Chapter 775 Do you have any unfulfilled wishes?
"I will quietly wait in Changchun Palace for the day when the truth comes out and my grievances are cleared."
"Your Majesty, I bid you farewell!"
After she finished speaking, Concubine Zhuang stood up with Ruoli's support and walked out slowly.
This scene can't help but remind people of the time when Concubine Zhuang was wrongly accused of poisoning Concubine Liu at a palace banquet and was confined by the emperor. She had the same reaction.
Later it was found out that it was Xiao Yueying who did it, and Concubine Zhuang was indeed wrongly accused.
Seeing the grievance on Concubine Zhuang's face and her frank appearance, even the thoughts of several people began to waver...
Could it be that this time, Concubine Zhuang was also wronged? Otherwise, how could she poison someone to death without any guilty look on her face?
Of course, they have little influence and no matter how they think, they cannot change the overall situation. What is important is the emperor's thoughts.
However, there was no extra expression on Nangong Xuanyu's face, as if Concubine Zhuang's words had no effect on her.
Concubine Hao stared at Concubine Zhuang's blurry back, her eyes full of unwillingness!
why? !
She thought that Concubine Zhuang had acted on her own without telling His Majesty and had poisoned the Fifth Prince's biological mother. His Majesty would be furious when he found out. Even if he didn't sentence Concubine Zhuang to death, he would demote her to a commoner and banish her to the cold palace.
Why did His Majesty only take back Concubine Zhuang's power to assist the six palaces and demoted her to a lower level? !
Compared to what Concubine Zhuang did, isn't this punishment too light...
Haha...haha...she overestimated her importance in His Majesty's heart.
There are so many beautiful women in the harem. In addition to the ones who are offered as usual, a large number of new ones enter the palace every three years.
What is a concubine Hao?
Seeing Concubine Hao's unwilling look, Shen Zhinian shook his head in his heart.
She was not surprised by this result.
To put it bluntly, Concubine Zhuang's choice to protect the heir to the throne was probably exactly what Nangong Xuanyu wanted. How could he blame Concubine Zhuang for this? This man was angry because Concubine Zhuang dared to hide his actions from him and poisoned the concubines.
Moreover, Master Zhuang was Nangong Xuanyu's mentor and was very kind to him in imparting knowledge to him.
The former dynasty is closely related to the harem. Although Master Zhuang has retired, his disciples are spread all over the court and the country, and the Zhuang family has a great influence among the civil servants.
In addition, the young emperor was eager to defeat the Xiongnu. The Zhuang family and its ministers were all pro-war factions, and Nangong Xuanyu could not do without their support.
At this time, how could he punish Concubine Zhuang too harshly?
If it weren't for the fact that Concubine Zhuang "poisoned" Concubine Hao, which caused such a big fuss, Nangong Xuanyu would have been unable to resolve the matter without punishing her. I'm afraid she wouldn't even be demoted, and would be confined to her house at most.
This result has exceeded Shen Zhinian's expectations.
Moreover, Shen Zhinian knew from the beginning that with Concubine Zhuang's family background and her own qualifications, Nangong Xuanyu would never execute her easily.
Her purpose this time was only to expose Concubine Zhuang's hypocritical true face in front of the emperor and everyone in the harem!
The emperor believed that Concubine Zhuang was a vicious woman with a hypocritical heart, so there was no possibility for Concubine Zhuang to ascend to the throne.
For Shen Zhinian, she has one less opponent!
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
Concubine Hao was already barely breathing.
Feeling that her life was about to come to an end, Hao Bin no longer cared whether she was unwilling or not.
She believed that with Concubine Chen around, Concubine Zhuang would surely commit many evil deeds and eventually perish!
Her fifth prince...
If she doesn't arrange the future of the Fifth Prince, she will die with regret...
Nangong Xuanyu also realized that Concubine Hao was on her deathbed.
No matter what, she was the head of the imperial palace and the biological mother of the fifth prince. Concubine Zhuang poisoned her and should not have received such a light punishment.
But...national affairs are important.
The emperor felt guilty towards Concubine Hao. He sat beside the bed, held her dry hand, and said solemnly, "I am here."
"Do you have any unfulfilled wishes? I will grant you all!"
Concubine Hao looked towards the side hall.
The fifth prince whom she gave birth to with her life, she has not even taken a look at him yet...
Concubine Hao really wanted to say that she wanted to see the Fifth Prince, her blood-related child...
She wanted to tell the Fifth Prince that she was sorry for him.
If it weren't for her mother's weak body, he wouldn't have been born unable to live past the age of 20...
She wanted the Fifth Prince to grow up and not blame her or hate her...
Because... Mother really loves him very much...
But in the end, Concubine Hao said nothing.
Because He Yuanpan had told her before that the Fifth Prince was too weak, and the more contact he had with the outside world before his full moon, the more dangerous it would be.
She, the useless mother, failed to give the Fifth Prince a healthy body. She could no longer drag him down because of her own selfishness...
"Your Majesty, I have two more requests..."
Concubine Hao tightly grasped Nangong Xuanyu's hand and said breathlessly, "I hope...I hope Your Majesty will agree..."
Nangong Xuanyu's voice was as dull as his mood: "You say."
Haopin said weakly: "First... First, I want to name the fifth prince... Name him 'Nangong Sui'an', and wish him long life and good health... "
According to the rules of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the emperor would give a name to the royal heir when he was one month old.
Nangong Xuanyu nodded at this time: "I promise you!"
"The fifth prince will be named Nangong Sui'an. He will be safe and sound every year!"
Concubine Hao slowly revealed a smile: "Thank... Thank you, Your Majesty..."
"Your Majesty once said... He once said that I should choose a title that I like... I, I don't want a title. I just want to... I just want to entrust Sui'an to Concubine Kang..."
"Lady Kang has a calm personality and does not seek to compete with others. I believe...I believe she will be able to take good care of Sui'an..."
Hearing this, the faces of many palace concubines changed!
They were just dreaming that Concubine Zhuang had lost her qualifications, and they didn't know who His Majesty would entrust the fifth prince to raise after Concubine Hao passed away.
Maybe... maybe such a good thing will happen to me!
Why did Concubine Hao designate Concubine Kang?
I've never heard of any relationship between them in the past!
Concubine Kang was already crying uncontrollably.
Xue Fei's eyes also turned red.
Every promotion to the next level in the harem of the Great Zhou Dynasty had strict rules. Previously, the promotion of Wangpin to the position of the head of the first palace to raise the third prince was an exception. And it was because the Dingguo Mansion took out something that satisfied the emperor and traded with him.
There is no order without rules, and Nangong Xuanyu never thought of making an exception.
Even though Concubine Liang became Concubine Zhuang, he just wanted Concubine Xue to raise the fifth prince.
Anyway, she has already raised the second princess, so it wouldn't be a big deal to raise one more child.
I never thought... Concubine Hao would actually entrust the fifth prince to Concubine Kang.
Under normal circumstances, the emperor would naturally not agree.
But Concubine Hao died unjustly and did not even want a title. He also promised to fulfill her wish.
