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

After being called by the Queen, the little girl no longer dared to run away, and she bowed and greeted everyone in a proper manner.

Gu Jianbai saw that it was just the little girl, and his brows knitted together, "Why are you the only one here? Where is Miss Qian?"

Minister Qian reacted to Gu Jianbai's question, and even a bad premonition lingered in his heart. He even forgot that the emperor and empress were present. He rushed forward and asked fiercely, "I ask you, where is the young lady?"

The little maid lowered her head, hesitating and not daring to speak.

Seeing her like this, Minister Qian's bad premonition in his heart gradually grew stronger. This is the Marquis' Mansion. Even if that kid surnamed Chen is very capable, he shouldn't come in.

"Could something have happened to Miss Qian?" Gu Jianchu's guess immediately made everyone panic.

The Gu family began to search around the plum garden.

Xie Ci'an's cold voice suddenly rang out, "I saw the maid coming from the northwest, so I think Miss Qian should be over there."

Smart.

He was not blind, he just saw the little palace maid running towards the northwest.

Everyone followed the direction provided by Xie Ci'an, and before they got close, they saw a man and a woman hugging each other under a plum forest not far away.

Xie Ci'an did not move forward, so naturally the others did not dare to move.

[Tsk, tsk, tsk, they really look like a pair of star-crossed lovers. If they love each other so much, why do they still bother to tease others?]

The two people hugging each other under the merlin didn't notice the people coming out from not far away.

Chen Lin put his arm around Qian Yue's slender waist and whispered, "Sister Yue, I've tried everything to see you, but I still can't. Now is our last chance. Sister Yue, will you come with me? Let's leave here together and go to a place where no one can find us. Let's go to the ends of the earth and see the corners of the earth. I promise you, I will definitely let you live a life of luxury."

Qian Yue pushed Chen Lin away, her pair of affectionate eyes stained with crystal tears, which made people feel distressed just by looking at them.

"Brother Lin, I can't go with you. If I go with you, what will happen to my father? What will happen to the Minister's Mansion? They will poke us in the back, and my father will not be able to hold his head up in the capital."

"And the Gu family, they will definitely not let us go. You also know that there is the Empress behind the Gu family."

"I would rather suffer myself than put you in danger."

[This is worse than having a mouthful of dung beetles. Who the hell forced you to marry my brother? Is it because my brother can't find a partner, or is there no women in the capital that he has to be with a piece of shit like you?]

Qian Yue is truly a double-crosser. On one hand, she can't bear to give up the splendor and wealth of the capital, while on the other hand, she's still thinking about Chen Lin. This crazy woman should just disappear.

Because Qian Yue had her back to them, they initially thought that she was the servant in their house who didn't know the rules. But after hearing the conversation between the two, they had nothing else to understand.

The faces of the Gu family members had become extremely cold, especially Gu Jianbai, whose fists were curled into a ball under his sleeves.

Minister Qian's expression was not much better, it could even be said to be darker, but because Xie Ci'an was here, he did not dare to step forward.

After much difficulty, they tricked the Gu family back from the border. Once the marriage was completed, it was a done deal. But who would have thought that the damned one would sneak into the Marquis' Mansion? The worst thing was that the Emperor, Empress, and the Gu family all saw it.

Not only will this marriage be cancelled, but he might not be able to stay in the capital anymore.

Chen Lin rushed forward and grabbed Qian Yue's hand tightly. "Sister Yue, I know you are worried about me, but I am not afraid of these. Even if the Gu family is powerful, even if they have a queen, they can't cover the sky with one hand. You don't like Gu Jianbai, so the Gu family can't force you to marry them."

[Fool, can't you see that he doesn't want to go with you at all? He's still thinking about the position of the Crown Prince's wife.]

Qian Yue just felt a little headache.

Thinking that they were still in the Marquis' Mansion and couldn't let the Gu family find out about their affairs, she had to get rid of this cousin quickly. "I am willing to marry Gu Jianbai. I really can't let my father continue to worry about him. And even if I marry Gu Jianbai, it will definitely not affect our relationship. Gu Jianbai is in Liaodong all day, and we can meet privately. It's much better than wandering around the world and being hunted all day long."

Seeing the Emperor and Empress were both angry again, Xu Shi, who had been trying to hold back, could no longer hold back after hearing Qian Yue's words. "Master Qian, our son is a little older, but he is not unable to find a wife. There are many good families in the capital who have come to propose marriage. We are not forcing you to marry your daughter here. Since your daughter already has a lover, why do you have to separate them and force them to our mansion?"

Xu usually looks weak and is known for her gentleness and wisdom in public, but as long as it involves matters related to her children, Xu will definitely be tough.

Not only Xu, but even Gu Yuanqing's face turned ugly. "Sir Qian, I wanted to marry you because we are colleagues and our two families are well matched. I didn't expect you to retaliate against us like this. This person hasn't even entered our house yet, but you're already thinking about having another man outside. Are you going to let our Gu family help raise your child? You really have a good plan."

Minister Qian was still the elder after all, so even though Gu Jianbai was angry, he didn't say a word.

Minister Qian, who was being scolded, dared not say a word. After Xu and Gu Yuanqing finished scolding him, he weakly explained, "I really don't know about what happened to Marquis Gu and the others, otherwise I would never have come to your house so shamelessly."

[I don't know if you're kidding me.]

"I think you've seen the truth, and for your own future, you're sacrificing the car to save the driver."

Xie Ci'an said at this moment, "Judging from Miss Qian's tone, Minister Qian doesn't seem to be unaware of this?"

Upon hearing this, Minister Qian immediately wiped a cold sweat.

The Queen is currently in great favor. In contrast, the other concubines almost never set foot in the palace. According to the Queen's level of favor, it is just around the corner for her to give birth to a prince. By then, the Gu family's power in the court will surely be at its peak.

Minister Qian really wanted to get close to the Gu family, so he did such a crazy thing.

For the sake of his own future, he couldn't admit it now, even if he was beaten to death. "Your Majesty, I truly didn't know my daughter had an affair with my cousin. The reason I locked her up in the mansion was because her marriage to the Gu family was imminent, and I wanted her to learn more about women's crafts and needlework at home so that she could prepare some of her dowry."

Minister Qian's words were harder than diamonds, but even if he dealt with those servants, others would still have some suspicions.

Xie Ci'an's eyes fell on the little maidservant who was standing aside.

Cheng Song, who was following Xie Ci'an, immediately understood what he meant and stepped forward, "Does anyone else in the mansion know that your young lady and your cousin are having an affair?"
