Chapter 22 Yan Qing, You Are so Insolent
Yan Qing easily grabbed her wrist, and her beautiful face was full of mocking smiles: "Mother, you'd better save your energy."
The Queen Mother's chest heaved with anger.
It has been a long time since she lost her composure.
Even though she had faced harem struggles, exiled her daughter, and even faced the death of the previous emperor, she always maintained the elegance that a queen should have, and never got angry in front of others.
But Yan Qing could make her lose her composure in less than a cup of tea.
The Queen Mother pulled back her hand, sat down stiffly, and asked with gritted teeth: "What do you want to do?"
"I just want to seek an explanation for the injustice I have suffered."
The Queen Mother took a deep breath and softened her tone: "I know that I was unfair to you before, but no one can ignore the predictions of the Imperial Observatory. After all, this is related to the survival of the royal family. Your brother has been in poor health since childhood. I can't help but think too much. You should be considerate."
Yan Qing raised his eyebrows: "Considerate?"
The Queen Mother suppressed her disgust, and showed some self-blame and apology on her face: "I will compensate you in the future."
She thought Yan Qing was just throwing a tantrum at her, relying on the little military power given to her by the late emperor before his death to compete with the emperor, but in fact it was just because he had resentment in his heart.
So the Queen Mother felt that it should work to appeal to emotions and reason.
However, Yan Qing just smiled: "Compensation?"
"Yes."
Yan Qing took a sip of tea and said casually: "How does the Queen Mother plan to compensate me?"
The Queen Mother asked: "What do you want?"
Yan Qing raised his eyes: "I want 100,000 taels of gold, will the Queen Mother give it to me?"
The Queen Mother's expression froze.
Yan Qing continued: "I want the chair that Yan Chen sat on, can the Queen Mother decide?"
"Yan Qing!" The Queen Mother said angrily, "You are so presumptuous!"
Such a rebellious act, it is simply a crime worthy of death!
"Look, you just said a few words, and the image of a loving mother can't be maintained again." Yan Qing sneered, "I remember that my mother used to be very calm and dignified, and she was at ease in everything she encountered, and she rarely lost her composure."
The Queen Mother gritted her teeth. No one dared to make her so angry before, and she certainly wouldn't lose her composure.
"What do you want me to do in exchange for the antidote?"
"Who should I give the antidote to?" Yan Qing asked calmly, "If I give it to my mother, I can't give it to Yan Chen. He will be in pain for three days every month, and the pain makes him feel worse than death. If there is no antidote for a year, even if he doesn't die, he will be tortured terribly, and he may not live to see the day when the throne is stable."
After a pause, "If the antidote is given to Yan Chen, my mother will have to suffer such torture. My mother is old and a woman. Her physical strength and endurance are not as good as those of young men. You have to think carefully."
The queen mother's face was pale and ugly, and she wished she could chop this evil beast alive.
"Mother, please go back and think about it." Yan Qing stood up, as if she was going to see the guest off. "I will not see the Queen Mother out. Goodbye, Queen Mother."
The Queen Mother said coldly: "Give me the antidote, and I will take it to Yan Chen."
"Are you sure, Queen Mother?"
The Queen Mother said coldly: "The country cannot be without a king for a day. For the sake of the country, I would rather suffer myself than let Yan Chen get hurt."
"The Queen Mother really has a deep mother-son love for Yan Chen." Yan Qing's red lips curled slightly, "It's a pity that I am not very happy, so there is no antidote today, and..."
The Queen Mother frowned: "And what?"
"The Queen Mother may still be skeptical about what I said." Yan Qing smiled lightly, "After the Queen Mother returns to the palace, wait for the poison to take effect once, and then come to talk to me about the antidote."
After that, she turned around and left without looking back.
"Yan Qing, do you still have any humanity?" The Queen Mother was furious. "I am your mother. If you are so disobedient and unfilial, you will be cursed by the world and struck by lightning!"
Cursed by the world, struck by lightning?
If she is really struck by lightning now, the first person to applaud will probably be her biological mother, right?
Yan Qing curled his lips sarcastically. Talking about family affection? Talking about blood? Talking about human nature?
The Queen Mother is not qualified.
Back to the bedroom, Yan Qing ordered someone to bring Hu Yunfei, the youngest son of Hu Yushi.
The other party struggled and cursed, his face full of anger: "Why did you arrest me? The princess is too lawless, I want to file a complaint with the emperor, I must file a complaint with the emperor!"
Yan Qing looked at him coldly and said lightly: "Take him away and beat him with fifty lashes."
"Yes!"
"Why beat me?" The 17-year-old boy's eyes were full of fire, "What did I do wrong? The princess is domineering with the Qilin Guard in her hands? If the late emperor knew about it, he would definitely regret letting you take charge of the Qilin Guard-"
"Add fifty." Yan Qing said lightly.
Hu Yunfei was so angry that he lost control: "Yan Qing, you are a star of misfortune! You are cold-blooded and heartless, and your heart, liver and lungs are all black-"
"Add another fifty."
"Who in the whole court doesn't know that you are a devil? You are an ominous thing!"
"Add a hundred."
The whip was whipped hard, and Hu Yunfei's face turned pale with pain: "Let me go! Why do you hit me!"
"You can continue to scold." Yan Qing leaned against the door frame and looked at him with a smile, "Let's see whether you are good at talking or your small body can withstand the whip."
Hu Yunfei wanted to say something else, but thinking of the number of whips that Yan Qing added again and again, his momentum could not help but weaken by three points: "How many...how many times do you want to hit?"
"Shen Mo."
"Reporting to Your Highness, a total of two hundred and fifty whips."
Two hundred and fifty whips?
Hu Yunfei's face changed drastically: "I will die, I will definitely die, just kill me! I don't want to be whipped so much."
"Don't worry, 250 lashes won't kill anyone." Yan Qing turned and entered the palace, "Control the strength and save his life."
"Yes."
"Your Highness, Princess, you can't hit me! My father is the censor, he will impeach you, he will definitely impeach you!" Hu Yunfei yelled outside, "Is it not enough that I won't scold you? Spare me, it hurts so much! Ah, it hurts so much, be gentle, be gentle..."
Yan Qing sat in front of the window, slightly closed his eyes, listening to the voices of begging for mercy and admitting mistakes outside, with a faint smile on his face.
"Wen Jin, do you think this sound is nice?"
Wen Jin said: "Nice."
"You have a problem with your ears." Yan Qing opened his eyes and looked at him, his eyes subtle, "Shen Mo, it's too noisy."
"Yes."
Shen Mo blocked Hu Yunfei's mouth to stop him from shouting, so he heard the whip falling on his body and the sound of whining clearly entering his ears.
Yan Qing raised his hand and called someone over: "Go tell Hu Yushi that his son was beaten in this palace for speaking rudely, and the beating was not light. If he wants to impeach this palace, he can continue."
"Yes."
Yan Qing turned his head slightly and looked at the clean bluestone outside the window. His bright and beautiful face was as clear and indifferent as ice and snow.
He lowered his head and stared at his slender fingers painted with red nail polish. His five fingers were slender, his skin was cold and white like jade, and he had a pair of beautiful hands.
"Wen Jin, do my hands look good?"
"Good."
"If it was stained with blood, it would look better."
Tianshaoluoxing
All those who hate her, hate her, and try their best to kill her should die.
When those people die, my ears will be quiet and the air will be fresh and clean.
Yan Qing smiled, her eyes were full of beauty, so beautiful that it was breathtaking.
