Chapter 503: Cui Yi is about to break apart
Doctor Cui rushed in, shouting, "Junior sister."
"Junior Sister!"
"Tamamo and Zhuyue went to the clinic to get medicine to maintain pregnancy. Are you pregnant?"
"How many months has it been? Have you been feeling unwell?"
"Come, come, let me take your pulse."
"People say that doctors don't treat themselves, so it would be more reassuring for me to take your pulse."
Cui Yi ran and jumped into the house, not looking like a little old man in his sixties at all.
The veins on Xie Yingmian's forehead twitched several times.
Zhuyue Yumao went to get medicine to maintain the pregnancy, while Yu Lingye went to ask his senior brother for help.
The senior brother was shouting to everyone that she was pregnant.
Very good, a perfect logical closed loop is formed.
Yu Lingye, this scheming fox, could even plan this!
"Brother, wait a moment before you get excited." Xie Yingmian said, "Fu Mo, Fu Feng, guard the door and don't let anyone get close."
Cui Yi didn't understand.
Why is Junior Sister so mysterious?
Could it be that she is pregnant with an immortal fetus?
It must be!
Junior sister is not an ordinary person, so it is reasonable for her to be pregnant with an immortal fetus.
Xie Yingmian didn't know what Cui Yi was thinking.
She got straight to the point and asked, "Cui Yunxi is your grandson?"
Cui Yi said: "Cousin, my cousin's kid."
"Did that kid provoke you? If he did, I'll break his legs."
Xie Yingmian looked at the lively old man with a puff of beard and glaring eyes, not knowing how to start.
Yu Lingye: "Let me tell you."
He told Cui Yi that the Cui family might interfere with the imperial examinations, kill students, and use the imperial examination rankings to make profits.
Cui Yi stood there frozen as if he had been struck by lightning.
for a long time.
Cui Yi finally found his voice: "Junior Sister, His Royal Highness Prince Ling, is this matter... true?"
Yu Lingye's tone was icy: "Although Dunguo Mansion and Muguo Mansion have long been separated, are you really unaware of what Muguo Mansion has done?"
Cui Yi: "I can't guarantee that others don't know, but I certainly don't know."
If he knew about it, he would try his best to stop it.
Interfering in the imperial examinations, persecuting students, accepting bribes to manipulate imperial examination rankings... no matter which crime it is, it is a capital crime.
How dare they do such a wicked thing!
"Are you sure it's the Mu Mansion?" Cui Yi was unwilling to believe it. "Where did this news come from?"
Xie Yingmian: "We are just guessing."
A glimmer of hope ignited in Cui Yi's eyes: "Maybe, there is something wrong."
"Although my cousins in the Mu Mansion don't get along with me, they are all descendants of the Cui family. How could a member of the Cui family do such a thing..."
Cui Yi's voice became smaller and smaller.
He himself doesn't believe this.
The two ancestors of the Cui family followed the founding emperor to build the country. They were real heroes, loyal, brave and upright people.
The descendants of the Cui family are worse than the previous generation.
For example, father.
My father was a typical playboy. He spent his days walking his birds and playing with his dogs, frequenting brothels, and was also a gambler. Most of the family wealth of the Dunguo Mansion was gambled away by that stinky old Deng.
He learned the two words "Lao Deng" from Sui Sui.
It fits the image of his father perfectly.
Adding the word "stinky" makes it more soulful.
If it weren't for Chou Laodeng marrying his sensible and strong mother, and if it weren't for his mother using her dowry as a facade to help Dunguo Mansion overcome its difficulties, Dunguo Mansion would have collapsed long ago.
Their mother taught them three brothers strictly since they were young. The three brothers were also very capable. Except for the eldest brother who became a Taoist priest after seeing through the world, the second brother and he also supported the family.
The Mu Mansion did not have a mistress as strong-willed and resolute as his mother, and his cousins were spoiled, picking up all the habits of playboys and causing trouble everywhere.
When the late emperor was still alive, those cousins had caused great trouble and had their titles stripped away.
Until fourteen or fifteen years ago, Yun Xi suddenly passed the imperial examination and became the top scorer. In order to commend the Cui family, the late emperor returned the title.
Cui Yunxi grew up under his care. The child was indeed different from his cousins in personality. He was also good at studying and was praised by the dean of the academy for his talent.
After Cui Yunxi passed the imperial examination and became the top scorer, he was very happy for a long time, thinking that the Mu Mansion finally had a successor.
but……
But now he was told that Cui Yunxi's title of number one in the imperial examination might be fake, and that several of his cousins might have committed a heinous crime that would have implicated the entire clan.
Cui Yi was confused and dazed.
Suisui placed the milk tea in front of Cui Yi and shook it.
Cui Yi didn't respond.
Sui Sui's comment: "It's over. The old man was so shocked that he looked like he was about to break apart."
"If I had just stayed calm and enjoyed the achievements earned by my ancestors, I could have laid back and enjoyed the wealth and glory for several lifetimes. But I chose to commit a crime instead."
"It's fine if he's just courting death, but he's also implicated an innocent old man."
"I would also collapse if I were in your place."
Xie Yingmian asked Suisui to feed Cui Yi a pill.
Cui Yi slowly came back to his senses.
He sighed deeply: "Little Junior Sister, His Royal Highness Prince Ling, thank you very much. I understand this matter."
"I'm sorry, I can't take your pulse. I have to go back home first."
Xie Yingmian said, "The news I received is that the emperor has both witnesses and evidence. We are just waiting for the right time. Brother, you should know what I mean."
Cui Yi's originally straight back suddenly bent down.
"I understand." Cui Yi left Tanyueyuan in a daze.
After leaving Danyue Courtyard, he noticed the gazes of people around him and quickly returned to his usual nonchalant attitude.
He did not go back home directly, but went to the largest golden building in Shangjing - Qianji Building.
He customized a longevity lock, a pair of gold bracelets, gold chopsticks, a gold bowl, etc. at Qianji Tower.
After paying the deposit, he went to Zhaixing Tower and ordered a table of dishes and some wine. He also booked the entire place and asked the singing girls to sing some songs.
It was not until dark that he returned to Cui's house drunk.
After returning to Cui's house, he went back to his room, lay down and started snoring.
The people who were watching Cui Yi slowly withdrew after confirming that Cui Yi was asleep.
Not long.
These spies appeared at the palace.
The spies told the emperor all the information they found out in Prince Ling's Mansion.
The emperor looked sinister: "Xie Yingmian is pregnant?"
"Is the news accurate?"
The spy said, "Your Majesty, the medicine that Princess Ling's two maids went to get is for pregnancy maintenance."
"Earlier, when the two maids went out to buy snacks, they also mentioned that Princess Ling had a poor appetite."
"After Master Ji left, Prince Ling immediately summoned Imperial Physician Cui. Imperial Physician Cui was in high spirits all the way. After leaving, he went to Qianji Tower to order a baby-style longevity lock and bracelet, as well as gold bowls and chopsticks for the Hundred Days Banquet. He also went out to drink and listen to music to celebrate."
"I heard Imperial Physician Cui's drunken rant about naming Princess Ling's child."
"Based on these clues, we should be able to guess right."
Bang!
The emperor threw the cup in his hand to the ground.
The exquisite porcelain cup shattered into pieces in an instant.
The spies and the palace maids and eunuchs in the room immediately knelt on the ground.
The emperor's face turned pale.
After Xie Jingyun cut off his roots, his life was no longer complete.
