The Regent's Koi Princess
Chapter 231 I am wronged
After hearing what Jia Deshui said, Zhao Zhoucheng was stunned and stood there motionless.
He frowned and looked at Jia Deshui, his face blank.
"Eunuch, are you mistaken? I have always been conscientious and diligent in my duties and loyal to the emperor. How can I be accused of treason?"
Jia Deshui looked down at him and sneered: "If you haven't done it, then there's no need to worry. The emperor's order is very clear, and we are just following orders.
If the final investigation results show that Lord Zhao is innocent, the emperor will definitely give you justice."
Jia Deshui looked at the imperial guards and shouted angrily, "Why are you still standing there? The emperor has given the order, take the people away quickly."
"Yes"
The imperial guards took the order and walked towards Zhao Zhoucheng, then held him up on the left and right: "Sir Zhao, I'm sorry."
After saying that, he carried Zhao Zhoucheng and started to walk away. Jia Deshui raised his chin and looked at the housekeeper with contempt, snorted, shook his head, and quickly followed.

Corner of the study
Mrs. Zhao Zheng watched all this happen with an expressionless face, neither extremely happy nor extremely sad, and she neither asked questions nor tried to stop it.
He just watched coldly, with no expression on his face, as if he was looking at a stranger.
The nanny beside her looked at her with some worry. After all, he was the man she had been sleeping with for more than twenty years. How could she remain calm when she saw him being taken away?
I'm afraid I'm really sad, but I just don't want to show it in front of them.
She stepped forward to support Zheng and consoled her, saying, "Madam, don't worry too much. The emperor has the final say on the master's affairs. He would never arrest someone for no reason.
Besides, don’t we still have the eldest son?
We can send a pigeon to the eldest son! If he knew that the master was captured, he would definitely find a way to save him."
Zheng looked at the nanny calmly and said, "I'm fine, nanny, there's no need to say more. It's the result of one's own actions.
Since he has chosen that path, he must take responsibility for what he has done.
The incident of Long Yunqi back then, and the fact that he instigated my eldest brother to repeatedly invade Western Zhou to challenge the emperor's authority.
Any one of these things would be enough to cost him his life.
And there is Zong'er. I don't know how much he participated in it. Since they, father and son, chose to do that, how can I, a woman, stop them?
I am just worried about Ning'er. I don't know if she is okay now. If we are destined to meet in this life, even if I can only see her from afar, I will die with my eyes closed."
"lady……"
Zheng looked up at the sky, closed her eyes, and then opened them again with a determined look: "The weather has changed and the wind has started to blow, let's go back to the room!
We’ll talk about tomorrow’s affairs tomorrow.”
After saying that, she turned and left without hesitation.
……
next day
Prime Minister's Mansion
In the main courtyard
Listening to the butler's report, Lin Mubai was extremely excited. He looked at the butler with a strange look in his eyes.
He asked tentatively, wanting to confirm again, because the news seemed a little too unreal.
"Is this serious?"
The old butler looked at him with excitement on his face.
"My Lord, it is absolutely true. The victory report has been sent to the palace. The eldest son and his men have won a great victory and captured Zheng Shanmin alive.
According to spies at the front line, the eldest son is already on his way back, and if nothing unexpected happens, he will arrive tomorrow."
"Haha! Good! Good! Good!"
Lin Mubai slapped his thigh excitedly and said "OK" three times in a row.
“As expected of my grandson, Lin Mubai, your moves are truly extraordinary.
With Yue Er's achievements this time, our Xiangfu will shine again."
This news made him so excited that his unsteady body even felt as if it had returned to youth.
His Yueer...
Really bring him honor.
"Tomorrow, I will personally go to the city gate to welcome my Yue'er. Steward, please go and find out if there are any unmarried women in the capital who are of the same age as Yue'er, with outstanding looks, gentle personalities, and prominent family backgrounds.
Bring them all to me. I will think carefully about what kind of marriage is suitable for my Yue'er.
Remember, the family background must be clean and prominent, and the woman must be both talented and beautiful. My Yue'er, ahem... deserves... ahem... deserves the best woman."
Lin Mubai was so excited that he almost couldn't breathe and choked on his own saliva.
The housekeeper stepped forward and consoled Lin Mubai along his back, "Master, don't get too excited. Didn't Imperial Doctor Sun specifically tell you? You are old now, so don't be too happy or too sad.
No matter what happens, you must keep your emotions under control.
There is one more thing I want to report to you!
Zuo Yushi Zhao Zhoucheng has been thrown into jail. It is said that he will be interrogated together with Zheng Shanmin after the eldest son returns.
As for the eldest son's marriage, you don't need to worry about it. I heard that during the battle in Nanjing, Lord Tang's precious daughter Tang Huiru has fallen in love with the eldest son.
The eldest son promised that he would personally propose marriage after returning to Beijing.
This time, the eldest son not only achieved great success, but also got a good marriage. Our Xiangfu can be said to have double happiness. In the future! With the support of the Right Censor Tang, the eldest son's career will surely be bright.
You, my lord, will also be proud of yourself for once."
"Haha! Good! That's great! My Yue'er is really becoming more and more promising.
I didn't expect to find such a good marriage for myself.
Looking around, everyone in the capital knows that Tang Baokun loves his daughter dearly!
If Yue Er marries Miss Tang, it will be like adding wings to a tiger and soaring to the sky. "
……
After listening to the conversation between the two, Qi Yueran, who was outside the door, clenched his hands tightly, his nails digging into his palms without him noticing.
In recent days, she often comes to pay her respects to Lin Mubai.
Not for anything else, just to find out about Lin Qingyue's recent situation, and by the way, to use the relationship with the Prime Minister's Mansion to find a good marriage for himself.
The Yu family has fallen into decline, and her grandmother can no longer support the family, and her marriage is uncertain.
Her father gave her a month. If she couldn't find a good marriage, she would have to marry the governor as a concubine.
She didn't expect it, she just came to say hello and actually heard such great news.
Lin Qingyue actually won a great victory?
Then he will definitely be given an official title and a higher rank!
Also, he didn't expect that the daughter of Right Censor Tang Baokun would choose him.
No!
She had to ask her grandmother for help. Lin Qingyue must be hers. If she wanted to marry someone else, she would be dreaming. She would never allow any woman to marry him.
Without even bothering to greet the old lady, Qi Yueran lifted her skirt and ran towards the old lady.
She asked her grandmother for help. No matter what, she had to marry Lin Qingyue, even if...
Qi Yueran narrowed his eyes slightly, curled his lips and raised a sneer: Even if it means using some extraordinary means, I will not hesitate.
