Drunk Bamboo

The court officials dispersed one after another, and the guards took Zhang Hu and Zhao Long out of the hall.

When Imperial Physician Qi passed by Xie Yuzhu, he opened his mouth to say something, but when he saw the wound on her back, he didn't dare to speak and followed the guards to the Ministry of Justice.

Before Han Jian was taken away by the guards, he gave Xie Yuzhu a fierce look. He really couldn't understand how he could be defeated by a little woman and end up in the Ministry of Justice's prison.

Xie Yuzhu smiled calmly and nodded politely.

He took a step forward, straightened his sleeves, and kindly reminded: "The prison is not like the Han Mansion, Sir Han, you must take good care of your health."

Han Jian stopped pretending and said coldly, "Don't worry, Princess. You should pay more attention to King Feng."

Xie Yuzhu smiled again: "Your Highness is young and in good health, I am not worried."

Han Jian shook his head, not understanding Xie Yuzhu's thoughts: "I really don't understand."

Accepting the caning, beating the drum to report the incident, and sending her husband to the prison of the Ministry of Justice, which woman would dare to do this? !

"Master Zhang!" Xie Yuzhu called out to Zhang Xinghe.

"Don't worry, Princess. I will take care of the prince." Zhang Xinghe saluted and spoke first.

Zhang Xinghe is the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice. Hua Qinfeng's food, clothing, housing, transportation and personal safety are in the prison of the Ministry of Justice, so he can only rely on him.

With his words, Xie Yuzhu felt much more at ease.

"Thank you."

Finally, Xie Yuzhu looked at Hua Qinfeng: "Your Majesty..."

Hua Qinfeng probably didn't expect that he would be sent to the prison of the Ministry of Justice. He could have gone home after being caned 20 times, and the big thing would be turned into a small thing. Now he not only received the caning, but also went to prison. It must be difficult for him to understand for a while.

"I remember everything you said. Don't get angry, don't fight, eat well, and take good care of your injuries. You should do the same in the palace. Eat well, take good care of your injuries, and wait for me to come back."

Xie Yuzhu was extremely smart. She thought about the consequences of beating the drum, so she said those words before. She was willing to be flogged to get a fair chance for him. What did it matter if she went to jail for him?

There was no hesitation or accusation in his eyes. He trusted her completely.

Nodding, Xie Yuzhu replied: "Okay, I'll wait for the prince to come back."

Xie Yuzhu looked at Hua Qinfeng's departing back until he disappeared.

Eunuch Dong arranged for a maid to help her out of the palace. Today, Eunuch Dong stopped her from speaking in front of the emperor, and he was also trying to help her. In the hall, except for the father and son of the Han family of the Ministry of Works, Zhang Xinghe of the Ministry of Justice, the Prime Minister and Shangshu Ling Wang Yan, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel Wu Guanzhong, the Minister of the Central Secretariat Xun Bai, and the Minister of Rites Gao Bin, all spoke, but no one else spoke a word.

Although there were not many people who spoke, they were all powerful people.

Except for Zhang Xinghe who clearly stood on Hua Qinfeng's side, everyone else more or less just acted according to the emperor's wishes.

They were all cunning and experienced old ministers, and Xie Yuzhu could not figure them out no matter how hard he tried.

The difficulties can only be overcome one by one slowly. Let's go back home and recuperate first.

When she walked outside the golden steps, Han Xin appeared, as if he was waiting for her.

"Princess Feng is so protective of the King of Feng, but you don't know why the King of Feng met the Grand Tutor and why the Grand Tutor fainted?"

"What does Lord Xiao Han want to say? If you want to sow discord, forget it. I am busy now and need to go back home to recuperate." Xie Yuzhu was extremely reluctant to see him at this moment.

I don't want to see him anymore. Not only is he ugly, but he also looks so self-righteously smart. He's really an eyesore.

Han Xin waited for her on purpose just to sow discord between her and Hua Qinfeng.

"He went to Taohua Tower early in the morning. Taohua Tower is a famous brothel in Zhongdu City. It's been less than a month since you got married, and Prince Feng was visiting a brothel in broad daylight. He was immoral and behaved improperly, and was caught by the Grand Tutor. Is it worth it for you to be flogged for a man like him?"

Xie Yuzhu was not angry, she just smiled indifferently: "Immoral, improper behavior? Unkind, unjust, unfaithful and unfilial? You, the Han family, really know how to flatter the prince. Speaking for your father and brothers in the hall is loyalty and filial piety, and seeking a doctor for the Taifu is respecting teachers."

She looked at Han Xin who was disappointed, and said, "Is it not okay to go to a brothel in broad daylight, drink tea and listen to music? Your Majesty is upright and honest. Only people with evil thoughts would think everything is dirty. What's wrong with a brothel? If one's body is upright and his heart is pure, he can remain calm even in a brothel. If one's thoughts are filthy, he can flirt with women even in a temple. What's important is not the place, but the heart. I believe in Your Majesty."

Her eyes were firm: "For the prince, anything is worth it."

"You..." Han Xin was speechless for a moment.

"How did Lord Xiao Han know that the prince met the tutor outside Taohua Tower?" Xie Yuzhu made a bold guess.

Han Xin was stunned.

It seems that I guessed it right.

"Could it be that Master Xiao Han saw it with his own eyes when he was visiting the brothel? Master Xiao Han saw the Master faint but stood by and watched. Could it be that he wanted something to happen to the Master so that he could take the opportunity to frame the Prince? Who would have thought that the Prince would ask the Imperial Physician to save the Master, and when one plan failed, he came up with another plan, bribing the gatekeepers to frame the Prince?"

The conversation was sharp and pressing.

"Nonsense! You're talking nonsense!" Han Xin couldn't help but take a few steps back, furious and his face flushed.

"Master Xiao Han's actions are truly disloyal, unfilial, unkind, and unjust. He is a beast in human clothing." Xie Yuzhu sneered, "No, even a beast would be angry if they heard it."

"You..." Han Xin was at a loss for words.

"Your Majesty just reprimanded Lord Xiao Han for his rude words. Have you forgotten?" Xie Yuzhu didn't want to pay attention to him anymore. Her cold eyes were filled with chill, and she warned, "By the way, you should salute me."

Han Xin was stunned and bowed reluctantly.

After Xie Yuzhu left, he raised his bloodshot eyes with anger.

Several figures slowly walked out from behind a clump of tall plants not far from the golden steps.

Hua Qinming listened to the report of the situation in the Golden Steps Hall, and just heard the conversation between Han Xin and Xie Yuzhu. He also saw Hua Qinfeng and Xie Yuzhu beating the drum after being flogged. At this moment, his face was expressionless and his eyes were cold.

Xia Er chattered, "Your Highness, the Han family father and son were so proud of themselves that they boasted that they would definitely overthrow King Feng this time. They even alarmed the Imperial Concubine, but in the end, they both lost. It was really useless."

Chun Er said gently: "The Imperial Noble Consort is still waiting for you in Fu'an Palace. You don't have to worry about anything as long as she is here."

Hua Qinming just said: "I underestimated Xie Yuzhu."

This was the third time Hua Qinming met Xie Yuzhu and he was shocked by her actions.

Xia Er: "Princess Feng's disturbance has forced Han and his son into a state of disgrace, and even Prince Feng was thrown into prison. The loss outweighs the gain, and it's not that smart of hers."

Hua Qinming raised the corners of his mouth slightly: "Xie Yuzhu, I will let you know that everything is not worth it."
