338 Chapter 338: A scholar who is full of five poisons 3
Does Prime Minister Qiao know?
Of course he doesn't know!
After he fainted, he was sent back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, where he struggled for a long time before being revived by the imperial physician.
Opening his eyes and shaking his slightly dizzy mind, he sat up and asked, "Your Majesty, are you mad at me from my wife and daughter?"
The butler was silent for a moment.
Finally, under Prime Minister Qiao's disbelieving eyes, he nodded, "That's what the palace said. Madam asked the Queen Mother to let the young lady enter the palace as the queen, but the Queen Mother refused and wanted to marry the young lady, but the lady sternly refused, and the Queen Mother became angry.
At once……"
"Master, master..."
The housekeeper quickly supported the shaky Prime Minister Qiao, "Now that the madam and young lady are locked up in the palace, what do you think should be done?"
"What should I do? Let them die in the palace!"
Prime Minister Qiao said bluntly.
The Queen Mother is so angry that this crime is too big. If someone is not careful, the entire Qiao family will be implicated.
Thinking of this, Qiao Cheng felt quite a sense of crisis, so he quickly got up and walked into the study. He picked up a pen and wrote a letter requesting that Mrs. Qiao and Qiao Yuan be killed.
The book was passed to Qiao Jinhuan that afternoon.
"Look, I said my real father would kill his relatives out of justice, right?"
Qiao Jinhuan handed the folder to Chu Ji.
"He's always been like that."
Chu Ji was also indifferent, raising his hands to hug the person in his arms tightly, "Be careful, don't fall."
"No, I believe Erlang will definitely protect me."
Qiao Jinhuan bent down to touch the things on the table, "He wanted to take it easy, but I refused to let him. Mrs. Qiao can die, Qiao Yuan... I will abide by the Queen Mother's last wish and find her a romantic and talented man as her husband. What do you think of Erlang?"
?”
She raised her eyes, and the evil in her eyes was clear.
But Chu Ji didn't think anything was wrong. He raised his hand and touched her hair, and said indulgently, "Okay, it's up to you."
Chu Ji knew exactly what kind of life Qiao Jinhuan lived in the Qiao Mansion.
She was also bullied by Qiao Yuan.
But now that he has turned over, what if he wants to bully him back? It's just human nature.
"Erlang, I don't know what the situation of the talented people outside is like in the palace. This candidate?"
"I'll choose."
"I want a romantic talent!"
Qiao Jinhuan emphasized the word "风流" and winked at Chu Ji playfully.
Chu Ji couldn't help but laugh.
"Okay, then I'll choose a few talented people and let you pick them, okay?"
"mua~"
Qiao Jinhuan tilted her head and kissed him on the lips, shouting sweetly, "I knew Erlang was the best."
In fact, Chu Ji was not familiar with those romantic talents.
What he holds in his hands is military power, and he is familiar with the group of generals who are not stingy. He really doesn't know much about the civil servants.
But it doesn't matter.
It's hard to find a truly talented person with both resourcefulness and talent. Isn't it also hard to find a romantic person? Then Qin Lou and Chu Guan will catch a lot of them.
Within two days, he had shortlisted the list and sent it to Qiao Jinhuan.
"This is the second son of the Marquis of Dongyang. He loves dancing and writing, and has outstanding poetic talent. Unfortunately, he has seventeen or eight women in his house, as well as an outside wife. He has no control over his female sex."
"And this, the son of the governor of Yinzhou, he is nineteen years old and has repeatedly failed in the imperial examination..."
Qiao Jinhuan looked through the information of several people on the list and finally settled on one candidate - Xiao Jin.
Xiao Jin, the eldest son of Marquis Muyang, was eighteen years old.
The status of the Muyanghou Mansion is now much lower than before, and it has gradually become an invisible mansion in the circle of princes and princes. The eldest son of the Muyanghou Mansion came from the late ex-wife of the Muyanghou Mansion, and he and his step-wife are quite difficult to deal with.
Although Xiao Jin is famous for his talent, he was raised by his stepmother to be a libertine and played around by the women in the backyard, which shows that he is stupid.
If Qiao Yuan gets married, the first thing she will have to face is her stepmother, a dozen concubines and a concubine.
For any ancient daughter, this was the beginning of hell.
"Does Erlang think I've gone too far?"
After Qiao Jinhuan chose the person, Lai looked at Chu Ji in his arms.
Looking at her worried eyes, Chu Ji kissed her comfortingly, "Is it too much? Qiao Yuan is not a kind person, and she deserves to end up like this. After all, Jin Huanshang still spared her life, out of his heart.
Be merciful."
Qiao Jinhuan hugged him and played coquettishly for a while, then sent someone out to deliver the message - to kill Mrs. Qiao and arrange marriage for Qiao Yuan.
The Empress Dowager's coffin was still in Cihe Palace. Mrs. Qiao, who had been imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison for several days, was escorted to Cihe Palace in a state of despair. She drank a glass of poisonous wine and died on the spot in front of the coffin.
The corpse, along with Qiao Yuan who was pale with fright, were sent back to Prime Minister Qiao's Mansion.
Prime Minister Qiao couldn't help but sigh when he looked at the corpse.
After all, after being married for so many years, it would be a lie to say that he was not at all sad about Mrs. Qiao's death.
But it's not too sad.
Prime Minister Qiao didn't stay in the coffin for three days. He asked someone to pull Mrs. Qiao out of the mansion and bury her in a low-key manner overnight. When he looked back at Qiao Yuan, he shook his head repeatedly.
"Dad~Dad..."
Qiao Yuan grabbed Prime Minister Qiao's sleeve and said, "Dad, I don't want to marry Xiao Jin!"
How could she not know who Xiao Jin was?
If you really get married, how can you live a good life?
"You have to marry even if you don't want to marry. This is the Queen Mother's decree. Or would you rather be buried with the Queen Mother?"
Prime Minister Qiao asked in a calm tone.
Qiao Yuan trembled all over, "Dad? This is not the Queen Mother's decree. This is Qiao Jinhuan's deliberate attempt to mess with me. She pointed me out to Xiao Jin on purpose and wanted to ruin the rest of my life. Dad, you have to make the decision for me!"
"So what?"
Prime Minister Qiao snorted coldly, "When I asked you to enter the palace, you didn't go, and now you can't blame dad for not saving you. Also, don't talk about Qiao Jinhuan, she is the imperial concubine."
"You'd better wait for me to get married in peace. If something happens, don't blame dad for being ruthless."
After giving a solemn warning, Prime Minister Qiao pulled back his sleeves and strode out, "The Queen Mother died of illness, and the young lady was very sad and sad. Therefore, she was seriously ill, so I asked the young lady to take a good rest in the yard."
This sounds nice, but in fact it means Qiao Yuan is put into solitary confinement.
As he left and the courtyard door closed, Qiao Yuan felt that the sky would be dark for the rest of her life.
"Woooooooo..."
She was half-kneeling on the ground, crying like resentment and admiration, as terrifying as a wild ghost crying in the grave.
If only she had married into the palace, she would have been a serious queen, and she would not have been accused of marrying a libertine...
It would have been better if she hadn't asked Qiao Jinhuan to marry into the palace...
If she had listened to her parents' advice, even just a few sentences, her end would have been much better than now!
Just when Qiao Yuan was feeling sorry for himself, Prime Minister Qiao was sitting in the study, frowning, looking very embarrassed.
He was thinking about Qiao Jinhuan's attitude towards Qiao Mansion.
Judging from the fact that she proposed marriage to Qiao Yuan and poisoned Mrs. Qiao, she obviously still hated their previous friendship.
But Mrs. Qiao was so angry with the Queen Mother that Qiao Jinhuan did not use the topic to target the Qiao family. Does this mean that she actually did not want to offend herself to death?
