My old husband who can read minds

Chapter 163

After watching Princess Hetai get on the sedan chair, Aunt Gui returned to the inner hall and stayed by the bedside.

"He Tai is gone?" The Queen Mother, who had been sleeping, closed her eyes and suddenly asked.

"Let's go, master, are you awake or not asleep?"

Aunt Gui carefully helped the Queen Mother up, and at the same time, she truthfully recounted what she had just told Princess Tai.

"This child has always been a considerate person." After hearing this, the Queen Mother smiled and said, "As people get older, they become more soft-hearted. They like to care about their own family and everything, but the result is that the sensible party is wronged, and the ignorant party is pushed to the limit. .”

"Aunt Gui, regarding Qionghua, do you think the Ai family did something wrong?"

The Queen Mother asked with blank eyes as she leaned on the pillow.

"There is a slang among the people that melons that are forced are not sweet. The old slave thinks that since the Qin family does not want to have this marriage, it is better not to force it, lest the two families fail to get married and become enemies. Then you will be the real one in the middle. It’s embarrassing. I think you have been kind enough to Prince Min’s family and let them go the rest of the way."

People's hearts are made of flesh. Comparing the difference in how Princess Minjun and Princess Hetai treat the Queen Mother, Aunt Gui will naturally turn to the Qin family.

The Queen Mother smiled knowingly, "The Ai family knows that you will definitely turn to Hetai."

Aunt Gui answered frankly: "Whoever treats the master well will be treated well by me."

The Queen Mother smiled, her eyes far away, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

After a long while, he slowly spoke, "In two days, you can find time to go to His Majesty's house and tell him that the marriage between Qionghua and Zhongning can't happen, and ask the emperor to give Qionghua another good one." My dear. She is the only daughter of Prince Min. If Qionghua marries outside, I am afraid that his family will be extinct. If not, please let Your Majesty resume Qionghua’s status as the county head and recruit a son-in-law."

Aunt Gui nodded in agreement, "My master is kind-hearted and thoughtful. Prince Min and his family should be grateful to you. If you still dare to be dissatisfied, you are worse than a pig or a dog."

"The Ai family is tired. Mommy will take care of the Ai family and go to bed."

The Queen Mother raised her hands tiredly and quickly fell asleep under Aunt Gui's gentle massage.Qin He went to the palace before dawn to work as an errand. He didn't know that his mother had gone to Yongshou Palace on the way. Therefore, when the emperor summoned him and asked him if he was willing to marry Wei Qionghua as an equal wife, he did not hesitate to say He made it clear that even if he was struck by lightning, he would never have anything to do with that vicious woman.

Emperor Qianyuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "I'm just asking why Zhong Ning reacted so strongly. Are you still afraid of Qiong Hua, a weak woman?"

Qin He solemnly said: "Your Majesty, have you ever seen a weak woman who kills people like hemp? Wei Chen is not afraid of Wei Qionghua, but Wei Chen is afraid for the female family members at home. Prince Min Jun originally had a group of wives and concubines, but now you look at it He only has one wife and one concubine left by his side; the other three rooms in Prince Yu's mansion are all filled with children and grandchildren, so why has Prince Min only had one daughter, Wei Qionghua, in the past 20 years? There are many things that are horrifying to think about, but the world doesn't say, not because I don’t know, but I don’t dare.”

Emperor Qianyuan was rarely silent. Thinking of what the "Mingzhu Princess" had done in the past, he was not surprised by Qin He's rejection.

"Your Majesty, I have one more important thing to report regarding Wei Qionghua."

"What's wrong with her?" Emperor Qianyuan looked impatient and had a headache. This cousin's niece's ability to get into trouble was truly unparalleled.

Just after he returned to Beijing, such a big mess happened, leaving him in a dilemma.

"Two months ago, the second uncle's concubine, Mrs. Dong, hanged herself. Before she died, she told Wei Chen that the master of the 'Zhujin Tower' wanted to kill Ms. Shen just to seek the position of the crown prince's wife. Shortly afterwards, Wei Wei When Qionghua returned to the capital, she clearly didn't like Wei Chen and knew that Wei Chen hated him deeply, but she still acted like she was infatuated with him. This was very abnormal. Wei Chen didn't respond, and then rumors started flying everywhere..."

Qin He held the handle of the knife and said in a deep voice: "Wei Qionghua has been scheming and good at deceiving others since she was a child. Wei Chen suspected that she might have come into contact with the 'Zhu Jin Tower' during the Qing Dynasty in Hengyang. She returned this time Beijing may have other plans. Wei Chen has secretly sent people to Hengyang to secretly investigate the whereabouts of Prince Min and his family in the past five years. If there is any news, Wei Chen will report it in time."

Emperor Qianyuan's face was as cold as frost. He never expected that the important matter Qin He said would be such an important secret report.

"You did a good job on this matter, but the number of people sent was too few. I will ask the secret guards to assist later."

"Zhu Jinlou" was a rebel organization in Emperor Qianyuan's heart, and he wanted to kill him quickly. As the royal eldest daughter, Wei Qionghua, if she really colluded with the rebels, it would be like stabbing the emperor in the heart. knife.

Under such circumstances, Emperor Qianyuan would never allow her to have a close relationship with the Qin family, even if there was even the slightest suspicion. Naturally, the position of equal wife he planned would not succeed.
