Chapter 685: The merits are offset by the faults
Emperor Jingyang thought about this and said directly: "My beloved concubine, what you said is not without reason. The case three years ago was closed by the Dali Temple. If it is brought up again, it will definitely have a bad impact."
"As for the Night King and the Night Princess, I will order them to be released from the clan residence later, considering that they contributed money to save people and their merits will be offset by the prison break."
"This matter ends here, and no one should mention it again."
After Emperor Jingyang finished speaking, he stood up, flicked his sleeves, and walked away with big strides.
Concubine Li looked at his leaving back and her expression turned very ugly.
What she was most worried about happened.
Before, she was afraid that Emperor Jingyang would listen to the people and release Luo Junhe and Ji Yuntang from the clan house.
So, she dressed up carefully, ran to Emperor Jingyang, and whispered in his ear.
I thought it was a foregone conclusion that Luo Junhe and Ji Yuntang would be demoted to commoners.
But at the critical moment, Emperor Jingyang suddenly changed his mind.
How could Concubine Li not be angry?
Luo Qingge looked at her dark face and sneered.
"Are you disappointed to see my third brother and sister-in-law being released by our father?"
"What a pity! Even God is helping them. Some people are destined not to get what they want."
Concubine Li: "..."
Concubine Li: "!!!"
Of course she was disappointed, but more importantly, she was disappointed with Emperor Jingyang.
This man always refreshes her worldview and cognition.
Every time she thought the matter was settled, Emperor Jingyang would always change his mind again.
Concubine Li gritted her teeth and said, "Princess Nine, why do you have to be so sarcastic in front of me?"
"The emperor has released my son and daughter-in-law. I am so happy that I can't wait to be disappointed."
Having said that, Concubine Li could not help but imagine that the reason why Emperor Jinyang suddenly changed his mind might be related to the case three years ago.
He probably started to doubt something in his heart.
Concubine Li was also afraid that Emperor Jingyang would discover clues and re-investigate the matter and involve Prince Nan Xiao.
If that's the case, then the loss would outweigh the gain.
Thinking of this, she looked at Luo Qingge hatefully, turned and left.
Luo Qingge made a face at her back and despised Concubine Li in her heart.
Just when she was about to hold Xie Liuzheng's hand, she caught a glimpse of a golden figure out of the corner of her eye.
Her eyes lit up instantly, and she immediately turned into a butterfly and ran over happily.
"Mother, I miss you so much!"
Seeing her running so fast, Xie Liuzheng hurriedly chased after her and reminded her: "Hey, Qingge, run slower, be careful of the baby in your belly." Just at this moment, Luo Qingge ran in front of the queen.
After hearing what Xie Liuzheng said, the queen grabbed Luo Qingge's hand.
She asked in surprise: "Qingge, is what Master Xie said true?"
"Are you pregnant?"
Her eyes fell on Luo Qingge's flat belly, and her heart was pounding wildly.
Luo Qingge nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, mother, I am pregnant. The imperial physician said it has been a month."
When she said this, there was a smile on her face that was as bright as spring breeze.
Once upon a time, Luo Qingge never thought that she would meet love.
But after she married Xie Liuzheng, she realized that in addition to family and friendship, love is also so wonderful.
Especially now that she is having children with him, she has an indescribable sense of happiness in her heart.
The queen was also very excited. She had not expected that she would become a grandmother just two months after Luo Qingge's marriage.
Thinking about the fact that this is my daughter’s first pregnancy, there are many things she doesn’t understand yet.
The queen hurriedly grabbed Luo Qingge's hand and told her a lot of things to pay attention to after pregnancy.
Xie Liuzheng stood quietly by and listened without going up to disturb them.
His gaze was always on Luo Qingge, and there was a hint of tenderness in his eyes.
After the Queen finished explaining the precautions, she remembered the purpose of her visit to the Imperial Study.
Seeing that Duke Rong and Xie Liuzheng were both here, she asked, "Duke Rong and Prince Xie, are you two here also for the matter of King Ye and Princess Ye?"
Xie Jinrong nodded and said respectfully: "As your Majesty Queen said, I am here because of the matter of King Ye and Princess Ye."
He guessed that the queen must have come here because of this matter.
Ji Yuntang and the Queen have always had a good relationship, and they communicate frequently on a daily basis.
The Queen certainly didn't want Ji Yuntang to be demoted to a commoner by Emperor Jingyang.
Thinking of this, Xie Jinrong continued to say to the Queen: "I think Her Majesty the Queen also came here because she heard the news that something happened to the Night King and the Night Princess."
"Please rest assured, Queen. The Emperor has just issued an order to release Prince Ye and Princess Ye from the clan residence. I am preparing to go pick them up."
The queen was delighted when she heard these words, and asked, "Duke Rong, did the emperor really say that he wanted to release the Night King and the Night King's Concubine?"
After she learned about this, she also wanted to go to Emperor Jingyang to plead for Ji Yuntang and Luo Junhe.
But she searched the palace for a long time and couldn't find any trace of Emperor Jingyang.
Now that she heard that he was in the imperial study, she hurried over.
Xie Jinrong said: "It is absolutely true. We were all in the imperial study and heard it."
Luo Qingge pulled the queen's sleeve and said, "It's true, mother. What my father-in-law said is right. Father really agreed to let my third brother and sister-in-law out."
"Why don't we go pick them up together!"
Naturally, the Queen would not refuse Luo Qingge's proposal.
She heard the news that Luo Junhe's leg had healed, and for some reason, she wanted to see him very much.
Soon, the group arrived at the gate of the clan house.
Xie Liuzheng went forward to ask, then came back and said: "The servant said that the Night King and the Night Queen will be out soon, let's wait a little longer."
They had not been standing outside the door for long when they saw two figures walking out.
It was Luo Junhe and Ji Yuntang.
Seeing them, Xie Liuzheng hurried to greet them.
"Your Highness the Night King, Princess Night, are you all right? Did they do anything to you?"
In front of so many people, he was embarrassed to call Ji Yuntang "sister".
Ji Yuntang smiled and said, "Ahe and I are fine. We are sorry to have worried Dad and Brother."
"Thank you so much for today, otherwise Ahe and I wouldn't be released so quickly."
She already knew that the reason why she and Luo Junhe were released was because Xie Liuzheng and Xie Jinrong obtained evidence of the smuggling case that year.
Helped Luo Junhe and An Qi Longyin clear their grievances.
Xie Liuzheng said: "It's not all our credit, but also the credit of the people of the entire capital. They are basically speaking up for you and fighting for justice."
