Chapter 8 There's something wrong with this kid
Chapter 8 There's something wrong with this kid
The originally quiet Yongqing Palace suddenly became chaotic.
"You little bastard! I'll kill you!"
"General Qin! Calm down!"
"Yeonyoung! Control your emotions!"
"Ahhh! Dad, she broke my hip!"
"Asshole! Apologize to General Qin and the prince now."
The palace was extremely noisy in the middle of the night until a light cough was heard from the bedroom.
The cough was very light, but it reached everyone's ears.
The voice of Emperor Li Hong.
In an instant, everyone stopped what they were doing and saluted respectfully towards the gate.
Except for the prime minister's youngest son Shen Jin.
Because his hips were removed.
"What brings you here so late at night?"
The sounds in the bedroom were warm and gentle, and just listening to them made one feel like being bathed in a spring breeze.
He doesn't look like an emperor with great power, but rather like a gentle and handsome middle-aged Confucian scholar.
Upon hearing this, Prime Minister Shen Kui quickly bowed and said, "Your Majesty! My son failed to provide adequate hospitality and did not arrange enough guards on the ship, which resulted in the son of the Marquis of Zhennan being kidnapped by criminals. This old minister brought my son here to apologize."
"you put……"
Qin Yanying was extremely angry, but in front of the emperor, he swallowed back the dirty words he had learned in the army and said through gritted teeth: "Shen Kui! Don't think I don't know that your little beast has done a lot of bad things to my Muye.
You said that Muye was kidnapped because there were not enough guards. But I heard that there were maids in every room on the ship, and they would visit every half hour to ensure that the guests did not get drunk and vomit.
But it was three full hours before you realized that Muye was missing.
Then, as soon as she found out that Mu Ye was missing, the maid left a letter saying that the incident had nothing to do with the Xiangfu, and then she committed suicide. How do you explain this?"
Shen Kui was speechless: "..."
How could he explain it?
There were so many maids in the prime minister's mansion, and he didn't expect that the maid serving Qin Muye happened to be the one who was bribed.
The worst thing is that this maid was a hired servant of the prime minister’s mansion, and there was no reason to even explain why she was bribed.
It's really yellow mud and rotten crotch...
Shen Jin couldn't help but ask: "If I really wanted to harm Qin Muye, why is he still standing here..."
"Snapped!"
Shen Kui slapped him in the face, his temples bulging with anger: "Asshole! Shut up!"
"father!"
Shen Jin felt very aggrieved, but when he saw his old father's ferocious eyes like a beast, he couldn't help but shiver.
He was the youngest son in the family, with only an older brother who was a dozen years older than him, so he was spoiled since childhood.
This was the first time he saw his father so angry with him.
Could it be that even the powerful old father couldn't handle this matter?
He was a little scared.
Li Hong smiled faintly and said calmly: "Shen Qing, do you think there is any mystery in this matter?"
Shen Kui bowed down quickly: "Your Majesty! The suspicion on this old minister has not been cleared yet, and there is no way to prove my innocence, so I should be less talkative. However, this matter concerns the innocence of this old minister, and also concerns the harmony between the generals and ministers, so this old minister dares to guess that there is an invisible hand in the capital that is stirring up trouble, intending to intensify the conflict between the Shen family and the Qin family..."
Qin Yanying was so angry that her nose was crooked: "Come on! Do we need outsiders to intensify the conflict between the Shen family and the Qin family? Go home and commit suicide with your family, and there will be no conflict between the two families!"
Li Hong's voice was slightly complaining: "Yan Ying!"
Qin Yanying quickly shut up. She had been following Li Hong and Qin Kaijiang since she was a child. In her heart, this emperor was no different from a brother. Although the emperor treated her like a sister, she still had great respect for him in her heart.
Li Hong then smiled gently: "Yanying, Shen Qing has already said it, it's your turn, don't be impatient."
Qin Yanying took a deep breath and expressed all the doubts in his mind.
There is a lot of content.
But most of them are just the same old tune.
In the end, she just started to curse, calling Shen Jin a worthless person, bullying her nephew, and being worse than pigs and dogs. Shen Jin was so angry, but under the glare of her old father, she could only shut up in humiliation.
After listening patiently, Li Hong said calmly, "What you said has been investigated by the Jinyiwei. All the relevant people have been confined and can be further interrogated at any time. Please be patient. I will definitely give you and Muye justice. During this period, I hope you can put the overall situation first."
Qin Yanying: “…”
It was like this every time you spoke to the emperor. He did everything neither hurriedly nor slowly, and you couldn't find anything wrong with him. If you continued to argue with him, you would be being unreasonable.
She could only nod: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Li Hong smiled faintly and asked again: "Muye, you are frightened."
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty."
Qin Muye was flattered and acted like a well-behaved junior.
Li Hong sighed softly: "I originally wanted to take you back to Beijing to recuperate, but I didn't expect that before you recovered, you would fall into such a vortex. I feel guilty!"
Qin Muye said quickly: "Your Majesty, don't say that. I am in Kyoto. If others want to harm me, I can't hide. Your Majesty is willing to support me, and I am already very satisfied.
Besides, my uncle is very good at investigating cases. I told him everything I could remember. With him around, the mastermind behind this will be found sooner or later."
"Hey you..."
Qin Yanying felt a little disappointed with his nephew, as he didn't expect that his nephew would kneel down so quickly.
After all, I was choked back by the emperor.
This kid surrendered without even waiting for the emperor to say anything?
See this scene.
Shen Kui immediately breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the emperor was indeed very capable and had calmed the aunt and nephew down with just a few words.
Although this good-for-nothing dude from the Qin family has a somewhat twisted personality, he acts like a good kid in front of the emperor.
Li Hong smiled with relief: "I am very pleased that you think so! In this case, it is getting late..."
Qin Muye said quickly: "Your Majesty, I have another request."
"You speak."
"This time, I narrowly escaped death. I was attacked by a villain and nearly lost my mind. Although I have recovered a little now, there are still many vague memories. I don't know when I can remember them.
My uncle is the commander of the Jinyiwei. He cannot have only one case on hand and may not be able to spare his time at all times. So, Your Majesty has allowed me to give my uncle, the commander, some instructions when I think of something."
"Oh?"
Li Hong smiled and said, "You have a close relationship with Commander Chen, why do you need to ask me for help?"
Qin Muye said respectfully: "Who doesn't know that Daqian is dedicated to His Majesty? The cases on his hands are all His Majesty's cases. Without His Majesty's promise, how can the younger generation have the ability to command the elders?"
"That's right! I agree!"
Li Hong warned gently, "But you must remember not to use chicken feathers as a token of authority and affect the normal handling of the case by the Jinyiwei, and do not deliberately frame or torture them into confessing. Otherwise, I will take back this order."
"Yes!"
"It's getting late. Chen Sui stays here. You all go down!"
After saying goodbye, everyone left the bedroom one after another.
From beginning to end, Li Hong didn't even show up.
After leaving the palace, everyone got into their own cars.
Shen Kui glanced at Qin Muye's back. He always felt that something was wrong with this boy today.
……
Qin Yanying kept on talking all the way until she got on the carriage, still complaining to Qin Muye: "Why did you kneel so quickly? You are the victim. Based on your aunt's many years of experience in making trouble, you are the most qualified to make trouble.
No matter how much you cry and make a fuss, you can at least get the other side of the Shen family's big hip off, but you just let him go? It's really embarrassing for our Qin family!"
Qin Muye rubbed his head: "Aunt, I have my own arrangements."
"What are your plans?"
"Tell me, what is the biggest problem we will face after returning to Beijing?"
“I’m short of money!”
"Starting tomorrow, we won't be short of anything!"
"..."
