Gong Liangxiu raised his eyes meaningfully.

There was an undisguised bloodlust in his eyes, which was creepy.

The emperor's expression looked truly frightening, and the county magistrate's scalp went numb with fear.

"Oh, I forgot about you."

"Come here, take the county magistrate away, along with the mother and daughter, and make sure all three of them confess everything they've done."

The county magistrate was so frightened that his hair stood on end.

When the Jinyiwei came forward to arrest him, he was still struggling: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty! I am Qingdai's father!"

"snort!"

The curve of Gong Liangxiu's lips was full of bloodthirstiness.

"You're selling your daughter for fame. A man like you isn't worthy of being Dai'er's father! Stop talking nonsense and drag it away."

The Jinyiwei took the county magistrate away in no time.

Although the emperor did not say much, Commander Qiu knew that these three people would probably spend the rest of their lives in torture.

Gong Liangxiu turned slowly.

Now there is only one left.

The general was still being held and unable to move.

From his angle, he could only see the gold threads adorning the edges of the emperor's narrow crimson-purple sleeves.

When the general first heard the news that Qingdai was pregnant, his eyes widened with anger. His first reaction was that how dare that unvirtuous bitch seduce His Majesty?

Then his eyes darkened. If she was really pregnant with the emperor's child, wouldn't he have no chance to get that beauty?

But soon, another thing immediately occupied his mind.

If the emperor has a child...how can he adopt Prince Lin's child?

"I heard... the general promised the county magistrate a high position and generous salary in exchange for Qingdai entering the general's mansion..."

The emperor's tone was full of nonchalance, but a chill permeated his entire body.

At this point, how can the general still admit it?

"Your Majesty, I have absolutely no such intention! The county magistrate's office simply wanted to get close to me, so they promised their daughter to me. I was also deceived. If I knew the truth, I would never dare to covet her!"

The general's tone was full of helplessness and surprise at being deceived.

It has to be said that when a person is about to die, his potential can still be stimulated.

At this moment, the general's desire to survive was extremely strong.

Marquis Ping'an looked at him with an indescribable expression.

The general may not know yet that what happened today is not groundless.

Your Majesty has already seen through everything. Trying to quibble now is only adding fuel to the fire.

"Oh, really?"

Gong Liangxiu looked at him with a smile.

"Of course it is. If my words are false, I will be struck by lightning that very day!"

The general swore silently without changing his expression, and his tone was so sincere that it didn't show his rogue look at all.

Gong Liangxiu's patience was exhausted and he didn't want to see him again.

"Jinyiwei, show the general all the good things he has done over the years, so that he can understand why he lost the hat on his head."

Commander Qiu took out a roll of paper from his sleeve and handed it to the general very politely.

All his deeds in the army, such as robbing beautiful women, buying and selling official positions, were exposed in black and white in broad daylight.

The general's hands were shaking as he held the paper.

He suddenly came to his senses and dropped what he was holding.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty... These are all false accusations against me by others. I beg Your Majesty to see clearly!"

Gong Liangxiu looked at him coldly.

In fact, he had already held these evidences in his hands, but he had not taken them out yet because he was waiting for the right opportunity.

Now that this old man is old, the time is almost ripe for him to hand over the military power.

And this old guy actually put his hands on Qingdai.

Then don't blame him for being ruthless!

"The general is lacking in virtue and possesses wicked ambitions! Come, arrest him, confiscate his property, strip him of his official hat, demote him to a commoner, and exile him to the Western Wasteland!"

The general fell to the ground with a pale face.

It's over. Everything is over.

***

His Majesty brought a woman back to the palace.

This news spread like a hurricane, quickly sweeping through the three palaces and six courtyards.

The harem had been silent for many years, and the emperor initially held a large-scale selection of concubines, and the ministers kept sending women into the palace.

But the results were still minimal, and no one in the harem was pregnant.

Gradually, the emperor gave up the idea of ​​choosing a concubine.

The ministers began to concentrate on urging their daughters who had entered the palace to seize the opportunity.

As long as you are not pregnant, there is a chance!

The former queen passed away long ago, and the throne has been vacant for many years.

It seemed that everyone had already tacitly agreed that any daughter who could conceive a legitimate son would have the opportunity to become queen.

That is a huge honor!

I didn’t expect that after so many years, His Majesty would bring a woman into the palace again!

Gong Liangxiu carried Qingdai into Jingren Palace.

The reproductive system hurried to wake up Qingdai.

His host was really careless. When he was listening to the emperor dealing with that top-notch family and the general, he actually fell asleep while listening.

This can’t be blamed on Qingdai.

It took more than a month to travel in an ancient horse-drawn carriage.

The rickety carriage made people drowsy.

A month was neither too long nor too short, but it also made her develop the habit of dozing off from time to time.

Hearing that all the bad guys were punished, her scalp relaxed and her heart felt comfortable. Didn’t she fall asleep just like that?

Her thick eyelashes trembled, and Qingdai slowly opened her eyes.

The rosewood gauze cabinets and diamond-shaped gauze curtains in the bedroom are extremely exquisite and elegant furnishings.

Qingdai looked at the unfamiliar place in front of her and said in surprise: "Where am I?"
