Chapter 402 Leak?
Inside the house, the queen was in high spirits, eating snacks and drinking tea comfortably. She was not in a good state as the royal confidant said. When she saw the confidant coming in, she said calmly;
"How to say?"
The confidant smiled and said;
"Demoted one level, fined one year's salary, confined for one year..."
The Queen snorted;
"It's a bargain for him..."
"That's fine. After all, the Seventh Princess is here. We should give the Buddha some consideration.
If the Seventh Princess's father was punished too harshly, it would definitely affect her, so the Queen only demoted him by one level.
Besides, only a few of us know about this. If the punishment is too severe, it will definitely attract the attention of others..."
The emperor's confidant paused when he spoke, looked at the queen, and blinked...
Seeing this, the queen raised her lips and nodded in appreciation;
"You should do this! Be secretive and don't let anyone find out..."
"Yes, Master..."
"As for that traitor, find a time to get rid of him..."
"Okay, Master, I will definitely get it done..."

On the other side, Huangfu Xinyue and his son were playing Gobang. After hearing about Che Guijun's fate, they looked at each other and couldn't help but smile.
After receiving another message from the secret guard, Huangfu Xinyue thought for a moment and decided to help the queen again.
He whispered a few words in the secret guard's ear, and before leaving, he reminded her to be careful and not be discovered.
Father Yue asked curiously;
"What other ideas do you have?"
Huangfu Xinyue smiled mysteriously;
"Give the Queen Mother, the Empress, and Che Guijun some more fun..."
Hearing this, Yue'e's father quickly looked around, and seeing that Gong Nan was not here, he whispered;
"Why did you involve your mother? Aren't you afraid that she will find out?"
Huangfu Xinyue also whispered;
"Royal father, don't worry! I just sent someone to pass on a message. They can't find anything on me..."
Father Yue stretched out his hand and touched Huangfu Xinyue's forehead;
"Have you forgotten? Che Guijun was just like you before, full of confidence..."
"Oh! Royal Father, can't you expect me to order something good?"
"I'm worried about you..."
"I know. I'm grown up now. I can handle these things. You and your sister can just enjoy your life in peace!"
Hearing this, Yue'e's father's eyes turned red and he said distressedly;
"Yes! You have grown up and it is time for you to get married.
I'm sorry for you. I've delayed you for so long. Other people's children can already run and jump, but you are still seeking benefits for me and my sister..." (;′??Д??`)
Huangfu Xinyue stepped forward and hugged Yue'e's father and said;
"Royal Father, I did all this voluntarily. Don't blame yourself. You gave birth to me and raised me. You treat me well and I treat you well. This is what I should do..."
The more sensible Huangfu Xinyue is, the more his father blames himself. In the end, the father and son hugged each other and burst into tears...
Yue'e's father suddenly remembered something, squinted his eyes and asked Huangfu Xinyue;
"I remember you said before that you had someone you liked. When will you bring him back for me to see?"
Hearing this, Huangfu Xinyue paused in wiping her tears, blinked her innocent eyes, and said with a guilty conscience;
"Royal Father, I say...if...if the person I want to marry already has six husbands, would you object?"
"What did you say?"
Yue'e's father asked in a sharp voice.
"Royal Father, please keep your voice down, my ears are going deaf..."
Huangfu Xinyue scratched his ears and frowned.
Yue'e's father asked again uncertainly;
"What did you just say? Say it again..."
Huangfu Xinyue pursed her lips, looked at Yue'e's father seriously and said;
"It's the same thing. She's already had six husbands and twelve children..."
"She had six husbands?"
"Yes! All six of them were married..."
Yue'e's father was stunned, full of disbelief, and murmured;
"All six were married..."
After a moment he asked again with wide eyes;
"Why? Why are all six married? This is impossible. I have lived to such an old age.
I have never heard of a man marrying six husbands. Don't women usually marry only one and take the rest as concubines?
How can someone marry six? How? Does her family agree? Does the law agree?
Hearing this, Huangfu Xinyue was also stunned by the question. That's right! Why were all six of them married?
He hadn't noticed this problem before, he just knew that they had a good relationship, he liked her, and he envied them...
After thinking about it, Huangfu Xinyue said uncertainly;
"Maybe, she likes them all!"
"How could anyone like it? Brother Yue, don't be fooled...
Besides, you are the noble fifteenth prince of Shuifan Kingdom. You can marry a lord without any worries, so why do you want to be a concubine?
If your mother knew you were doing this, she would be unhappy..."
Huangfu Xinyue curled her lips and rolled her eyes;
"She has many things to be unhappy about, and this one of mine is not the only one..."
"You like her so much that you must have her?"
When talking about Ji Xingle, Huangfu Xinyue blushed slightly, nodded shyly, and looked out the window;
"Well, originally I planned to work hard for my mother in exchange for the right to not marry.
I didn't expect to meet her halfway. She is very nice and gentle, although sometimes a little overbearing.
But, she is very kind, and you may not believe it, Your Majesty.
She has many businesses in the four major countries, and rarely hears of anyone looking for trouble or causing trouble.
Even in remote areas of our country, if you mention her name in a crowd, someone will recognize her.
Not only is she rich, powerful, and capable, she is also kindhearted and a good woman who loves her husband and takes care of her family.
As long as he knows her, there is no man who doesn't want to marry her..."
The more Huangfu Xinyue spoke, the angrier Yue'e's father became towards this stranger. He didn't think Huangfu Xinyue's words were exaggerated.
Because he believed in Huangfu Xinyue, he was not a person who followed the trend blindly and had no judgment.
On the contrary, if one can get his approval, then this person must be really excellent...
The father and son discussed that they would meet with Ji Xingle when they had time, and asked Huangfu Xinyue to write a letter to Ji Xingle to ask for his opinion.
Huangfu Xinyue had no choice but to agree to this request and wrote a letter to Ji Xingle in front of Yue'e's father to invite him...
At night, the secret guard brought good news to Huangfu Xinyue, and all plans went smoothly.
The Queen informed their supporters of what the former Emperor had done to the concubines and the royal heirs.
The Queen also notified the Taifu and the others, but Huangfu Xinyue informed them in advance and told them not to rush to come forward tomorrow.
After all, the Queen had deliberately concealed this matter. If the Queen had not forced her, she would not have intended to punish him too severely. After all, Che Guijun was the biological father of the Seventh Princess.
But if this matter is raised by civil and military officials, it will be different...ˉ\_(ツ)_/ˉ
