Chapter 113 Clearing Obstacles
Zhao Ying watched him leave, not angry because of Feng Yunsu's attitude, and walked towards her carriage with a smile on her face.

At this time, Zhao Liquan was sitting in the carriage.

Zhao Liquan slightly held his gray beard and looked at Zhao Ying, "Did you tell him? What did King Qi say?"

"Of course he disagrees." This result did not surprise Zhao Ying.

If Feng Yunsu really wanted to hand over his subordinates because of a moment of weakness, then he would look down on him. In that case, Feng Yunsu would not be worthy of being his opponent.

Zhao Liquan laughed, but there was a hint of darkness in his eyes.

Feng Yunsu's change did not know whether it was good or bad for them.

As soon as the Zhao family's carriage arrived at the door, Mrs. Zhao was already at the door. She was dressed in plain silk, except that she didn't have a hemp rope on her head to pay tribute to Zhao Kun.

As soon as Zhao Liquan saw her, his face suddenly darkened.

Zhao Ying helped Zhao Liquan go inside. Seeing that he ignored her, Mrs. Zhao quickly walked a few steps and knelt down in front of Zhao Liquan. "Father!"

Zhao Liquan looked at her with a sharp expression, "What do you want to do?"

Seeing his attitude, Mrs. Zhao couldn't help crying, "Father, my daughter-in-law wants to know how the emperor plans to punish King Qi?"

Zhao Liquan directly asked back, "Why punish King Qi?"

Mrs. Zhao looked shocked. The next moment, her voice rose several degrees, "King Qi is the murderer of my son, why won't he be punished?"

"The King of Qi said that the cause of Zhao Kun's death was abnormal and needed to be investigated in detail, so he cannot be punished for the time being. Mother, please do it."

Zhao Ying was just pretending, and Mrs. Zhao didn't need his support. She stood up directly and glared at Zhao Ying with red eyes, "It was his men who killed Kun'er. How else does he want to investigate? How else does he want to investigate? ?”

After saying that, before Zhao Ying could speak, Mrs. Zhao turned to look at Zhao Liquan again, "If my father is afraid of the royal power and feels that Kun'er is useless and it doesn't matter if he dies, then I can trouble my father not to meddle in other people's business, and my daughter-in-law also I won’t say a word, at worst, my daughter-in-law will knock on the imperial city gate and meet His Majesty in person."

This is a strong statement.

Zhao Ying looked indifferent, while Zhao Liquan's face was as gloomy as ink, and he said coldly, "Go back to your room."

Mrs. Zhao said firmly, "If my daughter-in-law doesn't come back, Kun'er will die in a pitiful manner. Naturally, a mother must seek justice for Kun'er."

Zhao Liquan didn't speak, and Zhao Ying didn't dissuade him, but at this time, someone came from outside.

After asking a few questions outside the door, the boy quickly trotted to Zhao Liquan and said, "Master Xiang, he is from the King of Qi's faction."

"King Qi?"

When Mrs. Zhao heard this, she became angry instantly, "Why did King Qi send people here? What does he want to do?"

The boy said truthfully, "Madam, the King of Qi sent me to do an autopsy on the second son's body."

Mrs. Zhao was like a thunderbolt, and she immediately shouted, "He wants to do an autopsy? Isn't he willing to break Kun'er's body into thousands of pieces?"

Zhao Ying said lightly, "Mother, the emperor has given permission."

When Mrs. Zhao heard this, her face became even more ugly. She pointed at Zhao Ying and said angrily, "Didn't you enter the palace? Why didn't you seek justice for Kun'er? Why did you let King Qi abuse my son like this?"

Zhao Ying said nothing. The boy walked up to Zhao Liquan and asked in a low voice, "Prime Minister, this man is already here. Do you want to let him in?"

"Don't enter!"

Mrs. Zhao said sternly, then looked at Zhao Liquan and Zhao Ying and said, "Since you are all afraid of offending King Qi, then you don't need to interfere in this matter. I will go to seek justice for Kun'er myself. I'll see who dares to move." Kuner?"

With that said, Mrs. Zhao was about to walk out, but Zhao Liquan ordered someone to stop her.

Mrs. Zhao shouted, "Father, what are you going to do?"

Zhao Liquan raised his eyes and stared at her with gloomy eyes, "You are very ill, go to Zhuangzi to take care of yourself." When Mrs. Zhao heard this, her face turned pale, "You want to put me under house arrest?"

"take away!"

Zhao Liquan ignored her at all and directly asked people to do it.

Mrs. Zhao struggled desperately, but she couldn't break free at all. Her confidants were also standing aside at this time, trembling and not daring to move.

"Zhao Liquan, you old immortal monster, you dare to put me under house arrest, do you think that my mother-in-law is dead?"

But after saying this, no one paid any attention to her.

Zhao Liquan was the prime minister of the court. Except for Feng Mingye, others were always afraid of him, and there was never a time when he was afraid of others.

What's more, Mrs. Zhao's natal family was weak a few years ago, and she had to rely on Zhao Liquan's influence to serve as an official in the court. Who dares to go against Zhao Liquan for a married woman?

Let alone being against her, even if Mrs. Zhao died, they would not dare to ask more questions.

Mrs. Zhao cursed, and the servants covered her mouth, locked her arms, and escorted her away like a prisoner.

After Mrs. Zhao was dealt with, Zhao Liquan's expression remained unchanged and he calmly said to the boy, "Bring her in for an autopsy."

After saying that, Zhao Liquan walked towards the study, followed closely by Zhao Ying. Neither of them cared about the autopsy, and they didn't find anyone to follow them. They seemed to be following the guests as they pleased.

Wu Zuo was taken by the servant to see Zhao Kun's body, and no one in the way stopped him.

In the study, Zhao Liquan stood in front of the window, with his hands behind his back and his back to Zhao Ying, "Ying'er, my grandfather has cleared away all the obstacles in the Zhao family for you."

Zhao Ying's face was expressionless, and his narrow eyes moved slightly. Was the obstacle his grandfather mentioned really his obstacle?
He has never regarded Zhao Kun and Mrs. Zhao as enemies, because that would only bring him down. His grandfather is just two eyesores, so how can he be himself?

Zhao Ying knew that he couldn't say this, but he didn't follow what Zhao Liquan said. He only said, "Zhao Ying listens to his grandfather in everything."

Zhao Liquan did not look back or answer.

……

"Did the Zhao family's autopsy go so well?"

When Gu Linqiao heard Feng Yunsu's words, a big question mark appeared in front of his eyes.

"Zhao Ying didn't stop him, and Zhao Liquan didn't stop him either."

Feng Yunsu nodded and handed her the cooling medicine in his hand.

Gu Linqiao really didn't want to drink these things, but since these were prescriptions prescribed by her grandmother herself, Gu Linqiao could only hold her nose and drink them all in one go.

"Eat something sweet."

As soon as the medicine went off, another sweet plum was handed over.

Gu Linqiao took it and ate it, and the taste in his mouth instantly improved by half.

Feng Yunsu added, "Mrs. Zhao was dissatisfied with Zhao Liquan and Zhao Ying and wanted to go to the palace in person to seek justice for Zhao Kun. However, Zhao Liquan sent her away directly on the grounds that she was insane."

Gu Linqiao asked, "Where to send it?"

"Anyone from the Zhao family who goes to recuperate is actually under house arrest. I'm afraid he won't be able to return to the capital in this life."

Hearing this, Gu Linqiao had to sigh that Mrs. Zhao's life was quite hard. Her only son was gone, and even she had to be sent away. What kind of place was this Zhao family? I just heard some things. It feels like people are being cannibalized in the house.
