"Master, you can't ignore Ze'er. He has always been doing things for the family and has never been selfish..."
In the Chu family mansion, Mrs. Chu burst into tears. Apart from her, the second and third masters of the Chu family also looked at Chu Yu solemnly, waiting for the eldest brother to make up his mind.
As the eldest son of Chu, Chu Ze is his biological son, Chu Yu, and naturally he has done a lot for the Chu family.
Originally, the Chu family was working step by step, but now they have successfully encroached on Shanngling Academy. They can only wait to continue to win over the students and let them be used for their own purposes.
Who would have thought that Qi Zhuo, a small plan to cause internal strife in Princess Protector's palace, or to turn against Qi Bohou's palace, would actually lead to Feng Xi's crazy counterattack.
The emperor heard the case overnight yesterday, and this morning the case was handed over to Dali Temple. Chu Yu was personally escorted by Qi Xiao and sent to prison this afternoon.
If it was just Chu Ze who was unlucky, they could still use this to criticize Feng Xi for showing favoritism, but the five little brats were also detained tightly, and their previous records of pushing other children were uncovered.
Among them, a child from a low-ranking official and a commoner's family fell into the water in winter. The former's family still had some spare money, and although he was suffering from the root cause of the disease, he was still alive.
Another commoner child has been dead for several months. His family has been in trouble with Jingzhao Mansion several times but has not received justice. Meeting Qi Xiao now is like meeting a god.
Under the leadership of this family, other children, scholars, and scholars who had been wronged in Shanling Academy came to the gate of Dali Temple one after another. Now they can no longer suppress the matter.
"Brother, is this all Ze'er and Qing'er can do..."
The third master, Chu Ming, looked at his eldest brother and was worried about his little grandson.
In the past few days, his daughter and his wife had begged several times, hoping to save the seven-year-old child.
That's still a child...
How could she, Feng Xi, do it!
Just for the life of that civilian Meng Tong?
He couldn't help but be angry, but even though he was a censor, he was helpless in the face of the current situation.
Finally, Chu Yu, who was sitting in the first place, said:
"Everyone, the emperor has been dissatisfied with our Chu family for a long time. No matter how Xiaotang and Yu'er asked for an audience today, he ignored them. What does this mean? It means that the emperor is determined to solve this matter."
Speaking of this, Chu Yu seemed to have become much older all of a sudden.
After all, he is his son...
But he finally said:
"As the saying goes, if you continue to break up, you will suffer chaos. The reason why our Chu family is able to achieve today's power lies in the word 'choice'. What we give up today is what we will gain in the future. Today's humiliation will not be in vain for our Chu family. by!"
"It will not be in vain!"
While Chu Yu was making the decision to abandon his car to protect his commander, the Mu family was also in trouble because of Mu Qing's incident.
"Qingze, Qing'er is your nephew, you can't ignore this matter. Princess Protector's heart is tied to you. As long as you are willing to speak, she will definitely give Qing'er a way to live!"
In the Spring and Autumn Courtyard, the second room of the Mu family, headed by the second master Mu, all went out to ask Mu Qingze to speak for his nephew Mu Qing.
Mu Qing was a child, but this child killed and maimed other children.
As the mastermind, he has been imprisoned by Qi Xiao in Dali Temple, waiting for the final punishment.
The Mu family also knew the laws of Dazhao. Under the current situation, Qi Xiao would probably sentence the child to the same exile as Chu Ze.
After all, Chu Ze was an adult and had a chance of survival in exile, but how could they, a child like Qing'er, live in that bitter cold place?
To put it another way, it is still unknown whether he can even reach that bitter cold place...
"Do you really think that Feng Xi will definitely listen when I speak? What if she doesn't listen?"
Mu Qing frowned, his picturesque brows filled with coldness, not only because of the incompetence of the second wife of the Mu family, but also because of Feng Xi, a troublemaker who couldn't get rid of him since she got attached to him a few years ago.
Whenever he meets Feng Xi these years, he will never be in a good mood.
"Qingze, my second uncle knows that you don't want to see the Princess Protector, but she really admires you. Not to mention our family, who in Shengjing doesn't know that?"
"Yes, second brother, please don't belittle yourself. Your sister-in-law said that day, she asked Yao'er to draw her and hang it in your study so you can see her every day."
After hearing what his brother said, Mu Qingze's eyes turned cold and he asked Mu Yao directly beside him:
"Yao'er, can you take this seriously?"
Mu Yao's eyes averted when she heard this. She didn't want to give Feng Xi a chance, so she didn't plan to tell her brother when she came back.
Who knows...
Lowering her head and eyes, Mu Yao finally nodded honestly and said:
"Brother, she just wants you to pay attention to her. Don't be fooled!"
However, Mu Yao's words brought a smile to Mu Qingze's eyes.
He didn't care about the life or death of that naughty boy Mu Qing, he just wanted to see how Feng Xi and Qi Xiao were getting along now.
Therefore, under the earnest expectations of the Second Master Mu, the First Master Mu and others, Mu Qing agreed to write a letter and send it to the Princess Protector's Mansion. Whether this matter will succeed or not depends on Feng Xi's attitude and their luck.
In the afternoon, the garden was full of spring and the sun was just right. Feng Xi was listening to Tian Xi telling her about the sowing situation in Zhuangzi while playing with the butterfly blade in her hand.
The shadow of the knife flies and the wings of butterflies flutter.
Tianxi, who has always been very articulate, could see that he was stuck on three sentences and five on five sentences, and the word "fear" was almost written on his forehead.
"The rice, wheat, potatoes, and corn seeds that the prince-in-law took from you have all been put to the ground. There is also news from Manager Sun that she has received the veterans of Hanyuguan who have entered Beijing. It will take five days at most. Then you can send them to various villages, Zhuangzi..."
Feng Xi nodded and didn't notice Tian Xi's fear at all, because she was sighing at how scary Qi Xiao was.
Investigate cases, interrogate cases, arrest people, farm, manage the treasury...
People are so busy with afterimages, but this guy still has time to think about her high-yielding crops.
Even her personal guard was composed by him himself.
Very busy.
So strong.
She likes it so much.
Why didn't she meet such a good, hard-working and capable long-term worker in her previous life?
So she thought about it carefully, she couldn't just go out and sit back and enjoy the results, right?
But what can she do for Qi Xiao?
She can't get anything good out of it.
Just as Feng Xi was thinking about it, she saw a boy running up to Tian Xi outside the door. With a look of surprise on his face, he thrust a letter into Tian Xi's hand and whispered a few words in his ear.
Then she saw that Tian Xi's face was happy, worried, sad and angry. In short, his face was changing like flipping through a book, and his whole face was almost distorted. Then she handed the letter to Feng Xi and said:
"Princess, there is a letter from Mr. Mu Xiaohou of Qi Bohou Mansion, saying that it is specially written for you..."
"who?"
Feng Xi was stunned and couldn't remember who it was. When Tianxi saw his princess acting like this, he thought that the princess' old love was unforgettable, so he said at that time:
"Princess, it's not that I'm a talkative old slave, but the letter from Mr. Mu Xiaohou is so subtle that it may have something to do with his nephew Mu Qing. Your relationship with your consort has just improved, so you can't do it now..."
Before Tianxi could say the word "confused", he saw his princess holding the letter as if she had found a treasure, her eyes glowing green and saying:
"Tianxi, you said Qi Xiao hates Mu Qingze so much. If I hand over this letter to him, will it be enough for him to arrest Mu Qingze and beat him up?"
Tianxi: "?"
Before Tianxi could answer, Feng Xi already felt that this move was very feasible and said:
"Why don't I send you out to seduce you, let's fish for law enforcement, and then get two more letters from Qi Xiao?"
Tianxi: "..."
Princess, you have changed, you were not like this before...
