Just when the atmosphere in the hall was stiff and solemn, Chu Qi, who had come back to his senses, suddenly knelt down in front of Lu Liangwei, "I have committed an act of misconduct, please ask the empress to hold me accountable."
When Jill saw this, she felt anxious, "Xiao Qi, this is my fault..."
"Jier, don't plead for me, it's my fault." Chu Qi interrupted her.
Lu Liang sneered slightly, "Chu Qi, Ji'er is ignorant. You are so much older than her, don't you understand? She is doing nonsense, and you let her do it? No matter what the reason is, I am very angry, and it is difficult to forgive you. .”
She would not object if her children wanted to fall in love, but it would be difficult for her to accept it if they broke the rules before marriage. After all, the children were still young and had not yet grown hair.
"I know, please punish me." Chu Qi also knew that he had done something wrong and did not want to defend himself.
After saying this, he kowtowed slightly to Lu Liang.
Seeing him like this, Lu Liangwei felt very sad.
After all, Chu Qi is the same age as her and they have known each other for so many years. She also knows his temperament very well.
Although he followed Long Yang, he rarely knelt down to salute, let alone kowtow to her like this.
He has always been a somewhat arrogant person.
But at this moment, all his arrogance was torn apart and crushed.
Jill's face was full of tears. She couldn't sit still for a long time. She got up and knelt on the ground, shouting loudly: "Mother, Xiao Qi is really not to blame for this. It's all my fault. I seduced him..."
Lu Liangwei couldn't bear it any longer and raised his hand. He was so angry that he wanted to slap her, but when he saw her face full of tears, his heart softened and he didn't do it after all.
"Jill, is this what you, a girl who has not yet left the government, should say?" She put down her hand and looked at her sadly.
"Mother, Xiaoqi and I have already been married for a long time, and I am already his wife!" Jill lowered her head and said in frustration, "He didn't bully me, I forced him to."
"Jier, don't talk nonsense. It has nothing to do with you. Don't talk." Chu Qi took her hand and scolded her in a deep voice.
Lu Liangwei was stunned, "What do you mean? What do you mean you have got married? When did it happen?"
Jill pushed Chu Qi's hand away, "Xiao Qi, I know you think about me in everything, but the responsibility for this matter lies with me, and I can't let you bear it alone."
Chu Qi frowned, "But..."
Lu Liang said in a low voice, "What's going on?"
"Queen Mother..." Ji'er grabbed her clothes, "Don't blame Xiao Qi. If you want to punish me, just punish me. It's my fault."
Lu Liang sighed slightly, pulled her up, and wiped her face with a handkerchief, "Don't cry so much. You will only make me more sad. No matter who is right or wrong, Xiao Qi is a man after all. As for the current result, he should bear everything instead of hiding behind you, and you should not always want to plead for him. Since you are pregnant now, sit still and be careful of fetal movement. "
Jill shook her head, "No, Queen Mother, I deceived Xiao Qi. When I learned the truth, I couldn't think about it anymore. I didn't want to see my father again, and I even had the idea of leaving. But I selfishly wanted someone to follow me. Xiao Qi’s child, that’s why he’s...”
Needless to say, Lu Liangwei also guessed what was going on.
She fell silent.
After a long time, he let out a long sigh and said, "That's it for now. Xiao Qi, you get up first."
