Chapter Seventy-Five: Tearing the Skin

The flesh on Chen Tianfu's face was piled up, and he looked at the queen in disbelief.

After the early dynasty, Chen Tianfu was left by the queen in Jinhua Palace, and he thought that there was something good to tell him, but the queen said that he was scolded by him, and he couldn't marry Qiu Yi because he had to force Chen Tianfu to marry Qiuyi.

has already given the old bustard 3,000 taels of silver, how could Chen Tianfu regret it halfway. What's more, he had already made up his mind at Shangguan Yu, and Chen Tianfu couldn't wait to see Shangguan Yu's heart-rending and painful appearance. If he said that he would not marry now, wouldn't he lose face.

"No, no." Chen Tianfu shook his head again and again. "I have to marry Qiuyi." After that, he sat on the throne, where to take care of the queen's identity.

The queen's face was gloomy, if it weren't for Chen Tianfu being her own brother, and what he did implicated her reputation, the queen wouldn't have bothered to care about such a waste.

"She is a prostitute and comes from a humble background, how can she be worthy of the Chen Mansion?" The queen frowned tightly, and her attitude was very resolute. "Maybe in the future, this palace will have a brother and daughter-in-law who is a prostitute in Yihong Courtyard, so that you will be happy?"

Chen Tianfu glanced at the queen impatiently, and then his eyes rolled, and he changed to a courteous and flattering appearance. "Eldest sister, you can't think like that. That Zongzheng Mansion has been fighting with us for so many years, and I was also so angry that I went to rob Shangguan Yu's sweetheart and let him watch his beloved woman marry someone else. ”

"You said, I am obviously suppressing, worried that the emperor will seize the handle of the Chen family, and if I do this, isn't it also a turn to help the Chen family teach a lesson back to Zongzheng Mansion. You can't just keep silent. ”

According to Chen Tianfu, he can even have a reputation for taking into account the overall situation and thinking about the Chen family. The queen is extremely angry.

"In short, you can't tie this kiss." No matter what Chen Tianfu said, the queen just rejected the matter of the two getting married. She couldn't pull off this face, but how could a lowly prostitute enter the door of the Chen family.

"Then I have to tie the knot?" Chen Tianfu puffed up with the queen. It is impossible to say that he has no intention of Qiu Yi at all, but compared to Shangguan Yu, Chen Tianfu is just playing on the spot.

"Give me back the five thousand taels of silver first." The queen said coldly, she picked up the teacup, took a sip and put it down. The entire Chen family is in charge of her, how could the queen hand over the matter to Chen Tianfu to deal with.

"Sister!" Chen Tianfu couldn't sit still, and stood up busily. "You're not being kind! Although 5,000 taels is a lot of money, don't you have any strength, so I'll use ......."

"Shut up!" Seeing Chen Tianfu chattering, the queen almost said the confidential matter, and hurriedly replied, asking Chen Tianfu to obediently put down the conversation.

"If you feel embarrassed, you can find a few more daughters for your brother, but Qiuyi, I have to marry, and I have to carry a sedan chair to marry through the door, so that Shangguan Yu can see it." Chen Tianfu made up his mind, and left Jinhua Palace after speaking.

The queen's hands were clenched into fists, and her cheeks were already flushed with anger.

"The Queen." The palace maid next to her saw it and cautiously wanted to comfort her.

"Get out!"

As he approached the queen, he was suddenly shocked by a roll. The frightened little palace maid stood in place and walked not to go.

The queen has always been stable and aware of the overall situation, not only in the eyes of everyone, but also in front of the emperor. Such a thunderous appearance, the palace maids of Jinhua Palace are very rare.

"Get out of here." The queen roared again, this time with the eunuchs and maids in the entire palace. They didn't dare to slack off, and in an instant, only the queen was left in Jinhua Palace.

In the end, the queen sat on the seat, she thought carefully in her mind, and felt more and more that Chen Tianfu and Qiuyi's family affair could not be agreed. She is the queen, her younger brother married a prostitute in Yihong Courtyard, where is the only loss of the queen's face, and even the emperor's face is a little unbearable.

If the emperor is angry, he will suffer.

Chen Tianfu is accustomed to being a gentleman, and he has never thought about the overall situation when doing things.

"Qinghu." The queen suddenly shouted softly.

As soon as the words fell, a man dressed in black came out of the screen and stood in front of the queen.

Qinghu is one of the most powerful cronies beside the queen, except for the queen and Jun Fenglin, no third party knows about his existence, and it is about to come when Chen Tianfu agrees to marry Qiuyi, and this matter cannot be delayed.

"The subordinates are here." Qinghu's face was grim, and he obediently waited for the queen's orders.

"Find a chance to kill the autumn mood of Yihong Courtyard." The queen's tone was very disapproving, as if she was saying something innocuous and insignificant. How many people she has killed in her life, and where do she still think about who lost their lives.

"Okay." Qinghu is categorical, and he should go down without hesitation.

"Make no mistake." The queen looked serious, and after saying that, she glanced at Qinghu, and saw that his face was firm, and she was relieved.

As a joke, the person she hasn't even met will become her brother and daughter-in-law in a few days. The queen really didn't understand, whether Chen Tianfu was thick-skinned enough or a toad who wanted to eat swan meat.

In an instant, Qinghu left Jinhua Palace.

The queen is busy with the winter solstice banquet these days, and since she reported this plan to the emperor, the emperor is very happy. However, all the affairs inside and outside the banquet were handled by the queen.

Fortunately, Zhang Lanxin often came over to help, and the queen had a right-hand man, and she was much more handy.

But for a few days, the queen did not see Qinghu come back.

"What?" The queen stood up at once, and looked at the kneeling man in front of her with wide eyes. He was dressed in the same clothes as Qinghu, and he was another close confidant of the queen.

Qinghu did not return for a long time, and the queen was worried. According to Qinghu's behavior, the result will be given within three days, not to mention that what she asked Qinghu to kill this time is just a woman who has no power to restrain the chicken. The queen sent another person to investigate the situation, but the sad news came that Qinghu had died.

"How is that possible? What did Qinghu look like when he died? Do you see clearly? The queen still couldn't believe it.

"It's true, Queen Mother, when his subordinates found Qinghu in the mass grave behind the mountain in the south of the city, he was already out of breath. No wounds were found on the skin, and his subordinates suspected that Qinghu should have been poisoned. Black Hawk told the queen what he had investigated.

After listening to Black Hawk's speculation, the queen's face was dull and she hadn't stretched for a long time.

"It can't be done by Autumn, right?" How can the queen guess, I'm afraid she can't guess Qiuyi. Although Qinghu died halfway in order to kill Qiuyi, Yihongyuan is in the north of the city, no matter how she poisons Qinghu, just dragging Qinghu to the mass grave will not be discovered, I am afraid that it is impossible to do it.

"My subordinates have checked Qiuyi's life experience. She went to Yihong Courtyard when she was six years old and was raised by the old bustard, and her subordinates didn't think she was a murderer. Black Hawk reasoned further and overturned Qiuyi's killing of Qinghu.

"Slaves and maids see the emperor."

Just as the queen was silently thinking, there was a matter of the maid saluting outside. The Black Eagle hurriedly raised his head, glanced at the Queen, and then turned and hid behind the screen.

The queen exhaled to look calm.

"What's wrong?" The emperor strode forward and sat beside the queen. "I heard that you've been in a bad mood lately, but you're tired from running the winter solstice feast?"

The emperor spoke softly and approachable, and most of the queen's anger suddenly dissipated. If he treats himself like this every day, how good it would be, the queen thought helplessly.

"What's the matter, the emperor is really hard to deal with the busy government affairs. Managing the harem is a matter within the concubines' duties, where can we talk about fatigue. The emperor begged for this, but he did not treat his concubines as his own. The queen's expression was kind and gentle, and she vaguely showed her coquettish side in front of the emperor.

The emperor nodded with satisfaction. "I'm here to see you today, and if there's anything I say, I'll tell Gonggong Li that the banquet doesn't need to be grand, just have a heart." After that, the emperor gently took the queen's hand.

The queen was shocked, and she was a little surprised how the emperor could be so gentle with her today.

"A lot of things have happened recently, and I am very depressed. Suddenly I remembered the past, I have been married to you for 20 years. The corners of the emperor's mouth rose slightly, and he looked at the queen with a look of relief.

The queen's heart was warm, and she was lost by what the emperor said in a few words. If she didn't really like the emperor, how could she be thinking about Concubine Shu's affairs until now.

"I know that you don't agree with Concubine Shu, I'm afraid that the relationship between me and Concubine Shu in the past is also angry with you now."

Hearing the emperor talk about Concubine Shugui, the queen showed displeasure. Could it be that the emperor is rarely so close to her, and he actually goes around and around for the sake of Concubine Shugui?

"Don't think too much about it, the emperor is like that, and when she dies, there are no bones left, and the concubines just feel embarrassed." The queen bowed her head slightly and responded politely.

She couldn't see the deep meaning in the emperor's eyes, and when she looked up, she had already disappeared. Only those pupils, silent like a pool of death, the queen can't see clearly, and she can't understand it.

Concubine Shu is mixed like that, no one else can be blamed, and if you want to blame, you can only blame the emperor for being ruthless. The queen thought to herself. Between the lines, she just wanted the emperor to recall.

What made the queen unwilling was that she never imagined that even if Concubine Shugui died, she would be entangled around her until now, so that she would not be at peace.

"Concubine Shu deserves it, I don't want you to disturb your mood for this kind of person." The emperor smiled lightly at the queen, and then grasped her hand more firmly. "You are the one who has been dependent on me until now, and I can sort out political affairs, so I naturally understand."

The queen's eyes moved slightly, but she still didn't understand, the emperor suddenly came to Jinhua Palace, and was kind to her in every way, what was the purpose.

"I'm a little tired."

White smoke rose from the incense burner on the table, and the scent of sandalwood filled the palace. The emperor was like a child, leaning on the queen's shoulder, and fell into a deep sleep.

The queen was uneasy at first, but the breathing on her side became calmer, and the queen's mood was also stable.

"Yaoyao!"
