Chapter 235: Never After
"You know?"
"Zhiyao, as a mother who was pregnant for ten months, how could she not know that her child was abnormal, but because of the emperor, I didn't dare to say more, I had already put up with her for a long time, and now there is no need."
"Grandma Huang, since you already know, you should tell Grandpa Huang, why don't you dare to say more? That's your own flesh and blood with Grandpa Huang!"
"Hey......" The queen lowered her head and sighed, "I don't want to embarrass the emperor, at that time, your imperial grandfather had just ascended the throne, and the Qi family intended to let his concubine marry in as a concubine, just to give birth to a boy and half a girl, so that the throne is stable, and they can better consolidate their own position, the meaning of the Qi family, the emperor also understands, the Qi family wants to use this concubine to make their power in the court bigger."
"Grandpa Huang knew that Concubine Qi had the intention to murder his biological son, but because he was afraid of the Qi family's power, he couldn't do it?" Sheng Zhiyao asked.
"Hey...... That's not it, it's my fault, I just found the abnormality at the time, but I was too sad to take care of it, and then when I felt that it was wrong, it was too late, so I kept it in my heart and didn't tell you about it." A hint of gloom flashed in the queen's lowered eyes, "If the emperor knows about this, he will definitely be furious, even if the Qi family is powerful in the court, I am afraid it will not be spared, your imperial grandfather loves your imperial uncle the most."
"It turns out that the imperial grandmother is thinking about the imperial grandfather, Zhi Yao understands, it's just that the imperial grandmother, Qi Guifei's conspiracy has succeeded, and you can't just give up, otherwise, Zhiyao will teach Qi Guifei a lesson for the imperial grandmother, right?"
"Zhiyao, I can't help it, now it's up to the emperor to do it." The queen persuaded.
"But Concubine Qi is so arrogant and domineering, if I don't clean her up, it's really hard to swallow the breath in my heart!" Sheng Zhiyao said angrily.
"Zhiyao!" The queen took Sheng Zhiyao's hand, "Grandma Huang believes that the emperor is a decisive person, and he will definitely make a decision in this matter, don't worry about it now, when the time is ripe, Grandma Huang and Grandpa Huang will definitely clean her up!"
"Okay." Sheng Zhiyao nodded heavily in agreement.
The queen smiled and rubbed Sheng Zhiyao's head: "Silly boy, I have wronged you."
Sheng Zhiyao shook his head: "Imperial Grandma, Zhiyao is not aggrieved, as long as she is by the imperial grandmother's side, as long as she is very happy."
The queen nodded, but it was not a taste in her heart.
Sheng Zhiyao stood up, walked to Qinglian and squatted down, staring at Qinglian: "Qi Guifei's matter, the county lord will report to the emperor, you had better not have any luck, otherwise the consequences are not affordable to you, now immediately write everything you know and sign it."
"Yes." Qinglian was startled and nodded hurriedly.
Sheng Zhiyao instructed Zhu'er to bring a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone and put it in front of Qinglian: "Write in detail, otherwise I can't guarantee that I can save your life."
"Yes, yes, the slave will write carefully, please wait a moment, the county lord." Qinglian wiped the sweat from her face and began to write seriously.
After half a pillar of incense, Qinglian wrote four pages, raised her head and said, "County Lord, it's done."
Sheng Zhiyao took the four pages, opened them and looked at them, "Well, it's quite detailed, you can leave now."
"Yes." Qinglian was pardoned and fled quickly.
After she left, the queen asked Sheng Zhiyao, "Zhiyao, what are you going to do?"
Sheng Zhiyao sneered: "I will let the emperor find out what Qi Guifei has done these days, and then publicize it at the city gate, and then there are Qi Xiang and the second prince, I don't believe they didn't participate."
"Qi Xiang, Second Prince?"
Sheng Zhiyao nodded: "Yes, since you want to investigate, you must never suffer in the future."
The queen nodded: "Then you should pay more attention to yourself, if there is anything, remember to tell the imperial grandmother."
"Hmm."
"Also, Grandma Huang will try to help you, don't blame Grandma Huang for being nosy, Grandma Huang is just worried about your safety, after all, Qi Xiang's power is too strong, I'm worried about your safety."
"Grandma Huang, me
Know your good intentions, and be of good cheer." Sheng Zhiyao held the queen's hands, "I will take good care of myself, don't worry, let me go first with this evidence of the imperial grandmother, I will go back to the Hou Mansion first, and if I don't go back, it is estimated that my mother, father and brothers will be worried about death."
"Go quickly, be careful on the road, Zhu'er is optimistic about your county lord."
"Yes, Queen."
Sheng Zhiyao nodded with a smile and turned to leave.
Back at the Hou Mansion, it was already dark.
Sheng Zhiyao just entered the mansion and saw everyone sitting at the table waiting for her, she felt a little guilty in her heart, she stepped forward and saluted, "Father, mother, I'm sorry, I'm late."
Sheng Zhengye saw that Sheng Zhiyao's face was tired, and hurriedly helped her up: "It's good to come back, let's eat first."
Qi Xinyue also looked at Sheng Zhiyao with concern: "Hungry, right?"
"Hmm." Sheng Zhiyao nodded, "I haven't eaten for a day, I'm really a little hungry."
Sheng Zhengye brought the dishes up, and put a large bowl of rice in front of Sheng Zhiyao, "Eat."
"Thank you, father." Sheng Zhiyao said gratefully, and then put a piece of braised pork in his mouth.
"Zhiyao, is today's dish to your liking?" When Sheng Zhiyao was eating, Sheng Hanmo suddenly asked her.
Sheng Zhiyao nodded: "It's delicious."
"It's delicious, then eat more." Sheng Hanmo also sandwiched a piece of meat and put it in Sheng Zhiyao's bowl.
Sheng Zhiyao was stunned, glanced at Sheng Hanmo, and then looked at the meat in his bowl, frowning unconsciously.
Sheng Hanmo looked at her frowning and asked puzzledly, "What's wrong?" Don't like it?"
"Oh, no." Sheng Zhiyao smiled, continued to eat meat, ate and drank to his heart's content, Sheng Zhiyao reached out and touched his round belly, and patted it with satisfaction.
At this time, Sheng Zhengye ordered his subordinates to take away all the dishes and chopsticks, then looked at Sheng Zhiyao and asked, "Zhiyao, where did you go last night?"
"Father, I was locked in the ice cellar of Biluo Hall by Concubine Qi last night." Sheng Zhiyao told the ins and outs of the whole thing.
After listening, Sheng Hangu slapped the table violently: "That old witch is really vicious! I didn't even let go of such a small doll, but I just went to prison, and I cheapened her!"
"Sheng Hangu, shut up for me!" Sheng Zhengye glared at Sheng Hangu and scolded.
Sheng Hangu pursed his lips disdainfully and said no more.
"Zhiyao, are you hurt?" Sheng Zhengye asked with concern.
"It's alright, father, I'm fine." Sheng Zhiyao shook his head, "It's you, are you okay at home?"
"We're fine, don't worry." Sheng Zhiyao's mother, Qi Xinyue, hurriedly said, "We have been looking forward to your return as soon as possible, but I didn't expect it to take so long to see your shadow."
