After the rebirth, Lord Hou treats me like a treasure

Chapter 67
Zhao Heng knew very well how much Qi Moyuan valued his sister Qi Yining, and he still couldn't completely let go of the fact that Qi Yining was no longer there. When Qi Moyuan heard the news suddenly, could he face it calmly?
No matter how calm he is, it is impossible for him to say that Aning is Chen's younger sister so calmly.

Unless he really lost his memory.

"She vomited blood on the spot when she heard that you were killed." Zhao Heng stared into Qi Moyuan's eyes and said word by word.

Guilt and sadness flashed across Qi Moyuan's eyes.

"It's my minister's fault." Qi Moyuan said in a low voice, "Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

"She is very ill. No matter how the imperial doctor uses the medicine, her illness will not improve at all. The imperial doctor said that she is suffering from depression and has a heart disease that cannot be cured." Zhao Heng said, he knows what Qi Yining's heart disease is, better than anyone else. Because of this, he didn't want to see her, fearing that he would do something to her impulsively.

"A humble official deserves death." Qi Moyuan said.

Zhao Heng's heart surged with anger, "You really deserve to die! You shouldn't have sent the bad news, knowing that she cares about you the most... This brother, her health is not good, you deserve to die!"

Qi Moyuan's fingers trembled slightly, and he whispered guiltily, "I beg the emperor to forgive me."

Seeing that Qi Moyuan didn't have the cold arrogance and character he had before, Zhao Heng was even more angry, "Do you think that if I convict you, you can get back the Queen's life?"

"The death of a humble official a thousand times will not be worth the life of the empress." Qi Moyuan said.

Zhao Heng looked at Qi Moyuan in front of him coldly, feeling that this person had become very strange.In the court hall just now, he thought that Qi Moyuan was pretending to be timid on purpose, but now there are only the two of them left, there is no need for him to put on such an appearance.

He shouldn't be so indifferent to Qi Yining's death.

Qi Yining grew up in the Duke's Mansion, but she was not Qi Moyuan's biological sister. Every time Qi Moyuan defended Qi Yining, he would think that if it wasn't for his appearance, would Qi Moyuan not be reconciled to being just an elder brother?

However, this guess will never have an answer.

When he heard that Qi Yining had passed away, he even felt a little rejoiced. He would never have to know whether she regretted marrying him back then.

"You back down." Zhao Heng didn't want to see Qi Moyuan, "I will cut your title, there are too many doubts in the battle of Wangyue Valley, no matter whether you were framed or not, you have to be responsible for the [-] battle spirits."

Qi Moyuan lowered his head, "I accept the crime."

Zhao Heng stared closely at Qi Moyuan, and saw that his face was still sinking, so Chen Quan pushed him out.

As soon as he returned to Zhen Guogong's mansion, the imperial decree from the palace also arrived.

Qi Moyuan was demoted to Marquis, but the title of Zhen Guo was not taken away, but he also received the soldier amulet, and he was no longer a general from then on.

"Marquis of Zhen Guo, the emperor ordered you to recuperate well at home, and you don't have to go to court if you have nothing to do." Chen Quan handed over the imperial decree to Qi Moyuan, and the title of Zhen Guo still remained. In the future, Mrs. Qi will disappear, and the Qi family will fall into decline somehow.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Qi Moyuan took the imperial decree to thank him.

After sending off the palace servants who delivered the decree, the Qi family fell into a moment of silence.

"The truth will always come out, take good care of yourself." Mrs. Qi comforted Qi Moyuan.

Qi Moyuan responded lightly, "Don't worry, grandma."

Xiao Lian grumbled angrily, "This is a sudden disaster. The well-behaved Zhen Guogong's mansion has now become a Hou's mansion..."

Mrs. Qi gave her a stern look, Xiao Lian pursed her lips and remained silent.
