The emperor glanced at Shang Xingchen and said lightly, “You say it all.”
Shang Xingchen stepped forward and bowed to Qi Shi, and told Qi Shi in detail what happened in the temple.
Qi Shi changed from initial surprise to shock, and then knelt on the ground and said to the emperor, “Emperor, are there any misunderstandings?”
The emperor glanced at Shang Xingchen and asked, “Are you sure it is Mrs. Qi?”
“Yes, the reason why Mrs. Qi came to Puning Temple to find Yun Qing was for the previous teahouse.”
Shang Xingchen looked at the emperor and said in a humble and arrogant manner.
“This, I will ask my inner son to enter the palace to find out.”
The emperor nodded, and then the little eunuch beside him rushed out in a hurry.
After waiting for about half an hour, Mrs. Qi walked in with Qi He An and Qi Yingping and a man dressed in by a young man that Gu Yunqing had never seen before.
Shang Xing subconsciously blocked Gu Yunqing, and Mo Li glanced at Mrs. Qi with no expression on his face.
“Woman Lu Lin Dai has met the emperor.”
Mrs. Qi’s original name is Dai Tianshu, and she is the eldest daughter of the Lu Lin Dai clan. The Dai clan was nothing among the aristocratic families. However, since Mrs. Qi married Qi Shi, Qi Shi began to make many great achievements, and the Dai clan has also risen. Now those who look down on Dai clan should also greet each other when they see the Dai clan.
Because Mrs. Qi helped a lot on the battlefield and even saved Qi Shi many times, the late emperor specially awarded a first-class imperial edict. There were no five in the dynasty, and Mrs. Qi was one of them, so when introducing herself, there was no need to be named as a husband before.
In addition, many of the children of the Dai family went to the border and joined the Qishi Sect, and for a time they were able to compete with other centuries in the dynasty.
