Chapter 312 Kneeling Punishment



"Is she still kneeling outside?"

"Yes...yes, and the Fifth Prince too."

Sanhezi answered Qin Jue's question tremblingly. Sure enough, upon hearing Sanhezi's words, Qin Jue immediately threw the inkstone on the table to the ground.

Qin Jue's brow relaxed slightly, then furrowed again. "You may leave."

Upon hearing this, Sanhezi felt a great sense of relief. "Yes, this servant will take his leave immediately."

After finishing his sentence, Sanhezi hurriedly ran out of the Imperial Study.

After Sanhezi left the Imperial Study, Yuying emerged from the shadows.

"Of course, it's for you."

"What's there to comfort me about? I don't need any comforting."

Yu Ying smiled but didn't speak, just staring at Qin Jue.

"Derivatives, I think Xi'er's suggestion this time is good."

"Not bad? What's so good about it?"

Upon hearing Yu Ying's words, Qin Jue lost his temper and angrily asked Yu Ying the following question.

"Yansheng, why are you so angry?"

Yu Ying walked to the stool to Qin Jue's lower right and sat down.

"Derivatives, don't you think this is an opportunity?"

"Opportunity? Opportunity depends on her safety!"

"This is more important than anything else!!!"

Qin Jue then began to refute Yu Ying's words. Yu Ying had already guessed Qin Jue's reaction and simply sighed.

"Yansheng, I know what you're worried about. But this is also an opportunity. If we lose this opportunity, what about the future?"

"She's my daughter. Even if I don't have the chance, it doesn't matter; I can still give her to her. But I have only one request: that she be forever safe and happy!!!"

Yu Ying was a little displeased upon hearing Qin Jue's words. She stood up, walked over to Qin Jue, and stood with a table between them.

"Derivative, I don't like hearing that."

I watched her grow up, and I treat Xi'er like my own daughter. How could I not worry about her?

I will not agree to this.

Yu Ying tapped the table, thought for a moment, and then spoke again, "Even if you disagree, Xi'er will still go."

"Don't you know her personality?"

Upon hearing Yu Ying's words, Qin Jue also thought of Qin Ruoxi's stubborn nature; even if you forbade her to go, she would still secretly go.

"Moreover, it was Xi'er herself who suggested this, which shows that she wanted to go and was worried about the people."

"So, do people prefer those who are forced to go, or those who go voluntarily?"

"If you want Xi'er to... then she needs the support of the people first."

"Besides, opportunities don't come every time."

Opportunities come with dangers and unknowns. Must Xi'er always run away?

"Yansheng, since you've decided to let go and let Xi'er fly freely, shouldn't you respect her decision?"

Yu Ying unleashed a barrage of attacks on Qin Jue.

Although Qin Jue was worried that Qin Ruoxi would contract the plague in Ancheng, he was also angry because Qin Ruoxi was determined to go to Ancheng.

However, Qin Jue remained rational and understood that Yu Ying was right.

Seeing that Qin Jue's expression had softened somewhat, Yu Ying continued her relentless attack.

"Yansheng, do you want Xi'er to say when she talks about you in the future: 'My father is very good and respects me. Regarding the plague in Ancheng, I wanted to go. Although my father was reluctant to let me go, he still respected me and let me go.'"

I still want Xi'er to talk to her friends with regret in the future: "Back then, during the plague in Ancheng, I... wanted to go, but Father wouldn't let me..."

Which derivative would you like to hear?

Yu Ying glanced at Qin Jue again, and seeing that Qin Jue's expression had improved, she continued, "Alas, poor thing. Xi'er has never knelt before, but this time she was punished to kneel by her favorite father."

“Yansheng, Xi’er has been kneeling for almost half an hour, hasn’t she?”

Is that right? I can't remember.

Upon hearing Yu Ying's words, Qin Jue, thinking of Qin Ruoxi kneeling outside the Imperial Study, slammed his hand on the table and shouted, "Sanhezi!"

"Sanhezi! Let the princess in!"

Sanhezi stood at the door, trembled upon hearing Qin Jue's roar, glanced at Qin Ruoxi kneeling in the sun, and walked away.

"Princess, His Majesty invites you in."

"Um"

Upon hearing Sanhezi's words, Qin Ruoxi braced herself against the floor with both hands, attempting to stand up.

Just as she stood up and paused to cool off, Qingye, who was standing behind Qin Ruoxi, quickly reached out and put his arm around her shoulder.

Looking down at Qin Ruoxi, whom he was holding, his eyes were full of worry. "Princess, are you... alright?"

Qin Ruoxi leaned against Qingye's shoulder for a moment, then bent down and rubbed her knees and legs.

"Alright, Qingye, it's alright now."

After rubbing her legs and knees for a while, Qin Ruoxi stood up and smiled at Qing Ye, saying...

As Qin Ruoxi walked towards the imperial study, Qin Jingke reached out to help her, but Qin Ruoxi waved her hand.

Although Qin Jue inside the Imperial Study couldn't see outside through the doors and windows, he could hear Qin Ruoxi and the others talking outside.

In an instant, Qin Jue's face was filled with heartache and regret.

But when Qin Jue thought of Qin Ruoxi's stubborn desire to go to Ancheng, his eyes were filled with worry and a hint of anger.

Qin Jue was still thinking that when Qin Ruoxi came in, he would pretend to be angry and glare at her fiercely, so that Qin Ruoxi wouldn't go to Ancheng anymore.

Qin Jue's imagination ran wild, but when he actually saw Qin Ruoxi, his composure crumbled.

Qin Jue noticed that Qin Ruoxi's dress was covered in dust from kneeling on the ground.

Although it's clear that dust was brushed off by hand, it's still quite obvious.

Qin Jue's eyes were filled with slowing heartache and remorse for making Qin Ruoxi kneel outside earlier.

"Xi'er, what's wrong? Does your leg hurt?"

Qin Jue quickly got up from his seat and hurried towards Xiao Xi'er.

When Xiao Xi'er saw Qin Jue walking towards her, she immediately grabbed Qin Jingke's clothes.

"Ouch, that hurts so much, Ke Ke!"

Qin Jingke reacted quickly, immediately supporting Qin Ruoxi and comforting her.

"Sister, your legs should be bruised by now."

"I'll get you some medicine to remove the bruises in a bit."

Okay~

At this moment, Qin Jue also came to Qin Ruoxi's side.

"Xi'er, does your leg hurt a lot?"

Qin Jue led Xiao Xi'er directly to the stool and pressed her down to sit.

"Go and summon the imperial physician!"

After seeing Xiao Xi'er sit down, Qin Jue immediately turned to instruct Sanhezi behind him.

Upon hearing this, Sanhezi responded and quickly ran towards the Imperial Hospital.

When Feng Feng hurriedly arrived at the Imperial Study with his medicine chest, he learned that Qin Ruoxi had been summoned by Qin Jue because her legs hurt from kneeling.

When Feng heard that it wasn't a big problem, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Then Feng Feng carried the medicine box to Qin Ruoxi and carefully asked her...

Qin Jue breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Feng Feng say there were no problems.
