There are those who impeach Prince Huai's house for lax family traditions and causing chaos in the house;
There are those who impeach King Huai for doting on his concubines and despising his concubines, which is unreasonable;
There are also issues of impeachment and Xie Xun’s personal style.
General Qin was also affected and was included in several books.
After all, the rumors that he had killed his wife in the past were not a thing of the past in Kyoto.
General Qin only felt that he was really unlucky. When it came to Aunt Liu, he originally wanted to let her suffer in the Yamen for a few days to teach her a lesson.
Then he established a relationship with the county magistrate and brought the person back. Now that the matter has been brought to light, it is impossible not to severely punish him.
Qin Rushuang didn't know much about the disputes in the court, but he could guess pretty well.
So Qin Rushuang was in a very good mood, so she decided to go out and buy some rouge.
Speaking of which, the boss lady did her a big favor before.
When the proprietress of the rouge shop knew that the princess was coming, she was naturally flattered and closed the shop to receive Qin Rushuang alone.
Qin Rushuang also knew a lot about rouge and gouache, and she had a great conversation with the landlady, and for some reason, the conversation ended up talking about Qin Fanghao.
The landlady talked about the jar of rouge that Qin Fanghao had taken away before.
It was said that the jar of rouge contained an ingredient that was very harmful to pregnant women, and the scent of that ingredient was very unique, so many pregnant women would avoid using it.
Qin Rushuang suddenly remembered that Qin Fang still used that jar of rouge every day, and felt a little strange.
It stands to reason that Qin Fanghao, with such a precious baby in her belly, should not be unaware of this matter. Moreover, she has a doctor she trusts by her side. The doctor should also remind her. How could she not notice it at all?
Qin Rushuang stayed at the rouge shop for a while and returned to the palace with doubts in her heart.
She thought about that day in the courtroom when Dr. Cao helped Qin Fang take his pulse, and her brows were furrowed. Could it be that she had discovered something strange?
But now that Dr. Cao Yu was taking care of Qin Fanghao in the Zongren Mansion and had no chance to call him in for questioning, Qin Rushuang could only suppress her doubts.
It was almost noon when Xie Xun finally came back.
Xie Xun looked even more tired than when he left the palace in the morning, his lips were chapped, and he had talked a lot at first sight.
Qin Rushuang was waiting for him to ask for help, but Xie Xun didn't say anything. He only said that he would go to the palace with him in the afternoon because his father and mother had something to say.
Qin Rushuang nodded, and the development of the matter was almost as she expected.
She never really thought about using this matter to kill Qin Fanghao. After all, as long as Qin Fanghao still had this child in his belly, he could save his life no matter what.
However, Qin Rushuang still had to think carefully about how to make requests to His Majesty and the noble concubine in the afternoon.
The weather has gradually warmed up in the past few days, and Qin Rushuang also changed into light clothes.
When the two people arrived at the palace, they were led to the imperial concubine's palace, and the emperor was naturally present.
As soon as Qin Rushuang arrived, the imperial concubine smiled all over her face and stood up quickly, "Good boy, you are finally here. My mother misses you very much."
Qin Rushuang also greeted her with a smile, and even the emperor nodded slightly at her.
Qin Rushuang knew that they were planning to be polite before fighting. After all, it was Qin's fault in the final analysis.
"Good boy, my concubine will not beat around the bush with you. You must also know why I called you here today."
After she finished speaking, she immediately said to Xie Xun: "Nizi, why are you still standing? Your wife is pregnant, don't you know how to get her some softer cushions?"
After expressing her attitude first, the imperial concubine then explained her purpose of coming.
"My mother knows that you have been wronged recently, and I also know that you are taking the matter to court. You really can't bear it anymore."
"But now that things are getting serious, it is not good for the reputation of the royal family and Xun'er's reputation. I still hope that you can let Qin Fang go for the time being."
Afraid of Qin Rushuang's disapproval, the imperial concubine quickly said, "Of course, it's not just about handling it with care. As long as you don't hurt the child, everything else is up to you."
Qin Rushuang made a flattered expression: "It's all because of my ignorance that made my father and mother worried. In fact, I was not sure what to do about this matter, so I took the matter to court.
No matter what others think, Daqi's laws are always just."
The emperor and the noble concubine looked at each other. Qin Rushuang even brought out Da Qi's laws. It seemed that the punishment would not be too light later.
"Good boy, tell me what you want to do?"
"Mother, in fact, you have watched my son grow up. You know my son's temperament. If they weren't too aggressive about something, I wouldn't have done it to the extreme."
"After all, I am happy that she is pregnant with the prince's child, but Qin Fang's good temper needs to change."
"These things are okay in the back house. No one dares to talk nonsense outside the back house. But her aunt has caused scandals outside the house. I heard that people are now talking about how arrogant the family members of Prince Huai's house are.
domineering."
"It's better to do this. I don't ask for much, and the child in your belly must be the top priority. She is impetuous now, so why not let her recuperate in the side hospital and don't come out before the child is born."
Qin Rushuang's intention was to issue a "no-foot order" for Qin Fang's benefit, but how could it be enough if he just issued a no-foot order?
So Qin Rushuang added: "One more thing, my sister, who was born as a concubine, is really a little impetuous. When she is raising her baby in a private hospital, I will arrange for a few more disciplinarians to teach her the rules."
"After all, the general's palace is also responsible for this matter. A good young lady did not teach the rules well when she was in the boudoir, and she made such jokes for nothing when she came to the palace."
After Qin Rushuang finished speaking her thoughts, the emperor and the imperial concubine breathed a sigh of relief.
The look he looked at her showed a little guilt and gratitude.
They originally thought that Qin Rushuang would cling to this matter, but they didn't expect that in the end they just issued a grounding order and hired someone to discipline her, which was considered decent and generous.
Moreover, Qin Rushuang always cared about the child in Qin Fanghao's belly, and even took the initiative to plead guilty and tell her mother's fault, which made both the emperor and the noble concubine more satisfied with Qin Rushuang.
They were really happy for Xie Xun to have such a knowledgeable lady.
So they all nodded in agreement.
Seeing that the emperor and the imperial concubine were both satisfied with her words, Qin Rushuang took advantage of the situation to make another request.
"There are some things that I shouldn't say as a junior, but my father has gotten older in recent years and has become more and more indecisive in doing things. He spoiled Aunt Liu to the point of being lawless. Qin Fanghao would act like this, and Aunt Liu also has the responsibility to discipline her improperly.
."
As soon as the imperial concubine heard this, she knew that what Qin Rushuang meant was that she could treat Qin Fang lightly, but she would have to deal harshly with Aunt Liu who was causing trouble in the back house of the General's Mansion.
In fact, she couldn't stand Aunt Liu who came from a small family. Moreover, she heard that Aunt Liu had lived in a brothel before and was redeemed by General Qin. She was not a good thing after all.
So he made a decision: "Good boy, just tell me what you think. Even if you don't say anything about such an unethical woman, I will still hold her accountable."
With the concubine's guarantee, Qin Rushuang spoke.
"The back house of the general's mansion cannot tolerate such a troublesome concubine."
The imperial concubine nodded, she understood what Qin Rushuang meant.
After the General's Mansion, there is no aunt anymore.
