Female-male sex: Salted fish forced to rise to prominence

"I'm still alive, let's see who dares to fight me!" Along with these words full of majesty and domineering, an invisible pressure surged in from outside the door, as if to solidify the entire space.

Although the voice sounded a little old, the power and momentum contained in it made people feel awe and even a little chilled.

Just as everyone was stunned, a figure slowly stepped into the ancestral hall. Although this person was old, his posture was still as straight as a pine tree, and his steps were steady and powerful.

He was dressed in a gorgeous purple official robe embroidered with cranes, his face stern and his eyes piercing, like an inviolable statue. This man was none other than the Prime Minister, Qin Hui, who held supreme power in the court, second only to the emperor.

Qin Hui had just returned to his mansion and had barely rested when he heard the accompanying chief steward, Qin Shun, report the various incidents at home. After some detailed questioning, Qin Hui had a clear understanding of the cause and effect of the incident.

He knew very well that his son had always been weak in character and easily deceived, so he asked his wife to choose a smart and capable wife for him.

Over the years, the daughter-in-law had always managed the affairs of the mansion properly, without any mistakes or omissions. Whether it was household chores or external social events, she was able to arrange them in an orderly manner, making the Qin family harmonious and peaceful.

I originally thought that such a peaceful and happy life would continue forever, but who would have thought that fate would be so unpredictable.

Suddenly, his daughter-in-law contracted a rare and serious illness and passed away within a few days. Qin Hui was busy with court affairs and inevitably neglected the affairs of the inner chamber. He never expected that the situation would lead to what he saw today.

Now, seeing his beloved grandson Qin Wenyan beaten all over, his heart felt like it was being cut by a knife and the pain was unbearable.

Qin Hui suppressed his inner grief and first ordered the chief steward Qin Shun with a serious face: "Hurry and invite the imperial physician Tang Hong to come and treat Wen Yan's injuries as soon as possible!" His tone was firm and decisive, and there was no room for doubt.

After receiving the order, the chief steward Qin Shun did not dare to delay and immediately turned around and left, preparing to go to the Imperial Hospital to find the imperial physician Tang Hong.

"Come here, help the second young master go back to his room to rest." As soon as the order was given, a servant came to support the young man who had already exhausted his strength and was struggling to support himself.

Qin Hui looked around the ancestral hall and didn't see even a futon. He just let his grandson kneel there like that for who knows how long.

He stared at his son Qin Qianbai with a complicated expression, his heart filled with self-blame and guilt.

Not only did he feel guilty for not being able to teach his only son well, he also felt sorry for his wife who had passed away many years ago. He felt guilty that he had not taught his son well, and that his son had no ability to distinguish right from wrong, and was played around by an orphan girl of unknown origin.

His gaze was as dark as water, coldly sweeping over the alluring woman standing beside his son. After just one glance, he refused to look at her again, as if even a second longer would taint his eyes.

Ever since his father showed up, Qin Qianbai was like an eggplant hit by frost. He wilted instantly and stood obediently aside, not daring to even make a sound.

At this moment, he no longer had any of his previous arrogance. He was just like a tiger with its sharp teeth and claws pulled out. He was not even as majestic as a dog.

He took a few steps forward timidly, bowed deeply to his father, and called out respectfully, "Dad!"

"Yeah." Qin Hui responded indifferently, without saying another word. He just stared at his son intently. His sharp eyes were like a sword, piercing Qin Qianbai's heart and making him feel scared.

After a long moment, he finally spoke again, his tone calm but revealing unquestionable authority: "I've investigated the matter thoroughly, and it's not Yan'er's fault. So, what exactly do you plan to do about this matter?"

Faced with his father's questioning, Qin Qianbai suddenly panicked and stammered, "I...I...I don't know." Whenever he saw his father, his mind would become a mess and he would completely lose the ability to think.

Qin Hui's eyes seemed to be covered by a thick haze, filled with unconcealable disappointment.

He sighed inwardly, thinking that this useless son was probably hopeless. In the future, he might have to place all his hopes on his grandchildren and carefully train them to become successful.

So, he said in a firm tone: "From now on, Wen Yan's education will be my personal responsibility. You are not allowed to interfere!"

After saying this, he paused for a moment, as if thinking about how to deal with the current situation.

After a while, he continued, "As for this Concubine Ye, she dared to act recklessly and stir up trouble in the mansion. According to common sense, she should be sold off.

"But considering she gave birth to a precious child for the Qin family, I will spare her life. I will let her return to her room and confine herself to reflect on her mistakes for three months. During this time, she is not allowed to step out of the door, and she will be punished with thirty lashes of the board!"

Upon hearing the verdict, Aunt Ye's face turned pale, filled with fear and helplessness. Thirty strokes of the cane must have been very painful.

She looked at Qin Qianbai with pleading eyes, hoping that he would stand up and plead with the master on her behalf.

However, Qin Qianbai was also in a panic at this moment. When he saw his father's eyes filled with deep disappointment, he swallowed back the words of plea that were on the tip of his tongue.

Facing Aunt Ye's pleading gaze, Qin Qianbai chose to ignore it. He lowered his head and replied softly, "Son, I will obey your command."

As soon as he finished speaking, several burly men came forward and dragged Aunt Ye away without mercy.

Along the way, Concubine Ye struggled constantly, trying to escape from the restraints, and kept shouting loudly: "Master, please save me, save me..."

However, the master whom she regarded as her life-saving straw, Qin Qianbai, was now like a timid turtle, cowering aside and not daring to show any resistance.

He stayed obediently in the ancestral hall, listening respectfully to his father's stern scolding, not even daring to breathe.

After scolding his son Qin Qianbai and sending him away, he looked at his granddaughter who looked like she was about to cry.
