Chapter 168: Death to Show One’s Will

Give everyone some decency.

Who doesn’t understand the meaning of this sentence? But Qi Xuefei couldn't believe that her grandfather could be so cruel.

She is his granddaughter.

Xu didn't expect such a result. She knelt on the ground for a long time and was completely confused.

What the head of a large family says is equivalent to an imperial edict, and no one dares to disobey it.

By the time he came to his senses, Mrs. Qi had already ordered Aunt Yu, the most influential person in the house, to take Qi Xuefei to her yard.

This nanny was Mrs. Qi's dowry when she was still alive. She has served the old lady since she was young and has never married and has no children.

The old lady passed away due to illness three years ago. In view of the loyal and hard work of the grandmother for so many years, and because he was worried that she would be helpless in her old age, Mrs. Qi ordered her to take over the power of the inner courtyard and assist Mrs. Dafang in managing the middle court.

Even Mrs. Dafang respects her greatly.

Taifu Qi ordered her to do this, which already proved that there was no room for turning around.

Mrs. Xu's face turned pale. When she came to her senses, she knelt on the ground and begged in a hissing voice: "Father! Xuefei is your granddaughter, your biological granddaughter!

Qi Zhengde, the second son of the Qi family, subconsciously wanted to go into the room and ask for help.

But something suddenly occurred to him. His feet were filled with lead and he couldn't take a step forward. He turned his head and looked at his wife and daughter, his eyes full of pain: "You... Oh, what on earth are you doing!"

"Master, master!" Mrs. Xu hugged his leg and cried and begged, "Xue Fei is the victim, why did my father want to execute her?"

"You are so stupid." Qi Zhengde pointed angrily, hating that iron cannot be made into steel. "The Qi family are now loyal ministers in front of His Majesty. They are loyal to His Majesty. Both Jin Hao and Fang Fei have been put in important positions by Your Majesty, but King Jingjun's ambition is still alive. , you...are you not setting your father up for injustice?"

Xu's face was full of reluctance: "I just want to find a noble husband for Xue Fei. Am I wrong? Qi Jinhao and Qi Fangfei are both capable, but they are not my children. Their prosperity and wealth have nothing to do with me - "

"You know nothing!" Qi Zhengde kicked her away and was so angry that he said, "Every family in the Qi family is prosperous, and all will suffer. The adults will participate in the Autumn Festival this year, and you will ruin the lives of your two sons." A future? Stupid woman!”

After saying that, he turned to look at Nanny Yu who was standing aside, closed his eyes, and said coldly: "Take her away."

"Father, father!" Qi Xuefei turned pale and begged for mercy in fear, "My daughter doesn't want to die, my daughter doesn't want to die!"

"You have lost your reputation. Do you want to shame the Qi family by dying?" Qi Zhengde looked at her coldly, "If there is an afterlife, you should learn more from your cousin Fangfei!"

After saying this, he waved his hand to Mammy to take her away.

Qi Xuefei cried and begged for mercy, begging her father and mother. She was in her prime years, but her father and mother could not save her.

She begged her grandfather, but he ignored her.

Qi Xuefei regretted it.

But regrets are of no use.

Mrs. Xu cried so much that her eyes were swollen and she felt regretful.

Taifu Qi sat quietly in the study for a long time, his face gloomy, as if he had aged more than ten years in an instant.

Half an hour later, Grandma Yu came to report that the person had been sent away.

Taifu Qi nodded, got up and went to the back hall to change into court clothes. He left the Taifu's house and entered the palace to meet the saint.

"The veteran is getting old and wants to resign from his post as Grand Tutor and enjoy his old age in peace. I hope your Majesty will give you permission."

Yan Donghuang looked at the haggard old man in front of him, walked over and helped him up personally: "I can understand Tai Tu's mood, but there is no need to resign. Jin Hao and Fang Fei are both excellent children. I believe Tai Fu Fu would be proud of them."

Taifu Qi was tired and ashamed: "This kind of thing happened at home. It's because I didn't teach you well. I feel ashamed of the emperor."

Yan Donghuang smiled nonchalantly: "There is nothing to be ashamed of. The dragon gave birth to nine sons, and the sons are different. What's more, Qi Xuefei is already a grandson. Taifu is busy in the court and does not have so much energy and time to personally teach his descendants. It is necessary to teach your children well. It’s the responsibility of the father and the mother.”

Taifu Qi lowered his eyes and said nothing

Yan Donghuang said sternly: "Qi Jinhao and Qi Fangfei are still young and will need the Taifu's protection for a while."

Taifu Qi bowed deeply: "Why does Your Majesty value the Qi family so much?"

"What I value is not a family, but a capable person." Yan Donghuang turned back to the chair and sat down, "Fang Fei is a courageous and courageous woman. As a woman, I admire her and hope that one day she can be my Qi Jinhao has the world at his heart. Although he comes from a wealthy family, he can take the people into his heart and work for them sincerely. I think it is even more valuable. "

Taifu Qi bowed and thanked him: "It is their blessing to be respected by His Majesty."

Yan Donghuang said: "Teacher, you don't have to have any psychological burden. Whoever I choose is based on ability, not face."

Whether it is Qi Jinhao or Qi Fangfei, if they can maintain their original aspirations, they will have a bright future.

If the original intention was not there, she would not tolerate them.

Taifu Qi was silent for a moment: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Yan Donghuang said indifferently: "Send Qi Xuefei to a nunnery."

Taifu Qi lowered his eyes and said, "She ruined her innocence and knew that she had insulted the family tradition. In order to preserve her reputation as a strong person, she committed suicide to show her determination."

Yan Donghuang was silent after hearing this, nodded slowly, and said no more.

"I excuse myself." Taifu Qi resigned and left.

Walking outside the hall, Qi Fangfei was standing there.

Taifu Qi warned: "You don't have to worry about things at home, just do your own thing."

Qi Fangfei nodded: "My granddaughter knows."

Taifu Qi left quickly.

Qi Fangfei looked at her grandfather's old back and didn't speak for a long time.

Until his figure disappeared from her sight, Qi Fangfei turned around and stepped into Chongming Hall, her face pale: "This result is the best. Xuefei is willful and arrogant. Even if she really goes to a nunnery, she will probably cause trouble sooner or later."

Yan Donghuang didn't say anything.

Although Master Qi was a little cruel, he handled this matter very decisively. After all, the incident happened in Beiyang Marquis's Mansion. There were many guests and many people. The only thing that would be ruined was the reputation of the Qi family.

Even if Qi Xuefei really married Yan Ming, she would inevitably be criticized in the future, and the Qi family would be ashamed because of this matter.

The person died, and it was all over.

Even if some people knew that there was something fishy about Qi Xuefei and Yan Ming, they would not discuss it anymore. Instead, they would once again recognize the Qi family as a noble family because of Qi Xuefei's death.

Of course, these are not the most important.

If it was just because of the damage to her reputation, Master Qi would more or less leave Qi Xuefei a way out.

But she should never, ever, get involved with Yan Ming.

Yan Donghuang said calmly: "I'll give you a day off, go back and have a good rest."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Qi Fangfei said goodbye and left.

Yan Donghuang walked to the window and stood there, with a bit of coldness between his brows.

Yan Ming had just recovered from his injury not long ago, and he couldn't hold back again. He thought that by marrying Qi Xuefei, he could get the support of Master Qi?

What a fantasy.

In the evening, Feng Yaoguang chose the time for dinner and stepped into the Chongming Hall on time: "Your Majesty, the Imperial Astronomical Observatory calculated the result and said that November is suitable for marriage."

Yan Donghuang looked up.

Feng Yaoguang came in a red robe, with a tall and thin body and a handsome face. It really seemed that he was wrapped in thousands of elegance and had a dazzling light.

Walking to Yan Donghuang's side, he bowed slightly, lowered his eyebrows and asked, "Can I have dinner with Your Majesty?"

Yan Donghuang looked subtle: "What are you doing?"

"I have decided to influence Your Majesty with my sincerity and actions." Feng Yaoguang raised the corners of his mouth and said confidently, "Your Majesty is not heartless, but has never felt the love between men and women. Once Your Majesty realizes my goodness, no man will be able to catch Your Majesty's eye in the future."
