Chapter 308: Checks and Balances
Then she must have a lot of evidence in her hands, and no matter how much she struggles, it is in vain, it is better not to spend this effort.
Lin Xiang did this, and a trace of appreciation flashed in Chang Youxi's eyes, if it weren't for the difference in the team, this person would have been able to become a good subordinate, but it's a pity.
"Lin Xiang understands the righteousness, and this official admires it." For a person worthy of respect, Chang Youxi never stingy with his respect, "Someone will drag this person down, behead the public, the concubine will mess with the palace and fornicate with others, this suicide, the Li family's goddaughter is not strict, the whole family is demoted to a concubine, and he will never be allowed to enter the court as an official." ”
"Yes, Lord Chang."
Su Qi didn't know when she appeared in the court, Chang Youxi's words just fell, and no one jumped out to oppose it, Su Qi had already been ordered to leave, and it was in vain for them to say anything.
"Okay, the official's matter has been settled, if there is anything to do, let's go to the fold."
Waving his hand, he often got up and went back to the palace.
As she got up, the eunuch's shrill voice rang out.
"Retreat."
As soon as she returned to Chunxi Courtyard, Chang Youxi hurriedly asked Qiushui, Qiuxin and Cai'er to take off her court clothes together.
"This dynasty is really not a human officer, and he is tired to death."
When you are a five-grade female official, the formal dress is already very thunderous, who knows that it is even worse to be a third-grade female official.
Looking at Chang Youxi's appearance, where is the majesty of the court just now?
Qiushui and Qiuxin glanced at each other, and they both saw a funny look in each other's eyes, regardless of whether Chang Youxi is a high-ranking person now, she still has the same childish temper in her heart as she did at the beginning.
"The master also complained, this is something that no matter how many people ask for it, they can't ask for it."
pursed his lips disdainfully, and Chang Youxi said: "Whoever has the ability to take my position can take it, who will stop it?" ”
Qiu Xin thought thoughtfully, "Also, if you really have the ability, it will be in vain for others to say and do anything." ”
This made Chang Youxi glance at Qiu Xin, this girl was smarter than she thought, fortunately she was under her own hands, otherwise......
"Go and prepare, I disposed of the concubine, and I will go to ask the emperor for guilt tonight."
Squinting, there is often a casual command, looking at him like that, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like panic.
"Master, the emperor won't blame you for this incident, why ......?"
"Yes." Qiu Xin bowed without objection, and by the way, he also pulled Qiu Shui, who was about to say something.
Glancing at Qiushui, there are often happy eyes that others can't understand.
"Whether the emperor will blame it is the emperor's business, whether I go to ask for guilt or not, it's my business, understand?"
Qiushui is good at everything, but it is a lot of words, commonly known as it, more than loyal, but not enough stability, but this also has her benefits, and Chang Youxi didn't say much.
"Yes, master, the slave and maid understand."
pinched Qiushui's face, "Good, I have a pink begonia hairpin in that box, it's just right for you to wear, take it." ”
Such a soft and cute girl, staying in this cannibalistic place in the palace, is really pitiful.
Qiushui, who was originally a little sluggish, immediately laughed when he heard this, "Obey!" Thank you, Master! ”
Shaking his head funny, Chang Youxi smiled at Qiu Xin: "What a child's temper." ”
Qiu Xin also smiled: "It is precisely because of this that my parents didn't worry about her entering the palace alone and let me follow." ”
Listening to Qiu Xin's meaning, it seems that there was a chance not to enter the palace back then?
When I had doubts in my heart, I often asked about it.
"Yes, slaves don't need to enter the palace." Qiu Xin's face was a little bitter, "Back then, the family was in difficulty, if Qiushui was the only one who entered the palace, the brothers in the family would not be able to marry their daughters-in-law, and the family could not be without a queen, so my parents sent me in." ”
I didn't expect there to be such a play, and I often sighed, "Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, don't you complain?" ”
If she likes herself, she thinks she will complain, in the past, the emperor forcibly let her enter the palace and become a show girl, doesn't she also complain that the emperor dragged her into this golden wire cage, otherwise, she would not have a good face for the emperor.
Qiu Xin's face was slightly bitter, but he didn't complain.
"Father and mother gave the slave maid their lives and gave them a bite to eat, the slave and the maid did not complain, although it was dangerous and difficult to enter the palace, but there was still a mouthful of food to eat, if they did not enter the palace, the brothers in the family would be extinct, maybe they would starve to death, and the slave and maid did not complain."
This kind of answer made Chang Youxi stunned, originally she thought that Qiu Xin would say something that obeying her parents meant that it should be, it seemed that Qiu Xin was smarter than she thought.
"You're a good girl, just say whatever you need."
In exchange for the loyalty of Qiu Xin with a little benefit, Chang Youxi feels that it is worth it.
"The master treats the slave and maid as kind as a mountain, and the slave and maid will have nothing to ask for, only to let the autumn water out of the palace if there is a chance in the future, so that she can have a good home."
It is said that the eldest sister is like a mother, and it seems that the real mother is nothing more than that.
Although this is not a big deal for Chang Youxi, Chang Youxi still reminded: "Getting married out of the palace is not necessarily a good destination, who knows if the person who marries is a good person?" The official only promised you that if you let Qiushui leave the palace in the future, her husband will treat her badly, and she is willing, and the official can forcibly let her go. ”
This is Chang Youxi's greatest favor to the girl, and it is also the greatest reward that the master can do to the slave.
Qiu Xin hurriedly knelt down, "Thank you, master." ”
At this time, Qiushui came back, and happened to hear Qiuxin thanking him, "Sister, the master has rewarded you with something good, can you show me?" ”
Seeing this, Chang Youxi couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle, "I rewarded your sister with a snack from the imperial dining room, isn't it all for you?" ”
As soon as the words fell, Chang Youxi clearly heard the sound of Qiushui swallowing saliva.
"Sister, will you give me a taste? Just one bite! ”
Chang Youxi couldn't help but laugh for a while, and glanced at Qiu Xin, both of whom saw a smile in the other party's eyes.
"Go get it yourself, I don't know what is delicious about the sweet and greasy snacks, take them all."
With a wave of his hand, he sent Qiushui away.
She doesn't like to eat dim sum herself, and in addition to entertaining guests, most of the dim sum in the room comes into the mouth of Qiushui, but she herself still thinks that Chang Youxi doesn't know, such a living treasure is really funny.
"It's almost time, are you ready?"
Qiu Xin retracted the smile at the corner of her mouth when she heard this, and nodded to Chang Youxi, "Back to the master, everything is ready, but, do you really want to go now?" Don't finish dinner? "I don't know how long it will take to spend in the imperial study, Qiu Xin feels that Chang Youxi's stomach is much more important than what to ask for sin.
"No, you don't." It is good to go on an empty stomach.
Seeing this, Qiu Xin was still a little dissatisfied, but he didn't say anything in the end, nodded and let people take things.
When Su Qi came out to breathe, what she saw was Chang Youxi kneeling at the door of the imperial study with thorns on his back.
Shocked, he hurriedly stepped forward to help, "What are you doing?" Hurry up. ”
Stroking Su Qi's hand away, "I disposed of the concubine Niangniang without authorization, and I should be guilty of Jing Niang, don't tell the emperor." She glanced at Sukie.
"Okay."
Seeing this, Su Qi didn't get entangled, nodded to Chang Youxi, and turned around and entered the door.
"Who's out there?" The government affairs have been dealt with by Chang Youxi, and the emperor is very idle to read books that he didn't have time to read before.
"This ......"
Su Qi looked a little embarrassed, and looked like she wanted to say something.
"I told you to say it, and you still didn't say it?" The emperor's expression was a little unhappy.
As if she was intimidated by the emperor, Su Qi immediately spoke, "Back to the emperor, it's Lord Chang outside, she said that she disposed of the concubine Niangniang without authorization, and came to the imperial study to ask for guilt." ”
"Does she still know about pleading?" The emperor asked rather amusefully, but he also knew that Su Qi couldn't ask anything here, "Let her in." ”
"Yes."
Soon Chang Youxi pushed the door in, and there was a rare panic in his expression.
"Tell me, what are you here for?"
If you want to say that she came to ask for sin, the emperor didn't believe half of it, and she didn't do less of such things before, when did she still ask for sin.
"The minister did come to ask for guilt, disposed of the concubine Niangniang, and also disposed of Lin Xiang's younger brother, causing trouble to the emperor."
Hearing this, the emperor was stunned, and then laughed and scolded.
"You girl, you want me to wipe your ass with the black pot on your back, I said why did you suddenly come to ask for guilt and be so serious."
There is no reproach.
Chang Youxi was not moved by the emperor's laughter and scolding, "The minister doesn't dare." ”
Whether they dare or not, only they know.
Brushing the book in his hand, "Okay, I know what you mean, you can go, don't be an eyesore here." ”
"Yes, I obey."
arched his hand to the emperor, and Chang Youxi withdrew expressionlessly.
As soon as he went out, Chang Youxi showed a relaxed smile and threw out the burden on his body, no matter how he said it, this is something to be happy about.
"You have pitted the emperor again?"
Seeing Chang Youxi like this, Su Qi couldn't help but ask with a smile.
glanced at him obliquely, and often pouted with joy, "How dare I pit the emperor." ”
After saying that, no matter what Su Qi's reaction was, she left leisurely by herself.
As for the rest, what does it have to do with her, what do you do with all this?
"Master, are you back? Master Li has just been here. ”
After a while, Chang Youxi reacted, who was Lord Li that Qiu Xin was talking about, "What did he say?" ”
"You're not here, Master Li didn't say anything, just left this and left."
Stretched out his hand to take over the gadget in Qiu Xin's hand, Chang Youxi took a look, it turned out to be Dongzhu, the size of a pigeon's egg, "In order to save the Li family, he also made a bloody investment." ”
Qiushui was a little puzzled, "You just ordered the Li family to be demoted to a concubine, and you didn't give death, and his family is not short of money, why do you do this?" ”
What a simple girl, Chang Youxi chuckled and shook her head.
Even Qiu Xin looked like he was eager to knock on Qiu Shui's head to see if it was water inside.
