The villain who defeated the son of destiny was my father
Chapter 169: What About the Son of Fortune?
Inside the palace, the old emperor's eyes were wide open, and he was furiously smashing everything within his sight.
"Useless! You are all useless! If you can't even do such a small thing, what use do I have for you?"
A group of people knelt on the ground and trembled like sieves.
At this moment, the chief eunuch came in mysteriously from outside and whispered in his ear, "Your Majesty, the Prime Minister has just brought some delicious food for you to taste."
As soon as these words were spoken, the old emperor's anger instantly turned into joy.
"Well, well, well, it is still Qu Aiqing who wins my heart."
He went out in a hurry.
The chief eunuch also followed.
On the way, Feng Lanyue came over in a sedan chair and just saw the backs of the two people leaving.
She knew something was wrong, so she waved everyone away and followed alone.
In a remote house, the old emperor was wolfing down slices of meat in an ice box.
The chief eunuch thoughtfully brought him some sauce, "Your Majesty, please dip it in the sauce."
"How can such a delicious thing be wasted with other things?" The old emperor waved his hands in displeasure.
The eunuch chief put the sauce aside.
Soon, all the meat slices in the ice box entered the old emperor's stomach. He licked his lips with a sense of satisfaction, "Do you know which lucky child the prime minister has captured?"
"I don't know, but I did hear that Prince Li's concubine was skinned and flayed at the wedding banquet today, leaving only bones on her limbs." The eunuch chief replied with his head lowered.
The old emperor was not surprised. "It turned out to be her. But this tastes much better than before. After I ate it, I immediately felt refreshed and my body became lighter."
"If Your Majesty likes it, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future." The eunuch chief held a handkerchief in both hands.
The emperor picked it up casually and wiped the corner of his mouth. "These sons of luck are said to be protected by heaven and can ensure the well-being of all people. If this is the case, then what is the need for me, the emperor, to do?"
"Your Majesty, what are you talking about? The son of destiny, the chosen one? No matter how powerful they are, how can they be better than you, the king of a country and the ruler of all people."
The old emperor threw the handkerchief on the table and sneered, "The chosen ones? Great luck? I want to see, is their luck better, or is my national luck better?"
"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister has already said that you not only have the dragon energy of the emperor, but also carry the destiny of the entire Tianyuan Kingdom. How can those chosen people compare to you?"
"That's right. I have the dragon energy and national destiny with me, and I have the prime minister as my backer. Why should I be afraid of those people with destiny?" The old emperor gradually calmed down.
No matter how powerful these sons of luck are, won’t they eventually become his food?
Why should he be afraid of these things?
As long as the prime minister is there, he can sit firmly on the throne.
The conversation between the master and servant inside shocked the woman who was eavesdropping outside.
Feng Lanyue looked at the ice box in the room in disbelief, and then thought about their conversation, and obviously knew what the old emperor had just eaten?
Thinking of this, she felt nauseous and almost vomited on the spot.
When the two people inside were about to get up and leave, she hurriedly left first.
Feng Lanyue did not go to look for the old emperor again, but returned to the palace first. At the same time, she sent a message to the fifth prince, asking him to come quickly.
After the old emperor had eaten and drunk his fill, he returned to the imperial study.
As soon as he sat down, a eunuch came to report that the Jingzhao Yin was investigating the case of Prince Li's concubine.
"How dare you! This Sima Zheng has nothing better to do than to meddle in my...my son's business." The old emperor was furious and slammed the table.
The chief eunuch said, "Your Majesty, Sima Zheng has always been upright. Since he has intervened in this matter, he will not give up until the truth is revealed. In my opinion, it is better to let the Prime Minister solve this matter. I believe Sima Zheng will not dare to go against the Prime Minister."
"The Prime Minister is very busy and even more tired than I am. Why bother him with such a small matter? I can handle it myself." The old emperor stroked his beard and thought of a good idea. "You go and draft the decree and hand this matter over to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Third Prince to supervise it together, and let Mo Li assist them."
"Slave, let's do it now."
Soon, the chief eunuch took the imperial edict and left the palace.
In the Prime Minister's Mansion, Qu Qingyan, who received the first news, turned his eyes slightly.
She changed into men's clothes and prepared to leave the house.
Before reaching the gate of the mansion, I saw two ragged figures arguing with the gatekeepers.
A familiar voice was heard. Who else could it be but Qu Wenshi and Wen Suhua?
There must be something wrong with these two people coming here.
He strode over, and the guards at the door saw that it was her and greeted her hurriedly.
When Qu Wen saw that it was this brat, she immediately came up to him and said, "Where is the Prime Minister? Hurry up and ask him to come out to see me!"
"My dear brother, could you please do us a favor and pass a message to the prime minister for us? This concerns his daughter. If he doesn't help, our Zhu'er will die." Wen Suhua begged bitterly.
When Qu Qingyan heard this, he knew that they had received news that Qu Xinzhu was injured.
"Why should I help you?" She stepped back with a cold look on her face.
Qu Wenshi cursed angrily, "You black-hearted person, I just asked you to help pass a message, and you dared not agree? I am the mother of the Prime Minister, and I will never let you off easily in the future."
"The prime minister's mother? As far as I know, the prime minister doesn't recognize you as his mother at all. He has severed the mother-son relationship with you. I don't know what kind of prime minister's mother you are?" Qu Qingyan said sarcastically.
Qu Wen was so angry that she pointed at her and kept saying "you you you" for a long time.
Wen Suhua also looked unhappy. "I know we had some minor conflicts in the past, but it's not a big deal. Since you work under the Prime Minister, how dare you offend the Prime Minister's mother?"
Qu Qingyan was too lazy to talk nonsense with them, and directly said to the guard at the door: "Don't let them in!"
After saying this, she left in a swagger, regardless of the two men's expressions as if they wanted to eat her up.
The guards lined up in a row, blocking the way in front and staring at them eagerly.
Seeing this, Qu Wenshi and Wen Suhua knew they couldn't get in and could only choose to wait outside.
"Mom, Zhu'er's limbs have been cut off and there is no flesh left. I'm afraid she will become a disabled person in the future." Wen Suhua cried and was very sad.
Qu Wenshi also wiped her tears, "I don't know who the bastard was, who actually treated our Zhu'er so harshly."
"The palace is now heavily guarded. We can't even go in to see Zhu'er. I am such a failed mother and I am not worthy of being Zhu'er's mother." Wen Suhua felt very regretful.
Qu Wenshi advised: "Suhua, how can you be blamed for this? If you want to blame someone, blame it on this damned fate and that unfilial son."
"mother……"
The mother and daughter cried sadly.
