Harem Changwu Biography

Chapter 96 You Are a Coward!

"Father, why do you believe what Chang Ruo says just because you went to Wenxiu Palace?" I said again.

"Then you can't punish her so severely? Don't you know how important the position of empress is to her and our Qiu family?" My father Qiulu said while looking at me angrily after my words.

I heard this but shook my head again.

"Father, you are wrong. The Ai family's punishment for Chang Ruo is not to punish Chang Ruo heavily, but to save her life. It is at Bao Qiu's house." I said.

"Han Rongfeng and his son will return to court in a few months, but Han Yuting died in the palace for no reason. Father, do you think that when they know that the only daughter of their Han family died in the palace for no reason? , after their teacher returns to Beijing, won't they investigate the truth?" I looked at my father Qiulu and asked.

"If Chang Ruo caused Nanny Cui to drug Han Yuting and release Zhu Chengming into the harem, it is not difficult to find out. If the Ai family can find out, the Han family can also find out." I said again.

"The Han family is a family of generals for generations. The members of the family have always protected the weak. If they found out that Han Yuting's death was related to Chang Ruo, father, do you think they would ask the emperor to punish Chang Ruo? If you don’t teach, you have raised such a vicious daughter as an excuse, and ask the emperor to punish or reduce Qiu’s family?”

"Father, you have been an official in the court for a day or two. Based on your understanding of the emperor and other ministers of the previous court, father, do you think that the emperor will try to calm down the Han family in order to win over the military power of the Han family? Anger, and give Chang Ruo a death? Will we decree to weaken our Qiu family in order not to chill the hearts of other officials?"

"Father, please think about it again. As the daughter of the Qiu family, after finding out what Chang Ruo had done, Ai Jia not only did not favor her own sister Chang Ruo, but instead acted impartially for Han Yuting and gave Chang Ruo the medicine to make her a child. If the penalty is long."

"Father, do you think that the Han family will spare Chang Ruo's life because the Ai family has punished Chang Ruo too much, and Chang Ruo has no chance of being a queen? Will the Han family let Chang Ruo go because of the impartiality of the Ai family? Why not target my Qiu family in the face of mourning the family, so that the emperor and other courtiers have no excuse to cut down my Qiu family?"

"So, my lord father, you said that the Ai family gave Chang Ruo the medicine to kill children. Are you punishing Chang Ruo? Or are you protecting Chang Ruo and Qiu's family?" I finally looked at my father Qiu Lu and asked.

Although I used the Han family as a cover for what I said, what I said was completely true.

I thought that with my father's wisdom, after listening to what I said, he should know that what I said was right.Unexpectedly, he didn't care about the anger of the Han family that I said after speaking, but instead showed a look of disdain after my words.

"Hmph, the Han family is just a group of reckless fools who only know how to lead soldiers to fight, and you can blame yourself. Is my Qiu family still afraid that the Han family will fail?" My father said disdainfully.

Looking at my father Qiu Lu's appearance, I knew that he didn't listen to what I just said, so I shook my head, especially wondering how the late emperor fell in love with my father.

"The empress dowager said such a lot of high-sounding things, but they were all just what Chang Ruo said. You knew about your mother's death, and you blamed her death on the Qiu family. You were angering the Qiu family. , to avenge private revenge." After my father Qiu Lu finished talking about the Han family.Then he looked at me again, and then looked at me angrily.

Seeing him like this, I sneered in my heart, but I put on a disappointed look on my face.

"Father, Aijia would like to ask, is everything Changruo says right? Aijia is wrong in everything he does?" I looked at my father Qiulu with a 'disappointed face', sighed, and asked.

"If she grows up, at least she won't attack her own sisters." My father Qiu Lu said after my words.

"The Ai family understands," I nodded upon hearing this, the 'disappointed' expression on my face became more serious. "The Ai family should have known."

"Father, do you know? When you were young, when you asked me to enter the palace instead of Changruo, I didn't think much about it. I even thought that there must always be someone from the Qiu family to enter the palace, right? I am Chang Ruo, I am older than Chang Ruo, so it is natural for me to enter the palace."

After the 'disappointment', I looked at my father Qiu Lu with a sad face, and said slowly.

"It's just that when I grow up, when you, my father, used private visits as an excuse to invite Mingqi to meet Chang Ruo, I knew that in your father's heart, I am still different from Chang Ruo."

"Father, you said that you came to Aijia today because of doubts. In fact, Aijia also has some doubts in his heart and wants to ask Father."

"Father, Aijia would like to ask you, is Qiu Li your woman? Isn't my Aunt Lu? Qiu Changruo is your daughter? Isn't I Qiu Changwu?"

"Father, it's also your woman and daughter. We don't ask you to be a bowl of water, but can't you treat me and Aunt Lu as normal? Why have you always been so prejudiced against us?"

"When you were young, you couldn't bear Changruo to enter the palace to be a widow, but you easily agreed to Qiu Li's proposal and let me enter the palace to be a widow;"

"Aunt Lu just wanted to see me before she died, but you went to tell Aunt Lu when Aunt Chen and the fifth brother were away, saying that I didn't want to recognize her again after I recognized Qiu Li, and that I was mad at her to death. .”

"After she dies, you don't let her enter the Qiu family's ancestral grave, you don't let her enter the Qiu family's concubine's land, just find a wilderness and bury her in the wilderness. You have kept her death from me for ten years and swallowed up my years. The things that I sent to Qiu's mansion in the past year, and now, because of her Qiu Changruo's words, I believe that everything is my fault."

I was pretending to be sad, but it was just to show my father Qiulu.

But later, when I asked my father Qiu Lu one sentence after another, there was no need to put on the look on his face.It's because I can't stop the grievance and resentment in my heart as long as I think about how my father Qiulu treated Changruo, mother and daughter, and Aunt Lu and I all these years.

"Father, I want to ask you a question, have you ever been Aunt Lu and she is your woman? Have you ever been my daughter?" I looked at my father who was completely indifferent to my words, and couldn't help feeling wronged ask.

It's just that my father was not only indifferent to my words, but also showed contempt for Aunt Lu and me after my words, and even forgot the status of a monarch and minister that he had tried his best to maintain just now.

"Heh, is a blind man worthy of being my Qiulu's woman? A blind man's daughter is also worthy of being my daughter?" After I finished speaking, my father Qiulu looked at me with disdain and said.

"You don't like her, why did you touch her in the first place? Do you want to marry her?" I felt the disdain and contempt in my father Qiulu's words and eyes, and couldn't help asking loudly.

"You think I'm willing? If my mother didn't let me accept her back then, would you think I was willing to touch her?" My father also yelled at me.

"Grandmother is not an unreasonable person. If you don't want to accept Aunt Lu, just tell grandma directly. You just tell Aunt Lu that you don't want to accept her. Can Aunt Lu cry and beg you to accept her?" ?”

"Huh? She can't, but my good mother can." My father Qiulu laughed mockingly after my words.

"My good mother, she married into the Qiu family, and she thought she was from the Lu family. In order to let your blind aunt have a man, she actually said something to our brothers. Who can accept you? Na blind aunt! , All the dowry she brings from her natal family will belong to that person.” My father Qiulu looked at me mockingly and said, it seems that what he is looking at is not me at this moment, but through me, he is looking at his long-dead grandmother.

"So you accepted Aunt Lu just for your grandmother's dowry?" I asked in disbelief after hearing the words.

"Of course." My father Qiulu nodded and smiled sarcastically after my words.

"Your grandmother was the daughter of the richest man in the south of the Yangtze River, the Lu family, before she married into the Qiu family. Did you know that when my good uncle, that is, your good grandfather, died, all the property of the Lu family fell to your grandmother? You know How much property does the Lu family have?" My father, Qiu Lu, looked at me frantically and said after being sarcastic.

"You can buy half of the capital city! The Lu family, the richest man in the south of the Yangtze River, has accumulated an incomparably rich family property accumulated over a hundred years. As long as I marry your blind aunt, it will all be mine. Do you think I want it?"

"What's more, the woman sent up is not for nothing, and the family property sent up is not for nothing. Anyway, she is blind. Anyway, your grandmother will die sooner or later. For the sake of the Lu family's property, why can't I let them be proud for a while? "

The more my father talked, the more crazy he became, but the more I listened, the more angry I became. I never thought that the reason why my father agreed to marry my father back then was so unbearable.

"You! Qiu Lu, I look down on you, you are a man who has no responsibility, you are a coward!" I looked at my father Qiu Lu angrily and said.

"Snapped!"

But as soon as I said this, my father Qiulu stepped forward and walked over. Before I could react, he took turns and slapped me.

"You, you hit me?" I touched the place where my father Qiulu had beaten, looked at him coldly and asked.

"Yes, I'll hit you," my father Qiulu was not afraid of the cold air that emanated from my whole body.

"Do you know why I beat you? Let me tell you, one is to pay back the one you beat Chang Ruo yesterday. The other is to beat you because you were disrespectful to me. Don't think that you can be disrespectful to my father just because you have been the Queen Mother for a few days." , I can let you enter the palace as the empress dowager, and I can abolish you as the empress dowager." My father Qiu Lu looked at me madly and mockingly.

"Okay, okay, okay." After his words, I kept saying hello three times.

"Come on, Master Qiu is disrespectful to the queen mother, pass on the password of Ai's family, and drag Taifu Qiu out." I looked at my father Qiu Lu with a sneer, and ordered loudly.

"Qiu Changwu, how dare you?" My father Qiu Lu looked at me angrily and said, he raised his hand and wanted to hit me again, but I stopped him.

"Why didn't I dare?" I asked after stopping my father Qiulu.

"The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics. I am an official of the former court, and you have no right to dispose of me." My father Qiu Lu said.

"Yes, my lord father is right, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, but what if it is a former minister who beat the queen mother?" I sneered again.

"An Fulai, drag Taifu Qiu to Ai's family."

"promise."
