Bring your aunt to eat big meat, the scumbag father's family is furious
Chapter 672: Was it your own idea, or did someone remind you?
This informant serves the Fifth Young Master. If there is any problem, it will naturally be the Fifth Young Master's fault.
The Fifth Young Master was still young, and when he saw such a scene, he was so frightened that he was speechless.
He thought he had done everything perfectly, but he didn't know what went wrong and was caught red-handed by Qiao Jian'er and the Pei family. Judging from the other party's formation, it was obvious that they were well prepared and it couldn't be a coincidence.
"Grandfather, I, I don't know what happened. It must be Lin Ji who acted on his own. He should be questioned. This has nothing to do with my grandson."
The informant did not defend himself. From the day they entered the mansion and signed the death contract, their own lives and those of their families were in the hands of their master. At this time, they had to bear the blame for their master.
If you refuse, not only will you not be able to protect yourself, but your family will also suffer.
But he knew very well that the Fifth Young Master had put down his seal, and even if he wanted to, he would be powerless to reverse the situation.
Chen Tingxin was extremely frightened and sweating profusely. It would have been fine if there was no seal, but why did he have to stamp it?
Seeing the Fifth Young Master glance at him, the informant had no choice but to bite the bullet and tell the lie he had prepared: "This has nothing to do with the Fifth Young Master. I was momentarily bewildered and deceived, thinking of delivering benefits to the enemy country for profit. I am just a nobody, with no status or background. I took advantage of the Fifth Young Master's trust in me, sneaked into the Fifth Young Master's room, stole the Fifth Young Master's seal, and stamped it on the letter, just to make the Qi Nu Kingdom trust me even more."
As he spoke, he kowtowed to the ground several times, and his forehead turned blue.
"Now that the truth has been revealed, I don't want to drag the innocent Fifth Young Master and the Qucheng Marquis's Mansion into this. Based on the favor of support, I will reveal the truth. Every word I say is true. I deserve to be cut into pieces, but the Qucheng Marquis' Mansion is innocent. I hope the emperor will see clearly."
The emperor couldn't help but sneer when listening to this sophistry. He had seen too many of these nobles resort to such tricks to survive when disaster struck.
"You mean to say that such an important item was easily stolen by you if you wanted to, and the Fifth Young Master was completely oblivious the entire time, allowing you to stir up trouble? You are so naive. Even if you and your servant are of one mind, the crime of surrendering to the enemy and treason cannot be borne by a mere servant like you."
When everyone in Qu Chengbo's mansion heard these words, they all kowtowed and wailed, some trying to distance themselves from the matter, shouting that they were wronged, and some begging for mercy.
The emperor looked at the panic of the Fifth Young Master, who was afraid that the matter would be exposed, and the shocked and confused state of the other people in Qu Chengbo's mansion, and he already had an idea in his mind.
It has been known for a long time that the fifth son of the Qucheng Marquis's Mansion is too ambitious. Last time, because of the incident of offending the reign title, the Chen family was transformed from a marquis' mansion to a marquis' mansion. The fifth son has hinted more than once at teahouses and banquets that the punishment from above is unfair and that it is an unprovoked disaster for the Chen family, which is disheartening.
This kind of thing is not uncommon. The emperor is not that stingy. He will just find an opportunity to give them a warning. If they still refuse to accept it, all the punishments have been implemented. Can the Chen family still go to heaven?
Who would have thought that this Fifth Young Master would be so resentful that he would develop evil thoughts, become close to the enemy country, and even pass on such an important formation.
The emperor's eyes were icy cold. Such behavior must not be tolerated lightly. He also wanted to let those high-ranking families who were punished and secretly complained about it to see that the imperial power is supreme and what the consequences of disobeying will be.
All the important members of the Chen family were taken away, and the other female members and servants were guarded in the yard by the imperial guards, and a seal was affixed to the gate.
The Imperial Guards were very adept at this kind of thing and acted decisively. In just a few moments, they had turned the situation around for the Chen family.
The women were sobbing softly, the men were scowling and looking hopeless, and the Chen family fell into a heavy depression and despair.
Being charged with such a crime means at least exile, and this family is completely finished.
The emperor looked at Qiao Jian'er with admiration in his eyes. "I gave the princess two days, and that very night, you delivered a result, resolving a major concern of mine. I am deeply pleased. I will remember this contribution well."
Although he did not say it explicitly, he had made a decision in his heart that as long as Qiao Jianer made another great contribution, he would make her a princess and move her to a higher level.
Whether it is one, two or three pieces depends on the actual situation.
Daze has been founded for more than a hundred years and has never had a princess of a different surname. This kind of thing will definitely shock the whole country. The more persuasive the better. The most important thing is to convince everyone.
Jianer solved countless troubles for him. Since he wanted to push her to a position, he had to be more careful.
Moreover, the princess is half an adopted daughter, so we have to be cautious.
Qiao Lian'er saw some hint of being reused in the emperor's eyes, and she also vaguely guessed in her heart that, yes, her current status could be further improved. If she could interfere in government affairs and have certain decision-making power, that would be another step forward. Of course, there would be some trouble later, and the emperor had never even thought about it. She would slowly achieve it.
Seeing that Chen Tingxin was also about to be taken away, Qiao Jianer spoke.
"Your Majesty, the Chen family is collaborating with the enemy and taking the Qiao family's formation, which has caused the Qiao family to bear suspicion. This humble servant has something to ask Master Chen Wu."
"Okay, you ask."
Two imperial guards brought Chen Tingxin to Qiao Jianer.
At this moment, Chen Tingxin was like a chicken waiting to be slaughtered. He no longer had the courage to curse the world. He lowered his head, his hair was disheveled, and he looked like a puppet without any strength at all.
"Mr. Chen Wu, was your decision to choose the Qiao family your own, or was it someone who reminded you?"
Chen Tingxin didn't expect that Qiao Jianer's question hit the nail on the head.
And she used the word "remind", obviously she was a friend who knew him very well.
Chen Tingxin immediately realized that the reason Pang You asked him to find the Qiao family must be that he had some grudge with the Qiao family. Now that the Chen family has fallen into this situation, Qiao Jianer is a major driving force behind it. How could he let her find Pang You as she wished?
It would be better to let Pang You live well. He would be grateful for his kindness. Maybe one day, he would make Qiao Jianer and the Pei family suffer a big setback.
He raised his head, shook his hair, looked at Qiao Jianer and smiled with a provocative attitude.
"Yes, that's my own idea. Your formation is exquisite, and the people of the Qilu Kingdom will definitely like it. Of course I have to get ideas from you."
"No flower lasts forever. With the Chen family in such a predicament, who knows if this isn't your future? Princess Feiluan, don't be too proud too soon."
Qiao Jian'er smiled faintly, "I won't collaborate with the enemy or betray my country. I will do my utmost to protect this land, even at the cost of my life. This is the difference between you and me."
The next morning, the news of the Chen family's accident spread throughout Lingxiao Academy.
Pang You breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that Chen Tingxin did not betray him, but he was not moved at all, because Chen Tingxin was just a dog in his eyes, a tool to achieve his goals.
"The autumn exam is coming soon, Mr. Pang. In our class, you always rank first in all the exams, big and small. You will definitely pass the exam." A student nearby said with envy.
