The Queen Doesn't Want to Die
Chapter 137
Everyone in the courthouse looked on in shock at the newly arrived people. Pei Zhang Xi who often encountered people with cold or angry faces this time all they saw was a face that looked worried as he held the hand of his wife who grimaced in pain. The wound on Lu Jing Yu's lower abdomen had not been completely dry. So the wound still hurts if used to move.
Entering the palace, both the carriage and the horse had to stop. Passengers had to walk when they entered the palace. But due to Lu Jing yu's special condition, after getting off the carriage Pei Zhang Xi had already asked Mo Han to provide a stretcher for Lu Jing Yu.
However Lu Jing Yu also could not continue to be on the stretcher after entering the court yard. So he got down and walked to get to the court place.
"What are you guys doing here? Dare to interfere with the court process is a big mistake." Emperor Pei An Long looked at Pei ZHANG Xi and Lu Jing Yu with a warning look.
Currently Emperor Pei An Long was still very angry as he felt cheated by Zhu Man Xie. Especially since the thought of Zhu Man Xie's false pregnancy Emperor Pei An Long made a decision that he would regret all his life. That was when he started to be favoritism and turned a blind eye to the injustice that Pei Zhang Xi and Lu Jing Yu had been experiencing. The couple must have hated him so much by now.
"Please forgive us the Emperor's father." Lu Jing Yu had already guessed that Pei An Long's welcome was definitely not far from this. The middle-aged man would definitely hinder them. But he had thought about it all day yesterday and was determined to do it. So he tried to kneel aided by Pei Zhang Xi. Of course he didn't really want to kneel because Lu Jing Yu was so afraid of pain. He was just pretending to assuage Emperor Pei An Long's anger.
"Strike to stand! What are you kneeling for?!" Shouted Pei An Long in panic. With the current condition of Lu Jing Yu who had a wound on her lower abdomen would probably reopen the wound that had not healed. So he can't kneel.
Lu Jing Yu smiled at the corner of her mouth. Yet it looked like it was grimacing in pain. So that makes everyone who sees it feel worried. Lu Jing Yu is still the only imperial daughter-in-law to have given birth to a son. Moreover, her title was one level higher than that of an ordinary King empress. Not to mention that Pei Zhang Xi's criteria were the most fulfilling among the other princes. It was most likely that Lu Jing Yu was the future crown princess whose body would be extremely precious.
"Dad Emperor, please forgive us if we interfere with the court's proceedings. But it could be said that we were victims who naturally had an interest in coming." Lu Jing Yu immediately spoke and wasted no time. He sighed as he looked at Pei Qin Yang who was still kneeling in his place. When the look in his eyes met Zhu Man Xie, his eyes found Zhu Man Xie's eyes filled with hatred. However Lu Jing Yu did not reply with the same gaze but rather looked at Zhu Man Xie with a slice. He always felt he had no problem with the female protagonist in the original novel he read, but somehow the woman was always looking for trouble with him.
"Since you feel this matter has something to do with you, what do you want now?" Pei An Long looked at Lu Jing Yu and Pei Zhang Xi with a threatening look. But Lu Jing Yu felt that the gaze of the eyes was not simple. Although Emperor Pei An Long's eyes looked sharp, Lu Jing Yu felt that the sharp gaze was merely a disguise to cover up the feelings felt by Emperor Pei An Long.
"We are a family basically. A family can be compared to a human body. If one part of the body is injured, the other part of the body will also feel the impact. That's why there won't be a story of a time between body parts going to hurt each other. So too with family. Although Empress Yuan's actions were indeed inexcusable and so hurtful to me and my son, but I'm sure all of that could have happened not out of will." Lu Jing Yu glanced at Zhu Man Xie as he said his last sentence.
"As we know, the pregnancy of an empress will always be a hope for the royal family. Perhaps because Empress Yuan did not want to make the royal family hurt any deeper let alone consider the health condition of the queen mother in recent months, Empress Yuan was only forced to hide the facts." Lu Jing Yu continued calmly. Hearing Lu Jing Yu's remark, everyone in the courtyard of the court hall began to whisper. They guessed what Lu Jing Yu wanted to do in the end. Could it be that Lu Jing Yu asked the Emperor to relinquish the residence of the Yuan king and Zhu Man Xie?
Lu Jing Yu glanced at everyone before calmly continuing while slightly lowering her head. "So beg the Emperor's father to reconsider the appropriate punishment."
"It could have been like that. But whatever the reason, tricking the Emperor even more by using the royal lineage was a huge mistake."
"Both Yuan Kings have hidden this matter and allowed Empress Yuan to make a mistake, therefore King Yuan along with everyone in the Yuan King's residence will receive a whip sentence of twenty blows each."
"Thank you for the mercy of His Majesty the Emperor." Everyone bowed their bodies.
"Then, King Yuan proved to be a failure in arranging his residence. Unsuccessfully educating his empress, after today his title as king will be removed and become a commoner so that it automatically also loses the qualifications to compete with the other kings to become crown prince."
"Hamba acknowledged the mistake and accepted the punishment His Majesty the Emperor gave. Thank you Your Majesty the Emperor for being merciful." Pei Qin Yang knelt down once more. Although the punishment he received was indeed very severe, he was still grateful that everyone in his residence had at least survived the death penalty. As for losing the qualifications of being crown prince, Pei Qin Yang felt grateful instead. In addition because it was from the beginning he did want the guitar position, so he hoped to restore Zhu Man Xie who was in the past.
"As for Empress Yuan, the evil hid the facts about the miscarriage, spreading false pregnancy news. Coupled with the sinister plot to trap Empress Rui by making Empress Rui a scapegoat for her mistake, it was impossible to just forget this mistake. For this reason she will be relegated from the title of Empress to an ordinary concubine and tonight will also be sent to the monastery of Bu Wang to devote himself there for one year. During that time, no one was allowed to visit him or get in touch with the outside world."
Zhu Man Xie raised his face in disbelief. It was fine if Pei Qin Yang was eventually demoted and was unfit to follow the plantation position. He could still do something to restore his glory. But if he had to be inside an isolated monastery on a mountain for a year, how could he turn the situation around?
