Chapter 112 The King Seizes His Minister's Wife If Line Shura Field
Qin Sizhao frowned, took off the jade pendant, put it in his sleeve, stretched out a finger and tapped her forehead.
"Rong'er, stop messing around! How could this happen?"
“…”
Tao Jinrong said nothing, pouted, and looked unhappy. She felt that Qin Sizhao was taking the matter too seriously. Gu Shi even cheated on her, but he didn't care that she had a husband. How could he care about a jade pendant?
"This is very dangerous... there's no telling what the consequences might be. Don't do something so thoughtless next time."
"Why don't you just wear it quietly so he doesn't see it?"
Seeing that she didn't take it to heart at all, Qin Sizhao felt furious for a moment, but he couldn't bear to really blame her, so he could only sigh.
"Don't do this again. I'll return this jade pendant. Just take a good rest and behave yourself. Don't get into trouble so easily."
She actually dared to steal Gu Shi's things without permission. She really caused a big disaster. If he found out, he would be furious. I really hope he would apologize quickly. It should still be in time.
The next day, after leaving court, he presented the jade pendant with both hands and knelt before Gu Shi to apologize.
When Jinzhan saw him coming, her eyes widened instantly, thinking that this was a good show. She cleared her throat, tactfully sent everyone else away, and put one ear against the wall.
"Your Majesty, I acknowledge my guilt... It was all due to my failure to discipline her. Please don't blame my wife for being playful and taking your jade pendant."
Gu Shi's expression was somewhat bewildered. Why did Qin Sizhao know that Tao Jinrong had taken his jade pendant? He and Tao Jinrong were still having an affair, so why would she show her lover's token to her husband?
Qin Sizhao knelt on the ground, wearing only the simplest clothes. A strange intuition came to his mind. Gu Shi's voice trembled and he said:
"She took this jade pendant. Was she going to give it to you?"
"She was naughty and ignorant... She has already promised me that she will never do it again."
Gu Shi's face turned pale in an instant, the corners of his mouth involuntarily turned downwards, he lowered his head and stared at Qin Sizhao.
He was showing off to him.
That’s right, Tao Jinrong’s husband is Qin Sizhao, and the person she loves is also Qin Sizhao. She has to try her best to win a little attention from her, but he can get it effortlessly.
In the past few years, the two of them have lived together day and night, and the love and sweetness between them, how could he be lucky enough to enjoy it?
It’s really not worth it when you think about it. Tao Jinrong not only cheated him of his body, but also took his money to have fun with other men.
Anyway, no one in this world wants to know who he is, no one is willing to listen to his ideas. What everyone obeys is just a false empty shell. Without this shell, he is nothing, and no one can see his deepest desire.
Therefore, he could not let Tao Jinrong go.
"Editor Qin, I'm afraid you know best how to apologize, right?"
Gu Shi showed a cruel look. It would be best if Qin Sizhao could go to a brothel, get syphilis and die.
"I... don't know..."
"Give her a divorce letter."
“…”
Qin Sizhao was silent.
If she lost her status as a married woman, wouldn't she become a piece of meat on the chopping board?
"She...she doesn't want to..."
Gu Shi actually saw a hint of complacency between his furrowed brows. He couldn't help but clench the teacup tightly, and blue veins bulged on the back of his hand.
He didn't want him to see that he was truly jealous, so he suppressed his anger.
Qin Sizhao was indeed here to show off.
"Jinzhan, bring Tao Jinrong here."
He wanted to ask her carefully, what exactly did she like about Qin Sizhao?
Qin Sizhao knelt on the ground for an hour, and Gu Shi just drank a cup of tea indifferently.
"Attend Your Majesty."
Tao Jinrong bowed pretentiously and immediately realized that the atmosphere here was not right.
Qin Sizhao's knees were sore, his face was purple, his lips were pale, his eyeballs were covered with red bloodshot, and his eyes showed waves of fear.
Seeing her husband being bullied by outsiders, Tao Jinrong instantly became furious. She took two steps at a time and stood in front of him, looking up and questioning:
"Why? Is that jade pendant so valuable? Why is Your Majesty so angry?"
Qin Sizhao tugged at her sleeve in panic and whispered:
"Rong'er, don't act on impulse."
This little action fell into his eyes exactly, and Gu Shi suddenly felt very aggrieved. It was obviously Qin Sizhao who provoked him first, but she felt sorry for Qin Sizhao instead.
"Why, Tao Jinrong, do you still want to punish me?"
Tao Jinrong bit his lower lip, hugged Qin Sizhao's neck, and put his face against his. Qin Sizhao quickly dodged.
"I'm the one who stole the things. If you want to punish me, just make me kneel. Why punish my husband?"
She lowered her head and said to Qin Sizhao:
"A Zhao, don't worry about him, get up first."
"no……"
Qin Sizhao held her wrist and looked embarrassed for a moment.
Seeing the intimacy between the two, Gu Shi sneered:
"Do you think your husband is really a gentleman? You didn't see how smug he looked when he provoked me just now. Since you are willing, then you will take the punishment for Qin Sizhao."
Nonsense! How could Qin Sizhao possibly provoke him? He was just jealous and making up stories.
Tao Jinrong didn't believe a single word he said. He just helped Qin Sizhao, who looked stunned, to stand up.
After kneeling for an hour, he was already a little unsteady on his feet. He turned his head and looked at her with concern.
Tao Jinrong quickly said in his ear:
"Are you stupid? You really came to find him?"
Jinzhan came in at the perfect moment, reached out to support Tao Jinrong, and said:
"Please go to the side hall and wait for His Majesty's decision."
Perhaps out of some reluctance, Jinzhan added:
"Lord Qin, please go back quickly and stop bothering His Majesty."
It only took a stick of incense for Gu Shi to open the door.
He stood in front of her and suddenly became at a loss.
After stuttering for a long time, he finally said:
"Tao Jinrong, what exactly do you like about him? Why don't you want to divorce him?"
He couldn't understand why Tao Jinrong would fall in love with someone else after having an affair with him, not to mention that Qin Sizhao was one year younger than her and looked like a child back then.
"We've been childhood sweethearts and have lived together since we were young. Of course I like him."
"You were in love with me, and now you're with another man...don't you feel awkward?"
"I don't think so."
Tao Jinrong frowned. Gu Shi asked her this question just to wait for her to coax him, but if she relaxed a little, he would definitely lose his mind about his last name again.
"Qin Sizhao is so audacious! He dares to show off and provoke me again and again..."
She glanced at him coldly:
"Why, Your Majesty, you made others kneel for an hour, but you feel wronged?"
Gu Shi was choked by her words and lowered his head in grievance.
She glanced and found a pair of gleaming shackles on the bed, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly.
