Tragic death and rebirth, I remarried the scumbag uncle on the spot
Chapter 42 I Can’t Go Back Like This
On the second day of the morning court session, the Imperial Censor brought people from the Censorate to report Xie Yunqi.
Last night, news of what Fu Yan did in Meilin Courtyard spread like wildfire, and Xie Sui also specifically contacted the Censorate. You have to know that the people in the Censorate are not there to eat and do nothing.
He had a huge quarrel with Xie Yunqi and his faction in the court.
To be precise, I was scolded so badly that I had nothing to say.
"Since ancient times, benevolence and filial piety have been prioritized. Now that Princess Ping has attempted to murder her elders, this is sheer treason and violates the fundamental principle of governing our dynasty with benevolence and filial piety. Prince Ping, as a prince, failed to intervene in time, and even after being disciplined, he remains unrepentant, a crime that is even more serious!"
"Your Majesty, please severely punish Prince Ping and his wife!"
The Chief Censor knelt down, and everyone in the Censorate followed suit and knelt down.
"Yun Qi, does Mr. Fu have anything else to say?" Xie Xu sat on a high place and pointed at two people, his expression imposing without anger.
Fu Zhaochuan stood trembling in the crowd. When his name was called, he immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I have nothing to say. I failed to teach my daughter well, and I am willing to accept the punishment."
"What about you?" Xie Xu looked at Xie Yunqi again.
Xie Yunqi understood that the situation was hopeless today, so he knelt on the ground, but he was still unwilling in his heart, "Your son knows his mistake."
"Since you admit your mistakes, you will spend the next month in seclusion in your residence reflecting on your mistakes. The affairs in Jiangnan will be temporarily handed over to others. As for Mr. Fu, considering your loyalty to the country, I will only fine you one year's salary."
After the court session ended, Xie Yunqi and Fu Zhaochuan walked out of the court with grim expressions, and other court officials stayed away from them.
Xie Yunqi returned to Prince Ping's Mansion with a gloomy face. Not only was he beaten with a stick, but he also lost his job in Jiangnan.
……
Fu Zhaochuan returned to the Fu Mansion angrily. Without even drinking a sip of tea, he went straight to the yard where Fu Yan lived. Fu Yan was leaning on the chaise longue in the sun with a leisurely look on her face, which made Fu Zhaochuan even angrier.
"Snapped--"
He was so angry that he walked over and slapped Fu Yan.
Fu Yan covered her face and looked at him in disbelief: "Dad! Why did you hit me!" She burst into tears immediately due to the pain.
She had never been beaten since she was a child, and at this moment her eyes were filled with more grievance.
"I will beat you to death, you evil girl! Now you have caused such a terrible disaster that even His Royal Highness Prince Ping and I have been implicated by you!" Fu Zhaochuan was about to slap her again, but Fu Yan immediately jumped up from the chair.
Seeing Mrs. Fu coming from a distance, he quickly hid behind her.
She covered her face and complained, "Mom! Dad hit me!"
When Mrs. Fu heard this, her expression changed. "If you have something to say, just say it nicely. Why are you hitting the child?"
"I have heard everything about the court from the servant. Your Majesty, why punish Prince Ping for a sickly person? How long does Prince Chen have left?" Madam Fu protected Fu Yan behind her.
"As a prince, Prince Ping naturally cannot allow anyone to catch him. His Majesty has always loved his younger brother, Prince Chen. No matter what he does, Prince Ping will always have to put on a show."
"Not only has this wicked girl failed to be a help to His Highness as the Princess of Ping, but now she has caused His Highness to lose his job, and His Majesty has also fined me a year's salary!"
"Do you know how important the mission in Jiangnan is? Forget it! I can't explain it to you!"
Fu Zhaochuan was so angry that he stormed out.
After Fu Zhaochuan left, Fu Yan finally realized the serious consequences of this incident. She was panicked and her hands and feet were cold as ice as she pulled Madam Fu. "Mom, I'm scared. I don't dare go back to Prince Ping's Mansion."
"Don't be afraid, mother will accompany you back personally." Mrs. Fu held her hand tightly and comforted her.
"But we can't go back like this." Mrs. Fu said, and she already had a plan in mind.
*
As soon as Xie Yunqi came back, he went to Shen Yunmiao's yard. At this time, Shen Yunmiao did not slander Fu Yan at all. She just needed to play the role of a good wife and care about Xie Yunqi at all times.
"Your Highness, the princess is back."
The servants came in one after another to report.
Xie Yunqi suddenly stood up and shouted angrily: "She dares to come back!"
Shen Yunmiao couldn't help but wonder in her heart, His Highness was angry at this time, how dare Fu Yan do this?
Since she dares to come back, there will be something interesting to watch.
Shen Yunmiao followed Xie Yunqi out of the yard. Xie Yunqi looked furious and wished he could eat Fu Yan alive to relieve his hatred.
But when he saw Fu Yan, he was speechless.
Fu Yan's originally fair face was now covered with clear slap marks on both sides of her cheeks, and her eyes were filled with tears, making her look pitiful.
"Your Highness, I have personally taught A Yan a lesson. She really went too far in this matter! That's why I brought this evil girl here to apologize. Our Fu family has no complaints about how Your Highness wants to deal with her." Fu Yan did not speak. Madam Fu stepped forward and bowed.
Now that Fu Yan has become like this, Xie Yunqi will punish Fu Yan again. Even if he doesn't give Fu Yan face, he must give face to the Fu family.
He knew that Fu Yan had never been beaten since she was a child, and this could be considered as a lesson for her. Xie Yunqi naturally would not keep holding Fu Yan.
"Since the Fu family has already taught me a lesson, I hope Yan can repent."
When Mrs. Fu heard this, she naturally understood that Xie Yunqi would not pursue the matter any further, and she quickly gave her a look.
"Your Highness, I know I was wrong." Fu Yan lowered his head and looked submissive, completely losing his usual arrogance.
"Who is this?" Mrs. Fu only then noticed Shen Yunmiao standing next to Xie Yunqi, and asked knowingly.
A hint of embarrassment flashed across Shen Yunmiao's face, and Yao Huan beside her immediately said, "Greetings, Madam Fu, this is Concubine Shen."
Mrs. Fu nodded in sudden realization when she heard this. "So it was Concubine Shen. I was shortsighted. Will Concubine Shen blame me?"
"Madam is joking."
Shen Yunmiao responded with a forced smile. Fu Yan would definitely not come up with this idea. It must be the work of this Mrs. Fu.
The Fu family first severely punished Fu Yan, and then Madam Fu personally accompanied Fu Yan to apologize, which calmed His Highness's anger towards Fu Yan.
……
Fu Yan successfully returned to Prince Ping's Mansion, and Madam Fu also followed him to the courtyard where Fu Yan lived, applying ointment to Fu Yan with her hand.
As soon as the ointment-covered finger touched her cheek, Fu Yan cried out in pain, "Mom! Be gentle..."
Mrs. Fu also looked at Fu Yan with a distressed look on her face, "Okay, okay, be gentle, Mom." If it wasn't for the purpose of calming Prince Ping's anger, she would never have resorted to such a desperate measure.
She reminded Fu Yan: "From now on, you have to be careful of Shen Shi in the palace. She is not an easy person to deal with."
Mrs. Fu knew that Shen Yunmiao was no ordinary person the first time she saw her. She had never met her before and had only heard Nanny Yang talk about her. When she saw her in person today, she realized that she was indeed no ordinary person.
Her Ah Yan is too naive, and she might fall into Shen's trap if she is not careful.
