Chapter 160 The Qi Family Changes
"...Qi Jinya attempted to poison the emperor, intending to murder the sixth prince, with vicious intentions, and Qi Bohan has no way to teach her daughter. From now on, she will be resigned from the post of secretary of the household department and relegated to the left servant of the household department. She will be fined for three years and self-reflection for a month In addition, the second rank ordered his wife, Qi Xu, and Qi Xie to be demoted to the third rank, and ordered that the children of the Qi family should be strictly disciplined in the future, and there must be no mistakes, this——!"

The content of the imperial decree is not much, but to the Qi family, it is like a bolt from the blue. Even the aunts who were not very good with Xie Anru in the past couldn't smile when they learned that she was demoted to the third rank.

Their master is the household secretary of the second grade, how could he be demoted suddenly! ?

Poisoning the emperor, murdering the six princes, just nine words made Qi Bohan stiff all over, his face was shocked and angry, and when he heard that he was implicated and lost his official position as Minister of the Household Department, his eyes darkened and he almost fainted from anger.

After finally accepting the imperial decree through gritted teeth, Qi Bohan asked the eunuch who announced the decree in disbelief, "My father-in-law, is there any misunderstanding in this? What an audacious thing!"

The eunuch Xuanzhi shook his head, seeing that Qi Bohan, the former Minister of the Household Department, looked quite pitiful, "I don't misunderstand, the emperor and queen, as well as King Yu, Princess Yu, Concubine Wei, etc. personally interrogated, the evidence is solid, Huimei poisoned the emperor before. This incident was actually done by the Yami people, presumably soon the emperor will receive the courtiers and announce the details, Qi Shilang, you..." At first I wanted to express my condolences, but felt something was wrong, so I stopped talking and gave a slight nod , turned around and left.

Xie Anru asked Qi Bohan in a daze, "My lord, just now the imperial decree said that you were demoted? Ya'er, you actually poisoned the emperor, and you're doing it wrong?" How could this be possible, Ya'er won't, someone must have set her up! Yes, yes, the father-in-law who announced the decree said that Princess Yu and that little bitch Qi Jinyu were also there. ,she--"

"Slap!" Qi Bohan turned around angrily and slapped her forcefully, with a grim expression on his face: "Shut up! You are a good daughter!"

Xie Anru was beaten to the ground, and she wiped the back of her hand fiercely, causing her to gasp in pain, "What are you doing!?"

Qi Bohan turned blue with anger, pointed at her nose and cursed, "Jinyu has no reason to frame Ya'er! Her current status is much more valuable than Ya'er, so why not hesitate to make her idea on the emperor and the sixth prince?" !Even if she doesn't do anything, she can still dominate Ya'er all the time!"

Even though he and his eldest daughter had a bad relationship, he was very clear in his heart that if Qi Jinyu and Qi Jinya had such vicious thoughts, it must be the latter!
"It's all about you! You gave up my good daughter, and now I'm dragging my whole family to eat melons. Do you know how many years I have worked hard to climb to the position of Minister of the Household Department? Because of her, everything is ruined now! "

It is easy to be demoted and difficult to be promoted. As long as the new minister does not make big mistakes, and he has such indelible stains on his body, I am afraid that he will never have the chance to regain the position of minister in the future!
This is the official position that he has worked so hard to get for half his life, and it is his lifelong pursuit. It's gone, it's gone!

"No." Qi Bohan suddenly changed his words, his tone was gloomy and regretful, "It should be said that there is a daughter like any mother! An Yuesheng's daughter can become Princess Yu, but your daughter will only give you The Qi family caused trouble, if I knew this, I shouldn't have married you back in the first place!"

Xie Anru was shocked, and her face turned pale instantly, as if struck by lightning, she couldn't believe that the person next to her who had slept in the same bed for so many years could say such cold-blooded and heartless words!
"Ya'er is also your daughter, how can you blame me alone! I didn't know she would dare to do such a thing! You agreed to send her to the palace back then!" Responsibility, or not a man! ?
Qi Bohan said angrily: "It's not that you keep saying that Ya'er is no worse than Jinyu. If Jinyu becomes a princess, she will become the emperor's concubine. In the end, it's just that you want to compete with An Yue's child. That's all! Do you think I don't know your little thoughts!"

Xie Anru's eyes turned even redder upon hearing this name that had almost been a psychological shadow for half of his life.

Qi Jinya continued to accuse, "If you hadn't been intentionally provoking, Jinyu and I would not have separated. With her relationship with King Yu, and my grandson is also the son of King Yu, why worry about our Qi family not being able to prosper all the time?" If you go down, you can even go up one step, but——!"

Xie Anru knew him so well, one could tell from his expression that he was really regretting it from the bottom of his heart.

Just because he heard it, he was even more chilled. He lowered his head to hide his venomous eyes, but his fingers unconsciously grabbed the ground hard, even if the nails were broken and embedded in the flesh, he didn't know it.

Xie Anyue, it's Xie Anyue again!
At this time, the old lady Qi Xu also came back to her senses, rushed over and grabbed Xie Anru's collar and beat her again, "You loser! You are all born to lose money. Do this You don’t even know how to discuss with your family in advance about such a thing that will lose your head, this rebellious woman! Does she want to kill the whole family to be reconciled!”

Before Qi Bohan made his fortune, Mrs. Qi Xu came from an ordinary family. She was just an ordinary old lady who could not read a few characters. She went through a lot of hardships to raise such a most promising son. As an official in the local area, in terms of official position and influence, how can he be compared with the second-rank officials in the capital?

However, even so, when she came to the capital to become the old lady of Qi's mansion, after she was granted the title of imperial lady, she still couldn't get along with the old ladies of other aristocratic and powerful families because of her background and her behavior. When it comes to her, she has always had a good face and is unwilling to look at people's faces. In the past few years, even though her words and deeds have moved closer to the aura that a real official old lady should have, she still doesn't like to show her face very much.

But she is not willing to show her face, it is different from being demoted as a third grade Shuren and shameless to show her face!

When she was getting old, she was killed by her granddaughter so much that she couldn't even keep her life. The old ladies in Beijing who thought highly of themselves and looked down on others didn't know how to laugh at her behind their backs. Just thinking of this made her very angry. It hurts.

"Why is my life so hard—! There is such a granddaughter who lost money and caused trouble! If I had known that she would harm our Qi family, I should have strangled her to death when she was born!"

Xie Anru's complexion became even more gloomy, her fingers were unknowingly soaked in bloodstains, but unfortunately, no one noticed at this time.

The aunts in the other rooms, as well as the crippled Qi Jinrong and the silly and sweet Qi Jinxiang, all looked dazed and at a loss, as if they couldn't recover from the sad news that the head of the family was demoted.

They always thought that they could enjoy the glory and wealth brought to them by being a family member of the Minister of the Household Department for a lifetime, but they didn't know that once there was a sudden change, their wealthy life would be downgraded to a new level! ?
Qi Jinrong suddenly said, "Since it is not the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, this Shangshu Mansion cannot continue to live."

The crowd was shocked.

"No way!" Aunt Chen panicked and said: "We have lived here for more than ten years, are we going to move out just because of this? There are so many people in the family, where will we move at once?"

It is true that their family has a lot of properties, but they are all farms, shops and the like. Apart from the Shangshu Mansion in the capital, there is no other real estate that can accommodate all of them.

Aunt Sanfang Ji is not in the mood to fight with Aunt Chen at this time, her beautiful face in the past was full of sorrow, she sighed and said: "It is a small matter when the emperor and prince are involved, not to mention that the Shangshufu is specially prepared to give you a special treatment." The mansion where the Shangshu lived was not given to the master, once there is a problem with the official position, it can only be made room for the next Shangshu."

The new Hubu Shangshu still doesn't know who he is or how he is related to the master. If they don't deal with it, they take the opportunity to make trouble, and come to chase people before they have packed their luggage, then they really don't have any face left.

Moreover, there was a sentence that she thought about but still didn't say it, she just glanced at Xie Anru who couldn't see his expression clearly due to the extremely low air pressure all over her body.

The imperial decree didn't say how Qi Jinya would deal with it, but after doing such a horrible thing, even the master's official position could not be kept, Qi Jinya... I'm afraid she might die.

It's not that Aunt Ji didn't think that the master's words of obviously shirking responsibility just now were cold-blooded, but she felt that there was some truth in her heart.

If the Qi family and Qi Jinyu get on well, there may not be such a day.

Qi Jinya's temperament is not suitable for living in a place like the palace that cannibalize people. With the face of the Qi family and Princess Yu, find her a family with a lower family status than the Qi family to be the head of the house. Something really happened , the Qi family can completely suppress it, and can also seek benefits for her mother's family, why not do it?
Now it's all right, everyone will have to suffer if the mess has become like this, are you satisfied?

Aunt Ji's words were not pleasant to listen to. Qi Bohan and Qi Xu, who had been crying all the time, were extremely dark, but they didn't attack her. Why didn't they understand this in their hearts?It was just that it was difficult to digest the sudden bad news for a while, and I couldn't think of it right away.

The common problem of the Qi family is good face, very good face!
They couldn't accept the fact that they were going to move out of the home they had lived in for more than 20 or [-] years, but they couldn't tolerate being kicked out even more!

In fact, thinking about it from another angle, someone in the family almost killed the emperor and the prince. They did not directly ransack the family and exterminate the family like the previous Lin family, and they were able to keep the position of the third-rank household servant, which is already a great blessing among misfortunes.

The status of third-rank officials in Beijing is not too low, and they have the previous foundation, that is, they live in another place. The various industries under the name of the Qi family are still there, and they can continue to make profits. They may not be able to continue to enjoy their future lives. At most, it is only temporarily lowering the level a little bit.

However, the old lady thought about the three-year punishment of the fine salary. The basic salary is nothing, but the three-year maintenance silver adds up to thousands of taels. very painful.
