In the imperial study room, there was deathly silence.
The emperor rubbed the jade ring on his thumb and made no sound for a long time. His expression was dark and unclear. No one present could guess what he was thinking about at the moment!
Yun Qi knelt on the ground and tried to argue with the emperor several times, but Bai Yanqing gently pressed him down!
"Your Majesty! Regarding Cai Xing's identity, I really didn't know it before! Not only did I not know it, but my father, and even everyone in the Bai family now didn't know it! She was abandoned in our Bai Mansion back then. It was my mother who picked her up through the back door! She was still in her infancy at the time! There was not a single word on her body to clarify her identity! How did we know that she was the emperor of the Star-Moon Kingdom? Of course, the minister The emperor definitely doesn’t believe these things! The emperor can send someone to check and know the truth!”
Every word Bai Yanqing said was appropriate! Her eyes were firm and she didn't dodge! Be sincere and unafraid!
The emperor stared at Bai Yanqing intently and still didn't say a word! It seems that... she is also looking forward to seeing what she will say next!
"My daughter, be brave and speak your mind to the Emperor! My daughter knows that the Emperor has always been wary of the Bai family, but the Emperor should also know that my father, your Prime Minister! He has a clean mind and never forms cliques or cliques in the court for personal gain. Pai! In fact, the emperor should know this better than anyone else! But you still don’t trust my father! Whenever something happens, you will doubt him first! What crime is he guilty of? Is it because his wife, who has passed away long ago, Just saved a life? Will the Bai family be charged with this groundless crime?"
Bai Yanqing stared closely into the emperor's eyes, never timid at all!
"As for the marriage between my daughter and His Highness, the emperor can back out if he wants! I have no complaints! Thunder, rain and dew are all your kindness. We all in the Bai family understand this truth!"
Bai Yanqing once again took a deep look at the emperor. Then, she bent down, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed to the emperor! The sound was so loud that even the Grand Eunuch on the side was shocked!
"Going to the Star-Moon Kingdom was a willful mistake by my daughter. I hope that the emperor will not involve other people in the Bai family! If the emperor is not relieved, he can kill my daughter to serve as a warning to others!"
Bai Yanqing's words not only shocked the emperor! Even Yun Qi, who was standing next to her, didn't expect that she would suddenly say these words!
"Madam! What are you talking about? Don't you want me anymore? Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..."
Yun Qi pulled Bai Yanqing's sleeves and cried! This appearance is very similar to Yun Ji! As expected of a brother!
"His Royal Highness, the Emperor has already said that you and my daughter are no longer engaged! From now on, we will go back to each other, and we will have nothing to do with each other! Please don't call me "Mother" anymore, so as not to offend you. People criticize! At that time, I, the Bai family, will be accused of clinging to relatives of the emperor and the country again! "
Bai Yanqing turned sideways, glanced at Yun Qi, and secretly winked at Yun Qi from an angle that the emperor couldn't see!
Yun Qi understood, but the crying and howling became louder!
"Father! Please say something! Are you really so cruel that you want to kill my wife?"
Yunqi knelt on his knees, moved with his knees, and walked forward to the emperor! He pulled the emperor's clothes and cried!
Has the emperor ever seen Yunqi like this? I was shocked, annoyed and angry at the moment!
"What nonsense! Get up! You are the majestic eldest prince of the Chen Kingdom. How do you look like this?!"
The emperor finally said something! But he scolded and yelled, and asked the eunuch to help Yun Qi up!
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Oh no! Nanny Sun and the Third Prince have barged in!"
A young eunuch on duty outside the imperial study room suddenly ran in and shouted to the emperor!
Seeing the anxious look on his face and the sweat on his head, you knew he couldn't stop the person, so he ran in to report!
Grandma Sun? The third prince?
They came at the right time!
Bai Yanqing knelt on the ground, where no one could see her, and quietly raised the corners of her mouth!
When Yun Ji helped Grandma Sun in, what he saw was the embarrassed emperor who was being pulled by Yun Qi.
, and Bai Yanqing kneeling on the ground!
"Your Majesty, what are you doing?"
Grandma Sun was the first to speak. Looking at the tearful Yun Qi, a feeling of love and affection filled her heart! She didn't care about etiquette and spoke directly with questioning.
The emperor was so entangled by Yun Qi that he didn't pay attention to what Nanny Sun said last time.
"Bai girl, get up quickly! It's so cold on the ground! You've always been weak, how can you withstand such a long time?"
Grandma Sun bent down and stretched out her hands to Bai Yanqing.
Bai Yanqing raised her head slightly and looked at Grandma Sun. Her eyes were moist and filled with tears, and her fair little face was full of grievances!
"Thank you for your kindness, mama! My little girl can't get up! The emperor said that the Bai family is suspected of collaborating with the enemy and treason! My little girl... is asking for forgiveness! Without the emperor's forgiveness, I don't dare to get up! I can't get up either!"
After saying that, Bai Yanqing adjusted her kneeling posture again and knelt down on the ground again. His solemn, respectful and aggrieved look really makes those who see him feel heartbroken!
In fact, Bai Yanqing didn't realize how cold the ground was after kneeling for such a while! After all, before going out, Mo Ran put knee pads on her knees in advance! I have to say that Mo Ran was prescient! In addition, the emperor's study room was already as warm as spring, with several stoves baking, so where could she be cold?
It's just that after kneeling for a long time, my knees are a little numb, but it's true!
Bai Yanqing originally didn't want to take advantage of Nanny Sun's compassion, but... in this situation, she could only bite the bullet, surrender first, and call in reinforcements! Looking back, no matter how much she pays filial piety to Grandma Sun, she will atone for her mistake of taking advantage of Grandma Sun!
At the moment, the emperor seems to be riding a tiger. While being pulled and entangled by Yun Qi, at the same time being scolded by Grandma Sun, this scene made the Grand Eunuch beside him couldn't help but click his tongue! For a moment, I didn’t know whether I should go to the eldest prince first or comfort grandma Sun first!
"Okay! Give me a break! When did I say I was going to convict the Bai family?!"
The blue veins on the emperor's forehead were prominent. He was really upset by Grandma Sun and Yun Qi!
"But...Father, you said that you want to cancel the marriage between your son and the Bai family! Your son is my wife's husband in life, and my ghost husband in death! Father...wuwuwuwu..."
Yunqi has learned 70% to 80% of the methods of making Yunji slutty! He pulled the emperor's sleeves and cried and howled at the same time! The deafening shout made Bai Yanqing, who was kneeling on the ground, almost lose his power!
"What? Break off the engagement? Why break off the engagement? Your Majesty, the marriage between the Bai family and the eldest prince was the last wish of the Bai family before they died! Previously, they were interfered with by the Third Highness for a while, and now... now, the two of them, We finally looked at each other and got married, why do you want to break them up again?"
Grandma Sun looked at the girl kneeling on the ground with shock on her face, and then looked at the emperor in disbelief!
"Sir! You went early! The old slave is alone and weak, so he can't protect His Highness and His Highness the Third, that's all! Now, even the marriage you specially promised to His Highness is going to be ruined! Old slave I'm sorry! I will apologize to you with death and leave with you! When the time comes, you will punish me and scold me! I already admit it!"
While pushing away Yun Ji who was supporting her, Grandma Sun stumbled and hit a pillar on the side with her head on her head! Crying while bumping into each other!
This sudden situation shocked everyone present and they were stunned!
Fortunately, Yun Ji had quick eyesight and quickly reached out to hold Grandma Sun, thus avoiding a "tragedy" from happening!
"Mother Sun, what are you doing? Do you really have the heart to leave me and my brother who were raised by you?"
Yun Ji held Grandma Sun's arm and refused to let go.
Grandma Sun didn't say anything, she just wiped the corners of her eyes and sobbed quietly!
Although Bai Yanqing was kneeling on the ground and could not clearly see the situation in front of her, she could probably tell from the tone of Yun Ji's words that Yun Ji truly regarded Grandma Sun as an elder in the family! Yun Ji's eagerness and concern didn't look staged at all!
Bai Yanqing felt a little guilty in her heart, for the sake of herself and Yun
Qi's matter has affected Grandma Sun, who is so old, and she still has to worry about them!
"Your Majesty, you have made countless mistakes, and they are all the fault of one of you! Your Majesty, please don't embarrass Aunt Sun and your two highnesses!"
Bai Yanqing knelt on the ground, clasped her palms on the ground, raised her forehead slightly, and then knocked it down hard!
"Dong dong dong", several kowtows in succession instantly silenced everyone in the room. These sounds of kowtowing are particularly clear and heavy!
The emperor did not speak, and the others only watched silently, feeling distressed, but did not dare to step forward to persuade him.
"Lady!"
Yun Qi put aside the emperor's sleeves and hurriedly ran to Bai Yanqing! Then, he spread his hands to protect Bai Yanqing's forehead, so that when Bai Yanqing knocked down, he would not directly hit the floor tiles!
The soft palm of his hand touched Bai Yanqing's slightly cold forehead, and Yun Qi's heart trembled! He really felt sorry for Bai Yanqing! At the same time, he also secretly blamed himself. If only he could deal with these troublesome things earlier! Then we won't leave such a mess for the emperor to find trouble!
"If the mother has a soul in heaven, she will definitely not let her son suffer such injustice! Father, even though my son is not very smart, he also knows that the parents' beloved son has far-reaching plans!" ..
Yunqi made a "pop" sound and knelt down again. While protecting Bai Yanqing's forehead with his palms, he knelt straight and spoke to the emperor.
"Father, I respect my father, and I also like my wife. If my father... really let my son make a choice! My son... will never disobey my father! But my son is also determined not to marry for the rest of my life! My son... Tomorrow I will lose my hair, go to the temple, and become a monk!"
Yunqi's words shocked everyone present again!
Yun Ji secretly thought: Is it true that Brother Huang is not coming? Is it really worth it for such a woman?
Grandma Sun was sobbing softly while secretly wondering whether Yun Qi's words could be taken seriously!
The Grand Eunuch on the side showed some admiration for Yunqi!
The emperor's expression was unpredictable, and no one could tell what he was thinking in his mind at this moment! But I have to say that Yunqi's words still touched the emperor's heart!
"Parents who love their children have far-reaching plans." Indeed, in this regard, the emperor is indeed inferior to the emperor! He has always been worried about his sons, worrying about his throne and threatening himself. It seems that he has never planned the future for his sons!
This sentence is so ironic!
The emperor finally began to feel a little guilty in his heart! Externally, he is a wise king, but internally, he is not a kind and loving father!
"Nonsense! The dignified eldest prince of the Chen Kingdom wants to become a monk in a temple? How decent is that? Do you want outsiders to come and see my joke?"
The emperor deliberately darkened his face and shouted at Yunqi. However, if you are careful, it is not difficult to find that in his words, he is actually caring about Yunqi!
Hearing these words, the Grand Eunuch didn't know what others thought, but the Grand Eunuch, who had been with him for many years and knew the emperor's heart well, heard something else!
After thinking for a moment, the Grand Eunuch stood behind the emperor and winked secretly at Yunqi!
