Chapter 69 Retrial Case
  Qin Liuliu's voice became more confident: "I wonder if the emperor has made a decision about what I reported to you? As a citizen of Nanruan, I must believe in the emperor and believe that every decision he makes is extremely wise!"

These words can be said to be a perfect shot of the rainbow fart.

If it were someone with poor concentration, he might have been praised so much that he couldn't find anything to say.

But the emperor just glanced at her sideways and turned to look in Cheng's direction.

Mrs. Cheng's heart skipped a beat and she secretly thought it was not good.

Just as he was about to kneel down to plead guilty, he heard the emperor's next words: "The Cheng family of Yaozhou has taught her daughter well. Although she is young, she is brave and resourceful."

He didn't even give Qin Liuliu a single glance.

Qin Liuliu's expression instantly became ugly and distorted.

Looking at Pei Shao, he wanted to eat her alive.

Cheng was also stunned.

She couldn't believe it.

However, she was still very keenly aware of the main character in the emperor's words.

Glancing at Pei Shao, who was eating next to him, Cheng's heart was filled with turmoil.

Didn't he just go out to use the toilet? Why did you get a commendation from the emperor?
  The emperor praised Pei Shao so much that even Pei Haoting, who had always been expressionless sitting in the back, changed his expression.

After making peace with Mr. Cheng, even the old lady left.

Things in the house, especially in the back house, were a mess.

Even at today's palace banquet, there was no woman in the palace who could take action. In the end, Su Xing was chosen to bring the general.

There is no other reason. Among the people in the back house, Su Xing is the most honest now, not to mention that she is also pregnant now.

Everyone else was eager to move on Mrs. Hou's position, and Pei Haoting had already annoyed them.

Thinking again of the group of concubines and concubines in the mansion who were fighting openly and secretly, compared to Pei Shao, who was praised by the emperor at the age of three.

For the first time, Pei Haoting regretted breaking up with Mr. Cheng.

Qin Liuliu knelt on the ground quietly, biting her lip.

She really couldn't believe it.

Pei Shao—Pei Shao, how dare she!
  The jealousy in her eyes was so strong that it was about to materialize.

"Your Majesty!" She raised her head suddenly, still in disbelief.

The finger pointed firmly in Pei Shao's direction.

Seeing that she was so ignorant and unable to understand, the emperor frowned slightly.

Even General Qin, who was sitting at the other table, looked as dark as the bottom of a pot.

The woman's heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly rushed over and knelt down, covering Qin Liuliu's mouth tightly, not allowing her to speak anymore, and burst into tears.

"Your Majesty! My little girl has been suffering from fever for the past two days... these past two days, she has seriously lost her mind. She has offended the Emperor and all the empresses! I hope... I hope the Emperor will let her go because she is still young!"

It was the night of reunion, and the emperor didn't want to make things worse.

Besides, Qin Liuliu was only five or six years old, and he didn't want to worry too much about a child.

After a few mild scoldings, the woman hurriedly pulled Qin Liuliu away.

Marquis Wu'an and General Qin looked at each other, and neither of them looked good-looking.

General Qin's expression was as disgusting as if he had eaten a fly.

After Qin Liuliu was taken away, the palace banquet continued. Because of the emperor's words of praise, more and more people came to toast Cheng.

It's just that they are basically petty officials with little real power and not very big officials.

They said it was a toast, but in fact they were secretly inquiring about information, both overtly and covertly.

But Cheng really didn't know this time.

She smiled perfunctorily, and the adults basically noticed it, and they didn't ask for trouble. They toasted and returned to their seats.

But Mrs. Cheng always felt that the incident about Mr. Cheng in Yaozhou that Qin Liuliu had revealed was hanging over her head like a time bomb.

It always disturbs her and makes her restless. She sat on her seat as if on pins and needles.

Pei Shao was very considerate on the side.

When it's time to eat, it's time to play. I have a big chicken drumstick in my left hand and a big elbow in my right hand. It's a great time to eat.

Cheng sighed, no longer caring about her or looking at her, just out of sight and out of mind.

[How come Qin Liuliu is so courageous that he even dares to harm the princess]

Cheng's hand shook and she almost stopped holding the wine glass.

She turned her head and glanced at Pei Shao calmly, then raised her eyes to pay attention to the expressions of the people around her.

After making sure that no one around her was abnormal, Cheng breathed a sigh of relief.

The palace banquet was coming to an end. The emperor raised the wine glass in his hand with a rare smile on his face.

"The corruption and bribery case of the Cheng family in Yaozhou back then seems to have some hidden secrets now."

After hearing this, Prince Yao's expression became unusually straightened, and he immediately sat upright.

"Brother, what you said is wrong! Because of a childish unintentional remark, you want to dig up that old case and try it again?"

King Anping laughed angrily, looking like he was watching a good show.

Prince Yao glared angrily.

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, the emperor coughed heavily.

"Master Cui."

Mr. Cui immediately stood up from his seat and knelt on one knee.

"Since there may be something hidden, the case must be overturned, and the Cheng family of Yaozhou can be considered innocent. Mr. Cui, then I will leave this matter to you."

Master Cui is the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, and the case that year was settled in the hands of the old Minister of the Ministry of Justice, Mr. Cui's father.

Hearing Mr. Cui's name, Prince Yao relaxed again.

Unexpectedly, the emperor named him again.

"Master Su Wen'an has a close relationship with the Cheng family in Yaozhou, so I would like to ask Master An to help keep an eye on this case." The emperor sighed and said leisurely: "Nan Ruan's matter should not be troublesome. Envoy, can..."

"My honor." Cheng Bingwen stood up and bowed to the emperor, his voice extremely calm.

"Emperor Nan Ruan has entrusted me with the task, and I will do my best to fulfill it."

Prince Yao's expression tensed up again, and he waited fearfully for the emperor's next arrangement.

Even the beauties singing and dancing were not in the mood.

Who knew that until the end, the emperor did not give any other orders.

After exchanging glances with Cheng Yunchi, Cheng led Pei Shao out of the palace door first.

Her status is not high, so no one cares about her if she stays here.

Others flattering each other has nothing to do with them.

It wasn't until there were no other people around that Cheng finally had time to ask Pei Shao about his situation.

"What's going on? Why did you go to the toilet for so long before you came back?"

She held Pei Shao in her arms and her voice was low.

Pei Shao hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to tell everything.

Including how he followed Qin Liuliu to the garden and saw Shen Shihuan falling into the water in the lotus pond, but the existence of the plot was hidden in it.

Cheng also knew in her heart that she must be hiding something from herself.

But I didn’t ask further questions.

After all, she is a little girl, so she should keep some secrets. As a mother, she must keep secrets for her.

Shao Shao didn't want to say it, and she didn't force it.
