Chapter 278

The emperor could not help but laugh before sighing: “Xiao Jiu, this girl really...”

He really doesn’t know whether to call her smart and resourceful at judging situations...

The emperor knew very well that this whole thing mustn’t have been planned by these siblings in advance.

Qin Zening attached great importance to the position as an imperial guard. He also said to him that he would do a good job so that when his sister gets married in the future, he could also support her. He doesn’t need to purposely break his leg just to split his family and cut off his promising future.

If he has to put it bluntly, it was Su Xiyang who wanted to compete with Qin Zening for the commander position so he did not hesitate to hurt the former and angered Qin Jiu who seized this opportunity to get what she wanted.

This girl ah is really clever.

The emperor commented to himself as his eyes sparkles and slightly smiles.

“Zezhi,” the emperor waved his hand for Royal Guard Yuan to retreat, and turned his head to ask Gu Zezhi, “What do you think?”

Gu Zezhi said with a smile, “The head of the Qin family can be separated smoothly. It’s also a good thing for the emperor.”

The emperor: “....”

The emperor looked at Gu Zezhi deeply, his cousin was really sharp and transparent when looking at people and things. He didn’t hide his idea in front of him, nor did he give a clumsy opinion just to save his face.

He really doesn’t know what Duan Wangye was thinking, he would abandon such a wise and capable legitimate son, and hold the concubine-born son in his palm instead. Not seeing that the one he thought was gem was nothing but cruel and ruthless, and could not tolerate his legal mother and younger brother.

“Indeed...” The emperor nodded as he slightly raised his jaw.

The emperor took up the teacup again and said nothing more.

As Gu Zezhi said, for him, it would be good if the Qin family separates.

As long as the family was separated, his favor to the Qin family could only be extended to Qin Zening, and there was no need to tolerate Qin Zhun in every possible way just to honor the late Marquis Qin.

Originally, the emperor thought that the separation would take a few years, at least until Old Madam Qin pass away and the separation would be a matter of course. But he didn’t expect that this girl, Qin Jiu would really take advantage of opportunities and push the boat with the current.

After Gu Zezhi left the palace, he spurred his horse directly to the Marquis’ residence.

At this time, dozens of people gathered in the loyal and righteous house of Marquis and crowded the main hall of the outer courtyard. Not only the people of the Marquis House were present, but also some elders of the Qin family came.

Qin Zhun sitting at the bottom with a livid face, above his head seems to be shrouded in a thick cloud of gloom.

When he was in court earlier, Qin Zhun was really angry and just wanted to vent his anger especially after he found that almost all the people in the capital knew that he was going to drive the eldest house away from the marquis’s residence. He even heard that someone swore that he would beat and scold Qin Zening and Qin Zeyu these years, and secretly embezzled the dowry of his elder sister-in-law as if they had seen him do it with their own eyes.

But of course, Qin Zhun could not put down his dignity to argue with the common people. At that time, he did not know how to end the argument and did not expect that as soon as they came back to their residence, Qin Jiu asked her maidservants to pack up and kept saying loudly that her second uncle was driving them away so they couldn’t be too brazenly refused on leaving.

Qin Zhun who heard this couldn’t just suddenly stop her.

But he was desperate, and what made him even more desperate was that within an hour, the head of the Qin clan and some elders had rushed over the moment they arrive saying that they heard Qin Zhun was going to drive away the orphans of the eldest house.

The head and the clan elders were Qin Zhun’s elders and each of them admonished Qin Zhun, saying that as an uncle he should have a loving heart for his nephews and niece, how could he be so narrow-minded, and so on.

Qin Zhun, of course, tried to defend himself but no matter what he said others felt that he was only making excuses.
