Mr. Xia felt so aggrieved that he could only ask Yuan Qinghan.

Yuan Qinghan's face turned pale.

Could she say that she had been in the room before the two ladies arrived?

Can she say she has met the princess?

While she was in the inner room, she naturally heard them talking outside.

I'm not a real man, so I don't have such a strong desire to avoid suspicion, and the princess said she would be back soon.

Who would have thought that all this was a trap she set for herself.

If she told the truth, would the eldest princess become angry and reveal her identity directly?

Women in southern countries could not serve as officials, let alone take part in the imperial examinations by disguising themselves as men.

This crime of deceiving the emperor is enough to be beheaded.

Yuan Qinghan subconsciously looked at Mu Mingque.

At this moment, she couldn't decide whether to tell the truth or hide it for Mu Fuhua.

I am admired but there is no brother-sister relationship in my heart.

If Qinghan didn't still have the leverage in her hands, he really wanted to execute this sister immediately.

He shook his head at Yuan Qinghan and signaled him not to tell anyone.

If it was in the past, this sister was still afraid of herself, maybe she could be rectified, but today it seems...

It’s different.

He didn't dare to gamble with Qinghan's life.

He could only feel wronged to her first, and after today's incident was over, he swore that he would never care about the relationship between brother and sister again.

Received the meaning of Mu Mingque.

Yuan Qinghan's eyelashes trembled and he lowered his eyes.

I felt sad in my heart.

Sure enough, although the emperor seems to value himself very much, in the end he is still not as good as the eldest princess.

There is a limit to how well he treats himself.

Yuan Qinghan spoke in a hoarse voice.

"No, I have never seen the princess. I..." Yuan Qinghan choked, swallowed the bitterness in his mouth, and continued. "Actually, I don't know why I appear here."

It's really funny, I was framed by her like this, but I still helped her hide it.

Chu Yun sighed slightly when he saw Yuan Qinghan's expression as if he was extremely aggrieved.

Although she was wrong to lie.

I'd better not expose her.

I want to be a good person.

Pink Duck:......

"Brother Yuan!" a young official exclaimed in surprise, "You are still protecting the princess, she has done so much harm to you."

Chu Yun laughed, "Protect?

Mr. Xia, it seems that your prejudice against me is not as deep as usual."

"I'm just sticking to my own judgment." Mr. Xia kept his kneeling posture, but when he said this, his chin was slightly raised.

He looks like he is not afraid of the powerful.

Chu Yun sneered again and turned to complain to Mu Mingquan, "Brother, look, Mr. Xia is so brave, he dares to slander me indiscriminately.

So many people heard it, and the prince-in-law even admitted that he had never seen me, yet he still insisted on slandering me.

Brother Huang, tell me what to do."

Admire but:......

Do it with a hammer.

The person I want to deal with is you.

Chu Yun pretended not to see Mu Mingque's dark face.

"I remember that the emperor told me not long ago that the people of the world and the country of the South should be the top priority in everything."

"What is the difference between someone like Mr. Xia who bites randomly for his own selfishness and a rogue in the market? If such a person stays in the court, isn't it a disaster for the country? A disaster for the people?"

What Chu Yun said was awe-inspiring.

The bearded minister of the Ministry of Justice nodded and walked out, "Your Majesty, if you slander others with empty words, you will be punished with a cane for thirty years and will be sentenced to ten years in prison. Those who slander the royal family will be punished by one level."

He glanced at Mr. Xia with admiration but anger.

Although I understand that he has good intentions, but... he is too brainless.

What's even more frustrating is that as the king of a country, I can't protect him.

When Mr. Xia calmed down and something happened, the person had already been dragged to the board.

After dealing with Mr. Xia, the group of young people kneeling on the ground finally became a little timid.

A group of people struggled for a long time, but could not find out who framed the consort and the two ladies.

Unable to find the culprit, the three of them had no choice but to admit they were unlucky.

Admire the fame but can't bear to really punish Yuan Qinghan.

I want to peel it off gently.

"Since we can't find the person behind the scenes, it seems to be an accident. In this case, it's a family matter.

The Huang family and the Chen family will be dealt with by the two families themselves, and the prince-in-law... will be handled by me on behalf of the emperor's sister, so... Yuan Aiqing will be punished in isolation for three... one month."

Everyone:???

Is this punishment too light?

Chu Yun said directly, "Brother Emperor, this is inappropriate."

"Even if it was an accident, the prince-in-law is a 'man' after all. He ruined the reputation of the two ladies like this without showing any signs of it. What kind of man can he be?"

Prince Consort, it’s impossible for you not to have even a little bit of responsibility as a man, right?”

Mu Mingke and Yuan Qinghan both turned pale.

The word 'manly' is so destructive to them...

Chu Yun came up with another set of reasons for family and country affairs.

"Ordinary men, if they accidentally offend a woman who has not yet left the court, will marry her if she is responsible.

The two ladies already have husbands, so there is no need for a consort to carry them home in a sedan chair.

But the prince-in-law is not even willing to express an apology?"

"If you act like this, how will the people in the world see you, how they will see the emperor, and how they will see our Mu family royal family."

Admired but angry, veins popped out on his forehead, and his whole face looked ferocious.

Mu Mingjin couldn't bear it anymore.

Gritting his teeth, he said, "Sister Huang, do you have to push someone to death? He is your consort."

Even if there is no real love between husband and wife, they have been together for such a long time.

Qinghan has always tolerated her without limit, even if he has a cat or a dog, he still has feelings for her.

This royal sister of mine is indeed cruel and ruthless.

I didn't feel this way when I was dealing with political opponents before, but now I feel it all at once.

At her core, she is a person who has no emotions and is ungrateful.

"Brother Four Emperors, what you said is wrong. Whether it was initiative or accident, the prince-in-law has offended others.

I advised her to be responsible like a man, so why did she push her to death?"

"Brother Four Emperors, you shouldn't be like Mr. Xia, who doesn't know right from wrong, right?"

Mu Mingjin:......

"Fourth Prince, please stop begging for me."

Yuan Qinghan's body was no longer as uncomfortable as before, but his face still had a slight blush.

Walking up to Mu Mingque, he lifted up his robe and knelt down.

"With your permission from the Emperor, I would like to kneel in front of the Chengde Hall for three hours every day from tomorrow to pray for the blessings of the people of the world and the Emperor.

To atone for today’s careless actions.”

After saying that, he raised his head and looked at Chu Yun, "Is Her Royal Highness the Princess satisfied?"

Chu Yun smiled slightly, "It doesn't matter whether I am satisfied or not. You should ask the two ladies, are they satisfied?"

Of course the Chen family and the Huang family did not dare to say they were dissatisfied. The attitude of the emperor and the prince was clear.

and......

Yuan Qinghan still has some brains at the critical moment.

Let’s talk about atonement and compensation.

She wants money but not money, she wants power but not power.

Under the guise of serving the people and the emperor, it was hard for others to say anything.

Chu Yun sighed slightly, "In this case, as the consort's wife, I would also like to express that I am willing to donate all my salary this year, as well as all the income of the Princess Mansion this year, to the locust-stricken area in the north.

Think of it as atonement for the consort."

"Your Royal Highness, the eldest princess, is righteous."

"The eldest princess is worthy of being a role model for women in the world."

Along with the praises of the old ministers, Chu Yun said to the pink duck in the space pulling the hair on its head.

"Look, everyone praises me, but you still say I'm not a good person?"
