The Legitimate Daughter of the Prosperous Medical Fragrance Will Not Marry

Chapter 24 Sweet mouth

 “The emperor has arrived, the queen has arrived, Concubine Yu has arrived—!”

 The eunuch's shouts suddenly sounded outside the palace.

Almost at the same time, everyone who had just stood up knelt on the ground again.

“Long live the emperor, long live the emperor! May the queen live a thousand years! Concubine Yu may live a thousand years!”

Emperor Yongchang walked into the hall accompanied by the queen, raised his hand and said, "Everyone, get up."

Everyone was slowly getting up when they heard a woman's clear and tactful voice of doubt again, "Oh, what's going on?"

Fan Qingyao, who was kneeling in the crowd, looked at the charming and graceful woman, his eyes gradually turned cold.

 She is probably the only one in Xiliang who can be as old as Concubine Zhen Xi for a thousand years.

 The current Concubine Yu, the biological mother of the third prince.

In her previous life, she entered the palace to marry Baili Rongze. There were many rules in the palace, but she had already been spoiled by the Fan family and was arrogant and overbearing and refused to learn them carefully. Concubine Yu came here specially, saying that she knew a talented person. A man who can transform a woman's bones when she is asleep will make her walk more dignified and dress more appropriately afterwards.

 Under Concubine Yu's sweet words, she drank the drug and when she woke up, she was no longer qualified to be a mother.

 Baili Rongze took the opportunity to throw her into the cold palace on the grounds that she could not have children. She ate scraps for three years and lived in a poor house for three years.

 Baili Fengming's lowered eyes lightly glanced at Fan Qingyao's still slightly immature face, and something seemed to flash quietly and fleetingly under his eyes.

"I don't want to die, save me, save me..." Fan Xuening, who was already frightened, threw herself directly into Concubine Yu's arms, her little body trembling even more violently.

Fan Zixiu, who was about to lose his face, seemed to have grasped the last straw, and knelt down in front of Emperor Yongchang again with a thud, and recounted what had just happened with tears.

Prince Rui also knelt on the ground and said sadly, "Your Majesty, even I don't know that the jade pendant was a gift from His Highness the Crown Prince. How could Ning'er know that at such a young age? Ning'er is still so young, how could she know that? Can you stand those five big boards?”

Lian Xi, who was standing on the side, was very surprised, "Wudaban hurts a little, but it is definitely not fatal. She is just a little concubine. How can it be worth having a prime minister and a prince plead with the emperor regardless of face?"

Fan Qingyao looked at the two old men kneeling down, his eyes cold and his heart even colder.

A little Fan Xuening will not be affected, but if it hinders someone’s next plan, that’s another matter.

Emperor Yongchang looked at Hua Yaoting with a headache, "General Hua, what do you think?"

Hua Yaoting snorted without changing his expression, "Even without the jade pendant given by His Royal Highness, the Fan family can attack my Hua family at will?"

Emperor Yongchang's head hurt even more when he saw Hua Yaoting's inconsolable appearance.

He has long been aware of the affairs of the Fan family and the Hua family, but the palms and backs of his hands are all flesh. Now he is afraid of favoring anyone.

"Today is the day when the emperor holds the annual banquet. Beating and killing will inevitably affect the celebration of the year. I think it is not a bad idea to punish me with other punishments." Concubine Yu hugged Fan Xuening who was in her arms. , avoiding the important and taking the easy way out with a smile.

Emperor Yongchang thought for a moment and looked at Queen Zhenxi, "What does the Queen think?"

The smile on Queen Zhen Xi's face was mixed with a little bitterness, but she still nodded and said, "What Sister Yu said is right."

Emperor Yongchang then looked at Hua Yaoting and said, "It's really not easy to fight and kill at the New Year's Banquet. How about giving General Hua a different punishment?" The fists under Hua Yaoting's sleeves were loose and tight.

 This is the case for both the government and the public. Not everything can be treated with equal justice.

But if he lets go, how will he explain it to his little Qingyao?

His sleeves suddenly tightened. Hua Yaoting looked down and saw Fan Qingyao walking up to him at some point and pulling his sleeves up.

"Qingyao..." Hua Yaoting felt even more guilty when he saw this thin face.

Fan Qingyao smiled instead, "The emperor's uncle said that the punishment should be changed. What do you think of the penalty of one year's salary?"

 In one sentence, everyone present was chilled.

 The emperor is the emperor.

　Where did your uncle come from?

"Fan Qingyao, you are so brave! Your Majesty, are you the one who tampered with the title at will?" Fan Yurong, who had been cowering like a turtle, finally caught Fan Qingyao's words and immediately scolded him coldly.

Emperor Yongchang looked down and saw a man looking at him longingly. The little man looked delicate and thin, but he was wearing more clothes. At a cold glance, he looked like a ball.

When their eyes met, the ball spoke, "The emperor's uncle is younger than my grandfather, so he should be his uncle."

“Fan Qingyao, you still dare to talk nonsense!” Fan Yurong angrily walked towards Fan Qingyao.

Emperor Yongchang glanced at him coldly, "You mean, I'm very old?"

“…” Fan Yurong, who was originally going to arrest Fan Qingyao, was so frightened that he immediately knelt on the ground and shouted that he didn’t dare.

Lian Xi was completely stunned.

As someone like him who has been serving his master all year round is a human spirit, he can obviously see that Fan Qingyao planned to frame Fan Xuening, and also wanted to take the opportunity to kill two birds with one stone and break off the relationship with his prince, but such a scheming person was so deep. A child who can't even measure with a ruler is acting cute now?

I have to say that this young lady from the Hua family and the eldest lady from the Fan family are really both salty and sweet!

 Baili Fengming was not surprised at all, but curled his lips with a half-smile.

"Your Majesty, are you still entitled to the salary for that year?" Concubine Yu seemed to speak casually, but her charming eyes looked at Fan Qingyao in disbelief.

Emperor Yongchang and the court elders present were all of the same age. Everyone only thought about the emperor's noble status, but forgot that the more noble the person, the more they hoped to stay young forever.

It's just a half-year-old baby, but one word can speak into the emperor's heart.

Emperor Yongchang also hoped that the matter could be settled quickly. He nodded and said, "In that case, I will fine Prime Minister Fan one year's salary instead."

“I thank you, Your Majesty!” Fan Zixiu quickly knelt on the ground, but no one saw the cunning smile on his lips.

Seeing Emperor Yongchang walking towards the main seat of the hall, others also returned to their seats.

When Concubine Yu passed by Fan Zixiu, she pushed Fan Xuening forward and said almost inaudibly, "Remember what you promised me."

"Don't worry, Concubine Yu." Fan Zixiu hugged Fan Xuening, the cunning look on his lips was still there.

It's just a year's salary, and how much money can he have? As long as he can keep Fan Xuening safe, he can quickly recover double the debt from the Hua family!
