The Lady's Code for Raising Her Husband

"Princess Yingchuan, what is your attitude?!" Shen Yannian looked angry.

The group of officials surrounding him all admonished the emperor on the spot.

"Your Majesty, she should be deprived of her title and demoted to a commoner. Let's see if she dares to be so arrogant in the future!"

"Her title as Princess Yingchuan will naturally be lost when Prince Yingchuan is demoted. Therefore, for people like her, just depriving her of the title is useless. She must be severely punished!"

"The reason why she is so bold is because after she was deprived of the title of Princess, she also had the title of Mrs. Ning Hui! If the Emperor also strips her of this title, let's see if she still dares to do this!"

This group of officials is noisy, no different from the aunts grabbing vegetables at the wet market. Ye Yuxiao didn't reply or fight back. She held Wu Yunzhu's child in front of them without saying a word, and spent half a second to lift the clothes off the child's back.

A brown birthmark with irregular edges immediately appeared in front of everyone.

The court immediately became quiet.

They all knew that Ye Yuxiao was a good quarrelmaker, but they didn't expect that she was also a doer. If there weren't so many of them, she would have rushed to Dou Shuge and taken off his clothes, right?

Ye Yuxiao hugged the child and urged the emperor: "Your Majesty, please move quickly. The child is still young, so don't let her freeze."

She made no mention of the objections of this group of officials, as if they did not exist.

The emperor suddenly had a feeling that he needed a calm and composed courtier like Ye Yuxiao in his court. It would be great if she was a man.

The prince cannot be supported and the court officials are in a mess. After his death, where will this country go? The emperor was depressed for a while, and then he said to Dou Shuge: "Dou Aiqing, it's just a matter of taking off your clothes. There is a brazier in this room and it's not cold. You should take off your clothes quickly."

Dou Shuge's face was full of disbelief: "Your Majesty, do you want me to undress in front of Princess Yingchuan, Wu Yunzhu, and so many colleagues? If this matter is spread, where will my face be? It's better to die to prove my innocence."

As he spoke, he actually walked up to the pillar and bumped into it. If a courtier hadn't caught him in time, blood would have been splattered on the spot.

The courtiers all accused Ye Yuxiao of going too far and forcing a high-ranking official of the imperial court to be like this.

Ye Yuxiao took a few steps forward and stood next to the emperor's case to prevent them from making a move and injuring her. After ensuring her own safety, she said leisurely: "The Emperor asked Lord Dou to take off his clothes, but Lord Dou forced him to die. You dare not even listen to the Emperor's words. Your courage is much greater than mine."

It is not unusual for a minister to die for remonstrance, but after Ye Yuxiao said this, the emperor immediately had an idea in his mind: "Dou Shuge, I just asked you to take off a few clothes, and you dare to resist the order, then what if I let you take off a few clothes?" If you go to guard the border, aren't you going to rebel?"

With the label of rebellion put down, Dou Shuge's expression suddenly changed and he quickly said he didn't dare.

The emperor didn't talk much, he just kept a calm face and said nothing.

The courtiers who had been in such a mess just now finally became silent and did not dare to make any more noise.

Dou Shuge gritted his teeth and boldly made his final request: "Your Majesty, can I have someone move a screen and change it behind the screen?"

Shen Yannian immediately reacted and said: "Your Majesty, please ask Mr. Dou to undress behind the screen, and then you will appoint two trustworthy courtiers to check Mr. Dou's birthmark. This will not only satisfy Princess Yingchuan's request, but also preserve her safety." Mr. Dou’s face.”

Oh, it sounds so nice, the emperor can choose anyone at will. Who doesn't know that they are all in the same group, and no matter who checks Dou Shuge's birthmark, they may be falsifying it. But Ye Yuxiao looked on coldly and said nothing.

After pondering for a moment, the emperor agreed to Shen Yannian's proposal.

The screen was quickly moved in, and the emperor assigned Shen Yannian and Jian Kunde to supervise Dou Shuge's undressing.

After a while, Shen Yannian's voice came from behind the screen: "Your Majesty, Master Dou has no birthmark at all on his back."

No birthmark? Wu Yunzhu is lying? The emperor's face darkened.

Wu Yunzhu looked confused. Could it be that Dou Shuge and Dou Geshu were really not the same person? She was a little unsure.

Ye Yuxiao snorted coldly, ran forward, and kicked open the screen.

Shen Yannian, Jian Kunde and Dou Shuge were taken aback and dodged again and again.

"Princess Yingchuan, how dare you do anything wrong in front of the Emperor?!"

"Are you planning to murder the imperial minister??"

Ye Yuxiao ignored the accusations from Shen Yannian and others and raised his hand to point at Dou Shuge: "Do you think you have checked for birthmarks? He hasn't even unbuckled his belt, right?"

The emperor looked sideways and saw that Dou Shuge's clothes were neatly dressed. Sure enough, even his belt was still tied around his waist. How could he let Shen Yannian and Jian Kunde look at his back like this?

How dare they join forces to fool him? ! They dared to deceive him when he was still here, but if he was not here, would they deceive him even more like a fool? ? The emperor was furious: "Eunuch Wei, go and take off Dou Shuge's clothes for me!"

Eunuch Wei agreed, stepped forward to apologize to Dou Shuge, and began to untie Dou Shuge's belt.

Dou Shuge and others could naturally tell whether the emperor was really angry or fake, and they did not dare to say any more nonsense.

Dou Shuge's robe was quickly taken off. He didn't know whether it was because he was too cold or because he felt guilty, but his legs were shaking non-stop.

Eunuch Wei took off his close-fitting tunic and gently pushed his shoulders to change his direction so that the emperor could see his back clearly.

On his back, the large brown birthmark was so eye-catching. Its shape, color and location were exactly the same as those on Wu Yunzhu's newborn daughter.

The emperor's eyes darkened.

Ye Yuxiao struck at the right time while the iron was hot: "Your Majesty, I was not sure whether it was Master Dou at first, but he resisted. It is obvious that there is no three hundred taels of silver here, so I dare to kick the screen."

The emperor nodded slowly: "Sure enough, there is no three hundred taels of silver here."

After he finished speaking, his eyes were like knives on Dou Shuge: "What else do you have to say?"

Dou Shuge tried hard to control his trembling legs and said: "Your Majesty, is it too hasty to conclude that I am the biological father of the child based on just a birthmark?"

The emperor looked at him with a faint smile: "Didn't Chief Shen just say that you don't have a birthmark on your back?"

Dou Shuge's face immediately turned pale.

"If you had revealed your birthmark to me from the beginning and explained the situation, I'm not sure how much I would have believed you. But you have repeatedly refused to check your birthmark, found it difficult to get it checked, and lied. This can only show that, There is something wrong in your mind." The emperor spoke very slowly, but if you listen carefully, it makes people feel that he is gnashing his teeth.

Dou Shuge's lips began to tremble now. He shivered for a long time, but he couldn't explain a word.
