The slave family is not a disaster

Chapter 274
"But the concubine is so kind to you, can you bear it?" Qin Fengliu disagreed with Qingling's actions, and was even a little angry. After all, Ye Anran was really kind to their brothers and sisters.

"No matter how good it is, as long as I can accomplish my master's great cause, I would be willing to break my body to pieces. Brother, don't interfere with this matter, okay? I have my own measure." It can be seen that Qing Ling has made up her mind To use Ye Anran.

Somewhere Inn in Bianjing
"Leader, the lord is here." His subordinates reported that Mr. Xi was sitting on the grand master's chair with a dignified expression.

"Let him in." Xi Guiren's voice was a little hoarse.

"Yes."

Then Xi Gongjue came in in a black brocade robe: "My son, see mother and concubine."

"Jue, what's the matter with you and Qingqing?" It can be seen that Mr. Xigui still cares about Liu Qingqing.

"Mother Concubine, what did Qingqing tell you?" Xi Gongjue asked tentatively.

"Just say something. She didn't say anything. She kept crying when she came back. She didn't see anyone. She was so worried about her second uncle. Her father didn't know. If he knew, he would be so heartbroken." Mrs. Xi sighed. tone way.

"Young is too nonsense, she won't say it, I will." Then Nishimiyajue told what happened in Daying, including dropping Ye Anran's medicine powder and spreading rumors.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Xigui didn't seem to want to blame Liu Qingqing, but asked instead: "You seem to have a deeper and deeper relationship with the girl from the Ye family?"

"Ah, she is Erchen's concubine, so naturally Erchen should treat her better." In front of his mother and concubine, Xi Gongjue did not dare to show it too clearly. He was really afraid that his mother would do something to Ye Anran one day, so he tried his best to pretend not to be. Looks like he cares.

"It's not best to be sincere, Jue. You have to see the future clearly. Now we are all pulling the net to pave the way for you. Of course, Shen Bilan is the best pawn. You should make good use of it. Don't be sincere with women. They are far away." You are more cruel than you, don't let women hurt you, understand?" Mrs. Xi seems to be hostile to beautiful women.

"Understood, Concubine Mu." Xi Gongjue didn't make any excuses, but just nodded in accordance with Concubine Mu's intention.

"As for Qingqing, go and coax her. That girl is an indispensable helper for you in the future, and you...will marry her sooner or later." Seeing that the timing is almost the same, nobleman Xi said slowly.

"What? Married to Qingqing? Are you kidding me? Concubine mother, you should know that I don't like...?" Before Xi Gongjue finished speaking, he was slapped by Xigui and shouted: "Like? You Since the moment I was born in the emperor's family, I have no qualifications to like someone, understand? Jue, please be sober, okay? Don't talk about love or not in front of this palace, everything is meaningless, you All you need is to take back what belongs to you, it will help you gently, I tell you now, I want you to be ready."

"But I...?" Nishinomiya was just about to explain something.

"Don't talk about it, this matter is like this, you go and coax me gently." Xigui commanded sharply.

"Yes, concubine mother." For so many years, although he seemed to be neglected on the surface, he has always been in contact with concubine mother. Mr. Xigong is extremely strict with Jue Xigong, and he said that filial sons are born under the stick, which is true. Xi Gongjue is indeed very filial to his mother and concubine, because he knows how much his mother and concubine have done for the Ouyang family over the years, and for the sake of the family, she gave up her love with her father and everything in the palace.

So he didn't want to have any disputes with Concubine Mu. He disagreed with Concubine Liu's matter, but he couldn't refute Concubine Mu immediately, so he had to wait until later.

So Nishinomiya turned around and left...

"Wait a moment."

"What else is there for mother and concubine?" Xi Gongjue turned his head sadly.

"Don't forget to investigate the mysterious power I told you about before. This matter is no small matter, and when I came in, I found that the Queen Mother and the Emperor's people seemed to be investigating this matter as well." Mrs. Xi said solemnly.

"My son understands." Nodding his head, Xi Gongjue walked out.

"Which room is Qingqing in?" Xi Gongjue asked the servants in the courtyard.

"If you go back to Master, Miss Qingqing is in the first guest room at the east end." The servant replied cautiously.

Facing Liu Qingqing, Xi Gongjue was more helpless, he had seen her troublemaking skills when he was in Daying, it was really top-notch.

But because of the order of the mother and concubine, she couldn't help but come to see her. Who told her that she was from the Liu family, her father was the owner of Yangliu Villa, and her second uncle was the minister of the Ministry of War of Tianmu Kingdom.

What a headache...

He raised his head and knocked on the door lightly: "Gently, are you inside?"

"Not here." Liu Qingqing replied angrily.

Jue Nishinomiya smiled helplessly: "Why are you still talking when you're not here?"

"I'm happy, but you don't care." Liu Qingwei said angrily.

Nishi Gongjue shook his head helplessly, stretched out his hand to open the door and walked in, and saw Liu Qingqing lying on the bed, seemed to be in a very depressed mood.

"Gentle, I'm back." Said Nishinomiya in a low voice.

"Do you still know how to come back? I thought you and that woman went far away? You don't even want your godmother?" Liu Qingqing got up angrily and shouted.

"Okay, don't be angry, I'm not angry with you anymore, what are you still picky about, eat well, be good, I'm leaving." Seeing Liu Qingqing willing to get up, Nishinomiya thought it was nothing serious, so he said a few words Perfunctory, turned and left.

"Come back to me, I won't let you go." Liu Qingqing stopped in front of Xi Gongjue and shouted.

"What are you trying to make trouble about? Gentle, please, don't act like a child? Except those who love you care about you, no one else cares about your emotions. You can't be like a child who doesn't grow up." Xi Gongjue Reluctantly persuaded.

"Brother Jue, I...I won't make trouble in the future, okay, then you...would you like me?" Suddenly, Liu calmed down slightly, looked at Jue Xigong seriously and said.

"Qingqing, I have always liked you, you will always be like my sister in my heart." After stroking Liu Qingqing's head, Jue Nishinomiya turned and left.

"But I... don't want this kind of brother-sister relationship." Liu Weiqing said with her mouth flattened.

Then Xi Gongjue went out of the inn to the teahouse to pick up An Ran, and they went back to the palace together. In the next morning, a decree from the Queen Mother was sent to Rui'an Palace, Xi Gongjue did not dare to neglect to rush into the palace.

Royal Palace
Inside Tianxuan Palace
The empress dowager was sitting upright in a dark blue dress, the emperor was sitting on one side, Shen Bilan was sitting on the other side, Xigong Jin, Xigongmo, and Xigongjue were all present.

The queen mother cleared her throat and said, "Do you know why the Ai family asked you to come here today?"

"My son doesn't know, please tell the Queen Mother clearly." The three princes said in unison.

"Recently... there is a mysterious force in the capital. This force is buying ironware in a big way. It's a big movement, but they can't find the source. What do you three think?" After finishing speaking, the queen mother glanced at the three of them sharply. .

"I have heard about this matter, and I have secretly investigated it, but found nothing." Xi Gongjue said the truth, and he really wanted to know, because the concubine mother was also investigating this matter, but he did not expect to alert the Queen Mother so soon.

"Oh? Jue, since you know, why didn't you report it to the emperor and Ai's family?" The queen mother seemed very dissatisfied.

"Because nothing was found out, so I don't know how to report it. The emperor has been troubled by state affairs recently, and my son doesn't want to cause trouble for the emperor." Jue Xigong said that this reason is also reasonable.

"Well, Mo'er, what do you think?" The Empress Dowager suddenly changed the subject and looked at Xi Gongmo.

"Huh?" Xi Gongmo was taken aback.

"Tell Aijia what you think." The queen mother stared at Xi Gongmo seriously.

"This... I don't know, but I guess it might be a few ministers with ulterior motives. After all, after Concubine Ning's accident, Prime Minister Ning's side was a bit abnormal, and it was too quiet." Xi Gongmo slowly analyzed.

The Queen Mother nodded: "That's right, the possibility of Prime Minister Ning's side is not ruled out."

Finally, the queen mother looked at Xi Gongjin: "Jin'er, is it your turn?"

"Ah, me, I don't know, I don't know anything." Indeed, Xi Gongjin only cared about picking up girls and drinking, so how could he know this, so after saying it, the queen mother seemed very dissatisfied.

"You don't know about important national affairs, what else do you know?" The Queen Mother asked scoldingly.

"Queen, I really don't know. You can ask the emperor and the second brother about this kind of thing. The third brother is fine. I'll let it go, ha." Xi Gongjin scratched his head and smiled.

"Okay, queen mother, don't embarrass Jin anymore, you know his true nature." The emperor pleaded.

"Forget it, this matter is not a trivial matter, the Ai family will continue to investigate, if you find out, tell the Ai family." The queen mother ordered.

"Yes, Queen Mother." The three replied in unison.

"Then step back." The queen mother waved her hand and dismissed the three people.

Walking out of Tianxuan Palace, Nishinomiya Jin asked curiously: "Are you also investigating this matter? Who the hell is this guy, who dares to buy ironware in Bianjing and make such a big noise in the lower part of the imperial city, it's really domineering. "

"I don't know." Nishinomiya replied indifferently.

"I don't know either." Xi Gongmo also shook her head.

Seeing that the two elder brothers were not very enthusiastic, Nishinomiya shut up immediately.

After the three left, the Empress Dowager frowned and asked the emperor: "Your Majesty, in your opinion...Which of the three of them is most likely to be the mastermind of this purchase of ironware?"

"Three of them? Do you doubt the three of them, Queen Mother?" The emperor was a little surprised.

"Why? Can't the emperor feel it? This time, it is obvious that he knows us very well this time, so he can easily escape our eyeliner. If it's not them, who is it?" The Queen Mother shouted coldly.

"That's hard to say. I haven't thought about it. After all, the people who bought the ironware seem to be very rich, but I know all of their accounts. No one has so much silver to do this. Is the queen mother worrying too much about this matter?" The emperor obviously didn't want to involve the three brothers in this matter.

"It's not that the Ai family thinks too much, it's their actions that made the Ai family suspicious. Just now when the Ai family said that, I looked at their expressions and reactions, and all of them are suspicious, and none of them can be ruled out." The queen mother analyzed slowly. .

"If there are three of them, in terms of strength, Jue should be stronger." The emperor murmured.

"Nishimiyajue? He's not bad, but he didn't seem to be responsible for the incident this time, because when he was in the barracks, there was still a lot of movement here. I don't believe he can command this place at such a distance? What if It’s not a trivial matter that something went wrong?” The Queen Mother unexpectedly believed in Jue Nishinomiya this time.

The emperor was taken aback: "Then who do you suspect, Empress?"
