Today she antagonized herself, and she was aware that this matter would be catastrophic for Cen Hongping.
But as for Emperor Yongan, she really had no plans, only four words: Leave it to destiny.
Yang Ye shook his head and said, “It wouldn’t go as far as amending the Daqi Law, but besides law, there is also human sentiment. Laws are rigid, people are not. The Daqi Law doesn’t explicitly relate to disownment, but it doesn’t forbid it either.”
“This is a loophole, considering Sun family’s past actions, I think the emperor will stand by your side.”
The Daqi Law is not perfect, it hasn’t explicitly prohibited disowning, so how this case is going to be decided, depends on the attitude of Emperor Yongan.
Hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai blinked her eyes. So this matter could also be interpreted from this angle?
“The emperor is reasonable and understanding, he won’t be as straightforward as General Cen. Miss Qiao, you can rest assured.”
“What about Mr. Cen?” asked Qiao Xiaomai.
“He has returned to Huai’an County. His visit here was mainly to inspect the military affairs of Huai’an County.” Seeing Qiao Xiaomai frown, Yang Ye quickly reassured, “Don’t worry, he can’t avoid this matter, just let him be pleased for a few more days.”
“Thank you, Your Highness,” said Qiao Xiaomai sincerely.
Yang Ye waved his hand, “He is someone I brought in, I should be the one to feel sorry.”
“I wouldn’t dare.” Qiao Xiaomai’s little face instantly revealed a look of genuine fear and apprehension.
“Enough, enough.” Yang Ye clicked his tongue.
With such a spirit, what would she dare not to do?
Everybody was saying it at the time, anyone would do the same, ‘anyone’ was inclusive of even his emperor father.
Had these words been uttered by anyone else, he would definitely have been furious. But because it was Qiao Xiaomai…
The situation at the time was self evident, well, let’s just forget it.
“I will send some medicinal materials for you to recuperate. Just wait for news from my father.” Once he made his mind, he addressed himself as ‘me’ again.
“Thank you, Your Highness.” Qiao Xiaomai thanked him again.
Yang Ye gestured with his hand, recalling the delectable dishes at Tong Family’s table, he couldn’t help but sigh.
After such an incident, he was embarrassed to return and slowly savor the meal.
Those delicious fried field snails and loach, what a pity!
Damn Cen Hongping, this matter is not over yet!
Yang Ye gritted his teeth and looked at Qiao Xiaomai, “You take care and recuperate, Sanlang, take good care of Miss Qiao, I will go back to town first.”
This matter – he must write a detailed ten-thousand-word memorandum and present it to his emperor father!
After Yang Ye left, everyone in the room comforted Qiao Xiaomai for a while. Doctor Wu prescribed medicine, then Tong Sanlang carried Qiao Xiaomai out of Doctor Wu’s house.
Only then did Qiao Changshun hobble over.
He looked at Qiao Xiaomai’s weak face, his eyes getting moist.
He never thought that Qiao Xiaomai’s hatred and disgust for Sun’s family would reach this point, preferring to die rather than acknowledging her as her grandmother.
However, he was previously thinking of asking her to plead for Sun’s family.
He was wrong.
His previous thoughts were too naive.
He had failed his own daughter.
“Dad, I’m fine.” Seeing Qiao Changshun about to burst into tears, Qiao Xiaomai secretly rolled her eyes.
She might feel guilty and remorseful if Qiao Dami cried, but she had to comfort Qiao Changshun – a grown man?
“Changshun Uncle, Miss Qiao is fine. I’ll take her home now. You and Dami can follow at your own pace, don’t rush.” Tong Sanlang spoke.
Qiao Xiaomai needed “rest”.
“You quickly take her home.” Qiao Changshun wiped his eyes with his hand and quickly nodded.
So, Tong Sanlang carried Qiao Xiaomai and using his lightness skill went straight back to the Qiao Family house. Since he had already displayed it in front of everyone, there was no need to hide it anymore..
