Chapter 213: She was indeed a burden!

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation  Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The next morning.

Everyone saw that Yushi Wu, who hadn’t gone to court for more than a month, had arrived.

Only a handful managed to guess the purpose of Yushi Wu’s visit.

They had received news that Xiao Hanzheng had gone to Yushi Wu’s residence yesterday.

It looked like there would be a good show to watch today.

The third prince looked at Yushi Wu and had a bad premonition.

Sure enough, after the emperor had settled some matters, Yushi Wu spoke.

“Your Majesty, I have something to report.”

When the emperor saw Yushi Wu, his head hurt a little, but he still nodded. “What is it?”

He naturally knew that Xiao Hanzheng had gone to treat his illness.

Last night, he was still thinking that Xiao Hanzheng was really protective of his wife.

He was also very smart and knew how to do his networking.

Because of this, he thought more highly of Xiao Hanzheng and wanted to place him at a more important position.

Yushi Wu stood out and said, “I am looking into the third prince’s lack of discipline to allow the his consort and her servants to do evil things.”

Then, he recounted what happened yesterday.

“If this matter is made public, how will others look at this matter?”

“In the future, if anyone has anything great, would they dare to offer it?”

“And by doing so, they are also tarnishing the royal family’s reputation.

“Your Majesty, Please punish them harshly.”

The third prince was dragged into this matter, so he could only brace himself and come out to defend himself. “Your Majesty, I didn’t collaborate this with my consort.”

Yushi Wu said righteously, “The capital magistrate has already investigated this matter. It was the third imperial consort’s servant girl who personally went to bribe the local ruffians.”

“One of the servant girls in your house did something like this. Wasn’t it not caused by your lax command?

“You know yourself well whether your consort is aware of this matter. Don’t treat everyone as fools.”

Yushi Wu had once tried to admonish the late emperor.

Naturally, he would not be afraid of a prince now.

When he heard of this matter, he was angry.

A prince consort actually did such a heinous thing.

If a servant girl wasn’t given such an order, how would she dare to do such a thing?

Even if she did not return Xiao Hanzheng’s favour, she would still report it to the higher ups.

Not to mention, there was still a favour.

As soon as he finished speaking, the few old officials who usually did not speak much in the imperial court also began to discuss this matter.

Even if their servant girl did it, the third prince and his consort couldn’t escape the responsibility.

Everyone was smart enough not to pinpoint the third prince’s consort from doing so, but insist that she bear the blame.

After all, the capital magistrate’s people had already investigated and decided that it was the third imperial consort’s servant girl who couldn’t stand Shi Qingluo in the embroidery shop, so she bribed someone to do this without her madam’s consent.

She had already been detained and had taken the initiative to confess.

Of course, everyone knew that this was just a cloak for the royal family’s reputation.

If the third prince’s concubine hadn’t ordered this, they wouldn’t have believed it.

Apart from a few senior officials, Old Master Liang, Old Master XI, and Old Master Fei were finally not in the spotlight.

The focus was on the third prince and his concubine.

The younger generation had stood up for their friends, so the elders naturally couldn’t just stand and watch.

This caused many people in the imperial court to be stunned.

Obviously, they didn’t expect that all of these people would actually jump out and stand up for Shi Qingluo.

If anyone encountered such a matter in the past, it would usually be dealt with privately.

Only a fool would cause trouble in the imperial court.

They couldn’t help but raise their heads to look at the emperor’s expression.

Just as the emperor was about to speak, a young yushi stood out again.

“Your Majesty, I also have something to share.”

The emperor roughly knew who he wanted to do. “Proceed.”

This yushi had a very good personal relationship with Fei Yuzhe.

He knew all the things that Liang Youxiao went to investigate and could be considered to have acquiesced.

After all, there had to be clear evidence of the crime to punish the third imperial consort.

The yushi handed over the memorial written by him. “I wish to see the third prince consort privately abusing his status and framing an innocent woman…”

He took out all the evidence that Liang Youxiao had collected and Fei Yuzhe had given him.

“Here is the evidence. Your Majesty, Please punish him severely!”

After hearing what he said, all the adults present were stunned.

They really did not expect the third prince consort to actually do so many sinister and vicious things.

Master Fu and his son’s expressions were extremely unsightly.

They were even very nervous.

They hadn’t dealt with Xiao Hanzheng yet.

They didn’t expect that they would attack first.

After the emperor heard this, his expression sank. “I really didn’t expect that my daughter-in-law would actually do so many wrong things.

“How could she qualify as an imperial consort?

“The Fu clan isn’t worthy of being the imperial consort.

“She doesn’t have the qualifications to be the imperial consort anymore.

“Our imperial family has no examples of divorcing a wife, so from today onwards, the Fu clan will be demoted as concubines to serve the third prince.”

His gaze was sharp as he looked at his third son. “My son, you don’t have any objections, right?”

The third prince smiled bitterly as he stepped forward. “I don’t dare!”

He didn’t dare.

The emperor laughed coldly.

This son of his had really been charmed by that vicious woman.

He really did not see what was so good about such a vicious woman.

He could not help but think of the mother-in-law in the fiefdom.

Back then, when he was crowned the harem, it was also because of Zhang Yang’s malice that forced the mother and son in the main palace to give in.

As long as someone in the harem was favoured, it would not be long before they would have bad luck.

He did not have many royal brothers, and it was all thanks to that woman.

After she was favoured to give birth to a prince, there were others who got pregnant later on, and most of them lost their foetuses.

He had also almost died at the hands of that vicious woman twice.

The key point was that the late emperor seemed to be blind, and he still doted on her very much.

Therefore, when he saw his son like this, he became angry.

“From today onwards, leave the work in your hands to your second brother. You don’t have to go to court anymore. Wait until you have settled the matters in your residence first.

“I’ll carefully choose your main consort and side consort again.”

He shouldn’t have given Fu Wenzheng to his son just because his son came to ask for it.

And the second prince wanted to watch the show, but there was no way.

He looked at his two sons and felt bad.

It seemed like it was time to let the crown prince go to court.

Without waiting for the third prince to say anything else, the emperor stood up and said, “Court dismiss!”

It could be seen that he was very displeased with the third prince consort’s matter.

And the punishment he had given was even more shocking.

No one had expected it to be so serious.

Not only had the Fu clan been stripped of their position to be eligible as the imperial consort, they had even been demoted to become concubines.

Not to mention, the emperor’s move was quite vicious.

With the Fu clan’s proud and overbearing personality, how could they endure this injustice after being demoted to become concubines.

However, this was an imperial edict from the emperor.

No matter how wronged she was, she had to hold it in.

Furthermore, without her status as the third prince’s concubine, could she still act as a demon wantonly? It was obviously difficult.

Everyone could see that the emperor did it on purpose today. It seemed like he wanted to give Shi Qingluo an explanation.

One had to say that this had completely overturned their understanding.

It seemed like the emperor placed a lot of importance on that Shi Qingluo.

Otherwise, he would not have done this.

Moreover, looking at the people who had stood out in the court today, they would not believe that there was no trace of Xiao Hanzheng and Shi Qingluo in this matter.

They had underestimated this couple previously.

The third prince and his people were about to vomit blood.

They cursed Fu Wenzheng in their hearts.

She was indeed a burden!
