After the zombies traveled through time, they were tricked by the villain into becoming a stepmother

"Xiao Qi, what's wrong with you?"

Pei Changjing sneakily moved in front of his sister and asked in a very low voice. Chu Daidai took two steps back, looked at him and then at Shen Xiaowu, and finally gave up.

"Xiao Liu, I don't think I quite understood what he said just now, what should I do?"

Mrs. Chu was actually a little embarrassed about doing something that was tantamount to admitting that her brain was not good enough, so she lowered her voice very low.

The emperor saw the brother and sister biting each other's ears openly in the Golden Palace. This made him so angry that he had to speak out to divert the attention of others and try not to let others pay too much attention to this pair of bastards!

"Lord Qi, you just said that the foot-binding women were all brought from Yunzhou at great expense?"

"Your Majesty, it is indeed true. Yunzhou Prefecture is located in the south and is the largest prefecture closest to the Great Sheng Dynasty. The literary style there is also relatively the best.

Of course, they also admired the beauty of the three-inch golden lotus. Almost all the ladies there had their feet bound. I also asked people for a long time before I decided to spend a lot of money to find a skilled maid from Yunzhou Prefecture. "

After all, he had worked under the emperor for so many years that he could understand his temper. Although his king was narrow-minded, he was definitely not a tyrant.

Moreover, in some ways, Emperor Yanping could even be praised as a wise ruler. For example, he never got angry because some of his ministers admired the literary style of the Great Sheng Dynasty, and he never punished some people for liking the weapons and horses of the Great Yuan Dynasty.

This is an emperor with his own personality, a human emperor. And now, he began to show the rebellious and unreasonable side of human nature.

"Really?"

His eyes turned to the Fourth Prince, who was particularly quiet today and hadn't said a single word of nonsense.

"Fourth Brother, why don't you come and tell me. Since when did women with bound feet become considered beautiful in your fiefdom?"

Although the emperor had never seen the so-called three-inch golden lotus with his own eyes, just based on the miserable scene that Xiaoqi had just described, he could not imagine with his eyes closed how beautiful the broken feet could be.

"Father, I, your son, don't know either!"

Prince Qing Pei Changyu, who was named by his biological father, stood out with a gloomy face and glared at the silly seventh sister unhappily. However, Chu Daidai, who was communicating with his biological brother, did not see it.

"You don't know? How could you not know anything about what's going on in your fiefdom?"

The emperor's voice was colder than before. Prince Qing cursed in his heart before he had to bow and apologize.

"Father, please forgive me. I have indeed heard about it. But it is their private affairs. Even if I am a prince of that fiefdom, I cannot interfere in how other people raise their daughters, right? How can you blame me for this?"

His forced argument made some sense, and his father nodded in agreement.

"Oh, you are right. It is not your fault. Then I can't help but be a little curious and ask you, my dear ministers. How did you know that the three-inch golden lotus is popular in Yunzhou Prefecture?"

As soon as the question was asked, Shounanbo, who was kneeling in front, kowtowed and apologized.

"Your Majesty, please allow me to report. Yes, it was my good-for-nothing eldest son who went to Yunzhou two years ago and found that the men there were elegant and the women were well-mannered. So, he came back and talked to two or three friends about it..."

"Oh, so it's you?"

The emperor's smile can mean life or death.

"You are a noble general who is idle at home, but you seem to have a lot of leisure time? You have even learned to appreciate elegant things like those literati?"

Having been embroiled in conspiracies and intrigues all his life, the emperor didn't even need to think too much to immediately sense that something was wrong.

The prince, the generals, and the civil officials were quietly linked together by an inconspicuous thing. He was familiar with this operation! Wasn't this what he did when he was young?

The fourth brother is very good. Are you trying to emulate your father?

But I sold myself in the beginning, over and over again! What are you doing now? You are not willing to ruin your own body, but you are willing to ruin the bodies of those innocent women?

The smile in the emperor's eyes slowly turned into a bloodthirsty one. It was unknown whether others were scared or not by the murderous intent that was coming towards him, but Shou Nanbo really cried this time.

Originally, their family was not well-liked by the current emperor. At the beginning, they supported the second prince, Prince Zhou. Who would have known that the one who would eventually take the throne would be Prince Qin, who was regarded as the father-in-law by all the people in the court?

But this emperor was so narrow-minded that he didn't even look like an emperor. Those people who didn't support him in the beginning were either dealt with by him on pretexts or behaved like the Hong family, who had to keep their tails between their legs.

After so much waiting and anticipation, they finally waited until the new round of succession competition began. This time, they were extremely cautious and waited for a long time, not daring to place another bet.

Until the second prince and the crown prince were defeated, and the fifth prince, Prince Rui, was deposed. When Prince Ning had no children, Prince Kang was not well-received, and Prince Xuan was incompetent, all the treasures were placed on His Royal Highness Prince Qing. But now, it seems that things are about to fall apart again?

Obviously, the group of ministers he had connected with were all low-profile, so how did Princess Rongchang suddenly appear? What was wrong with the feng shui of his ancestral tomb that made him so unlucky to run into this evil star?

Prince Qing is still denying it.

"Father, I really don't know anything. During this period, I have been following your orders and studying with my brothers. I have absolutely no thoughts that should not have been there!"

With the previous experiences of Pei Lao Er and Pei Lao Wu as examples, he would not be so bold as to think that his own father would be reluctant to take action against him, Pei Lao Si.

Fortunately, he was not the one who had initiated this matter. It was all done by those who wanted to rely on him. He just didn't explicitly refuse. Now that the truth has been revealed, as long as he refuses to admit it, he will have nothing to do with the Prince Qing's Mansion!

He is so stubborn, maybe he can fool others, but can he fool his own father?

The emperor was too lazy to talk nonsense with him.

"Take Prince Qing to Changchun Palace first. Concubine De said she missed him a few days ago. Let them have a good chat."

"Yes."

Chief Steward Wei walked up to the prince and waved his whisk.

"Your Highness Prince Qing, please."

The posture is respectful and the tone is irresistible.

"Father, I really..."

"Prince Qing, are you going to disobey my order?"

The voice was cold, almost smiling.

At this time he was not a father, he was the emperor.

Now no one dared to breathe.

"I dare not! I will take my leave."

Under the emperor's mighty power, the violent Pei Laosi also admitted his mistake very sincerely, and followed behind Chief Steward Wei and left quickly, looking quite well-behaved.
