Chapter 8 Calm down, dear!
When Cheng Jin heard Chu Chengye's words, she thought he was talking about her, and she lowered her head even more.
In the peripheral vision, Cheng Jin caught a glimpse of Qu Wanxin still standing there straight.
She is a modern person born with a halo in the book. It is set that she does not have the habit of etiquette like the people of this dynasty. Her unusual behaviors make the men in the book bow down to her.
Cheng Jin is different from Qu Wanxin. She knows that she is just a small cannon fodder in this world. Her life or death has no impact on the plot of this novel, so she wants to live.
Since she is just an unimportant person, why must she die?
So she didn't dare to step out, even though she didn't have the habit of being polite, even though she said she didn't care about those flattering and false words.
When the emperor is angry, according to the rules, he must kneel, but Qu Wanxin stood straight, even looking at Chu Chengye without blinking, and pleading for Cheng Jin.
"Your Majesty, please don't blame the queen."
She thought that although the emperor died early, he was still handsome.
Qu Wanxin tilted her head to look at Chu Chengye, her eyes full of clarity.
["You are different from others. This vicious woman hurt you, but you plead for her. You are really kind and generous."]
Cheng Jin took a sneak peek and saw Chu Chengye also looking at Qu Wanxin. She couldn't help but criticize in her heart, imitating the attitude written in the book.
[No, you two are exchanging glances, at least let me go. 】
【Sure enough, you can't escape the phrase "You are different from others". When you listen to Qu Wanxin chatting and reciting poems at night, you will feel that she is different. After all, the 5,000-year-old foundation of Chinese culture is not nonsense. 】
"I am asking you, why don't you bow, why don't you kneel?"
Chu Chengye stood in the room with his hands behind his back. As the emperor, he was naturally intimidating without being angry.
He knew that he couldn't hear anything from Cheng Jin's mouth, and he was too lazy to watch Qu Wanxin's hypocritical pretense here.
Qu Wanxin pointed at herself in surprise, "Me? I didn't do anything? Why should I kneel?"
After hearing this, Chu Chengye didn't react at all, his face didn't change, but the two eunuchs behind him were quite tactful and pressed Qu Wanxin to her knees on the ground.
"Why kneel? I'm afraid you've been confused in this palace. The emperor is the Son of Heaven. In the whole Southern Qi, except for the empress dowager, everyone has to kowtow to the emperor."
Things didn't develop as she imagined. Cheng Jin looked up at Chu Chengye and happened to meet his eyes. The corners of her mouth slightly raised.
[Am I seeing things? What is this tyrant laughing at? Could it be that he really thinks Qu Wanxin's ideas are very interesting? Sure enough, the protagonists' thinking is really unique. ] [
In this case, you two can't blame me if you think of me in the future. I didn't say a word. Just don't ask me to be buried with this dog emperor when he dies. ]
The burial was mentioned again.
Chu Chengye's face darkened instantly. He originally thought that compared with Cheng Jin, Qu Wanxin was not interesting, but stupid and rude.
Now it seems that Cheng Jin is much more courageous than Qu Wanxin. She thinks about how she and he died a hundred times a day.
Chu Chengye glanced at Qu Wanxin impatiently, "If you are causing trouble in this palace, I think you should go to the Ministry of Punishment for two days to get busy and let the palace maids there teach you the rules."
Cheng Jin's eyes widened instantly and looked at Chu Chengye in disbelief.
"Your Majesty, you can't do that. Although the noble lady Hui made a small mistake, it's not a crime."
Don't you think it's interesting? Is this a special interest?
[No, the fifth prince started the war in advance in the book because he heard that Chu Chengye treated Qu Wanxin badly in the palace. Now sending her to the Ministry of Punishment is not a direct way to death? ]
[You want to die, but I want to live.]
[This tyrant has just ascended the throne and has no idea how many people in the court are dissatisfied with him, and how many people are under the Fifth Prince's faction. The throne was not obtained legitimately, and now it is just the opportunity to let everyone help the Fifth Prince to push him down?]
[If you really think that Qu Wanxin is rude and has damaged the dignity of the royal family, and want to punish her, you should also think about the fact that she is the only daughter of Doctor Yushi. How can she go to a place like the Ministry of Punishment? Her father is also an expert in getting you out of office. It's fine if you don't avoid her, but if you really do that, they might kill you at the palace gate tomorrow.]
[Calm down, dear!]
Chu Chengye listened to Cheng Jin's inner thoughts and slowly clenched his fists.
Good!
That's great!
They all hope that the Fifth Prince can overthrow me, and they all hope that I will die.
Chu Chengye was furious, and he wished that he could chop off the heads of the Fifth Prince and the flattering officials headed by Doctor Yu Shi and hang them on the city gate.
On second thought, now that there is no evidence, catching and killing people will make the people of the world panic, and it will leave a greater trouble. Now he doesn't know who exactly wants to rebel.
Just as Cheng Jin said, stay calm.
Chu Chengye took a deep breath, turned his head and looked at Cheng Jin and Qu Wanxin who was kneeling there and still not humble or arrogant.
"Noble Concubine Rong is right, the crime is not so serious. Noble Concubine Rong is tolerant and kind, you should thank her."
Cheng Jin: "!!!"
[Okay, wait for me here? The compliments to me are fake, but the real purpose is to make me hate you. 】
"Your Majesty, you are too kind." Cheng Jin gritted his teeth but still had a smile on his face, "Mrs. Hui is still young and has just arrived at the palace. It is normal that she does not understand the palace rules."
"Okay, Qu will reflect on herself in the palace and learn the palace rules well. She is not allowed to leave the palace without my order."
When Qu Wanxin was led away and passed by Cheng Jin, Cheng Jin saw Qu Wanxin glaring at him fiercely.
It's over.
Cheng Jin was slightly relieved when she saw Chu Chengye waving his sleeves and intending to leave.
【Finally, we have to send these two Yan Wang away. I will ask Cuizhu to invite two good-looking doctors to take a good look at her. Don't let yourself be so young and get scared to death in the end. Chu Chengye ,
who was about to leave, paused.
Scolding him as King Yan?
And sending someone to find two good-looking doctors?
He turned around unexpectedly, and when he saw Cheng Jin's surprised expression, his expression improved a little.
"I have to go to the study to review memorials later. The maid who is grinding has fallen seriously ill and can't get up. Concubine Rong, why don't you accompany me?"
"Your Majesty is reviewing memorials. It would not be appropriate for a concubine from the harem to go."
[Ahhhhhhhhh!!!]
[Am I the only one in the palace with hands? I think you, dog tyrant, are determined to punish me!]
"If I say you can go, then you can go."
Cheng Jin had no choice but to change her clothes and follow Chu Chengye.
When changing clothes, Cuizhu looked particularly happy. She put on all kinds of expensive hairpins and gorgeous clothes.
"Cuizhu, are you going to dress me up as a peacock?"
