Chapter 82
Taishi Chang was already old, and was almost knocked to the ground by Mrs. Li. Fortunately, Butler Chang had sharp eyesight and quick hands, and supported him, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable, and he would be shattered and fractured in minutes.

"You! You!" Taishi Chang was shocked by Xiao Li's violent uproar, pointing to Xiao Li's hand, his whole sleeve was trembling, he couldn't imagine that Xiao Li, who was usually gentle and obedient, would look like this, "You are simply a shrew, unreasonable, unreasonable..."

Mrs. Li didn't seem to think it was enough, so she slammed Grand Master Chang away again in resentment, thinking about going to the carriage ready at the door.

**
Forbidden City, Yongfu Palace.

It was lunch time at this time, and Emperor Yongjia happened to have lunch with Concubine Chang Gui in Yongfu Palace.

Suddenly, Xin Gui, the eldest maid next to Concubine Chang Gui, walked in, blessed Concubine Chang Gui and Emperor Yongjia, and said, "Your Majesty, your mother, Mrs. Li, asks for an audience."

Concubine Chang Gui frowned her beautiful Yuanshan eyebrows, then glanced at Emperor Yongjia at the side, and said, "Why is she here?"

Xin Gui shook his head, and only said: "Madam cried a lot, and she didn't explain clearly to the servant what happened." Xin Gui lowered his head and guessed, "The servant guesses it should be young master Chang's business."

Concubine Chang Gui was a little displeased, she didn't like the younger brother born to her by her stepmother, Xiao Li, and his stepbrother, relying on his status as the uncle of the country, often caused her troubles in Beijing.

But Emperor Yongjia is still in her palace now, in order to show her gentleness, generosity and understanding, she had no choice but to nod to Xin Gui: "Then please invite my mother in."

Emperor Yongjia was impatient to see his wife, but he hadn't finished his lunch yet, thinking that it would not be too late to leave after lunch, so when Mrs. Li came in, he saw Emperor Yongjia was there.

"See Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Imperial Concubine." Mrs. Li saluted.

Since Concubine Chang Gui decided to save face, she did so. She walked up to Xiao Li, helped Xiao Li up herself, and asked with concern: "Mother, what's wrong?"

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Li refused to get up, and knelt on the ground, with tears in her eyes, and said word by word: "Imperial Concubine, you have to make decisions for your younger brother!"

The corners of Concubine Chang Gui's mouth froze, thinking that her ineffective younger brother Chang Hui must have caused some trouble again, but since Emperor Yongjia was around, she couldn't get angry in person.So I could only say: "Mother, look at you, get up quickly and tell me, what's wrong with my brother, as long as I, as a sister, do what I can, I will definitely help!"

Concubine Chang Gui thought that she had already talked to this point, and that Mrs. Li should get up if she knew something interesting, but she didn't expect Mrs. Li to kneel down for a long time, looked at her with tears in her eyes, and choked up and said, "Your Majesty, you Brother, Chang...Chang Hui called...he was beaten to death!"

"What?!" Concubine Chang Gui was shocked, and even Emperor Yongjia, who was eating lunch beside him, put down his bowl when he heard that, and looked at Mrs. Li.

Concubine Chang Gui couldn't believe it, who in the capital would dare to kill Concubine Chang Gui's younger brother?So she quickly asked: "What did you say? Chang Hui was beaten to death?"

At this moment, she hoped that Mrs. Li had taken the wrong medicine. To put it bluntly, although she and Chang Hui were not close, he was still her brother by blood. How could a sister wish her brother to die unexpectedly?

But to her disappointment, Xiao Li didn't take the wrong medicine or say the wrong words, but nodded and said yes with sobs, and further said: "Chang Hui was beaten to death by Miss Qin of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, ma'am, You have to seek justice for Chang Hui!"

"Zhenbeihou's Mansion?" Emperor Yongjia suddenly said, he had some impression of Qin Fenghua, she was Qin Shuo's youngest daughter, he had married her to Prince Rong's son in order to win over Rong Wang, but now Rong Jing's son Rongjing has disappeared After death, Qin Shuo's daughter's marriage contract will naturally come into contact.

Emperor Yongjia remembered that Qin Fenghua was a pretty and gentle little girl, how could he get involved with Chang Hui and beat him to death?Isn't it funny that a little girl killed a grown man, Emperor Yongjia didn't believe it.

Although Emperor Yongjia didn't believe it, Xiao Li was absolutely sure, "Your Majesty, it was Qin Fenghua who cut off my son Chang Hui's arm and caused my son's death!"

Xiao Li knew her son's death, and it would be difficult to hold Princess Zhen Guo responsible, but she could still ask Qin Fenghua, a little noble girl, to pay for her son's life.

So she complained even more tearfully: "My son is kind-hearted. He heard that the Rongwang Mansion held a funeral today. He thought that he was a classmate with Rong Wang's son, so he went to the Rongwang Mansion to pay homage, but that Qin Fenghua was indiscriminate. He chopped up my son at the funeral, and even instigated the servants of the Princess Mansion to beat my son to death in front of the Rong Wang Mansion." The more Xiao Li said, the more sad she became, and the more she said, the more angry she became, "Your Majesty, empress! You have to do it for my son!" Make the decision, my son Chang Hui cannot die in vain!"

Concubine Chang Gui understood Xiao Li's words, that she wanted Qin Fenghua, the daughter of Marquis of Zhenbei, to pay for her son's life.

But Concubine Chang Gui thought about it, why would she not do what Xiao Li made a fuss about?At the beginning, her adopted son Yun Wang Li Yunzhou came to tell her that he was in love with Qin Fenghua, the daughter of the Marquis of Zhenbei, and begged her to persuade the emperor to marry him and Qin Fenghua after Qin Fenghua and Rongjing broke off the engagement.Concubine Chang Gui was quite happy in her heart that she was able to win over the influence of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, so as to add another strength to her emperor's future ascension to the throne.

But she didn't expect that the incident would happen later, and her adopted son was also abolished because of Qin Fenghua, so why didn't this make her harbor a grudge against the Zhenbei Hou Mansion.

So this time, Mrs. Li came to sue the imperial court. Taking this opportunity, she could also put eye drops on the Zhenbeihou's mansion, so as to drive a wedge between the Zhenbeihou and Emperor Yongjia.

So she looked at Emperor Yongjia, with a hesitant expression on her face, as if she was worried about something, and said: "Your Majesty, look at this Marquis of Zhenbei..."

Emperor Yongjia looked at her blankly, and Concubine Chang quickly said: "I mean, is there some misunderstanding in this? I believe that Miss Qin is not the kind of arrogant and wanton person. Your Majesty, look, can we Please ask Ms. Qin to come into the palace and ask what is going on, so as to clear up the misunderstanding." Concubine Chang Gui carefully scanned Emperor Yongjia's face, and said softly, "After all, Marquis Qin of Zhenbei holds a heavy army. It is your majesty's trusted minister, your majesty has always been sympathetic to his ministers, it is better to ask."

Emperor Yongjia naturally trusted Qin Shuo in his heart, but he couldn't discourage the Chang clan who worked for him, so he summoned the eunuch Wang Yan and ordered: "You go to Zhenbeihou's mansion, Xuanzhen Beihou's daughter-in-law enters the palace."

Wang Yan obeyed his orders and withdrew.

Seeing this, Concubine Chang Gui patted Xiao Li's hand hintingly, and pretended to comfort her: "Mother, I think there is some misunderstanding. Your Majesty is wise and will definitely give us an explanation."

Mrs. Li understood the hint in Concubine Chang Gui's eyes, so she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, was supported by Concubine Chang Gui to stand up, took advantage of the situation and sat down beside her, waiting for Qin Fenghua's arrival.

About a quarter of an hour later, Wang Yan came back. He walked up to Emperor Yongjia and replied in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Miss Qin is not in Zhenbeihou's residence at this time."

"Oh? Where?"

Wang Yan said calmly, "Miss Qin, in the Empress Dowager's Palace..."
