Chapter 90: The husband has his own reasons, and the wife has her own reasons◇
Zhou Yu and Mu Qingni went all out, even daring to confront Prime Minister Hu, which amazed all the ministers who came with them.
The ministers naturally recognized Mu Qingni, the daughter of Mu Feng, the godson of the present emperor, and the first female war god of Dayan who was personally appointed by the present emperor after the defense of Fuzhou!
But in the past, people's impression of her was that she was taciturn and difficult to get close to. They only knew that she was good at fighting. Today, they found out that she is also quite good at talking!
But everyone knew her, so their curiosity about her was limited. Aside from Mu Feng, who looked at his daughter thoughtfully, everyone else was paying more attention to the other girl...
Everyone was wondering, who is this girl? So fierce?! How dare she confront Prime Minister Hu, who was encroaching on the government? And how dare she not even be nervous in front of the emperor?
Considering that her surname was Zhou and that Lord Zhou’s grandson was lying on the stretcher next to her, everyone wondered if this person was Lord Zhou’s granddaughter?
Some people who are familiar with Lord Zhou's family know that Lord Zhou has only one granddaughter, and her age doesn't match this girl's. So they wonder, could this girl be Lord Zhou's niece?!
Everyone thought this girl must be related to Lord Zhou, otherwise her mouth wouldn't be so powerful! Even Prime Minister Hu thought so, thinking that this girl dared to provoke him like this because she wanted to avenge her grandfather!
It seemed that Emperor Cheng Qian was the only one present who knew Zhou Yu's background. He didn't even know that Zhou Yu was also a shareholder of the Hot Spring Villa, so he secretly wondered, "Why is this girl everywhere?"
He glanced at Zhou Yu, who was kneeling calmly, and then glanced at Zhu Xi, who was standing behind him...
Uh~ Never mind! I'll just not watch it!
This grandson is drooling just looking at that girl. It's such a disgrace to the Zhu family!
However, Emperor Cheng Qian thought again that he had condescended to come here just to catch the Hu family's weakness. From this perspective, this girl did play a good role.
"Prime Minister Hu, you heard it too. The two maids and the others said it was your concubine who allowed the slave to hurt someone first. What do you have to say about this?!"
Emperor Chengqian asked Prime Minister Hu.
"Your Majesty," Prime Minister Hu replied with a bow. He realized that Emperor Chengqian wanted to use his concubine and illegitimate son as an excuse to force him to make concessions on political affairs. But he did not intend to give in. If he gave in, who would follow him?
So directly:
"As far as I know, whether it's General Mu, this Steward Zhou, or this Miss Zhou, they all have close ties with the Fifth Emperor's grandson. Since they're all family, it's not surprising that they all say this about me. If Your Majesty finds it credible, then I have nothing more to say!"
This statement is just short of stating that Emperor Chengqian is also the grandfather of the fifth grandson, and that the whole family is ganging up on them?!
All the ministers were shocked when they heard this. Zhou Jin and Zhou Po who were standing not far away were also shocked. They did not expect that the fight between Hu Xiang’s group and the current emperor had reached this level!
"Mr. Hu! What do you mean by that? Your illegitimate son and concubine just said it themselves. It was your son who started it first! Can you deny it just by saying so?!
And you, a concubine, are so arrogant and show off more than me, the eldest princess, when you go out. Don't you care?"
The eldest princess was the first to lose her composure. She slammed the table, stood up, and angrily shouted at Prime Minister Hu.
"The Princess has wronged me to death," Prime Minister Hu slumped to his knees and addressed Emperor Chengqian, "Your Majesty, please investigate! I've already made it clear that the reason I sent guards to follow Tian is because women in the capital have been disappearing frequently lately. I was worried, so I sent more people to follow them. If I'm wrong, it's mine, not Tian's intentional arrogance!"
"As for the question of who started it first, I have already said that even if Yi'er started it first, it was just a fight between children. The two girls said that Tian allowed her slaves to hurt people, but I dare not admit it. If it weren't for the excessive pressure from the Villa, Tian, a weak woman, would not dare to take the lead in causing trouble even if she had a hundred guts!
Tian is naturally timid and cannot be compared with the decisive and ruthless General Mu and this Miss Zhou who is good at using bows, arrows and poisons!"
Prime Minister Hu turned around and stared at Zhou Yu and the other two and said.
Mu Qingni…
Zhou Yu...
This guy's ability to confuse right and wrong is truly jaw-dropping. According to him, they are so powerful, but are they guilty?!
"Yes, Your Majesty, please investigate. Normally, I wouldn't even dare to step on an ant. I only rushed over when I heard Yi'er screaming. I also called for the guards to help because I saw how badly Yi'er was hurt by those two girls!"
After hearing what Hu Xiang said, Tian immediately wiped her tears and started crying, looking very weak.
"You're talking nonsense! It was clearly your son and his servants who injured Luo Ge'er first. We went to help, but you sent your guards to injure us. Your son even wanted to kill Luo Ge'er. If Yu Jie'er and Miss Mu hadn't come to the rescue, Luo Ge'er would have died by now!"
Zheng Wen, who was kneeling behind Zhou Yu, was immediately furious when he saw Tian pretending to be innocent at this time. He had forgotten to be afraid. A moment ago, they were all shaking with nervousness because the current emperor was sitting above them!
"My dear boy, be careful with your words. Do you have any evidence to prove that Yi'er wants to kill someone? Without Xiuguai's true appearance, I will punish you for false accusation!" Prime Minister Hu immediately said angrily to Zheng Wen.
"What evidence do you need? We all saw it with our own eyes. Your son even raised the knife, but Sister Yu and Miss Mu shot him!"
"Hmph! I've already said that this is just one-sided information from your side. I'm afraid you must have already colluded with each other before we came here!" Prime Minister Hu snorted coldly after hearing this!
Zhou Yu and others...
I never thought that a prime minister would be so unreasonable...
Zhu Xi couldn't stand still after hearing this. Just when he was about to retort, he saw Zhou Jin not far away winking at him. Seeing this, Zhu Xi quickly moved towards him...
At this time, everyone's attention was focused on the debate on the field, and no one noticed him.
Mu Feng had also left the scene and started to speak for his daughter, even though he still didn't understand why his daughter ended up in this situation...
"What are you talking about, Minister Hu? You are just a concubine, a weak woman? I think if you give her two more courage, she will probably dare to rebel!
And your precious son, what are you talking about, a childish fight?
Old Zhou's grandson is still lying here. We're not blind, can't we see what he looks like?! Do you see a single good spot on his body? If it was a child's fight, how come your son is fine, but this kid is covered in wounds?
If it weren't for my daughter and the girl from the Zhou family who were so capable and stopped your son from committing the crime, who knows whether Old Zhou's grandson would be here right now?!"
After Mu Feng finished speaking, he immediately aroused the agreement of everyone led by the eldest princess.
But there were also people on Hu Xiang's side. After hearing this, Wang Xianggong immediately stood up.
"Lord Mu, my nephew is still a son of a chancellor, so it's normal for him to have a few followers with him. Those servants are supposed to protect their masters. How could they just stand by and watch when their masters are in trouble? Besides, didn't someone from the villa also take part in the fight? They're not as skilled as the others, so what's there to say?"
"According to what you said, Qingni's two nieces beat Hu Yi, and Hu Yi was inferior in skills, so there is nothing to say?!"
Even Emperor Chengqian's youngest son, the twelfth prince Zhu Shan, couldn't help but jump up and yell at Lord Wang, because he was younger than Mu Qingni, and even though he was only a year younger than Mu Qingni, Mu Qingni and the others had to call him "little uncle"...
Because Zhu Shan was so young, the Crown Prince was responsible for his upbringing. Also because of his young age, the Crown Prince always treated this younger brother as his own son. Therefore, when they were young, they often played together, and the uncle and nephew had a good relationship...
"How are they the same? Mr. Hu's arm was broken? General Mu has practiced martial arts for many years, and Mr. Hu didn't know the severity of the situation. How could General Mu not know? It was obviously intentional!" A minister in Prime Minister Hu's team immediately stood up and argued.
"You bunch of civil officials are really interesting. Once you start fighting, you're going to fight to the death. Who cares about the severity of the fight?!"
Xiahou Yong, the son of the Duke of Zhenguo, said angrily that he had intended to say a few words to help Zhu Xi, but he did not expect that the other party would catch him in the act.
"Since General Xiahou also said that once a fight has already begun, why should we distinguish between the serious and the serious? Then how can it be said that Tian's mother and son were the first to allow their servants to commit the crime? Isn't this contradictory?!"
General Xiahou...
The Duke of Zhenguo, standing by, glared at his son fiercely, implying, "If you can't speak, then don't speak! Can't you see your father has been sitting there without saying a word?"
………
The two camps were arguing with each other, each one no less violent than those shrews fighting in the market...
While they were fighting, Zhu Xi suddenly led in a dozen women dressed as maids. Without greeting anyone, they rushed directly towards Tian and her son...
In a short while, he beat Tian Shi until his nose and face were swollen, and scratched Hu Yi until he looked like a blood gourd...
Emperor Chengqian...
Ministers...
Zhou Yu and others...
…
Because so many people came, all the guards were transferred to guard outside the house. Therefore, apart from Emperor Chengqian and the ministers, there were only the Zhou family and the Tian family in the house. No servants or slaves were left...
And most of Hu Xiang's men are civil officials, none of them can fight. Even if they could, they wouldn't bother to fight with a bunch of women! ?
Not to mention Emperor Chengqian, everyone was too busy watching the excitement...
Therefore, when Tian's mother and son were beaten, no one could stop them...
"Fifth Emperor's grandson!? What do you mean!?" Hu Xiang saw that his concubine was beaten beyond recognition, screaming repeatedly, feeling distressed, and immediately shouted angrily at Zhu Xi.
Zhu Xi imitated his calm demeanor and walked towards that station, saying calmly:
"Why are you so anxious, Mr. Hu? They are just a bunch of weak women. No matter how hard you beat them, what can they do?
Besides, what does their beating have to do with me? I don’t even know them!
"But they are obviously the maids of your villa! Did you just bring them in?" One of Hu Xiangfang's men jumped out and shouted.
"Oh? Is that so? Was it my grandson who instigated them to come in? The servants led by Prime Minister Hu's son were the first to attack, and the guards led by Tian were the first to injure people. Why doesn't Prime Minister Hu admit it?
And you're saying we're all in cahoots, ganging up on your daughter and concubine, that we're all colluding, and all our testimonies are unreliable?!
Haha, Mr. Hu, who wouldn’t be so unreasonable?
This imperial grandson also said that these women are all your former lovers, Prime Minister Hu. They can't stand the fact that Tian is favored by you, so they came here to settle the score with Tian?!
"Yes, Hu Lang, last time you gave me a palace flower on the street, how come you forgot about me in the blink of an eye!?"
The oldest of the women, Li Gui's wife, immediately spoke in the same tone that Zhu Xi had just taught her. She felt nauseous and got goose bumps all over her body after she finished speaking… It's over! From now on, she can't keep her old face anymore!
But for the sake of their Li family being able to have the fifth grandson, she accepted it! !
When the other women of the Li family saw this, they also followed suit and started to act coquettishly towards Hu Xiang...
Hu Xiang...
Everyone...
