Qin Mo also found it strange. Although it might be a conspiracy, it was true that his second brother embezzled military funds.
No matter how much you plead, it's no use.
Qin Er had already revealed the truth to him at the border, and had come up with a plan early on: the only option was to sacrifice him to save the others.
"Why don't we summon her to the palace and find out the truth?"
Murong Yu said unhappily, "Qin Mo, she is saving your family, but you want to kill her!"
Is it appropriate to summon her to the palace at this time?
Qin Mo then realized that he intended to protect Yun Xiyue.
I don't want her to be targeted. If she were summoned to the palace at this time, the women in the harem would be so jealous that they would start having all sorts of wild thoughts.
Then the Empress Dowager and others all targeted her.
Yun Xiyue could indeed be killed by those women.
"It was my oversight."
"Go back first and let her go to Wanxiang Temple."
Qin Mo secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "Then, second brother..."
"An additional ten years in prison."
Qin Mo immediately dared not plead any further and quickly left.
"Wait, your Qin family must make up for the two million taels, otherwise I will have no choice but to issue an edict to confiscate your property."
Giving him a choice is already a blessing.
Two million taels of silver had long been squandered by the Qin family.
Where is he going to get two million taels of silver?
Murong Yu didn't care how he managed to raise the money.
Mistakes must be punished.
Qin Mo was at a loss after returning home.
Xiao Rongrong said, "Otherwise, I'll go borrow from the Yun family."
"Why would the Yun family lend us two million taels? That's no small sum. Even the Yun family might not be able to come up with that amount of money."
Xiao Rongrong felt that the Yun family definitely had the money, but Qin Mo was right, two million taels was not a small amount, and they might not be willing to lend it.
"What should I do?"
"The only option is marriage alliances."
Xiao Rongrong disagreed, "You want your son to marry someone from one of the three great families, but the Emperor might not agree."
“Not the three major families,” Qin Mo hurriedly replied.
Xiao Rongrong suddenly realized something, "Do you agree to Shao Yan marrying Xi Yue?"
Qin Mo silently rubbed his forehead. "Rong'er, no one in the entire capital dares to marry her, nor can they marry her. Shao Yan is even less likely to do so."
"Why? Do you care that she remarried? So what if she remarried? Xiyue is a million times better than those ladies from prominent families."
Xiao Rongrong thought Yun Xiyue was a good person. She had no problems with her character, was gentle, and was very capable. She could make money, manage the household, and remained calm in the face of trouble. She was also skilled in horseback riding and archery.
If her son could marry a woman like that, she would be at peace for the rest of her life.
Marrying a woman who knows nothing and only causes trouble would be a disaster.
Qin Mo was both amused and exasperated. He hadn't expected his wife to be so oblivious, failing to notice the problem despite having interacted with Yun Xiyue so many times.
"Because she is the emperor's woman."
Xiao Rongrong: "..."
"Your Majesty...Your Majesty...Does he love Xiyue?"
This shocked her. Murong Yu, a man who was not interested in women and whose mind was only on national affairs, had actually blossomed like an iron tree?
"Yes, I think I've fallen for him, but that man is too stubborn to admit it. But he's been protecting her for a long time. The day Yun Xiyue was tricked into taking the love potion, she met him in the palace."
Qin Mo has already investigated what the Shen family has done.
Xiao Rongrong knew this too.
Therefore, Yun Xiyue had long been the emperor's woman.
"Don't worry, the marriage I'm talking about is with Yun Xiaohan."
Xiao Rongrong immediately understood.
