I'm not a scumbag

Deng Zhuang was able to appear in the court unscathed to challenge Ling Tingyu, and he naturally had the support of all forces behind him.

If Deng Zhuang had not committed any serious mistake in front of the ministers, his identity and the power behind him would not allow Ling Tingyu to kill him without permission.

This is a game in the court. Ling Tingyu has been studying with the Queen since he was a child and is very familiar with such things.

This is a battle without gunpowder.

It is a war between the new emperor and the noble families.

One wrong step and you will be doomed.

If Deng Zhuang is easily touched, it will give those people an excuse, or an opportunity to take advantage of them.

For the same reason, Deng Zhuang was unwilling to accept anything and had to admit the identity of Qin Zuo's husband.

He can't leave any clues.

After retreating from the court, Ling Tingyu ordered Qin Zuo to wait outside the imperial study.

She still has some political matters to deal with.

The Yan State was different from the Chu State, at least it was different from the current Chu State.

The Emperor of Chu died suddenly, and the whole country mourned.

Common people cannot do red events within one year, but as a royal family, there is an additional filial piety, which is extended to three years.

This rule was set by Zuo Xiaoxiong himself. It was a move designed to show filial piety and gain the upper hand in public opinion at the beginning of the throne.

It was originally an excellent move. After all, if he lost, he would still have a backup plan. Although his brother was here, the possibility of losing was very slim, but he still had a backup plan.

Now that I think about it, I regret it endlessly. Who told him to be both responsible and independent?

Ling Tingyu didn't have so many tricks on his side. The queen died suddenly and the new emperor ascended the throne. He dealt with the rebels in the palace at that time with thunderous means.

But one of the three masterminds was missing, one couldn't move, and the other couldn't move, which made her very irritated.

There are too many things involved behind Deng Zhuang, so we can only take it slow.

Thinking of this, a sharp light burst out from Ling Tingyu's eyes, and she looked at the paper in her hand that persuaded Qin Zuo to punish him in disguise, with a hint of disdain at the corner of her mouth.

"Call the emperor's husband Qin Zuo to come in."

Qin Zuo, who had been dizzy since he went to court, was summoned.

The road to saving the Queen seems to be going further and further?

How come the word salvation is equated with title?

Could it be that he was motivated by sex?

No, he, Qin Zuo, is a little chick. He has always had a thief heart but no courage, not even a thief heart!

Ah Kuai peered into his host's anxious heart and said nothing.

Its presence has always been low, and it has been criticized as useless.

"What are you thinking about?"

Qin Zuo raised his eyes and met Ling Tingyu's searching eyes.

There was no wave in the cold eyes, which made Qin Zuo startled, and he didn't dare to feel any more charming in his heart.

The emperor's mentality has always been to give him a sweet date with a stick. This so-called position of emperor's husband is just compensation for himself after taking away military power.

The emperor's husband's actual power is not comparable to that of General Zuo.

What's more, without his position, he can no longer interfere in court affairs. After all, he is still a prince from a foreign country, so it is reasonable to guard against him.

Now the person who is causing the whole Yan Kingdom to turn upside down is not his good brother Zuo Xiaoyi.

When I think of this, my heart, no matter how hot it is, becomes cold.

She doesn't believe him.

Qin Zuo opened his mouth, but in the end he said nothing.

Everything goes without saying.

Ling Tingyu saw Qin Zuo's changeable expression and knew that he had gone astray, but why did she rush to explain?

Ling Tingyu, who was no longer interested in talking, signaled Qin Zuo to step back. Qin Zuo was also a little annoyed. She had been waiting outside for so long without saying anything or explaining anything. So she was asking him to step down?

Well, actually he figured out the key and was ashamed of his reverie just now.

I wanted to just walk away, but when I walked to the door of the hall, I couldn't help but say.

"I will give His Majesty an explanation regarding the plague."

The sound of "Your Majesty" stretched the distance between the two.

In the past few days, we have finally gotten a little closer together and have returned to where we were before, and even took half a step back.

Seeing that there was no response for a long time, Qin Zuo turned sideways, only to see that Ling Tingyu was still looking at the memorial carefully without paying any attention to him.

"..."

That’s it, let’s speak with facts.

Although she knew it was Zhong Qingmei who did it, there was no evidence to prove it, but she was the one who threw the blame on her.

Qin Zuo Siya, as expected, no woman is easy to mess with!

"Ah Kuai, estimate the time for Zhong Qingmei's triumphant return. How long do we have to wait?"

[Host, after calculating their journey, there are still eighteen days. 】

Ah Kuai answered honestly, knowing that Qin Zuo was angry and did not dare to cause trouble.

Qin Zuo nodded and calculated carefully.

If Zuo Xiaoyi was captured alive so easily, would he cause such a big fuss?

But Zhong Qingmei is the heroine after all, and she has the blessing of luck, so it doesn't seem to surprise him that she can do this.

I don't know why, Qin Zuo still felt a little strange in his heart, always feeling that things were fraudulent, but Ling Tingyu's behavior today made it impossible for him to communicate with him, so he had to think about these things by himself.

【Is something wrong? 】

This is the first time Ah Kuai has taken the initiative to ask questions in a long time.

Qin Zuo thought for a while, but still asked in confusion, "What's the situation over there with Zuo Xiaoxiong?"

Zuo Xiaoxiong reacted when something was wrong.

Logically speaking, Zuo Xiaoxiong is able to sit where he is today, thanks to his younger brother.

Now that the great think tank has been captured alive, they must fight to the death no matter what, so just let them return in triumph?

Or is there some disagreement between the two brothers, and Zuo Xiaoxiong will do whatever it takes to get that position?

After thinking about the stupid imperial brother, Qin Zuo felt that he could explain it.

Ah Kuai did not answer Qin Zuo's words, but started a live broadcast. The content on the screen showed Zuo Xiaoxiong who was furious.

After watching for a moment, Qin Zuo was silent.

After working on it for a long time, it’s not the case.

Zuo Xiaoxiong only found out that Zuo Xiaoyi was captured alive after Zhong Qingmei withdrew his troops. He sent all his troops to pursue the Qinglong Army, but was thwarted by Zhong Qingmei, who was not willing to fight.

Once again, tens of thousands of elites were killed or injured.

The imperial army, which had been severely weakened by the spread of the plague, could not recover for three to five years.

Zuo Xiaoxiong was helpless when he wanted to save Zuo Xiaoyi.

Qin Zuo sneered, he was indeed stupid.

It's just that I feel a little more afraid of Zhong Qingmei.

If there is no water in the matter of being captured alive, it will be even more difficult for me to clear up the slander.

Back in her small courtyard, the Queen Mother Chu had strong objections to her son being named the emperor's husband.

Qin Zuo sighed, and after patiently explaining to the cheap lady, the latter was doubtful and said nothing more, but he was not as enthusiastic as before when facing Ling Fantian.

She felt that the position of emperor's husband was simply a humiliation to the emperor. How could he, a good and wealthy man, share the same wife with an outsider? !

Seeing that the day when Zhong Qingmei returns to the court is getting closer, Ling Tingyu's liquidation in the court is coming to an end, but Qin Zuo still has no clue to prove his innocence.

Is it possible that Ling Tingyu was really stabbed in the spine with him?

When he thought of this, he almost wanted to hit him to death.

The news of Yang Mian's death in the line of duty was even more difficult for him to accept.

If Yang Mian was still there, it would be enough to prove his innocence. Unfortunately, he was walking in a hurry and did not notice that something was wrong with Yang Mian at that time.

If he had been more attentive, he wouldn't have been so passive, and maybe he could have saved Yang Mian.

Damn, the sighs I have been sighing in this period of time are almost comparable to the sighs I have been sighing in my previous life.

Just as he was thinking about this, an announcement came from outside the door, saying that a mysterious person asked to see him.

Qin Zuo raised his eyebrows with interest.

Hey, who is letting him be so mysterious? ?
