Traveling through books to ancient times, I provoke the love of villains and powerful ministers

Gu Yu and Qi Qingxi followed Li De's whole body, and walked to the door of the imperial study room without knowing it.

Qi Qingxi suddenly felt a hand reaching out to hold her hand tightly.

Gu Yu's voice also rang in her ears at the same time: "The emperor is a very kind person."

"Huh?" Qi Qingxi was puzzled.

Gu Yu smiled lightly: "It's nothing."

He thought that Qi Qingxi was silent for a while because she was worried about seeing the emperor, so he comforted her, it seems that he guessed wrong.

But Gu Yu still repeated his own words: "The emperor is a very kind person."

As soon as Gu Yu finished speaking, the sound of porcelain pieces falling and a thick and majestic voice came from the imperial study room, which was also mixed with some anger.

"Well, you Pei Ming, you dare to run in front of me and talk nonsense on the first day of the new year. You are really not afraid that I will punish your nine clans."

Qi Qingxi was startled by this voice, put her hand on her chest and took a deep breath, pinched Gu Yu's palm: "It's really... kind."

Gu Yu was slightly taken aback. Pei Ming was the censor of the capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and his immediate superior. He was loyal, brave, upright, upright, and impatient to wait.

It seems that he couldn't wait to come to the emperor when he encountered something, which made the emperor unhappy and was scolded.

The emperor is not a faint tyrant, so naturally he will not punish Mr. Pei and punish Mr. Pei's nine clans.And even if Mr. Pei is to be punished, according to Mr. Pei's temperament, he will not have any fear.

It's just that I don't know why I have to rush into the palace to ask the emperor to deal with it on the first day of the new year.

Li Dequan slightly bent his waist and talked to the two: "Master Gu, Miss Qi, you two wait a moment, the old slave will go in and report."

Li Dequan pushed the door of the imperial study, just enough for him to pass through.

Through the gap, Qi Qingxi saw a man in a crimson embroidered golden pheasant official uniform kneeling on the ground with his back straight. He presumably this was the adult who made Emperor Qitai furious and even wanted to kill his nine clans.

After Li Dequan entered the hall, he closed the door gently, walked quickly to Emperor Qitai and whispered: "Your Majesty, the two of you are already waiting in front of the door."

Emperor Qitai gave a soft "um" and said nothing, obviously he hadn't calmed down from the anger just now.

Li Dequan immediately poured a cup of warm tea and handed it to Emperor Qitai. Emperor Qitai took a few sips of the tea, looked at Pei Ming who was kneeling on the ground, and put down the teacup in his hand heavily.

"Let them come in, and take a look at Mr. Pei's loyal and brave appearance, especially Gu Zicong, so that he can learn a lot."

"Yes."

Li Dequan stepped back from Emperor Qitai and walked quickly to the door, opened the door of the imperial study room wide, and bent slightly to Gu Yu who were waiting in front of the door: "Your Majesty, please enter the palace."

Gu Yu looked at Qi Qingxi and gave her a gentle smile: "Don't be nervous, I'm here."

Qi Qingxi nodded and smiled at Gu Yu.

Gu Yu let go of Qi Qingxi's hand, and could no longer hold hands in the imperial study.

Entering the imperial study room, Gu Yu nodded to Pei Ming who was kneeling on the ground, Pei Ming also nodded slightly at him, and the two of them had greeted him.

Gu Yu and Qi Qingxi knelt down to salute Emperor Qitai again.

"Okay, get up." Emperor Qitai said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The voices of three people sounded at the same time.

Emperor Qitai looked at Pei Ming sharply: "When did I say you can get up too?"

Pei Ming smiled and raised his hands to Emperor Qitai: "Your Majesty never said that I can't get up, so I hesitated for a long time between getting up and not getting up, and finally decided to get up according to His Majesty's order."

Qi Qingxi was amused by Pei Ming's sophistry, she bent her mouth, this lord is quite interesting.

"You..." Emperor Qitai pointed at Pei Ming, "Say what you said just now in front of Zi Cong."

Is this to discuss government affairs?

Qi Qingxi felt that it was inconvenient for her to stay in the hall and listen, but she couldn't go out without the emperor's order.

At this moment, Gu Yu gave her a comforting look, and Qi Qingxi understood that it was okay to tell her to stay.

"Yes."

Pei Ming bowed respectfully again, and then began to repeat the words that angered Emperor Qitai just now: "I think that the case of Marquis Ningguo Shen Xing's embezzlement of military pay should be sent to the Ministry of Criminal Justice for trial as soon as possible."

Emperor Qitai snorted coldly: "What else? There is another sentence, why don't you say that I am a faint king?"

Pei Ming cupped his hands and said, "I dare not."

Emperor Qitai glared at Pei Ming, then looked at Gu Yu: "Gu Yu, what do you think?"

Gu Yu stepped forward and raised his hands and said: "Going back to the emperor, I also think that this matter should not be delayed. I should send someone to investigate as soon as possible, so that I can return Ning Guohou's innocence as soon as possible."

Emperor Qitai sat slightly sideways on the dragon chair, and tapped his fingers on the desk: "Oh? Zi Cong thinks that Marquis Shen was wronged?"

"Yes." Gu Yu replied loudly.

Qi Qingxi couldn't help looking sideways at Gu Yu, this neither humble nor overbearing look was extremely charming, Gu Yu happened to be looking at her, and the two smiled at each other.

Naturally, the two of them could not escape the eyes of Emperor Qitai when they made these small actions under the eyes of Emperor Qitai.

This girl is good-looking, and standing with Zi Cong, she looks like a beautiful woman.

It's just that there are a lot of beautiful girls, and this alone is probably not good enough for Zi Cong.

"Are you the girl from Li Wenkang's family?" Emperor Qitai's voice sounded in the hall.

Qi Qingxi immediately withdrew the smile on his face, and said seriously: "Yes."

"Gu Yu said that Marquis Shen was wronged, do you think Marquis Shen was wronged?" Emperor Qitai leaned on the dragon chair and looked at Qi Qingxi with interest.

Suddenly being named, Qi Qingxi didn't panic at all, she knew that Emperor Qitai liked people with true temperament, so as long as she told the truth, Emperor Qitai would not do anything to her.

Qi Qingxi knelt on the ground and saluted: "Returning to the emperor, speaking of selfishness, the daughters of the people really think that Marquis Shen is wronged."

"Yes." Emperor Qitai nodded and said, "Marquis Shen is Gu Yu's uncle, and now you are Gu Yu's fiancée. There is nothing wrong with having such selfishness."

"No, Your Majesty." Qi Qingxi quickly waved his hands, "It's not because of the relationship between Minnen and Master Gu that she favors Marquis Shen."

It's not because of this, what selfishness can there be, Emperor Qitai became interested: "Oh? Why is that?"

"Back to the emperor, Minnv just thinks that Marquis Shen doesn't need to do such things. As far as Minnv knows, Shen Hou has been on the battlefield many times, and he has been the coach of many times. He has never had any corruption before. Is it just this time that I have been greedy for military pay? This is one. Second, there is another point that the women of the people feel is extremely unreasonable."

"Go ahead." Emperor Qitai said.

"As we all know, the Marquis Shen and his wife, including the eldest son, are not pleasure-seeking people, and even if a few of the Hou's family spend money lavishly, they can rely on the property accumulation of several generations of the Hou's family. , but it will definitely not shorten the expenses of the Hou Mansion. Therefore, there is really no need for Shen Hou to embezzle the military salary at the risk of ruin."
