Chapter 175 Queen Mother, can I be like you and keep a male lover by learning rules and etiquette?
Chapter 175 Queen Mother, can I be like you and keep a male lover by learning rules and etiquette?
"It's ridiculous. How can a little girl like you have the heart to be a Taoist? And you want to inherit the mantle of Qingyun Temple? You should learn the rules and etiquette, and take good care of your husband and children in the future?" The Queen Mother scolded with disdain.
"Queen Mother, if I learn the rules and etiquette from you, will I be able to have many male favorites?" Zheng An Ning looked up and asked innocently.
"You have a baby in your belly now? You can't do anything shameful with your male lover!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the ministers were in an uproar, with shocked faces. What?
"Ridiculous! What are you talking about? You are so young and yet you talk nonsense? Someone, come and slap me in the face." The empress dowager was furious. She waved her sleeves in anger, her face turned red, and her beautiful face instantly became gloomy.
"You bastard, how dare you tarnish the reputation of the Empress Dowager? Zheng Yuanshan, is this how you teach your daughter? You are totally unqualified to teach a daughter." Prime Minister Ye pointed at Zheng An Ning and scolded her with a mocking look and a gloomy face.
[Tsk, Prime Minister Ye thinks he's been cuckolded? Your social circle is really messy! ]
Madam Rong walked towards Zheng An Ning and wanted to pull her up, but unexpectedly, the mighty general inadvertently stretched out his foot and tripped her to the ground.
"Oh, Madam Rong, are you okay? I'm old and my legs are not under my control. Don't blame me." The mighty general asked with a smile.
Rong Mama lay on the ground grimacing in pain, covering her mouth. She felt like her teeth were about to fall out.
She was so angry that she dared not say anything. She got up in anger, but unexpectedly, she fell to the ground with a thud again.
"Madame Rong, tell me, you don't have to give me such a big gift," Zheng An Ning said with a smile, clapping her hands.
Rong Ma was in so much pain that she couldn't stand up. She was already old, and had to suffer so much. Her eyes were full of resentment as she glared at Zheng An Ning. It was all her fault. If she hadn't slandered her master, she wouldn't have had to fall.
Emperor Xuanwu had a blank expression on his face, making it hard to guess what he was thinking. His eyes were threatening, "Alright, it's just a joke from a child. That's it. If you dare to say anything else..."
"I'm tired, everyone can go!" Emperor Xuanwu waved his hand, signaling everyone to disperse.
Zheng An Ning was still hugging her father's thigh, pouting her lips in dissatisfaction. Humph, she hasn't had enough fun yet, and this is it?
Very good, she succeeded in pulling down the hatred again.
The Queen Mother had a gloomy face and stared at Zheng An Ning with resentment. She turned around and walked away leisurely. Very good, she would let her know how to write the word death.
She glanced at Chu Jifeng again. What an unlucky thing! He should not have come if he had known.
"Zheng Anning, you stay," Emperor Xuanwu said indifferently, with some dissatisfaction in his eyes. He glared at Zheng Yuanshan again, saying that he did not know how to teach his daughter well.
This is a matter of royal dignity. Even if he is tolerant and indulges Zheng An Ning, he cannot let her make this matter public.
Otherwise, he would have lost his face. Besides, couldn't such a big thing be told to him in private? Why did he have to shout it out loud?
Zheng Yuanshan pulled Zheng Anning up with a helpless look on his face, and said dissatisfiedly, "Look at you, a girl, it's not nice to throw a tantrum. Don't lie on the ground next time, it's dirty."
"Look how expensive your clothes are, what a waste"
"Oh, then what should I do if I don't throw a tantrum? It's not good to hit someone directly, right? She's the queen mother. If I hit her, wouldn't it be too arrogant?" Zheng An Ning stood up, patted his butt, and said in embarrassment.
"What's wrong with your head? Aren't you a Taoist? Give her a talisman or something to make her unlucky for a few days?" Zheng Yuanshan poked Zheng An Ning's forehead and lectured her directly in the hall.
"If cursing doesn't work, why not try poisoning? Didn't your mother research a lot about itching powder? Try it and make her look bad in public."
The officials who had not left yet were stunned. So this is how you were taught?
Teach your daughter how to plot against someone?
No, whose daughter is taught the way you do?
Emperor Xuanwu was numb. He knew that Zheng Yuanshan was not a human being, but he didn't expect that he was so brave to teach his daughter. He would be as cruel as possible, right?
Zheng Anning:........
Good, he is indeed a treacherous minister. "Itching powder, how come my mother has these things?"
"When your mother was young, she loved to study some strange things. What's the big deal? These measurements of yours are just what we left over from playing with them."
[Tsk, then he would be plotted to death by the male and female protagonists? ]
"........"
Zheng An Ning was numb. She had been criticized and lectured by Emperor Xuanwu for two hours. She was almost sleepy while Zheng Yuanshan interrupted her.
For example, Emperor Xuanwu: Don’t speak some things in public, as it will embarrass the person involved and will not be conducive to making friends.
Zheng Yuanshan: Well, the person involved is morally corrupt, we don’t need that friend.
Emperor Xuanwu said: You should learn some rules and etiquette, and don't let people misunderstand your Zheng family's upbringing.
Zheng Yuanshan said: It doesn't matter whether it's according to the rules or not, what matters is that if you don't accept it, just do it. If something happens, your father will support you.
Emperor Xuanwu: You will never be able to get married if you continue like this.
Zheng Yuanshan: Don’t worry, Dad will find a son-in-law for you. At worst, you can go to Qingyun Temple and become the abbot.
........
The death row is the worst cell. It is dark, without any light, dirty and messy, and you can hear wailing from time to time.
Mo Qiu was curled up in a cell. As soon as he arrived here, he felt like he was being stared at by something, and the surroundings were so oppressive that he couldn't breathe.
He felt like a thorn in his back, listening to the wailing in his ears.
The prisoners in the neighboring cells stared at him like wild beasts, threatening him verbally from time to time.
There were mice crawling around him.
"Ah, I'm not wrong, I'm not wrong! I just used my daughter's skin and bones to make a lantern, what's wrong with that?"
"She is my daughter, her life belongs to me, so what's wrong with me using her skin?"
"........"
The prisoners in the surrounding cells were originally noisy and joking, but they fell silent when they heard his words.
One of them spoke first, spitting, "Damn it, I know I am a heinous criminal, I have committed murder and arson, and I know how to protect my own child. You are such a beast that you even spared your own daughter."
"That's right. He still dares to say that he is not wrong. He is worse than a beast."
"This is so new. Selling children is common, but this is the first time I've seen someone make his own daughter into a lantern and sell it. Hahahahahahahaha"
"Fuck, beat him up. I already know I'm not a human being, but this inhuman thing is saying it's right."
"........"
The jailer also came over and said angrily, "I heard that he also harmed many women, took them as concubines, and then skinned them to make lanterns."
Everyone was shocked. Tsk tsk, they were evil people in the first place, but now there was a wolf in sheep's clothing, trying hard to say that he would not eat sheep. It was really ironic.
Mo Qiu listened to their curses without any reaction. He just felt cold all over and was in a daze.
He seemed to see those people he had killed staring at him, with empty eyes and blood all over their bodies.
"Take your life"
"Come down and keep me company! I'm so cold!"
"Where's my face? Where's my skin? Have you seen my skin?"
