However, Yi Cheng did not commit a crime, but Zhao Qingrui wanted to punish him to calm her depressed mood as a single person.
Jia Henian quickly told what he knew. Judging from the emperor's expression, he would not kill Yi Cheng.
Since he won't die, there's nothing to worry about. At most, he'll just suffer a little.
As Jia Henian spoke, Zhao Qingrui couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
This guy is just a deadbeat. Even though he became someone's son-in-law, he still has to maintain his dignity and attract other women.
"Oh."
Zhao Qingrui sneered, and both of them were frightened and their hearts skipped a beat.
"What kind of punishment should I give?" Zhao Qingrui thought lightly with his fingertips. If the punishment is too heavy, it will not be good and may even affect his reputation. If it is too light, it will not teach him a lesson.
Before Zhao Qingrui could come up with a plan, Yi Cheng's wife came over. She saw the tall and strong woman kneeling down to beg for mercy for Yi Cheng as soon as she entered.
"Stand up. I'm not going to kill him. I'm just going to give him a little punishment." Zhao Qingrui chuckled.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness." Song Xiaolian hurriedly expressed her gratitude happily.
Although she is tall and strong, she has a gentle name.
"I heard that you are a clerk in Xianyang City?" Zhao Qingrui looked at Song Xiaolian.
"I'm not a clerk. I just help record some things." Song Xiaolian said cautiously.
"It must be tiring to support a family alone." Zhao Qingrui glanced at Yi Cheng. During this period of time, Dun Ruo and the others had already investigated him thoroughly.
This guy studied at the Jixia Academy for a few years. After returning to his hometown, he found that the management of the Qin Dynasty was strict and he had no way out, so he became idle.
Even after getting married and having children, he is still the same as before.
But there were also good things after getting married. He married Song Xiaolian, whose father used to be a businessman and had accumulated some wealth, so his life became a little better.
Perhaps because he had stayed in the Jixia Academy for a few years, he became much more arrogant and looked down on his wife.
Even after having three children, he often hangs out outside and even has affairs with other women.
If Song Xiaolian hadn't had a bad temper and was not very strong, he would have dared to kill someone.
"Not bad." After being confused for a moment, Song Xiaolian still answered honestly.
She has now passed the civil service exam, and her father left her a considerable inheritance, so the family's expenses are no problem at all.
"I've made the decision for you. From now on, you women will work outside and he will work inside. Let him stay at home to take care of the children, clean the house, cook and do laundry. Don't give him any pocket money. It's enough for you to earn money outside to support the family." Zhao Qingrui glanced at Yi Chengdao, who was ambitious.
Yi Cheng was also confused, and then his face turned pale.
He has participated in official examinations in recent years. He believes that his talents are no worse than Jia Henian. If Jia Henian can pass the exam, he will definitely have no problem.
He still hasn't passed the exam yet, which is just bad luck. The main reason he didn't pass is that His Majesty ordered the exam to be much more difficult, which is why he didn't pass.
Your Majesty's order is to cut off his path to continue taking the imperial examinations.
"Your Majesty, no, I know I was wrong and I will never do it again. I still have to take the official assessment." Yi Cheng shouted.
"The imperial court does not need officials with flawed personal morals." Zhao Qingrui's words completely ruined his future.
Your Majesty has personally evaluated that his personal morals are flawed. Who would dare to employ him from now on?
That’s not right. He has no chance at all. He will have to spend the rest of his life worrying about the daily necessities of life.
"Your Majesty, is this a bad thing? He is actually not that bad." Song Xiaolian was secretly happy in her heart, but still showed concern.
"He uses your money to find other women and buys them cosmetics and beautiful jewelry, while you have to work hard to support the family and also support him. Are you willing to do that?" Zhao Qingrui looked at Song Xiaolian's rough clothes, and then looked at Yi Cheng who was dressed in brocade and looked like a decent person. Zhao Qingrui felt very unhappy.
"It's all up to Your Majesty." After two seconds of silence, Song Xiaolian spoke firmly.
"Well, take the person back." Zhao Qingrui nodded.
At this time, Yi Cheng's eyes were dull. He felt that there were dark clouds over his head and he would never be able to make a breakthrough in this life.
The people were taken away, leaving only Jia Henian here.
"Your Majesty, how about I leave too?" He felt it was difficult to breathe after staying in the same room with His Majesty.
His Majesty is still the same His Majesty as before. He is so cruel. Brother Yi’s life is over.
Would Your Majesty doubt his ability? After all, he and Yi have a good relationship.
"Why are you in such a hurry to leave? I heard there will be fireworks later. I asked someone to send some seafood over. Please eat with me. It will be more lively with more people." Zhao Qingrui glanced at Jia Henian. Is this kid so timid?
"Yes, I will respectfully obey your command." It is not impossible to have a meal with Your Majesty.
"Your Majesty, the emperor is on the cruise ship next door. Would you like to invite him over?" Shang Lian came in and said.
"Father, he actually came out too. Did he bring other concubines with him?" Zhao Qingrui raised his eyebrows.
"Not really, but I brought Young Master Zhao and Princess Qinlan." These two children were born after Zhao Qingrui came back, and they are only a few years old now.
"I will personally invite them over." Zhao Qingrui stood up and went over.
As for her two younger brothers and sisters, she didn't care about them at all. Before they came of age, the court would provide them with a portion of the funds, so they would not lack food, drink and education.
