Quick Wear: The Gold Digger Was Influenced by Love Brain

In a blink of an eye, it was Mo Ruyi's fourth birthday.

The birthday banquet for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was originally supposed to be hosted by the Queen, but since Concubine Liu Weiyue was the Crown Prince's biological mother, the Emperor granted Liu Weiyue special permission to host this event.

Liu Weiyue started preparing a month in advance.

On the birthday, the palace was decorated with lights and colorful lanterns, and it was very lively. Civil and military officials were also invited to the East Palace to attend the birthday banquet.

When all the officials arrived, many of them discovered that the seat next to the emperor was empty, and they couldn't help but whisper to each other.

"Why isn't the Queen coming to such an important occasion today?"

"I heard that the Queen has been bedridden ever since she encountered the coup. I didn't expect that she still hasn't recovered after so long!"

"Isn't he still sick? He just doesn't want to come, or can't come?"

"What does this mean, Grand Master?"

"The Emperor dotes on the Imperial Concubine too much, and even intends to go beyond the Empress. It is against the rules to raise the Crown Prince under the Imperial Concubine's lap. Now he is letting the Imperial Concubine to organize the Crown Prince's birthday. Isn't this a slap in the face of the Empress? Isn't he taking the Empress seriously at all?"

"The imperial concubine is too overbearing!"

"What a scourge to the nation!"

"No wonder the memorial we wrote asking the Emperor to hold a beauty pageant and recruit concubines was suppressed and never received a response. Every time we brought it up at court, the Emperor ignored it. It turns out it was all for the Imperial Concubine!"

"The emperor is already twenty-five, but he only has one son. If this continues, I'm afraid the country will be unstable!"

An official with white hair suddenly left his seat, knelt in the center of the hall, and said loudly and uprightly, "I beg the Imperial Concubine to stop causing trouble for the Emperor and persuade the Emperor to take concubines as soon as possible, so that more women can enter the palace to give birth to children for the Emperor and ensure the stability of our dynasty!"

The noisy room suddenly became quiet.

Liu Weiyue was still holding her son in her arms, with her head lowered so that no one could tell what she was thinking.

Mo Huaiche was teasing his son with a smile on his face just a moment ago, but at this moment, his face was so gloomy as if he was going to make someone bleed to death in the next second.

In fact, he was going to do that.

He suddenly stood up, pulled out a knife from the guard's waist, and pointed it at the minister kneeling in the center.

"Grandmaster, who gave you the courage to cause trouble on my prince's birthday?"

Hua Rong said fearlessly, "Even if the emperor wants to kill me today, I will risk my life to persuade him. The emperor's offspring is related to the foundation of the country, and we can't be careless!"

"You've neglected the Queen for the sake of the Imperial Concubine, and you've even refused to participate in the selection. You're really foolish!"

Mo Huaiche's expression became increasingly cold.

Liu Weiyue held down Mo Huaiche's restless hand and shook her head at him.

"Today is Fuer's birthday, it's not appropriate to see blood."

Mo Huaiche frowned, but still put the knife back.

Only then did Liu Weiyue look at the people below the stage.

"Grandmaster, what an impassioned speech you have made. People who don't know you might really think that you love your country and the people so much, and that you are wholeheartedly thinking about the Emperor and the entire Shun Dynasty."

"But as far as I know, the Grand Tutor's son is a well-known playboy in the capital. He always rapes women and this time he even caused a death."

"If you are really so righteous, why not first hand over the son you secretly pulled out of the prison, sacrifice your own son for the greater good, and give justice to those women who were persecuted by him."

"After all, a person who is too selfish may not be able to look at national affairs impartially and may easily make mistakes!"

"Oh, right."

"Although Grand Tutor is old, he is still strong and his love for beauties is even higher than when he was young. He accepted the dancer that the Left Prime Minister gave you just half a month ago, and you are here to 'risk your life to persuade' him so soon. His determination to die for a beauty really moved me!"

Hua Rong's eyes were red with anger.

"You witch, stop talking nonsense!"

Liu Weiyue said calmly, "Whether it is nonsense or not, let the Dali Temple investigate and we will know."

Mo Huaiche ordered, "Come here, go and investigate what the imperial concubine said. If this is true, colluding with court officials, forcibly seizing a woman, and causing death, each of these crimes is punishable by death!"

Hua Rong fell to the ground, looking at Liu Weiyue in disbelief, as if he didn't understand. These things were obviously very private matters, so how did she know about them!

Not only was he shocked, but other officials were also extremely shocked!

This development was something they had not expected!

Yun Chongwen came out to plead for Hua Rong.

If this matter is really investigated, he will not get any benefit if he is the one who colluded with Huarong.

I'm sweating profusely!

"Your Majesty, the Grand Tutor is already very old, and he must be confused, which is why he caused trouble today. After all, he is the Crown Prince's teacher. For the Crown Prince's sake, let's forget about this matter."

Other officials who had originally planned to teach Liu Weiyue a lesson today and take the opportunity to force the emperor to take concubines together with other ministers so that their daughters could be put into the harem, temporarily gave up this dangerous idea and came out to plead for the Grand Tutor.

"The Grand Master was also confused for a moment!"

"I beg the Emperor to forgive him this time, considering that he has worked diligently for many years and has made great contributions to the court. Even if he has no merits, he has made great efforts!"

Mo Huaiche, however, had no intention of letting the truth slip.

"Go check it out!"

"No one is allowed to leave until the matter is investigated thoroughly today!"

I do not know how long it has been.

The guards brought up the Grand Tutor's son, the dancer in the Grand Tutor's mansion, and a series of witnesses.

"Your Majesty, everyone has arrived."

Hua Rong's son Hua Ming was just a good-for-nothing. The first time he was escorted to the palace, he knew that his murder had been exposed. He was so scared that he peed his pants and knelt down in front of Hua Rong to beg.

"Dad, Dad, I was wrong. I will never dare to snatch a woman again. I didn't expect that she would be so stubborn and would rather die than obey me. I really didn't kill her on purpose!"

"Dad, please save your son. He doesn't want to die!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the whole audience was in an uproar, as if they had not expected that the son of the Grand Tutor was such a fool and would confess without being asked!

Huarong seemed to have aged ten years in an instant.

His eyes suddenly rolled back and he fainted.

Yun Chongwen took the opportunity to say, "Your Majesty, the Grand Tutor is old and cannot bear the blow. After all, he has worked hard and made great contributions. Please be lenient with him and wait until today is over before interrogating him again."

Liu Weiyue came down at some point and came in front of Hua Rong. She seemed to have accidentally stepped on Hua Rong's fingers and even crushed them.

"Oh, I didn't see Master Hua's finger. I'm so sorry."

"Why did you faint?"

"The Emperor has said that no one is allowed to leave until the interrogation is complete. I want to go back and rest early."

"Xiaoyu, go get some chili powder and a brush."

Xiaoyu acted quickly and got the chili powder in no time.

Liu Weiyue squatted down and sprinkled chili powder on Huarong's face.

She saw Huarong's nose twitching and his eyes rolling, but he seemed to be holding his breath and didn't want to wake up, so she rubbed his nose with the brush again.

Huarong's nose twitched and his face turned red.

Yun Chongwen finally couldn't help it and shouted angrily, "My Lady, the Grand Master is an official of the imperial court after all. How can a concubine like you tease him?"

"You are doing this too much..."

"Ah-"

Before Yun Chongwen could finish his words, a loud sneeze was heard.

He looked down stiffly.

The sneeze came from Hua Rong's mouth. Even if he had a thicker skin than a city wall, he knew he couldn't pretend anymore. He opened his eyes and stared resentfully at the woman who had ruined his reputation and made him lose all his dignity.
