Chapter 102 Taking the Blame for the Emperor
Ye Chutang had already guessed about this arranged marriage.
Pretty much as she expected.
The role of the scumbag father was to tamper with her dowry and then frame Prince Chen for treason.
The sharp blade passed across Prince An's lips and landed on his neck.
Ye Chutang asked again: "Who are those masters in Prince An's Mansion? What is their purpose?"
Prince An's lip was cut and blood was flowing.
He felt a large hand pinching his neck, making it difficult for him to breathe.
Not daring to hide anything, he immediately told everyone his plans for the day.
After saying this, he wished he could strangle his daughter to death.
If she hadn't interfered, the plan of arranged marriage would have succeeded long ago, and all those things that happened later wouldn't have happened!
Ye Chutang saw what Prince An was thinking and curled his lips in mockery.
Do you really think three cobblers can be better than Zhuge Liang?
An idiot is an idiot, ten of them put together are still an idiot!
After she asked what she wanted to know, she knocked Prince An unconscious and stripped him of his clothes.
And he carved four words on his body with a dagger - Come and fuck me.
(x=fuck, because I’m afraid it won’t pass the review, so I use letters instead)
Then she took away two thousand taels of silver and the jade hairpin on his head.
Ye Chutang hung the naked Prince An next to the palace's carriage and patted the horse's butt gently.
The horse moved slowly and instinctively walked towards Prince An's Mansion.
So it dragged Prince An through the downtown area.
"Is this... Is this His Royal Highness Prince An? How... How could he..."
"Close your eyes quickly and stop looking at it, it's really immoral!"
"Who carved these words? They're too ugly, hahahaha..."
"Prince An is a homosexual? Hey, he's so young, he can only be a homosexual!"
"Then the prince and the princess..."
Prince An was awakened by the pain.
Although he was not fat, he was tall and used to a life of luxury. His wrist was dislocated after being hung for too long.
The sudden onset of severe pain made him scream and open his eyes.
What I saw was the people pointing and talking.
After hearing what the people were saying, he looked down in horror and was almost fainted from shock.
"Someone, come and put me down!"
The wound on the lip burst open, and blood stained the fair skin red.
When the people saw Prince An wake up, they immediately shut up and either lowered their heads or turned around, no longer daring to laugh at him.
Some brave ones wanted to fight for their own future and immediately stepped forward to rescue King An.
He took a knife and wanted to cut the rope that hung Prince An.
As a result, the angle of the knife was wrong, and the cold light of the blade reflected into the horse's eyes, scaring it.
The horse spread its hooves and ran forward like mad.
Prince An was tossed around, his head hit the carriage repeatedly, and he soon passed out.
***
When Prince An's embarrassing incident spread throughout the capital, he was sent back to Prince An's mansion by the military.
The fire in the palace had been put out, but everything was charred.
The air was filled with the choking smell of smoke, and everyone, servants and masters alike, were covered in dust and dirt.
Zhao Qingshu glanced at Prince An who was being treated by the imperial physician, and said to Princess An:
"Mother, the palace is no longer suitable for living. Shall we stay in the other courtyard for a while?"
Something happened in the palace, and my father has been made a fool of himself. It would be better for him to avoid it.
Princess An looked so haggard that she no longer looked like a noble lady from the capital.
She nodded. "You arrange it."
Zhao Qingshu coughed lightly, "Mother, if we go to the other courtyard, we need to buy some things."
Princess An suffered a severe heart attack when she thought about the palace being robbed of every penny left.
"Let's go to the shop and collect some money for emergency."
"Mother, this is inappropriate. In order to hold a grand birthday banquet for you, I went to the store to get some silver a few days ago. The remaining silver must be used for running."
Hearing this, Princess An took off a golden hairpin from her head.
He also said to his concubines and daughters: "Each of you should take out a piece of jewelry for emergency use."
Soon, Zhao Qingshu collected more than ten hairpins.
He never imagined that Prince An's Mansion would one day be reduced to having to sell the jewelry of female members to make a living!
"Mother, my son wants to deal with some shops and fields."
The Prince An's Palace needs to be rebuilt, which requires a lot of money.
Although the land deeds, property deeds and house deeds were all stolen, they could be replaced by government offices.
Princess An looked tired, "Just do whatever you want."
When Zhao Qingshu was arranging a carriage to take his father, mother and sister to the villa, someone from the Dali Temple came.
"Sir, Prince Chen, Young Master Qin, and Miss Ye have been found."
"Where did you find them? How are they?"
It doesn’t matter if Qin Muyun died, the key is Qi Yanzhou and Ye Chutang.
If these two people die, Prince An’s Mansion will be in great disaster!
"They were all found at home. Miss Ye was unconscious, Master Qin was seriously injured, and Prince Chen also suffered internal injuries."
Zhao Qingshu asked anxiously: "What happened in the guest house?"
"Prince Chen and Master Qin were too seriously injured to be questioned. After Miss Ye woke up, she said someone wanted to kill her as soon as she entered the guest house."
Ye Chutang described the iron cage, the clothes of the shadow guards and security guards, and the weapons they used.
The things matched those found in the ruins, which was enough to prove that she was not lying.
"Sir, Miss Ye said she almost died and she wants to file a complaint with the emperor and ask for an explanation from Prince An's mansion."
Zhao Qingshu got a headache after hearing this.
After sending away the people from the Dali Temple, he pulled Princess An aside.
"Mother, if you want to save Prince An's Mansion, tell your son the truth about the guest house."
When he was in the guest house, he saw that some of the remains belonged to his father!
Princess An realized she couldn't hide it anymore, so she told the truth.
Zhao Qingshu didn't expect that it was the emperor's intention to deal with Ye Chutang and Qi Yanzhou, and his headache became even worse.
If Ye Chutang goes to file a complaint with the emperor, Prince An's Mansion will have to take the blame for the emperor!
"Mother, please arrange for the settlement in the other courtyard. My son needs to go to the Shangshu Mansion."
We have to stop Ye Chutang before she files a complaint with the emperor.
Princess An nodded, "Qingshu, Minister Ye is also involved, you should discuss it with him first."
Zhao Qingshu simply packed himself up and headed for the Shangshu Mansion.
***
Ningchuyuan.
Ye Jingchuan looked at Ye Chutang who was unmoved and spitted everywhere.
"Chu'er, even if Prince An had the courage of heaven, he wouldn't dare to kill you when the guests were all present. It must be a misunderstanding. You don't need to file a complaint with the emperor, or you'll make a fool of yourself."
Ye Chutang chuckled as he ate the chilled grapes soaked in well water.
"Dad, do you want to know why you have devoted yourself to the emperor, but you are still just a minister?"
As soon as Ye Jingchuan heard it, he knew that Ye Chutang had no good words to say.
He said unhappily: "Do you think it's easy to be promoted to the second rank? How many officials have only been fifth rank officials their entire lives."
Those who have a smooth career either have the help of their family or nobles, or have followed the emperor, or have made great contributions like him!
He added somewhat complacently.
"Your father and I didn't have any foundation in the capital, but it took us less than ten years to become the Minister of Revenue. Looking at the entire Beichen Kingdom, we are a rare existence."
Ye Chutang looked at the complacent Ye Jingchuan and said sarcastically, "What's there to be proud of by sacrificing the Tang family who has done you a favor?"
If it weren't for the help from the original owner's mother, this bastard wouldn't have the money to go to Beijing to take the exam!
To put it another way, even if he went to high school on his own.
But without money to pave the way, a poor scholar would not be able to make it in officialdom.
As a result, he turned evil into evil, not only killing the original owner's mother and brother, but also destroying the Tang family.
Scum!
Ye Jingchuan's voice became louder because his pain point was touched.
“If the Tang family doesn’t sit upright, even if it’s not me, it will be someone else.”
"Whether you really have a clear conscience, you know better than anyone else."
Ye Chutang said this mockingly and returned to the topic.
"It took you less than ten years to become the Shangshu because you took shortcuts. You made no progress in the next ten years because you are really stupid!"
Ye Jingchuan: “…”
Ye Chutang raised his eyebrows, "If I want to kill someone, I will choose a situation that everyone thinks is impossible."
"For example, if I wanted to kill you, I would choose now!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the sharp dagger cut Ye Jingchuan's neck.
