Chu Wang Fei chapter 60 Needs to pay a high price for harming my family

“What are you doing?”

At this time, a middle-aged man wearing blue robe rushed over. He glared once fiercely at madam Su who was on the ground. Then, he quickly glanced at Chen wang, Jiang Mu Chen. He said in a low voice: “What matter can’t wait till we go back to the residence to discuss it? Why must you be a disgrace in front of everyone? Do you know that today’s Lao Tai Jun’s birthday? If you make Lao Tai Jun unhappy, can you bear the responsibility?”

Madam Su has been reprimanded by her own husband without reason. she felt many grievances, but she still didn’t dare to get up. She could only raise her head to look at Su Yuan. With a sad voice, she said: “Sir, is this wife’s fault? Because Yue er fell into the water, she is lying with fever in bed, but Miss Yun is persistently refusing to admit her mistake. Instead, she taught this wife a lesson. This is really difficult for this wife.”

After saying that, that madam Su seemed to be really afraid. She quickly lowered her body and didn’t speak anymore.

The minister of justice, Su Yuan frowned. That pair of eyes tainted with hostility glared at Yun Qian Meng. Then he said while frowning a little: “Miss Yun, our two families are related. I can be considered your uncle. Qian Yue is your cousin sister. Just what unpleasant things happened between you and your cousin sister that you need to push her into water? You know that women put most importance on their appearance. What motive do you have for trapping Yue er in such injustice? Did somebody instruct you? Today, if you say the name of that person behind you, uncle can assure you that this family scandal will never get out. Otherwise, servants!”

While talking, Su Yuan began to shout at the guards to take Yun Qian Meng away.

Qu Fei Qing saw that Su Yuan was so vicious and wanted to harm Yun Qian Meng, the pair of hands hidden under the sleeves turned into fists.

The madams and Misses, whom just now were speaking up for Yun Qian Meng, were aware of the use of torture by the minister of justice. They were somewhat afraid and shut their mouth. They just stood at the side to watch.
Yun Qian Meng’s gaze needed to pass through Chu Fei Yang and Jiang Mu Chen before it reached Su Yuan.

Su Yuan was dressed in a golden sapphire robe of the officials of the second rank. It made him appear really imposing.

It was just that it was because Su Yuan has been the minister of justice for a long time that his body and eyes exuded deep strong aura. Moreover, there seemed to be a lingering smell of blood from the prison on his body, making Su Yuan look scary. No wonder those madams and Misses immediately shut their mouths. Presumably, they usually didn’t hear any less of the fame of this minister of justice.

Moreover, the dialogue between madam Su and Su Yuan just now was to put the charges on Yun Qian Meng for pushing a person in water. The motive was really evident.

However, that Su Yuan could be like this in front of Jiang Mu Chen and Chu Fei Yang was presumably because there was someone more powerful than Yun Xuan Zhi behind him. Otherwise, with the relation between Su Yuan and Yun Xuan Zhi, surely he wouldn’t dare to let her be a disgrace in front of everyone. And just before Su Yuan opened his mouth to blame her, he glanced once at Chen wang. Although, it was only one glance, but it made people feel odd. Chen wang also didn’t stop Su Yuan like how he stopped madam Su. This move also made people wonder.

However, Su Yuan’s shout didn’t get any guards to come, but it made Chu Fei Yang chuckle.

Now, it seemed that he finally noticed Jiang Mu Chen and Chu Fei Yang. A bit frightened, he bowed to the two people and said respectfully: “This lower subject was rude. I didn’t pay attention and didn’t see that wangye and prime minister Chu are also here. I hope that you won’t blame me because I was worried about my daughter. As for my wife, she doesn’t know the rules and has offended you two. Asking wangye and prime minister Chu to please forgive her.”

Jiang Mu Chen was cold like always. He coldly swept his gaze over that minister of justice Su Yuan without a word. He was still standing in front of madam Su, blocking her.

Chu Fei Yang’s lips slightly lifted. The perfect arc immediately calmed many ladies and he himself didn’t care. He glanced once at Jiang Mu Chen and Su Yuan.

That pair of eyes was blacker than ink was smiling, making Su Yuan shiver a bit involuntarily. On his ear only sounded Chu Fei Yang’s light voice while asking: “Sir Su’s family teaching is really good. You don’t even see what kind of place this is and let your wife use violence. Do you know that if this gets to the emperor, what the fate of sir Su will be? Surely, this prime minister doesn’t need to remind you, sir Su as the minister of justice must’ve understood. The thousand and one punishment of the prison is really interesting.”

Su Yuan felt that the volume of Chu Fei Yang’s voice wasn’t high. His voice was moist, but why did he feel cold sweat forming on his back? In particular, Su Yuan was in the morning court together with Chu Fei Yang. Naturally, he knew Chu Fei Yang’s strategies. Normally, he was always smiling, but when on the battlefield, Chu Fei Yang was a cold-faced general. The skill of murdering a person without blinking an eye had been seen by this minister of justice. He as the minister of justice who tortured many people would also tremble at that sight.

Now, Chu Fei Yang was speaking up for Yun Qian Meng. Su Yuan needed to weight this relationship very well. Should he vent the anger for his daughter and humiliate Yun Qian Meng in public or should he give Chu Fei Yang face and let the matter go?

While thinking like that, Su Yuan’s eyes secretly looked at Jiang Mu Chen. He saw that Jiang Mu Chen didn’t have any sigh of interceding for Yun Qian Meng. His disturbed heart gradually returned to its place.

Just now Su Yuan’s back was slightly curved. He actually straightened it up without anyone noticing. With an expression more gloomy than grilled meat, he looked at Chu Fei Yang. He said: “Prime minister, this is this lower subject’s family matter. Asking prime minister to please make it easy and let this lower subject straighten the things with this niece.”

Yun Qian Meng saw that the other party was entangling himself like snake around her. She gradually became angry. The smile on her face became more brilliant. She slowly stepped forward. Those sparkling eyes revealed an unattainable wisdom and they emitted a light. But they were also as cold as the winter snow. For a time, it made Su Yuan who thought that Yun Qian Meng was easy to bully surprised.

“Thanking prime minister for your help.”

Yun Qian Meng had seen the scene of just now. Although, Chu Fei Yang’s words were slacking, but the meaning of those words was helping her.

Yun Qian Meng’s logic has always been: if I get one slap, I’ll pay them back with ten slaps. Moreover, this case was just a fight between words. There was no difficulty. Why should she be stingy? She could better be generous and let Su Yuan feel a level of fear. This was also a good thing to her.

It’s the same as Yun Qian Meng thought. Hearing her saying thanks, Su Yuan and Jiang Mu Chen frowned at the same time. But Su Yuan’s gaze was on her and Jiang Mu Chen gaze was hitting sparks with Chu Fei Yang’s gaze. It almost seemed like fireworks.

Yun Qian Meng did as if she didn’t see the subtle reaction of these people. She looked smilingly at Su Yuan and calmly said: “What sir Su just said, let this little girl be very confused. Can sir Su point a thing or two out?”

Su Yuan saw that Yun Qian Meng was still maintaining a calm expression, he was surprised. Especially when remembering about the past few days, little sister Su Qing’s letters mentioning the change in Yun Qian Meng. He only said that Su Qing wass oversensitive, but it seemed today, this Yun Qian Meng seemed to have been reincarnated. Reincarnated into a different person. Als,o seeing that today there are many people present, he was more cautious. He reminded himself that he shouldn’t become a fool in front of everyone.

While thinking like that, Su Yuan’s exuded evilness. With a face full of loving smile, he looked at Yun Qian Meng. Gently he asked: “Don’t know what niece doesn’t understand. Although, you and I didn’t see each other often, but we’re still relatives. If niece has something that you don’t understand, you can directly ask. Don’t need to be so polite.”

Yun Qian Meng saw that Su Yuan was now pretending to be friendly, she felt disgust. She calmly asked: “My mother’s home is Fu Guo Gong Fu and the marquise here is my real uncle. I don’t know since when Su clan’s sir Su has become my uncle. Can it be that you are separated from the clan, changed the ancestor’s surname and is unwilling to be a descendant of Qu family? This made little girl very puzzled. Asking sir Su to carefully explain and also let the madams and Misses present get more experience.”

After those remarks, those madams and Misses held up their hands to block their lips. It was just that those eyes, revealed their expressions. This sir Su had probably become everyone’s laughing stock.

Su Yuan didn’t think that Yun Qian Meng would let him lose so much face in public and he didn’t know that she would ridicule him in public. For a time, the smile on his face disappeared and he put on a vicious expression. The hatred in his eyes was enough to let Yun Qian Meng die eight to ten times.

However, although Su Yuan was angry, he also knows that gossip was a fearful thing. If this matter wasn’t properly handled, he feared that the censor who had nothing to do, would send a dagger to him in front of the emperor about wronging an innocent lady. By then, even if he can keep the position of the minister of justice, his reputation would be shattered.
It was just that this Yun Qian Meng in front of him was really hateful. He pointed all fingers at her just now, but she was able to save herself like that. It could be seen that if this woman isn’t removed, he was afraid that she would become a threat to his little sister Su Qing.

Thinking like that, Su Yuan’s expression turned more serious. The words coming out of his mouth were now more irritating: “Since Miss Yun doesn’t recognize the affection between you and me, then this official doesn’t need to give Miss Yun face. Just one thing, this official will not let the matter of my daughter falling into water today go.

“How will sir not let it go? Is it that you are using the torture from prison against this little girl or is it that you are going to frame this little girl? Moreover, just now, I have said everything clearly to madam Su. If you don’t have evidence, you must not casually frame people. Moreover, sir is the minister of justice. You can’t be suspicious of someone so easily. If it’s so, does sir think that the emperor will still be at ease to let sir deal with the cases? Can it be that the emperor isn’t afraid that sir will be swayed by personal connections, judge the case wrongly and arrest the wrong person? Or is it that madam Su and sir Su saw this little girl push Miss Su into the lake? Or is there a witness or evidence?”

Yun Qian Meng saw that Su Yuan became ruthless. She didn’t want to lose, she immediately began a battle of words with him.

When the war of words fell down, everyone was praising this Miss of prime minister for her eloquent tongue. They also generated a sense of disgust for Su Yuan who got his position as the minister of justice through connections.
Although, Su Yuan’s wasn’t a match for Yun Qian Meng at a battle of words, but after all, he had been the minister of justice for so many years. He was well versed in all means of interrogation. He looked at Yun Qian Meng and suddenly smiled insidiously. He asked: “What if there’s evidence and witnesses? Miss Yun pushing people into water is the same as murder. This is a severe offense. I don’t know if by that time, Miss Yun can still be so tough.”

Yun Qian Meng saw that the other apparently came prepared; she actually felt it’s very funny. She didn’t get angry. She was very calm. Suddenly, she increased her volume and said to the crowd: “Today, every madam and Miss is present, prime minister Chu is present, Chen wang is present. I ask everyone to testify for Qian Meng. I’d like to see what that evidence and witness of sir Su are that you can be so sure.”

While talking, Yun Qian Meng took a few steps forward. She didn’t need Chu Fei Yang and Jiang Mu Chen’s protection. She stood in front of Su Yuan. That pair of eyes full of cheerful determination looked straight at Su Yuan, waiting for him to come with the evidence.

How could Su Yuan be afraid of a little girl? He smiled coldly towards Yun Qian Meng. He took a flower shaped jade pendant from his sleeves. That jade was wrapped in lavender colored silk. It was obviously a pendant worn by women on their waist.

Everyone looked at Yun Qian Meng. She was dressed in purple today. For a time, everyone discussed. It seemed very unfavorable for Yun Qian Meng.
What Su Yuan wanted was this effect. Sometimes, pressing a suspect may not let the suspect confess, but the pressure of the public could defeat the physiological defense of the suspect. The suspect would then easily surrender.

But Su Yuan didn’t know that Yun Qian Meng was the head of the narcotics department in her past life. This kind of childish trick was just ridiculous in her eyes. She continued to smile at Su Yuan without speaking and let everyone point at her leisurely.

In contrary, it was Su Yuan who was stunned. He didn’t think that Yun Qian Meng would still have the gall to be so cunning and dared to use silence to deal with him. He opened his mouth to interrogate: “Miss Yun must recognize this jade pendant. It’s just that I don’t know why Miss Yun’s pendant has been tightly grabbed in the hand of my daughter. Presumably, when my daughter was pushed into water, she took it from Miss’s body.”

After that remark, the front yard roared. Those madams, Misses and gentlemen, all looked at Yun Qian Meng. They saw that the beauty wasn’t afraid.

Chen wang’s cold eyes also looked at Yun Qian Meng. Chu Fei Yang was also staring at Yun Qian Meng. His eyes were shining with curiosity. Presumably, he was looking forward to the next excuse of Yun Qian Meng.

Yun Qian Meng looked at the jade pendant that was shining under the light. She also saw Su Yuan’s well thought expression. She didn’t explain, but asked: “Where is the witness?”

Su Yuan was slightly stunned. He was puzzled about this move of Yun Qian Meng. She was just a little girl who was fooling around. Presumably, she wouldn’t shed tears before seeing a coffin. So, he fulfilled Yun Qian Meng’s curiosity. He shouted to behind him: “Miss Xing, please come out.”

Xing Jin Die who rushed out of Huan Xi yuan to repair her makeup, was now neatly dressed. She slowly walked out. At the same time, her mouth didn’t stop moving. While looking at Yun Qian Meng’s face, she has an expression of wanting to harm her (YQM).

“I can testify. It was indeed Yun Qian Meng who pushed big sister Yue into water. Madams, you’ve all been deceived by Yun Qian Meng. This woman is ruthless. She felt jealous of big sister Yue and wanted to take her life. The heart is so vicious; really let me feel chill as a woman.”

Yun Qian Meng looked at the Xing Jin Die who did more harm than good. She felt that this whole thing was a farce. She also saw that Su Yuan wouldn’t give up before getting rid of herself, so she no longer retreated. She smiled coldly at Xing Jin Die and asked: “When Miss Su fell into water, Miss Xing was no longer in Huan Xi yuan. Could it be that Miss Xing is clairvoyant that you can hear the dialogue between I and Miss Su and also can see the moment when Miss Su fell into water? I actually didn’t know that in our Xi Chu country, there is such a talent as Miss Xing. When going to war, our Xi Chu will be invincible.”

After some mock and ridicule, that little face full of make-up of Xing Jin Die broke. The whole face suddenly turned grim. She hopped while pointing at Yun Qian Meng and scolded: “Yun Qian Meng, it’s obviously your poisonous hands! Now you are shamelessly denying! This is a despicable means and you are the eldest Miss of prime minister and your mother is a Miss of Fu Guo Gong Fu! Really let people look down on your mother’s family!”

One really didn’t know if this Xing Jin Die’s head also went into the lake and was now full of water. While talking she didn’t bother with the occasion and the place. She was simply pointing at Yun Qian Meng’s face and scolding Fu Guo Gong Fu. For a time, everyone stopped their gaze from watching this spectacle. They walked back a few steps to not become a suffering fish. The moment Xing Jin Die’s words left her mouth, Su Yuan’s heart was calling bad.

Although, Su family and Fu Guo Gong Fu’s relation wasn’t very good because of their two daughters, but for many years it was a thin layer of dough. Today, because of the trouble that this Xing Jin Die caused would let the matter of the Misses fighting in the homes because of jealousy; raise again the issue between the two clans. Seeing that Emperor Yu Qian personally came to Fu Guo Gong Fu to celebrate, this Fu Guo Gong Fu must be deeply favored. This was not a place where a small Su clan could crash with.

Thinking like that, Su Yuan hid his domineering aura a little. Eyes with a touch of worry looked at Chen wang. But the other party still looked calm and cold, making it clear that he was the impervious Chen wang.

The words of Xing Jin Die stung Yun Qian Meng’s heart. That kind of sudden pain seemed to go deep into the bones. The pain was infinite.

Yun Qian Meng knew that this was the past that was left in this body. The longing for a mother’s love wass hidden deep in the heart.

Today, because of her own matter, it let the madam Yun who has already passed away, receive such great insult. It made Yun Qian Meng get really angry. The originally calm aura surrounding the whole body has been broken.

An icy and chill air went straight at Xing Jin Die. At this time, the voice of Yun Qian Meng was cold as snow. Very cold.

“Miss Xing is born from a family with etiquette. You must certainly know to respect someone else’s mother. Although, the emperor isn’t the empress dowager’s biological son, but he is polite and respectful towards the empress dowager. He is a model of a dutiful son. Miss Xing’s parents are still alive and have a good family background, but you don’t understand this principle. Is it that sir Xing isn’t strict or is it that Miss Xing is originally such a domineering person to be so disrespectful to someone who had already passed away? Moreover, everyone present is presumably aware that Miss Xing’s father is the subordinate of the minister of justice. Where is the justice? Is sir Su not afraid that people will think that sir Su borrowed the court for personal use and intent to rebel?”

Yun Qian Meng’s words were strong and fierce, but it also has a lot of grievances. Especially when talking about the deceased Qu Ruo Li, the whole body was covered in grief. For a moment the madams and Misses thought about her poor life. Immediately, eyes full of blame shot at Xing Jin Die. And the gentlemen opened their mouth to help out. Especially, Yuan Qing Zhou was the loudest while accusing minister Su.

When did Xing Jin Die saw such a scene? Everyone was wishing to devour her, scaring her that she immediately sat onto the ground. The legs and hands were a mess and she also cried.

Just now Yun Qian Meng was pushing such a big hat down his head, making Su Yuan’s face also paled. He looked at Jiang Mu Chen with pale face and quickly clarified: “Wangye, this lower subject is very loyal to Xi Chu, to the emperor. Asking wangye to see that. You must not listen to Miss Yun’s nonsense and framing of this lower subject.”

Jiang Mu Chen saw that Yun Qian Meng easily made the crowd go against Su Yuan and he also saw Yuan Qing Zhou wishing that he could rush forward and beat someone; he immediately looked at Yun Qian Meng. He stared at her back and issued a warning: “Miss Yun is a lady from a good family. You should not interfere in matters that women shouldn’t interfere with. The empress dowager is the model among women. How can Miss Yun being the biological niece of the empress dowager not know these rules?”

When Chen wang’s cold voice fell down, the chattering calmed down. But Yun Qian Meng didn’t look back. She was still standing with a straight back at the same place. It’ was just that in that pair of red eyes flashed coldness. She was about to open her mouth, but a lazy voice grabbed the turn: “This prime minister’s view is the opposite of wanye. This prime minister doesn’t think that Miss Yun is interfering with the affairs of the court. As long as they are citizens of Xi Chu, they will feel concern for their country. Can it be that wangye doesn’t wish that the citizens’ hearts are with the country? If that is so, what hope is there for such a country?”

The opinion of Chu Fei Yang made the people quietly nod their heads. Despite being attacked by Jian Mu Chen’s authority, Chu Fei Yang had withstood his attacks.

Hearing that, Jiang Mu Chen looked sideways and faced Chu Fei Yang who always kept a smile on his face. Two pairs of cold eyes touched in the sky. It felt like the sea that hit the reed. Really difficult to tell who would win.

“So, when women talk about the affairs of the state, it can be interpreted as concern?”

Jiang Mu Chen narrowed his eyes and looked at Chu Fei Yang. He felt that Chu Fei Yang’s performance today was making him angrier than that day in the hall. (when he helped YQM break off the engagement in chapter 2 or 3).
Chu Fei Yang just shrugged his shoulders. With a touch of innocence, he said: “When did wangye heard a half word about the affairs of the state from Miss Yun’s mouth? Miss Yun is only having some doubts about sir Su’s official ways. Even in everyone’s residences, the old madams will teach their children and grandchildren about loving the country. The madams will also remind their sirs to be an uncorrupt official. How come concern becomes interference in the state affairs at wanye’s?”

Jiang Mu Chen didn’t think that Chu Fei Yang would be so annoying. His originally reasonable words being rebutted by him (CFY) became pale and feeble. Now it seemed that Chu Fei Yang’s words were the right ones.

Su Yuan saw Chu Fei Yang who never bothered with anyone was actually helping Yun Qian Meng. His brows couldn’t help but knit tightly together. Looking at Xing Jin Die who was sitting on the ground and crying, he felt more disgusted.

But now they fought for a few times. If he withdrew now, wasn’t it the same as telling everyone that he framed Yun Qian Meng? In the future with what face can he still sit firmly in the position of the minister of justice? By that time, he feared that tomorrow morning in the emperor’s hands would be one more scroll criticizing himself.

Thinking like that, Su Yuan let his heart become ruthless. He raised the pendant in his hand and walked around the yard to let everyone take a good look on the pendant in his hand. After that, he stood in front of Yun Qian Meng again and demanded: “Asking Miss Yun to talk about the matter of this pendant. I think that my daughter won’t take Miss Yun’s personal thing away without reason. If Miss Yun admits now, I will let bygones be bygones. Otherwise, don’t blame this official for being heartless!”

After saying that, Su Yuan put on his authority as an official and coldly humphed at Yun Qian Meng.

Yun Qian Meng was unyieldng. She casually looked at Su Yuan, who put a personal thing of an unmarried woman into the crowd. She knew that today, Su Yuan not only wanted to charge her with pushing someone into water, but he also wanted to destroy her reputation. With such an ulterior motive in his heart, he really was the brother of Su Qing born from the same mother. They were equally vicious.

The crowd saw the happenings just now, the felt some pity for Yun Qian Meng. But seeing the evidence in Su Yuan’s hand, they looked at Yun Qian Meng with compassion.

The anger of Yun Qian Meng now turned into laughter. It was just that the smile didn’t reach the eyes. That pair of frost cold eyes looked at Su Yuan. Clearly and plainly, she said: “Is sir Su really the minister of justice? With just a mere jade pendant, you concluded that little girl is the assailant? If that is so, then little girl needs to argue very well with sir. Firstly, today is Lao Tai Jun’s birthday. People are coming and going from Fu Guo Gong Fu. Every madam and Misses are dressed very well today. If they are not careful and dropped something while walking, is very normal. Secondly, every madam and Miss saw, when Miss Su fell into water, Qian Meng immediately went to her rescue and also wanted to grab Miss Su to not let her fell into water. And while in the rush, Qian Meng also accidentally pulled off Miss Su’s belt. In contrast, in order to survive, Miss Su naturally could’ve also grabbed something that was the nearest to her which was anything on my body. This is also something that can be justified. Thirdly, sir Su as an official from the outside, naturally you can’t enter Huan Xi yuan. But you didn’t go seek the truth and considered Qian Meng as the assailant just based on rumors. This really let people’s heart get the chill. In the future, if someone from Su family is in trouble, who will still dare to reach out a helping hand? Can it be that others aren’t afraid that sir Su will falsely accuse them? Fourthly, sir Su just said that because of face, sir Su will not let this matter go public, but so many people are standing here at this time. Qian Meng tolerated again and again and didn’t want to damage Miss Su reputation, but sir Su seemed like you wanted to make this into something big. You saying one thing but doing another thing, where is the official’s reputation? Qian Meng doesn’t even need to explain this.”

Qu Fei Qing saw that Yun Qian Meng was thinking really well. Every sentence was like a dagger to the heart. For a time, she couldn’t help but raise the flag and shout in her heart for this little cousin sister. She actually forgot the fact that just now Su Yuan made her tremble.

From the beginning Su Yuan wanted to take away Yun Qian Meng to the prison and torment her. But today, not only Chen wang was here, even Chu Fei Yang didn’t move half a step. Now, not only did Yun Qian Meng point out every flaw, but now everyone also got to know about the embarrassing matter of Su Qian Yue falling into water. Su Yuan didn’t know what to do for a moment. He could only look down and reprimand his wife.

“Weren’t you following Yue er? How could you let such a thing happen to her? How are you being the mother?”

That madam Su received the hint by her own husband, her body moved:”

Master, this wife was indeed following Yue er, but at the time she fell into water, this wife was almost scared to death……”

“Was madam Su following Miss Su? Why didn’t I see you? Did madam and Misses who were present, see? Or should we ask the little maid who received the guest today to see if madam came together with Miss?”

Yun Qian Meng won’t give the other the space to breath. Since today they have fallen into her hands, even if they didn’t die, they needed to be skinned.

That madam Su was lying with her eyes open. She was afraid and lowered her head. The contempt in the eyes of the madam and Misses was enough to let her not be able to lift her head again in this lifetime.

Su Yuan saw that Yun Qian Meng was forcing people to death, his face was full of disgrace. His foot landed on madam Su’s back. He cursed: “Slut, you didn’t find out the truth and framed the innocent. How should little sister continue to live in prime minister’s residence?”

Being treated like that by her own husband, madam Su has long ago been too frightened. She knelt on the ground and begged for mercy. No matter how pitiful she was now, no one felt sympathy for her.

Yun Qian Meng saw how Su Yuan was putting on a show and also heard him mentioning Su Qing, her heart got chillier. She raised her voice and said: “Even if sir Su knows that Qian Meng has been wronged, this little girl is asking for an explanation. Madam Su didn’t separate the right from the wrong and let this little girl’s reputation be damaged. How can little girl swallow this blackened name without reason? If so, who will later want to work with father? How can father stand in the court? And where would Fu Guo Gong Fu’s face be? This little girl wants to go report it and let the emperor wash away the grievances for this little girl.”

Yuan Qian Meng had an expression full of righteousness. The eyes were full of grievances, but they were also unyielding. Even facing with such a person like Su Yuan who was covered in a strong aura, she didn’t flinch. It let all the madam and Misses whisper about all the things between the prime minister and Su clan.

And Yun Qian Meng saying one, she wouldn’t do two. She lifted her legs and walked towards the inner yard……

At this time, Yun Ruo Xue who has been silent for a long time, suddenly rushed in front of Chu Fei Yang. Her eyes stared straight at Chu Fei Yang and said clearly: “Prime minister, this little girl is willing to prove that Yun Qian Meng pushed big sister Yue into water.”

Chu Fei Yang glanced at Yun Ruo Xue. He also saw that Yun Qian Meng turned back. He smiled: “What explanation does Miss Yun have? After all, this Miss Yun is your sister. She probably wouldn’t frame her own sister because of her cousin sister.”

Yun Qian Meng heard Chu Fei Yang’s words. Although, he sometimes seemed to be helping Su Yuan and sometimes he seemed to be helping her, but every word from Chu Fei Yang was precious. It seemed like a normal question, but every word was reminding her how to rebuke.

For a time, the always calm expression of Yun Qian Meng, moved slightly. Seeing that face of Chu Fei Yang which had a too brilliant smile, she unconsciously frowned: “Prime minister couldn’t have forgotten that I and little sister have the same father, but different mothers. Also, little sister and sir Su are the ones who are really uncle and niece. Qian Meng is muddleheaded and reckless, only saying everything at any kind of occasion. Asking prime minister to release Qian Meng to let me go report.”

It seemed that Yun Qian Meng didn’t say anything, but in fact she said everything.

Who didn’t know that ugly matter of prime minister? Su Qing getting favored made every concubine in the residences become cocky. How could the main wives and these legitimate daughters not hate Su Qing?

After Yun Qian Meng’s words fell, Yun Ruo Xue felt that her front and back were burning with gazes. For a time, she couldn’t keep going.

However, she has been caught by Chu Fei Yang’s handsome face in front of her. She didn’t want to miss such a good chance.

But at this time, came a figure from the back yard. That figure rushed straight to Yun Ruo Xue and pulled her. He shouted in a low voice: “You, an unmarried daughter, how can you freely speak with a man?”

Yun Ruo Xue raised her head and saw that Yun Xuan Zhi has come. Her heart burst with joy. She was about to tell her daddy that she has set her eyes on Chu Fei Yang, but she saw that Yun Xuan Zhi’s expression was too serious. For a time, she had some fear and didn’t dare to open her mouth.

At this time, Yun Xuan Zhi’s attention was on his eldest daughter. Just now a servant came to report what happened at Huan Xi yuan. Although, he knew that Su Qing’s family was obviously making things difficult for Yun Qian Meng, but today they were standing in Fu Guo Gong Fu. At this time, the emperor and the empress were here. Did Su Yuan really want to thoroughly lose face? Such nonsense regardless of the occasion. Tomorrow, that Qin censor presumably would make things difficult for him (YXZ) again.

Yun Xuan Zhi was weighing how he should explain to Lai Tai Jun, when from the backyard came another person. The marquise of Fu Guo Gong Fu, Qu Ling Ao with a noble air, came out. When he saw the niece who he hasn’t seen in a long time, that pair of eyes smiled. He softly said: “Meng er has suffered. The emperor and the empress dowager are summoning you.”

“Did the little emperor also come? Marquise, really sorry, benwang is late!”

By this time, from Fu Guo Gong Fu’s main entrance, walked in a man of about sixty-year-old. He had a tall posture. Although he was old, but his appearance was still handsome. That pair of eyes didn’t lose to the youngster. He was dressed in a purple robe of a qinwang and he called himself ‘benwang’.  It let Yun Qian Meng be curious about his identity.

• Benwang: this king, used by the prince of first rank.
• Qinwang/ wangye/ wang: the prince of first rank

“This younger one greets wangye! Welcome wangye. This really lets Fu Guo Gong Fu be graced, how can there still be talk about being late?”

Qu Ling Ao recognized that person and immediately greeted with a sincere smile. He, being a marquise, bowed to this old man who just came.

The crowd heard Qu Ling Ao’s reminder and saw that Qu Ling Ao was really courteous to this person, they were startled. They didn’t think that today they would she the rarely seen Chu wang. They followed Qu Ling Ao and respectfully saluted: “Greetings to wangye, wangye live long for thousand, thousand, thousand years!”

Seeing everyone salute him, that Chu wang laughed. He said heartily: “Everyone doesn’t need to be so polite. This old one came today, just to ask for a cup of wine from Lao Tai Jun.”

While talking, those shining eyes of Chu wang lightly swept once over Chu Fei Yang. But aside from showing some signs of surprise when Chu wang arrived, Chu Fei Yang returned to his original expression.

“Inviting wangye to follow this young one inside. When mother sees that you’ve came to celebrate, she will certainly be very happy.”

Qu Ling Ao gave Yun Qian Meng a glance to let her follow him closely. He respectfully led Chu wang to Rui Lin yuan.

Yun Xuan Zhi saw that Lao Tai Jun’s face wass really big. Even Chu wang, who had secluded himself for decades, has come. He glared more fiercely at Su Yuan and then rushed to keep up with Qu Ling Ao.

WheChu Fei Yang saw that Chu wang went to Fu Guo Gong Fu’s inner yard, he was not at ease. So, he also rushed and followed them.

At this moment, Jiang Mu Chen couldn’t see Chu Fei Yang and Yun Qian Meng being alone with each other. He coldly swept over the disgraceful Su Yuan. Without a word, he went into the inner yard.

For a time, the two most stunning women from the men’s point of view went into the back yard. And the two most handsome men whom the ladies fancy had also gone into the back yard. They felt that it was uninteresting now. They began to whisper about the embarrassing Su couple.

“Ling brat, your Fu Guo Gong Fu is really popular, ah. It’s not lifeless like my Chu wangfu. There isn’t even a shadow of a woman there.”

• Wangfu: the residence of a wangye

All the way, the maids saw that Chu wang has so much spirit; the corners of their eyes didn’t forget to steal a glance at Chu Fei Yang who was walking behind Chu wang.

Chu Fei Yang’s eyes full of deep inquiry were on Yun Qian Meng.

When Qu Ling Ao heard that, he felt embarrassed. He didn’t know why Chu wang had come today. Seeing him so relaxed now, Qu Ling Ao didn’t know how to answer.

“Well, Chu wang is still strong. If wangfu is lifeless, you can take some beautiful women. This adds more life and also more sons.”

How could that pair of eyes of Chu wang which was hiding something, escape Chu Fei Yang’s eyes? Hearing Chu Wang talk about this matter, Chu Fei Yang rebutted him without being polite.

But Chu wang did as if he didn’t hear Chu Fei Yang’s sarcasm. The smiling eyes immediately looked at Yun Qian Meng. Seeing this little girl closely, she was more elegant and refined. The wisdom breathing from that body made Chu wang be endlessly satisfied. He pulled Qu Ling Ao who was between them and stooped beside Yun Qian Meng. He whispered: “Little girl, are you betrothed?”

Since coming to the ancient times, Yun Qian Meng hasn’t seen such a straightforward person. Although, this Chu wang had a noble identity, but he was approachable. In particular that pair of smiling eyes didn’t have any schemes in them. So, she smiled: “Answering wangye’s question, I don’t.”

Chu wangye seemed very satisfied with Yun Qian Meng’s answer. He nodded and said three times ‘good’. Then he pulled Qu Ling Ao who has been pushed aside, forward. He asked seriously: “Marquise, the door of my wangfu isn’t low, right?”

Originally, Qu Ling Ao thought that Chu wang was just casually asking, but now seeing that his eyes were really serious and earnest, his heart made a thump sound. Thinking that Chu wang has passed sixty years and Meng er just got the hairpin (15 years), his heart was calling bad. He was looking for words to refuse, but Yun Xuan Zhi voice came from behind: “Wangfu’s door, even my prime minister residence’s door is far behind. Wangye is too modest!”

Hearing that Chu wang didn’t answer. Chu Fei Yang frowned. And Chen wang was looking with complex eyes at Yun Qian Meng.

For a time, everyone went silent because of Yun Xuan Zhi’s words.

Comment:
Is ironic, how YXZ will arrive at the exact moment that YRX is in trouble and he didn’t arrive when YQM was arguing for so long. Besides, he didn’t even hesitate to give YQM away to a sixty-year-old man. How can a father be like that?
To avoid misunderstanding, Chu wang isn’t asking for himself. He is asking for CFY. In the next chapters, he’ll fight with the Lao Tai Juns for YQM and he thinks CFY is being too passive making him frustrated.
