When the Empress heard these words, her face turned white with fright.
Her eyes were filled with anger as she angrily stared at the two old men.
These two old things were really not afraid of death. They actually dared to reprimand her.
Hongyuan Emperor saw the angry appearance of the two ministers and his eyes also shrank.
If they wanted him to investigate, wouldn't they be investigating himself?
Chu Xuanchen did not expect that Grand Tutor Han and Grand Tutor Li would stand up for him. However, these two had always been upright and only defended the truth and justice. They would not side with anyone.
When they saw the Empress try to murder his son, they naturally could not stand by and stood up to force the Emperor to investigate.
If this continued, the Emperor would be in a difficult position.
"Bold Empress!" At this time, Hongyuan Emperor's face suddenly turned ashen. He slapped the Empress' face, causing her to kneel on the ground.
Then, Hongyuan Emperor pointed at her nose and angrily said, "Empress, how do you control your servants? You actually let Chang momo cause trouble behind your back. Tell me, does this matter have anything to do with you? "
The Empress quickly covered her face and cried, "No, Emperor. This matter was all done by Chang momo. It really has nothing to do with this concubine."
Chu Xuanchen saw that Hongyuan Emperor was so angry that he couldn't find a place to hide his face, so he said, "Your Majesty, since Mammy Chang has committed suicide for fear of punishment, I won't pursue this matter for the time being. This minister thinks that we should focus on the important matters. Right now, the public is angry and the people are using this matter to cause trouble. Emperor should quickly issue an edict to clarify this matter and calm the public's resentment. The flood in Jiangnan is becoming more and more serious. Right now, the most important matter is disaster relief. "
It was not internal strife.
Chu Xuanchen stood up for Hongyuan Emperor, but it was not because he really did not want to investigate this matter.
He was doing this for the people.
Right now, disaster relief was the most important matter. If everyone continued to fight, the people would be trapped in the abyss of suffering. This was not what he wanted.
When Grand Tutor Han heard this, he immediately nodded his head in praise, "His Highness The Emperor of Li is the victim, but he is so magnanimous. This is truly a blessing for my Chu. Emperor, since His Highness is not investigating this matter, I implore the Emperor to calm the public's anger as soon as possible and send an imperial envoy to Jiangnan to help with disaster relief. "
"That's right, Your Majesty. Disaster relief is the most urgent thing right now." The other ministers echoed.
When Hongyuan Emperor saw that Chu Xuanchen was so tactful, he coldly shouted at the empress, "Empress, although this matter wasn't done by you, Chang mama is one of your people, so you can't escape responsibility. Go back and reflect on your mistakes for me. While you're at it, think of a way to relieve the disaster. Don't only know how to scheme against each other and curry favor everywhere. "
"Yes, Your Majesty. Thank you for Your Majesty's mercy. Now that the people are in trouble, I will definitely take the lead in donating money and goods to help the people of Chu overcome this crisis and atone for Chang Mama's sins! "The Empress knelt on the ground and trembled as she spoke.
At this moment, someone had already dragged Chang Mama's body away.
When Aunt Bing saw this, she suddenly forced herself to sit up and kneeled on the ground, "Your Majesty, I'm sorry. This servant didn't want to poison The Princess of Li. It was Chang mama who deceived this servant. She said that this was the Empress's decree and this servant didn't dare to disobey. At that time, Chang mama said that if this servant didn't listen to her, the Empress would kill this servant's family. This servant was afraid that this servant's family would be in trouble, so this servant had no choice but to poison The Princess of Li. This servant knows that this servant has committed a crime that angers both man and god. This servant asks the Emperor to sentence this servant to death! "
"Your Majesty, Aunt Bing was also forced. This niece-in-law doesn't blame her." At this time, Yun Ruoyue suddenly said in a weak voice, "Ever since Aunt Bing came to The Emperor of Li's manor, she has always obeyed the Emperor's orders and did her best to take care of this niece-in-law without any complaints. This niece-in-law believes that she was also forced. This niece-in-law is willing to give her a chance to change. As long as she is willing to change, this niece-in-law is willing to accept her again. "
