Quick Wear of Pregnant and Soft Beauty

Chapter 16 The Domineering and Indifferent General × Substitute Marry Prime Minister Jin 16

"Madam is in a coma caused by overwork and lack of energy and blood. I will give her an injection and she will wake up in a while."

Zhao Yin wasn't pretending this time, she was indeed too tired.

When Bitao was changing Zhao Yin's clothes, she accidentally saw the bruises on her knees and was so distressed that she burst into tears.

Huo Yan stood aside and saw the same thing, and his heart throbbed.

He clearly understood that Yinyin was implicated by him, if it weren't for the fact that his queen would not specifically target her.

"Bitao, what does your young lady like?"

Bitao raised her hand to wipe away her tears, "Miss likes sweets and soft animals."

The butler walked in and reported, "General, His Majesty and the Queen have sent people to deliver things, saying they are to replenish Madam's health."

Hitting a stick and giving a sweet date is the most common method used by the emperor. Huo Yan was very familiar with this method since he grew up in the palace and the general's mansion.

However, when they used it on Zhao Yin, Huo Yan found it particularly unbearable.

"Just throw it into the warehouse."

The housekeeper was startled. The master seemed angry. His eyes quickly glanced inside, and he couldn't see anything at all behind the thick bead curtain.

Is it because the lady was injured in the palace?

Of course Huo Yan was angry. He had previously said that he would take good care of Zhao Yin, but in the end, the person who turned around was injured and bullied because of him.

"Bitao, take care of your young lady." Huo Yan strode out of the room.

He stood in the courtyard and said, "Wu Er, reveal the information collected previously about Deng Wenhan's robbery of his wife and his use of servants to commit murder to the censor."

"Wu San, take the governor of Beijing to the village to find Zhao Mingzhu."

Why did the queen secretly make Zhizi before? He didn't bother to argue with her for the sake of the emperor and the prince. But she should never, never touch Zhao Yin.

Once a person has something he wants to protect, he will have sharp horns that cannot be touched.

The news that Zhao Yin was forced to kneel by the queen made many officials think that the prime minister might have been rejected by the emperor, so they called her into the palace just a few days after their wedding to establish their authority.

In the Prime Minister's Mansion, Zhao Mingxuan was still lying on the bed, knowing in his heart that His Majesty still valued him.

So it’s the Queen’s own intention?

Zhao Yin has never entered the palace before, so there is no way to offend the queen.

Zhao Mingxuan thought that he had accidentally heard that the queen did not like Huo Yan. Could it be that his family Yinyin was implicated?

"Master, good news, the capital government office found the eldest lady and Mrs. Li in a villa, and they are on their way back."

Zhao Mingxuan almost got up from the bed, "Hurry up and send someone to pick her up."

That night, Zhao Mingzhu was picked up by a servant at home.

The eldest lady was still grounded. When she came back, she was taken directly to the old lady's yard and made to kneel down.

"I heard that the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion has been found!"

"Really, it's been a week, right? Where did you find it?"

"I have a brother who works as an errand in the government office. He said that the eldest lady encountered bandits when she was going to incense, and she took the old lady from the Duke's mansion and got lost with the servants."

"The old lady was ill, and the eldest lady didn't dare to leave, so she never came back."

"What about the other servants? Won't they come back and tell the news?" Some people don't believe it, but they are not fools. How could such a coincidence happen?

"They are all dead. It is lucky that the eldest lady and the old lady of the Duke's Mansion survived."

Everyone was silent. It seemed that it was true that so many servants had all suffered accidents.

As for how the eldest lady and the old lady escaped from the bandits, no one knows.

Everyone can only guess.

When General Wu San reported the news, he lamented, "My subordinates went too late, and all those people were silenced by the guards of the Duke's Mansion."

What a cruel person.

Originally, they planned to say that Zhao Mingzhu fell seriously ill on the way and was unable to move. The horseman sent to deliver the message was unfortunately killed by gangsters on the way and could not deliver the message.

As a result, Huo Yan intervened, and the Duke's Mansion was afraid that someone would implicate him by silently talking, so they simply destroyed all the corpses and wiped out all traces.

However, after this incident, Zhao Mingzhu's reputation was not much better.

The family that was originally planning to wait for her to come back to propose marriage has given up the idea. Status and background are important, but a woman's reputation is even more important.

After all, she is not the only one who can choose noble ladies in the court.

It was already afternoon when Zhao Yin woke up. She had a particularly good night's sleep and was full of energy.

"Miss, are you awake?" Bi Tao has been sitting not far away watching.

Zhao Yin saw her eyes were slightly red and said amusedly: "Why are you crying again? Little cat, I'm fine."

Bi Tao rubbed her eyes in embarrassment. She was two years older than Zhao Yin, and she had treated Zhao Yin like her own sister since she was a child. I always get excited and care about things that happen to her.

"Miss, are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

Zhao Yin sat up and stretched with his hands, "I'm a little hungry and want to eat something sweet."

The food in the small kitchen is still warm, just in case Zhao Yin wakes up and wants to eat. Bi Tao came in with a bowl of sweet soup, and the other maids behind her put the food on the table one after another.

Zhao Yin's legs were still bruised and it was difficult to walk, so she could only read the script in her room.

"Miss, the eldest lady has been found."

Zhao Yin stopped turning the book and listened to Bitao telling her about the news outside.

She didn't believe that there were any bandits who appeared out of nowhere, just to protect Zhao Mingzhu and the Duke's Mansion.

Zhao Mingzhu wants to retire and choose a good son-in-law, but it is probably not possible at the moment. Her reputation will be in the way. Even if she marries the prime minister's daughter and becomes his wife, she must carefully consider it.

I don't know if Zhao Mingzhu will regret it, but she probably won't. She has always been arrogant and arrogant based on her family background and her reputation as a talented woman.

And this is exactly what Zhao Yin needs. A conceited enemy is easier to deal with than a cautious enemy.

Zhao Mingzhu, in the previous life you took away my husband and killed my children. Now it's just a disgrace to your reputation, and wait, your retribution is yet to come.

That night, Huo Yan was handling affairs in the army and sent a guard to tell Zhao Yin that he would not be coming back.

Zhao Yin's master and servant both breathed a sigh of relief at the same time and could go to bed early to rest.

The next day, in the court hall, the imperial censor wrote a memorial to impeach Deng Wenhan, the young master of Deng Guogong's mansion, for snatching his wife and letting his servants commit the murder.

The emperor glanced at him and said, "Deng Guogong, do you know about this?"

When Duke Deng heard this, he immediately knelt down. He knew that he must have offended someone before he was shaken off. "Your Majesty is aware that I am busy with official duties every day, and I really don't know what my traitor is doing."

"Deng Guogong said it lightly, and he shied away without knowing a word. Please note, whose name and power are you relying on?"

Deng Guogong secretly cursed the young man, the Minister of Household Affairs, in his heart. He had never offended him normally, so why did he interfere at this time?

"I second my opinion. As an important minister in the court, you should set an example. You can't even manage your family well, how to assist your majesty in dealing with political dignitaries." The Minister of Rites followed.

"I disagree. Duke Deng is old and has limited energy. It is understandable that he does not know."

Huo Yan snorted coldly, "The emperor's crimes are the same as those of the common people, and officials should do the same."

The rest of the people who originally wanted to say a few good words for Deng Guogong felt that something was wrong. Huo Yan did not participate in any other party fights except those related to the military camp.

He suddenly spoke, which made people feel strange and a little wary.

The emperor was most annoyed by the quarrels among these people. They all said that the women in the harem had many things to do, and the men in the court also had many things to do.

"General Huo is right. This matter will be handed over to Jingzhao for perfunctory verification and then handled together."

Deng Guogong knelt on the ground, his back was soaked with sweat, and he thought something was wrong.

At this time, the Queen's Palace also learned the news.
