Chapter 226: Persuasion
Qu Miaoling stopped the furious Situ Huaibo, and immediately said: "Your Highness, you can't go to her now, we want to clean her up, there is always a chance." β
"No, Miao Ling, I can't see her bullying you!" Situ Huaibo said affectionately.
Qu Miaoling was disgusted when she watched it.
However, on the surface, she still said: "Your Highness, what you should do most now is to be patient, Wen Qing's shallow matter, let's wait until later, besides, Mu Chi was plotted, presumably with his temper, he would not easily let go of Wen Qingruo's two people." β
Situ Huaibo thought about it too, he glanced back and saw that no one was looking here.
He said to Qu Miaoling: "Miaoling, Mu Chi's matter, you still have to keep an eye on it, in case something happens, notify me." β
"Your Highness, Miao Ling understands."
Qu Miaoling said and turned around to leave the circle of the prince and princess, and said hello to Situ Chaiyue, and she left.
As a result, he didn't go far before he was stopped by Princess Situ Chasing the Moon.
"Miao Ling, you come with me."
Pulling Qu Miaoling to a secluded place, she said, "Miaoling, do you know how your second brother is, he is nested in the palace and can't receive news from him. β
Qu Miaoling saw the eagerness on Princess Chasing the Moon's face, and the concern of the card fan did not seem to be fake, and besides, she still wanted to match the two in her heart, so she said directly: "Your Royal Highness Princess, don't worry, when I went back to the Jingkang Hou Mansion, I said a few words to my aunt, and she said that in my uncle's letter, everyone is fine, you can rest assured." β
"That's good, that's good." The princess chased the moon like a thief and ran away again.
He didn't let her tell her, "Miao Ling, if there is any news in the future, you must tell me." β
Qu Miaoling agreed with a smile.
She looked at the lively back of Princess Chasing the Moon, like a rabbit who had been cheerful, and the smile on her face was even more sincere.
But when she saw Situ Huaibo, who had a serious face and was drinking with her brothers, her face instantly pulled down.
Situ Huaibo's meaning just now was to take advantage of Mu Chi's liking for her to hear more about him.
She couldn't help but sneer.
This Situ Huaibo uses human means to be perfect.
Even the beauty of his fiancΓ©e, he can sacrifice.
Also, she noticed just now that when Situ Huaibo heard that Wen Qingqian was also involved in Wen Qingruo's scheme, his expression was as if he had heard something unbelievable.
It seems that he still has ideas about Wen Qingqian.
Qu Miaoling thought to herself.
In addition to this scandal, this banquet can be regarded as a joy for the guests and hosts.
Although a few people deliberately concealed it, but in the end, this is in the palace, how can the emperor and the queen not receive the news?
However, Mu Chi is the prince of Tubo, and they have something to ask him for, so they just turn a blind eye, besides, Mu Chi also said that in their Tubo, it is very common to live together before marriage, and they don't care.
As long as Wen Qingruo is finally married to Mu Chi, the friendly exchanges between the two countries will be a blessing for the Daling Dynasty.
After the banquet, Mu Chi left with a black face, he found the prime minister, and specially indicated that he wanted to go back to the prime minister's mansion with him.
Everyone else thinks that Mu Chi respects his father-in-law, and they all praise Mu Chi's filial piety, and also say that Prime Minister Wen is blessed, and Wen Hong is happy, and he doesn't even see Mu Chi's black face.
It wasn't until he returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion that Mu Chi's expression changed suddenly.
"Prime Minister Wen, if you don't want to marry your daughter to you, you can say it earlier, you don't have to calculate it so much against me."
Wen Hong listened to it with a question mark in his head.
"Your Royal Highness, where did you start with this?"
Mu Chi's breath kept panting, originally he was going to Qu Miaoling, but who knew that he slept with Wen Qingruo's woman, Qu Miaoling had a prejudice against herself, in this way, wouldn't she be even more tired of herself?
Mu Chi thought, his eyes were red.
Looking at the ignorant Wen Hongzhi, he didn't give him any interest in answering questions.
"Prime Minister Wen, I have no grudges or enmity with your Prime Minister, I thought that it would be good for any of us to get married, but I didn't expect that your methods would be so disgraceful!"
Mu Chi pointed at Wen Hongzhi's nose and scolded, although Wen Hongzhi intended to win over Mu Chi, but he had been sitting in the position of Yipin for a long time, his power was monstrous, and he was above 10,000 people under one person, where would he tolerate the little prince of a small country pointing at his nose and scolding.
He also lowered his face, "Your Highness, let's not say that we are already married, my Wenhong is above board, and I will never do anything to plot against you." β
"You won't? Could it be that your two daughters can't direct and act on their own? β
What the? Two daughters?
Prime Minister Wen kept a straight face and froze.
"Your good daughter, sleep with me naked!" Mu Chi almost shouted.
Naked!
Sleep together!
Wen Hongzhi's eyes didn't blink, and his pupils contracted a few words.
"Your Highness, don't worry, I will definitely give you an explanation for this matter."
After sending Mu Chi away, Wen Hongzhi shouted with a dark face: "Call the second miss to me!" β
This sound was extremely cold, and it scared the little guy into trembling.
After Wen Qingruo came back with his mother, his face was pale, and he didn't look like a person.
Wang was very worried in his heart, and asked several times, but Wen Qingruo's mouth was very tight, and she didn't say a word.
"Mother, I've already accepted my fate."
Today, she tried her best, but she couldn't plot against Qu Miaoling.
And her body is also dirty, and it is impossible to marry Situ Huajue. When she returned to her courtyard, she was like a dead fish on a sticky board, without the slightest anger.
Hearing that his father sent someone, Wen Qingruo was not surprised, "Father." Entering the study, she shouted in a low voice.
"Get on your knees."
Wen Qingruo did not hesitate, knelt down directly, his knees touched his bottom shirt, and there was a crisp sound.
Wen Hongzhi slowly walked from behind the desk, and he stared at his second daughter who was kneeling on the ground, his eyebrows were cold.
"You say, what's going on in the palace today?"
Wen Qingruo was already prepared before he came back.
Her face was still pale, but relieved.
If her father had killed her today, then she wouldn't have to marry Mu Chi, the bastard who took advantage of the danger.
"I did it, and if my father wants to punish me, punish me."
She hung her head slightly, trembling with excitement.
She wanted to feel the pain so much, if Wen Hongzhi did it, maybe she wouldn't be so uncomfortable in her heart.
She felt a gust of palm wind whistle, but the expected slap didn't come down.
She tilted her head and stuck her father, and the other party's hand was raised high, as if the slap would fall in the next moment, but he held back.
Wen Hongzhi blushed and asked, "Say, are there any accomplices!" β
She replied categorically: "No, it's all my daughter's idea alone, and it has nothing to do with others." β
"It's a good one that has nothing to do with others!" Wen Hongzhi shouted.
"I'll give you another chance, say, are there any accomplices!"
Wen Qingruo shook his head firmly again, "Father, there really isn't." β
Wen Qingqian helped her, and stood up when she was making a fool of herself, at this time, she couldn't expose her.
And when they came back, the two said that if something happened to her, she would help her take care of the Wang family.
Wen Qingqian agreed.
"Don't say yes, come on, go and call the eldest lady to me!"
Wen Hongzhi raised his hands, his arms were trembling, obviously angry.
"Father, it has nothing to do with the eldest sister, it's all Qingruo's plan alone, it really has nothing to do with the eldest sister!" Wen Qingruo panicked, she took a few steps on her knees, but was thrown away by Wen Hongzhi.
"Didn't you say that it has nothing to do with your eldest sister, I just asked urgently, and there won't be a piece of meat!"
The little guy pulled his legs and ran to Wen Qingqian's yard, "Miss, the master is invited." β
After coming back tonight, she felt that her father's expression was wrong, she received the news that Wen Qingruo had been called over, and he hadn't come out until now, it was not difficult for her to guess that Wen Hongzhi probably knew about the conspiracy of the two.
For the sake of today's plan, it is better to admit it, and it is not good for yourself to die.
Thinking like this, she walked into the study with her head held high and a flat face.
She knelt down directly without any explanation, "Father, it's the daughter's fault, and I ask the father to punish her." β
Wen Qingqian is his favorite daughter, otherwise he would not have sent her to the Wude Houfu when he was in decline, nor would he have picked her up after he gained power.
But what Wen Qingqin did today is too substandard, since it is a plot against Mu Chi and Qu Miaoling, it should be done completely, now everyone knows that if Wen Qing is ruined, how else can he resolve it, fortunately, the emperor and the queen turned a blind eye and didn't make a big deal about it, otherwise he would have no face in front of all the officials in the capital.
"Qingqian, your sister is getting married, do you have to make her reputation stink before she gets married?"
"Father, no, my eldest sister also wants to help me." Wen Qingruo hurriedly explained, if she hadn't begged, Wen Qingqian would not have done such a stupid thing, it was all his own puppet.
When Wen Qingqian came in just now, he directly admitted that he conspired with him, Wen Qingruo was surprised at the same time, and her feelings about Wen Qingqian changed suddenly, she used to feel that she was jealous of her father's favor, but now it seems that her eldest sister still has her in her heart, otherwise she would not sacrifice her life to help her.
Wen Qingruo's tears of emotion were about to fall.
I must be good to my sister, she thought secretly, and then she protected Wen Qingqian's body and said: "Father, you misunderstood, the eldest sister is talking nonsense to help me, this matter is my own idea, and the eldest sister has not participated in the slightest." β
"It's hard-mouthed!"
Wen Hongzhi shouted.
"Do you know who you are plotting against, one is the prince of Tubo, the other is the lord of An Hui, the princess appointed by the emperor personally to the second prince, and it may be the future queen, haven't you thought about what awaits us in the Hou Mansion if the matter is exposed?"
Wen Hongzhi shouted loudly.
The two girls stood on the ground and said nothing.
"But father, my daughter doesn't want to marry Mu Chi, you are in charge of Qingruo without permission, can't Qingruo resist with her face? Qingruo just didn't want to marry him, and swore not to marry! Wen Qingruo cried and shouted.
Wen Hongyi slapped the table and shouted, "Wen Qingruo, I'll tell you that even if you die, you are still Mu Chi's woman!" β
"Come on, put the eldest lady and the second lady in the ancestral hall for me, don't admit your mistakes, don't let them out!"
The little maid and the maid came in, these two young ladies are the heart of the lady, and the eldest lady is the heart of the master, and none of them dare to offend.
"Eldest Miss, Second Miss, please."
"What's polite, press them over for me, don't admit your mistakes, it's not my Wen Hongzhi's daughter!" Wen Hongzhi shouted again.
The subordinates had no choice but to gently press the two of them to kneel in the ancestral hall.
"Madam, it's not good, the old man punished the second lady and the eldest lady to go to the ancestral hall, and now they have been escorted away."
"What?" Wang hurriedly ran to Wen Hongzhi's study, and saw Wen Hongzhi's eyes red, and he was sitting on the Taishi chair with his legs crossed.
It looks very angry.
"Master, why do you want to punish Qingruo to kneel in the ancestral hall, my daughter's body is just better, this toss, I'm afraid it will be bad again."
When Wen Hongzhi heard this, the corners of his mouth hooked up a mocking arc, "You don't know? Your good daughter slept with Mu Chi! β
What the?
A bolt from the blue.
Wang's body shook and fell to the ground, and the maids behind him didn't have time to help.
Wen Hongzhi returned to the room angrily, unwilling to look at Wang again.
Wang was supported by the maid in the yard, along the way, her expression was confused, her mouth was open and closed, she didn't know what she was talking about, the license maid was so close, she didn't hear a word.
