Daughter of a High Sect: Abandoned Concubine Reborn

Chapter 69
Xuanyuan Qiche was already dissatisfied with Ouyang Jinxuan's excuse of illness to push him away to the disaster area for disaster relief, but now he wants to punish him properly, even if what Ouyang Jinxuan said is true, he doesn't intend to just let it go over him.

At the palace gate, a carriage rushed past. The guards guarding the palace gate stopped them. When a head poked out from inside, they bowed their hands respectfully, "Fourth Prince!"

Xuanyuan Jue nodded slightly, got into the carriage and continued towards the palace.Today, he made an appointment with Ouyang Luojie. As far as he was concerned, he had long coveted the daughter of the Prime Minister's mansion, and wanted to win over Ouyang Jinxuan through his in-law relationship.He knew that there were two daughters in the Prime Minister's Mansion in the past, but he heard that the eldest lady has not returned from a long trip, and there is no news about it. Now he can only guard the second lady, and must not let others get there first.

When he was by the river, the man in red had a little powder on his face, his eyebrows were picturesque, his lips were bright and teary, and his eyes were full of tears.He had heard long ago that the second young lady of the prime minister's mansion had an alluring appearance, and he only thought it was fabricated by others, but when he saw it today, it was really extraordinary.He had to admit that he was deeply attracted by the person in front of him.

When Ouyang Luojie saw him, her eyes were misty and there were faint tears in her eyes, as if she was about to cry in just a moment.There are so many beauties, not to mention Ouyang Luojie's delicate and pitiful appearance, which made Xuanyuanjue feel a little distressed.He asked, "What's wrong with Second Miss?"

It's okay not to ask, but when he asked, Ouyang Luojie's big eyes were like fountains, and tears poured out of them continuously.

Ouyang Luojie might be a little anxious, she reached out and grabbed Xuanyuanjue's sleeve, and said, "Your Highness, can you save Jie'er's father?" Her voice was choked up, her tone was a little sad, and there was a faint plead.Those big eyes were full of tears, she stared at him fixedly, her eyes were a little timid, but full of hope.

Looking at her beautiful face, he felt a little moved, as if he was thinking about something, and asked aloud after a while, "Second Miss said yes, if I can do my best, I will definitely do my best."

After Ouyang Luojie heard his words, she burst into tears and laughed. She was a little excited, but she still told the whole story. He looked at it with some embarrassment, and frowned slightly, but his tone was very light She said to Ouyang Luojie very gently, "Father has always said the same thing, it may not be useful for me to ask for mercy." He didn't say anything, but in the heart of the emperor, he was insignificant, so he couldn't speak at all.

Hearing this, Ouyang Luojie looked at her steadfastly, the tears that had just been withdrawn filled her eyes again, her brows were frowned, looking aggrieved and anxious.

Xuanyuan Jue frowned and looked at the tearful man in front of him, thinking in his heart, if he didn't help Ouyang Luojie, he was afraid that she would have a gap with him in the future, if he tied her up, he could make her owe him a favor.After hesitating again and again, he said slowly, "Okay, I'll try."

After hearing this, Ouyang Luojie was very grateful, "Fourth prince, your kindness can never be repaid to Luojie."

No, he hurried to the palace precisely because of Ouyang Jinxuan.

After he entered the palace, he went straight to the east palace, as smart as he was, how could he take risks by himself, of course he wanted to borrow the prince's hand.

Prince Xuanyuanye grew up with Xuanyuanjue. In his heart, he couldn't trust Xuanyuanjue more than him, but he didn't know that he would be put behind his back by his most trusted brother in the end.

When he came to the East Palace, Xuanyuan Ye was practicing calligraphy. Xuanyuan Jue told Xuanyuan Ye about Ouyang Jinxuan, but he deliberately omitted the details of Ouyang Luojie's begging him.He just said that now that Ouyang Jinxuan is being punished, if they save him and let the Prime Minister owe them a favor, maybe it will be useful to them in the future.

After hearing this, the prince thought it made sense, now is a good opportunity to win over Ouyang Jinxuan, so he went towards the hall without hesitation.

When he arrived, Ouyang Jinxuan was still kneeling on the ground, and Xuanyuan Qiche who was sitting on top had a gloomy expression on his face. The crown prince looked at Xuanyuan Qiche, stepped forward to greet him, and said, "Ye'er, please greet my father."

Xuanyuan Qiche looked at Xuanyuan Ye below, frowned, and asked, "Why is Ye'er here!"

Xuanyuan Ye didn't panic when he looked at Xuanyuan Qiche, he knew that Xuanyuan Qiche loved him very much, and he wasn't afraid that Xuanyuan Qiche would get angry with him.

He leaned forward and said, "I want to plead for the prime minister." What he said not only stunned Xuanyuan Qiche, but Ouyang Jinxuan who was kneeling on the ground was also stunned. Did he hear wrongly? He begged for mercy, as far as he was concerned, he had very little contact with the prince, why did the prince plead for him.

Xuanyuan Qiche looked at Xuanyuan Ye sullenly, his voice was a little cold, "Do you know what you are doing now?"

Xuanyuan Qiche knelt down and said, "Your servant is bold, but the disasters in various places have not eased, and the prime minister is the pillar of the country. At this juncture, the emperor suddenly disposes of the prime minister, which will definitely cause panic among the officials. They will I thought that the emperor was too worried about the flood of disasters in various places and blamed the prime minister for his anger."

Xuanyuan Qiche was startled when he heard Xuanyuan Ye's words, Xuanyuan Ye's words were not without reason, he nodded thoughtfully.

Without denying it, he felt relieved when he saw Xuanyuan Ye who was so eloquent, and lamented that his son had finally grown up and became sensible, and he was able to express such a truth in one word.

Regarding Ouyang Jinxuan, he didn't want to punish him because he couldn't pay the money for disaster relief. He also knew that what Ouyang Jinxuan said might be true. He just wanted to destroy his prestige and let him know not to Relying on the backing of the Queen Mother, he can act like a domineering person and ignore him as the emperor.

He looked at Xuanyuan Ye who was kneeling next to Ouyang Jinxuan under the stage, his voice gradually softened, and he said, "Ye'er, get up first."

Hearing this, Xuanyuan Ye got up and looked straight at Xuanyuan Qiche without evading his eyes.Xuanyuan Qiche looked at him, "Ye'er's words are not unreasonable. This time, Emperor Father will listen to you and not severely punish the prime minister, but it seems unreasonable to let him go like this."

Xuanyuan Ye chuckled, "That's not easy. Father, you punish the prime minister for a few days and add punishment. First, let the officials who went to the disaster relief feel that the father is a person with a big heart, so that they can relieve the disaster with peace of mind. Secondly, if the prime minister is fined, it can be just right to gamble on everyone, and it is also possible to exempt him from his salary for two years, saving some money for the treasury."

His last sentence "save some money for the national treasury" was like a joke, it was said cutely and cutely, and it extinguished all the anger in Xuanyuan Qiche's heart at once.
