It's impossible to send people away so quickly. This is the only way to think about it.
Zhao Jin just smiled and said nothing, but he looked completely unafraid.
The three people from the Qi family have already left. No matter how much they search, it is impossible to conjure three more people out of thin air.
As for the rest of the people in the Duke's Mansion, their words are strict enough, so there is no need to worry.
Zhao Qian's eyes lingered on Zhao Jin and Ma Tao, and he asked in a deep voice: "What are your plans?"
The deep voice had a hint of displeasure, but Ma Tao didn't notice it.
He raised his hand to Zhao Qian and said, "Your Majesty, I suggest that we simply call all the people in the Duke's mansion into the courtyard, and then conduct a search again."
Zhao Jin felt that as Ma Tao finished speaking, Zhao Qian's eyes fell on him.
Zhao Jin suppressed the smile on his face and looked at Ma Tao, "Of course I have no problem, but..."
His voice became sharper in vain, "What if the three members of the Qi family are not found? What are the doctor's plans?"
"I haven't found that official..." Ma Tao's voice suddenly stopped. Zhao Jin still didn't panic at all, but it made him more and more panicked.
He swallowed and changed his words, "I couldn't find it. Maybe I was blind that day."
Hearing this, Zhao Jin turned his head and glanced at Zhao Qian, who had a dark face, and laughed with unknown meaning.
"Go and call everyone out."
Zhao Jin hesitated for a while and finally nodded. It seemed that he couldn't hold back today.
Zhao Jin asked Takeda to go down and call everyone out.
Everyone gathered in the courtyard, and in front of them were the anxious people of the Duke's Mansion.
Chu Weiqing stood closer to Zhao Jin.
Chu Weiqing's clothes were completely different from those of the maids, which immediately attracted the attention of Zhao Qian and others.
"Who are you?"
"The daughter of the people comes to see your majesty." Chu Weiqing blessed Zhao Qian and looked at Zhao Jin for help.
Zhao Jin took a step forward and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, Ah Qing is the woman I intend to marry."
Upon hearing Zhao Jin's words, Zhao Qian's eyes suddenly changed.
No longer just looking at an insignificant person, but now looking at his own daughter-in-law.
He frowned, "Which family does she belong to?"
"Ah Qing is the one I met on the way to Yunzhou County."
What I met on the road meant that Chu Weiqing was just a commoner.
Zhao Qian's brows suddenly furrowed even more tightly, "What do you do at home?"
He was asking about Chu Weiqing.
Chu Weiqing said nervously: "The civilian daughter and grandpa depend on each other, mainly to get some herbs."
"Medical woman?"
"Um."
The dissatisfaction in Zhao Qian's eyes almost took shape, "Duke Xuanping, this girl is acceptable as a concubine, but her status as a wife is too low."
Chu Weiqing's face turned a little pale, but he barely maintained his etiquette.
"Your Majesty, if it weren't for Ah Qing, I would have fallen into the river and died. How could I still be as beautiful as I am now?" Zhao Jin lowered his face coldly, blocked Chu Weiqing behind him, and looked straight into Zhao Qian's probing gaze.
Zhao Qian frowned. When he heard that Chu Weiqing rescued Zhao Jin, he looked better. He wanted to say something, but was interrupted by a familiar voice.
"Marriage has always been the order of the parents and the matchmaker. As Zhao Jin's mother, I have already agreed to this matter."
Ning Huan walked out of the inner courtyard calmly and raised his head to meet Zhao Qian's gaze.
"Ning Huan?" Suddenly seeing the person who thought he was dead, Zhao Qian was stunned and his eyes were glued to Ning Huan.
"I am here to meet Your Majesty."
Ma Tao looked at this person who appeared out of nowhere and was about to scold him when he suddenly realized what he had just said.
mother?
Zhao Jin’s mother?
Isn’t that Mrs. Liang Wang’s wife, Mrs. Ning?
Hadn't she already died in the plague before? Where did this girl come from?
As his thoughts turned around, Ma Tao understood and blurted out: "Are you the dead Mrs. Ning?"
Ning Huan knelt down calmly, "Yes, in order to escape from Prince Liang's palace, I faked my death to escape."
Zhao Jin pursed his lips, then stood next to Ning Huan and knelt down together, "Your Majesty, this matter was planned by me. Please forgive me."
"Duke Xuanping," Ma Tao suppressed his excitement, "This is the crime of deceiving the emperor. What a fool!"
I was still thinking that if the three brothers of the Qi family were not found, Zhao Jin would be able to escape. Unexpectedly, there was an unexpected gain.
Zhao Jin tilted his head, glanced at Ma Tao coldly, and then turned to look at Zhao Qian, "Your Majesty, your Majesty must have heard about the situation of my minister and my mother in Prince Liang's Mansion."
"Although I faked my death at that time and rescued my mother from Prince Liang's mansion."
Zhao Jin emphasized the word "rescue" specially.
As expected, Zhao Qian's eyes trembled slightly.
He took a breath and continued: "But at that time, I had already prepared the prescription for the solution to the plague and handed it to Prince Liang's Mansion."
"Princess Liang, because her mother had been favored, had evil intentions and deliberately changed the prescription, so that her mother could not recover after she contracted the plague."
Recalling what happened at that time, Zhao Jin was filled with hatred and fear, and even his voice became hoarse. "If I go back a day or two late, I'm afraid I won't be able to see my mother for the last time."
Zhao Jin leaned down and kowtowed, "I was worried that if I continued to leave my mother there, she would not even be able to see her body, so I came up with this idea."
"Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
Mrs. Ning's eyes were calm, she raised her head and looked at Zhao Qian, "Your Majesty, this matter happened because of me. If you want to punish me, I should also be punished."
"Mom!" Zhao Jin suddenly raised his head and looked at Mrs. Ning, breathing heavily.
Neither of them knew what Zhao Qian meant now.
Zhao Jin was not sure whether he would really let go of the matter because of guilt.
Hearing Mrs. Ning's words, his heart tightened.
Zhao Qian looked at the mother and son in front of him. He later heard about the life they lived in Prince Liang's mansion.
However, he originally thought that Ning Huan was just infected with the plague, but he did not expect that there was such a story in it.
"Princess Liang died so easily, she really took advantage of her!"
Zhao Qian felt guilty towards Zhao Jin and Ning Huan, and Zhao Jin had outstanding abilities. Although Zhao Qian didn't say it, he was a little happy and proud in his heart.
What's more, Zhao Jin's move was to save people and give him a chance.
"Get up quickly!"
Zhao Qian stepped forward and helped Mrs. Ning up, "The Duke of Xuanping did it to save his mother. This is a great filial piety. It is understandable that he would not dare to publicize it later."
Zhao Qian's eyes never left Ning Huan, "Small punishments and big warnings are enough. Let's punish the Duke of the country to stay in the mansion for five days to reflect on himself behind closed doors."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Zhao Jin bowed to Zhao Qian.
Ning Huan also thanked him and saluted, and struggled out of Zhao Qian's hand without leaving any trace.
