pay homage to her.” Sang Qi said seriously.
"No, as the crown prince, you cannot go to pay homage to her. It would be beneath your status." Concubine Yuan Gui refused.
Sang Qi looked at Concubine Yuan Gui: "Concubine, I have taught my children that death is the most important thing. Even if she was arrogant and unreasonable, my children did hate her, but she is dead, so all festivals should end. "
"If you go, wouldn''t it be..."
“Okay.” Beili’s appreciative voice interrupted Concubine Yuan Gui’s words.
Concubine Yuan Guifei grabbed the veil and was very unhappy.
"You are indeed my son. Taking the overall situation into consideration, I will have someone **** you to the General''s Mansion tomorrow." Emperor Beili was delighted.
“Your Majesty.” Concubine Yuan Gui was anxious.
??With the prince gone, wouldn''t it mean that Ye Qianning''s reputation as the crown princess has been confirmed?
"Okay, the prince is more concerned about the overall situation than you at such a young age, so what else can you say?" Emperor Beili looked at Concubine Yuan Gui and did not allow her to refute.
Concubine Yuan Gui pursed her lips, annoyed with the emperor''s decision, and also complained a little about her son. What kind of nonsense did he learn in the academy, and the dead one is the most important?
Life is despicable, death is even despicable, and death cannot be noble!
Sang Qi pursed his lips and lowered his eyes. He had been to the general''s mansion, which was filled with white lanterns. Standing outside the mansion, he could hear cries in the courtyard several times.
He dared not go in.
??Although he hated Ye Qianning, he never wanted her to die.
"Father, what happened in Sifang Mountain?" "I heard that they are from Dongsi. I have sent people to investigate the matter, so don''t ask about it. After tomorrow''s memorial ceremony, you can go directly back to the school palace. You can''t delay your studies. "Emperor Beili didn''t want the prince to know too much.
“My sons and ministers obey my orders.”
“Your Majesty.” The young **** came in hurriedly.
“Why are you so panicked?”
“Dean Chen, Mr. Zhan and Prime Minister Qian are asking for an audience.”
Upon hearing this, Emperor Beili''s good mood dissipated in an instant. The three of them entering the palace must have done nothing good: "Has Eunuch Li returned to the palace?"
“Eunuch Li is also outside the palace.”
“Send them in.”
"yes."
The little **** exited the door.
“My dear concubine, you and the prince should leave first.”
“Yes, I will take my leave.” Sang Qi stood up and saluted.
“I, my concubine, retire.”
Concubine Yuan Gui saluted and led Sang Qi out of the door before she happened to meet Dean Chen and his entourage who came in.
“Dean.” Sang Qi cupped his hands and called out respectfully.
“Your Highness, it seems that you are not in Xiu Mu today. Why did you return to the palace?” Dean Chen asked.
“The student heard that something happened in the General’s Mansion and broke the rules of the academy without informing the master. When he returns to the academy tomorrow, he will go to the master to receive his punishment.” Sang Qi’s words and deeds were much calmer than before.
??Dean Chen was startled when he heard him mention the affairs of the General''s Mansion, and then he agreed and walked into the room.
?Zhan Yi and Qian Fu in the rear only saluted perfunctorily, did not say a word, and did not wait for the other party to speak. They walked in with a cold face.
Concubine Yuan Gui was dissatisfied with Zhan Yi who walked in and snorted coldly in her heart. She was really very high-minded.
“See you, Your Majesty the Imperial Concubine, Your Highness the Crown Prince.” Eunuch Li bowed in a formal manner.
Concubine Yuan Gui looked back and noticed the imperial edict in his hand, and her eyes were filled with confusion. Didn''t Eunuch Li go to the General''s Mansion to declare the edict?
?Why did he come back with the imperial edict?
Is it possible...
“Mother, let’s go.” Sang Qi said.
Concubine Yuan Gui glanced at her twice more before walking out slowly.
She walked down the steps of Longlin Hall numbly. The more she thought about it, the more something was wrong and she stopped.
“Concubine, what’s wrong?” Sang Qi was puzzled.
“Qi’er, please go back to the East Palace first. My mother-in-law will look for you later.”
“Is there something wrong, concubine?”
"Well, Qi''er will go back first." Concubine Yuan Gui was a little anxious. She turned around and walked up the steps regardless of Sang Qi''s doubts.
The little **** at the door blocked the way: "My dear concubine, please allow me to go in and report back."
“No need, I’m just standing here waiting for the emperor.” Concubine Yuan Gui stood at the door, listening intently to what was going on in the palace.
When Sang Qi saw Concubine Yuan Gui like this, he immediately guessed what she wanted. He frowned slightly, raised his feet and walked back. Eavesdropping was the work of a villain.
Inside the palace
“See the Emperor.”
Dean Chen and others saluted in unison.
??Eunuch Li stood at the back holding the imperial edict, his heart tense. No one had ever dared to return the imperial edict. It didn''t take much to think about it, but he knew that the emperor would be furious at the next moment.
??Bei Li Emperor raised his hand and motioned for several people to get up: "Why did the teacher come into the palace so late?"
