Chapter 122 Take it!

Qi Ningyu originally just wanted to take over the reception of these noble ladies herself so as not to make the Qi family too rude, but what she didn't expect was that during the chat with the noble ladies, she found out that today's banquet was actually organized in her name.

She had no idea about it.

The only person she wanted to invite today was Ye Jinshu.

Although Qi Jiaojiao's actions just now had already made her identify the culprit today, when the truth of the matter was once again revealed in a more intuitive way, Qi Ningyu still found it difficult to accept.

My father doesn't care about me at all now.

Not only did he treat his mother like that, he also used her to deal with the princess.

Now that things have come to this, why should she hesitate?

Qi Ningyu pretended to know nothing as she received the ladies, and by the way, spread what happened today in a way that was beneficial to Ye Jinshu.

As for Qi Jiaojiao and Aunt Zhang, who were still kneeling in the yard and dared not stand up, they could only stand up after Master Qi came back and apologized in the palace.

Ye Jinshu endured the itch and was helped to the carriage by the two men. As soon as he got into the carriage, he wanted to laugh as soon as he opened his eyes.

Jiang Sisi discovered it and stopped it first.

Jiang Sisi said: "Princess, you can't wake up now. You have to be unconscious in the palace and let everyone know that you have been wronged in the Qi family, and you were wronged by a concubine."

Ye Jinshu blinked, and Jiang Sisi knew that she had something to say, so she let go of her hand.

Ye Jinshu then said: "But, I really want to laugh."

Jiang Sisi smiled again: "If the princess feels that she is not pretending well, I can also help her to faint for real."

Ye Jinshu: "Then I'm going to really faint."

Jiang Sisi knew that Ye Jinshu would come up with this answer, and immediately stretched out her hand: "Princess, I'm sorry."

Ye Jinshu was about to say something when he suddenly felt a black screen in front of his eyes. When he woke up again, he was back in the familiar place of Anping Palace.

Ye Jinshu had just opened his eyes, and his mind was not yet fully awake when a choked voice came from the side: "Jinshu, how do you feel?"

Ye Jinshu turned around and saw the queen standing beside him with a worried look on her face. She subconsciously said, "Aunt, I'm fine."

Ye Jinshu was telling the truth. Although she was unconscious for a while, she didn't feel anything wrong with her body after waking up.

But the queen didn't believe it. She stubbornly thought that Ye Jinshu said that on purpose because he didn't want her to worry. After all, everything that happened in Qi's mansion today had already reached her ears.

She had known that Ye Jinshu would suffer this sooner or later, but when Ye Jinshu really encountered such a thing, she still felt very distressed.

This is the only child of those two people, why must he be treated like this?

"Jinshu, your aunt has already sent someone to arrest those two unreasonable people. You can do whatever you want to them. No matter what happens, your aunt will cover it for you."

Ye Jinshu blinked, and the queen supported her.

This is also the first time this has happened.

If she was angry, she had already said it. She was not a person who would let herself be wronged, but the queen had to make the decision for her, and she felt she would be at a disadvantage if she didn't say anything. Ye Jinshu nudged the queen and said coquettishly, "Aunt, I have already taught them a lesson, how could I let myself be wronged."

The queen's heart softened when she heard this, and she was even more disgusted with the two people from the Qi family who offended Ye Jinshu: "Jinshu, you must tell your aunt if you are wronged."

Ye Jinshu thought about it and realized that there was obviously something wrong with the Qi family. He might as well let the Queen investigate what was going on, which would also help Qi Ningyu a little.

Thinking of this, Ye Jinshu said, "Aunt, I was invited to the Qi family to find Ningyu this time, but when I got there, I found that the mistress of the Qi family was not at home. It was the aunt who was in charge. That's why the concubine of the Qi family is so arrogant."

The Queen was already sensitive about the distinction between legitimate and illegitimate children because of the relationship between Ye Ruoyan and Ye Jinshu. She did not expect that such a situation also existed in the Qi family, and she immediately became angry.

When she heard Ye Jinshu crying, she wanted to kill the two men to vent her anger, but she was the daughter of a court official after all, so she had to have a reason to do it. Now the knife was in her hands.

"Don't worry, Jinshu. Your aunt will definitely give you justice."

Ye Jinshu nodded repeatedly: "Yeah."

If the Queen took action, she wouldn't have to worry about Qi Ningyu suffering any loss.

The Queen stayed at Ye Jinshu's place for quite a while before leaving. It was said that only after the Queen left did Qi Jiaojiao and Aunt Zhang, who were kneeling outside the door, were allowed to stand up.

This matter does not end here.

The noble lady that Qi Jiaojiao and the others had deliberately called in to frame Ye Jinshu finally became the knife that stabbed them.

The noble ladies were all saying that because of Ye Ruoyan's rise to power, some concubines' daughters could no longer clearly distinguish the superiority and inferiority of legitimate and illegitimate daughters, and even Ye Ruoyan's reputation was affected.

After all, it was no secret that Ye Ruoyan had gone to the Qi family for medical treatment before. Now that Ye Jinshu happened to be at the Qi family, it was hard not to suspect that Ye Ruoyan had instructed it.

Because of this incident, Mr. Qi was ridiculed many times by the Prime Minister in the court, both openly and secretly.

When Master Qi was angry, he would naturally vent his anger on the two people who caused the trouble when he returned home, saying that concubines were not worthy of being in the upper class.

But when he wanted to change someone to take care of the house, he found out that his wife had already returned to her parents' home, and he only discovered it now.

Mr. Qi was too embarrassed to go to her parents' home to pick her up, so he just wrote a letter and asked her to come back on her own.

No one responded to the letter that was sent, so Mr. Qi asked Qi Ningyu to persuade them to come back, but Qi Ningyu never came back.

After Qi Ningyu also lived in her mother's house, someone in the court soon accused the Qi family of favoring the concubine and neglecting the wife. The evidence was that Master Qi colluded with his aunt to poison his wife, and intended to torture her when she was weak to vent his anger.

Originally, the people on the Queen's side had only discovered the poisoning, but Master Qi's behavior during this period had chilled Aunt Zhang's heart. Now that the matter had been exposed, she understood that based on Master Qi's character, he would definitely push all the blame onto her and his daughter and clear himself of all charges.

She would rather die than see Master Qi suffer.

Only then did he confess everything, including the fact that Master Qi had been dissatisfied with his wife for a long time, and not only had he poisoned her to death, he had also taught himself how to torture her to death.

Master Qi naturally denied this accusation. Just like Aunt Zhang thought, he even pushed the blame of poisoning onto his concubine. As for the torture, he just said it was slander.

It was not until Qi Ningyu took out the book that was found in his study, which was not really evidence, that his sophistry was finally silenced.

Mr. Qi eventually lost his official position. As for what happened to Qi Jiaojiao and Aunt Zhang, Ye Jinshu didn't care. After all, the Queen would not let them have an easy time.

After Qi Ningyu's mother received the divorce letter, her condition began to improve, and Qi Ningyu finally had time to come to the palace more often to accompany Ye Jinshu.
