The queen is spoiling the king and madly criticizing him for spoiling her

Hearing this, Gu Jianchu couldn't help but secretly look in the direction of Xie Qingzhi.

Xie Qingzhi's face was extremely ugly. The hand holding the golden hairpin kept tightening, and a murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

Before Xie Qingzhi could get angry, the guard who had been sent by Xia Zhi to search the women's courtyard came back with a tray in his hand. On the tray were various gold hairpins, earrings and warm jade bracelets. The guard did not recognize the eldest princess's things, so he brought all the jewelry in the house.

"I don't know if there is anything among them that belongs to the princess. Please identify it, princess." The guard placed the things on the table in front of Xie Qingzhi.

Xia Zhi came forward to take a look and said angrily, "This pair of warm jade bracelets was made for the princess by the wife of the Minister of Rites. And these earrings were lost when the princess was putting them in a box. This glazed red gold bracelet was a gift from the Jiangnan Weaving Factory."

At least half of the items on the tray were lost from the princess's mansion.

Xie Qingzhi was so angry that he smashed the teacup beside him.

The woman and the shopkeeper who was kneeling beside her immediately shrank to the side.

"Xiazhi asked Fuling to open my warehouse and check it carefully for me to see how many things were lost." Xie Qingzhi said these words almost gritting his teeth.

Xia Zhi immediately ordered someone to deliver the message.

[Xie Qingzhi's brain should be donated. This isn't just about finding a lover for herself, it's about inviting a wolf into the house.]

[You hold me in your hands, and I treat you like a storage space for gold coins. Princess, is this considered supporting two people?]

Meng Yu had no idea his actions had been exposed. After bragging to his friends, he immediately ran to the Princess's residence to wait for news. Who knew that the person who arrived wasn't the Princess, but Cheng Song?

Meng Yu saw Cheng Song bringing so many people with him, and he felt something was amiss. He turned and began to run, but before he had taken a few steps, he tripped over his own clothes and fell flat on his face. He was immediately apprehended by the Imperial City Division.

When they saw Meng Yu, he looked like he had rolled out of a quagmire. They could still vaguely see his original face, and there was a faint stench emanating from his body.

Gu Jianchu covered his nose with a silk handkerchief.

[Haha, when Meng Yu was running away, his face accidentally fell into dog shit. You can imagine the scene without watching the director.]

The other people covered their noses because of the unpleasant smell.

"What's that smell?" Zhu Xia was disgusted and ordered his men to drag him away.

Cheng Song ordered the guards to take the man away and pour two basins of cold water on him, which slightly reduced the smell so as not to dirty the Queen's place. Cheng Song also sent someone to put on a thin set of clothes for Meng Yu, and then he was brought back into the palace.

The prostrate brothel girl saw Meng Yu, and it was like she had found an oasis in the desert. She quickly jumped up and threw herself into Meng Yu's arms, "Mr. Meng, please save me. Didn't you say before that you had connections with a powerful person? Go find some connections."

Meng Yu was first arrested and then poured with several buckets of cold water. He was completely confused. When he was arrested before, he revealed his identity, but those people turned a deaf ear. As the voice of the brothel girl sounded in his ears, Meng Yu reacted and saw the eldest princess sitting next to the emperor and empress.

The eldest princess's face was cold and frosty. Beside her were the jewelry he had taken away. A bad premonition exploded in her mind. He pushed the brothel girl in his arms away and said, "Shut up."

Meng Yu strode towards Xie Qingzhi, but before he could get close, he was stopped by the guards. They punched him in the chest, and he fell to the ground. The guards then grabbed him by the back of his collar and brought him in front of the shopkeeper.

"Let me take a good look at these things. Are these the things this person pawned in your shop?"

The shopkeeper took a look and nodded repeatedly, "Princess, these are the precious gold and silver jewelry that this person pawned at my shop."

Xia Zhi kicked the brothel girl, then grabbed her hair and forced her to look up. "But this man is trying to redeem you. I advise you to think it over before you speak. If you dare to lie to the princess, I will throw you into the moat to feed the fish."

The brothel girl was beaten so hard that her whole body was burning with pain and her hair was pulled until it was numb.

The eldest princess's reputation in the capital is indeed not very good.

Seeing Meng Yu shaking his head repeatedly, the brothel girl finally chose herself. "This person redeemed me. If you don't believe me, Princess, you can send someone to check at Yihong Courtyard. The madam there and my former sisters all know about it."

Hearing the words of the brothel girl, Meng Yu collapsed to the ground.

"Princess, please listen to my explanation." Meng Yu still tried to struggle.

Xie Qingzhi grabbed the feather duster that Zhu Xia had placed in the vase, walked straight up to Meng Yu, and swung the feather duster at him. "What I hate most in my life is being deceived."

"I provide you with food, clothing and shelter, and this is how you repay me. You secretly redeem the prostitute, support your mistress under my nose, and steal my gold and silver jewelry. You even take things from my storehouse. It seems that I've given you too much face, so you forget who you are and start to take advantage of your situation." With every word Xie Qingzhi spoke, the feather duster in her hand would fall on Meng Yu.

"Princess, I know I was wrong. Please give me another chance. I promise I will never do anything to let you down." Meng Yu's eyes were swollen from being beaten, and he walked straight forward and hugged Xie Qingzhi's thighs.

Xie Qingzhi glanced over and a guard came forward to pull the man away.

"If I feed a dog, it will wag its tail at me and guard the house. But you are worse than a dog. Xia Zhi, bring him back to the mansion. I will let him know the consequences of betraying me."

Xie Qingzhi used a feather duster to pick up Meng Yu, whose face looked like a pig's head after being beaten. "Letting you die is just the easiest and cheapest thing for you."

Meng Yu was completely panicked. He struggled desperately to grab the corner of Xie Qingzhi's clothes, "Princess, I know I was wrong. I really know I was wrong. Please be magnanimous and let me go like a thing."

"When you do these things, you should have thought about the consequences of deceiving me." Xie Qingzhi kicked the man who was pulling her leg away.

Xia Zhi led his men forward and took Meng Yu away directly.

Xia Zhi then approached Xie Qingzhi and whispered, "Princess, what should we do with this brothel girl that Meng Yu redeemed?"

Although Xia Zhi's voice was not loud, the reliable woman near the brothel still heard it.

Seeing Meng Yu beaten so badly by Xie Qingzhi, and his life or death still hanging in the balance, the brothel girl panicked. She crawled to Xie Qingzhi and kowtowed repeatedly, "Princess, please spare my life. I knew nothing. I didn't know Meng Yu was your man. If I knew he was your man, I would never let him redeem me, and I would never entertain him."
