The Rebirth of the Deposed Empress

Chapter 158 If you can’t sit still, go to the backyard to chop wood!

I thought Hua Jingqian would be tactful, but I didn't expect him to actually walk straight towards me.

"Brother, Jing'er."

Hua Wujing felt like there was a fly in his mouth, and just as he was about to be rude to him, he was pulled back by his father.

When he turned around, he saw his father winking at him.

Don't be reckless in the palace.

Hua Wujing curled his lips, but ultimately did not speak.

Seeing that Hua Jingqian was still there, Hua Rongyu didn't want to let so many colleagues laugh at him.

Seeing that he couldn't respond to the word "big brother", he just laughed politely twice and pulled Hua Wujing away.

Looking at Hua Rongyu's hurried steps, Hua Jingqian's eyes were dark and full of viciousness.

This expression actually pleased others.

"Hey, Minister Hua, it has come to this, and you are still shamelessly sticking to others?"

Hua Jingqian looked at the person who spoke. He was a retainer of Sun Ruhui's father. If he had not married Sun Ruhui, he would probably not have been able to take the position of Minister.

Therefore, this person has always been very dissatisfied with him. Even though the two of them now hold equal official positions, he still tries to trip him up at every turn, both openly and covertly.

Hua Jingqian became displeased when he heard him speak sarcastically.

"What the matter between me and my brother has to do with you!"

When the man saw him like this, he realized something and asked:

"You don't know yet, do you? Didn't your mother tell you? You have already changed your father! Hahahaha."

The man felt happy after saying this, and then he just smiled and left regardless of Hua Jingqian's reaction.

Although Hua Jingqian was unhappy at the time, he did not take his words to heart. It was not until he attended court that he discovered that even the emperor's occasional look at him was not right, and then he began to take it seriously.

This matter had already spread throughout the capital, and it was easy to find out.

Hua Jingqian quickly figured out the whole story, and then his mind was shocked by this sudden news.

After suppressing his anger for a whole day, he just returned home and saw that the old lady was still living so comfortably. He immediately threw aside his filial piety, rushed forward angrily, and kicked over the small coffee table.

"What's going on between you and Hua Yuzhong?"

The old lady was frightened by his appearance. She half sat up from the recliner and asked stutteringly:

"You, how did you know that?"

"You did such a despicable thing, and the whole capital has heard about it! It's hard for me not to know about it!"

The old lady looked at him guiltily several times, her heart pounding.

She defended herself:

"I am doing this for your own good! Do you want to be a servant's son for the rest of your life? Why are you getting angry at me?"

Hua Jingqian would not listen to her high-sounding explanations. Over the years, when he was in the general's mansion, he also heard servants talking about how Liu Rumei drugged Hua Zhukong to get him.

She went to Hua Yuzhong only because she was afraid that Hua Zhukong would find out the truth of that night and divorce her, so she found another man to have a child!

"For my own good? You just want to marry Hua Zhukong as General's wife! You've made me the laughing stock of the whole capital and the subject of gossip! How can I hold my head up high?"

Hua Jingqian gritted his teeth and glared at her fiercely.

The old lady didn't expect Hua Jingqian to dig up these old stories, and she suddenly felt ashamed.

Anger welled up in her heart, and the old lady stood up from the recliner and cursed:

"You ungrateful bastard! How dare you talk to your mother like that!"

She scolded so harshly that she even felt like beating and scolding her servants. As she was scolding, she raised her hand and slapped Hua Jingqian in the face.

Hua Jingqian was already angry, so how could he just stand there and let her slap him?

He frowned and used his arm to push away the old lady's hand.

Not wanting to argue with the old lady, he turned and left.

Hua Jingqian's attack caused the old lady to stagger and she stepped on the gravel and fell to the ground.

The back of his head hit the ground hard, and the sound made Hua Jingqian look back.

Seeing the old lady lying on the ground, Hua Jingqian frowned and turned around and walked over.

Then I saw the old lady staring with her eyes wide open, with more and more blood coming out of the back of her head.

Hua Jingqian was so flustered that his legs felt weak. He quickly squatted down to help the old lady up, only to find that the back of his head had hit the broken tea set, and the broken porcelain pieces had penetrated deeply into it.

Hua Jingqian used his trembling hand to feel the old lady's breathing, then suddenly pushed the old lady out of his arms, and pushed himself to the ground.

His face turned pale and beads of sweat the size of beans covered his cheeks.

After regaining some of his senses, he quickly got up from the ground and tried to find someone to clean up the situation.

As a result, when he turned around, he saw Sun Ruhui standing at the gate of the courtyard, staring at the old lady on the ground with wide eyes, and Lin Siyu standing beside her with her eyelashes slightly lowered.

The Hua family army had a day off today, so Hua Rongyu and his son returned to Duke Dingguo's Mansion after the morning court session.

Knowing that Hua Wu Ke always stayed in Xuerong Hall with Hua Zhukong at this time in the past, the two of them also walked towards Xuerong Hall together.

Hua Wu Ke was making tea, and there were already four cups of tea on the table.

After Hua Wujing greeted his grandfather, he sat down on the chair, took the teacup and drank it all in one gulp.

"I'm telling you! I was so pissed off when I was in court this morning! That Hua Jingqian is such a shameless person that he even came up to say hello!"

"Do you think he's crazy?"

After adding more tea to his cup, Hua Wu Ke said:

"Brother, just ignore him. Why are you still angry?"

Hua Wujing frowned and said speechlessly:

"I didn't want to pay attention to him, but as soon as he stood there, people's eyes started to focus on us, which made me furious!"

Seeing that his two daughters were always talking about Hua Jingqian, Hua Rongyu winked at them, asking them not to say these things in front of Hua Zhukong.

Unfortunately, the two of them were like blind men and ignored him completely.

Instead, Hua Zhukong gave him a look.

"Okay, stop staring. Your eyeballs are going to fall out."

Seeing this, Hua Rongyu no longer cared about Hua Zhukong, and spoke directly to the brother and sister with a stern face:

"You're causing me so much trouble every day! Why do you keep talking about these insignificant things? Are you free?"

Hua Wujing is used to being scolded and is fearless.

"It's a day off today, so don't you have some free time?"

Hua Rongyu was almost pissed off to death by this little bastard and raised her hand to give him a slap on the face.

"You bastard! If you can't sit still, go chop wood in the backyard!"

Hua Wujing dodged upon seeing this, curled his lips and said:

"I'm not going."

They were both martial artists, and when they quarreled, their voices were so powerful that Hua Zhukong felt a headache.

Hua Zhukong interrupted them and said:

"I heard from the servants in the mansion that there are jugglers coming from the capital today. Is Jing'er interested? Why don't we take Sui Sui to have a look during the day off?"
