Jiang Kangan also looked at her.
In public, Jiang Kang'an didn't think Xiao Chuji would be stupid enough to poison him, not to mention, Zhiyu didn't say anything.
Jiang Zhiyu sighed softly, without looking at Xiao Chuji, and directly stuffed a pill into Jiang Kangan's mouth.
"Of course I'm afraid of being poisoned to death by you, little bastard."
!!!
"Cough cough cough," Xiao Chuji's pupils trembled violently, and he almost choked to death on the tea. He turned his head to the side and coughed violently.
Damn it, how did she find out?
And, you said it so directly?!
Can something like poisoning be said openly?
Due to her identity, even if she found out, she should keep it in her heart and deal with it by herself!
Just say it so bluntly?
Not playing by the rules at all!
Xiao Chuji was devastated, and Jiang Kangan was no less so.
He held the teacup and looked at the tea rippling in the cup with a very complicated expression.
Is Xiao Chuji crazy? In public, with so many people present, he dares to attack me?
After Jiang Zhiyu fed Jiang Kang'an the antidote, she stared at him accusingly: "I told you a long time ago to be more careful. He's a pervert, and his brain circuits are different from those of normal people."
"If you use normal thinking to guess a perverted idea, you're bound to lose."
Xiao Chuji's eyes dimmed slightly, and the guard behind him warned: "Offending the prince is a capital crime!"
Jiang Kangan's eyes glared: "Who are you? Do you have the right to interrupt here?"
Guard Zhang wanted to continue speaking, but no sound came out when he opened his mouth. He pointed at his throat in panic, his face flushed red, and looked at Xiao Chuji pleadingly.
Xiao Chuji's expression suddenly changed. His eyes staring at Jiang Zhiyu seemed to be covered with a layer of frost, and his eyebrows were tightly furrowed.
Jiang Zhiyu knew what he was going to say. Before he could open his mouth, she took a sip of tea and said calmly, "Shut up."
"you!"
Xiao Chuji's face was full of anger, but underneath the anger was more of surprise and suspicion.
How did she do that?!
I didn't even notice it at all!
His proud poison technique now seemed as childish as a child's play in front of Jiang Zhiyu. He could see through it at a glance. What was even more terrible was that he couldn't figure out how Jiang Zhiyu had poisoned him...
Xiao Chuji gritted his teeth, and the murderous intent in his heart burst out.
Jiang Kang'an tapped the table twice with his fingertips, calling Xiao Chuji back to his senses: "Now it seems that His Royal Highness the Second Prince is not here to reminisce about the past. In this case, I will not disturb you anymore."
He stood up and was about to leave, and Xiao Chuji did not stop him. At this moment, a soft female voice rang out: "Your Highness, the Second Prince, this is the sachet you left behind..."
She raised her head and saw Jiang Zhiyu, and was slightly stunned.
Jiang Zhiyu seemed unaware, glanced at her, and then looked away.
Xiao Chuji's eyes had been wandering between her and Jiang Kangan since she came in. Seeing Jiang Kangan's indifferent eyes and Xiurong's appearance, he looked like he was looking at a stranger, and his brows were wrinkled into the shape of a "chuan" character.
Jiang Kang'an passed by Ji Xiurong without stopping, and Jiang Zhiyu followed closely behind him.
After getting on the carriage, Jiang Kang'an relaxed a little. He whispered to himself, "Why do I feel like there's something wrong with the way Xiao Chuji looked at me the last time?"
Jiang Zhiyu leaned on the cushion and complained in his heart.
"Of course. Let's see if you react to that face."
Jiang Kangan: ???
My elder brother suffered an unprovoked disaster. Xiao Chuji's Bai Yueguang loved my elder brother. Bai Yueguang's life was hanging by a thread at the time. Even the gods couldn't save her. Xiao Chuji, that madman, was determined to put the blame on my elder brother. After Bai Yueguang died, he began to retaliate against my elder brother.
"But what did my eldest brother do wrong? Xiao Chuji thought it was my eldest brother who betrayed Bai Yueguang, but my eldest brother clearly didn't even know Bai Yueguang's name. 】
Jiang Kangan: “…”
Jiang Kangan was filled with mixed feelings and couldn't find a word to describe his current mood.
Xiao Chuji...
Jiang Kangan murmured silently in his heart.
…
When it comes to imperial power, even the most ordinary days will be turbulent.
The next morning, Jiang Zhiyu went to the imperial study to complain at the appointed time.
The emperor was flipping through the untitled book in his hand when he saw Jiang Zhiyu rushing in aggressively. Without even hiding the book, he simply slammed it down on the table. Before he could say anything, Jiang Zhiyu, with a firm gaze, spoke first, "Your Majesty, I have something to report!"
The emperor was slightly startled.
Fuping stood aside, his hands trembling slightly.
He looked at the aggressive Jiang Zhiyu below and couldn't help but say in his heart: Ancestor, even if it's a big deal, you have to pay your respects first. His Majesty is already in a bad mood by barging in like this, aren't you walking into trouble?
He was anxious and kept making gestures to Jiang Zhiyu.
The emperor said nothing about his little annoyance. He just looked at Jiang Zhiyu and said gently, "What's the matter? What kind of injustice have you suffered? Is it from the Hanlin Academy or the Censorate?" He paused and gave Fu Ping a look, "Sit down and tell me slowly."
Fuping understood and walked down to bring the pastries to Jiang Zhiyu. Jiang Zhiyu picked up a piece and took a bite. The emperor and Fuping both breathed a sigh of relief.
Jiang Zhiyu: “…”
There's nothing weird about it. Never mind.
"Your Majesty, I wish to impeach Jiang Zhaorong, accusing him of being unworthy of the position of Prime Minister."
Jiang Zhiyu swallowed the pastry in his mouth with a look of grief and anger on his face.
emperor:"?"
"The rumors circulating on the streets yesterday about my mother poisoning the old lady in the Prime Minister's Mansion should have reached His Majesty as well."
The emperor nodded, and because of this matter, he also looked for Jiang Zhaorong.
"I heard that the real murderer has been sent to the Dali Temple, hasn't he?"
Everything was done by that concubine. What does it have to do with Jiang Zhaorong?
"Your Majesty only knows one side of the story," Jiang Zhiyu licked her lips. "Although this was done by Madam Du, the person who poisoned her was someone else." She paused and confirmed, "It was the current Prime Minister, Jiang Zhaorong."
!!!
The thought of a son poisoning his mother is horrifying just by hearing about it.
Fuping's hand holding the pastry shook and he almost dropped it to the ground.
The emperor was slightly startled and his expression became more serious.
"Is there any evidence?"
"Of course," Jiang Zhiyu took out the jade bracelet. "This is the evidence they used to accuse my mother that day. I went back last night and carefully examined it. This poison is extremely rare, called Spring Drunkenness, and it's a chronic poison. I can guarantee that no one in the Prime Minister's Mansion, except Jiang Zhaorong, can obtain this poison."
"Furthermore, this poison requires an initiator. It must be the blood of an adult male. Only when taken together with the poison can it take effect."
"In the Prime Minister's Mansion, the only adult male who has constant access to the old lady is Jiang Zhaorong."
