Chapter 1267: Terrible Fix (1)
Qi Xiuyuan still treated Mu Yangling like a child. Not only did Mu Yangling feel depressed, but the officials were also speechless.
At her age, how could she still be considered a child?
However, Qi Xiuyuan ignored their gazes and continued to teach Mu Yangling a lesson in front of everyone. "You’ve been mischievous since you were young. I thought that you would be more stable after marrying Haoran, but who knew that you’d still be so mischievous after becoming the mother of a few children? The Crown Prince and Wenjin are both smart and promising talents. Don’t let them become naughty as Haoran under your guidance. Otherwise, I’ll directly order them to stay in the palace and not allow you to teach them anymore."
These teachings sounded a little intimate and felt like something that should be said in private, but no one felt that it was inappropriate for Qi Xiuyuan to say it at the court meeting.
Everyone could see that the Emperor was protecting Mu Yangling and the two children. No matter how much they said today, it was because they were "mischievous" and innocent; what they said could not be taken seriously.
After leaving the Imperial Court, they were not to pursue what was said and done today.
The ministers looked at each other and felt that this was a good idea. The changes in the official system that Queen Consort Rong proposed were too drastic. Every time there was a revolution, a group of people would be eliminated or even die. Who knew if they would become one of those?
What’s more, after the reform of the official system, there were more restrictions on officials. Removing the restrictions for civilians to sue officials was actually the most unimportant change proposed. Thus, the officials were naturally glad to be able to pretend that nothing had happened today.
