The Emperor Has An Illness CH 36-61 (END)

Chapter 36.1

Second Master Liao?

That is her father.

Liao Qing Qing asked anxiously, "What happened to Second Master Liao?"

He Xiang stammered, "Say... Say it's-"

"It's what?" Liao Qing Qing unconsciously raised her voice.

"That the Second Master is corrupt, takes bribes and that he engages in factional activities in pursuit of personal gains."

Corruption and bribery?

Engages in factional activities in pursuit of personal gains?

Liao Qing Qing possessed the original owner's memory and knew Second Master Liao's character very well. They were weak, incompetent and afraid of the Eldest Master Liao. However, they were not greedy people.

Last year, when Noble Lady Liao lost proprietary in front of the Emperor, Eldest Master Liao approached them. They tried to intercede for Noble Lady Liao through her, and they wrote to her right away.

They wrote three letters consecutively.

And sent a silver cheque.

After she firmly refused, they did not intercede for Noble Lady Liao again.

The silver cheque was deliberately returned to Eldest Master Liao.

If the Emperor had not given the Second Master Liao a promotion, Ji Shi would not have written to her, and the content of this letter was all for her sake, thanking the Emperor for his kindness.

It was apparent that they were content with their life ahead of them.

How could they be corrupt and take bribes?

How is it possible to engage in factional activities for personal gains?

So why are there charges of corruption, bribery and factional affiliation?

Someone framed them?

Yes!

Someone framed them!

The purpose of the false accusation is... her?

Liao Qing Qing's body shuddered, and she looked at He Xiang in disbelief.

He Xiang said, "I heard that the Second Master has been taken into custody."

"Taken into custody?"

"Yes."

"Who arrested him?"

"This maidservant doesn't know."

"Where is the Second Madam?"

"This maidservant doesn't know."

Liao Qing Qing was a little flustered. She put down her brush, got up and walked out of the study. She saw Chang Momo from Empress Dowager's palace coming over when she reached the corridor.

Chang Momo?!

Liao Qing Qing's heart tightened.

Empress Dowager has heard about the matter of Liao manor, right?

She suppressed the fluster in her heart and received Chang Momo.

Once she knew that Empress Dowager had summoned her, she hurriedly changed into a plain dress and followed Chang Momo to Shouxi Palace. As she stepped into the Empress Dowager's hall, she turned her head to find the Empress Dowager offering incense.

Her feet automatically stopped.

Chang Momo said, "Lady Xi of Bright Countenance, wait here for a while."
