Be good, call me uncle

Chapter 160 King Qi protects his wife domineeringly!

The eldest princess said: "Brother, your Majesty, it's not Zhenli who is causing trouble this time, but a blind thief who dares to bully Zhenli in public! Brother, although Zhenli is not more noble than the princess, she is still a minister." I am a pampered daughter who has grown up. Could it be that my sister has been living in seclusion for a long time, so some people think that the eldest princess's house is easy to bully? Please ask the emperor brother to make the decision for my daughter!"

Princess Zhenli is a relative of the emperor and represents the face of the royal family to a large extent. In addition, Princess Zhenli took the initiative to bring up the matter of being bullied. No one has doubted Princess Zhenli's words yet. After all, she is a woman who has not left the government. , and he is still a wealthy person, so there is no need to use his reputation to destroy an unknown person.

Therefore, no matter what the truth is, no matter how much everyone hates the eldest princess, public opinion is now leaning towards Princess Zhenli.

Even if some people think that Princess Zhenli is causing trouble, they dare not come out and say a word, because no one dares to face the authority of the eldest princess.

The emperor's face looked very much like Changsun Tao, but was more mature. There was a hint of anger: "Zhenli, what's going on? Who bullied you?"

Princess Zhenli is indeed a master of drama. When the emperor asked her, she really expressed three parts anger, three parts grievance, three parts shame and one part fear. She cried and said: "Just now Zhenli was wandering in the garden. Zhenli met a woman by chance and felt that she was very close to her. After asking, she found out that it was Princess Qi. Zhenli and Princess Qi had a good conversation, so they went to the Imperial Garden together. Unexpectedly, a man jumped out and blocked Zhenli's path. , and wanted to do something to Zhenli. Zhenli was so frightened that she called the guards to catch the thief. However, due to the sudden incident, Zhenli did not see the appearance of the thief clearly, but Zhenli had asked the guards to check. I believe the identity of that little thief will be found out soon!"

As soon as Princess Zhenli finished speaking, the guards came to report: "Your Majesty, that little thief is the son of Mr. Qin, the minister of the Ministry of Industry."

The expressions of several nobles changed, and the eldest princess's expression became even more ugly.

Lord Qin came out of the crowd and knelt down to apologize. Just when he was about to defend Qin Zhen, Yu Qinghuan knelt down and spoke first: "Queen Mother, Your Majesty, Your Highness the Eldest Princess, this matter is my fault."

The queen and queen mother were fortunate enough to know some of the "past" between Yu Qinghuan and Qin Zhen, and their expressions were somewhat meaningful.

The emperor's gaze fell on Yu Qinghuan's face, which was unpredictable and difficult to fathom: "Princess Qi, what's going on?"

Yu Qinghuan was like a frightened bird, and his voice was quite aggrieved: "Your Majesty, Mr. Qin is my cousin above all etiquette. Mr. Qin often comes to the prime minister's house as a guest, so I have known him for a long time. I am in the future. Before leaving the court, Mr. Qin expressed his feelings to me many times, but I believed that the marriage was an important matter ordered by my parents and the matchmaker, so I cut off all contact with him and always avoided her. Who would have thought that just now? We met in the imperial garden and he came to pester me, but Princess Zhenli, who didn't know the truth, misunderstood that everything was my fault and asked the Queen Mother and Your Majesty to punish me."

Mr. Qin was furious: "Princess Qi! You can eat whatever you want, but you can't talk nonsense. How can a dog miss you? If a fly doesn't bite a seamless egg, it's obviously your misbehavior. If you hadn't seduced me first, , how could such a thing happen?!"

"Does Lord Qin think that I am not as good as your son, so he asked my princess to take the risk to seduce you in the imperial garden even though I don't have it?" Changsun Tao walked to Yu Qinghuan and stood next to him, "Master Qin , although even if my child is a monkey, I will love it from the bottom of my heart, but it is obvious that Mr. Qin’s fatherly heart has blinded Mr. Qin, and you can tell such nonsense!"

Princess Zhenli echoed: "Master Qin! Could it be that this princess is also fooling around? It was clear that your son pounced on him first. He looked like a hungry wolf pounced on his prey. Otherwise, this princess would not have regarded him as a human being." You want to bully this princess’s disciple!”

As she said that, Princess Zhenli knelt down and took a few steps: "Grandmother and uncle, Zhenli was frightened by this little thief before she left the palace. How could Zhenli dare to choose a husband in the future? Zhenli You might as well twist your black hair and become a nun!"

The entire hall suddenly echoed with Princess Zhenli's cries.

"Zhenli! You don't have to do this. Mother will cut that little thief without eyes into pieces right now!" the eldest princess said with red eyes.

Although the eldest princess was not the Queen Mother's biological child, she had grown up in front of the Queen Mother since she was a child. The Queen Mother was getting older. Seeing the mother and daughter crying, her heart softened completely. She waved to Princess Zhenli and said kindly: " Zhenli, come to Ai’s house.”

The Queen Mother recognized Princess Zhenli's grievances with just one sentence.

Mr. Qin wiped his sweat. He didn't know how to keep his son. Although this matter had nothing to do with Princess Zhenli and was just a misunderstanding, Princess Zhenli was frightened. How could she be considered responsible? It’s all the responsibility of your own son.

What's more, he never expected that King Qi would be so protective of his calf. Just now he wanted to pass the responsibility to Princess Qi, but unexpectedly kicked the tiger's ass. At this time, he was in a dilemma and had no choice.He looked pleadingly at Yu Qian, who was standing with his sleeves wrapped up in the crowd of onlookers. Unexpectedly, Yu Qian lowered his eyes, as if the matter had nothing to do with him.

Mr. Qin was so anxious that his buttocks were about to smoke!

When the onlookers heard that the "disciple" was Qin Zhen, they all showed expressions of disbelief. Although they thought that it was impossible for the gentle and elegant Qin Zhen to do such a thing, because Princess Zhenli said it with certainty. With his testimony and the Queen Mother's reluctance, no one dared to speak for Qin Zhen.

However, some married women don’t think so. King Qi was such a good person, but he was picked up by a concubine named Yu Qinghuan. The married woman with a daughter of the right age felt like she had several jars of sauerkraut poured into her stomach, and her heart felt sour. Capturing the slightest bit of wind and shadow just now, they began to discuss quietly on the side.

"That Young Master Qin just now was clearly going for the Princess, how could he involve Princess Zhenli?"

"Princess Zhenli is innocent and may be used as a shield by some people."

"Isn't it? A slap can't make a difference. If some people hadn't behaved inappropriately, even Meng Lang's men would not dare to come forward to tease them on such an occasion."

"Being from a lowly background, he naturally doesn't have a good upbringing. This is completely understandable."

"..."

They talked in a low voice. Although the sound was not loud, it was clear enough to penetrate into the ears of everyone present.

Yu Qinghuan knelt on the ground silently, with his back straight, as if the building could not collapse even if it collapsed.

The color of the clothes in her peripheral vision was very light, but it made her feel inexplicably reassured. Even if she was criticized by thousands of people, even if she was wronged by the whole world, this person stood by her side, using his unique warmth to support her who was crumbling.

Before Yu Qinghuan said anything, Changsun Tao spoke first: "Madams, if you have witnessed what happened, please come forward and explain. Although I really want to kill Mr. Qin who dares to snatch a woman from me, but in the end, I He is an educated person who will not wrongly accuse good people for no reason, and of course he will not do such unqualified and uncultivated things as gossiping in private."

The expressions of several ladies changed and they quickly stopped talking.

Unexpectedly, Changsun Tao would not let them go, and his eyes would wander over them one after another, with a scorching temperature that would make people tremble with fear.

"Mrs. Lin, you said that my wife has behaved inappropriately. Have you ever seen her raising a handsome actor in private like you?"

"Mrs. Li, you said that my wife is from a lowly background? May I ask you, what does a second-grade imperial concubine mean in front of her, a first-grade princess?"

"Mrs. Huang, you said that the princess used the innocent Princess Zhenli as a shield. Could it be that you were on the scene at that time and witnessed Mr. Qin's feats? Please tell me everything. If you can't tell me one or two , this king has enough reason to suspect that you deliberately slandered my wife, then we can only act according to the law!"

The emperor's face was grave, but his voice was gentle: "Zhaohua, the matter has not been finalized yet, so don't be impulsive."

"A real man has things to do and things he doesn't do. If today I see my wife being openly aggrieved and does not come out to defend me, will I still deserve a wife? I might as well join the palace as a chamberlain!" Changsun Tao said in a loud voice, "I know exactly what kind of person my wife is. I don't need others to point out. It's best not to do this again. Otherwise, I will knock out her front teeth and sew up her obstructive mouth!"
