Chapter 468 Father, I will not live any longer!!

The Queen was speechless.

Several old officials from the Ministry of Rites were named by Prince Xiaoxiang. They looked at the Empress and then at Emperor Xuan, not daring to say a word.

Isn't this like putting them into the frying pan?

It was obvious that Liao Jiu openly disobeyed the order, and now the Queen Mother was asking soul-searching questions, and Prince Xiaoxiang was trying to take advantage of the situation and divert the essence of the matter, dragging them into the water as well. They were not stupid.

It’s right to keep quiet.

When the Queen Mother spoke up, she was rebuked by Prince Xiaoxiang. She learned her lesson and stopped speaking easily.

Princess Xuanxiu below burst into tears, "Father, I will not live any longer!!!"

Having said that, she covered her face and ran out crying.

Several guards quickly followed him out.

Emperor Xuan was also greatly humiliated. Among all the ministers, Liao Jiu's behavior was too ruthless!

Forget about Liao Jiujue, and now Jiang Lianzhu pops up!

The two of them were equivalent to being slapped in the face.

The veins on his forehead bulged, his blood pressure soared, and he felt unwell. "Okay, okay, okay, Liao Jiu, Jiang! You're all fine! Come, take these two away and give them a hundred lashes each. I will grant their union and let them go to the underworld together. When they die, I'll give them a ghost marriage!"

Everyone present was terrified and silent.

Some people are extremely anxious.

For example, the Zhou family of Prime Minister Zhou.

Liao Jiu is their family's proud grandson, who they have watched grow up since childhood...

Dabao, Erbao, Nianbao and Sanzi are also anxious!

Erbao wanted to rush out, but at this time, if he rushed out, he could not help or say a word. He could only keep winking at Dabao anxiously.

The Lin family was also anxious.

The Lin family was worried about Jiang Lianzhu. If the Xuanhuang got angry, both of them would be sentenced to death. Jiang Lianzhu couldn't be in any danger! Lin Ziyi was particularly anxious. He was confused just now. Why were Jiang Lianzhu and Liao Jiu mixed together?

Now Emperor Xuan was going to sentence Jiang Lianzhu to death. He woke up from his dazed state and wanted to speak for Jiang Lianzhu, but Steward Lin came behind him and covered his mouth.

Liao Jiu spoke up, "Your Majesty, I am willing to take all the beatings and beg Your Majesty to spare Jiang. It is you who are guilty of disobeying Your Majesty's order; this has nothing to do with Jiang."

Xuan Huang picked up a large apple and threw it at Liao Jiu, "How dare you make demands on me! I've given you the nerve! Drag them away and beat them all! Beat them to death!"

The apple hit Liao Jiu's head, but Liao Jiu was fine. The apple was smashed and rolled away.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Please take care of yourself."

Liao Jiu pleaded in vain, "Wife, are you willing to die with me?"

Jiang Lianzhu looked at him affectionately and said, "I do."

This was like adding fuel to the fire, and it amazed everyone.

These two people actually didn't care about anything and were really going to die!

It’s a pity that such an outstanding young talent like Governor Liao has to die here today.

And Jiang is also a courageous person. Is there really such a love in this world that can lead to death for both parties?

The two of them held hands and prepared to go out to get the board.

Prince Xiaoxiang spoke again, "Your Majesty, my mother has offended you. She is indeed guilty and deserves death, but I, your humble nephew, beg you to show mercy and spare my mother, Jiang, this time. My sister, Nanbao, is still young and sleeps with you every night. She cannot be separated from her. I do not ask for Governor Liao's life, but only for my mother's. Xuan Xi is willing to exchange it for the token of immunity from death."

As he spoke, he took out a death-free token.

This was exactly what Emperor Xuan gave to Dabao as compensation last time.

The last time Emperor Xuan asked Dabao if there was anything else the Prince Xiang's Palace needed, Dabao said that he didn't ask for anything and also refused the opportunity to enter the palace to accompany the prince to study and get close to Emperor Xuan.

Later, Xuanhuang gave Dabao a token of immunity from death.

No one knows, only Dabao himself knows.

So that no matter what serious crime Dabao commits in the future, he can use this to pay for his life.

Unexpectedly, he actually took it out to exchange for Jiang's life.

Jiang Lianzhu was extremely surprised!

She didn't even know that Dabao had a token of immunity from death.

And gave it to her!

In an instant, hundreds of episodes were resonant.

This kid is worth raising!

It’s worth it!

She feels very relieved to have such a cub, and all her efforts for the cub are worth it.

Just as Jiang Lianzhu was about to say no, she was willing to die with Liao Jiu, Liao Jiu pinched her fingers.

He whispered, "Xuan Huang won't kill me, don't worry, just save your own life first, and we'll plan for the future."

"Are you sure?" Jiang Lianzhu answered softly.

Liao Jiu nodded slightly.

Jiang Lianzhu came to her senses. It turned out that she was the only one in real danger at the scene. Xuan Huang wanted to find a way out. Liao Jiu was an important official and many things were in Liao Jiu's hands. Liao Jiu would not die. If he really took out his anger, he would only kill her. She was now useless to Xuan Huang. Baihua Tower had collapsed and Xiangwang Mansion had been rehabilitated. She was no longer of much use to Xuan Huang.

Xuan Huang's expression was stern and murderous. "Xi'er, are you sure you want to use the Death-Free Token to exchange for her life?"

"Sure. I beg Your Majesty to forgive my mother. Xier and the other two no longer have a biological father and mother. Now our adoptive mother treats us as her own children, and we treat her as our biological mother. If we lose ours again, I'm afraid my younger brothers and sisters will be even more sad." Dabao replied.

Xuan Huang closed his eyes and sighed.

The Empress on the side was ready to make another move, "Then Prince Xiang, do you know about Jiang's affair with Liao Jiu?"

Dabao said seriously, "To answer your Majesty, Governor Liao and our mother are in love with each other. The word 'hookup' is inappropriate. After Governor Liao was saved by our mother, he also asked a matchmaker to come to our house to express his gratitude and propose marriage. It's just that no one knew about it. The three of us brothers and sisters can testify that there was a matchmaker and an engagement, but because of the drastic changes at Baihua Tower, the marriage has not yet taken place."

After this explanation, everyone could understand a little bit.

Jiang Lianzhu even admired Dabao a little.

This child speaks without making a single mistake.

Compared with her and Liao Jiu, the two parties involved, he is more thorough.

I guess he has been thinking a lot in private about how to smooth things over if something goes wrong between the two of them.

This guy... makes Jiang Lianzhu ashamed.

At this point, I have been reduced to relying on my cub for protection.

Love really clouded her mind, she was so ashamed.

The Zhou family members turned around and immediately echoed, "Thank you, Prince Xiaoxiang, for speaking out for Liao Jiu and his family. I'm deeply grateful. Now that you mention it, I know a thing or two. My disappointing grandson Liao Jiu brought up the matter with me after surviving a disaster and returning to the capital. We all disagreed, especially his mother, who wouldn't approve of the marriage. So we suppressed it and didn't let anyone know, fearing that his mother, Madam Zhou, would fight him if she found out. However, the marriage proposal did happen. There was a matchmaker and an engagement, and it was above board."

After saying this, Duke Zhou knelt down and said, "This old minister is also wrong. This old minister should have reported this matter to the emperor long ago. Otherwise, there would not have been such an outrageous scene today. This old minister was wrong, and I beg the emperor to punish me."
