Chapter 211: Leaving the Palace to Pray for Blessings
"*** was kidnapped?" Xu Minghuang frowned. Just as she was about to take some action against ***, he disappeared.
Her brother had been taken care of by a nanny, and she was absolutely sure that she would never do anything to that nanny.
But what if the other party is Bu Yan?
"Get out of the way, I want to see the Queen!"
Princess Changling's angry roar was heard from outside the door.
Soon Princess Changling came in aggressively, staring at Xu Minghuang with red eyes: "People outside say that my mother was implicated and kidnapped because of your cruelty, is that right?"
Xu Minghuang frowned.
"You used me to get close to the Queen Mother and sat on the throne of the Queen. You also threatened Brother Feng who was away to compromise by threatening the lives of the Xu family members, right?"
Princess Changling never imagined that she was just begging for Xu Minghuang to see the coffin, and things would get out of control afterwards.
Princess Changling regretted it so much that she even implicated her mother.
Xu Minghuang silently endured the accusations and insults from Princess Changling. She lowered her eyes, waiting for Princess Changling's anger to gradually subside, and then she comforted her: "Some things are not what you think, but I can assure you that no one dares to hurt you."
Xu Feng was protected by the ***. How could Bu Yan dare to attack the *** for Xu Feng's sake?
In terms of identity, *** is Bu Yan's biological aunt.
The two had no grudges against each other, and Bu Yan took away the thief just to scare him, not necessarily because he really wanted to take action.
"Snapped!"
Princess Changling raised her hand without saying a word and slapped Xu Minghuang hard on the face, angrily saying: "How can you be so heartless? That's my mother! How can I take a gamble?"
After being beaten, a trace of anger flashed across Xu Minghuang's face, but it disappeared in an instant. He caught a glimpse of a bright yellow figure appearing.
She stood up hurriedly: "I pay my respects to the Emperor."
The Northern Qi Emperor glanced at Xu Minghuang's face, then looked at Princess Changling who was crying like a tearful person. Not only did he not blame her, but he spoke gently: "Changling, I will definitely rescue your mother, you go back first."
Princess Changling threw herself into the arms of the Northern Qi Emperor and burst into tears like a wounded child. She was choking with sobs. The Northern Qi Emperor gently touched her head and said, "Don't cry. Go back and wash your face."
After letting the palace servants take Princess Changling away, the Northern Qi Emperor looked at Xu Minghuang and said, "I plan to have the Queen go to the Huguo Temple to pray for the Queen Mother for a month. We will set off today."
"What?" Xu Minghuang raised his head in disbelief.
pray?
Does she still have any choice after going to Huguo Temple?
"Your Majesty, are you going to give up on me?" Xu Minghuang knelt at the feet of the Northern Qi Emperor. "Bu Yan only took me away to scare me, it may not be true. Please don't be fooled and compromise."
"There are five people in the Cheng family, one dead, one injured, and three missing. Now they are being abducted in public. Do you know what the attitude of the civil and military officials and even the people is towards the queen?"
Xu Minghuang remained silent.
The Northern Qi emperor said word for word: "Everyone has the right to kill this evil queen who has brought disaster to the country!"
"Your Majesty?" Xu Minghuang's voice trembled: "What about you? Do you think so too?"
The Northern Qi Emperor suddenly raised his hand and lifted Xu Minghuang's chin: "The Queen is smart, but her method is too drastic and has caused a lot of backlash. I can't just let it go."
After losing her patience, she stood up and asked people to prepare. An hour later, she asked the Queen to leave the palace immediately to pray for the Queen Mother. Xu Minghuang had no chance to refuse.
She was forced by the palace servants to change into the clothes representing the queen, and was helped step by step out of Changchun Palace. She was then put on a sedan chair and carried out from the palace gate.
Xu Minghuang clenched the handle tightly with both hands and tried to stand up several times, but was reminded by the palace servants: "The emperor said that as long as the queen can hold on for a month, he will personally welcome you back to the palace, and the position of queen will still be yours."
This one sentence stopped Xu Minghuang from taking action.
She closed her eyes.
I heard the accusations and insults of the people.
"This is Empress Xu. She is so cruel and ruthless at such a young age that she even spared no one from her own clan."
"What an ungrateful person! If it weren't for her, *** wouldn't have been kidnapped. She's really ungrateful."
Someone threw a rotten egg towards the sedan chair, hitting her right on the body. The egg liquid slid down and gave off a foul smell.
Xu Minghuang opened his eyes, frowned and tried hard not to get angry.
"boom!"
Rotten eggs, pebbles, and rotten vegetable leaves were thrown at her.
"Stop! Stop now!" the guard drew his sword and shouted angrily.
The people were so frightened that they took a few steps back.
The insults continued.
Xu Minghuang endured the embarrassment, raised her head stubbornly and proudly and forced herself to hold back her tears. She looked at her confidant beside her and whispered a few words of advice.
"The Queen..."
"Just do as I command," she ordered.
The confidant nodded, not daring to disobey.
Finally they arrived at the Huguo Temple. Because of the Queen's arrival, the temple had already been decorated. She was the only one kneeling on the cushion, with her hands clasped together, looking at the Buddha statue, muttering something.
"Your Majesty, Madam Xu's coffin is empty." said the confidant.
Xu Minghuang suddenly opened his eyes.
"When I arrived, it had already been dug up, and the soil was all new. I estimated that it would not have taken more than half a day."
Someone had already taken Madam Xu's coffin away in advance, so she had one less card in her hand, and the last trump card was Concubine Yuexian.
However, Concubine Yuexian was buried in the imperial mausoleum. If she moved it, it would definitely cause dissatisfaction among the royal family.
"Search within a radius of dozens of miles to see if there are any people buried in places with mountains and water." Xu Minghuang said, as if he had thought of something, and gritted his teeth: "Send someone out of the province to visit the Xu family's ancestral tomb..."
...
Xu Feng, wearing a veil on his head, stood with Bu Yan. After reburying Xu, Xu Feng felt a little complicated: "When did she become so unscrupulous?"
Bu Yan sneered: "The imperial mausoleum cannot be moved, who do you think will be the next one?"
After thinking about it, Xu Feng's face changed slightly and he shook his head: "No, no, they are her biological parents."
If we move, wouldn't we be worse than animals?
"As long as we achieve our goal, why not?" Bu Yan pressed the hat on his head to cover his face, listened to the wind blowing around him, and whispered, "This is not a place to stay for long, let's go."
