After a house full of cannon fodder read my voice, the whole family went crazy.

"Yes, Mr. Qiao. It's not easy for you to get to where you are today."

"You and the prince live together day and night. They are not brothers, but more than brothers. Can this friendship be given up so easily?"

The queen had realized her gaffe and began to play the emotional card in an attempt to save the mistake just now.

The prince half-turned his body with difficulty and looked at Qiao Jingyang.

His face was pale, because the movement just now affected the wound, and his expression was slightly distorted, as if he was suppressing pain.

Even so, he still showed a smile to Qiao Jingyang.

"Jing Yang, it's just like the queen mother said just now. You and I have been getting along day and night since we were young, reading and playing together."

"The friendship we have been together for many years is beyond comparison with ordinary people."

"And now that my father has asked me to build a palace on my own, it is the time when I need someone to help me."

"If you are willing to stay, the position of guest of the crown prince and the position of Zhan Shifu belongs to you."

These remarks not only started from the "brotherhood" between the two, but also mentioned the most critical issue of core interests.

Of the two positions he mentioned, one is the attendant, and the general manager is responsible for regulating, regulating, and admonishing.

The other is in charge of the officials and political affairs of the East Palace.

They are all extremely important positions, almost as if the prince has put his life in Qiao Jingyang's hands.

As the Qiao family listened, the prince seemed to attach great importance to friendship and sincerely apologized.

But Qiao Wanshu didn't accept this trick at all.

She rolled her eyes with disdain and complained in her heart: [The Dog Emperor and his family are all such dogs! 】

[You talk about it in vain, but in fact it is just painting a pie. 】

[In the future, when the Qiao family collapses, he will be the first to draw a clear line! 】

[The doors of the East Palace are closed tightly. They say they don’t see any visitors, but in fact they are just guarding the fourth brother! 】

[He was allowed to kneel outside the door for seven days and seven nights. He fainted and died at the door before the water was ready. Then he was dragged into the prison by the imperial guards who arrived, and went to the execution ground with his brothers! 】

When Qiao Wanshu got angry, she started babbling and waving her hands and feet wildly, with a look of bitterness and hatred on her face.

It made the emperor and others look at it a few more times.

Mrs. Chen quickly tied her hands and feet in her arms and whispered a few words of control: "Shu'er, be good, this is not a place for nonsense, don't make any noise."

She wanted to kneel down and apologize again, but the emperor stopped her by raising his hand.

"That's all. It's just a doll. It doesn't know any rules. I won't blame you."

After Qiao Jingyang heard her little sister's voice, her thoughts became firm.

When the emperor looked over again, he said loudly: "The queen's advice and the prince's kindness are all showing his love for me."

"It's just that I left home when I was young and rarely spent time with my parents and family. I really feel indebted."

"Now that I have a little sister, my grandfather has also temporarily returned from the border to report on his work. I think this opportunity is rare and I should spend more time with my family."

"I am still young. After a period of time, if I am not abandoned, I will serve your Majesty and the Crown Prince again."

Then, he knocked his head down again and refused to get up for a long time.

The emperor's eyes flashed, inexplicably dark, and he stared at Qiao Jingyang for a long time before looking at Qiao Zhongtian again.

"Qiao Aiqing, what do you think about this?"

Qiao Zhongtian saluted and said: "Your Majesty, my family is favored by your Majesty and enjoys all honors in the court and the capital. I and several sons are also officials in the court, and their official positions are not low."

"In addition, I am from the gentry clan, and my in-laws are also members of the gentry clan. This time, the oil is boiling in the fire, and the flowers are blooming."

"If Jing Yang continues to hold such an important position beside the prince, I really don't know how to repay this honor and favor."

"Your Majesty, since Quanzi wants to go, I hope your Majesty can grant it."

"In the future, he will be more mature and stable, and he will be able to take on this important task, and will not hinder His Highness the Crown Prince again. It will not be too late to make a decision then."

The emperor's heart sank when he heard this.

Qiao Zhongtian is quite sober about the current situation of the Qiao family.

He was full of wit inside and outside his words, but it was clear that he also had some resentment.

His eyes swept over the queen and the prince, and his expression became a little sinister.

The Qiao family really made him very afraid.

But now the Qiao family is still useful to him, and it is of great use.

If the Qiao family is alerted and everyone retreats, then what excuse will he use to uproot this noble family that has an excellent reputation in this dynasty and is vaguely superior to the royal family?

While the emperor was meditating, the queen and the prince were also beating drums in their hearts.

Especially the prince, although he has the intention of guarding against the Qiao family.

But now it seems that the best way is to win over the Qiao family and make them use themselves.

If it's really not good, it's not too late to discard it after using it to stabilize his position.

But now, this plan was completely disrupted by the mother's impulse.

He was very upset, but he couldn't think of any better way.

We can only wait until later to find time to have a good talk with Qiao Jingyang and repair the relationship between them.

"Qiao Aiqing, let's put it down for now. I see that you are all tired of waiting for the prince to wake up."

"Why don't you go back and have a good rest today? We can discuss this later, okay?"

The emperor finally spoke again, and what he said seemed to be a delaying strategy.

Qiao Zhongtian bowed and saluted, while Qiao Jingyang couldn't even kneel down.

Apparently he was determined to resign.

The emperor had no choice but to sigh: "That's all, I'll follow you."

After the Qiao family thanked them, the emperor chatted a few more words and let them out of the palace.

When they walked out of the gate of the East Palace, everyone saw Liu Zhan being pushed down outside the palace gate and being tortured with a stick.

Seeing that he was beaten to pieces, Qiao Wanshu clapped her hands repeatedly.

[This is what we call evil retribution, and the way of heaven is reincarnation! 】

[It’s not enough to harm the Qiao family, but you also want to usurp the throne? 】

【Be careful not to die! 】

Qiao Zhongtian and others listened silently, and felt that Liu Zhan was always in trouble with the Qiao family. He had obviously thought about it early on. Since he was planning to usurp the throne, he naturally wanted to destroy the Qiao family as an important minister first.

The two sides have long been in an incompatible position.

When Qiao Zhongtian passed Liu Zhan, he stopped and took a deep look at him.

"Liu Shaoqing, you can take care of yourself from now on."

After saying that, he took Qiao's family and left.

No one saw that Liu Zhan's eyes, which were always lowered, concealed murderous intent and resentment.

On the other side, Fang Yan'er was kneeling in the courtyard of an abandoned cold palace.

In front of her was an incense table with a statue of Guanyin on it.

She thought that the stern-faced old lady was standing not far away, looking at her coldly and urging her unhurriedly.

"Kneel down and worship me properly, don't be negligent!"

Suddenly there was a cry of surprise behind her.

A very young palace maid pointed at Fang Yan'er's body and was speechless for a long time.

"What's going on? What's your name?"

The old lady scolded.

"She...she's bleeding!"

As soon as the palace maid finished speaking, she saw Fang Yan'er looking in pain, swaying and falling down.
