Chapter 196: Loss of face

Liu Ziqing got out of the carriage and looked up at the majestic gate and plaque of the Nine Palaces, with a hint of sarcasm on the corner of her mouth.

Of course, Jun Qian didn't come to greet her in person, he sent the second elder to wait for Liu Ziqing at the door, which had already given her a lot of face.

The second elder greeted him and saluted, "Madame the palace master, the palace master sent me here to welcome the lady back. ”

The others saluted Liu Ziqing one after another: "Welcome to the palace master's wife." ”

Liu Ziqing regained her dignified and noble appearance, and the smile on her face was also the appearance of a standard aristocratic lady, and the whole person was like wearing a disguised mask in an instant, "Get up." ”

Mu Liyue also came with Liu Ziqing this time, nominally to escort Liu Ziqing back to the Nine Palaces, but in fact to inquire about Yueli's news.

The Liu family sent people to look for several days but couldn't find any trace of Yueli, and Liu Zihui's side couldn't delay any longer, so they could only come to the Nine Folds Palace to find a way to inquire, because they all knew that Yueli was invited by the five elders of the Ninefold Palace.

Mu Liyue looked at the crowd around her, looking at Liu Ziqing and the others, all of whom wanted to say something but didn't dare to speak, after all, the Nine Layers Palace was the biggest force in the entire Heavenly Continent, and they didn't dare to offend at all.

Occasionally, a few people's whispered discussions were also ignored by everyone, for them, waiting here was just to see the excitement, and they didn't really care about the things between Liu Ziqing and Mo Jue.

Mu Liyue glanced in a certain direction, and an angry voice immediately sounded in the crowd: "Didn't you say that the palace master's wife rebelled, and killed the former lady and persecuted the son of the previous lady?

Another voice then shouted: "That is, the young palace master was unconscious by this palace master's wife, and now the meridians are all destroyed, and the palace master is not the master of the young palace master?"

"Did the Liu family give the palace master any benefits, so that he didn't even care about the life or death of his own son?"

One voice after another sounded in the crowd, all accusing the Ninefold Palace of shielding the palace master's wife, and ignoring the young palace master who had been missing for more than ten years before returning.

Ordinary people were surrounded by these voices, and they also spoke one after another, in fact, they didn't have a good impression of the Liu family, they relied on the relationship with the Nine Palaces by marriage, and often disregarded people's lives, but the Liu family was huge, and they didn't dare to provoke it.

Now that someone is taking the lead, they will just say a word one by one, anyway, it is impossible for the Nine Palaces to arrest all of them.

When the Second Elder and Liu Ziqing heard these voices, their faces instantly became ugly, no matter who heard these accusing words, they would not be happy.

The second elder spoke: "Everyone, the things that came out before about the rebellion of the palace master's wife and the framing of the palace master are all misunderstandings, the Nine Palaces have already been investigated, and these are not related to the Liu family and the palace master's wife, please don't spread the rumors." ”

Many people slowly silenced after the second elder spoke, and they only dared to echo and say a few words, not daring to offend the Nine Folds Palace and the Liu family too much.

Suddenly, someone in the crowd asked: "Now that the Nine Palaces have been clarified, who is the person who harmed the young palace master, you can tell me." ”

The second elder was speechless for a moment, he understood that someone was deliberately fanning the flames in the crowd, he stared at the direction where the voice came from, and made a look at the people behind him, and the people behind him understood, and quietly walked towards the crowd, but unfortunately there were too many people in the crowd, and they couldn't tell who was just speaking for a while.

Then the crowd quieted down, and no one spoke out again, but they saw that the second elder was silent, and he didn't say who was behind the scenes, and the eyes that looked at Liu Ziqing and the people of the Nine Palaces were full of suspicion.

At this time, Tang Lao's chubby body walked out of the Nine Palaces quickly, and his chubby face was obviously full of anger.

As soon as Tang Lao came out, he said to Liu Ziqing in a voice that everyone could hear: "Liu Ziqing, no matter what method your Liu family uses to make the palace master let you go, but you killed your predecessor, and you also caused the young palace master to first have fire poison in his body, and then his meridians were destroyed, these are facts, don't think that we are all perfunctory." ”

As soon as Tang Lao's voice fell, the people present were in an uproar, everyone knew the five elders of the Nine Folds Palace, because he was not like others who relied on his status, but was very friendly to people, so most people believed what came out of his mouth.

At this moment, the crowd instantly exploded like a pot.

When the second elder saw Tang Lao appear, he knew that the situation was not good, and he didn't have time to stop him from saying those words, so he could only let people go in and report the situation to the palace master.

He pulled Tang Lao and said with some annoyance: "Fifth Elder, don't forget your identity, what good is it for you to do this?"

Tang Lao said righteously: "Second Elder, what I said is the truth, the young palace master is still lying in bed, and when he wakes up, how do you want him to accept that he has become a wasted person? ”

Liu Ziqing's face was even more ugly, especially the eyes of the people around her who looked at her were full of doubt and disdain, what she regretted most now was to follow the advice of the Liu family to return to the Nine Palaces in a dignified manner, now it is good, she feels like a clown who is being watched by everyone.

But at this time, she couldn't open her mouth to argue for herself, not to mention whether everyone would believe it, and she couldn't say those words at the gate of the Nine Palaces with her identity, at this moment she really hated Jun Qian and the people of the Liu family in her heart.

Mu Liyue looked at this farce and let out a breath in her heart: Liu Ziqing, Jun Qian, this is just the beginning.

The idea of inciting the masses came from Mu Liyue, don't Jun Qian, they love face the most? Then she will make them lose face.

After the guards sent by the Second Elder to inform Jun Qian came back, he said to the Fifth Elder, "Fifth Elder, the palace master asked you to go over and find him. ”

Tang Lao looked at Liu Ziqing as if he hadn't heard it, and looked like he was resolutely not allowed to enter the gate of the Nine Palaces.

Liu Ziqing had the heart to kill Tang Lao at this time, she always knew that Tang Lao was Jun Qingyan's supporter, but she didn't expect him to ignore Jun Qian's order for Jun Qingyan, and directly tore his face with her and the Liu family in front of so many people.

She tried her best to control her expression, but her voice was still a little distorted: "Fifth Elder, the palace master said that those things were misunderstood before, don't you even believe the palace master's words?"

Tang Lao understood the threat in her words, but he seemed to let go, and said: "It's not that I don't believe in the palace master, I don't believe you and the Liu family, I saw with my own eyes that the young master of the Liu family, Liu Zihui, injured the young palace master with a strange fire, although the palace master was blinded by you for a while, but I will not let the young palace master be injured in vain." ”

As soon as the word "alien fire" came out, the spies of other forces mixed in the crowd immediately quietly left the place and went back to tell Liu Zihui about the alien fire.

Liu Ziqing's pupils shrank, Liu Zihui was pregnant with a strange fire, the Liu family had been blocking the news, how could Tang Lao know about it?

She subconsciously looked at Mu Liyue, as if she was asking what to do, of course she wasn't worried about Liu Zihui and the Liu family, but if this news leaked out, then she and the Liu family would not be able to cover the matter of framing Jun Qingyan, then her efforts for so many years would be in vain.

Mu Liyue was indifferent in her heart, but she also showed a little anxious look on her face, and said, "Fifth Elder, don't talk nonsense here, our young master is already in retreat, and it is impossible to do anything to hurt the young palace master." ”

Mu Liyue's words were ostensibly excusing Liu Zihui, but smart people could hear the implications, firstly, she did not deny that Liu Zihui was harboring strange fire, and secondly, she did not come up with any substantial evidence to prove that Liu Zihui had nothing to do with this matter.

The second elder was about to get angry on the side, and in front of so many people, he couldn't directly arrest Tang Lao, if he did, wouldn't it just mean that they had a ghost in their hearts?

He sent several people to ask Jun Qian how to deal with this matter, but the people who went have not returned for a long time, and now the situation is obviously more serious than he imagined, and the people present are not stupid, they just dare not say it directly because of the status of the Nine Palaces, but their determined eyes have explained everything.

After today's farce, the prestige of the Nine Palaces will definitely be reduced, and the news of shielding the current lady to murder the former wife and the young palace master will definitely spread, and the reputation of the Nine Palaces and the palace master will ......

The second elder couldn't help but touch his neck just thinking about Jun Qian's reaction when he heard the news, and he always felt that the Nine Folds Palace would be unpeaceful in the future.

Jun Qian's side was indeed as the second elder thought, as soon as he heard what was happening in front of the gate of the Nine Folds Palace, his face turned blue with anger, and the guards who had not returned for a long time also became victims of his venting.

He can't wait to kill Tang Lao's bastard now, the matter has been suppressed, and being made such a fuss by Tang Lao, the Nine Palaces and him have lost face.

But the most important thing now is to deal with the situation in front of you, how to save the Kuju Palace and his reputation.

At the gate of the Nine Palaces, everyone was reluctant to listen to the words of the second elder and leave when they watched this big drama, and Tang Lao kept blocking at the gate, and the scene was at a stalemate for a while.

At this moment, Jun Qian appeared, he pretended not to know anything, and asked, "Second Elder, what happened here?" but looked at Tang Lao with anger in his eyes.

The second elder told everything that had just happened, and then he retreated to the back and handed over the matter to Jun Qian.

Jun Qian looked at the people present and said loudly: "Everyone, about this matter, the deity will not shield anyone, the Nine Palaces will investigate the truth of the matter in detail, no matter what, Qing Yan is the only son of the deity, he was killed like this, the deity will not let go of the murderer." ”

Then he said to Tang Lao: "Fifth Elder, the deity knows that you did this kind of thing for Qing Yan's sake, for Qing Yan's sake, the deity will not care about you this time, you go and take care of Qing Yan." ”

He looked at Liu Ziqing: "Madam, as for what the Fifth Elder said, Young Master Liu burned Qing Yan with a strange fire, causing him to be poisoned by fire, the Liu family needs to give evidence to prove Young Master Liu's innocence, now you go in with the deity first." ”

After he said these words, indicating that the Nine Palaces would not shield the Liu family and Liu Ziqing, nor would they let the young palace master suffer any wronged attitude, he asked the second elder to deal with the situation at the door, and he took Liu Ziqing, Mu Liyue and the others inside.

Tang Lao is no longer making trouble, anyway, their goal has been achieved, and then they are waiting for the show to start.
