Transmigrated Empresses (Male and Female)

Chapter 123

“Your Majesty, the month before last, someone secretly reported that Minister Shen was harassing a woman. Last month, someone suspected him of colluding with rebels. Just before I went to court, I received a report—” The Grand Tutor stopped and looked at me defiantly.

I looked at him blankly, wondering if he could receive anything of value.

"Minister Shen went to Fu Nuan Pavilion yesterday." The Grand Tutor's words were astonishing and would surely lead to his demise.

I looked at Qianqing speechlessly. It seemed like everyone had been there, so why single me out? Chouqian went too, why didn't you mention him?

Just as I was about to plead my case, Zi Mo suddenly stepped forward with a grim expression: "Grand Tutor, what evidence do you have?"

that is.

Thick-skinned also shielded me at this moment, his body stern as he said, "Grand Tutor, you must not speak nonsense."

The problem is, what if I actually go?

Chou Qian turned slightly to face the crowd and said calmly, "Is only Minister Shen mentioned in the Grand Tutor's report?"

"This..." The Grand Tutor seemed unable to hold back even upon seeing Chou Qian, and hesitated, "Your Excellency, Minister Shen has indeed gone..."

"Give it to me. I also have a list here. Let's check the number of people."

The Grand Tutor knelt down with a thud: "Your Majesty the Prime Minister..."

I saw almost half of the court officials at Fu Nuan Pavilion. If that were reported out... hehe, that would be interesting.

"If the Grand Tutor cannot answer, how would he know where Vice Minister Shen is?"

The Grand Tutor immediately changed his tune: "I just spoke carelessly..."

"Someone come here!" Qianqing suddenly said, "Please ask the Grand Tutor to go out and rest. I understand that the Grand Tutor is old and frail, so I ask him to take good care of himself."

The Grand Tutor stared at Qianqing in surprise, but before he could utter his accusations, Qianqing had already left.

I watched him leave in a friendly manner, waving my hand affectionately as I went out. When I turned back, I met Zi Mo's murderous gaze. I shrank back, lowered my head timidly, and realized I was in deep trouble; I had messed with the person I shouldn't have.

"Do my beloved ministers have anything else to say?"

Everyone was dejected, marking the second time the situation had deteriorated since the "West Wind Mission" incident.

"Since everyone has nothing more to say, let's disperse. We reject Minister Shen's proposal for post-drought reconstruction."

Xiao Hai sang loudly, and Sun Erpin and Gao Erpin visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

After Qianqing left, the shameless man immediately apologized to Sun Erpin, but Sun Zhixian didn't even glance at him, and he just followed behind.

When the music ended and everyone left, I was still kneeling in the same spot. It wasn't that I wanted to kneel, but Zi Mo had been staring at me without blinking the entire time. This made me afraid to make any big movements.

An hour later, Zi Mo finally had enough and kindly asked, "Go to Fu Nuan Pavilion." His voice was incredibly subdued.

After scratching my head and thinking it over, I honestly said, "Yes."

"Have you forgotten who you are! How dare you go to a place like that!"

Zi Mo roared loudly, his face extremely ugly. I looked up at him; this seemed to be the first time he had ever yelled at me.

"Do you want to die?!" Zi Mo clenched his fists, veins bulging.

I remained silent. Zi Mo got angry. He was really angry. This was the first time he had ever lost his temper with me since we were children.

I lowered my head, knelt before him, and let him scold me. He was the person with the most right to discipline me besides my mother. Everything I had was given to me by him, so of course he could be angry.

“You told me yesterday that you’ve been in the palace all this time.”

I didn't say "always," I just skipped Fu Nuan Ge.

"You've even learned to lie!"

I never intended to lie to you; I would never lie to you, no matter who I lie to.

“I raised you all these years, and I know you have a bad temper, but I never thought you would…” Zi Mo flicked his sleeves and leaped over me, leaving without a second thought.

I looked at him; it seemed he had never abandoned me!

Chou Qian stood at the entrance of the main hall, like a spectator.

I suddenly realized that the people who love me the most in this world are my mother and Zimo!

But I hurt him, and I hurt him over something I thought was unimportant.

I stood up, but a sharp pain in my leg made me fall to the ground again. Chou Qian stood at the door the whole time, not coming up to help me. I knew he was holding a grudge against me for rejecting him, but it didn't matter, because there was someone who had never held a grudge against me.

I stood up again to chase after the most important family member in my life.

"Fourth Brother, open the door."

Fourth Brother.

"Fourth Brother, I was wrong." I pounded on the tightly closed door. Although I didn't think I was wrong, if Zi Mo said I was wrong, then I would admit I was wrong.

"Fourth Brother, I know I was wrong, please open the door."

Zi Mo ignored me.

I moved a stool, stood on it, and knocked on the window: "Fourth Brother, if you don't open the door, I'm going to climb through the window."

"No!" Zi Mo yelled at me, without showing himself.

I smiled gently. This is Zi Mo. Even when he's angry, he remembers what I can't do.
