Do Not Offend the Reborn Wicked Wife-Chapter 128: Return to Your Ancestral Roots

What?

The ministers below were all taken aback. What request did he make? What did he write in his memorial? Your Majesty, please enlighten us!

Seeing the bewildered and confused expressions of the ministers, Qi Yun felt comforted. Is it really this gratifying to trouble and perplex others?

With an uplifted mood, Qi Yun said, "This person is not a local official. He has only been in the position for a month and already faced such a huge incident! But instead of being discouraged, he took the initiative, went deep into the mountain bandit lair, and, with the cooperation of his subordinates, eradicated the bandit nest. This shows both courage and strategy!

Knowing that he bears responsibility for this matter, he voluntarily requests to go to Xinan to prepare for the significant events that may occur next! Excellent, excellent indeed! What is this called? Responsibility! On the court, such responsible young men are so rare!"

"Your Majesty, we are flattered!"

The Emperor sighed casually, which ended up frightening the ministers. Your Majesty, do you mean to replace us all?

Currently, the princes are all vying for power, each cherishing their reputation. Who dares to confront the Emperor?

Someone cleverly shouted, "His Majesty is wise! Such a brave and resourceful person should be given a chance!"

"Indeed, this man managed to eradicate the bandit nest with a mere small county government. This shows his skills. Sending such a person to Xinan allows him to fully utilize his talents!"

"..."

The flattery flew around like boasting, with ministers who previously called for the Gaoyang County Magistrate to be punished changing their tune faster than flipping pages in a book!

While the ministers were praising the Emperor and the small county magistrate, in a corner, someone had a cold glint in their eyes.

He clenched his fists tightly in his sleeves, then released them.

He chuckled coldly, "Very well, off you go then! Ha ha ha..."

...

Li Qingmu didn’t know what was happening in the court, but he felt that the problem wasn’t significant.

"The Young Prince will exert influence, and you’ve already assessed the Emperor’s thoughts. As long as your memorial is presented, the matter will be settled."

Long Yue thought her husband was truly remarkable, having understood people’s minds to the extreme, even predicting the court debates.

"The Emperor is already at an age of destiny, how much longer can he remain on the throne? Ten years, twenty years? No one knows! But last year, he fell seriously ill, making many think he might not have long to live, so the battle for the throne began.

The Emperor, in his youth, followed the late Emperor into battle, he is inherently competitive. The Xiliang people getting an advantage once already made him stifled, he won’t allow the other party a second chance to gain an advantage!

Ha, most people on the court know his nature; as long as someone stands up to advocate for battle, he will agree. If no one speaks, he will do it himself. One side is the battle for the throne, the other is the war; it is a good opportunity to establish achievements. You say, should this battle be fought or not?"

Long Yue smiled, "It should be fought!"

"Yes, as long as the battle is advocated, the Emperor will surely be pleased to see my memorial. How could he refuse my request?"

Li Qingmu said smilingly, with one hand behind his back, standing tall, full of confidence.

Long Yue gazed at him, slightly mesmerized.

"Next, we just wait for the news!"

"Hmm!"

"Young Master, this is..."

Li Qingmu and Long Yue were talking in the gazebo in the Qin Family’s back garden, with Qin Wuyou beside them. Elder Qin had just returned from shopping outside, and since Li Qingmu had just brought Wuyou back, Elder Qin had never seen him before. Upon seeing the young man, he looked quite surprised.

"Elder Qin, take a good look at him!"

Long Yue pulled Qin Wuyou closer, positioning him in front of Elder Qin.

Elder Qin squinted his cloudy old eyes and then looked shocked, "This, this..."

His voice trembled slightly, and his body began to shiver, even rubbing his eyes with his hands.

Wuyou, unaccustomed to being stared at so intently, seemed a bit uneasy. If Li Qingmu hadn’t previously told him that this was the loyal servant who had waited for him for over a decade, he might have already greeted him with a punch.

"Elder Qin, you needn’t doubt, you aren’t mistaken!"

Long Yue said smilingly, since they were about to leave, they needed to settle many things. Ensuring Qin Wuyou’s recognition of his ancestry and entrusting the Qin Family Embroidery Workshop to him were the most crucial matters.

"How could this... be..."

Upon receiving Long Yue’s confirmation, Elder Qin was even more shocked, even stepping back.

"Elder Qin, be careful!"

Behind him was a step; one careless move, and he might have fallen...

Long Yue hurriedly went up to support him, gesturing for Qin Wuyou to come over.

"Elder Qin, to tell you the truth... my husband isn’t a descendant of the Qin family. The real descendant... is him, Wuyou, Qin Wuyou! I think you must have understood instantly upon seeing him? He resembles Mr. Qin so much from when he was young..."

"Wuyou... Wuyou..."

Elder Qin looked at Qin Wuyou, his lips quivering, his body’s trembling becoming more intense.

Indeed, he indeed resembled the young master back when he was young. When he saw him at first sight, he thought the old master had returned.

"What is going on?"

Elder Qin felt his mind was inadequate, looking towards Long Yue and Li Qingmu.

Li Qingmu slowly stepped forward, saying, "Elder Qin, my wife and I encountered trouble previously and could only borrow Young Master Qin’s identity to evade disaster. We thought of telling you the truth afterwards, but worried that you couldn’t bear the truth, we kept it a secret!

Honestly, if we hadn’t found Wuyou, I would have remained under Young Master Qin’s identity. Fortunately, heaven smiled upon us, and I found the real Young Master Qin at Heifeng Village! I’ve brought him back now, Elder Qin, surely you aren’t angry with me?"

"Elder Qin, it wasn’t our intention to deceive you!"

Long Yue assisted, and both of them gazed at Elder Qin sincerely. He observed them for a long while before suddenly letting out a long sigh, tears surging out once more.

"Master, Madam... this old servant has not let you down, has awaited the true young master. Haha, the heavens have eyes, the heavens have eyes..."

Elder Qin spoke with a smile that turned into a sob, kneeling on the ground, knocking his head towards the east.

"Elder Qin..."

Long Yue and Li Qingmu were both taken aback at this moment, realizing that Elder Qin had always known Li Qingmu wasn’t truly Young Master Qin yet chose not to reveal it, maintaining a delicate balance. What a wise elder!

Elder Qin continued to weep, but fortunately, after a quarter of an hour, his emotions stabilized. Long Yue hurriedly brought Wuyou over, "Quick, greet Elder Qin, Elder Qin..."

"This old servant greets the young master!"

Even before Wuyou could speak, Elder Qin bowed to him once more. Li Qingmu slightly nodded, gently patting Wuyou’s shoulder, and with a bit of emotion, he said, "Wuyou, recognize your ancestry!"
