Does your husband only love his wife?I turned around and left the house to marry a villain
Chapter 698 Broken Bench
Xie Jinyun frowned slightly, seeing through Chen Qingtang's thoughts at a glance: "You want to use my eldest brother's 'death', use yourself as bait, and invite He Yuanzhou to join the game to ruin his reputation?"
Chen Qingtang stood up, knelt in front of Xie Jinyun and said, "I have no other choice. This is a permanent solution. Your Majesty, please take a look."
She handed Xie Jinyun the letter that He Yuanzhou had sent to the mansion yesterday. Xie Jinyun took the letter and spread it out. She immediately slammed the table in anger and said, "My eldest brother is not dead yet, and he dares to disrespect you, sister-in-law. If he is really dead, wouldn't he dare to do it openly?"
At this time, two eunuchs supported Gu Changning out of the cabinet. Gu Changning said, "The customs of Chen are open, unlike Yan. Men and women pay attention to reputation and prestige. Uncles can marry widowed sisters-in-law, fathers-in-law can marry daughters-in-law, and subjects give wives and concubines to each other. Even the ruler of Chen has forced his stepmother to marry him. It is not uncommon for a minister like He Yuanzhou to woo a noblewoman who is about to become a widow. Now that he has just taken over Chen, the laws in Chen are not yet perfect. He Yuanzhou is taking advantage of this opportunity. Even if Madam Xie makes this letter public, people will only say that Lord He is infatuated and that Madam Xie is ungrateful."
The color on Chen Qingtang's face instantly disappeared.
Xie Jinyun's face was extremely cold: "Since Chen State is already a slave of a conquered country, Chen State's laws should naturally be based on Yan State. Chen State's people and noble families must also abide by Yan State's etiquette and laws. The reunification of the two countries is the long-term plan for stabilizing the overall situation, but..."
Xie Jinyun looked at Chen Qingtang and said, "You only need to use the fake death game once. After all, He Yuanzhou is not an ordinary opponent. He will use the fake death game to seize my eldest sister-in-law. Then you will end up losing more than you gain."
Chen Qingtang sat on the ground helplessly.
"Help the lady up quickly." Xie Jinyun said.
Bai Lu and Nanny Yuan walked forward and helped Chen Qingtang up from the ground.
Chen Qingtang sat on the chair, her chest filled with anger: "Please tell me, Madam, what should I do next?"
Gu Changning looked at Jiang Huai and motioned Jiang Huai to hand over the memorial presented by Xie Jinyu. Jiang Huai immediately handed the memorial in his hand to Xie Jinyu.
Xie Jinyun opened the memorial, which contained content about He Yuanzhou's habits after he entered politics. He was such a terrible person... that even her second brother could not find any fault with him. During the time he took over the Supervisory Office, he was honest and loved the people, refused to be corrupt and accept bribes, and even helped several civilians to redress several cases. In the hearts of the people of Yan State, he was a reincarnated Justice Bao. After arriving in Chen State, he still used the same method, refused to accept bribes from Chen State official Zong Shi, was dedicated to the people, and built up momentum everywhere in Chen State. Now among the people of Chen State, this Supervisory Office envoy from Yan State has gradually become familiar to them.
After reading the contents of the memorial, Xie Jinyun was secretly shocked: "He Yuanzhou is paving the way for himself."
"Heh." Gu Changning sneered, "He knows that he is a child of a poor family, has no power behind him, and that the high-ranking officials and noble families hate him. He wants to live longer, and the common people will undoubtedly be his best backing. Once his reputation is known everywhere, he will think that I dare not touch him."
He threw out another memorial, which was presented by He Yuanzhou: "This person can no longer be kept."
After hearing what Gu Changning said, Chen Qingtang secretly breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Xie Jinyun.
Xie Jinyun said: "You want to break this knife, but he now has his own power. With his integrity, he can get the support of many ordinary people."
"Jin'er, the general is the one who is wholeheartedly for the people and is honest, but someone fabricated the charge of bribery out of thin air. If you want to accuse someone of a crime, you can always find a pretext. If others can fabricate, so can we!
After Gu Changning finished speaking, Chen Qingtang felt an indescribable surprise and joy in his heart.
It turns out that the emperor has always trusted them.
"Show me the letter." Gu Changning said.
Xie Jinyun quickly showed Gu Changning the letter that He Yuanzhou wrote to Chen Qingtang.
After reading the letter, Gu Changning sneered, "This matter is easy to handle. Madam Xie should prepare a gift. This gift must be worth a fortune, but it must not give the other party any evidence. It must also make the other party think that Madam Xie has compromised with him."
Xie Jinyun looked back at Chen Qingtang and asked, "What do you think, sister-in-law?"
Chen Qingtang said: "Let me think about it, there must be a solution that will satisfy both of us."
"Okay, I'll only give you three days to think clearly about what this gift that can convict He Yuanzhou should be."
"Yes." Chen Qingtang stood up and left the palace.
On the way out of the palace, Chen Qingtang kept thinking about Gu Changning's words.
If she gave gold to He Yuanzhou, He Yuanzhou would definitely be able to see through her thoughts at a glance.
If she brought a priceless pearl hairpin and precious jade to He Yuanzhou's house, He Yuanzhou would think that this was her response to his invitation to favor her.
She had to make He Yuanzhou relax his vigilance against her, and at the same time find a way to frame him for a crime and send him to jail, which was undoubtedly difficult.
But no matter how difficult it is, it won't be more difficult than Xie Ci's current situation.
The coachman saw Chen Qingtang coming out of the palace gate and drove the carriage slowly forward. Nanny Yao helped her get into the carriage, but the footstool suddenly broke and Chen Qingtang fell out of the carriage.
Nanny Yao screamed, opened her arms and hugged Chen Qingtang, and both of them fell to the ground.
Several maids and servants came running over, shouting in worry, "Madam, are you okay?"
"Madame, madam..."
"Mrs. Chen." He Yuanzhou's voice suddenly came amid the noisy voices.
Chen Qingtang opened her eyes and looked at the group of servants surrounding her. Surprisingly, she saw He Yuanzhou, who looked nervous, in the crowd.
He squatted down and held out his hand to her.
Chen Qingtang shuddered suddenly, immediately shook off He Yuanzhou's hand, sat up from the ground, and then shouted at He Yuanzhou: "Stay away from me, don't touch me."
Madam Yao supported Chen Qingtang and said, "Madam, how are you? Are you feeling unwell?"
"You fell. I'll ask someone to go to the palace to invite the imperial physician." He Yuanzhou ignored Chen Qingtang's anger and refusal, and arranged for someone to go to the palace to invite the imperial physician for Chen Qingtang.
But Chen Qingtang didn't want the queen to worry about her, so she stopped He Yuanzhou from doing that: "No need, don't call the imperial physician, I'm fine, the nanny just protected me, I'm not feeling unwell anywhere."
"But you..."
"Master He, thank you for your kindness. I'm fine." Chen Qingtang rejected him firmly. Then, she looked at the footstool and frowned, saying, "Mammy, please get in the carriage first."
"Wait." He Yuanzhou said, "How could the stool suddenly break? Madam Chen's identity is quite sensitive in Chen State. General Xie is a hero who led the Yan army to defeat Chen State. I am afraid that someone tampered with Madam's stool to avenge the general. This matter is very serious. I must investigate it thoroughly."
Chen Qingtang's body trembled violently. Before she could formulate a plan, He Yuanzhou came up with one first. What did he want to do?
