His Majesty asked angrily: "Prince, do you have anything to explain?!"
The prince hesitated and did not dare to speak.
Suddenly, a phoenix shadow rushed into the hall like wind. Under the horrified eyes of everyone, it slapped the prince on the head and almost made him fall off.
In an instant, all the officials in the court knelt down and shouted in unison: "A Thousand Years Old Queen!"
His Majesty, who was sitting on the dragon chair, silently moved his dragon hips to the side to make a seat for the Queen.
According to the memory of Mr. Jingzhao Yinlu, who was in the hall at the time, the atmosphere in the hall was frozen for at least half a quarter of an hour.
It wasn't until the Queen sat down and asked everyone to get down without ceremony that new fresh air flowed into the hall, and all the officials felt that they were alive again.
At this point, Liu Ji noticed that the breathing around him had stopped. When he looked up, he saw that the expressions of the audience were dull and stiff. It was obvious that they had assumed that he was in the hall.
Liu Ji was relieved for three seconds, then waved his hand and said in a relaxed tone: "Don't take on the role, and don't be nervous. We are at home, not in the hall."
The four Dalang brothers and sister, who were almost out of breath, quickly took a deep breath.
Yin Le urged excitedly: "Master, please continue talking, what happened next? What happened next? The prince was slapped by the queen, what happened after that? How did the prince become? What happened to Prince Feng?"
A Wang's expressionless face showed a rare hint of nervousness.
Qin Yao noticed Awang's slight expression and felt relieved.
No one in this family is more concerned about the situation of King Feng and the Queen than he is.
He signaled everyone to stay calm and eat a few more bites of food. Liu Ji then continued:
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was suspended for half a year, and the Imperial Master was fined for one year. His Majesty also sent a special person to investigate the matter of King Feng's low-priced purchase of the land and houses of his subordinates."
“It's gone?” Yin Le asked.
Liu Ji spread his hands and said, "It's gone."
Everyone at the dinner table looked at each other in confusion. There was such a big commotion. Did the prince just stay in the house for half a year?
Why does it feel like you pick it up high and put it down gently?
Seeing what everyone was thinking, Qin Yao explained: "The prince is the crown prince after all. Before the matter of Prince Feng is verified, His Majesty's grounding him for half a year is already a very severe punishment."
The specific situation in the court must be different from what Liu Ji described, just listen and enjoy it.
“The prince was punished not because he protected King Feng, but because he allowed the matter to break out.”
Qin Yao analyzed from another position: "As a prince, you can't handle this kind of thing. I think the emperor and the queen should be very disappointed in the prince. The disappointment of these two people is a hundred times more terrifying to the prince than being grounded. "
Hearing this, Liu Ji looked up in surprise, "Then according to what you said, Madam, the prince will be in quite a bad situation this time?"
Qin Yao nodded, not only was it miserable, but it was also very dangerous.
But the Imperial Guard did not seem to be greatly affected by this incident. He was only fined one year's salary, which is really a gentle relief.
I don't know if the emperor intends to provide support for the prince, or what. For the time being, it seems that it will not be easy for Prince Feng to be confirmed.
"Do you know who was sent to check King Feng?" Qin Yao asked Liu Ji.
Liu Ji shook his head, "I don't know exactly who it is, but I heard that they are planning to send a member of the royal family."
Awang suddenly snorted, "Let the clan members go check on King Feng. It would be strange if a relative with the same surname can find something."
“Where is Wu Sheng?” Let's pay attention to the person who needs the most attention. Awang thought in his heart.
Liu Ji also inquired about this, and his brother-in-law said: "She is doing well. People from the eldest princess's guards are specially guarding the prison. They have also arranged a single cell and provided good food and drink."
Children don't understand the people fighting above, and they don't pay attention when the distance is too far. The adults are very sensible in chatting and just listen without making any comments.
At this moment, hearing that Wu Sheng was well, they all laughed in relief. "That's good, that's good." Yin Le patted his chest. It seemed that everyone's efforts were not in vain.
After dinner, it was already getting late.
After clearing away the dishes, the family of eight washed up and went to bed.
Early the next morning, Qin Yao woke up early for the first time, dressed up specially, and asked Awang to harness the carriage.
After the family had breakfast together, Yin Le stayed at home.
Liu Ji continued to take the three boys in his family to study at Fan's private school and officially enrolled in school.
Qin Yao took Siniang with her and took a car with Awang to the Women's Academy.
In fact, it is only a few steps to walk there, but the weather is really hot, so it is more comfortable to take a carriage.
Coupled with the custom in Kyoto of "respecting clothes first and then people", it would be easier to get things done by riding a carriage than by walking.
Si Niang was very quiet along the way. She took her bookcase with her and kept reading to consolidate her homework.
She was afraid that when the time came that the master would pay attention to her studies, she would not be able to enter the school if she did not perform well.
Yesterday when the eldest brother and the others came back, they said that the master and the master of the Fan family had specially tested their academic performance and thought that their homework was pretty good, so they agreed to accept them.
So it was absolutely right to be more prepared, because she didn't want her mother to be embarrassed because she couldn't answer her husband's test.
Qin Yao looked at her daughter who was studying hard and felt very proud. I am such a good girl.
The distance was really close, and Awang drove the car slowly, and it only took more than a quarter of an hour to arrive at the Women's Academy.
The academy has started teaching. The gate of the academy is ajar, and it is quiet in front of the door.
As soon as Qin Yao's carriage appeared, it attracted the attention of the gatekeeper of the female academy.
She thought it was a late student, so she walked out of the door to take a look, only to realize that it was not the case.
But the mother and daughter got off the carriage and looked at her hesitantly. They immediately understood that the visitor should be asking about admission matters.
She walked over with a warm smile and asked, "What are you doing here?"
Qin Yao nodded lightly and replied with a smile: "My surname is Qin, and this is my daughter Liu Pingling. My family lives in Kuanzhengfang across the street. I heard that there is a girls' academy here, so I brought her here to ask what the enrollment is. Charter.”
The gatekeepers were not surprised at all. After all, the only people who came to them were for their daughters' schooling.
She smiled understandingly and said, "My name is Caiwei, and I am the gatekeeper of the Women's Garden. Come in with me, and I will take you to see the dean."
"The carriage is parked outside." Caiwei said specifically.
Qin Yao understood and signaled Awang to wait outside the door, and the mother and daughter went in with her.
“A'niang.” Si Niang couldn't control herself and called Qin Yao happily.
She had already begun to like it before she even entered.
The eldest sister here is very nice, she talks softly and likes to laugh. She took them to see the dean as soon as they arrived, and there was no embarrassment at all.
Qin Yao lowered her head and smiled at her daughter. She did not expect that things would go so smoothly.
Caiwei, who was leading the way, looked to be about the same age as Yin Le. She was in her early twenties. She was wearing a light white narrow-sleeved skirt. Her long hair was pulled back into a long braid and tied with a hair tie of the same color, neatly. And clean.
She has fair skin, a round face, and a very friendly smile. It's no wonder that children like her. (End of chapter)
