Chapter 1001: I am pregnant (166 million votes plus additional content)
Concubine Chun was already feeling unwell tonight, and her face turned pale as paper with fright.
She bit her lips tightly, her eyes filled with worry.
Even though Concubine Chun was not from the Great Zhou, she understood that presenting a fake to the emperor at the palace banquet during the Mid-Autumn Festival was a crime of great disrespect, whether intentional or unintentional!
In fact, the consequences are serious!
How will His Majesty deal with His Royal Highness Prince Jin...
At this moment, Concubine Chun really wanted to rush forward and wait for His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin to be punished.
As long as His Royal Highness Prince Jin is fine, she will do anything, even if it means sacrificing her life.
It's just a pity... She will never be able to endure a beating from His Royal Highness Prince Jin again...
However, there was still a last bit of rationality that restrained Concubine Chun.
She knew that if she rushed forward at this time, not only would she fail to save His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin, but it would also make people suspect that she and His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin had a private affair...
Not only will their plans be ruined, but His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin will be even more guilty!
But... I don't know what Concubine Chun was thinking about, her eyes suddenly lit up, and her heart, which had been hanging in the air, felt a little relieved.
She will definitely not let anything happen to His Royal Highness Prince Jin tonight!
Concubine Wang had been paying attention to what was going on between Concubine Chun and Prince Jin, so she naturally noticed that the look in Concubine Chun's eyes when she looked at him just now was full of deep worry.
Although Concubine Chun quickly concealed it, it was still spotted by Concubine Wang.
Originally, Wangpin was just a little suspicious, wondering if Concubine Chun had entered the palace and was still concerned about His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin. It was not until this moment that she was completely sure that there was something fishy going on between Concubine Chun and His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin!
Now all she needs is solid evidence to bring Concubine Chun to an irretrievable fate!
The Prince of Jin has always had a reputation for virtue in the court and among the people, so of course there are many people who want to plead for him at this moment.
However, everyone understood that His Royal Highness Prince Jin had indeed committed a serious taboo tonight. If they wanted to plead for him, they had to consider themselves first.
If they anger His Majesty, His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin is His Majesty's brother, so maybe he will be fine in the end, but they will suffer...
For a moment, no one came out. Only Prince Jin was kneeling alone in the center of the hall, his handsome and gentle face full of fear.
In the end, Princess Yun'an showed reluctance, stood up, walked to the side of Prince Jin, knelt down, and said to Nangong Xuanyu on the dragon throne: "Brother Emperor, I know that my brother made a big mistake today, but I beg you to be lenient with him because he was deceived!"
Thinking of how good the mynah bird was to them, they would immediately have people send them anything delicious or fun. Princess Qingyang and Princess Wenshu also stood up, walked over and knelt.
"Yes, my royal brother."
"If it weren't for Concubine Chen's keen observation today, so many cabinet ministers and university scholars would not be able to tell the difference between the paintings of Master Yu Bai and Master Yu Mo, let alone the starling?"
"My dear brother, I did make a mistake, but it was an unintentional one. I beg you, my royal brother, to forgive me this time for the sake of the Mid-Autumn Festival today!"
The emperor knew very well that if he severely punished Prince Jin for what happened tonight, he would be seen as a cruel and abusive man in the eyes of the royal family and civil and military officials.
His purpose today was just to prevent King Jin from pretending to be loyal to him in front of so many people.
At this moment the goal has been achieved.
After this incident, the reputation of King Jin will surely plummet.
After all, what good reputation can a fool who can't even tell the difference between the original and the fake and yet presents it to the emperor on the Mid-Autumn Festival have?
The emperor looked down at the King of Jin and said coldly: "The King of Jin has committed a crime of great disrespect, but considering that it is his first offense and he was deceived, and that the three princesses have pleaded for him, I will punish him lightly today."
'Come here, drag the King of Jin out and give him thirty lashes, and confine him to his home for three months!'
Disrespect for the emperor is a capital crime!
Even though the Prince of Jin was of noble status, he could not avoid being driven back to his fiefdom, or even demoted from a prince to a county prince. Your Majesty was already showing great mercy by just beating him with a stick and confining him to his home.
It seems that Your Majesty still attaches great importance to the relationship between brothers and sisters!
At this point, the King of Jin could not refute it, and bowed to the bottom and said: "Your Majesty, thank you very much, brother!"
When Prince Jin bowed, he glanced at the stunningly beautiful Concubine Chen who was sitting on the high seat.
good! good!
He had no idea how many women he had beaten to death in his life, but this was the first time he had suffered at the hands of a woman.
He remembered Concubine Chen!
A woman like this... is challenging!
Princess Yun'an, Princess Qingyang, and Princess Wenshu all breathed a sigh of relief.
Ok!
The emperor did not investigate the crime of disrespect of the eight-year-old brother, but only gave him a light punishment. Otherwise, they would really be in a dilemma...
Seeing two strong guards holding Prince Jin on the left and right and about to take him away, Concubine Chun was extremely anxious!
The imperial guards are not there to sit around and do nothing. Even a rough man would not be able to withstand thirty lashes of the board, let alone someone as pampered as His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin?
Besides... His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin is not like her and Concubine Qi, who like to be beaten.
Concubine Chun really didn't want to watch His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin being punished.
Originally according to their plan, she shouldn't have revealed the news at this time. But now, Concubine Chun didn't care whether the time was right or not.
She held her stomach, stood up and said, "Wait!"
In an instant, everyone's eyes fell on Concubine Chun.
A meaningful smile appeared on Wang Ting's face.
how?
Could it be that Concubine Chun couldn't bear to see His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin being beaten with a stick, and finally couldn't sit still anymore?
She wanted to see how this foreign tribute could save His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin.
Your Majesty is suspicious to begin with. It would be fun if he started to doubt the relationship between Concubine Chun and His Royal Highness Prince Jin...
Nangong Xuanyu looked at Concubine Chun with a calm expression: "What does Concubine Chun want to say?"
At this moment, Concubine Chun took a few deep breaths to calm herself down.
She tried not to look at Prince Jin, and said to Nangong Xuanyu shyly, "Your Majesty, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and I have good news to tell you."
"My concubine, my concubine is pregnant..."
"It happens to be the Mid-Autumn Festival, and you are about to have a little prince. I'm afraid it's inappropriate to see blood, otherwise it will be unlucky."
"I hope Your Majesty will forgive Prince Jin this time for the sake of the royal heir in my belly."
Concubine Chun's words were like a stone that caused a thousand waves, and instantly became the focus of the hall!
The concubines in the harem stared at her intently.
Although your majesty already has three princes, it is still considered a small number of offspring in the royal family.
Concubine Chun is actually pregnant? !
She usually doesn't take other concubines seriously. If she gives birth to a prince, that would be disastrous!
The smile on Wangpin's face suddenly froze.
Even Shen Zhinian looked at Concubine Chun.
