Chapter 39: Punishment
The Queen Mother nodded, and not long after, the Emperor came over.
"The emperor is here~" the eunuch's sharp voice sounded.
Ye Xue immediately stood up and gave a palace ceremony, "Welcome to the Emperor, the Emperor will be blessed with Jin'an."
"Let's go flat." said the emperor.
Ye Xue looked up at the so-called emperor. She was about 40 years old. Perhaps because of her day and night, the emperor had some obvious white hair. But her face was still very good. Her handsome face did not have the vicissitudes of time, but she was more mature and steady. No wonder she heard that many women liked him.
"Mother, Queen." The emperor bowed.
"Emperor, my Yexue was bullied by the Yuwen family, what should I do?" the empress dowager said arrogantly.
The emperor was shocked when he heard this. "Didn't Yuwen Xiong say that Yuwen Yexue died in the dark forest?"
"Nonsense, I, Xiaoxue, are fine!" the Empress Dowager said angrily.
"My daughter Yuwen Yexue has seen the emperor." Yexue stepped forward and saluted again.
"Yuwen Xiong is deceiving the king! He said Ye Xue was not alive." The emperor hurriedly turned the blame when he saw the empress dowager angry.
The emperor turned his eyes and asked the people around him to call Yuwen Xiong over.
"I will make the decision for you." The emperor promised, "You have no joke."
Not long after, Yuwen Xiong came over tremblingly. However, as an old fox, Yuwen Xiong would not be honest. He had already inquired about the situation and thought of a solution.
"I am paying homage to the emperor, long live my emperor." Yuwen Xiong knelt down and bowed.
"Bold Yuwen Xiong, do you know your guilt?"
"I...I don't know." Yuwen Xiong looked confused.
"You dare to argue! Someone is here..." The emperor made a gesture to execute his sentence.
"Emperor, the emperor... I am guilty, please forgive me! I don't know that Princess Fengxue is still in the world, so I held a funeral privately. But I really don't mean it. I also hope that Princess Fengxue can be there..."
"Shut up! You are not allowed to curse Princess Fengxue in the family!" The queen mother said angrily, "And according to Yexue, it was your daughter who knocked her out."
"How is this possible? Although my daughter is a bad person, she will never do this." Yuwen Xiong said hurriedly.
"What? You said Feng Xue lied to others?" The emperor also agreed with the empress dowager.
There is no need to make the mother-son relationship break due to Yuwen Xiong’s affairs.
"Okay, then I will definitely go back and punish you well." Yuwen Xiong promised.
"Since that's the case, then the queen..."
"Emperor, letting him punish him will definitely be favoritism. Why not give an imperial edict to the Ai family?"
No, once the imperial edict is issued, Zi Qing will not be able to marry the royal family. If I don’t do this, my official position will be lost. Since this matter was caused by her, it will be up to her to solve it. Yuwen Xiong did not express his opinion if he thought so.
"Grandma Empress Dowager~ You can't punish your sister. In the future, Ye Xue will be beaten to death when she returns to the mansion." Ye Xue said aggrievedly.
"Who dares to hit you?! The Ai family will kill him!" The empress dowager expressed her opinion.
In this way, Yuwen Xiong dared not say anything. He could only watch the empress dowager issue an order to expel Yuwen Ziqing from the imperial capital and never return.
"Mother, this..."
"Why, the punishment is light?"
"No." The emperor shook his head helplessly. Now he is afraid he will be in trouble with the Yuwen family.
After Yuwen Xiong retreated, the Empress Dowager said leisurely again, "Yexue is not too small, it's time to make a kiss."
At this time, Ye Xue was drinking water and was successfully choked.
