Sweet pet: The queen is delicate and soft

In the court, Gu Qing was the first to stand up and tell the emperor about the fire in his palace.

"Your Majesty, a fire suddenly broke out in Wei Chen's residence last night, causing huge losses to Wei Chen's family! I sincerely request your Majesty to order the Ministry of Punishment to investigate the matter thoroughly!"

When Gu Qing spoke, there was anger in his tone that could not be concealed.

Xiao Jue heard this and looked at Gu Qing in shock.

"What? Mr. Gu's home was burned down? You mean someone deliberately set fire to your home?"

"Back to Your Majesty, Wei Chen's home has been burned to nothing but ruins, and there were multiple fires in the house at the same time last night, which makes Wei Chen have to be suspicious!"

Now that Gu Qing recalled yesterday's scene, he still felt frightened. There was no wind yesterday, and a fire suddenly broke out in the house. Someone must have deliberately retaliated.

"Well, Chen Zhi! From today on, you will be solely responsible for investigating the fire in Mr. Gu's house! You must give me and Mr. Gu an explanation within five days!"

Xiao Jue looked at the Minister of Justice in the court and gave him a deadline for investigation.

"Yes."

Although the officials whose names were called felt that the time limit given by the emperor was too short, they did not dare to refute and could only think of trying their best to investigate the matter.

After the emperor finished handling the matter of Gu Qing, the official minister soon came forward to write a letter of impeachment.

"Your Majesty, I have written a letter to impeach Mr. Zhang Cheng!"

Zhang Cheng, whose name was called, froze when he heard that the Minister of Personnel was impeaching him, and looked at the Minister of Personnel in shock.

"Huh? What's the reason for impeaching Zhang Cheng?"

Xiao Jue looked at the Minister of Civil Affairs and asked in a flat tone, completely in a routine manner.

But what Xiao Jue was thinking about at this time was to rush back to the court to accompany the queen who was still resting.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I impeach Zhang Cheng for corruption, dereliction of duty and accepting bribes."

After Xiao Jue heard the contents of the impeachment, his eyes widened instantly and he changed his casual attitude.

As an emperor, what he cannot tolerate is the corruption of officials below him, which affects the people's livelihood and the fundamental destiny of the country.

Although Xiao Jue has now handed over most of the state affairs to the prince Xiao Mobai, he is devoted to accompanying his beloved wife. However, he still takes the issue of corruption and malfeasance very seriously.

"What evidence do you have?"

Xiao Jue glanced at Zhang Cheng, who was being impeached, and then looked at the Minister of Civil Affairs who had submitted the petition.

The Minister of Civil Affairs had already prepared the corresponding evidence, took it out of his sleeve and presented it to His Majesty.

The eunuch in charge at the side hurriedly picked it up and presented it to Xiao Jue.

The Minister of Staff watched the emperor flip through the evidence and felt confident in his heart. This evidence was given to him by Ye Zhao. He knew who Ye Zhao represented by his actions.

Moreover, he had long known that Zhang Cheng relied on his official position to allow his only son to bully the people, and he had long wanted to impeach him! However, there had been no evidence before, and his official position was lower than Zhang Cheng's, so he could only watch in silence.

But it's different now. He has the prince's instruction. Now that the prince has taken action, he will never give Zhang Cheng a chance to quibble!

Sure enough, after Xiao Jue read through the evidence, he threw the memorial directly in Zhang Cheng's face.

"You Zhang Cheng! You actually accepted so many bribes from officials in private! You even let your son bully the people! Come on! Drag him out and put him in jail!"

Faced with such irrefutable evidence, Zhang Cheng could not argue at all, and could only let the guards drag him out of the court.

Xiao Mobai sat leisurely on a wicker chair in the courtyard, listening to Ye Zhao's report to him. This is what happens when you borrow Gu Qing's carriage! He couldn't touch Gu Qing openly, so why couldn't he touch someone who was fawning over Gu Qing and wanted to be friends with him?

Xiao Mobai looked at the bedroom behind him, thinking that the little thing was still sleeping peacefully on his couch, and the eyes he looked at the bedroom were full of tenderness.

"I know, let's get down! Keep staring at Gu Qing!"

Xiao Mobai still wanted to hear about the situation in the court. In order not to wake up his baby, he had waited in the courtyard early. Now that the matter was settled, it was time for him to go back and sleep with the little thing!

He is now a contagious person to the outside world and cannot leave the palace, so he can concentrate on staying with his baby.

Xiao Mobai gently pushed open the door of the bedroom. Fortunately, the curtains on the couch blocked both light and wind. Gu Nian didn't feel anything at all and continued to sleep sweetly.

Xiao Mobai took off his coat and made sure that there was no cold outside, then he opened some curtains and went up and lay down next to Gu Nian.

Gu Nian seemed to feel that there was another person beside him, and he walked to Xiao Mobai's side with his eyes closed.

Xiao Mobai opened his arms and hugged the person in his arms.

Gu Nian felt the warmth, like a cat, rubbed against Xiao Mobai's chest a few times, and then fell asleep contentedly.

Xiao Mobai looked at the little woman in his arms and sighed lowly. The eyes he looked at Gu Nian were now full of lust, and he could clearly feel the changes in his body.

Xiao Mobai closed his eyes and kissed the top of Gu Nian's hair softly, planning to get married to this little guy as soon as possible!

He had been waiting in agony for so many years. It was okay when he was young. At that time, Gu Nianjiao was as soft as a little bun. He just looked at it with joy.

But as the two of them grew older, Xiao Mobai had reached the age where he understood everything, and Gu Nian's body also began to grow. The softness on Xiao Mobai's chest at this time could already prove this.

But this little thing trusted him completely and had no idea that he was like a little white rabbit, teasing the hungry wolf at any time!

Just like now, Xiao Mobai thinks about eating this little white rabbit that comes to his door all the time, but he also has to think about her reputation.

No matter how airtight his uterus was, the palace was still crowded with people and he was worried that if she didn't fall in love on the wedding day, there would be gossips about his baby. He didn't want her to take any of this risk.

But Xiao Mobai was reluctant to let go of the little thing in his arms, so he could only use his own perseverance to suppress the anger, and fell asleep holding Gu Nian.

Unlike the quiet room in the Crown Prince's palace, when Gu Qing just returned to the mansion, he was greeted by Mrs. Wang crying bitterly.

"Master! All my gold and silver jewelry have been burned! What should I do! Wuwu..."

With a big belly, Mrs. Wang threw herself into Gu Qing's arms, crying weakly.

Gu Qing patted Wang's back gently to express comfort.

"Don't be sad. Watch out for your belly. This is the root of our Gu family! If the jewelry is gone, it's gone. I'll just buy it for you again!"

When Wang heard Gu Qing's promise, she finally felt relieved, but in order to show her weakness, she still leaned against Gu Qing and twitched.
