Chapter 1247 Entering the palace
The young master of the Qi family walked up and down anxiously.
Qi Shang squinted his eyes: "Did the Zhao family contact the Chu family before?"
"Yes." The eldest young master of the Qi family calmed down: "I remember that when the accident happened, the young lady of the eldest family of the Zhao family went to the Chu Mansion. Could it be that the two reached some kind of deal?"
"What about after that?" Qi Shang had been the Minister of the Ministry of Officials for so many years, so his mind was naturally deep.
"Afterwards, the eldest lady of the Zhao family never went out again, and the Chu family was also very quiet during that time, and even the servants did not go out unless necessary to deliver vegetables and fruits. It can be seen that the Chu family is very cautious."
Qi Shang murmured: "The Zhao family, the Chu family, Mr. Zhao, Chu Heng..."
"Boss." Qi Shang suddenly thought of something and asked, "Master Zhao Er met you some time ago?"
"That's right, dad, didn't you say that in your capacity, it's not convenient for you to make friends with all the ministers."
Qi Shang didn't answer, he felt a little uneasy.
This uneasiness lasted until the afternoon.
The second master Zhao was imprisoned, the daughters of the Zhao family almost went crazy, and the story of the old man Zhao going to the palace to beg the emperor for forgiveness was also spread.
Immediately following Qi Shang was called into the palace.
Ye Muyu didn't know the news in the backyard, but it was Zhao Qingqing who came to her and she got a clue.
"Qingqing? What's the matter?" Ye Muyu had never seen a little girl crying, so she quickly asked Sumei to bring in tea.
Zhao Qingqing didn't dare to rush towards her for fear of hurting her, so she could only helplessly say: "Sister Ye, my second uncle was sent to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and grandpa, I heard that he went to the palace to confess his crime voluntarily."
"But, what is the crime in our family?"
In recent years, the Zhao family in the capital has been supported by the second wife. Zhao Qingqing is a little girl with a simple temperament, how can she know about the affairs of the court.
Ye Muyu is not sure either. What she said at the beginning was to remind the Zhao family not to be involved in the court. It seems that the Zhao family was really involved.
"Don't worry, this may not be a bad thing." Ye Muyu comforted her softly.
"The old man is not someone who can mess around. He must have done this to protect the entire Zhao family."
Zhao Qingqing was a little confused: "Really?"
"But at home, Second Aunt and the others quarreled harshly, saying that Grandpa wanted to force them to die."
Ye Muyu reached out and touched her head: "They made trouble because of what your second uncle did, but now your Zhao family is not separated, and you take the initiative to ask the emperor to plead guilty, and you may be forgiven. , the ending may not be better."
"You have to trust the old man."
Ye Muyu asked Sumei to send Zhao Qingqing back to her residence.
There are a lot of things going on at the moment, I am afraid that the capital is very lively, whether it is to watch the excitement, or to fish in troubled waters, Zhao Qingqing is a girl's house, she is not at ease.
However, she only hoped that the affairs of the court would go smoothly.
"Ma'am, the master is back."
As soon as the voice of the maid at the door fell, Chu Heng opened the door curtain and walked in. Seeing that Ye Muyu was about to come down, he hurriedly strode over to hold her wrist.
Seeing how cautious he is, Ye Muyu smiled: "I won't break at the first touch."
"You still have the nerve to say that you have lost so much weight, and you need to make up for it in the next few days." Chu Heng has a strong attitude, but his movements are still gentle.
Ye Muyu pursed her lips and smiled.
She pulled him to sit by the window.
Then he asked: "Just now Qingqing came to see me and said that the old man went to the palace in person, do you know what happened?"
