Be good, call me uncle

Chapter 162 Dog Man, his future is bleak

The little palace maid came to the crowd and saluted: "My slaves pay homage to the Queen Mother, and pay homage to our emperor, long live..."

Emperor Jiayou's expression showed no emotion or anger: "Please tell me what happened just now. If there is even half of a sentence that is false, I will not spare you!"

The little palace lady knelt on the ground and said tremblingly: "Just now, my servant was waiting in the imperial garden, buying tea for the nobles who were present. Unexpectedly, I was called over by a young man in brocade clothes. The young master in brocade clothes asked my servant to ask Princess Qi to a secluded place. He also promised the slave a hundred taels of silver. The slave was greedy for money, so he agreed to the young master to go and make an appointment with Princess Qi. But as soon as Princess Qi heard the news, she immediately turned away and walked away. The slave failed in her mission and was afraid that Master Jinyi would take back the hundred taels of silver, so she had to She had been following Princess Qi, trying to find an opportunity to persuade her, but she saw Mr. Jinyi became angry and suddenly rushed to block the way of Princess Qi and Princess Zhenli, and wanted to make a move. Then, the frightened Zhen Princess Li called the guards to restrain the young master, but I don’t know what happened next.”

Princess Zhenli breathed a sigh of relief and sobbed softly into her handkerchief. Yu Qinghuan let go of her tightly clenched hands in her sleeves.

Master Qin said angrily: "You little palace lady, you speak very eloquently. Could this testimony of yours be prepared in advance?"

The little palace lady immediately took out a banknote with a face value of one hundred taels, and with her head as big as garlic, she kept kowtowing and loudly and vigorously proved her innocence: "Your Majesty, Queen Mother, if there is even half a lie in what I just said, let me I will not die a good death! My whole family will not die a good death either!"

The Queen Mother sighed: "Mr. Qin, I was brought here by the Ai family, but the Ai family doesn't like others gossiping. If you have any questions, you can ask this palace daughter carefully, so as not to make people think that the Ai family and the emperor have bullied you. .”

The Queen Mother's words sounded nice, but when she said that she had found the palace maid, she was clearly using her power to bully others. Could it be that Mr. Qin could still jump up and down, beat gongs and drums, and tell the world that the Queen Mother could find someone to give false testimony?

Once it involves someone from the royal family, no matter how reasonable you are, as long as the royal family refuses to admit it, you have nothing to say. What's more, Mr. Qin knows his son's virtue and he has no reason to say anything!

"Sir, I don't dare."

The Empress Dowager said: "The occurrence of such a thing really puts the emperor in a difficult position. On one side are his close ministers and on the other are family members. No matter how he decides, it is impossible to get the best of both worlds. Since there is evidence from the palace, it is indeed the son who is rude." First, the Ai family will act like a bad guy and let this matter go to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings."

"Princess Qi." The Queen Mother called softly.

Yu Qinghuan kowtowed: "I am here."

The Queen Mother said: "No matter what the reason is, this matter happened because of you. Although it is not your fault that you attract people's admiration, you did cause trouble. The Ai family did a good job in remembering you in Qizhou, and the birth mother was newly deceased. For my own sake, I will give you a wide berth. In the future, you must be careful with your words and deeds, and don’t leave anything to say to others.”

This was a matter of picking it up high and putting it down gently, belittling her openly and protecting her secretly. Yu Qinghuan bowed seriously: "I sincerely abide by the teachings of the Queen Mother."

The Queen Mother continued: "Mr. Qin, today your son first entangled Princess Qi, and then shocked Zhenli. However, considering that you have worked hard for the country for decades, the Ai family will not pursue your son's crimes. However, in the future, Wherever Princess Qi may appear, the son is not allowed to set foot, otherwise it will be regarded as disobeying Yi's decree. In addition, the Ai family asked Dr. Xing to take care of the son's health. Once the son's condition improves, he will immediately apologize to Zhenli. "

Although the Queen Mother's treatment did not appear to severely punish Qin Zhen on the surface, it was actually more serious than killing him directly.

The trend of imperial examinations was prevalent in the Qin Dynasty. Qin Zhen was an out-and-out scholar. If he wanted to get ahead, he couldn't do without studying. However, Qin Zhen was not allowed to set foot in any place where Yu Qinghuan might appear. That would end all Qin Zhen's success. Qin Zhen, who can't take the imperial examination or be shadowed by his family, has no way out. His future is over. Even Yu Qian can't save him!

Thunder, rain and dew are all the kindness of the emperor. Except for national affairs, the emperor listens to the Queen Mother. Mr. Qin dare not disobey. Even if he knows that the Queen Mother is protecting his family, he has nothing to say about his grievances. The blame is on his son Tai Accidentally, the vixen seduced the soul.Mr. Qin did not dare to offend the eldest princess and eldest Sun Tao, so he blamed Princess Zhenli and Yu Qinghuan and secretly held a grudge against them!
He gritted his teeth and saluted, saying: "Wei Chen, I obey!"

The farce ended. Changsun Tao bent down to help Yu Qinghuan up and said: "When you see him, you should call me the king. If Xiao Xiao takes one step closer to you, I will cut off his hands and feet."

"Thank you, King Qi." Yu Qinghuan stood up and supported Changsun Tao, "Are you okay?"

Changsun Tao said: "It hurts a little. The injury may be more serious. Princess, you owe me a favor."

Yu Qinghuan said: "Okay, I'll prepare delicious food for you when I go back home. If you can't pay for one meal, then I'll have two meals."

Changsun Tao smiled with satisfaction: "Help me sit down."

Yu Qinghuan supported him calmly, and the two of them sat together at a small table not far from the emperor and empress.

"You are too arrogant today." Yu Qinghuan poured him a cup of tea, "I'm not afraid of punishing you now."

Changsun Tao put his lips to Yu Qinghuan's ear and whispered: "For him, I'm afraid he would rather see me arrogant. Only in this way will he feel that he has grasped my faults, and he will not Because this little thing will immediately cure this king's crime, otherwise how can I keep the reputation of a benevolent king?"

Yu Qinghuan whispered softly: "Everything you say makes sense, I'm just worried about you."

Changsun Tao said: "Since you are worried about me, you should take good care of yourself. I don't know what kind of emotions you have towards Qin Zhen, but I think that such a thing today is really not worth doing."

Yu Qinghuan said: "To me, he is a stain in my life. He reminds me all the time of how stupid and embarrassing my past was. I will never allow this stain to exist forever, just like I can't rub sand out of my eyes!"

Changsun Tao Zhuangruo asked unintentionally: "Do you still care about him?"

Yu Qinghuan said: "How is it possible?"

Changsun Tao slowly turned around: "Only when you care will you get angry, and only when you care will you get angry. If you don't care, he won't even give a damn!"

Yu Qinghuan raised her eyebrows and looked at him, wanting to explain something, but in the end she didn't. Regardless of whether Chang Sun Tao said he cared or not, Qin Zhen was a thorn in her heart, it would hurt if she touched it, and she really didn't want to mention it again.

The two of them fell into silence. Yu Qian glanced at her and smiled a little deeper.
