Chapter 46 Princess Langhuan (Please collect and read)
"Your Majesty! Spare my life! Your Majesty!"

"Her Majesty, Her Majesty, spare my life. Please release my family. Please..."

"Empress Dowager, Empress Dowager..."

The miserable screams of Fangcao and Wang Po were still echoing, but they were still dragged out mercilessly by the Jinyiwei.

Soon, there was a series of 'bang bang bang' sounds coming from outside.

Speaking of death penalty, besides lingchi, beating to death is the most brutal one.

A perfectly healthy person was hit to death by a wooden stick, and no one could resist it.

It's not like beheading, where it's gone once you close your eyes.

Inside the Queen's bedroom, everyone was silent as a mouse, not daring to breathe.

The four babies seemed to be frightened by the tense atmosphere and started crying immediately.

“Wow, wow, wow…”

The queen reacted and said quickly: "Child, bring my child here quickly..."

The nanny holding the queen's daughter quickly took two steps and handed her daughter to the queen.

"Woo woo woo, my child, my child wow..."

The Queen Mother at the side could not help but say: "Lin'er, don't be sad, it's good that the child is back."

"emperor."

Then, she said to Zheng Yi: "Fang Cao is an old lady in the palace after all. She has taken care of me and the queen for more than 20 years. She has worked hard and made great contributions."

"Although he has committed a capital crime, his family is innocent. I hope the emperor can show mercy and spare Fangcao's family..."

"Oh? How is the Queen Mother going to deal with this?"

"How about exiling them to Nanyue County like Wang Po's family?"

"Ah……"

Zheng Yi sneered and said, "Fang Cao is suspected of murdering the heir to the throne. Does the Queen Mother really want to plead for her?"

"If I hadn't noticed it today, the royal heir would have been replaced long ago!"

"This boy is extremely evil, how can we let him go?"

"If others, for their own selfish interests, plot to murder the heir to the throne, or even go further, they will think that even if they fail, they will only be exiled."

"He used his own life to exchange for a hundred years of wealth and safety for his family, and took risks to commit some treasonous acts."

"Mother, do you really want to do this?"

"This……"

The Queen Mother's face was also very unpleasant, and she could only say: "Everything is up to the Emperor."

"Cheng En."

"The servant is here."

"Find out the identities of those three pregnant women and take them all away!"

"promise!"

Soon, all the outsiders in the bedroom left, leaving only the Queen Mother, the Empress, Zheng Yi, and the child in her arms.

Zheng Yi said bluntly: "Mother, I don't want to delve into this matter any further. Let's stop here."

"The harem cannot be in chaos."

"The Ai family knows."

The Queen Mother said, "After returning, I will go to Yuhua Pavilion to worship Buddha. I will not leave the pavilion unless it is a major event."

"So good."

Zheng Yi nodded and said, "Lin'er, you just gave birth, take more rest."

"This matter has nothing to do with you, don't take it to heart."

Lu Lin'er was anxious and said quickly: "Your Majesty, you haven't named our daughter yet."

"Name it..."

Zheng Yi said: "Let's call her Yuhuan, Zheng Yuhuan. Grant her the title: Princess Langhuan."

"Princess Langhuan?"

The queen was surprised and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"And Lin'er, you just gave birth and need to rest. Let Concubine Duan take care of the affairs of the six palaces."

Without waiting for her to speak, Zheng Yi said, "Okay, Lin'er, you should have a good rest. I have something important to do."

After saying this, he turned and left without giving the two women a chance to speak.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

"emperor……"

Lu Lin'er lay on the bed, looking at Zheng Yi's leaving back, full of grief.

"Wuwuwu, Your Majesty, this has nothing to do with me, it really has nothing to do with me..."

The Queen Mother patted her shoulder and said, "Hey, Lin'er, stop shouting. I was just a little anxious this time. Alas..." "Aunt, why? Why?"

Lu Lin'er said with red eyes: "Your Majesty is still young. Since he and I have a daughter, if we give us some time, we will definitely have a prince. Why are you so anxious?"

The Queen Mother shook her head and said, "Isn't it for you, for the Lu family?"

"You know, the emperor is now obsessed with cultivating immortals, and has even set up an institution called the 'Cabinet' to manage state affairs."

"Although your father was selected into the cabinet, he was only the second assistant, not the first assistant. The first assistant was Xu Mujun!"

"Now Xu Mujun has gained power by suppressing Yang Ni's rebellion. If this continues, my Lu family will inevitably come into conflict with him."

"Even your position as queen may be taken away by that Concubine Duan!"

The Queen Mother said cautiously: "It would be fine if you gave birth to a prince, but it's a pity that it's a princess. If Concubine Duan gave birth to a prince, His Majesty would want to make him the crown prince..."

"No, no."

Lu Lin'er quickly shook her head and said, "Brother Emperor still loves me. Aunt, look at the title she gave Huan'er, Princess Langhuan, that's..."

Having said this, Lu Lin'er suddenly stopped.

"Zheng Yuhuan, Huan'er, Princess Langhuan?"

"How, how could it be..."

The Queen Mother then asked, "Have you just realized it?"

"Zheng Yuhuan, Huan'er, Princess Langhuan."

"Your Majesty named your eldest daughter 'Han', exactly like the daughter of the traitor, Concubine Yang Huan, just to warn you and me."

"And His Majesty has taken back your power as Prime Minister of the Six Palaces and handed it over to Concubine Duan. Are you still not awake?"

The Queen Mother took a long breath and said, "Lin'er, your aunt is going to Yuhua Pavilion to meditate. I will have fewer opportunities to help you in the future."

"Fortunately, Aunt Fangcao handled today's incident alone. Unfortunately, the emperor did not give me the opportunity to protect Fangcao's family."

"From now on, the people around me will not consider me in everything."

"From now on, I can only rely on you for this huge palace."

The queen said with a sad face: "Mother, Lin, Lin'er knows..."

On the way back to the palace, Liu Chengen walked up quickly.

"Your Majesty, the identities of the three pregnant women have been found out."

"Oh? What are their identities?"

"Two of them were peasant women from the mountain villages near the capital. They were taken to the palace in the dark of night a month ago. They had no idea what had happened and thought they were kidnapped by criminals."

Liu Chengen said: "But the third person is a girl from a branch of the Lu family, and she has already been taken into the palace."

"Which pregnant woman gave birth to that boy?"

"Lu family..."

"The Lu family is very good, Queen Mother!"

Zheng Yi murmured, "The Queen Mother must be the one in charge of this matter. The Queen may have vaguely known about it. As for Lu Xiangqing..."

The second assistant of the cabinet was Lu Xiangqing.

The image of Lu Xiangqing, a thin old man, appeared in Zheng Yi's mind.

He has already reached the highest position in the country, and with Xu Mujun's army under his control, he would not do anything risky.

Instead it was the Queen Mother.

As a woman, what she is best at is these harem conspiracies.

But she was the queen mother, and she could not be convicted unless she had committed a serious crime.

unless……

Zheng Yi was thinking about this when he saw a young eunuch running towards him in a hurry.

"stop!"

Liu Chengen stepped in front of Zheng Yi and said, "Your Majesty is here. How can you be so flustered?"

The young eunuch knelt on the ground with a thump and said quickly: "Eunuch Liu, you said before that if there is any news about Master Shen Xing, you should be the first to report it. I will..."

"Shen Xing is back?"

Zheng Yi asked in surprise: "Where is it?"

"Your Majesty, Lord Shen Xing has indeed returned and is now waiting to be summoned outside the Zhonghe Hall!"

"Quickly send a message to Shen Xing!"

Zheng Yi said with satisfaction: "You did a great job. What's your name?"

"My servant, Little Guizi!"

"From now on, you will wait for your orders in Qiankun Palace."

“Yes~!”
