Chapter 48 Shameless King Qi
Seeing that the retired emperor supported him, Su Yuheng was afraid that Emperor Showa would go back on his word, so he immediately kowtowed to him.
"Your Highness, I thank you. May you live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years."
The emperor sat upright on the chair, looked at the little girl kneeling below, and said with a smile: "You stand up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
The Emperor said, "Since the Prince of Qi has identified you as the murderer, you are not allowed to go anywhere in the Imperial City of Yanjing until the Dali Temple finds the real culprit."
"You saved my life back then. I don't believe a little girl like you is a murderer."
Su Yuheng looked up at the white-haired old man sitting on the chair, feeling deeply moved.
She didn't expect that the emperor would come forward to protect her personally.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I will obey your orders."
Huo Xingzhi sat on the chair, his dark eyes quietly looking at the girl kneeling below.
Sure enough, the emperor emeritus was still useful at this critical moment.
The retired emperor looked at Emperor Showa from his chair and said, "Are you satisfied with my handling of the matter?"
Emperor Zhaohe showed an embarrassed look on his face and said with a smile: "Since the emperor has spoken, I will do this. However, Jing Che's injury has already hit his vitals. If he can't be cured, I am afraid that in the future..."
Emperor Showa did not continue speaking.
In the future, you will have no descendants and no chance of becoming an emperor.
Su Yuheng was thinking about it when he heard the emperor speak again: "If it really doesn't work, go and ask the genius doctor Feng Wu to come to our Dayan. He will definitely be able to cure Jing Che."
He stood up from his chair, his voice becoming unusually cold: "If he hadn't committed so many evil things, how could he have ended up like this?"
"This..." Emperor Showa frowned.
"What does this mean, Father?"
The retired emperor did not reply to him. After all, in front of Emperor Showa and the Empress, the Prince of Qi was a gentleman with excellent character and conduct, and was the candidate for crown prince recommended by the ministers in the court.
Emperor Zhaohe naturally did not believe that the Prince of Qi would do anything that would be detrimental to his character.
The emperor looked at Huo Xingzhi.
"Zhi'er just returned from the frontier. He accompanied his grandfather back to Yongshou Palace to talk about interesting things in the frontier."
Huo Xingzhi raised his eyebrows slightly, stood up, walked to the emperor, and helped him out of the imperial study: "There are many interesting things in the frontier. I will tell you personally."
After the grandfather and grandson left the imperial study, Huo Xingzhi spoke first: "Grandfather, you know the truth today, right? Why are you defending Miss Su?"
The Emperor narrowed his eyes and sighed slowly: "I am already quite old, I have seen all kinds of people and all kinds of things in the world."
"Although the King of Qi was injured, it was his own fault. The girl can't be blamed."
He looked at Huo Xingzhi and said with a smile, "This girl from the Su family is different from what I thought. She is bold but careful."
Huo Xingzhi frowned. He could see that the emperor was intending to protect Su Yuheng today.
I think the relationship between the retired emperor and Su Yuheng is more than just the life-saving grace he gave me back then.
The emperor must have known Su Yuheng's true identity, and was worried about the children left behind by General Shen and Madam Shen, thinking of the heroes of the Shen family who were slaughtered.
"I remember that the Dali Temple has several death row prisoners imprisoned today. I want one of them to take responsibility for the pleasure boat incident and guarantee his entire family prosperity and wealth. This matter will be settled."
Huo Xingzhi's eyes lit up, and he instantly understood what the emperor meant.
"Grandson will do it right away."
It was almost dusk when Emperor Zhaohe allowed Su Yuheng and Liu Jinshu to return to the Su family.
In the carriage, Liu Jinshu pursed her lips and looked up at Su Yuheng who was sitting opposite her.
She said timidly, "Cousin, today on the pleasure boat, Jinshu didn't mean to push you into the water."
"My cousin was standing on the shore at the time. Jinshu was afraid that she would fall into the water, so she wanted to push her to the other side."
“I didn’t expect Jinshu to fall into the lake by herself.”
Su Yuheng looked at her steadily and sneered, "Cousin, you always lie so confidently. Do you think I'm a fool?"
"No." Liu Jinshu quickly retorted.
"Jinshu was really thinking about my cousin and didn't mean to harm her."
She lowered her head, looking weak and fragile, and reached out to pull Su Yuheng's arm, but Su Yuheng pushed her away.
"Cousin, you don't have to pretend. I know everything that happened on the pleasure boat."
"Not only did my cousin steal the poem, she also blamed it on me. She didn't learn the etiquette and rules well, and now she blames me for not teaching her well."
"Everyone in Yanjing knows what kind of person you are. You don't have to act in front of me now."
"parking!"
The carriage stopped outside, and Su Yuheng got up from the couch and jumped directly out of the carriage.
At this point, she no longer wanted to act with Liu Jinshu.
Liu Jinshu has lost her virginity to the King of Qi and is considered his concubine.
Besides, she had arranged for Yun Yi, so she could just leave the rest to Yun Yi.
After Su Yuheng got off the carriage, he found another carriage and rushed to the Su family.
After she went to the old lady's yard to meet Old Madam Su, she went to Liu's yard to meet Liu.
Mrs. Liu hugged her and cried with tears in her eyes, saying that what the King of Qi said was all lies.
She gave birth to her own child and said that she was in pain for three days and three nights before she was born.
Su Yuheng was too lazy to watch Liu's performance, so he made a few casual remarks and went straight back to Fangfei Garden where he was.
After all, it is too early for her to accept her identity as a member of the Shen family.
There is no trace of Shen Tingzhou, and all the male members of the Shen family were slaughtered and there is no news of them.
Su Yanqiu is not dead, and her identity will never be exposed until the things in the Su family ancestral hall are sorted out.
The reason why she told this matter in front of His Majesty and Queen Ye today was simply to ask Queen Ye to investigate the incident of the baby swap.
After returning to Fangfeiyuan, Su Yuheng heard Bai Lu say that someone from the Dali Temple had confessed the matter of the painted boat.
If you sign and seal your name, you will be executed.
She was a little bit surprised. She didn't expect that someone would confess this.
This is the crime of murdering the prince, a capital crime.
Could it be that the retired emperor or Huo Xingzhi wanted to help her?
Just as she was thinking, Bai Lu pushed the door open and came in: "Miss, the old lady is in the front hall now. Please go to the front hall."
Su Yuheng frowned slightly. When she came back just now, she went to the old lady in person. Now she was asked to go to the front hall again. Could there be something important?
"Okay, I'll go."
She changed her clothes and went to the front hall.
As soon as I reached the front hall door, I heard the voice of a maid.
"Our Prince Qi said that the fourth young lady of the Su family knows some medical skills, and asked her to accompany this old servant to the Prince Qi's mansion to personally treat our prince."
These were the words Su Yuheng heard after he entered the front hall.
Old Madam Su sat in the main seat with a very cold expression.
She looked at Su Yuheng and said, "Since the King of Qi asked you to go and treat him, then you can go with Nanny."
There was a hint of impatience in his tone.
Su Yuheng sneered in his heart.
As expected, she was not her biological granddaughter. She didn't even say a word to refute or refuse.
I know clearly that the Prince Qi’s Mansion is a hell.
The incident she encountered with bandits at the White Horse Temple a year ago was also because Liu wanted to give her to the King of Qi.
The bandits just wanted the King of Qi to play the hero who saved the beauty.
Su Yuheng nodded: "Yes, Grandma."
After the carriage arrived at Prince Qi's mansion, Su Yuheng was taken to Prince Qi's side room.
The King of Qi was lying on the bed, wearing a white undergarment and his chest was bandaged with white cloth.
When he looked at Su Yuheng who came in, his eyes were filled with bottomless murderous intent.
"Even if you have the support of the Emperor, what does it matter? If I ask you to come today, you still have to come!"
Su Yuheng walked inside step by step with an expressionless face.
The King of Qi has the appearance of an emperor and he sat on the throne in his previous life.
It is really hard to kill in this life, even if you are like this, you will not die.
"It seems that His Highness's injuries are not serious enough."
The King of Qi glared at her fiercely.
"If you want me to die, it depends on whether you have the ability to do so."
He took out a jade pendant from his sleeve and shook it in his hand.
"Look carefully, what is this?"
Su Yuheng lowered his eyes and saw that it was the same jade pendant with dragon pattern that he had seen on the man in the White Horse Temple a year ago.
The King of Qi said coldly, "It was I who saved you from the bandits at the White Horse Temple a year ago."
"It was I who detoxified you."
