Chapter 95: Next time I will thank you for your kindness
The two maids followed Yueli with mixed feelings until they returned to the palace. Then they hurriedly called the palace doctor to bandage Yueli's hand.
Qi Yu was so sad that she cried.
She didn't know why, but the princess, who used to be a delicate girl who would cry in pain even if her skin was broken, now didn't feel any pain at all even if she scratched her palm.
How painful must the princesses be feeling?
Upon learning that Yueli had injured her palm, Xie Lixing immediately returned from the yamen.
"Did you go to watch Chen Chaoxing's execution?" Xie Lixing personally applied medicine to Yueli.
Yueli looked at the palm of her hand that she had scratched to pieces, and belatedly cried to Xie Lixing, "Ah Xing, it hurts so much... Wuuuuu..."
I don’t know if it was the pain in her hand or in her heart, but in any case, she felt very painful.
Yueli's nose was red from crying, which made Xie Lixing feel very distressed.
"If you're so sad, why do you still want to go?"
"I want to see it." I want to see Chen Chaoxing get what he deserves, I want to see Chen's parents heartbroken, I want to see my own liberation...
There are many reasons.
Xie Lixing wrapped Yueli's palm and couldn't help but put her fingertips to his lips and kissed her, "Call me next time and I'll go with you."
If you want to pick it again, pick it on his skin, he has thick skin and flesh.
Yueli leaned on his shoulder and nodded obediently, "Okay, I'll pick you next time."
[It must be said that Yueli and Xie Lixing had the same idea when it came to tricking Xie Lixing.]
[Hmm... How can this not be considered a kind of telepathic connection? ]
[The scene where Yueli watched Chen Chaoxing's execution had such mixed feelings for me. The person I grew up with but used to be so mean to each other suddenly had his head dropped right in front of me one day...]
Chen Chaoxing has been bullying Yueli since they were little. Does Yueli have such feelings for him?
[I guess he's crying about his past self? So wronged.]
[Damn! Our Lubao is the one who suffered the most, having been swapped since childhood. If it weren't for Yueli, our Lubao wouldn't have had such a hard time.]
Every time this happens, the barrage always gets noisy.
Everyone felt that Chen Chaolu's life in the Xue family was miserable. She was not loved and had no education, and it was all the Xue family's fault.
Before Mr. Xue became the Minister of Revenue, the Xue family was indeed sent out to serve as officials, and the family was not wealthy.
But, the Xue family is a scholarly family, so they can’t be uneducated, right?
Yueli shook her head and stopped thinking about the barrage. She was now more spiritually relaxed.
Chen Chaoxing is dead, who will be next?
-
"really!?"
After seeing Chen Chaoxing's death, Yueli and Xie Lixing went to Beiyuan to meet the Xue family.
Inform the Xue family that the Xue family case has been reopened and Chen Chaoxing was also beheaded at noon today.
The dead cannot die again.
After hearing two pieces of good news in a row, the Xue family members all looked suppressedly happy, and Wu Qin was so excited that she wiped away her tears.
That’s great, that’s great.
She clasped her hands together and paced back and forth in the room. "Qingchen, did you hear that? Chen Chaoxing has gone to hell. If you are in hell, remember to seek revenge on him..."
"He just died. He's no match for you. Go find him and cause trouble."
Wu Qin's words are actually a kind of sustenance.
Yueli knew it, but didn't say anything.
Xie Lixing stood beside Yueli and said to Master Xue, "Grandfather will go with me to the court tomorrow. His Majesty wants to see you."
"good."
As his life improved, Mr. Xue's eyes became much more energetic.
It is said that people feel refreshed when good things happen to them. This probably applies to the Xue family. Even the two little kids have chubby faces now and don't look as frail as before.
next day
Mr. Xue followed Xie Lixing to the court and waited outside early in the morning.
He had tattoos on his face, which attracted the attention of many people who saw him. However, everyone knew that this was not the place to talk, so they turned around and left in silence.
In the court, officials are still engaged in a war of words over the Xue family case.
Finally, Xie Lixing handed over an account book. "Your Majesty, this is the whereabouts of the silver Xue Xuesong was accused of embezzling. Please review it!"
Xie Lixing's words were like a stone thrown into the lake.
It has caused greater discussion.
However, we are not fools.
The attitudes of the gentlemen changed so quickly, obviously they have done a lot of bad things.
The eunuch who followed His Majesty handed the list to His Majesty. After reading it, His Majesty laughed angrily, "So, the reason Xue Xuesong was slandered in the first place was because you didn't want to pay me back!"
Once a person's cake is passive, it is impossible for it not to be affected.
The money in the national treasury is the emperor's money.
The officials owed money and refused to pay it back, and slandered the officials of the Ministry of Revenue. The emperor could no longer tolerate it!
Because, hundreds of thousands of silver coins are at stake!
Unbeknownst to him, all the money in his treasury had been borrowed out. No wonder it was so difficult to allocate funds for disaster relief!
"You better give me an explanation!"
When His Majesty is angry, all officials are sad.
They immediately knelt on the ground and shouted to the emperor, "Your Majesty, this is all slander by the Regent. We are innocent!"
Unfortunately, the emperor, who was short of money, saw everyone as his debtor, so he roared, "Thank you for the courtesy! Investigate for me! Get to the bottom of it!"
"Your Majesty, Xue Xuesong is waiting for your summons at the door. I believe that Master Xue will give you some direction for investigating this case."
Xie Lixing lowered his head and spoke to the emperor.
The emperor frowned slightly, then nodded, "Let him in."
"Send it to Xue Xuesong!"
The eunuchs' voices were heard one after another, and soon, the voices came back again.
Next, he was dressed in dark grey cloth, with an upright posture. Even though he was nearly seventy years old, his body was still as straight as a pine tree.
He walked out from the light spot, came to Xie Lixing's side, and knelt down with his sleeves brushed.
"Your servant Xue Xuesong pays homage to Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty!" His voice sounded so loud that the emperor couldn't help but look at him.
The emperor turned around and looked at Xie Lixing.
"Lord Regent, you were the one who advocated for reopening the case. Now, tell us what Lord Xue has to say."
Xie Lixing stepped forward obediently, "Yes!"
In the court, the Xue family case was progressing in full swing. In the Regent's Palace, Yue Li was looking at Princess Weijia's invitation.
It was normal for the princess to host a flower-viewing banquet, and Yueli could go or not.
Especially, the other party is not the same kind of person as Yueli, so Yueli doesn't want to go even more.
Yueli let her maid push her away.
"Princess, the Prime Minister's wife entered the palace two days ago." Qin Yin whispered to her while combing Yueli's hair.
Yushiri tilted her head and listened to what Qinyin said, feeling a little surprised.
"How did you know?" This kind of thing should be confidential.
How did Qin Yin, who was staying in the palace like her, know about this?
When questioned by Yueli, Qinyin's expression became unnatural, and her voice became even lower. "I heard it from Old Seven."
Her voice was so soft that Yueli almost thought it was the buzz of a mosquito.
"How did you get to know him?"
“This servant wants to share the princess’ worries.
