Chapter 175 The Skinny Horse's Second Daughter 47
The third princess and Fang Qingyu walked out of Qifeng Palace together.
On the way, the third princess asked curiously, "Brother Crown Prince, today is not the day to pay respects, why do you have the time to come to Qifeng Palace?"
Fang Qingyu looked a little worried.
But facing my favorite sister.
He still forced a smile towards the third princess.
"After all, I am the eldest son of the emperor. Now Prime Minister Wei wants to ask His Majesty to grant me a marriage for Wei Wan. I am afraid that my father will randomly arrange a marriage for me at that time."
The third princess smiled slyly and said, "Brother, is this for Ningning?"
"In fact, I have already guessed it. Brother has always liked Ningning, but Ningning liked Fang Cheyun at the beginning."
"Brother, if I hadn't helped you stop Ningning from thinking about Fang Cheyun, I'm afraid that the emperor would have granted Fang Cheyun and Ningning a marriage."
Looking at the third princess, she looked like she was saying, "Please praise me."
Fang Qingyu still hasn't reacted yet.
I really can't figure out what the other person is talking about.
"What did you do?"
The third princess put her hands on her hips, looking very proud.
"I sent someone out of the palace to tell Wei Wan that Fang Cheyun fell in love with Zhou An Ning, and that she might not be able to be the prince's consort. The duck in her mouth is about to fly away."
"Based on Wei Wan's personality, she would definitely not be able to accept Fang Cheyun being robbed. Not long after, she went to Ning Ning to explain everything. Now Ning Ning is not in a good mood towards Fang Cheyun."
"I have been with Ningning for such a long time, and I know her temper very well. Fang Cheyun wants to deceive Ningning. With the help of Prime Minister Wei, he still wants the military power of the Zhou family. It's just a dream."
Fang Qingyu didn't expect that this was the work of the third princess.
He said with a complicated expression, "Today I came to find my mother for my own marriage. I just wanted her to ask my father to grant me marriage, but I didn't expect her to refuse."
Seeing Fang Qingyu looking a little depressed, the third princess stepped forward, stood on tiptoe and patted his shoulder.
"Don't worry, brother. Mother is not a fool. What she said to you today is just to make you work hard on your own, instead of waiting for others to fight for you like when you were a child."
The third princess obviously understood the queen's meaning better than Fang Qingyu.
A prince who has never experienced the ups and downs of life.
Fang Qingyu was not angry because of what the third princess said.
If it were the proud Fang Qingyu of the past, he would definitely choose to argue with the third princess.
He believed that he was the legitimate son of the Empress and therefore should be the Crown Prince.
The third princess saw that Fang Qingyu didn't say anything.
I only heard her continue to comfort him, "Brother, don't worry, I am absolutely on your side and will definitely help you find a sister-in-law."
Just as the two were about to part, Nanny Zhu came stumbling over.
"Princess, Prince, something bad has happened..."
Because Nanny Zhu was old, she was out of breath after running all the way.
But on weekdays, Nanny Zhu attaches great importance to rules and rarely shows such inappropriate behavior.
Caixia hurried forward to support Nanny Zhu.
"Don't be anxious, Mammy. But what happened? Take your time."
Nanny Zhu recovered and knelt down immediately.
"Just now, I accompanied the Queen to see His Majesty. Someone falsely accused the Queen of murdering Imperial Noble Consort Yuanxian. His Majesty was furious and wanted to depose Her Majesty from the position of Queen."
"What did you say?"
The third princess was horrified and asked, "What exactly is going on? Who would bring up what happened back then for no reason? Why did my father believe it so easily when I just falsely accused my mother?"
"How long has it been? How could something like this happen?"
Seeing that the third princess' words and actions were too inappropriate.
At this time, Fang Qingyu stepped forward and pressed the third princess's shoulders to comfort her.
"Don't worry, let Madam Zhu finish what she has to say and find out what happened so that we can think of a plan in advance."
It has been more than ten years since Imperial Noble Consort Yuanxian died.
Why did Emperor Wen suddenly start bringing up old issues?
The third princess and Fang Qingyu didn't think the queen did nothing.
But now we have to find a way to prove that the queen did nothing.
The fact that Emperor Wen wanted to depose the empress showed that he was sure that she was guilty.
Faced with Fang Qingyu's kind words of comfort.
The third princess still seemed extremely flustered.
Normally, the third princess behaves very rationally in other matters.
But I only heard that something happened to the queen.
She was visibly worried.
The queen gave all her love to the third princess.
Nanny Zhu continued to speak to the two of them, "The Empress was summoned to the Yangxin Palace just now. I thought it was no big deal, but who would have thought that Concubine Shu would actually accuse the Empress of killing Imperial Noble Concubine Yuanxian."
"They also said that it was the Queen who drugged Imperial Noble Consort Yuanxian, which caused the Second Prince born to Imperial Noble Consort Yuanxian to be weak since childhood."
"Because Imperial Noble Consort Yuanxian was not feeling well during her pregnancy, she barely gave birth to the second prince, which led to postpartum disorders. That’s why she passed away at such a young age."
I didn't expect that Concubine Shu would be the witness?
You must know that Concubine Shu always follows the Queen's lead.
Who could have thought that she would betray the Queen.
"If it was Concubine Shu who pointed out my mother, is there any room for this matter to turn around?"
The third princess' legs went weak and she almost couldn't stand.
Killing a concubine is a serious crime.
If the queen is deposed.
The third princess and Fang Qingyu will be implicated.
Besides, the queen is such a proud person.
How could she bear to become a deposed queen and spend the rest of her life waiting to die in the cold palace?
And Fang Qingyu’s position as the crown prince is probably no longer secure.
Fang Qingyu supported the third princess and asked, "Are you okay?"
"I am fine."
The third princess calmed down and looked at Fang Qingyu and said, "Our top priority is to find a way to save our mother. We must not let her be deposed."
"Mammy, please get up first. Caixia, help Mammy get up first. Don't let Mammy hurt her knees by kneeling."
"Yes."
Aunt Zhu looks much older.
"Your Majesty has been missing Imperial Noble Consort Yuanxian for many years. Now that something like this has happened, how can Your Majesty not blame Her Majesty?"
"Just now, I heard His Majesty was furious and yelled that he wanted to depose Your Majesty from the position of Queen."
"Your Highness, Princess, you must think of a solution. The Queen is in a very passive situation now, and I'm afraid she won't be able to help herself out for the time being."
This was an attack that came without any warning.
No one expected that Concubine Shu would betray the Queen.
The Third Princess stared at Nanny Zhu and asked in a low voice, "Let me ask you, did the Queen Mother really attack Imperial Noble Consort Yuanxian?"
These are all things of the previous generation.
The third princess was not born yet at that time.
She had never even met Imperial Noble Consort Yuanxian.
Naturally, I don't know about the affairs of Imperial Noble Consort Yuanxian.
Nanny Zhu lowered her voice and replied, "Even if the queen did it, she definitely didn't poison it. The queen tampered with the food at the beginning."
"Noble Consort Yuanxian died of depression. Ever since she gave birth to the second prince, she was depressed and unhappy all day long. Not long after, she fell seriously ill and passed away."
The Queen did take action against Imperial Noble Consort Yuanxian back then.
But the queen is not a fool.
Even if she wanted to take action, she would definitely not poison him.
At that time, Imperial Noble Consort Yuanxian was pregnant. Since she was born a palace maid and had worked in the laundry department before, she was often exposed to cold water, which caused her health to be poor.
This is due to insufficient qi and blood during pregnancy, as well as very severe morning sickness.
The baby vomits everything he sees and cannot eat all day. The fetus is small.
The queen asked the imperial physician to add something to her pregnancy-preserving medicine.
There's nothing bad about this stuff.
Just add some extremely appetizing medicine.
She also adjusted the food for Imperial Noble Consort Yuanxian to the best.
It wasn't long before Imperial Noble Consort Yuanxian could no longer control her mouth.
I gained a lot of weight from overeating every day.
The morning sickness has gone and my appetite has improved.
She just thought that her morning sickness was gone.
When you are pregnant, you naturally need to eat more nutritious food.
No one expected that Imperial Noble Consort Yuanxian had fallen into the trap.
She wasn't so fat that she looked unbearable, but after gaining weight she lost her former beauty.
There are many lines on the body and even many spots on the face.
My belly became flat after giving birth.
But fat actually grew.
Imperial Noble Consort Yuanxian had no family background.
She had no one to rely on in the backyard, and the only thing she could rely on was her stunning beauty.
Now even her beauty and figure are gone.
Low self-esteem can really kill people.
The Queen did take action against Imperial Noble Consort Yuanxian.
If I gave birth to a princess.
She would never allow Consort Yuanxian to give birth to a son out of wedlock.
But when the queen gave birth to the eldest son.
Then the child in Consort Yuanxian's belly would not be a threat to the Queen, who already had a legitimate eldest son.
A child born weak.
How can he be compared with his own healthy legitimate son?
Listen to Nanny Zhu telling stories of the past.
The third princess frowned and confirmed it again.
"No one else knows about this? Are you sure that no one else will know about it?"
"I can confirm it."
Nanny Zhu gritted her teeth.
"No one knows what happened back then, not to mention that it has been more than ten years. But now Concubine Shu has betrayed the Empress and even found the so-called witness evidence from back then."
"Your Majesty has become suspicious of the Queen, and the situation is very unfavorable to the Queen."
This is a plot against the Queen.
Regardless of whether the witness evidence is true or not.
As long as Emperor Wen believed it.
The person behind the scenes achieved his goal.
"No, I'm going to find my father now and make sure he wakes up."
Fang Qingyu grabbed the impulsive Third Princess and said, "Don't be anxious. Going to beg for mercy now will only make Father even angrier."
"So what should we do now? Are we going to watch our mother being abandoned?"
The third princess pushed Fang Qingyu away reluctantly.
Suddenly the third princess remembered something.
She grabbed Fang Qingyu and asked, "Have you heard about the marriage of the princess of Tianlang Country?"
This matter has spread to the capital.
The Tianlang Kingdom did propose a marriage alliance.
But Emperor Wen refused.
The marriage partner that the Tianlang Kingdom wants to marry is the legitimate princess.
Emperor Wen's only legitimate princess was the Third Princess.
You should know that none of Emperor Wen's other princesses were married off.
Let your most beloved daughter marry?
Emperor Wen naturally didn't want to do that.
But he openly rejected the Tianlang Kingdom's intention to make friends.
This will only make the Tianlang Kingdom angry and send troops.
Fang Qingyu said excitedly, "What do you mean? Are you crazy? The Tianlang Nation originated from the grassland area."
"Your living habits are completely different from ours. Are you trying to agree to the marriage and let the emperor let the queen mother go?"
The third princess lowered her eyes and spoke in a cold voice.
"If I can use my own marriage to save my mother from being deposed, I am willing to marry her."
"Changle..."
"elder brother!"
