Chapter 202: The Heart of a Child

At noon, the emperor's will arrived at the Qi Hou Mansion, Qi Hai was in the house, everything else was easy to say, just like Qi Dai, what should I do, how can this bear enter the palace to face the emperor, can that one be so foolish!

"Master Hou, can't you ask Brother Dai for a leave?" Zhang Xuelan looked at Qi Hai who was spinning in circles in front of her, and looked dizzy.

"Have you ever seen someone ask the Emperor for leave? Call you to go, even if you die, you have to carry the corpse over! Qi Hai talked to Zhang Xuelan, finally stood for a moment, and continued to circle after speaking.

"How can Brother Dai enter the palace like this, after facing the saint, he will be punished by such a appearance, and it will not affect the Qi family..."Zhang Xuelan stopped saying half of it, mainly because she felt that it was not good for a grandmother to say this.

"Hey! It's all idiots! After Qi Hai finished speaking, he sat heavily on his chair, and finally stopped spinning in circles.

"What does Master Hou mean, Brother Dai has moved his mind that shouldn't be moved?" Zhang Xuelan seemed to understand something, and opened her mouth wide in surprise.

"Then what do you think, what can it be?" Qi Hai scratched his head and scratched his ears, it was uncomfortable anywhere!

"Master Hou. Otherwise, you will go to the palace to find Ling'er and see if you can think of a way. Zhang Xuelan reminded in a low voice.

"Ling'er, who I just saw in the morning, ah! I was led astray by you, it's Her Majesty the Empress! Pay attention to what you say! "Qi Hai is now an ant on a hot pot.

"In the morning, the emperor did not announce your entry into the palace. Isn't this Brother Dai like that, Ling'er should have a way. "Zhang Xuelan doesn't want that Brother Dai to affect the whole family.

"Did you ask last time you went back to your parents' house? I haven't found anything about the emperor's confession, and I don't think I'll be able to do it for long. Qi Hai seemed to suddenly remember.

"A little father-in-law who has died, how do you ask me to go back to my parents' house, how do you speak, they are all born in a big family, who will recognize that kind of relative! No! Zhang Xuelan wouldn't go back to her parents' house to ask for such a thing.

"When I come back, my position as a marquis is gone, you will not be a big family, you are the wife of a sinner! And that kind of relative! When the time comes, if you become a sinner, you will not even be as good as that kind of relative. Look at the fate of those princes, how long has it been, and you have forgotten? Qi Hai slapped the table and yelled.

"What are you yelling at me, I'm about to enter the palace, and it's too late for me to ask you now. I don't know anyone, I'm dead, it's a homicide, who do you think will admit to having relatives with him! Zhang Xuelan was frightened by Qi Hai's roar, and wiped her tears with a handkerchief, saying that she looked so pitiful.

"I'm going to find Brother Dai!" Qi Hai got up and left, let's go and see the situation of Qi Dai and then say what to do in the afternoon, if it doesn't work, I really go to Ling'er, anyway, in the eyes of the emperor now, in the eyes of the whole court, he and Qi Dai are Ling'er's iron fans, don't ask when to go again at this time!

Qi Hai paced to Qi Dai's study, Qi Dai held the handkerchief given to him by Taoxin last time, he always thought it was Ling'er's, he didn't speak or move in the palm of his hand, and looked straight ahead.

"Brother Dai..."Qi Hai called out to him in a low voice.

Qi Dai didn't hear any back.

"Listen to me first, there is something urgent, otherwise my father would not want to come to you." Qi Hai stood there rubbing his hands, remembering the last time Qi Rong went on a hunger strike at home because of the marriage, what kind of sons did he give birth to, Qi Rong's hunger strike seemed to have just happened, but, hey! "Brother Dai, you are in a daze and stay until you go home later, the emperor has someone to pass the word, and the two of us are about to enter the palace to see the emperor... You look like this, how can you do it if you go to collide! ”

"Father, whose house are you preparing to call me on a blind date?" Qi Dai suddenly seemed to come to life, and this was the sentence that split his head.

"The eldest daughter of Uncle Ding's family is not a simple family, although it is a concubine, his family only has a son, no daughter, and it was rumored that the daughter of the concubine was pretended to be Ling'er..."

"I want to marry a concubine." Qi Dai whispered.

"What?" Qi Hai didn't hear clearly.

"I said, let's go into the palace, father." Qi Dai tucked his handkerchief into his chest.

"Hey, okay, good." Qi Hai hurriedly walked out with Qi Dai, hey, he was finally able to survive.

When the two entered the palace early, the emperor was still taking a lunch break, and Qi Hai and Qi Dai were waiting outside the emperor's gate.

"Father, what is going on this time?" Since Qi Dai entered the palace, he has been the same as before.

"What else could it be, isn't it about the case? It's all a shame to die, for two bunches of grapes, to make it like this. He was also ridiculed. Qi Hai explained to Qi Dai in a whisper.

"Didn't my grandmother come home and ask?" Qi Dai couldn't ask in a whisper.

"Ask what, you can't avoid such a thing, who will admit it again!" Qi Hai is also the lowest voice.

"Then it's up to the emperor to say it." Qi Dai didn't know, he had been in the Criminal Department for the past few days, but Qi Hai didn't ask him to ask about the case again, so he didn't know anything.

After the emperor got up for lunch break, the two entered the palace, and after a salute, the emperor also gave a seat, which seemed polite, and it should not be a bad thing. Qi Hai actually has no bottom in his heart.

"I called the two of you here, I just want to hear you talk about the case in detail, Ling'er suddenly said that she wanted to close the case today, and she didn't tell me anything about the result, why did you close the case?!" The Empress took a sip of tea.

"Returning to His Majesty the Empress, when the minister returned to His Majesty the Empress in the morning, he wanted to close the case, but he just said that the case was closed on the surface, but he still had to investigate it behind the scenes, because no one admitted the three possible relatives confessed by His Majesty, and no one would admit it on the cusp of this kind of storm, and the minister told His Majesty the Empress that the case was closed to reduce their attention." Qi Hai gave himself a whole set of high-sounding rhetoric, but in fact, he just felt that it was too shameless, so he had to close the case first.

If you don't see through it, the emperor won't expose him, so he turned his face and asked Brother Dai: "What are you doing looking for Ling'er in the morning?" ”

Qi Dai was going to come with Qi Hai for the case today, but he didn't expect the emperor to ask him why he went to Ling'er, how can this be answered, I miss her, find a reason to take a look?! Looking for death. So how do you say that?

Qi Hai didn't think of how to answer, and looked frightened. Just wanted to speak, Qi Hai said first.

"Your Majesty, Qi Dai wants to ask for the eldest daughter-in-law of the uncle's family, and he specially asks Her Majesty the Empress to give him a marriage." Qi Hai doesn't even have a draft when he lies now.

"So I'm embarrassed not to say it for a long time?" The emperor seemed to be smiling.

"Your Majesty said that Her Majesty said that Uncle Guo and his wife had to agree, so on the evening of August 15, Uncle Guo said that he would not come to the banquet and would see his prospective son-in-law at home..."

"You see, your father has already decided on your marriage, and I am still ready to let you enter the palace!" The emperor seems to be joking, and he doesn't know if it's true or not.

"The words of the matchmaker of the parents." Qi Dai knelt down and hurriedly continued: "Your Majesty, if you give the minister some time, the minister will definitely find out about this case, can you give the minister a favor?" ”

"Dai'er, it's your duty to investigate the case, what more grace do you need?!" Qi Hai was afraid that he would come nonsense.

"My brother is an infatuated person, at that time, he went on a hunger strike for Her Majesty the Empress, and the Qi family is also an infatuated person, Qi Dai thinks that if he can really find out this case, the minister's marriage wants to be his own decision, can he ask His Majesty the Empress to give the minister this grace?" Qi Dai moved Qi Rong out.

"It seems that Brother Dai didn't take a fancy to the niece of the Queen Mother's family, hahaha, the heart belongs?! Well, too, it's not impossible that the Imperial Academy was commemorated this year. The Empress couldn't laugh in his seat.

"No, it's just the freedom that the minister wants." In fact, the heart belongs, but I don't dare to say it, so I can only retreat to the next best thing, saying that I want to be free.

"The last person who was so infatuated and couldn't get his beloved, I really only know Shi Mi!" The Emperor suddenly made a face, as if the person who was laughing just now was not him.

Qi Hai knelt down in fright, the emperor's words were too obvious. This is comparing his family to the Shi family.

"Emperor, Huangkou Xiaoer's words, don't take them seriously." Qi Hai was scared to death.

"Do you think that with Ling'er protecting you, you can do anything to blackmail? Do you still want to blackmail me to handle cases? The emperor angrily threw the cup in his hand and almost smashed it into Qi Dai. He kneeled there, dead and silent, not daring to move.

"I know what you are doing at Ling'er today, saying that those who have and don't come to frame me? I'm that easy to bully? If you tell the truth, maybe I'll be right! It's all lies, one lie after another, to deceive whom! I don't think you two have spoken a word of truth since you two came in! Ling'er won't let me move you, but everything must have a degree! Lies that come out of your mouth are full of lies! You don't want to do it! It's not good! But there are a lot of lies! The emperor smashed the cup and roared, and Qi Hai below was frightened and scattered, Qi Dai was like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water, without any waves.

The emperor pointed at Qi Dai's face and said to Qi Hai: "Look, you haven't been able to stand up to your son, you see that you are scared, people are just not afraid, do you think Ling'er will definitely protect your family?!" I really can't touch your house, can I?! Qi Rong, who died outside the city, has become your family's gold medal for avoiding death, right! ”

Speaking of Qi Rong, Qi Hai's heart is not a taste, why did his son die, everyone knows the meaning of the eldest son, everyone also knows it, the emperor said that he was willing to die his son in exchange for this gold medal for avoiding death.

"Your Majesty!" Qi Hai shouted old tears: "The Qi family has never thought about relying on Rong'er to get a gold medal for avoiding death, Rong'er's death is difficult for anyone to accept, the pain of losing the eldest son, the pain of the white-haired person sending the black-haired person, Qi Hai has experienced it, so he doesn't want to send another child in." Whether it is a son-in-law or a concubine, they are all the children of the minister, the minister is not a general who goes out on an expedition, the minister is just a loving father, each child is raised by the minister himself to watch him grow up, he can't raise his godfather's fault, Dai Erchen didn't teach well, and I hope Your Majesty will atone for his sins! It's just that Dai'er is not a pampered and arrogant child, in the eyes of the minister, the minister's children are all good. I am willing to bear all the mistakes on the way to growth for every child of the minister! ”

The emperor was not angry when he heard the truth like this, and said happily: "Look, if you tell the truth earlier, I won't be angry." Ling'er can't sit down in the Lord, the Queen Mother doesn't agree, Ling'er doesn't agree, I can't mess with the mandarin duck spectrum, right?! I also know Qi Shilang's thoughts, and I have heard a little about Ling'er today, Ling'er has already made the decision, so it can only be like this. If you want to enter the palace, I won't stop you, as long as Ling'er is willing, I can be the queen mother's master. ”

"The minister doesn't, but he doesn't want to have His Majesty in his heart, but he wants to marry another woman, which is unfair to anyone." Qi Dai finally said something.

Qi Hai originally thought that if he married a wife, he might get better, but when he heard Qi Dai say this, he was a little distressed, moved his body, and patted Qi Dai's shoulder: "Father won't force you anymore..."

"Thank you, father." Qi Dai knelt and turned around and kowtowed to Qi Hai.

"Get up, talk about the case, you go home and talk slowly, my empress is not your family, if you have nothing to do, go to Ling'er's for a turn, what kind of place should you be!" The emperor stretched out his hand and asked the little eunuch for another cup of tea.

Qi Dai helped Qi Hai to stand up, the father and son returned to their seats to do a good job, and now they started to get down to business, Qi Hai said first: "The minister still thinks that the case will be closed first, and then the minister will investigate in private, those people will not be put back, and it is not too late to release the real murderer when he finds out, how can a eunuch make those three people do things for him and then kill them, this is not logical, there must be someone in the middle who has the ability, power and convenient means." ”

"Then you've been speculating for a long time?" The Emperor asked rhetorically.

"It's not all without eyebrows, this middleman hasn't been found yet, and the middleman who strings them together with the knife father-in-law. That's why, the one who killed the one who didn't give the grapes was, why all three of them had to be killed, and now I can't figure out where the grapes went. "Qi Hai has only made any progress in interrogating those useless people on the periphery in the past few days.

"You Laurie let it go, there is no information, since the case is closed, the obvious points have been done, all of them have been released, and they are all pushed on the knife." The emperor still compromised, and the face of the courtiers is also face, isn't it, who can not love face.

"Yes, the minister will go back and close the case." Qi Hai was ready to take Qi Dai to leave.

"You go, Qi Shilang will stay and talk to me." The Emperor waved his hand at Qi Hai and told him to retreat.

Qi Hai was a little worried, looked at Qi Dai, Qi Dai looked at Qi Hai with a smile, meaning you can rest assured. Qi Hai slowly retreated.

"Qi Shilang, you should also know and hear of that person in Shimi, don't repeat the mistakes of the past, if Ling'er doesn't like it, stay away from her, Ling'er won't hate you, right?" The emperor's words can only be pointed, and they can only be said about this.

"Yes, the minister understands, Your Majesty Xie ordered it. Your Majesty, who is not young and frivolous, and does not follow his wishes, is the only one who can protect himself now, thank Your Majesty for your fulfillment. Qi Dai knelt down and kowtowed.

"Yes, who hasn't been young and frivolous, but if you can maintain that pure heart when you are old, it will be perfect in this life." When the emperor said these words, he remembered a person, this person was very similar to the current Qi Dai. "You go down, don't go to Ling'er again if it's okay, I heard that the imperial husband is also a jealous person, you better protect yourself first, the imperial husband has bullied you not once or twice, so I won't remind you anymore."

"Yes, the minister retreats, His Majesty the Emperor is safe." Qi Dai slowly retreated, Qi Hai was still waiting for him in the vestibule, father's love has always been like this, don't say it, just do it.
