Chapter 119 Deserve it
The Queen then ordered, "Come here, send Consort De back to the palace and keep her under house arrest for three months.
Madam Liu, Miss Liu is from the Prime Minister's residence, so you should take her back."
The Prime Minister's wife had never been so embarrassed before. At this moment, she wanted to crawl into a crack in the ground.
She had long noticed that the Third Prince was interested in Xue'er, but she never expected that they would actually eat the forbidden fruit.
Two stupid people, they could have an affair anywhere, but they chose the worst place.
Now, his reputation is ruined. By tomorrow, the whole capital will know about the Third Prince's romantic affair.
The Third Prince helped Liu Xueer up, his face full of guilt: "Cousin, in a few days, I will definitely marry you as my concubine."
Liu Xueer nodded slightly, as if she had suffered a lot of grievances. She didn't dare to look at the Prime Minister's wife and walked directly out of the palace.
The other women also bowed to the Queen and said, "Your Majesty, I will take my leave."
A good birthday party was ruined by the matter of the third prince, and the queen looked unhappy.
Leng Jiuyuan and Ye Qingyan came before the Queen and clasped their fists together: "Mother, I will take my leave."
"Xiao Qi, this is your first time attending my birthday banquet, and I've already made you see so many jokes. I don't know if you ate well or not. I really feel bad for you."
Ye Qingyan said gently, "My Lady, you didn't want this to happen. It's their fault. Jiuyuan and I are going back.
In the next two days, I will extract the essence and send it to the palace, and then teach Yu Ma Ma how to use the beauty instrument."
The anger on the queen's face immediately disappeared, "Okay, I'll be waiting for you."
Leng Jiuyuan nodded and clasped his fists: "Your son will take his leave!"
"Xiao Qi, take your leave!"
"Be careful on the road!" the queen warned.
Leng Jiuyuan and Ye Qingyan walked out of the palace and got on the carriage.
Ye Qingyan said excitedly: "It's what he deserves! He couldn't design for others, so he designed himself first and ruined his reputation.
Fortunately, you are smart. I will give you some love powder and antidote. If anyone annoys you again, just give them out. We have plenty of these things.
The Third Prince is quite idle and has ambitions to compete for the throne. He knows you are capable and the Emperor is wary of you, which makes the Emperor dislike you even more."
Leng Jiuyuan's eyes were blazing with anger. "De Fei has always had ambitions to become the Empress Dowager, and with the Prime Minister as her backer, she has been keeping it a secret, wanting Third Brother to compete for the throne. But is he the right material?"
Ye Qingyan smiled and said, "I think the Third Prince is a fool. If he becomes the emperor, the Eastern Qin Kingdom will no longer exist."
"It makes sense."
Before they knew it, the carriage arrived on the street. Ye Qingyan said, "Jiuyuan, I'm going to check the shop. I'll get off first."
Leng Jiuyuan warned: "Don't get too tired."
Ye Qingyan made an OK gesture and got off the carriage.
Feng Yi and Feng Jiu asked, "Master, where are we going?"
"You two go to Baicaotang. You don't need to follow me. I'll be back soon."
Feng Yi and Feng Jiu didn't ask any more questions and walked straight towards Baicaotang.
Ye Qingyan walked to a corner and disappeared in a flash.
She came to the door of the Third Prince's Mansion and flashed into the space.
"You dare to cheat my Jiuyuan? I will cheat you to death."
She entered the mansion and began to look for the warehouse. As usual, she jumped to the roof of the highest building and looked to see where there were the most guards. It must be the warehouse.
She went to the warehouse, where there were more than twenty guards guarding the yard.
Ye Qingyan muttered to herself in the space: "It's just a small warehouse, and there are so many people guarding it."
She walked straight in and then left the space.
The warehouse was large and dark inside, with no windows and only one door.
Ye Qingyan took out a flashlight and shone it over. Boxes of gold, silver, and jewelry were neatly arranged on the ground, and there were some brocade boxes of different sizes on the shelves.
She opened a brocade box at random and took a look. Inside was a jade gourd that was more than a foot tall and emerald green.
He opened a large brocade box next to it, and inside was a golden ruyi, more than two feet long, inlaid with various gems.
“I didn’t expect there are such good things here.”
With a wave of her hand, everything in the warehouse disappeared, including the shelves.
Ye Qingyan went to the second important place, the third prince's courtyard.
She went to the study first and began searching.
Finally, in a hidden place, she found two small boxes.
One box contained letters exchanged with officials from various places, and the other box contained silver bills.
Ye Qingyan curled the corners of her mouth and waved her hand. The two boxes entered the space, and she teleported to the emperor's bedroom.
…………
Emperor Xuancheng was lying on the bed, cursing, "The Third Lady is such a piece of shit. If she wanted to be with Liu Xue'er, she could go anywhere, but she had to do this shameful thing in the palace. She's brought shame upon me!"
Qin Wuyi advised: "Your Majesty, they are cousins. You were young once, and you know that once you are moved by love, you will lose control."
The emperor's eyes were deep and he questioned: "You don't mean that Lao Jiu framed them?"
Qin Dazongjian gave a bitter smile and said, "My emperor, this is the imperial palace. How could the Ninth Prince bring the two of them together in front of everyone?
At that time, I saw a palace maid in the Third Prince's palace calling the Ninth Prince to go out. As for what she said, it was too far away and I couldn't hear clearly.
The prince also saw it, as the two of them were talking at the time."
Emperor Xuancheng remained silent, pondered for a moment, and then said, "So that's how it is. The third brother has a vicious heart. He plotted against the ninth brother but failed, and ended up falling into his own trap.
Come, order the Third Prince to remain confined to his palace for a year. If he dares to leave without permission, he will be demoted to a commoner and fined a year's salary."
Qin Wuyi was stunned at that moment, and the emperor finally came to his senses.
He was Leng Jiuyuan's man and remained silent at this time.
"I'm a little thirsty!"
"This old servant will pour you some tea."
Qin Wuyi turned around and suddenly saw a small box on the table. He was surprised: "Your Majesty, who took this box? Why didn't I see it when I came in?"
The emperor also looked at the table. "There was clearly nothing there just now, how come a box appeared in the blink of an eye? Open it and see what's inside!"
Qin Wuyi opened the small box and said, "Your Majesty, there are some letters and agreements inside."
"Present them all."
Qin Wuyi took out all the letters, placed them beside the bed, and then picked up another letter and handed it to the emperor.
Leng Aotian took out the letter and unfolded it, his expression suddenly changed: "You are so good, Third Brother, you actually formed a clique for personal gain. You haven't even become the emperor yet, but you gave away the position of Minister of War."
Qin Wuyi took out all the letter papers and handed them to the emperor.
The more Emperor Xuancheng read, the angrier he became. Finally, he threw the letter to the ground in anger and said, "All the important official positions have been given away. Come, bring the Third Prince to the palace immediately!"
Qin Wuyi smiled in his heart: You deserve it, you cheated the Ninth Prince.
"I was on guard against Lao Jiu every day, but I didn't expect that he didn't rebel, and instead gave those ambitious people an opportunity.
Don’t you even look at your own abilities and see if you are cut out for it?
Come, announce the decree: Consort De is incompetent in raising her children, and is demoted to Consort De. Let the six palaces know."
"Yes, I will make arrangements now."
…………
When Concubine De returned to the palace, she was so angry that she threw all the tea sets on the table to the ground: "This loser, why did he want to harm Lao Jiu? Is Lao Jiu so easy to deal with?
"You stole the chicken but ended up losing the rice. Your reputation has plummeted, and I have been implicated and confined to my house."
A moment later, a young eunuch entered the palace and announced the decree, "De Fei, receive the decree."
De Fei hurried to the courtyard and knelt down, "De Fei, please accept the decree. The Emperor has verbally ordered that De Fei be demoted to Depin for failing to raise her children."
"Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty!"
Concubine De suddenly collapsed to the ground. She felt so badly betrayed by her son this time. Tears streamed down her face...
