Chapter 568: Taking advantage of a burning house
Translator: 549690339
Emperor Yong Ping didn’t really like Cai Qi, but he was born into an aristocratic family. His talent was average, and his popularity was average. He just wanted to balance the aristocratic families and not let one family dominate.
Furthermore, Emperor Yong Ping and the Cai family’s seventh son had a childhood friendship. Thinking of the past, he thought of Cai Qi.
Who knew that Cai Qi would be useless. Before he could be put in an important position, he exposed his own shortcomings and let his wife provoke Xie Xian first.
Emperor Yong Ping didn’t think that Xie Xian was using his power to bully others. Everyone would think that this was the fault of the Cai family’s mistress. He didn’t believe that Xie Xian deliberately distorted the truth just to frame his aunt.
They were all true relatives, so he couldn’t get them to join him. There was no hatred or resentment. He was also brainless to make enemies everywhere.
In front of the civil and military officials, he directly issued an edict to dismiss Cai Qi.
Cai Yuanshi, the matriarch of the Cai family, had been reflecting on her mistakes in seclusion for three months.
A woman from the Caiyuan family was lifted high and lightly lowered. If there was any heavy punishment, it would not be the Emperor’s turn to personally issue an edict. If word got out, it would be a joke.
Cai Qi was about to go crazy from anger. Well, not only did the duck that was in his mouth fly away, even his official position was taken away.
However, he couldn’t flare up in court. When he returned to the residence, he had people lock Cai Yuanshi up in the backyard. She didn’t even want to see him. No matter how much the eldest son of the Cai family and Cai Erlang, whose buttocks were swollen and half pulled, begged, it was useless, especially Cai Erlang. Cai Qi felt pain in his liver when he saw him. He kicked Cai Erlang’s buttocks, causing him to cry out in pain.
If you didn’t cause trouble, would I have made such a big fool of myself?!” Cai Yuanshi had been strong and domineering for her entire life, causing Cai Qiluo to lose face. How could she hold it in?”Don’t vent your anger on your son. It’s clear that you couldn’t beat Xie Xian and got someone to squeeze you out of the court! What bullsh * t Lady Xiao? I’m not targeting her. What is she?” “I think she’s just pretending. Her family is taking advantage of the situation and targeting our Xie family.”
“If you count the days, you’ll be pregnant right after you get married. Isn’t it the twelfth month of the lunar month when the child will be born? Even if it was three to seven days earlier, it was still considered premature labor?” “They sure know how to pour shit on people!”
“Shut up!” Cai Qi couldn’t listen anymore. What was the use of mentioning small-flower now? He had been stripped of his official position! “If you hadn’t brought your servants to the Xie family in such an aggressive manner, they would have had a chance to accuse you even if they wanted to!”
That’s why I said that their family did it on purpose. Why did I go to their house? Wasn’t it because Erlang was beaten up by Jiankang Ling?”Cai Yuanshi glared at him angrily, causing the groaning Cai Erlang to go silent. She then said,”
“Think about it, how could such a thing be brought to the Jiankang order? Isn’t it Xie Xianbao’s official?”
“One thing leads to another. He’s deliberately setting you up.’Cai Yuanshi snorted coldly.
Design what?
If Aunt Yuan couldn’t figure it out before, she understood it after hearing Cai Qi’s loud curses after entering the mansion. It turned out that the emperor had appointed Cai Qi as the dean of the court. This was a ready-made reason.
That was according to the position of the chief justice of the Supreme Court. “He clearly knew that the emperor favored you, so he deliberately set a trap for you…It’s even a chain set!”
When Cai Erlang heard this, he stopped groaning and jumped three feet high.””Xie Xian is so sinister! I said, all the right and wrong in the world have always been resolved through negotiation. How could they fall out like this? They were still relatives, so they shouldn’t be too black-hearted.”
Cai Qi:” Don’t just listen to rumors. Xie Xian wants to be a judge? You really dare to say it, and your son really dares to believe it.”
She said no, but her body was very honest. Her eyes kept moving. Others might not know, but Aunt Yuan knew him well. She was full of bad ideas.
“Why wouldn’t he dare? He was just in his early twenties, yet he dared to drag his entire family to bet on the current emperor. Without him, who knew who would be in charge of the sky now? Moreover, he wasn’t qualified. Wasn’t he still the third son of the Xie family?”
There’s no need to think about the second son of the Xie family. Also, the second son of the Xiao Family, Censor Xiao, you should know how much Xie Xian treasures the eldest daughter of the Xiao Family.”
Originally, Cai Qi was already convinced by Auntie Yuan’s words. The more he listened, the more reasonable it sounded.
As a result, he gave Aunt Yuan a cold glance.’”‘You have to go along with her? If you have a brain and don’t go to the Xie family to cause trouble, even a trap won’t be able to catch you. I told you to calm down!”
If you had told me earlier, I would have admitted it even if I had to be a turtle! It’s obviously a good thing. Why are you hiding it from me?! “Aunt Yuan was also furious.
“Forget it, forget it. It’s already like this. What’s the use of telling you this?” “You really have a good nephew!” Cai Qi gritted his teeth so hard that his face was deformed. He hated it too much. The duck that was in his mouth, the delicious meat, flew away! It was all because of Xie Xian!
“I don’t dare to take that nephew!”
“-we can’t just leave it like this!”Cai Erlang shouted.
Cai Qi raised his leg and kicked his butt.”Go to the Xie residence and shout. At that time, you will hear it even more clearly!”
No matter how foolish Cai Erlang was, he knew that his father didn’t really want him to shout, so he quickly covered his butt and hid behind him.
Cai Qi was so angry that he was foaming at the mouth when he saw his wretched character. He was at least 27 or 28 years old. How could he be so unruly?
“Get lost!”
“Get out!”
Not only Cai Erlang, but Cai Qi also chased out all the maids and manservants in the courtyard.
Then, he walked to Cai Yuanshi’s side with a dark face and a poisonous look in his eyes.””The emperor has already issued an edict. You should stay in the backyard.”
“It’s just that we still have to reconcile with the Xie family in the future. We can’t just break up like this!”
Cai Yuanshi was stunned for a moment before she suddenly figured out what was going on.” You want to?”
“We’re relatives after all. We can’t just break up like that…This was an accident a misunderstanding. If it needs to be fixed, it still needs to be fixed. Beat the old woman who bumped into Eldest Lady Xiao twenty times and chase her out of the Cai family. The emperor has spoken, so we have to give an explanation.” “That’s my dowry nanny!” “No!” Cai Yuanshi vetoed.”
Cai Yuanshi clenched her fists and almost couldn’t help but slap her old face.””Then you can change to another one. Don’t tell me the Xie family will be pestering an old woman endlessly and come out to identify who it is?”
“Idiot!”
With that, he flicked his sleeves and left. “A bunch of idiots!”
A smart person like him really couldn’t bring up a whole family of burdens burdens.
He thought to himself,’If Cai Yuanshi is still useful, I will kill her first after she makes the chief justice leave!’
Xie Xian, if he didn’t make him collapse, then he, Cai Qi, would take Xie Xian’s surname!
tttttt
On the other hand, Censor Xiao, who had fought with Cai Qi for three hundred lives in the court, had finally caught Sikong Xiao’s eye and accepted his invitation to drink at the Censor’s residence. Although his second brother was not good at literature or martial arts, and sometimes he was not clear about it, at least he still recognized his family..
