Listening to the accusations about her guilt floating around the hall, Qiao Yiqing's lips raised a smile with unknown meaning.

Then she took a sip of wine, and Shi Shiran stood up and looked at the Minister of Industry: "Master Mu, your daughter chooses a concubine. Did I force her to do so?"

Master Mu was stunned by her question and shook his head honestly: "No."

"Very good, since I didn't force her, then she voluntarily participated in the concubine selection and voluntarily accepted the test of concubine selection. I also set up the test rules based on the principle of fairness and justice, without any favoritism, let alone any blow.

Revenge."

"As for you saying that your daughter was almost burned to death by me, that is even more nonsense. Everyone in the palace knew that I was in their bedroom at that time and could not leave the door or take a step forward. How could you talk about killing someone? Your Majesty, tell me

Really?" Qiao Yiqing raised her eyebrows and looked at the emperor who was sitting upright.

The emperor stiffened when she asked him, and his expression suddenly became unnatural.

Seeing her sharp and profound gaze, the emperor coughed awkwardly: "As far as I know, what Princess Rong said is true."

Qiao Yiqing saw the emperor nodding before continuing: "Master Mu, today you framed me so falsely that you should be guilty. However, I am tolerant and magnanimous and decided to forgive you. However, your act of repaying kindness with enmity made me a little angry."

Master Mu was inexplicably accused of repaying kindness with hatred. He was shocked and quickly retorted: "What nonsense are you talking about? When did I repay kindness with hatred?"

"Hmph, I kindly rescued your daughter from the kitchen, but you actually framed me as a murderer and mistook your benefactor for your enemy. Isn't this repaying kindness with enmity?"

Qiao Yiqing had a cold face, and her tone was sonorous, powerful, and confident. The powerful momentum oppressed Master Mu and made him speechless for a long time.

"And you, Mrs. Yun. Your daughter Yun Ruxuan also volunteered to participate in the concubine selection. When she was undergoing the test, she and Mu Yuhan were inseparable. She didn't even have the chance to see my shadow. You should be suspicious if you want.

If you suspect Mu Yuhan, why do you want to frame me? Or do you have a strong opinion against me?"

Qiao Yiqing asked back, leaving the aggressive Yun Taifu speechless.

"As for you, General Li. I respect you as a hero who serves the country, so I don't want to mention the good things your daughter has done. Today you have forced me to say it."

"Your daughter spread my and the prince's favorite clothes on the ground, trampled on them and watered them at will. Isn't this contempt for the imperial power? What's even more disgusting is that she even tore my clothes in revenge for me. Is such a jealous woman such a jealous woman?

Did General Li personally discipline him? He got away with it and actually put the blame on me. It is true that like a daughter, like a father."

General Li was a rough man, and it was useless to be accused like this by the sharp-tongued Qiao Yiqing.

"And you two, Mr. Liu and Mr. Shu. What do you mean, I pulled your daughter's hair? I beat your daughter. Everyone can see it clearly. It was clearly Liu Xishan and Shu Xiaolan who had a quarrel and they were fighting.

It's better now that we are together, and the blame will be placed on me." Qiao Yiqing snorted angrily.

"You're talking nonsense. My daughter said you were the one who beat her." Mr. Liu retorted angrily, insisting that it was Qiao Yiqing.

Qiao Yiqing sneered three times and turned to look at the emperor: "Your Majesty, Shengming, for the sake of the safety of these girls, you specially sent people to protect them. Now it seems that it is really good. Please bear witness to me, your Majesty."

Qiao Yiqing changed the topic and the hot potato fell into the hands of the emperor.

The emperor didn't expect that Qiao Yiqing actually knew that he had sent someone, and now that he said it, he really wanted him to testify.

At this time, in order to save his face, Qiao Yiqing beautified his motives, which made the emperor a little embarrassed.

"Ahem, I did send someone to protect me in the dark, so I am fully aware of all the situations. The facts are indeed as Qiao Yiqing said, and they are true, so——"

Before he finished speaking, Qiao Yiqing rushed to take over: "So, the ministers should pay compensation!"

Lose money?

Compensation for what?

Everyone looked confused——

Qiao Yiqing's face became a little embarrassed and asked: "What? Your daughter almost destroyed the entire palace, shouldn't you pay for it?"

Do you have to lose money?

Everyone looked at her dumbfounded——

Qiao Yiqing didn't care about their attitude, she just counted the numbers on her hands, and the calculation was not ambiguous at all.

"First, Mu Yuhan and Yun Ruxuan burned down the entire kitchen, which was a huge sum of money. Then, Li Bitong tore up the priceless clothes of me and the prince, which cost another sum of money. Finally, Liu Xishan and Shu Xiaolan

The fight in the yard destroyed the trees in the yard and made the palace a mess, which cost a lot of money."

Everyone was stunned by her words, and some were unable to turn around.

Several ministers originally wanted to frame her, but now they were plotted by her and became lambs to be slaughtered.

What's all this about?

Qiao Yiqing nodded calmly and quoted the compensation price: "I will give you a preferential price. Each of you will be compensated a hundred taels of gold."

Qiao Yiqing's calculation was so loud that both of them were stunned.

Actually everyone got a hundred taels of gold!!!

So how much does she have to earn?

Before, their daughter paid a lot of registration fees when she signed up to be a concubine, but now she actually has to lose money.

Everyone thought about marrying their daughter into the prince's palace and enjoying happiness, but they didn't expect that stealing the chicken would end up losing the rice. Not only would the daughter be covered in injuries, but she would also have to pay so much money.

Oh my God, this Princess Rong is so deceitful——

It's simply a trap for killing people.

Qiao Yiqing didn't have much patience and said loudly: "I am magnanimous and spared your life. You should be grateful."

Everyone is defeated!

This is even worse!

She has obviously taken advantage of everything, but now she has become the victim of magnanimity.

Yin Muhan, who was sitting aside with a cold face and said nothing, looked at Qiao Yiqing's sinister and cunning profile, his eyes were filled with affection, and then he added jealously: "I am not that magnanimous. It is a serious crime to frame the princess!"

The ministers were still worrying about their money. Suddenly they heard Yin Muhan speak, and they were so startled that they hurriedly raised their heads and looked at him.

What did he mean?

Yin Muhan played with the wine glass in his hand, not wanting to give him even a look.

"Father, you framed the princess, how should you deal with it?" Yin Muhan said in a cold voice, which made the ministers tremble in fright.

Princess Rong cheated people to death without repaying her life. Now Prince Rong cheats people to death and wants to pay with his life——

After the ministers were shocked, they kowtowed in fright and hurriedly confessed: "The sin of a humble minister deserves death, please forgive me for your life -"

"Spare your life?" A sneer appeared at the corner of Yin Muhan's lips, and he gave them a cold look, "Kneel down and kowtow to Princess Rong. If she forgives you, I will not embarrass you."

Hearing this, several ministers felt embarrassed and struggled internally. Finally, they gritted their teeth and gave up their self-esteem and shamelessly kowtowed to Qiao Yiqing.

"Huh, what's so great about Princess Rong? I really can't stand it any longer. Qiao Yiqing, I want to fight you!" Helian Ruoxi looked impatient and immediately started to fight.

"What's the duel?" Qiao Yiqing was as calm as ever.

"hunt!"
