Chapter 236 Don't mess with her, or you'll end up in a funeral pyre
Shen Yindi and Si Qi asked in unison. They seemed a little surprised.
"Chu Heng has been very honest recently, and has only focused on performing in front of the emperor. The emperor will not do anything serious to punish him for these rumors. At most, he will just reprimand him or let him reflect on his mistakes behind closed doors."
"He is the crown prince chosen by our father himself. If I punish him, wouldn't that prove that I have poor judgment? I would be contradicting myself."
Chu Yan analyzed it with them.
"Then we have evidence?"
"Even if there is evidence, it cannot threaten his position as the crown prince. In his opinion, these are not unforgivable crimes."
"Chu Heng is his eldest son after all."
Shen Yindi understood.
This is called protecting one's shortcomings.
After all, it is not like modern society, where there are such fair rights.
She realized that she was being a little idealistic.
How could the emperor do anything to his eldest son because of such a thing? It would not affect his position as the crown prince.
Si Qi clenched his fist and boldly spoke on the microphone: "Dog Emperor!
"Did we do this in vain?" Si Qi said sullenly. She performed so well today!
Shen Yindi immediately perked up. She smiled and comforted him, "Of course it's not in vain! Qi'er, don't belittle yourself."
"Look, this matter has been widely reported today. Isn't it immediately overshadowing the slander against my prince yesterday?"
"The entire imperial capital is discussing this matter today. The emperor will not punish him, but among us ordinary people, we naturally have our own standards."
"Also, doesn't the Queen want to form an alliance with the Lin family? Now this gives Shuya a good reason to refuse."
When Si Qi heard Shen Yindi say this, his originally dim eyes instantly brightened up.
"Oh yeah! That's a big help too!"
"Of course. If Shuya knew, she would be very grateful to you!"
"But we still have to keep this a secret."
"Okay, as long as it's useful!"
Soon, Mu Ningyuan rushed over after hearing the news.
Everyone in the imperial capital knew that Shen Yindi brought the girl back for treatment, so he guessed something.
They had finished lunch when he arrived.
Si Qi was bored at the moment and was about to go back to sleep.
Almost bumped into Mu Ningyuan.
"Brother Mu, why are you here?" Si Qi didn't sleep well last night and was very sleepy now.
If the emperor doesn't punish Chu Heng, then there's no need to act out the sequel. It's boring!
"Qier, tell me honestly, today on the street..."
Before Mu Ningyuan finished speaking, Si Qi answered directly: "It's me."
The answer was so straightforward that Mu Ningyuan frowned slightly.
His tone was a little stern: "Do you know that doing this is very dangerous? If the Queen finds out, your life may be in danger..."
"So what? Are you lecturing me? Am I a person who is afraid of death? So what about the queen? Am I afraid of her?"
"If you want to kill me, come quickly. I'm not afraid!" Si Qi said angrily.
She was already feeling angry.
Mu Ningyuan pursed his lips, not knowing what to say for a moment.
"Adi, I'm leaving. I'm going back to sleep." After saying that, she walked around Mu Ningyuan and went out.
Another brother from Tingyin Pavilion followed her.
Shen Yindi sighed silently.
"Master Mu, Qi'er has changed her appearance today, no one will notice."
"Don't be angry with her, she's very nice. And she's not the kind of person who is timid."
Mu Ningyuan was a little discouraged.
He was just worried, so why would he be angry with her?
The way she did just now, she was the one who was angry, right?
"I'm not angry. Instead, she might be angry with me. I was indeed a bit harsh just now." Lord Mu has begun to reflect on himself.
"You are also too concerned."
"But with Qi'er's personality, she should forget it after a good night's sleep."
"That's just her personality. Don't be so harsh on her in the future," Shen Yindi reminded.
She didn't say it too bluntly.
It's okay once, but if you say this to her every time, you will end up chasing your wife to the crematorium in the future.
"I know."
"My Lord, let's go back too."
Shen Yindi thought, I should have a good rest today and go into the mountains to look for something tomorrow.
If we can find the things left behind by Lord Lu Zhen, it might be most useful to Chu Yan!
"Okay." Chu Yan agreed.
Then he looked at Mu Ningyuan and said, "Ningyuan, do you have anything else to say?"
"Not yet. It has been dealt with today. I will take a day off tomorrow."
"Then come to my palace for dinner tonight and discuss tomorrow's affairs."
"Okay." Mu Ningyuan agreed almost without thinking.
After Shen Yindi returned home, the first thing he did was to go see Chu Yao.
Lin Shuya came to visit Chu Yao today.
Mu Ningyuan followed Chu Yan here, and they went straight to the study.
Si Qi came back first, and she had already gone back to her room to sleep.
She had hardly slept last night, so she had to make up for it.
Shen Yindi felt Chu Yao's pulse. Knowing that she was poisoned by the same poison as Zi Yan, it would be much easier for her to treat her.
"How do you feel now, Ayao?" Shen Yindi asked with a smile.
"Much better, thank you Adi, it's a blessing to have you." Chu Yao's strength recovered a little, and she spoke with more confidence.
She is really a very gentle girl.
"You're welcome. Get enough rest, eat more and sleep more. Your body will recover quickly. Go out for a walk when you feel more energetic. There is a bamboo forest behind us with nice scenery."
"Okay, I'll try my best." Chu Yao agreed with a smile.
Shen Yindi was actually a little surprised to see Lin Shuya was there too.
"Shuya, aren't you going to the palace to play with Chu Yue today?" she asked.
"I refused. Because of the rumors about the prince in the city today, I don't feel any burden to refuse now."
Shen Yindi smiled: "Very good."
"I heard that you rescued that girl? How is she now?" Lin Shuya asked curiously.
"She's too tired and injured, so she may need to rest for a while. I arranged for her to rest outside." Shen Yindi said calmly.
"That's good. It's not easy for a weak woman like her to come to the imperial capital alone."
“It’s admirable.”
"Indeed, many women in brothels are very strong-willed."
"Hey, why can't I see Qi'er?" Lin Shuya asked curiously.
Usually she and Shen Yindi are inseparable.
"Qier didn't sleep well last night, so he's catching up on his sleep now."
"No wonder."
"Shuya, please have dinner at home today. Lord Mu is here too." Shen Yindi invited.
"Lord Mu, the Minister of Dali Temple?" Lin Shuya was a little surprised.
"Yes, he and my prince are close friends."
Lin Shuya nodded in understanding: "I see. Then I will respectfully obey your command."
"Okay, I'll go back to my room and rest for a while. I'll ask Aunt Fu to come and call you for dinner."
"Row."
Time passed quickly, the sky gradually darkened, and it was time for dinner.
After everyone sat down, Mu Ningyuan took a quick look, frowned slightly, then looked at Shen Yindi and asked, "Why didn't Qi'er come?"
