Chapter 386: The Little Scholar in Male Disguise and the Amazing Emperor 43
Cha Jiu was released from the Dali Temple.
He Yanyang stood at the door waiting anxiously, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw his sister come out safely.
And greeted him with sadness and distress: "Sister, you are really..."
...It's painful.
He couldn't utter the last two words, and his expression even turned a little strange.
Because he found that his sister had a rosy complexion, a happy expression, and even gained a lot of weight.
It has absolutely nothing to do with the word "suffering".
Xiao Shunzi, who had changed into casual clothes and followed, said in a low voice: "Don't worry, our Majesty has informed the Dali Temple Minister, and Lord He has definitely not suffered any hardship in there."
After hearing this, He Yanyang showed gratitude on his face and said, "Your Majesty, we, the He family, will never be able to repay you in our lifetime. I hope that Eunuch Shun can convey my gratitude to you on my behalf."
Xiao Shunzi smiled and said, "Mr. He will have plenty of opportunities to thank His Majesty in the future."
He Yanyang was a little confused, but he didn't think too much about it.
Cha Jiu was a little surprised to see Xiao Shunzi appear here.
Xiao Shunzi then stated his purpose.
It turned out that He Jinfu was going to be exiled the next day, and Yelu Zongzhen specially allowed He's brothers and sisters to see him for the last time.
When mentioning this person, both the brother and sister had cold expressions and hatred in their hearts.
They walked into the dark and smelly cell and saw with their own eyes He Jinfu, dishevelled and frantic, catching live mice everywhere in the cell and then putting them into his mouth to eat them raw.
Seeing such a disgusting scene, the surrounding prison guards turned their eyes away, filled with disgust.
He Yanyang, however, watched intently, feeling only happy in his heart.
Among the crowd, Cha Jiu's expression was the calmest.
She asked the jailer to open the door and walked in herself.
He Jinfu was still grinning and biting the mouse in his hand.
Cha Jiu looked at him and smiled: "Playing dumb"
He Jinfu's silly expression remained unchanged, but a dark light flashed beneath his cloudy eyes.
Cha Jiu squatted down and said softly in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Don't worry, I will go to the palace today to ask His Majesty to find another death row prisoner to be exiled in your place."
"He Jinfu, I want you to be nameless and have no surname from now on, stay in the prison of the capital forever, suffer torture, and confess to my father."
He Jinfu finally panicked, and his unfocused eyes suddenly became clear: "I was wrong, I was wrong, it was not me who killed your father, it was the Prime Minister!"
“Why did he do this?”
"Because your father accidentally discovered his secret of changing the account."
Cha Jiu's eyes darkened: "But my father never told anyone."
He's father was timid and cautious, and only wanted to avoid doing anything good or making any mistakes, and he never took the initiative to get into trouble.
He Jinfu: "So what? The Prime Minister wants him dead, so I have no choice but to do as he says. I put the venom in his food and let him die quietly."
At this point, He Jinfu could only tell everything he knew, just to ask for some sympathy from Cha Jiu.
During his exile, someone would pick him up, kidnap him, and take him to a neighboring country to start a new life.
So he has to get out of this damn prison!
Cha Jiu learned the final truth, but felt neither sad nor happy.
She stood up and walked out the door.
He Jinfu tried to grab her sleeve and beg her, but was almost kicked over by Yu.
His escape plan failed and he was imprisoned for life in a dark, damp and smelly cell. He dreamed every day that the people he had killed had turned into fierce ghosts and were demanding his life. In the end, he actually went crazy.
All the male members of the He family were exiled, and the female members were sold. The property that belonged to He's father returned to He Yanyang and Cha Jiu.
The Prime Minister's residence was ransacked, and the gold hidden in the walls, the luxurious jewelry of an upper-class grade used by the wives of the emperor's concubines, and the pawnshops and money houses that were secretly run were all taken into the national treasury.
The prime minister was thus removed from office, and his cronies were wiped out, and the court was clean from then on.
But that’s all for later.
…
After leaving the prison, He Yanyang let out the anger that had been pent up in his chest for many years, and sighed again:
"Your Majesty is truly a great benefactor to our He family. Zijin, you must remember this kindness. No matter what Your Majesty wants in the future, we must do our best to repay him."
Cha Jiu: “Yeah.”
As a result, when he returned home, the benefactor of the He family was sitting leisurely in the main seat drinking tea.
Shen sat at the bottom, looking reserved and swallowing nervously.
It was not until she saw her husband and sister-in-law coming back that she rushed to greet them as if she had seen her savior.
"Husband! Zijin!"
The figure drinking tea suddenly froze.
Although Yelu Zongzhen appeared calm and composed on the surface.
But inside, he was already restless after seeing Cha Jiu coming in.
His eyes followed her closely.
But there is also a feeling of timidity.
Has she become unfamiliar with him after these days of separation?
Would she blame him for taking so long to come up with a solution to rescue her from the Dali Temple?
Now that her mission in the court has been completed, will she agree to enter the palace and become his queen?
All his thoughts were like a tangled mess, making him extremely distressed.
Cha Jiu is much more direct and bold than him.
She walked over, took his hand, and walked towards the study: "Follow me."
Her voice was soft and intimate, without any strangeness.
Yelu Zongzheng's tense heart relaxed a little. He lowered his head and stared at her hand holding his, then shook it tightly.
Cha Jiu smiled and let him hold it.
After entering the study, she dragged out a large box with great effort, and Yelu Zongzhen hurried over to help.
When she opened it, she found that it was filled with hunting equipment that he had picked for her one by one.
From the small golden peach skin bow that she made by herself, to the boots and arm guards that he ordered to be made of deerskin, to small water bags, and even unused bows and arrows, she brought back all of them and kept them carefully.
Yelu Zongzheng: "This arrow is no longer usable, why bring it back?"
Cha Jiu stroked the useless arrow and said reluctantly, "You picked these things yourself. I can't bear to just throw them away on the grassland."
She also took out another small box and took out things one by one, counting them all as if they were her treasures.
"You got angry in the tent and didn't forget to give me the medicine. The medicine has been used up and now there is only an empty porcelain bottle left."
"This is the dress you prepared for me when we left the palace together."
"This was in the tavern, and you chose to trust me without saying anything, and gave me the banknotes to beat someone up for me."
"and……"
Finally, Cha Jiu took out a scroll and unfolded it.
The painting above shows Yelu Zongzheng riding a tall horse, holding a long sword, and looking very heroic when he first entered the capital.
Yelu Zongzheng was stunned: "This is..."
…
…
Don't be impatient, there are only a few chapters left to the end. Too many story lines were lost in the early stages, so it's a bit troublesome to pick them up now.
