Chapter 597 She Is the Princess of Qin (5)
Empress Mo spoke in a shrill voice, not giving the emperor a chance to speak, because once the emperor said something serious like severe punishment, Chaoyang would definitely give up his life and not let her take risks, which she could not accept no matter what.
Concubine Jin sneered: "Why is the queen so excited? The queen knows better than anyone whether she did it or not. Besides, even if the queen did not commit a crime, the queen just committed the crime of disobeying the imperial edict and leaving the palace without permission. It is not me who falsely accuses you, right? The queen does not think that the emperor will not pursue it, right?"
"Whether the emperor punishes me or not is his business, how can you, a concubine, have a say?"
Empress Mo was not easy to mess with, and said coldly: "Is Concubine Jin eager for me to be punished by the emperor so that you can take his place? Or does Concubine Jin think that she can be the hen that crows at dawn and make decisions for the emperor?"
Concubine Jin was choked by Empress Mo She glared at the queen angrily, then grabbed the emperor's sleeve and said relentlessly: "Your Majesty, look at the queen. It was obviously she who disobeyed the imperial edict and committed an unforgivable crime, but she not only did not repent, but also ridiculed and embarrassed me. Your Majesty, you have to make a decision for me!"
"Okay!"
The emperor shook his sleeves and shook off Concubine Jin's pull. When he first came here, he listened to Concubine Jin's instigation and was angry, but after listening to the queen's words and seeing Chaoyang's pitiful appearance, the anger in his stomach had already gone by eight or nine points, and the remaining one or two points of small flames could not burn.
"Stop arguing. Pass on my order. The Queen left the palace without permission and violated the will of the emperor. The punishment is house arrest for one year, copying ten volumes of the Sutra of the Original Vow of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, and the salary of Yukun Palace will be reduced by half within one year. The servants of Yukun Palace failed to persuade their masters and indulged their masters to disobey the imperial order. Therefore, the eunuchs and palace maids in charge will be beaten to death, and the rest will be fined for one year and each will go to the Ministry of Punishment to receive thirty boards..."
"Your concubine obeys the order, thank you, Your Majesty!"
Empress Mo endured the great pain in her heart and bowed down.
Empress Ming of Jin looked at the Queen crawling on the ground and said coldly: "Queen, I will let it go this time because it is your first offense and we have been married for many years. If you disobey my order again next time, I will never let you go easily!"
"Yes, thank you for your forgiveness, Your Majesty!"
Empress Mo spoke humbly and bowed her head respectfully. No one saw the pair of hands under her sleeves that had pierced her palms.
Concubine Jin was very surprised to see that the emperor had let Queen Mo and her daughter go so easily, but the emperor had already left, so she had no choice but to follow him unwillingly...
"Bang----"
As soon as the emperor left, the queen immediately fell to the ground with a bang, as if her soul had been taken away.
"Mother----"
"Queen----"
Chaoyang and Luoxue rushed over in panic, helped her up, and kept calling out to her.
"Mother, how are you? Mother, please don't scare me!"
"Queen, you have to cheer up, the princess's future depends on you!"
Queen Mo moved her stiff eyes, and two lines of tears rolled down, "Shang Gong Bai... and, Li Zequan..."
Luoxue said: "Queen, don't be sad, Eunuch Li and Aunt Bai can die for the queen, they must die without regrets..."
At the first quarter of the morning
At the north gate of the capital, a group of sturdy Liaodan people, riding tall horses, drove out from the direction of the palace. This group of people wore bright Liaodan robes, their hair was loose, braided into many thin braids, and the braids were decorated with many colorful beads.
The one in the lead was tall and strong, like a god, with an awe-inspiring aura. He rode on a horse that was as black as ink, with innate arrogance and arrogance. He walked slowly with a gloomy face. His originally handsome face looked hideous and terrifying because of a long scar, which ruined his originally handsome appearance!
