Chapter 498 Maintenance


Chapter 498 Maintenance

You know, breaking into the carriage of the eldest daughter of the Yellow Flower, although it is not a serious crime, but it will still be ridiculed.

What's the difference between this and that shameless rogue behavior?

"But, Your Majesty, Chu Jingqi has great martial arts skills. I don't believe that he didn't know that the person who got on the carriage was me. He just broke my legs on purpose. Your Majesty, my legs are broken... He broke my legs, Your Majesty." , you have to make the decision..."

As he said this, Rong San shed tears.

The emperor frowned and looked at him, "So, you want to break into Princess Chu Yu's carriage and Chu Jingqi kicks you, and it only breaks one of your legs. Do you feel aggrieved?"


At the end of the sentence, the emperor's voice became a little colder.

Rong San's choked voice paused, and he quickly lowered his head and said with a trembling heart, "I don't dare, I just..."

"I just think we can't take advantage of Chu Jingqi like this, right?" The emperor took his words and looked at him coldly.

A layer of cold sweat broke out on Rong San's back, and he was too frightened to answer the question.

He was at fault for what happened yesterday, and Chu Jingqi was at fault. Both of them were at fault. In fact, there was no need to bring trouble to the emperor. However, he was unwilling to take advantage of Chu Jingqi like this. Besides, he was in front of Chu Jingqi yesterday, He has already boasted about Haikou and wanted to file a lawsuit. Since he said it but did not do it, wouldn't Chu Jingqi look down on him?

It was because he was holding his breath that he had the courage to file a complaint.

"A thief stole something and was beaten. Should the thief also go to the government office to sue someone for beating him?" the emperor scolded.

Rong San secretly broke into Princess Chu Yu's carriage and wanted to violate Princess Chu Yu. How was this behavior different from that of the thief?

Seeing that the emperor was on his side, Chu Jingqi felt very happy. He couldn't help it, so he added fuel to the fire and said with great grievance, "Your Majesty, Rong San wanted to kill me yesterday. Killing me doesn't count." , I still want to take away my fiancée. If you don’t believe me, your Majesty can ask Princess Qinghui. It was Princess Qinghui who saved us yesterday. If Princess Qinghui hadn’t arrived in time, the Emperor wouldn’t have been able to see her at this time. The minister has arrived.”

He also exaggerated things.

The emperor's face became even darker and he glared at Rong San angrily, "Rong San, you dare to kill Prince An Guo and Princess Chu Yu, who gave you the courage?"

"Your Majesty, I am unjust. He beat me and ruined my appearance. I just wanted him to go to the government office to argue with me, but he didn't go, so I had no choice but to take action..."

"If he doesn't go, you have no choice but to kill him?" the emperor shouted.

"No, I just want to catch him, and I don't even know that Princess Chu Yu is also in the carriage. If I knew, no one would do anything. Your Majesty, I am really innocent."

Rong San could no longer care that he was still injured. He was so frightened that he quickly knelt down and kowtowed to the emperor.

The wooden board hit the ground hard, causing Rong San's eyebrows to twist up in pain.

Chu Jingqi acted as if he hadn't seen it.

The emperor snorted, his face relaxed a little, and he waved his hand and said, "Okay, don't kneel to me anymore. Although it was Chu Jingqi's fault for breaking your leg, you were at fault first, so you can't blame him. This matter is just So far, no one will mention it from now on.”

Rong San was anxious and was about to defend himself, but when he saw the emperor's sinister gaze directed at him, Rong San also understood that the emperor had made it clear that he wanted to protect Chu Jingqi.

His face turned pale, and he hurriedly leaned down and said tremblingly, "My lord, I obey the order."

The emperor hummed and then issued an order, "Also, Rong San, you have offended Chu Yu. Remember to pick a gift and go and apologize to Chu Yu." "Yes, I obey the order."

This time, Rong San felt relieved.

He would be happy to see Chu Yu and see what she looked like, let alone apologize, just let him kneel down.

After Rong San was helped down, the emperor asked Chu Jingqi to stand up and looked at him with a half-smile, "Take a vacation with me, take a carriage together, and accompany your fiancée to roast pheasant in the mountains behind Huguo Temple. Aqi, it seems, You are very elegant, I am jealous just looking at you.”

"Your Majesty is joking. Your Majesty, the king of a country, how can you covet your ministers if you don't have any kind of beauty?"

Chu Jingqi said respectfully.

Then, with a look of resentment, he said, "In a few days, I will be separated from Ayu again. In the past few years, my life has been very difficult. Your Majesty, why don't you give me an imperial edict so that I can get married as soon as possible?" Ayu, okay?”

"Didn't you say that you can't get married before the age of nineteen?" A trace of surprise flashed in the emperor's eyes, "Is this a lie?"

"True and false, false and true, your Majesty, do you understand in your heart?" Chu Jingqi despised him, "I don't believe it, you don't know that it's all Ayu's stepmother's trick."

"Why did her stepmother plot against her like this?" This is what the emperor was curious about.

Xia Zihan was raised in the Chu family, and her stepmother was not allowed to make the decision about her marriage. If that was the case, why did her stepmother want her to get married after she was nineteen years old?

Chu Jingqi frowned and thought for a while before saying, "As for what benefits Ayu's stepmother can get from this plan, I really can't see it for the time being, but..."

"After the signature appeared, I thought about many possibilities. Only one possibility would allow her stepmother to take risks to delay her marriage."

"At that time, the Chu family did not adopt Chu Yuexi. Mrs. Chu was old and her health was not very good. She might pass away at some time."

"Ayu holds the entire Chu family's property. If Mrs. Chu passes away after she gets married, then her stepmother will have nothing to do with this property. But if Ayu doesn't leave before she leaves, Mrs. Chu will go Well, if her stepmother, as Ayu’s nominal mother, comes to intervene in the affairs of the Chu family’s property, I’m afraid no one will say anything.”

After all, she is Ayu's nominal mother, and Ayu is still an unmarried girl. It is understandable that a mother should take care of her unmarried daughter's property.

"If Ayu resists, the word disobedience is enough to obliterate Ayu as a person."

"Also, Ayu has a sister, born to her stepmother, who is three years younger than Ayu. Ayu is nineteen years old, and her sister is exactly sixteen..."

Then, Chu Jingqi told the emperor about the vicious things Xia Ziying had done. He even confessed to the whole plot in the Chu family.

"That time, if Ayu hadn't been clever, Ayu would have stepped into the trap set by her and Chu Jingwen, and I wouldn't have been able to stand here properly and talk to the emperor."

"Now, it is her own fault that Xia Ziying ended up like that. It's just a pity that my father-in-law has been upright and dull all his life, upright and honest. He is a good official like Mr. Chu Ge. He has no evil intentions, but he married a vicious woman. That vicious woman also gave birth to a vicious daughter. My father-in-law has been quite unlucky in his life.”
