Quick Wear: I've never been a good person

Chapter 614: The Foolish Woman Who Fakes Her Death for a Man (21)

"Hurry up and tell me, what happened?"

Xile finally told the whole story, and the emperor was overjoyed to hear that Shuangshuang was pregnant! This was his first grandchild.

But when he heard that Bai Wanting actually insulted his eldest son, he was so angry that he smashed the teacup in his hand with a bang.

"What a great Bai family! What great upbringing! Yao Fugui!"

"The slave is here!"

"Go, pass on my order! Bai Haopeng is incompetent in raising his daughter, and he must be dismissed and investigated!

The Third Prince's Consort Bai Wanting was disrespectful to her brother and sister-in-law, and was slapped thirty times and demoted to a lowly concubine!

"The slaves obey the orders!"

Then, without looking at the imperial concubine who was anxiously trying to plead for mercy, he took Li Xiangyu's hand.

"Don't be afraid, Yu'er. Father is here. He will avenge you!"

Li Xiangyu sobbed and nodded obediently, "Thank you, father!"

The imperial concubine watched helplessly as the father and son left her palace hand in hand.

He felt a darkness before his eyes and was filled with resentment. It was clearly the emperor who gave such a woman to his own son, but he wanted his son to bear the consequences.

She didn't mention it at all. She was the one who contacted Bai Wanting first and wanted her to be her concubine.

When he returned to the Qinzheng Hall, Li Xiangyu had already been coaxed by the emperor.

At this time, he was making his request to the emperor, "Father, I am going to be a father soon. You must go to the Ministry of Works and urge them to speed up the construction of the palace.

Otherwise, by the time your lovely granddaughter is born, I won’t even have a place to stay.”

The emperor finally managed to coax Li Xiangyu, so he immediately agreed to his conditions with a smile.

"Okay, okay, I'll send someone to the Ministry of Works right away to urge them to do it.

Don't worry, I'll let you live in the new house before your son is born."

Unexpectedly, these words made Li Xiangyu glare at the emperor unhappily.

The emperor looked at him in surprise, "What's wrong, Yu'er?"

"Father, it's not a son, it's a daughter!

This time I will definitely give birth to a little Shuangshuang who looks exactly like my sister Shuangshuang."

The emperor felt upset. What a fool! Who in the royal family doesn't want to have a son, especially the eldest son and grandson?

Forget it. I can’t explain it to him clearly anyway, so I can only respond with a smile.

"Yes, yes, yes, yes, it's your daughter, my dear granddaughter!"

Li Xiangyu finally became happy, "Father, I'm going to be a father. You'd better prepare those midwives and wet nurses for me as soon as possible."

The emperor's face froze. Wasn't this the Queen's responsibility?

But looking at his son's expectant eyes, he could only nod helplessly.

"Okay, I'll give the order right away and have them do it for you."

Then he asked me as usual, "Is there anything else?"

Li Xiangyu nodded, "Yes!"

The emperor regretted in his heart that he should not have asked such a question.

But he said, "Then tell Father what's going on quickly."

"Father, I am going to be a father, but I have nothing to do and I can't earn any money. How can I support my precious daughter in the future?"

This is really a big problem, but I’m not worried about Li Xiangyu getting into trouble.

What I’m afraid of is that he won’t get into trouble, but will be bullied and come to my house crying every day.

After much deliberation, we finally decided to arrange him into the Ministry of Industry.

"Well, my prince, your palace just needs people from the Ministry of Works to help you rest and recuperate.

It just so happens that you are supposed to check the progress every day.

How about you just take up a position in the Ministry of Works, so that you can rest and recuperate in your palace openly? What do you think?"

"Then...will I get a salary if I go to the Ministry of Works?"

"Don't worry, of course there is."

Li Xiangyu was instantly happy when he heard that there was work to do and money to be made.

"Father, I still have to tell Mother the good news, so I'll take my leave now."

The emperor was stunned. "You didn't tell the queen that your princess was pregnant."

"I forgot. I originally wanted to tell Mother, but when I returned to the palace, I just wanted to find Father."

These words pleased the emperor to a great extent, so he chuckled and gave orders to Yao Fugui.

"Go and take out 5 taels of silver from my private treasury and give it to your prince. This will be used to support his daughter."

"Thank you, Father! Thank you, Father!

Li Xiangyu, who had money coming in, became very sweet-mouthed and even held the emperor's arm tightly.

This made the old father's heart, which was called a kind father, even softer.

The queen also learned from others that Shuangshuang was pregnant, and she said three good words in a row.

When he saw Li Xiangyu, he praised him again and again.

Li Xiangyu was puzzled. "Your Majesty, it's not me who's pregnant. Why are you praising your son? You should be praising my sister Shuangshuang."

The Queen smiled and said, "Your mother will naturally go and praise your sister Shuangshuang.

But you also deserve praise. If it weren't for you being so capable, how could your princess get pregnant so quickly? "

"Yes, my son is very good. He is very good."

Li Xiangyu's IQ was fixed at childhood, so his every word and action reveals innocence and naiveté.

Here, the third prince received the news that the emperor slapped Bai Wanting and demoted her to a lowly concubine.

He instantly became so angry that his face turned green!

Although he did not want to marry her, his father demoted his new wife to a concubine on the first day of their marriage, which made him lose all his face and dignity.

Bai Wanting didn't expect that just by whispering this complaint, she would end up being demoted to a lowly concubine.

He sat dejectedly on the ground, wanting to cry but unable to.

Seeing all the guests pointing and whispering at her, she was afraid that it would also implicate all the sisters in the clan.

At this time, she didn't know that her good father had been demoted to his official position and had to go home to eat his own food because of his casual words.

If I knew, I would definitely regret it.

However, the emperor's punishment went far beyond this.

The eunuch who announced the decree took out a board from his sleeve and said to Bai Wanting.

"Concubine Bai, bear with it!"

After saying that, he slapped her hard in the face.

After being beaten with dozens of boards, Bai Wanting's face was already broken and bleeding, and her beautiful face was disfigured.

After the eunuch left, Bai Wanting, with a frail face, begged the Third Prince to find a royal physician for her.

It was a pity that the Third Prince was disgusted with her for bringing shame upon himself, so he gave the order directly.

"Drag her into the cold courtyard at the westernmost end and have someone keep an eye on her. Don't let her wander out!"

"Yes, Your Highness!"

So Bai Wanting and her maids and servants entered the Third Prince's residence full of anticipation, but they were all put in solitary confinement on the first day.

Judging from the gloomy face of the Third Prince, I’m afraid that the day of his confinement will seem like a long time away.

Since Bai Wanting is already tied to the Third Prince, both of them have to take action on some things.

One night, the Bai family was visited by a thief, who discovered a shocking secret.

Although the thief was idle and did not work properly on weekdays, he still had a chivalrous heart in his bones.

So he told the story of the stolen things and the discovery of the Bai family's underground treasure house.

It was packed in a bundle and quietly placed on the desk of the Yingtian Prefecture Governor.
