Chapter 139 The Old Place

Shen Ying was ordered to chase Jiang Zhong, but found that he had neither left the palace nor gone to the Imperial Hospital to see his wife.

Instead, he skillfully changed into a eunuch's robe and sneaked all the way to the harem...towards the cold palace?

Thinking of the note he received this morning, Shen Ying's heart skipped a beat and he immediately blew a whistle into the air.

Several eunuchs with well-proportioned figures, as if jumping out of the cracks in the ground, came from all directions and saluted Shen Ying in unison...

Shen Ying learned from them that Concubine Xiao disobeyed the imperial order, changed into the clothes of a female official, slipped out of Qixiang Palace and went to the cold palace.

A terrifying guess suddenly came to his mind, and he immediately ordered several of his men to split into two groups, following Jiang Zhong and Xiao Gui respectively, and report their whereabouts to him at any time.

He quickly turned around and ran towards Longqing Palace. Xiao had repeatedly dealt with Princess Zhaoning. If she really did something life-threatening... he would never give her even a second to escape!

…

After returning to Longqing Palace, Shen Ying did not make any assumptions, but reported what he had heard and seen truthfully.

Not missing a single word.

Emperor Liang was extremely angry, but because the empress dowager was present, he did not lose his temper on the spot. He found an excuse and left quickly.

He and Shen Ying went straight to the cold palace, and following the instructions of the eunuch who was watching them, they climbed up to a roof ridge, lifted up the glazed tiles and looked down...

In the cleaned room, the man and woman hugging each other, aren’t they his beloved concubine and good friend! ! !

???

Jiang Zhong held Concubine Xiao tightly and refused to let go no matter how she struggled.

"Yuer, after five years, you finally agreed to see me! Do you know how much I missed you?"

"Let go! What time is it? You still have the mind to think about this?!"

"I'm in a difficult situation right now. Please cut to the chase. I have to go back quickly..."

"Yuer, I know I'm not young anymore and I'm useless to you. I can accept that you're tired of me and want to stay away from me."

"Ke Tongshu...you must save him!"

The intimate scene between Jiang Zhong and Concubine Xiao made Emperor Liang's blood boil!

His eyes were wide open, and he looked in disbelief at his good friend whom he had trusted for many years, and even the person he regarded as a mentor and benefactor. At this moment, he was like a sex demon, tearing his beloved concubine's clothes without any care and desperately demanding them.

Looking at the two people who were reluctant to accept and finally entangled with each other, Yun Xingxu suddenly felt that everything in his life seemed like a joke...

He felt inferior and angry, and he wanted to rush in and kill the ungrateful couple immediately!

But his remaining rationality told him to wait a little longer... The two of them had always been cautious, and they chose to contact each other again at this time after so many years. There must be other secrets that he didn't know.

Emperor Liang was so angry and ashamed that his whole body was shaking. He wanted to see how many times he could chop off their heads!

In the room, Jiang Zhong was so happy that he wanted to ascend to heaven. He didn't know that the emperor was watching him with a cold gaze that was as sharp as a blade... -`(▼皿▼)`

He hugged Concubine Xiao reluctantly and continued to talk to her about their old love.

"Yuer, you know, you are my first woman."

"Back in the Qiandi Residence, if I hadn't promised to secure a future for you and ensure a smooth life for you... I wouldn't have assisted that idiot Yun Xingxu!"

"My feelings for you have never changed!"

"Tongshu is very important to me. He and Yun Yi are twins. Just because he was born a cup of tea later than Yun Yi... One has a noble status and enjoys glory, while the other can only endure humiliation and become someone's consort..."

"Yuer, we as his parents owe Tongshu a debt... You are his mother, you can't just ignore him!"

“…”

boom!

This Jiang Zhong actually looks at him like this?

The fifth son, Yun Yi, is not his biological son?

He was wondering why, among his five sons and three daughters, Yun Yi was the only one with a pair of black eyes?

Is it really like this?

I see! !

Emperor Liang felt as if he was struck by lightning. He was so frightened that his body froze and he almost rolled off the roof.

Thanks to Shen Ying's quick eyes and hands, he caught him firmly.

When their eyes met, Shen Ying accurately caught a flash of murderous intent in Emperor Liang's scarlet eyes.

Serving the emperor is like serving a tiger. Shen Ying's understanding of Emperor Liang has long surpassed his understanding of himself.

In the blink of an eye, he quickly pulled out a flying knife from his sleeve and stabbed it into his mouth without thinking.

At the critical moment, Emperor Liang suddenly grabbed his wrist.

Shin Young's heart, which had been beating violently due to the sudden fear, suddenly sank to the bottom.

He saw something he shouldn't have seen today, but aren't there enough such dirty things in the palace?

There are even...

Let’s not talk about those things that are difficult to talk about.

Jiang Tongshu wantonly trampled on the dignity of the princes and princesses, playing with them in the palm of his hand, and made it known to everyone... Even so, he was still able to survive.

And now he can't even cut off his own tongue?

Oh……

Decades of companionship, countless lives saved...but the emperor was still unwilling to spare his life.

Well then!

He was not a good man, and he followed such a fickle master. He never thought that he would have a good ending.

Shen Ying closed his eyes, waiting for Emperor Liang to cut his neck with a knife.

But suddenly I heard a rustling sound...

He suddenly opened his eyes and looked into the distance following Emperor Liang's gaze.

When I saw little Tangbao riding... riding on Prime Minister Zhao's neck? ?

As he led hundreds of people stealthily towards them, his brows relaxed and he breathed a sigh of relief.

Son of a bitch!

Not only was his life saved, but it seemed his tongue and both hands were saved as well!

Princess Zhaoning is truly a lucky star sent from heaven and a living Bodhisattva!

When he returned, he secretly offered the princess a longevity tablet!

…

Shen Ying frowned again, hiding the joy in his eyes, and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, please calm down. I did arrange a lot of guards on the way here..."

"Shh-" Emperor Liang frowned.

It’s definitely too late to go down now.

But people found out that he, a great emperor, was lying on the rooftop catching someone committing adultery... How shameful!

No, how come that Xiao Yuntang is involved with Zhao Kangnian again?

Don't their two families have a blood feud? Didn't Zhao Kangnian often try to trip up Prince Qing and disgust him?

What were these people doing behind the scenes? Were they ganging up on him?

Before Emperor Liang could come up with a plan, this densely packed group of people, as if they had wings, surrounded the room they were in silently.

Driven by curiosity, Xie Yuanqian, who came with her, immediately stood up.

She quickly stood on a broken wooden chair, put her index finger to her lips, and signaled everyone to be quiet.

On the way, they caught a few palace guards who were on lookout, but unfortunately, before they could get any useful questions from them, they bit their tongues and committed suicide.

But what is certain is that in the room they are surrounding, someone is...having an affair.

Ha! Among this group of people, only Xie Yuanqian has the most noble status. She is the emperor's daughter-in-law!

This kind of meritorious service... this kind of thing of taking charge of the overall situation, naturally it has to be her turn!

Moreover, it was her own grandmother who arranged for her to come to the cold palace just now, so no one can steal the credit from her!

Seeing that everyone was cooperating and not saying anything, Xie Yuanqian curled the corners of her mouth.

So...very good!

Once she has established her authority and gained the emperor's appreciation, let's see who dares to laugh at her!

…

Everyone was quiet not because of Xie Yuanqian, the clown, but because they heard voices in the room.

"When did I say I don't care about him anymore?" Concubine Xiao frowned, her tone full of unconcealable irritation.

"After all, that child is a piece of my flesh and blood. If I didn't want to take care of him, why would I risk going on a date?"

"I'm under house arrest now, and the Emperor won't come to my palace at all. What can I do? Even if I wanted to plead for him, I can't do anything!"

(⊙⊙)

Everyone had the same expression, but their thoughts were different.

What's going on?

Is this another time of passively participating in catching an adulterer?

Tsk tsk tsk! I wonder which green bitter melon it is this time...

Ha! It actually worked!

It seems like all my hard work this time was really worth it! I'll have to give Princess Zhaoning some extra gift money later!

Many others felt inexplicably panicked, their expressions gradually changing from shock to fear.

They tried to get out secretly, but it was like being trapped in a ghost wall, and they couldn't leave this place no matter what.

Just when some people were curious about who the adulterer was, the man in the room spoke.

"Good Yue'er, don't be angry. I don't want to force you, nor do I mean to blame you."

"But I begged the dog emperor today, and he is now determined to kill our Tongshu..."

"You know Yun Xingxu's temper. Tongshu is still injured. We have to find a solution quickly. There's no time to waste!"

Jiang Zhong was anxious. He knew that he had to race against time to save Jiang Tongshu.

The Emperor is in a very good mood today because he is dining with the Empress Dowager. Today is the best time to plead for mercy and save people!

[Wow wow wow…]

After hearing this, everyone realized that the adulterer was Jiang Zhong!

Those who don't know the truth are extremely curious. They don't know which concubine in the palace Jiang Zhong is having an affair with.

What a courage!

Many people couldn't help but look at Madame Chiang with sympathy...

Madame Jiang was the first to hear a terrifying truth from the conversation between Jiang Zhong and that slut...

No! Impossible...

Mrs. Jiang felt a chill down her spine as she took a breath.

She tried hard to suppress the urge to rush in and find out what was going on. Her face turned pale as she waited for the person inside to continue.

“Got it!”

"You saved the Emperor's life, and you've loved only your wife your entire life. Tell me...if you lost your wife, would the Emperor still have the heart to watch you lose your son?"

After a brief silence, Jiang Zhonglang's laughter was heard...

"Yes, no one knows that the same book is..."

What happened to Jiang Tongshu? What happened?

Everyone was anxious, but they heard Jiang Zhong change the subject, "Yes, Tongshu is my only son, my only son!"

"I'll get his cheap mother to commit suicide when I get back. If she refuses, I'll kill her myself!"

Concubine Xiao followed up with, "Remember to have your wife leave a blood letter for the emperor before she commits suicide, saying that she is willing to exchange her life for Tongshu's."

"My Yue'er is really smart! The Dog Emperor has always treated me as a close friend. He certainly can't bear to see me become a lonely person!"

"By then, our son will be fine!"
