PNB Chapter 195 Personal Complaint
Chapter 195 Personal Complaint
Royal Palace
Lord Ning cried and complained that Lord Bo had brought people into the Ning family: "Your Majesty, please help me."
The Emperor of Northern Qi had a gloomy expression. He had taken a fancy to Lord Ning's ability to get things done, but right after he was promoted to the position, Lord Bo rushed to his house and slapped him in the face. This was not a slap to the Ning family, but to him!
"Summon Lord Bo into the palace." said the Emperor of Northern Qi.
The eunuch stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, Master Bo may have gone insane. I heard that Master Bo's two children died of the plague yesterday."
...
Concubine Xu waited for two hours but Lord Bo did not come to the palace to apologize. Her eyelids twitched and she raised her hand to touch her eyelids.
She was stunned until she heard that Lord Bo went to the Ning family and beat Lord Ning up.
"I have made it very clear that he should come to the palace to apologize. Why did he go to the Ning family?"
The maid said, "I heard that it was Master Bo who asked the Ning family to bring out the family tree to check Ning Xianyun's background, and as a result, Master Ning went to the palace to file a complaint in anger."
"Idiot!" Concubine Xu was very angry.
She had spent so much effort to leave the palace. She had made it very clear that as long as the Bo family came to the palace to apologize and stop the loss in time, the Emperor of Northern Qi would not be able to pursue the matter for the time being and would definitely send people to intercept and track down Lu Jingning and Bu Yan.
As time passed, Concubine Xu became more and more anxious.
"These idiots!"
Concubine Xu paced back and forth in the palace anxiously.
"Your Majesty, will Lord Bo really be able to find out anything through interrogation?" asked the palace maid.
Concubine Xu sneered: "The person is real, the name and appearance are real, how can we interrogate him to find out anything? If he is really guilty, can the Ning family come to the palace to file a complaint?"
At this time, the eunuch at the door came to pass on a message; "My Lady, the Emperor has just summoned Master Bo to the palace. The son and daughter of the Bo family have died, and the mansion has even held a funeral."
After hearing this, Concubine Xu immediately realized that the Bo family was secretly disobeying her and had not listened to her words at all.
Bo Yuanchuan and Bo Yan'er also faked their deaths and took advantage of the chaos to leave Kyoto.
Concubine Xu rubbed her brows, knowing that she could not wait any longer, and immediately went to the only way to enter the palace to wait.
After hurrying for a long time, I finally saw Lord Bo.
"Thank you for planning all this, Your Majesty." Lord Bo smiled coldly: "You are putting your own body first, I admire you!"
After hearing this, Concubine Xu almost wanted to vomit blood: "When have I ever lied to you?"
"How did the Imperial Concubine know that Ning Xianyun was the Southern Liang Empress?" Lord Bo asked, "Why didn't the Imperial Concubine report such a secret matter to the Emperor herself?"
Lord Bo really had no reason to believe Concubine Xu.
Either Concubine Xu is the knife in the emperor's hand, or Concubine Xu and that evil creature are in cahoots with each other, deliberately plotting against the Bo family and wanting to kill them.
"I swear on my life that everything I said today is true." Concubine Xu raised three fingers:
The reason I came to you is because this matter involves the Bo family. Only if the Bo family comes forward to accuse the emperor will he believe it. "
Lord Bo remained silent, but a hint of sarcasm in the corner of his mouth inadvertently appeared.
Concubine Xu knew that the other party didn't listen, and her face darkened: "The Bo family is holding a funeral, right? If I remind the emperor and find a coroner to investigate, the crime of deceiving the emperor is enough to execute the whole family, right?"
Now it was Lord Bo's turn to change his expression.
"Since the Bo family is determined to burn their bridges, don't you trust me?" Concubine Xu asked in a deep voice.
The other party was silent for a while. The young eunuch behind him urged him to raise his foot and walk forward. Concubine Xu looked at the other party's back getting farther and farther away and fell silent.
"Your Majesty, will Lord Bo listen to you?" asked the maid.
Concubine Xu pursed her lips. She was not sure now.
She couldn't put all her hopes on Lord Bo, so she had to go see the Queen Mother, who might be able to convince the Emperor of Northern Qi.
When the Queen Mother saw that she had returned safely, she asked the imperial physician to check her pulse and confirm that she was not sick.
"Empress Dowager, I have something to report to you in private." Concubine Xu knelt on the ground, looking anxious.
The Queen Mother was hesitating.
"Reporting to the Empress Dowager, the Emperor summoned Concubine Xu to the main hall for questioning." The eunuch stood outside with a hunched back and reminded.
Concubine Xu's eyelids twitched as she pondered. The Queen Mother waved at her and said, "Go see the Emperor first. We can talk later if you have anything to say."
Helpless, Concubine Xu had to leave.
Along the way, she was thinking about how to explain this matter and bring up the Xu family.
When we arrived at the main hall, we saw Lord Bo lying on the ground as soon as we entered the door. He was bleeding from all seven orifices, his face was blue, and he was motionless.
Concubine Xu's heart sank.
"Why did Concubine Xu go to the Bo family today? Why did she block the way to the palace? What did she say?"
The Emperor of Northern Qi stared at Concubine Xu with vicious eyes.
Concubine Xu was not sure how Lord Bo died, or whether he had said anything to the Emperor of Northern Qi. She gritted her teeth and tried to calm herself down.
She knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the Emperor of Northern Qi: "Your Majesty, I went to the Bo family because I found something strange about the plague. After I was locked up in the palace, no one around me got sick again. In order to verify my guess, I personally watched over the palace maids who were infected with the plague for a day and a night. Madam Bo was the first one to get sick. I really want to know what happened in the Third Prince's Mansion that day. For this reason, I also sent people to open Concubine Ning's coffin, and found that it was not Concubine Ning inside."
"Your Highness, the person is dead, why are you doing this?" Lord Ning looked helpless.
Concubine Xu said, "There is something fishy about this matter. I discovered a secret after investigating it."
When the word "secret" was mentioned, the Emperor of Northern Qi waved his hand and asked everyone to leave.
"Go ahead."
"Yes." Concubine Xu explained: "I found out that Concubine Yuexian gave birth to twins, one of whom was taken away by my aunt to be raised in the Bo family. After the third prince fell off the cliff and was found, his temperament changed drastically. I was already suspicious, so I went to the Bo family to question him out of curiosity."
"How did you find out about this?" The Emperor of Northern Qi stared at Concubine Xu.
"I happened to see a portrait of the third prince when he was a child in the Queen's Palace. I also saw a portrait of Bo Yan, the eldest son of the Bo family who was adopted by the Xu family. The twins looked exactly the same, so I began to suspect them." Concubine Xu said aggrievedly, "Your Majesty, I suspect that Bo Yan has hooked up with the Southern Liang Empress to cause trouble in Northern Qi. I beg Your Majesty to issue an order as soon as possible to summon the third prince back and send someone to capture the Southern Liang Empress."
The Northern Qi Emperor frowned and said, "You two brothers and sisters make me even more confused."
Concubine Xu looked up in confusion.
"Follow me." The Emperor of Northern Qi stood up and went to the small side hall behind him. There was a man lying in the room. Concubine Xu took a closer look and found that it was the third prince!
"This is..." Concubine Xu glanced at the other person's eyes, which were full of arrogance, disdain, and disgust.
She was stunned.
This is actually the real Third Prince.
