Chapter 178 Face (49

Something big happened when I went to court today.

Some time ago, His Royal Highness Prince Qin Chu Chenning was punished to go to Qingzhou for making a mistake, where he accidentally rescued thousands of trapped girls.

Everyone in Shengjing said that His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin had achieved his goal by accident, but no matter what, His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin's heroic deeds had spread throughout Shengjing, and the fact that she was crowned king and granted marriage because of it became a topic of conversation among people.

Lord Xu Yi, the Minister of Justice who was sent to take over the matter, has brought back all the people involved in the case one by one.

In the court, after listening to Xu Yi's report, the court officials talked a lot with different expressions. Some were shocked, some were angry, and some were worried, fearing that the Queen would be soft-hearted towards Prince Duan again.

The empress sat on the throne, looking at the ministers below with an expressionless face, wondering in her heart how to save the face of the royal family.

"My dear ministers, this matter is of great importance. I will give you an explanation." The voice was full of the majesty of the emperor, making it impossible to refute.

The atmosphere in the court suddenly became very heavy. All the court officials knew that Prince Duan Chu Chenming was the mastermind behind this incident. They also knew that the Queen did this to save the royal family's face, but they were afraid that the Queen would feel sorry for her offspring and soften her heart again.

The ministers looked at each other, but no one dared to speak.

"Let's adjourn the court." The Queen waved her hand, her voice full of fatigue and helplessness.

"Yes." The court officials bowed to the queen and left the court.

At this time, only the empress and several princesses were left in the entire hall.

"Rebellious son! What do you want to do?!" The empress on the throne was so angry that she dropped the memorial on the table and looked coldly at Prince Duan who was kneeling on the ground.

Prince Duan Chu Chenming was still kneeling on the ground, arguing, "My mother is clearly framing me. Someone must be jealous of me."

The Queen was so angry that her temples were throbbing. She pointed at Chu Chenming and couldn't help but scold him, "Jealous of you? What is there about you that is worthy of others' jealousy? I didn't ask you to share my worries, but I didn't expect you to dare to do such a treasonous thing!"

Chu Chenming suddenly raised his head, looked directly into the empress's eyes, and said fiercely: "Mother, I also want to share your worries, but you would rather hand over the Ministry of Revenue to my sixth sister and never considered me."

Seeing that she had no intention of repenting and even compared herself with Chu Chenning, the Queen sneered and said, "Sharing my worries? Look at what you have done. You mined iron ore illegally, enslaved innocent people, and took human lives lightly. I think you are simply insane!"

"Mother Queen, you can't just listen to Xu Yi's one-sided story. These evidences are all deliberately framed by someone! If you believe these evidences, you will fall into someone else's trap!"

The queen sneered and lowered her eyes to look through the various charges Xu Yi presented. Chu Chenming, who was still struggling, felt that the laughter seemed to come from the underworld, which made her shudder.

"Old Four, it's not too late to plead guilty and be punished."

The Queen's voice was cold and heartless, as if it was an ultimatum to her.

Chu Chenming raised his head and met Chu Chenning's smiling peach blossom eyes, which were full of contempt and ridicule.

"It's you! It's you who hurt me!" Chu Chenming suddenly jumped up and rushed towards Chu Chenning.

Chu Chenning dodged to the side and spoke in the same frivolous tone as usual, "Don't be angry, Fourth Sister. I really didn't do this. But I heard that the young man of the Qingzhou official gave birth to a daughter for you? I wonder if it's true?"
