Chapter 1762 The Truth
When Chu Qing bid farewell to the deputy head and returned to Ye's house, Ye Chenxi was waiting for him.

Ye Chenxi was aware of what happened during this period, but she did not intervene. After all, she also agreed with Chu Qing's actions. She knew exactly who the deputy patriarch was.

Chu Qing and Ye Chenxi were chatting when suddenly someone came from the palace, saying that the emperor wanted to summon Chu Qing.It was just a private summons, Chu Qing knew that the emperor summoned him for the matter of the land, and knew that the matter must be settled.

Based on Chu Qing's understanding of the emperor, he knew that the emperor would definitely not punish him for this, so he entered the palace with peace of mind.

When the emperor saw Chu Qing, he said directly to him without exchanging greetings: "I have already heard about what happened among the people a few days ago."

Chu Qing smiled and said, "Your Majesty, that's just nonsense made by the common people."

"Nonsense?" The emperor frowned, then looked at Chu Qing and continued: "I have sent someone to investigate, and there is indeed such a thing."

Chu Qing naturally knew that the emperor didn't believe his words, and he was just talking casually just now, the emperor will know the inside story about this matter sooner or later, there is no need for him to lie to the emperor.

"Chu Qing, tell me honestly, is the land issue your idea?" the emperor looked at Chu Qing seriously and asked.

Chu Qing straightened his face, nodded and said: "That was indeed a trap I set for the deputy head of the family, but I gave him a way out. It was his greed that led to today's consequences."

The emperor frowned slightly, and said angrily: "A shameless person like him, what retreat do you give him?"

Chu Qing smiled and said: "The deputy patriarch is narrow-minded, and he likes to play tricks behind his back. I have suffered a lot from him before. After several contacts, I feel that this person I have to get rid of it, just a stupid, narrow-minded person like him might stab me in the back one day."

The emperor nodded seriously, and then asked: "What's the matter that gold can be dug out from that piece of land? It can't be your fault."

Chu Qing rubbed his nose in embarrassment, and euphemistically explained all his arrangements to the emperor. After hearing this, the emperor praised him again and again, saying that he was smart.

"Also, you made those notes too." The emperor said suddenly, looking at Chu Qing with a half-smile.

Chu Qing nodded with a smile, and then said seriously: "I did write those notes, but the above are facts, and I didn't make them up."

The emperor looked at Chu Qing with a smile, and said, "I know, you have always done things accurately, and you will not do unrighteous things."

Chu Qing nodded with a smile, and said: "Your Majesty knew that I was going to deal with the deputy head of the Ye family, so he simply took this opportunity to get rid of him for me."

The emperor smiled and did not speak. She is an emperor, and she can do some things, but she cannot say them.However, with Chu Qing's ingenuity, this kind of trick can't be hidden from him.

Although the emperor did not answer, Chu Qing already had the answer in his heart. He thought at the time that even though it was clearly written in the booklet and the evidence of the crime was presented, it is impossible for the emperor to directly question the deputy head of the family without even investigating.

Thinking about it this way, it turned out that it was because the emperor knew what he was thinking a long time ago, and then helped him get rid of the deputy head of the Ye family.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Chu Qing bowed his head respectfully.

The emperor waved his sleeves with a smile, and said, "This is the vice-patriarch of the Ye family's own fault, and has nothing to do with me. I just use your power to punish him for the people."

Both Chu Qing and the emperor knew about the matter of the land and the assignment of the frontier to the deputy head of the Ye family, but there were some things that could not be announced after all, so they stopped discussing them.
