This time, Duke Qi did not pull Qi Yunqing to learn a few moves as usual when he saw him.
Instead, she stared at him with red eyes.
Qi Yunqing was still a little uncomfortable looking at the rough and red-eyed face of Duke Qi, who was in his forties.
Listening to Duke Qi's chatter, it turned out that he felt guilty because he learned that Madam Qi had killed his mother and had harmed him many times.
In fact, Qi Yunqing had known about Madam Qi's evil deeds for a long time. The reason he didn't attack Madam Qi before was because Duke Qi had always been very good to him. He knew that Duke Qi still cared about Madam Qi and her son, and he didn't want to hurt Duke Qi, who had been protecting him since he was a child.
On the other hand, Madam Qi was very nice to the county lord on the surface, and she didn't want to make the county lord sad.
He originally planned to wait, as he had plenty of time anyway. He would wait until Duke Qi passed away and the county lord discovered Madam Qi's true identity before taking action.
Seeing that Qi Yunqing did not blame him, Duke Qi felt even more guilty and uneasy.
However, Qi Yunqing didn't know that what he was thinking was that now that Madam Qi and her son were driven out, Madam Qi's suffering had just begun. He wanted to make the person who harmed his mother live a life worse than death.
Duke Qi said that after a while, he would ask the emperor for permission to make Qi Yunqing the crown prince.
So the main event of urging marriage and childbirth began, and dozens of portraits were placed in front of Qi Yunqing.
Qi Yunqing waved his hand and said, "Father, I already have someone I like. I'll tell you later when the time is right."
Thinking that the county lady had been harmed by that bitch and could no longer have children, Qi Yunqing thought it would be better to hint to Duke Qi first.
"But father, you don't have to rush to make me the crown prince. I think you are still young, and it's okay for you to marry a new wife and have a few more children. Then you can choose a suitable one to be the crown prince."
Duke Qi was completely confused and thought that his son did not want to get married, so he refused the position of crown prince and asked himself to have another child.
Even if I could give birth to another child, I would never give birth to a son as smart as this one.
He could read at the age of three, had a photographic memory, was very talented in martial arts at the age of four, and when he was a teenager he tried his best to catch the emperor's eye, and never made any mistakes in doing things for the emperor.
Just for this ability, he must become the prince and must marry and have children.
But he knew his son's temper and did not force him. Instead, he began to send people to track Qi Yunqing's whereabouts.
The next morning, Duke Qi met with the emperor and apologized, then gave the eldest princess 300,000 taels of silver as compensation in front of the emperor.
The eldest princess turned around and donated it to the emperor in front of Duke Qi. The emperor praised the eldest princess for her concern for the country and promoted her daughter, Princess Jiaoyang, to Princess Jiaoyang.
Duke Qi cursed Qi Yunfeng again in his heart.
Three hundred thousand taels of silver, he received a reward from the eldest princess, and he barely got a smile from the emperor.
He had to be careful and behave himself. If Qi Yunfeng was at home, he would be beaten up again.
Qi Yunfeng, who was being scolded by Duke Qi, sneezed several times, which affected the wound that Duke Qi had just inflicted, and he cried out in pain.
Madam Qi, with a pale face, tried to comfort him. At this moment, a little maid ran in hurriedly:
"Madam, Brother Hu insisted on living in the large courtyard of the former Duke's Mansion, and I couldn't persuade him."
Madam Qi waved her hands irritably, "If he doesn't obey, starve him."
Soon another maid came running over and said, "The Third Young Master is sick again. The doctor said he needs some Ganoderma lucidum as medicine. We need one thousand taels of silver to buy it."
Madam Qi frowned, but after all, he was her grandson, so she immediately asked someone to buy him.
Ever since leaving the Duke's Mansion, she has been taking care of Qi Yunfeng and his sons, both big and small, and she doesn't know how long her dowry will last.
Qi Yunfeng no longer had any fatherly love for these children. Not only was he not grateful to Madam Qi, he also blamed her for meddling in his affairs.
"Tell me, if I use the lives of these children to prove my loyalty to the county lady, will she marry me again?"
He had sent the county lady many letters seeking peace these days, but whether they were reminiscing about the past or promising the future, all he got was a single, single word: "Get lost."
So he has been thinking about how to win back the county princess and regain the position of crown prince.
Since Fangfei was the trigger, she has already been punished by Shuntian Prefecture.
As for the remaining children of Fangfei, the county lord would definitely dislike the sons of her enemy, so it would be better to send these children to be tortured by the county lord to vent her anger.
After hearing Qi Yunfeng's lewd words, Madam Qi couldn't bear to part with her three children, so she refused Qi Yunfeng and asked him to think of other ways, such as carving a jade hairpin by himself.
But Qi Yunfeng had an idea in his mind, so he secretly did it while Madam Qi was resting.
When Qi Yunfeng was being carried to the back door with several children, the Princess's Mansion was holding a banquet to celebrate Dan Ruo's promotion to County Lord. A servant of a young lady saw it and spread the news to the banquet.
The ladies and wives of each family encouraged Danruo to go and take a look, and then they hid behind the door.
As soon as the back door was opened, Qi Yunfeng did not see the ladies from other families, so he quickly expressed his intention to Danruo. He said that these three children were sent to help the county lord vent her anger, and he did not care whether they were alive or dead, as long as the county lord could calm down and forgive him.
Dan Ruo found it ridiculous. "I heard that I swear on my life today that there is no possibility for me and Qi Yunfeng to be together again in this life. If you continue to pester me, I will report you to the authorities."
"Princess?"
The ladies and wives behind the door came out and said jokingly:
"Qi Yunfeng, don't you know? The Emperor issued an edict two days ago to confer the title of Princess Jiaoyang upon the Princess. The Princess is in great favor. How could a servant like you, who can even lay hands on your own child, harass her?"
