After Breaking Off My Marriage, I Became A Powerful Minister’s Treasure Chapter 210 - Hit the nail

Chapter 210: Hit the nail

Liang Youxiao wasn’t concerned about this.
“If she’s capable of doing those things herself, she’s the one who’s embarrassing the royal family. What has it got to do with us?”
Liang Mingcheng was tempted to get a whip. “Bastard, I’m going to whip you today.”
It was not that he was against his son helping his friend, but he felt that his son was too reckless.
Liang Youxiao was brave enough to voice his thoughts directly. “Go ahead if you want to whip. You’d better whip me to death.!!
“I may not be like others, but I’m loyal. Whoever bullies my friend is bullying me.
“Father, our family’s surname was given by the emperor. We can indeed keep a low profile when it’s time to do so, but we can’t keep pretending as the Liang’s grandsons!”
Liang Mingcheng was so angry that he picked up the teacup and threw it at him. “Unfilial son, you are an unfilial son.”
Liang Youxiao had no guts and evaded the topic. “Father, you’re not young anymore. Why are you still so angry? !”
Liang Mingcheng felt that if he eventually left the world, it would be because his evil son angered him to death.
The others watched this father and son in a heated conversation in attention.
Apart from being loyal to his friends, others felt Liang Youxiao was hedonistic and did not care about the consequences.
Who knew that Old Master Liang would suddenly add, “Let him go.
“He stood up for his friends and not asking the Liang family going against the royal family.
“Youxiao is right. Our Liang family is living in the public administrator house.
“We can do this. There’s nothing to be afraid of.”
From the emperor’s point of view, it was not a bad thing for the officials and their families living in the imperial court to have shortcomings.
Moreover, it was rare for a child to be loyal to his peers.
This was quite good.
Liang Youxiao smiled and gave him a thumbs up. “As expected, you can’t catch old birds with chaff. You are my mighty grandfather!”
Old Master Liang snickered and said, “Get out quickly!”
Liang Youxiao chuckled and left.
After he left, Liang Mingcheng looked helplessly at Old Master Liang. “Father, you’re spoiling Youxiao too much.”
The others also felt the same way. Old Master Liang was too biased.
He glanced at his sons. “You guys don’t understand what it means to be sincere in exchange for a sincere relationship.”
His sons sighed, he was just biased, what did he mean that they didn’t understand.
Liang Mingcheng believed that his youngest son was so disgraceful because his parents spoiled him.
He felt helpless, but at the same time, he also had an indescribable sense of appreciation.
Even though his son was not in the right frame of mind, he still maintained a pure heart, which was not bad.
In the Fei family.
Old Master Fei was a civil official and did not like to play Mahjong, so his family members were all in their own courtyards.
When Fei Yuzhe heard the news, he immediately left the mansion.
He went to his circle of scholars and told them about this matter in anger.
Educated youth at this age were quite proud and unyielding.
They were very disgusted by such things.
Thus, they wrote articles to ridicule this matter, and very quickly, this spread among other scholars.
The third prince’s concubine and the Fu family, along with the third prince, had their reputations damaged.
At this moment, Xiao Hanzheng had already returned to the residence with his teacher.
Mr Hou’s people also came to report this matter.
Xiao Hanzheng’s eyes were immediately covered with a layer of ice.
That crazy woman actually dared to scheme against his little wife like this.
This was a big problem.
He asked Mr Hou, “Teacher, I heard that Yushi Wu is sick and hasn’t gone to court for a long time?”
Mr Hou was stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted to what his little disciple wanted to do. “Indeed, this is a persistent problem. When the weather is cold, he coughs badly.”
He said meaningfully, “If anyone can cure or alleviate his illness, he will definitely repay this favor.”
Yushi Wu was an old official that was in service since the late emperor’s reign.
He was stubborn yet upright.
The late emperor had once doted on that prince at the fief, and he even intended to make him the crown prince.
Yushi Wu stood out and criticised the late emperor fiercely.
He was determined to maintain the orthodoxy of a legitimate heir to the throne.
Because of this matter, he even bumped himself at a pillar in the palace to court his own death.
However, he was lucky to survive this injury.
Yet, this caused the former emperor a headache.
After the new emperor ascended to the throne, he had great respect for Yushi Wu.
If anyone dared to bring this matter to the imperial court, Yushi Wu would definitely not give up.
Xiao Hanzheng suppressed the ruthlessness in his heart and nodded with a calm smile on his face. “Then I’ll make a trip to Yushi Wu’s residence.”
Mr Hou nodded. “Go ahead. The imperial court will definitely be very lively tomorrow.”
The third imperial consort had gone too far.
She was so vicious in wanting to ruin the innocence of his student’s wife.
He could not swallow this anger.
In a while, he would go and visit a few of his old friends.
After Xiao Hanzheng left the house, he went to visit his people in the capital first before going to the Wu residence using his identity as the divine doctor’s disciple.
Many families in the capital did not expect such a small matter to cause so much of a stir.
So many people actually stood up to defend a mere scholar and his village wife.
Shi Qingluo did not know that everyone had gone to cause trouble because of her.
Sitting in Xi Rong’s bedroom, she had not even finished drinking a cup of tea and it was her turn to see the emperor.
In the administrative hall.
Shi Qingluo entered and bowed first. “Greetings, your Majesty!”
The emperor said, “No need for formalities!”
So many people knew about what had happened earlier, so of course the emperor was aware too.
When Xi Rong first entered the palace to meet him, he guessed that she was here to complain on behalf of Shi Qingluo.
However, he did not expect Shi Qingluo to be the one wanting to see him.
He thought that Shi Qingluo wanted to use her credit of offering the seeds to request for his third sister-in-law to be punished.
Actually, when he first heard the news, he was also very angry.
His third sister-in-law was simply too much.
Shi Qingluo had just come to offer the seeds and was already humiliated by others.
How would the officials and commoners think?
Moreover, even if she wasn’t the person who offered the seeds, his sister-in-law shouldn’t have done such a vicious thing.
However, in order to protect the royal family from further humiliation, he wasn’t prepared to publicise this matter although he intended to punish Fu Wenzheng.
Now that Shi Qingluo had suddenly came to the palace, it seemed like she was going to cause a ruckus.
This gave him mixed feelings.
Indeed, he did not like it when someone push his luck.
However, he could not blame Shi Qingluo.
After all, she was the victim.
If she was just an ordinary village woman, then her purity would be ruined.
The rest of her life would go down the hill after such humiliation.
Who would have thought that Xi Rong would say that Shi Qingluo was here to offer the recipe.
This surprised the emperor, but at the same time, he felt that this little girl was not simple at all.
So he immediately let her enter the administrative hall.
He looked at Shi Qingluo and asked gently, “I heard from Rongrong that you wanted to see me?”
Shi Qingluo took out a few pieces of paper from her sleeve. “Your Majesty, I suddenly remembered that my master left a recipe for ironmaking. I wrote it down and would like to offer it.”
The emperor was stunned.
He thought it would be another agricultural-related recipe, but he didn’t expect it to be for ironmaking.
He was an ambitious emperor with intentions to expand his territory, so he couldn’t do so without weaponry.
Moreover, now that Daliang had troubles within and outside the palace, it was only a matter of time before the fief rebelled.
Moreover, the Ge kingdom was eyeing them covetously, so war was inevitable.
He had secretly sent his people to source for iron ore to make more weapons.
Therefore, Shi Qingluo’s recipe had hit the nail on his head.
